    hi all

    i have robots.txt in which i have disallowed admin folder

    User-Agent: *
    Disallow: /admin/

    Writing the admin folder name in robots.txt is not safe and i dont want to tell anyone where is admin section location.

    Is there anyother way i can tell robots or other spiders not to crawl my admin folder.

    You should ban bots and humanoids via on your server from accessing this folder. Go to http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=18 and ask in the apache forum (if you use apache) or the security forum. I'm sure they can help you. I'm too tired right now. Sorry.
