blast007probably another AI bot scraping attack :P00:01
bryjenserver list is back, but not the forum00:01
blast00740+ load average00:02
blast007I disabled the forums for now, and it's dropping quickly.00:03
*** Tobbi is back00:04
blast00715800 requests from one IP00:22
Juestblast007: put goaway/anubis/whatever when?00:33
*** bryjen <bryjen!~bryjen@2603:6010:7a04:7681:b68c:9dff:fecf:1169> has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving)00:38
blast007that's the last resort, not the first00:45
blast007I think one issue is that our phpBB is still using MyISAM tables, which only supports table-level locking.  New installs use InnoDB, which supports row-level locking.00:50
blast007I saw a lot of processes working with session table waiting on table level locks00:51
Juestmigrate to that then?00:51
blast007yeah00:51
blast007I'll leave the forums off for now until I can test such a conversion.00:59
Juestno global auth then?01:13
blast007global auth works without the forum vhost being accessible01:16

SpringTankMaybe something fail2ban can mitigate if you give it the proper config? (Im not well versed in net facing stuff)08:50
SpringTankfail2ban is designed for banning ip's that are causing errors though, so might not be the best fit.08:51
*** I_Died_Once <I_Died_Once!~I_Died_On@c-98-219-34-189.hsd1.ga.comcast.net> has joined #bzflag09:48
blast007I think the issue is mostly the database tables right now.09:50
blast007The one with the 15k requests wasn't making them quickly.  They were leaving multiple seconds between each request, so that should have been plenty.09:51
