And has been for the last week. I was using mod_proxy to proxy requests to BadPage.info and, due to the lack of sensible documentation (which I still don’t quite understand – a few examples would be useful apache foundation), my web server was turned into a spam forwarding machine.
I’ve disabled proxies (and thus BadPage.info is off the air just now). I’m still getting hammered from indousa.us sending malformed http requests in hopes of them turning into spam. Since I’ve set up explicit deny rules for them, I’m hopeful they’ll check their logs soon and get the hint.
If you’re in the mood to test a server loading script, indousa.us seems like a dandy test bed. Give them my regards.
Update: As soon as I deny that domain, a dozen others arise to take its place. Anyone with extensive skill on the use of mod_rewrite and mod_proxy that cares to help, please give me a shout.
Update: Solved it I think. BadPage.info is back on the air but all other proxy requests are being denied. I am still being hammered though.
