Small IP Blocking script

[SBh]

<?php  
$blockip = array(
'123.123.123.123'=> 'Block reason1',
'456.456.456.456'=> 'block reason2'
);

foreach($blockip as $key=>$val)
{if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] == $key) 
 {   
 die("You Have Been Banned because $val");
 }
}
?>

Just include this code on the start of every page of your site and set the different ban IPs along with different banning reason.
This just the basic concept of banning IP by php.

Thanks for sharing such useful script
I think /etc/hosts.deny would be the better option for blocking IP's or range of IP's

One good thing about this PHP script is that we can display message for all banned IP's

/etc/hosts.deny is good to block IPs throughout the server. Shared hosting customers cannot request us to block IPs through /etc/hosts.deny so such php script looks like a good solution.

Thanks Admin for your helpful reply
That mean this script is very useful for all webmaster who are using shared hosting.

With some more modification in this script you can also discriminate among visitors such as search-bots, and can behave in a different way.
