note 90656 added to reserved.variables.server

Here's a simple, quick but effective way to block unwanted external visitors to your local server: // only local requests if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] !== '127.0.0.1') die(header("Location: /")); This will direct all external traffic to your home page. Of course you could send a 404 or other custom error. Best practice is not to stay on the page with a custom error message as you acknowledge that the page does exist. That's why I redirect unwanted calls to (for example) phpmyadmin. ---- Server IP: 92.48.74.199 Probable Submitter: 94.196.119.115 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90656 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90656 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90656 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
