Attack of the bots - JHOW - 04.12.2011

Hello, I have a server 0.3C. He is being attacked by bots, those who leave the server that is not being filled. Is there anything I can do to prevent this kind of attack?

Thanks

Well, I believe there are hosts powerful with anti-ddosers, if you mean that you're having DOS' attacks into your server. and you can script an include to avoid this, (I believe as I heard in so.)

No, this doesn't seem to be a DDoS attack. Also, an include against DDoS.... Lol'd.

Anyway, are you running the latest server version of 0.3c? IIRC, these have a fix applied against such attacks.

Don't criticize the English of others when your English isn't good either.

0.3c R5 and 0.3d got Anti-DDoS protection?

Re: Attack of the bots - Coffeemonster - 04.12.2011

Not anti-ddos, there is no such thing existing. I know there is firewalls and such what claim to be undossable, but nothing is perfect.
R5 and 3d has improvements on the security anyways, therefore a better option to have.

Without trying to be rude, I'm pretty sure DDoS protection does exist.

Couldn't an IP limitation prevent the servers from being DDoS'ed?

No, there's no such thing as "anti-DDoS", there are preventative measures you can take, such as using iptables and CISCO Guard (which are very expensive), but nothing is 100% secure against DDoS attacks, unless it has no way of external connections incoming.

They promise protection, but they don't say it's 100% secure. Some attacks can be protected by iptables and Cisco Guard, and some can't, it really depends on the volume of attack.
