Post by: yair on August 26, 2007, 10:29:15 PM

hi, i have lots of leeching bots that disregard my robot.txt file, from the same country. can i ban a range using a service like ip-to-country ?

HFS doesn't offer such feature.
you could achieve it by having programming skills and a lot of time.

thank you Rejetto for the killer app.
and foggy for the link...
here (http://services.ce3c.be/ciprg/) is a service to generate a peergaurdian compatible blocklist based on location.
