Hi *,
I've a problem with an Apache web server hit by f*cking spammers...
I would like to filter some URLs (unused but still used by the bots) *BEFORE*
they reach the httpd processes. What could be the best method? pf? something
else?
Thanks!
I haven't played with it myself, and don't know if it even compiles on
OpenBSD as it was written for FreeBSD and then ported to Linux, but I
think nginx would be something that would be more than appropriate in
such an occasion.
http://nginx.net/
To my knowledge, nearly half of Russian high-traffic web-sites utilise
this thing for various http traffic routing purposes...
Cheers,
Constantine.
