Re: [users@httpd] Redirect users trying to access any page on my site to the homepage

Why not do an internal redirect?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://192.168.5.230/ [NC]
RewriteRule .*    /index.php

Some UAs like spiders will probably just see your home page on all your URLs
though.
