Identifying and Stopping Unwanted Net Traffic

[Krautkramer, John]

Yes that will work for those on my home network. But I have family from
out of state that also uses the site and that would block them. From a
google search I believe I could use something like the Apache .htaccess
directory protection.

Thanks for the input!

John

You need to block inbound traffic *except* from your internal home net.
