Is it possible

[Brian]

To make a DIR on my website hosting accesible only from a certain IP address (City Hall) ? and everybody else just get denied access?

[eUKhost.com]

This can be done on server side but for whole server. it wont be possible to do this for a single website hosting.

OK< username/pass it is.

It can be done with .htaccess.

Are you running Apache on linux?

Aye shes on hawk

[WelshTom]

Make a .htaccess file in the directory you wish to protect, then inside, have the following:

order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 127.0.0.1

Replace 127.0.0.1 with the IP address you wish to permit

If you want to allow more than one IP address, simply add a new line called "allow from" followed by the IP address.

Hope this helps
