Improving logging and access to avoid Code Red stuff

           Summary: Improving logging and access to avoid Code Red stuff
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.47
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Servers infected by Code Red try to access some directories in my web server 
and also swells the log file with trash making my statistics useless.

1st) The access.log is swollen with useless data making impossible to analyze 
statistics.

2nd) Many connections from the corrupted servers waste bandwith usefull for 
other connections more productive.

3rd) The IP is faked so Apache would not be able to apply this criteria to 
filter the connections.

ENHACENMENTS PROPOSED. The best one that I think is:

To specify somewhere in the program that if you get a connection trying to 
access a directory of yours (clearly declared or using wildcards) then reject 
the connection and don't write any line in the log file.

This would free bandwidth for productive connections
This wouldn't produce any line in the log file.


Thanks. Great Soft. Great Job.
