Saludos amigos programadores de Web.
Mi Problema es, que necesito denegar una IP desde el fichero .htaccess, pero no con el tipico error 403 (Forbidden). sino con el error 404 (Not found). Para quitarme de encima una IP fija que visita constantemente mi servidor para llenar de Spam mis comentarios.
Espero que esto pueda ser posible y que me puedan ayudar. De antemano, Gracias!

Greetings Web Programmers.
I need to deny an IP visitor throught the .htaccess file of my blog with a 404 (Not found), not 403 (Forbidden) error code. is it possible?. Please help me! Tks

Try the code below by changing the 10.10.10.10 to reflect the ip in question. The 404.shtml is the page that the ip in question will get in return. The [L] flag will process the request internal to the web engine and the requestor won't know that they were redirected within the site.

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^10\.10\.10\.10
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /404.shtml [L]
