Is the project (or anybody) planning to work on something like spamd
for http? Or does anybody know of any projects which do this already?
I am looking for something to be (as per spamd) put in front of an
actual server. A bunch of possible features i would be looking at:
- blacklisting (should ideally allow for dynamic reloads without
killing any existing valid connections)
- tarpitting for open connections (no http request sent) beyond a
certain timeout
- tarpitting for invalid http requests
- "greytrapping" (let's say u have only specific url patterns which
are valid. Anything else, tarpit)
thanks,
-jf
