Greetings.
The last few days we have been getting 1000's of connections to dl.fedoraproject.org from a .ru ip address. They seem to launch thousands of downloads at once. This is causing download servers to alert about max processes and possibly not serve content to others.
I'd like to block them in httpd for now:
(note, IP changed below, since I dont think we want to point out this IP address for all time in our mail archives. The NN.NN.NN.NN will be replaced with the final IP when the commit is pushed)
+1's?
