hmmm
Public info if one simply does a whois.Caneri wrote:no worries....I see you are a nut...you take my info I send to you and publish it...still no matter...but the puppy project is my main concern.
If I fail it will be because of me...you can't do much..so have a great time banning me...it will not help Puppy but I'm done with you.
I try not to block when not needed.Caneri wrote:hmmmm...try not to ban the universities as well..they may have a use for our servers.
I agree, I'm not trying to block klu9 or his efforts of editing & improving the wiki.Caneri wrote:I have had 16000 hits this week...I see no need to block but only a few..the meta-links klu9 is setting up are but another blessing for our servers.
I see no need to link pkagfiles to puppylinux.ca thus there is nothing to complain about for either of us...I think this thread is dead..n'est pas?
hmmm..maybe it's pakgfiles I am having a problem with...I never thought of it until you said the above...I'll do a test ban on pakgfiles for a day and watch my logs VERY closely.Previously known as Guest wrote:

It's no wonder you've got less than 10% of your connections and bandwidth legitimate. Most of it's coming from tinyurl, or people just lost and don't know where they're going. Maybe you've pissed someone off, and they're getting revenge. Or, you just don't know how to secure your server, and there are Russians hosting massive pr0n off of it.Previously known as Guest wrote: As I've found after reviewing logs, less than 10% of connections & bandwidth usage is legitimate, too each their there own & YMMV.

@klu9..sorry if I mess up your great work..but a ban on pakgfiles is in order.
I will pm you klu9 and we can work out the details with regards to the meta-links.
redirects/hotlinks from pakgfiles are a problem for my server...and a personal attack on my home ip is more than likely from pakgfiles... now that I think of it..took me a while to catch on.
It is a sorry state when a long time Puppy server turns out to be a long time spammer.
Guest.it's from your own words that tipped me off...sheesh
With my regrets,

I use TinyURLs to help in tracking the abuse for many months & makes interesting logs as well. The redirects are to the specific directory on pkagfiles, no where else, period!Keo_Kyzuki wrote:It's no wonder you've got less than 10% of your connections and bandwidth legitimate.

You've got stupid redirects, for things you don't even NEED them for. "http://tinyurl.com/22drg5" Should not exist. Instead, it should be: "http://pkagfiles.net/.puppy-official-Kn6/" Wow, go figure, it's on the same server! You sir, should re-code the index page. Save people the wasted time, and send them where they need to be, instead of a tinyurl redirect.
Still doesn't explain why only a little bit of your bandwidth usage is legit. You should look into wiping the server clean, starting anew, and maybe this time, not letting it be so exposed to attacks.Previously known as Guest wrote: I use TinyURLs to help in tracking the abuse for many months & makes interesting logs as well.

Large attacks have stopped over a month ago.

Don't tell me it's not exposed, or it's secure. That's obviously bullshit. I would be willing to bet that your server's been compromised, and someone named Boris or Dimitri is having the time of their lives. It's time you get over yourself, leave caneri alone, and redo your server so we can all stop listening to you whine.
(A note to the OP (Joydeep): I apologize for what's gone on in this thread. It seems the one continues to deny, and won't pull his head out of his cloud.)
