Thanks. Line continuation!
I now have this in my httpd.conf:
<Location /public> PerlAccessHandler 'sub {\ return Apache::Const::FORBIDDEN\ unless shift->connection->remote_ip=~m/^\Q10.3.4./;\ }' </Location>
Hmmm.... I'm reading this and it seems to me that this should deny access to anyone trying to access a file in the /public folder unless they are coming from a remote address that starts with 10.3.4. But it seems to let me in coming from 127.0.0.1.
Am I missing something here?
Your code is broken, there is no Apache::Const::FORBIDDEN, but Apache::FORBIDDEN. You also need to compile it before you can use it. Take a look at:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlAccessHandler
did you look at the error_log file, was there anything in it?
add 'use warnings/use strict' or PerlOptions -w (and -T) if you don't have already.
