Redmine / ChiliProject - Restrict login by ip address

I would like to restrict access to certain users of a redmine/chiliproject install as long as they are coming from a certain ip address or a certain range of ip addresses.

Is there a plugin for this开发者_JAVA技巧 or is there an easy (ie quick simple) way of doing this?

Thanks.

If you use an apache server to serve the static files and proxy requests to redmine, you could use mod_authz_host of apache and add some rules to the configuration of your site. For example:

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 64.34.119.12

More example and documentation on http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authz_host.html*
