    I want to be able to ban all IPs from accessing a specific directorie APART from the IP addresses that I specifiy.

    So basically only I can see the directory I specify.

    Im pretty sure there must be a way of doing this via CPanel or something.
    Thanks. :)

    create a .htaccess file in the subdirectory and add this to it.

    where xx.xx.xx.xx = the IP address to allow in.

    You can also password protect the directory in cpanel - it requires a userid / password for someone to access it.
