sorry for being so direct but this is what I need to do…
in one of my virtual hosts I need to show a custom message based on
user’s IP.
for example…
if user comes from 1.0.0.0/8 or 12.0.0.0/8 it get a custom message/page
yet if user comes from anywhere else he’ll be able to use site normally
how would I accomplish that?

At the http level:
geo $forbidden_client {
default 0;
1.0.0.0/8 1;
12.0.0.0/8 1;
}
server {
# …
error_page 418 /custom_message.html;
if ($forbidden_client) {
return 418;
}
}
server {
# …
error_page 403 /custom_message.html;
deny 1.0.0.0/8;
deny 12.0.0.0/8;
allow all;
}
