We migrated clients to a new server using the WHM wizard. Should the standard migration wizard copy the modsec rule files created by CMC or is there something we should manually do?

The two user files I'm referring to:
/etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/ /modsec.conf
/etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/ssl/2_4/ /modsec.conf

On one server, that has been running fine for a couple of years, I notice now that /etc/csf/csf.deny is empty of all IP listings, though it shows the initial remarked text.

I still receive email LFD notices saying there has been permanent bans of IP addresses, and the latest timestamp of the file was the same as the time of the last LFD email.

Please advise.

CSF, great product, thanks.

I need clarification about the error message I am receiving for a particular client.

The xx ip address I know is their office IP address, however the IP address 10.242.59.0 I don't recognise, Google search sees it as a private address.

When CF_ENABLED is set to 1, Is there a log of CSF's interactions with CloudFlare?

Hi,

I have set rules in max.message.size.rules. I test send mail with message size bigger than max.message.size.rules. My test mail did not get reject or send, the status in delivery report only show in progress.

How to reject email that violate max.message.size.rules and return bouncing mail?

Thank You

Hello,

I have a problem with my AWS EC2 VPS.
I have AlmaLinux 8.4 with WHM/cPanel and everything is running very well so far.
But as soon as I enable CSF, my server IPv6 is blocked and my server has no IPv6 anymore.
When I disable it, everything works again.
In CSF I have IPv6 enabled.
Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

I have added a few screenshots

I'm having another issue with CSF blocking inbound emails from Gmail. I logged into multiple gmail accounts and tried to send email to one of our servers and the emails are never received. After I disable CSF firewall i can then receive email from all 3 gmail accounts. I flushed all IP blocks, and added Googles entire IP block 209.85.166.0/255 to CSF ignore. Restarted CSF and still CSF is...

I am trying to install owncloud on a Ubuntu Servers as a docker container.
I am following this documentation.

If I disable CSF all works, but if it's enabled, it doesn't and I see these messages in the logs.

Now, as I see CSF is blocking the traffic between the docker containers or just the port 8080? It's not clear for me.

Any tips?

I setup CSF with ansible using the following config:...

Hi there

The default refresh rate appears to be 5 seconds.

Is there a config setting somewhere to change this to e.g. 15 seconds?

I have PT_USERMEM set to zero but I still get the emails. How is this possible? So much so that the email address that it sends too is now blocked by outlook. So now I just get the email failed messages.

Yes I know I should either stop my scripts from doing it or buy another 100 CPUs but I just want to stop the crazy amount of emails I get.

no list of option. It only shows:

# csf -h
csf: v14.10 (cPanel)

That's normal?.

Btw, Is there some way to reinstall withtout loosing the configuration?

Hi,

My client is getting ban from CSF every time when he changes the ip. His ip is dynamic, I'm trying to whitelist him but once the ip is changing he is getting ban.

He is using Jazler to upload from radio the song titles in website using ftp connection.

How we can fix this issue to allow his ftp connection by hostname or by domain?

Thank you

Is there a way to blacklist an IP based on the repeated failures like the following logs?

I get these from journalctl not sure if they are also logged somewhere else.

Is it possible to do advance filtering using the command line?

It seems like the only possible way is to write the directly to the rule file?
