IP Deny Manager NOT Working

[aingaranweb]

Hi Everyone,

I have a bunch of IPs added to the list in IP Deny Manager (Search Engine Bot IPs) But, when I look at the Raw Access log, there still able to access the site.

What can I do?

Thanks,

a few things

You could do a few things.

First - place those ip's into iptables as a deny...

iptables -I INPUT -s 1.1.1.1 -j DROP

* (where 1.1.1.1 would be the ip address you want to block)

If you are being attacked or abused by a particular host, just enter the following command to deny all access to the host:

/sbin/route add -host <ip address> reject

Replace with the IP address of the host you want to block. The address will stay blocked until you bounce the interface. Alternatively, you could allow access by:

/sbin/route del -host <ip address> reject

For a more permanent rejection, of course, use your firewall - or install one.

Chirpy has an excellent one on here - do a search for lfd and take the sticky found there.

Its free - but you need to know what your doing prior to installing it.

Get stuck - send a PM to me

The RSS feed seeker bot... I've also aded it to the robots.txt file for the user, but it still manages to get through...

Well, I've since added the IPs to APF.. My question is, why isn't IP Deny Manager working..
