In the example you gave, the build log says "The web-page 'force build' button was pressed by '<unknown>': <no reason specified> " So ISTM that it's indeed certain that the build was triggered over the web, rather than by a checkin. > http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/builders/sparc%20Ubuntu%20trunk/builds/175 AFAICT from the twistd logs, the user agent triggering this build was "Mozilla/4.7 [ja] (Win98; I)". It still may have been a bot; it was using a GET request, even though the form asks for a POST. The IP address points to some Japanese dialup network (reverse lookup reports address.dy.bbexcite.jp.) The bot probably has malicious intent: it has been using about 10 different user-agent strings, on various parts of the site. I have now blackholed this IP address (although it stopped contacting python.org around 8 hours ago, anyway). If desired, we could password-protect the "force build" forms. If that is to be done, some help from a buildbot expert on what to change specifically would be appreciated. Regards, Martin
