htaccess spammers and folder question
 

Hi,

I have two .htaccess files on my website. One in the root and the other in the /forums folder.

I want to write in code to deny access to a host. I have written this:

order allow,deny
deny from airtelbroadband.in
allow from all

I have only added this to the .htaccess file in the root. The .htaccess file in the /forums folder doesn't have any allow, deny conditions. Will this host still be denied access to the /forums folder or do I need to add the code to the .htaccess file in the /forums folder too?

Thanks
