#2 passwd in url

[Anonymous]

I used monkeyd to host files for my Mandrivalinux
net-install. Setup went fine until installer was trying
to download passwd-0.68-3mdk.i586.rpm from monkeyd
server. I also tried to download rpm with browser. I
figured out that whenever "passwd" is part of a
requested URL monkeyd server returns "forbidden".
Forbidden is also returned from requests to files and
directories which doesn't even exist.

you're right, this is a security feature, some strings are not allowed to be requested, you can change this configuration in conf/monkey.deny (URL section)
