I want to block, e.g, any IP address
of the type

208.111.154.

from my site. The following snipet in my .htaccess file
does not do it.

<Limit GET>
order allow, deny
deny from 208.111.154.
allow from all
</Limit>

What is wrong with it?
My site is on Powweb.
Thanks!

Try order deny,allow

with "order allow,deny" the allow condition will be evaluated first,
since the allow condition allows all the deny condition would not be
evalutated

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authz_host.html#ord er
Allow,Deny
First, all Allow directives are evaluated; at least one must match, or the
request is rejected. Next, all Deny directives are evaluated. If any
matches, the request is rejected. Last, any requests which do not match an
Allow or a Deny directive are denied by default.


To the OP:
There should not be a space in 'allow, deny' ...
