    What do you want to allow?  Everything or just local access?

    "Allow from all" does what it says.

    "Allow from 127.0.0.1" will only let you work on the same machine as 
    itself, and only if you access the webserver using 127.0.0.1.

    "Allow from 192.168.1.105" is almost the same as above, except for only
    allowing connections if you use that 192... address.

    You can also do combinations.

    e.g. Allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.105

    And more general addresses, so that any computer within your LAN would 
    be allowed.

    e.g. Allow from 192.168.1

    2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386

    Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.  Today, it's FC7.

    Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. 
    I read messages from the public lists.

  Basically, if you want to be the only one to access the site, use "Allow from 127.0.0.1" or "Allow from 192.168.1.105". If you want it to be a public site, use "Allow from all"
