Repeat of a Stupid AVS Question - GoFuckYourself.com

Giorgio_Xo · 08-31-2003, 04:47 PM

I am soon set to create AVS sections on a few of my sites but I have a stupid question to ask: How do I protect the members area (or do I)?

The user flow goes from the splash page to the enter ID page to the members content. The access is controlled by the AVS? Is there a cgi interaction with my domain as with a paysite?

Is this an htaccess issue? My brain doesn't want to think today.

I signed up with Cyberage. Thanks.

Uh..well...i could answer that but geesh...come on.

Ok, hint.

Try making and submitting your first avs site and read the steps to do that.

AVS's are not the way to go.

you will use .htaccess with the avs as the Reffer url

the surfers would have to be coming from the avs to get access.

you will get a sign up / login script from the avs, they check the password of the surfer and if it ok then they send him on to your site.

Thank you. I wanted to make sure.

This one covers all the TTI AVS's- CA, CSN, UGAS. Replace "your-domain" and "where ever you send them" and put it in your content (or whatever you call your members/protected) folder:

AuthType Basic
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.your-domain.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://your-domain.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.avsofchoice\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.cybersexnetwork\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.cyberage\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.ugas\.com/* [NC]
RewriteRule /* http://where-ever-you-send-them.com [R,L]

That doesn't fit without wrapping- let me try again:

AuthType Basic
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.your-domain.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://your-domain.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.avsofchoice\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.cybersexnetwork\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.cyberage\.com/* [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.+\.ugas\.com/* [NC]
RewriteRule /* http://where-ever-you-send-them.com [R,L]

Giorgio, what they are telling you here is the way almost everybody does it. But if you really want to do it right, get strongbox from ray at http://www.webmastersguide.com/htaccess-cgi/strongbox/. At $35 one of the biggest bargains in the industry.
