[Koha] Making Koha temporarily unavailable?

[Chris Brown]

Fred,

Many thanks for your reply. I am actually trying to disable login to the
staff interface not the OPAC. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Currently I address this problem by temporarily blocking port 8000 (our
staff interface) in the firewall on our server, but this is a slightly
tedious operation and I was looking for an easier way.

Best Regards,

Chris Brown
