I use this one server wide command to restrict access to wp-login.php to two hits a second. It works well.
QS_LocRequestLimitMatch "^(/wp-login.php).*$" 2

How do I whitelist an IP address from this restriction now? This does not seem to help:
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr 1.2.3.4 QS_VipRequest=yes
QS_LocRequestLimitMatch "^(/wp-login.php).*$" 2

Thanks for any input.

You have to use the QS_VipHeaderName directive to enable the VIP feature.

Ok, thanks. Maybe I'll get that a try.
