Clam AV updates on Zimbra 8

Posted on

There are probably many blogs or posts online about how to use “unofficial clam AV signatures” with mail servers but this one is accurate.  You don’t need super secret special github scripts someone maintains.  No, you need a brain.  I will admit that some things are harder than others, like…if you wanted to use LetsEncrypt […]

Ubuntu UFW script to block failed auth attempts

Posted on

I whipped this up (and it’s not sexy) to block failed authentication attempts on a few POSTFIX servers I manage.  I might use fail2ban if things get out of hand but currently the server just has UFW (Uncomplicated FireWall) that’s built into the Ubuntu OS. #!/bin/bash # Get all the authentication failures from the mail […]

TLD blocking in POSTFIX MTA

Posted on

I was looking at how how I might block TLD’s (Top Level Domains) with the POSTFIX MTA and I couldn’t do it using a pcre table – most of the stuff I found used pcre.  When I did an apt-get to install it on my Ubuntu Mail Server it wanted to uninstall and upgrade a […]

CPanel firewall-d ports

Posted on

I’ve read all over the Interwebs about firewalld and everyone makes it so complicated…in a way. I use firewalld on my CentOS servers which many run CPanel.  I had a problem with cphulk today and I accidentally rebooted it (ctrl + alt + del crap on a VM with a keyboard snafoo…fat finger…ugh!). So two […]

Review your logs!

Posted on

Reviewing your logs sounds boring but it’s a necessity.  You can easily have an ssh session open in a small putty window while tailing a log while doing other work and if you glance at it once in a while you might see interesting things. For example, hacker losers of the world like to dump […]

TLD block how to on CPanel & why it matters

Posted on

TLD – that means “Top Level Domain” like .com, .net, .edu, and the like…all TLD’s we’re familiar with.  In their infinite wisdom ICAAN started allowing anyone and their brother with $100k to make their own (partly a money grab, partly needed with IPv6’s expansion of available IP’s on the interwebs). This means TLD’s are ever […]

Hacker Bots

Posted on

Hacker bots are irritating.  A web server or some other server online gets hacked, malware gets installed and suddenly the server starts attacking other servers. Here’s an example of a “POST” to jam in WordPress logon credentials, a.k.a “Brute Force” your logon: 124.123.76.91 – – [11/Aug/2016:16:30:48 -0400] “POST /wp-login.php HTTP/1.1″ 200 1571 “-” “Mozilla/5.0 (Windows […]

Internet Neighborhood Watch

Do you know why block lists are the past and Whackers for Hackers is the future? Because firewalls (even “cloud based” firewalls) only benefit the few who use them and one at a time.  There’s no single source to block things for everyone.  Think antivirus here.  How many antivirus companies are there and how many […]
