Hi all,

I need to deny users by ip. I assume we need to do something like this

location / {

  # block one workstation

  deny    192.168.1.1;

  # allow anyone in 192.168.1.0/24

  allow   192.168.1.0/24;

  # drop rest of the world

  deny    all;

}

But how can I pass on the list of ips from a file? A file which will get
udated from time to time.

Can I pass the ips something like this

 deny   /tmp/iplist.txt;

Will Nginx refresh the ip list in memory if the file gets changed?
