Problem in disabling HTTP OPTIONS method

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

 



Dear users,

We tried to disable HTTP options method in our apache server(version httpd-2.0.63). We have added the following lines in httpd.conf :

<Location />
     <LimitExcept GET POST HEAD CONNECT>
        order deny,allow
        deny from all
       LimitExcept>
</Location>

But when we test for OPTIONS method, it is still available as shown below :

cmd:\>telnet 192.16.1.1 80
Trying 192.16.1.1...
Connected to 192.16.1.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Fri, 07 May 2010 10:49:43 GMT
Server: Apache
Allow: GET,HEAD,POST,OPTIONS
Content-Length: 0
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/plain

Connection closed by foreign host.

------------

Please let us know how to disable OPTIONS method in httpd. we do not prefer to use mod_rewrite.

Or else is it possible to configure such that the Allow line is not shown when queried:

Allow: GET,HEAD,POST,OPTIONS

Waiting for response....

Thanks and regards
