http:BL

praseodym - April 30, 2007 - 13:03

Implementation of http:BL for Drupal. It provides IP-based blacklisting through http:BL and allows linking to a honeypot. http:BL allows blocking of email harvesters and comment spammers through a centralized DNS blacklist. See http://www.projecthoneypot.org/httpbl.php for more information.

Features:

  • http:BL lookups for visitor IPs
  • Blocking of requests coming from blacklisted IPs
  • Database caching, decreasing the number of DNS lookups
  • Honeypot link placement on ban page and optionally in footer
  • Custom ban message
  • Whitelisting through the access table (admin/user/access)
  • Greylisting: grants the user access if he passes a simple test
  • Checking only when a comment is placed,
    queueing the comment for moderation if the lookup is positive
  • Basic statistics on the number of blocked visits

Note that the module can also function without http:BL functionality -- its use will then be limited to the placement of a Honeypot link in the footer.
