Several people get their jollies off by having differnet servers infinitely request my main page thousands of times each therefore shooting my memory to poo and a lot of bandwidth. But my problem is the memory, not the bandwidth. I've looked through mod_throttle and such, not for me. Is there anything out there that can automatically detect and take an action for this type of attack? I dunno...like use route on the offenders IP and such. But for it to do this automatically. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. -Cyrus To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
