In looking at my logs, I see an IP that is doing some suspicious stuff. It seems to be an IP ID'd by HoneyPot. OK, no sweat, I say, I'll just "deny" it in my .htaccess file. I do that. Ten minutes later, that same IP is on my doorstep again, and getting served by my server. Huh? I checked my "deny" command, and everything looked right.
Is this IP spoofing? If IP spoofing is happening, is my server responding correctly? That is, is a client getting into in my system with one IP, but telling my Apache server that it's another IP?
This IP has a pretty unique User Agent, so I suppose I can kill it off that way. |

| A deny give only a 403 but does not block it entirely. Better you block it in your firewall. |
