Yesterday one of my customers which i've migrated to a new server was blocked in CSF with this line. From what i know he was doing is that he was using phpmyadmin to remove "views" which were not properly migrated and recreate those. However, i cannot seem to find out why he was blocked. Can...

Unfortunately it also is failing on the commandline @mangelot . I did not open ports to the payment provider since it has to be done on IP level and i would need to unblock hosts.

How can i allow "ALL" curl (outgoing) requests from my server to external sites? In this case it was a POST request to a payment provider. I tried adding curl to the csf.plist file but still requests to an IP (which i could not find in any of the IPtables or .deny lists) failed. Only after...

Related to my other post where I ruled out CSF to be culprit i am continuing my investigation what can cause the ERR_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT issues i see on my server. I have also ruled out http2 since by removing the http2 protocol from /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-phpmodules.conf like this (old)...

@Richard G if i can't find my IP in the brute force manager, and all access to my server is sometimes not possible (for about 1-2 minutes) from my IP; where can i look at next? After this time all is resolved but it sucks that i get these intermitted connection problems.

I have issues with clients connecting to my websites. I think i might have tracked it down to ipads with safari causing that they are not able to connect to my server; Does anybody see anything strange in the config below which could cause a 'temporary' ban on IPs (within 5 minutes the site...

I am running PHP-FPM for my domains and i have installed imagick, for some (older) domains i need to have access to the 'convert' application and 'quota' application (and only those ones). Is it safe to enable system & exec then? Since all processes run as user anyway?

I come from PHP 5 (mcrypt) and need to migrate to libsodium. Even tough sodium should be part of PHP 7.2 by default, without the need for a PECL extension, all sodium function calls failed. My DA install is 100% fresh, with only PHP 7.2 (CentOS 7 with php-fpm). Here is what i did to make it...

If i want to tweak the memory limit for a Mangento 2 install, without increasing the max memory limit for my entire server, i think i should use this guide; https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=622 Question is (since some Magento 2 commands you run on CLI) would a [PATH=/home/...] be...

In the past i've compiled APCu 4.0.6.1 from source and installed it on my server. I am migrating to PHP-FPM 7.x for my new server setup and i was wondering if there is a possibility to install APCu on PHP7. Reason i am asking is because i see conflicting messages; On the one hand i see that APC...

On this page: I need a firewall. What are my options? The following guide is mentioned: How to block IPs with Brute Force Monitor in DirectAdmin using CSF There is an automated install script in there, but that skips 2 of the optional steps in the manual guide. I am running CentOS7 and just...
