2007-06-18 Do not feed the troll

Seen today on the Apache user's mailing list:

"I noticed someone was using a CONNECT xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx http command against Apache. I was wondering how to disable the CONNECT command from executing on Apache. In a couple of entries I noticed a connection from Seattle that might be a spammer so I want to disable the CONNECT command from running successfully."

Being a good Samaritan I replied with a few tips. But later I couldn't help wondering: is this a troll who's hoping for a response like, "Yeah, we have that at www.oursite.org as well", just to get a new address of an open proxy?

Or is this a valid question on a list of an Apache self-help group? Am I being paranoid? Do I have reason to be?
