I have a form which you can post a file over to my server.
Is there a way, without using a custom HTTP handler, to intercept the start of the post and prevent it before the file is uploaded and bandwidth used up.
So for example, I could check an IP address and if it’s blocked in my system I could stop the request before I waste 10MB of uploading.
Thanks!
EDIT:
I’m using ASP.NET MVC
This is really a job for a HttpModule, not a HttpHandler. Just check remote IP against a blacklist in the BeginRequest event and null route or what have you.
