htaccess?

[strongdong]

I want to allow hotlinking for some domains but block hotlinking for all others for .flv files...anyone know how to do this? antihotlinking.com does not seem to work

First you need to make sure apache (if you're on a linux server) was configured with RewriteEngine on. If it is, then do a search on google for RewriteEngine and you'll get tons of info on how to stop hotlinking.

Depends on are you going to have a white list or a black list?


In any case, here is mine:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?rhinosthumbs.com(/)?.*$     [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?rhinoslinks.com(/)?.*$     [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?americastgp.com(/)?.*$     [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?gofuckyourself.com(/)?.*$     [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.+)?yahoo.(.+)(/)?.*$     [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.+)?google.(.+)(/)?.*$     [NC]

RewriteRule .*\.(flv)$ - [F,NC]

Notice mine is a white list of allowed sites.

so this allows hotlinking from those sites, but disallows it for all others?

yes, but it will allow blank referrers too.
this line:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

if you want to disable any access to it that is not from your domain you should consider removing that too. But note that there are some anti-viruses that will clean up the referrer, not a lot, but could cause your image not to show up for a handful of people.
