DR3M3L 4 Posted May 12, 2015 RWI is currently under attack and I can't do anything but wait. This SYN attack went trough every security system we're running and it's beyond my knowledge to get up and running again at this point without doing any harm to the machine. I'm keeping an eye on the situation and hope to see them go again soon. Share this post Link to post

DR3M3L 4 Posted May 12, 2015 Looks like my IP banning system is up and running with good results... They are now being banned in about 10 seconds after they start spooling. However, due to the heavy attack I have set the BAN limits quite low, if you get a 503 error you are probably banned for 600 seconds. I'll raise the limits again when the attack is going away to make sure no non-attackers are banned again. Thanks all, looks like we can enjoy the dark side again. Share this post Link to post
DR3M3L 4 Posted May 12, 2015 I shouldn't have said anything..... Boom, there we go, thousands of IP's are sending smaller packets.... We're down again, and will be for quite some time I'm afraid. Don't expect the site to be up in the next hour as I also need to drive home, will update later. Share this post Link to post
