Hi Damien, We had this discussion in our company some days ago. If a customer is not permitted to get a
special service we decided to use the 403 status. The 403: Forbidden is very clear, You are not allowed! This will additional give clear lines in the log files: Somebody was trying to do something, but she/he was not allowed to do so. This is similar if somebody tries to scan your e.g. /picture directory. Hannes Ledl <http://www.ledl.at> http://www.ledl.at LEDL & PARTNER A- 9220 Velden am Wörthersee Villacherstrasse 74
