I'm not sure I would block DNS on a Windows system, certainly
if it is doing anything else but being a server. But then
I would not use a Windows system for a server.
I suspect that what you want to do can be accomplished
with mod_ssl, mod_rewrite, <Directory> and <VirtualHost>.
I don't see my way right to it, but, for example,
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_USER} !^.+$
RewriteRule $.*$ - [F]
or some such thing properly placed might be useful.
Detailed tutorials for these capabilities can be found on
the Apache web site. Some study would be required.
HTH.
