Yes, I did, but for the moment, it only seems to have found one reject. Most of the registration spammers are from China, so I have blocked their IPs. As they continue to come back, I will block ranges of IPs, then finally they will go away. I have put in a new registration process, which should help, if it doesn't I'll find something, but it is a pity to have to spend time defending a new site from spammers. Apparently with wordpress they want to be able to post comments that are advertisement -- at least that is what the spam plugins for wordpress say. I am going to tune Akismet a bit to see if it cannot help more ... Thanks for reminding me. Kern PS: If any of you real Bacula users want to post comments (they are moderated) you need to register, so I apologize in advance for the complexity. Wordpress is really great when it comes to posting a message, blog, ... it is so easy and if I set the right category it just automatically is posted correctly, but on the other hand with modern tools such as wordpress there are a lot of browsers that have problem with .css -- one of the bigger problems for the moment seems to be Chrome, which is used by at least 30% of the people visiting the site. If you have problems, please try Firefox -- I know it works correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-devel mailing list Bacula-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-devel
