Blocking crawling of CGIs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We've had some instances where crawlers have stumbled onto a cgi script
which refers to itself and start pounding the server with requests to
that cgi.

There are so many CGI scripts on this server that I don't want to
maintain a huge robots.txt file.  Any suggestions on other techniques to
keep crawlers away from cgi scripts?  Check the browser with
BrowserMatch and then do something creative with "deny from env="?
