OK, for script kiddies is must not be multi language (maybe just for completeness). It's more because of the common wildcard DNS. For an vhost I have deleted in Apache, it might be also possible to set an status 410, but I guess 400 is better (not only the current uri is gone, the whole host does not exist). Of course, setting a 410 is the same "problem". > I'm not certain if this works, but; > > Redirect 400 / > > or > > RedirectMatch 400 .* It's the same as with: | RewriteRule ^.*$ - [R=400] BTW: If "httpd-multilang-errordoc.conf" is enabled, all above solutions are also not working nice. Because now the error document shows: | Bad Request | | Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. | | Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while | trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. (and with [R=404] you have an additional error, because of endless internal redirects) Regards, Carsten --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
