I suggest you email abuse contact for seed.net.tw, who appears to be the owner of that network block (139.175/16) and take it up with them. I assume you already tried to go through openfind.com.tw and did not get a satisfactory response. You could always use this approach as well :-) Or if you do not have access to your routing tables, add host routes to loopback0 on your web servers. I do this for customers when they request IP blocks. ip route 139.175.250.23/32 null0 What I definately recommend against is trying to use apache's access controls to block based on IP. It's not very smart, and will do a DNS lookup on every request even if you are trying to block by IP. If the IP route null0 method ever fails me, I will patch apache to fix this. -- Jeff S Wheeler jsw@five-elements.com Software Development Five Elements, Inc http://www.five-elements.com/~jsw/ On Thu, 2002-08-08 at 14:38, Martin WHEELER wrote: > Does *anyone* have a solution for keeping the site-sucking bots from > openfind.tw.com out of my machine? > > They don't obey any sort of international guidelines;, and tie my > machine up for hours on end once they find a way of getting in and > latching on. > > I'm getting desperate. > > Any help appreciated. > > msw > -- > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-isp-request@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
