I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to disable a single IP address from downloading files from the server?

I don't use a router.

I tried entering the address in the firewall but it didn't have any effect while Abyss was running.

You should be able to configure blocking someone entirely using a firewall but if their behind a dynamic IP address you're in trouble. It means their IP always changes making it harder and harder to catch them. Perhaps seek an alternative or get a good friend to help test your settings as it is hard to try and test an IP which isn't yours.

Good luck :)

This script will block the IP for you.

If the person goes behind a Proxy Server it will mask there IP and there-fore they can come back to the site.

For a strong ban, the easiest way is to use a Hardware Serial Ban, Mac Address Ban or Volume ID Serial Ban.

Hey UK, Hardware Serial Ban, Mac Address Ban or Volume ID Serial Ban sounds interesting... Would you have any resources off hand? Thanks for the info so far :)

Thanks for all the replies.

I experimented with my firewall and found that I could block by disabling an IP address (or range of addresses) for TCP Incoming connections. This script looks interesting though, I'll check it out.
