I like doing from SSH as 'root'.

Example:

/sbin/route add -host 209.217.1.2 gw 127.0.0.1

replace '209.217.1.2' with the IP you want to block.

I would like to block a list of ip's

Will this also work if you have a domain that steals image bandwidth from you and you get the ip of their server and add it? I don't want to use hotlink protection...

If you wish to just block IPs using http then use a .htaccess with something like:

Order deny,allow
Allow from all
Deny from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

No, because it's the users of the other domain who access your files directly.

It would be best to use hotlink protection unless you want 2 block out the whole internet
