Allowing a domain to hotlink you

[RedCherry]

Ok, just used the .htaccess in the FAQ section, and stopped some hotlinkers. :D But I have one domain that I use for picposts, so I want to allow some domains to hotlink me. How do I modify that .htacess to allow that?

this is what I have

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomain.com/404.shtml
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*@)?([a-z0-9-]+\.)*mydomain\.com(:[0-9]+)?(/.*)?$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*@)?1\.2\.3\.4(:[0-9]+)?(/.*)?$
RewriteRule .*\.(asf|mpg|mpeg|wmv|avi|rm|gif|jpeg|jpg|zip)$ - [NC,F,L]


how do I add in domains to that that are ok to hotlink?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*@)?([a-z0-9-]+\.)*otherdomain\.com(:[0-9]+)?(/.*)?$ [NC]

add as many of these as you need above the RewriteRule line with the domains that you want to allow

Thought I'd pass this along, Mike at Phatservers sent me this. :) The .htaccess generator that is posted in other threads was 404, one of the reasons I started this thread, and this is another good generator.

Yeah I know that place I use has been 404 alot latly. Heres another one, I love the huge amount of options. Most generators do standard, username password, bot blocking etc. This is nice

Hi RedCherry
Can you show me a movie file that you have protectd with this:

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomain.com/404.shtml
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*@)?([a-z0-9-]+\.)*mydomain\.com(:[0-9]+)?(/.*)?$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*@)?1\.2\.3\.4(:[0-9]+)?(/.*)?$
RewriteRule .*\.(asf|mpg|mpeg|wmv|avi|rm|gif|jpeg|jpg|zip)$ - [NC,F,L]

If anyone has any type of movie file protected with htaccess I would like to try our test on it.
