User keep getting blocked

Posted by ibaker, 05-30-2013, 09:25 PM
I am using CSF on my dedicated server and everything was working fine. I had a video Chat Room application (123FlashChat) added and users are randomly being temporarily blocked from my site for an hour when using it. It is a forum web site and when a user gets blocked they can't even find my domain. Here are the stats: Can anyone help?

From the log, most of those are legitimate blocks for FTP and SMTP login failures. Might be a hint in there, with that one that had 360 connections. Your best bet is to watch that log and see if you can spot the bans caused by the script.

You should set the connection limit per Ip in CSF to a higher value as it is possible that your application spawns simultaneous connections after the initial connection.

From the provided logs, the best solution will be to increase the number of connection values in your CSF configuration. The protection can only be applied to the TCP protocol. Syntax for the CONNLIMIT setting: CONNLIMIT is a comma separated list of: port;limit So, a setting of CONNLIMIT = "22;5,80;20" means: 1. Only allow up to 5 concurrent new connections to port 22 per IP address 2. Only allow up to 20 concurrent new connections to port 80 per IP address.
