Thanks! Please ignore my previous post as I found the the following at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/env.html
Prevent "Image Theft"
This example shows how to keep people not on your server from using
images on your server as inline-images on their pages. This is not a
recommended configuration, but it can work in limited circumstances. We
assume that all your images are in a directory called /web/images.
SetEnvIf Referer "^http://www.example.com/" local_referal
# Allow browsers that do not send Referer info
SetEnvIf Referer "^$" local_referal
<Directory /web/images>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from env=local_referal
</Directory>
Note: spelling of 'referer' and 'referal' is intentional.
For more information about this technique, see the ApacheToday tutorial
" Keeping Your Images from Adorning Other Sites".
This is basically what I'm searching for except downloads instead of
images but what's the diff?
Thank You.
