Where is the mod_qos configuration file?

[craigedmonds]

I am running WHM Server Version: Apache/2.2.26 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.26 OpenSSL/1.0.1e-fips Apache mod_bwlimited/1.4 mod_qos/10.10

I am having issues with mod_qos, just does not seems to be working like it is on my other other servers.

Example Screenshot: - Removed -

I would like to be able to edit the mod_qos config file and tweak it a bit but cant find it.

Anyone know the path to it?

Hello

Try adding the values to the /usr/local/apache/conf/includes/pre_main_global.conf file and rebuilding the Apache configuration file via:

/scripts/rebuildhttpdconf

There is a Mod_QoS example on this document:

How To Mitigate Slowloris Attacks

Thank you.

Okay, sorry for my ignorance.

I do the following?

1. open up /usr/local/apache/conf/includes/pre_main_global.conf (i did this and the file was empty)

2. add these lines:

<IfModule mod_reqtimeout.c>
RequestReadTimeout header=20-40,MinRate=500 body=20,MinRate=500
</IfModule>

3. run: /scripts/rebuildhttpdconf

I also ran /scripts/restartsrv_apache.

No change though, ip's still hitting the server a million miles an hour.

The document I provided was not intended to provide a solution for an attack on your server. It was simply to show you how to add custom Mod_QoS rules to your Apache configuration. Discussion of the attack you have reported is occurring in your other open thread.

Thank you.

Little bit late, but i think this is helpfull information and was missing.

I would like to be able to edit the mod_qos config file and tweak it a bit but cant find it.

i did not found any "qos" named config file in /usr/local/apache nor in /etc

i think smartest way to configure it is to go to:
WHM » Service Configuration » Apache Configuration » Include Editor >> "Pre VirtualHost Include" >> "All versions"

and there paste that code
<IfModule mod_qos.c>
...mod qos config lines from http://opensource.adnovum.ch/mod_qos/ ...
</IfModule>
