.htaccess not working with new host

    Just got new hosting and I have transferred my .htaccess file to the public_html directory. However nothing I do with the .htaccess file seems to be working. I believe Apache is ignoring my .htaccess file completely.

    I found this: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/misc/FAQ.html#htaccess-work
    Could this be the problem? The server is running Apache 1.3.39 (unix)

    My .htaccess file contains this:
    <Limit GET POST PUT>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 131.151
</Limit>
    Code (markup):
    This .htaccess works fine with my old 1and1.com host. But not on the new server.

    Would the solution provided by the apache link above work? Is there any other way I can block IP ranges (or allow only certain IP ranges) with a relatively low resource/bandwidth script? Thanks

    You can ask your new host, if they enable .htaccess for users

    Maybe the new host is not using apache?
