Subject: Re: How to get all the keys from servers?

[Thomas Seifert]

Thats a simple approach I'm actually using.
I'm putting every IP which hits my php-script into the database if it
doesn't exist yet and if it exists I just increment its counter.
If a certain threshold in a couple of seconds is reached the ip is
blocked by adding a .htaccess-entry.
No processing of all keys needed.
