<br><br>What do you want to allow? Everything or just local access?<br><br>"Allow from all" does what it says.<br><br>"Allow from <a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a>" will only let you work on the same machine as
<br>itself, and only if you access the webserver using <a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a>.<br><br>"Allow from <a href="http://192.168.1.105">192.168.1.105</a>" is almost the same as above, except for only<br>
allowing connections if you use that 192... address.<br><br>You can also do combinations.<br><br>e.g. Allow from <a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a> <a href="http://192.168.1.105">192.168.1.105</a><br><br>And more general addresses, so that any computer within your LAN would
<br>be allowed.<br><br>e.g. Allow from 192.168.1<br><br>--<br>[tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr<br>2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386<br><br>Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.<br><br>Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
