Guest Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi, I recently blocked an IP address from accessing my site. Instead of the standard "You are not authorized to view this site" the page the blocked IP sees says something about there not being an index file. So, basically I want the blocked person to know they are blocked and it is not a mistake. Where can I find the file for the page they are seeing so I can edit the text to say you have been blocked from accessing this site? Here is the text the blocked user currently sees that I want to change, where can I find the file?: Directory has no index file. Browsing this site or directory without an index file is prohibited. If you are the site's webmaster, you can remedy this problem by creating a default HTML page with one of the following names: index.html index.htm default.htm Default.htm home.html Home.chtml NOTE: Filenames are case sensitive, i.e., Home.html is not the same as home.html Thanks so much!!

Guest Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 you could use my IP Trap contribution you can add IP numbers manually to the list. Will that allow me to customize the page the blocked user sees when they go on my site? Right now the message they get makes it look like my site is down or not working, I want to change the text on that page to say "You have been blocked from accessing this site..." If I can customize the page they see when they try to access my site, then where can I find that contribution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
