only allow certain ip's

[snow]

is there a way to only allow certain ip's to access a domain? I need a super secure site, which will only allow 1 certain ip to a login screen.

thanks

First you have to password protect the public_html folder in cpanel and create an authorized user, then you can edit the newly created .htaccess file into something like this:

order deny, allow
deny from all
allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (this is the allowed IP)
AuthType Basic
AuthName "...whatever"
AuthUserFile "/home/your_user/.htpasswds/your_protected_folder/passwd"
require valid-user
satisfy all
