NGINX Short Solve:

You can use either:

  • Example 1 (should work)
 location = /admin.php { deny all; allow 10.0.0.0/8; } 
  • Example 2 (I'm unsure if it's the proper one for this case)
location ~* admin.php { deny all; allow 10.0.0.0/8; } 
  • Example 3 Combined with Basic-Auth
 location = /admin.php { deny all; allow 10.0.0.0/8; } auth_basic "restricted area"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpw/.htpasswd; 
  • Example 4 Basic-Auth only.
 location = /admin.php { auth_basic "restricted area"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpw/.htpasswd; 

Remind that your Browser-Cache can tricky yourself if it's not working directly (if you didn't forgot to reload nginx, of course.)
