Hi AJ, Just a heads up, I have had a few clients in the past who used Dreamhost (and I had to set it up for them). They are not exactly the worlds best provider, and you certainly wouldn't want to use them for any production (live) sites.
But, to answer your original question, you can use IP whitelisting to block only those who you want to have access, by adding a rejection rule directly into the virtual host config.

All this time I have been developing on my personal Macbook with Django's dev server. I'd like to push this to the hosting service I have from Dreamhost and test, develop, fix it there. I'd like to know how can I avoid it being visible only to me while I hammer things out. It will be nice if I can have a dev instance visible only to me and a test/staging where I can showcase it to a few folks and then release it to the production. I do not know how to do this. First I was thinking of creating a subdomain system like dev/test/ etc. but Dreamhost uses passenger and I am not sure how to install multiple instances of a Django app per domain on Dreamhost either. What are you suggestions? Please feel free to point me to earlier discussions or articles or tools that I can use to achieve this. Thanks a lot.
