Security on a tgp or cj??

[MonkeyNuts]

I read alot about hotlinking and people steeling bandwith. I don't know much about this but I would like to protect my tgp from little thiefs. I think someone has already fucked with my site but I'm not for sure. Well how can I protect my site?

You can use .htaccess and apache rewrite engine codes

I don't remember exact codes
but if you look articles about hotlinking on adultwebmaster resource sites, you can protect yourself
http://www.ynotmasters.com/

also you can try to take a look some adult webhosts. They've some articles about hotlinking

moneky nuts, you can also buy scripts to protect yourself from hotlinking, that's in the ynotmasters script section.

Maybe this is not the best way to do it. But this is what I did:
1.- Open notepad or any other text editor.
2.- Paste this:
AuthUserFile /dev/null
AuthGroupFile /dev/null

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yoursite.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yoursite.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yoursite.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yoursite.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourIPadress [NC]
RewriteRule /* http://www.yoursite.com/ [R,L]

3.- Save the file as .htaccess (there should be no other extension). If notepad adds you the .txt extension, just delete it so the file name looks like ".htacces"

4.- Upload it to any of your folders you want to protect files from hotlinking.

NOTE: Do not upload it on folders that contains HTML files, cause they won't be able to load.

Hope this is useful for you http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/wink.gif

I'll try that out. But what about text links that have you sponser id in it. Can people fuck with that some how

You're afraid of someone hotlinking text links on your site? LOL

Even if that was possible, why would anyone hotlink your links to your sponsor???

I guess that would be very bad to you http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

HAHAHA!!! http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
If someone wants to use my links to my sponsors, I will be really happy.
MonkeyNuts, I don't think you can hotlink text links... Anyway, no one would be interested in doing that... But if you wanna use my links to my sponsors, I can send them to you immediately!
LOL!
I'm just kidding http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/wink.gif
Don't take this so serious...
Maybe we didn't understand your question.
I will be really glad to help if you can be more specific of what do you mean by:
"what about text links that have you sponser id in it. Can people fuck with that some how?"
My answer would be NO. I don't see why or for what someone wants to use them? Or in which way would someone fuck you with them...

[MonkeyNuts]

hotlink text wasn't what I ment. I ment since some text links shows my sponsers id can they somehow fuck up my account with that sponser

Oh... http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/smile.gif
Well, if someone doesn't like your site and has nothing more to do than screw webmasters, he can start cheating your sponsors with your ID just to get you canceled, like spam emails.
Then you'd have to proove that it wasn't you doing that...
Someone came here with that problem some weeks ago.
