Advance security with login page

I am interested. Always good to see new options.

Sounds like this is more of a 'denial of service' type attack - flooding the server with requests... rather than a hack that altered files...

Certainly login.php can be renamed... but if others need to login - you would be updating your menu with the path to the new login page. 

(And even though I don't think this was a case of files being altered - always interested in seeing scripts we can use to monitor...)

How can I do this? I am the only user and I need to block/deny people from admin.php entirely.

phill104:
In your case maybe adding some rules to .htaccess will do what you want.

<Files admin.php>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from <YOUR_IP_ADDRESS>
</Files>


For example will completely block access to admin.php

You would then need to modify the rule to allow just your ip access. You can use google to lookup other options and how to use htaccess files. Server setup is best explored via websites dedicated to whatever platform your host is running rather than here.
