A few alternative thoughts:
  1. Is the server overloaded, so you need to stop the DDOS before it gets to the server? You could potentially throttle concurrent connections upstream at your firewall, assuming you have one upstream of your server.
  2. If you have something less public (for your use only) - you could try security by obscurity, and move the port you've exposed your apache server on (move it from TCP port 80/443 to 90/7443 or something). If it isn't a managed DDOS, the bots won't generally find you again. To use it, the url becomes site:90/path It's an emergency workaround, but probably not a good long-term fix.

NAME
Apache2::FilterRec - Perl API for manipulating the Apache filter record Synopsis use Apache2::Filter (); use Apache2::FilterRec (); my $frec = $filter->frec; print "filter name is:", $frec->name; Description "Apache2::FilterRec" provides an access to the filter record structure. The "Apache2::FilterRec" object is retrieved by calling "frec()": $frec = $filter->frec; API
"Apache2::FilterRec" provides the following functions and/or methods: "name" The registered name for this filter $name = $frec->name(); obj: $frec ( "Apache2::FilterRec object" ) ret: $name (string) since: 2.0.00 mod_perl filters have four names: modperl_request_output modperl_request_input modperl_connection_output modperl_connection_input You can see the names of the non-mod_perl filters as well. By calling "$filter->next->frec->name" you can get the name of the next filter in the chain. Example: Let's print the name of the current and the filter that follows it: use Apache2::Filter (); use Apache2::FilterRec (); for my $frec ($filter->frec, $filter->next->frec) { print "Name: ", $frec->name; } See Also mod_perl 2.0 documentation.
