Since I'm sitting in the mod_perl handlers talk at ApacheCon 2003 (being given by Rich Bowen, author of Acme::Apache::Werewolf), your request is granted:
package Acme::Apache::ThereCastle;
use strict;
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
use IP::Country::Fast;
+
use vars qw($VERSION);
$VERSION = '1.00';
+
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
my $castle = $r->dir_config('CastleHome');
+
my $whois = IP::Country::Fast->new();
my $country = $whois->inet_atocc($r->get_remote_host);
return FORBIDDEN unless $country eq $castle;
return OK;
}
+
=head1 NAME
+
Acme::Apache::ThereCastle
+
=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
<Directory /transylvania>
PerlAccessHandler Acme::Apache::ThereCastle
PerlSetVar CastleHome RO
</Directory>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This mod_perl handler performs the important function of only
allowing people to access a directory from the right part of
the world.
=head1 USAGE
In your configuration file, put the following configuration
<Directory /transylvania>
PerlAccessHandler Acme::Apache::ThereCastle
PerlSetVar CastleHome RO
</directory>
Set the CastleHome variable to match the country which should
have access to your protected directory. This will keep
the peasants from storming your castle.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
