<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Just a thought before I start crafting one. I am creating a location{} block with the intention of populating it with a ton of requests I want to terminate immediately with a 444 response. Before I start,
I thought I’d ask to see if anyone has a really good one I can use as a base.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">For example, we don’t serve PHP so I’m starting with
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Location ~* .php {<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Return 444;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">}<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Then I can just include this into all my server blocks so I can manage the aborts all in one place. This alone reduces errors in the logs significantly. But now I will have to start adding in all the wordpress
stuff, then onto php myadmin, etc. I will end up with something like<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Location ~* (.php|wp-admin|my-admin) {<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Return 444;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I can imagine the chunk inside the parenthesis is going to be pretty huge which is why I thought I’d reach out to see if anyone has one already.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
