Posted by bonjurkes, 09-27-2007, 09:54 AM Hello, I have a plesk panel and i had a look for hotlink protection but unfortunately couldn`t find the proper option. I guess there is a hotlink protection at windows version of plesk but not at linux one. I have a linux server. Also i have a question about hotlinks also, one of my customer has a site that it uses too much bandwith like 600 gb at a month. It is an education related site and site is html. And i am having some high load issues. When i check apache-status it shows %90 of the connections for that site. But i cant be sure that if it site really makes high load on server because like i told site is html. Also would like to know if server get s load for example if visitor wants to download something from site. Because visitors are usually downloading zip, mp3 and those kind of files and i dont know if that many download cause the high load. Also will it reduce the load of the server if i put hotlink protection to that site because of chance for other sites to leech files from this site? Edit : If there isn`t any option for hotlink protection at Plesk panel how can i enable hotlink protection. Maybe using htaccess, but i would be glad if you can provide hotlink protection code also
