util::reject_request_filter (public)

 util::reject_request_filter why what

Defined in packages/acs-tcl/tcl/utilities-procs.tcl

Reject a request from a NaviServer filter. This proc is intended for use with ns_register_filter, in particular for early preauth filters that reject unwanted probe, scanner, or otherwise unsupported request paths before the OpenACS request processor performs canonical-host redirects or page dispatch. When used as a preauth filter, the proc performs the minimal ad_conn setup needed by the OpenACS request processor cleanup path. Example:

    ns_register_filter -first preauth POST /PSEMHUB/* ::util::reject_request_filter "PeopleSoft probe"

Parameters:

why (required)

filter stage, e.g. preauth

what (required)

short description of the rejected request

Returns:

filter_return
