Peter,
Unfortunately not. I was going to do something similar, and the first
cut was actually going to do the RBL checks in the perl code itself.
e.g. (and I'm sorry if the code offends anyones perl style :) )
#
# If the hostname passed in in the first argument resolves, then return
# 1, else return 0.
#
sub
rbl_lookup {
my ($hname) = @_;
($name,$aliases,$addrtype,$length,@addrs) = gethostbyname($hname);
return(1) if ($name);
return(0);
}
#
# Check the IP passed in the first argument to see if its on the RBL or
# the RSS. The values are cached, but are refreshed if the force flag
# is set to 1.
#
sub
rbl_check {
my ($ip, $force) = @_;
if (($checked != 1) || ($force == 1)) {
$checked = 1;
my ($reverse_ip) = $ip;
$reverse_ip =~ s/([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+)/$4.$3.$2.$1/;
if (rbl_lookup($reverse_ip.".rbl.maps.vix.com") == 1) {
$rbl = 1;
}
if (rbl_lookup($reverse_ip.".relays.mail-abuse.org") == 1) {
$rss = 1;
}
}
return ($rbl * 2) + $rss;
}
I have a force parameter so I can rescan for changes to the listings
periodically.
This code is already in line for some stuff, but I don't do it per
user so I don't know what it'd do to the load. I bet it'd probably
kill my boxes :-/
Unfortunately I got distracted by management stuff when I sat down to
look at what it'd take to hack the rbl variable stuff in.
