I'm running DirectAdmin for a year now, and lately we are experiencing problems with Apache.
Probably someone is trying to hack, flood, ddos or what so ever.
The main problem is allot of data will be used (viewable on the switch port statistics), but DirectAdmin is only counting part of it.
In this case 200GB in two days were send to the outside world, en DirectAdmin justs sees 40GB over the full month of januari.
People arround me told it could be possible some users are using the IP/~user function to serve their website, and that this data is not calculated in DirectAdmin's statistics.
Now we want to disable the ability to view websites just on IP, but we want to know how we do this?
Can someone give us some suggestions?
An other point which is not related to Apache is to install a firewall, but which one do you prefer?
Hopefully some of you can help me out!
Regards,
Mike
