I'm trying to put online a staging area for an upcoming website... I'd usually rather use an htaccess rule to enable only me and my client to see the website...i think is safer and you dont need to rememebr passwords and so...
but my client this time has an internet provider who doesnt give him a static ip, aparently everyday or so, his ip chamges...so i have to change my htaccess!
there is any solution for that?
You could have him use a dynamic DNS service like dyndns.com or no-ip.com. That way he can setup a domain name like someguy.dyndns.com which would always resolve to his ip (he'll probably need to install a small daemon/service/program to automatically update the IP though). Then you can add a rule into your .htaccess like allow from someguy.dyndns.com
