Requiring specific referrer for access to a directory

["Harrell, Roger" <rj...@bechtel.com>]

I'm trying to restrict access to a directory to make sure that any access is
only via referral from my site. I've got a lot of image and bandwidth theft
occurring. I've gleaned the below from the docs but any requests get denied
even if referred properly.

SetEnvIf Referer www\.domain\.com intra_site_referrer
SetEnvIf Referer domain\.com intra_site_referrer
<Directory>
   Order Deny, Allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from env=intra_site_referrer
</Directory> 

domain is my domain. I have tried both <Directory> and <Directory /dirname>
What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

That should be <Directory /full/unix/path/to/dirname>.
