    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    Yep, me too, but at least they finally did it. However, if you would define it as abandonwear you wouln't still keep using without any addition either right? :)

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Define "supported"? IMHO in software land "forever" means "as long as it's available and no hard EOL is declared or a company does not go broke or get's sold". So that's what I learned in the past years what forever or lifetime means. They already can do that, but if they do, the connection...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Well... one is never too old to learn either and I learned something new today, at least for me this was a bit new how this worked. ;) Backporting in the OS means nothing more then only in excessive cases (even while EOL), the MariaDB devs would create a security fix after something very very...

    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    You were the one being rude. And again... where is the proof here? And why didn't you complaint abou tthis years ago with CSF itself then? Again, whining whining whining without any kind of proof or good argument and now also insulting us. Says more of you than about us. Also, if it only does...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    For what else, we only do hosting? It's only MariaDB which will go EOL and it's not 1 but 6 licenses and 3 servers in use. Switching means 45/month extra (when converting these 3), so with MariaDB from the OS update, we probably can go the last few years until our pension. Most of the...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Might.... but still the other counter arguments are still present, as is my question what be so bad with my idea to have DA to allow us to downgrade to MariaDB 10.5 and then have the OS support the updates. If I remember correctly this was tested, should be even a thread about it somewhere...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    1.) one needs a second server/vps to put the database on, which not everyone can afford or want (just for database) 2.) you loose the connection to manage it from DA so you have to make all databases manually? Or can this still be done via Directadmin? 3.) you then will depend on external...

    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    You can keep lying about that it doesn't work all you want, nobody will believe you without any proof. So you can keep whining, but you were asked several times to proof your point, which you still haven't because you can't. Seems you have been a sleep too. There have been lots changes from 2010...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Yep I know, but then it is what you say, you can't manage the database in Directadmin. So it would be easier if we could downgrade to 10.5 and then have the OS keep doing the updates and we could keep managing the database from Directadmin. No special development of DA was required than anymore...

    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    I think you're the one with your head up your tail and as people know me and know I can believe some people think, but you make a lot of statements without any arguments or proove and this is an all too easy way to duck out. Clear nonsense. As CSF does not mimic anything, it's a shell to...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Unfortunately I don't agree with this. DA has done his best just to not do this so people could have a bit longer from their lifetime licenses, especially the ones bought at a later time. Ofcourse I agree that some will use ancient stuff, but it's not DA's task to protect users against this...

    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    Well... if you want to discuss, then come with arguments or proof. Becuse it has and still is working ad designed. Otherwise it would have rained complaints which it didn't. Also panels like cPanel (expensive) and DA were using it by default. For sure they would have not integrated it as it...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Correct, however, there might be a slight chance that Directadmin would provide an option so the OS can keep the MariaDB installation up to date. Almalinux 9 has updates for MariaDB 10.5 until 2032 theoretically. That would mean that if we would downgrade to MariaDB 10.5 the OS could provide us...

    Advice on AlmaLinux 10: fail2ban instead of discontinued CSF?

    IMHO you're wrong here. CSF is just a iptables/nftables shell and dead in the water does not mean it's really dead. What new development is required when everything is working as designed? It's a bit of a narrow minded idea to call an application garbage just because it's legacy. So the lifetime...

    Rollback Feature, maybe??

    I think the idea was not only for VPS systems but also for dedicates. I could be wrong tho.

    Rollback Feature, maybe??

    I like the idea but it might be hard to realise. Just rolling back DA would probably not fix a lot. But often there are updates connected to DA so when rolling back one thing, some others might be required to rollback to which could make things more difficult. And when we are talking about...

    How to change SpamAssassin default user settings

    I will make some explanation here because not everything is clear and for sure nothing about this is documented, except the example .json file. Some things are quite clear, some are not. So my example above works. I removed the blacklist and whitelist because I want the user to determine that...

    Ah great, that's nice to hear! In that case you managed to proove it somehow and they are really fair. So great you got your license back! (y) (y)
