I am using some htaccess files to control access to a few web pages.

The htaccess file works if I use the ip address of the computer to grant access, but not its name.

Is there another setting to enable for  “Allow from computername.domain.name” to work like using the ip address “Allow from ###.###.###.###” ?

 

Order deny,allow

Deny from all

Allow from computername.domain.name //this does not grant access

Allow from ###.###.###.### //this grants access

 

The computers and the server are all on the same network

 

Thanks
