CSF Firewall Situation

[nightstryke]

So has there been a census on what to do about Firewalls with DirectAdmin yet?
I did see that DA updated to v15.00 of CSF as that's the last release, but now that the waytotheweb github is gone, we're kind of SOL with a Firewall Solution with DA unless we can keep using CSF and just configure it not to look for updates of the Firewall right?

I have done some digging and I found someone running this fork.
Has anyone tried this one yet?

https://github.com/Aetherinox/csf-firewall

And there's a website too

https://docs.configserver.dev/

What are everyone's thought on switching to this for updates? Is anyone using this fork?

I did see that DA updated to v15.00 of CSF

15.05 is the latest version and actively maintained by DA Custom Build it self , but feel free to use thirdparty CSF solution you desire

Well i saw the post over there https://forum.directadmin.com/threads/csf-future-on-directadmin-—-where-do-we-stand-6-months-after-the-shutdown.82025/ but no one is actually saying what DirectAdmin or they are doing. I've checked the alternatives listed and the only active ones are Aetherinox's CSF, and Centmin's version of CSF. Sentinel is a no go apparently the dev gave up.

Aetherinox does have install option for DA though.

Even in the times when the CSF/LFD developers were in business, one could have counted 2-3 alternatives to their software. The market is free, so anyone is welcomed here) So you might try the forks and share your experience.
