Stop users accessing website via IP address

[Puneet]

HI Travis,

 

I am trying to redirect the user to the location of my website.

 

For eg. The user enters http://X.X.X.X/login

I want to redirect the user to http://www.mywebsite.com/login

 

In the regular expression I am replacing the HOST NAME i.e. http://X.X.X.X
with http://www.mywebsite.com.

Therefore, I am just setting the header value to
http://www.mywebsite.com/login

And then in the next line

Set , obj.location to : http://www.mywebsite.com/login

 

This was what I intended to accomplish.

 

Thanks

Puneet

Your regular expression is malformed and you don't do any capturing or
replacement in the regsub function so I am not sure what you're trying to
accomplish there.

 

Can you elaborate on what you're trying set this header's value to?

HI Travis,

 

Thanks for the reply.

I think that should work.

 

Just one question.

In sub vcl_error() should I also change the

 

set req.http.X-REDIRURL = regsub(req.url,"https?://[^/$]+", "
<http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite%2Ecom&urlhash=5
qRF&_t=tracking_anet> http://mywebsite.com");

TO : -->

set req.http.X-REDIRURL = regsub(req.http.host,"https?://[^/$]+", "
<http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite%2Ecom&urlhash=5
qRF&_t=tracking_anet> http://mywebsite.com");

?

 

Because when replace req.url with req.http.host, It again stops working.

And If I don't do it, the bowser gives an error "Too many redirects"

 

Thanks

Puneet

Check against req.http.Host

 

In vcl_recv:

 

     if(req.http.Host ~ "8.8.8.8") {

         error 750;

     }

Hi all,


I want to stop the users accessing my website via IP address.
I am using varnish as cache.
I have the following code in place but it is not working.

In vcl_recv() {
     if(req.url ~ "XX.XX.XXX.XXX") {
     error 750 "Moved Permanently";
  } } 

And in vcl_error()
sub vcl_error {
    if (obj.status == 750) {
    set req.http.X-REDIRURL = regsub(req.url,"https?://[^/$]+", "
<http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite%2Ecom&urlhash=5
qRF&_t=tracking_anet> http://mywebsite.com");
    set obj.http.Location = req.http.X-REDIRURL;
    set obj.status = 301;
    unset req.http.X-REDIRURL;
    return(deliver);
}

But this does not redirect the user to the website, instead it delivers the
page.
Can anyone tell what I am missing?

 

Thanks

Puneet
