Is it possible to dynamically ban IP addresses using
mod_perl. Like even the first connection from the
specified ip will be rejected. I know that you can do
this using httpd.conf but I am wondering how to do the
same dynamically while Apache is running.
Also how can I cope with denial of service attacks? I
know there is no general solution to this, but is
there a particular technique to ease the problem. The
environment is one host that serves small number of
people with a very limited bandwidth.
in mod_perl 2.0 you can do it even better:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/protocols.html#PerlPreConnectionHandler
or during the normal mp1-like handler:
