restrict access to the admin url by ip in django with nginx and gunicorn
I am trying to restrict access to the admin section of my django app by using simple host-based access control in nginx. Unfortunately nginx does not seem to abide by the configuration request: this is my setting for this particular section in nginx: # gunicorn setup location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; } location /admin/ { # restrict access to admin section allow 192.168.0.1; deny all; } This does still block my ip 192.168.0.1. What am I doing wrong? Is
