    Just wondering if I can tweak my htaccess settings, so that I can browse directories, but only from certain IPs. eg my home or work computer

    Can't figure it out though!

    Cheers,

    Can't you use something along the lines of:

    <Limit GET>
    order deny,allow
    allow from 123.456.789.0
    allow from 123.45.67
    deny from all
    </Limit>

    That would allow the IP address 123.456.789.0 and any IP addresses starting with 123.456.67 and deny access to everyone else.

    Edit: Also do NOT put a space before or after the comma in "allow,deny" as the server will consider this as a syntax error and will not allow anyone to access the directory.
