DDOS - eXPerience™ - 02-18-2010

How i can check if someone is ddosing my forum?


RE: DDOS - Jordan L. - 02-18-2010

What errors / signs do you have that makes you think it is?


RE: DDOS - eXPerience™ - 02-18-2010

Some members say me forum is opening really slow.


RE: DDOS - Jordan L. - 02-18-2010

It may just be server lag or something.. doubt it's a DDOS. I had that problem all the time.. then I switched host and it's fine now. Smile


RE: DDOS - eXPerience™ - 02-18-2010

I have really good host. They are best in my country.

Do a traceroute and see if you have any packet loss and where it's at.

You can use something like Pingplotter.

Also view your logs...you may see constant activity on one page.

See if your host offers bandwidth charts or other stats you can review to see if you have any spikes in usage.

Thanks Omni i will try it and reply here. I read somewhere that you become a professional in the DDoS because of HF.


Edit: I used that program and everything is good Smile

only way is have root access to your server and read firewall logs.
I had freebsd server and run shell company once.
I had many ddos attacks from kiddies.
you gonna have to be good with iptables or ipfw.
also you would need good router or hardware firewall that filter attacks.

This is good right?

OpenBSD's PF (Packet Filter) is imho the best firewall ever.
