Greetings, Yesterday while looking at my logs I noticed a large amount of requests hitting my HTTP mirror that are web seed bittorrent traffic which my server has to process and send out a HTTP error 400 bad request. You can see an access.log snippet in this paste: http://bpaste.net/show/sz9PbalP5Sge1bt4CKo9/ I can't do anything at the nginx level since he'll always respond with a HTTP 400 before any configuration rules get applied. Does anyone else notice this, and does anyone have any suggestions on how to best mitigate this as I would rather not have thousands of large invalid requests daily hitting and starving my HTTP server connections. Best regards
