thumbs proxy cheker vhost advice

pupit: hi, should i put this in my webserver root? http://vlad-tepes.bofh.it/freenode-proxy-checker.txt
spb: if you really want to
thumbs: pupit: why would you?
spb: it won't do much, mind
pupit: thumbs: a lot of errors in error_log asking that file, i though someone will know in this room
thumbs: pupit: so the only purpose is not to pollute your error log?
pupit: thumbs, yes
thumbs: pupit: note that you can make a vhost with your IP as the Servername in apache, and use /dev/log for the ErrorLog there.
spb: then that won't help much
pupit: and the 2nd question, why is asking for that file?
spb: pupit: that's our proxy checker
spb: it's checking to see whether your machine has an abusable open proxy on it
thumbs: pupit: you can then serve content with your other vhosts, and ignore the requests on http://your_ip_here/
pupit: thumbs: yeah
thumbs: pupit: much smarter than putting a dummy file in the vhost.
pupit: thumbs: i know :)
pupit: i was just curious
