Example

i have users upload files true php and storing links to mysql
and only the user who have uploaded the file may download it
so i need ip restriction without restarting the server
or an other idea to have url that only gives specific users acces?

i think its better that you do that via a php script.. like check for IPs and stuff..
however you talk about restarting the server... that means you want it via apache configuration? well how about .htaccess files?
