Bluto Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 If the Error Log has 5000+ errors from the same IP address, that address probably should automatically be banned in the software. What do you think? The software does see that the errors are happening from the same IP. I'm reading the log. It would be great if there was a feature which flagged or banned IPs which are throwing THOUSANDS of errors. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Lindy Posted June 25, 2020 Management Share Posted June 25, 2020 Could you please give an example of the error itself? Personally, I feel the error is more important than the person causing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluto Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 Sure. The one below is 208 errors. I have others that go into the thousands. Having 1 IP throwing so many errors, maybe it could be banned for admin review? Let the admin set the amount of errors. Today I turned off the Post Before Registering. Maybe nothing can be done since the search engine bots would also be banned, I assume. But at least I could check those IPs out and flag them as valid. Maybe a ban list with the DNS info so I can tell if it's a Google Bot? Have one check box to remove (x)and one check box to put on a "do not ban" list (green check)? Just a thought.

CoffeeCake Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 From what is visible in the URLs in your screenshot, it looks like an attempt to find or use an exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm moving to another server so I'll deal with this then. @Aiwa had some great insight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
