hello,

i'm installing csf on cloudlinux server with cagefs enabled. when doing Check Server Security , the test SYSLOG_CHECK option check kept showing in red.

RESTRICT_SYSLOG is set to 3 and i can see mysyslog group is created with gid 494

on other server which is centos based, this doesn't happen. SYSLOG_CHECK option check shows in green after i set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to 3

is this supposed to...

I just wanted to double check, if I set up correctly in csf.deny , blocking of all outgoing mail to particular IP. I did it like this:

tcp|out|d=25|d=1.2.3.4 # Description (do not delete)

Not sure if it should be as the way above or tcp|out|s=25|d=1.2.3.4 # Description (do not delete)
:confused:

When I use /etc/rc.d/init.d/csf restart it says that I should use csf -r.
That works oke.

However, normally you often also should restart LFD and that worked before (if I'm not mistaken) with lfd -r too.
This does not work anymore, if you do a lfd -r to restart lfd, you get the following error notice in lfd.log and it wont restart:
*Error* attempt to start lfd when it is already running, at...

I am not sure if this is possible as I have not been able to find it, but can you configure CSF to look at another logfile and based on information cause a lock on an IP or PORT based on what it sees?

Example: I have another application that allows people to log on and would like CSF to watch that applications log files and issue a block if they have x number of invalid attempts.

I know I...

Hello,

I am trying to drop all attempts to penetrate our server via FTP from arround 30 countries, so for the moment I am using:
CC_DENY_PORTS = CN,RU,TW,VN,ID,TH,TR,KR,IR,BA,BG,BY,...
CC_DENY_PORTS_TCP = 21
CC_DENY_PORTS_UDP = 21

This is creating a very long list of IP addresses that I can see in the View iptables Rules

My purpose is to only allow 1 country, and drop all others to FTP...

I have been testing it for hours and now could surely say, it's not working the expected way.

I have the following in regex.custom

if (($lgfile eq $config{CUSTOM1_LOG}) and ($line =~ /^\ \ \ user (\S*) not found:/)) {
return ( Failed domain.org directory authentication from ,$1, DomainOrgUserNotFound , 3 , 80,443 , 604800 );
}

Despite of settings in custom.regex for port numbers in...

Hello, suddenly I'm getting nf_ct_ftp errors. This happens when a web application is connecting with ftp to localhost:

Is there a way for me to ignore the ip or hostnames of our incoming anti-spam systems in LFD? I am getting relay alerts from LFD. I dont want to completely whitelist the ip from all checks, just these relay checks.

I have noticed that when putting cc deny codes the server performance will go down, here is my cc deny list: ua,tw,ru,al,dz,tr,pl,cz,de if I put them and wget a 1gb file the server will download it at just 6 Mbps, if I leave the field empty I will download the same file at 90mbps.

I need to put the list like this because of hackers of wordpress and joomla sites mostly.

Can anyone help?

Hi,

I wrote a small regex to help me identify ip addresses trying to access my system (hackers) and block them.

For some reason it's not working but the regex was tested and it returned matching results. I'm not sure what I'm missing please help.

Here's the regex I wrote:
# Added for Freeswitch
if (($lgfile eq $config{CUSTOM1_LOG}) and ($line =~ /^.*?\ sofia_reg.c:(.*?) SIP auth failure...

Dear guys, hi!

Is there a way to make LF_SELECT work with custom ports. For example, if I change IMAP port to some 34433, then it doesnt work, as on deny list you only have 143,193 and no custom port is appearing there?

I checked lfd.pl and found a set of default ports there:

if ($config{LF_SELECT} and !$config{LF_TRIGGER}) {
$ports{pop3d} = 110,995 ;
$ports{imapd} = 143,993 ;...

Hi group

This is our first post and welcome to everyone.

Since we recently installed ConfigServer Security & Firewall (csf v6.38), it transpires that some of the third-party enquiry forms we have had running for a number of years without problem have stopped working.

Just wondering if there might be some setting in CSF that we have missed or incorrectly configured that might be causing the...

I recently installed webmin in a BOA (Aegir) server.
Apparently csf is blocking port 10000 used by webmin.
How can I open this port for access?
I got temporary blocked when attempting to access.
Thank you.

Hello.
Is there any ways to limit packets per second from same ip address with csf?
All what i've found is PORTFLOOD - which could limit connections per time, and CONNLIMIT which can limit connections per port.
Our server is under some kind of packet flood(looks like it's a LOIC), so, we really want to know if this restrictions available with csf.
Thanks in advance.

opencart always used, but some time now, I've been having problems with locks ip in the server firewall.

I talked with the server administrator and he told me that the locks are happening due to several simultaneous connections to the database.

I am running simple routines in admin panel as product registration, or module configuration.

One of my servers for some reason is not resolving Global DYNDNS Domains in LFD... I get this error for each domain:

Feb 2 13:01:19 flow1 lfd : Global DynDNS: Lookup for failed - Unable to resolve

Does anyone know why LFD would not be able to resolve hostnames? All my other servers resolve OK. All servers have all the same software versions.

we use

openvz centos 6

I have install CSF on a VPS with WHM and when i try to restart i get this:

You have an unresolved error when starting csf:
Error: ip6tables command failed, you appear to be missing a required ip6tables module, at line 622 in /usr/sbin/csf

You need to restart csf successfully to remove this warning, or delete /etc/csf/csf.error

I frequently see authentication lfds that include an IP that looks like it might be on the local subnet for my server, followed by a second IP that is a remote IP, see for example below:

fixed_login authenticator failed for ( ) :1849

Is that 192.168 IP address something I might want to report to my vendor , perhaps an open relay or something like that? Thanks for a newbie question,

Charlie

I am using this setting can you tell me why I have to change things around now for syslog emails alerts to work is my firewall going to be ok as it is or do I need to make some changes please tell me.
