TrackBack auto-discovery problem?
It seem the TrackBack auto-discovery didn’t work properly. I was able to send the ping by just including other MT site’s permalink. I suppose it grab the external link and extract the trackback ping URL, then send the ping. But it didn’t function now. I did turn on and off the features back then to avoid duplicate ping. Would that make it mulfunction? Don’t think so.
Right now, I got to remember to copy other’s trackback URL and paste into the box labeled “URLs to ping”. To me it’s tedious, not friendly.

It can be hacked to point at other servers - for example ...

Note: These pages make extensive use of the latest XHTML and CSS Standards . ... The subject of Marcus (and perhaps Phil s) concern was gratuitous trackback pings sent to blogs by folks hoping that the resulting trackback link would drive some traffic back towards their own site. ... If leaches (as opposed to inadvertent gratuitous pings) are the problem, then perhaps the solution, as Marcus suggests, is to refuse trackback pings from repeat offenders. ... If someone pings from a post that just says You should read Phil s post then there s ...
[No Such Weblog] - Wednesday, September 3, 2003
I just trackback-spammed another weblog, inadvertently: Movable Type believed the ping was unsuccessful when it had been successful, and trackback autodiscovery kept adding the URL to the list of sites to be pinged.
