Google Hunter...

[phpretard]

I am trying to catch that waskaly googlebot crawling my site. 

 

Evidently they have lots of IP addresses and whois says the range is 66.249.64.0 - 66.249.95.255.

 

Please help me with the code below.

 

<?

$ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

if($ip=='RANGE OF IPS'){

echo "Caught ya";

?>
}

 

Thank you.

<?php
  $parts = explode('.',$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],4);
  if($parts[0] == 66 && $parts[1] == 249 && $parts[2] >= 64 && $parts[2] <= 95){
    echo "Caught ya";
  }
?>

I have no idea what that code reads but I am going to use it.

You could also catch 'em by looking at $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], not the way you asked but another method, here's some random agents from my logs:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)

msnbot-media/1.0 (+http://search.msn.com/msnbot.htm)

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Yahoo! Slurp; http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/slurp)

Gigabot/3.0 (http://www.gigablast.com/spider.html)

msnbot/1.0 (+http://search.msn.com/msnbot.htm)

IRLbot/3.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; http://irl.cs.tamu.edu/crawler)

 

I'd also recommend a look here: http://www.robotstxt.org/

First, it splits the IP into it's 4 parts. Then, tests for the case where the first part is 66, the second is 249, and the third is between 64 and 95. The forth part is irrelevant if they own everything in the 0-255 range.
