How could you set up a firewall that checks the content of the request? Is there a free software solution that you could use? Would it be possible to implement in something like pf or netfilter? I think you could configure something that would work with some combination of apache's mod_rewrite and mod_proxy, but it seems like that would take more power than letting your webserver return a 404. -Lkb _______________________________________________ Bits mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sugoi.org/mailman/listinfo/bits
