I use a combination of suhosin, mod_security and scripts to
automatically respond to attacks. Something like Fail2Ban
<http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page> or CSF
<http://www.configserver.com/cp/csf.html> will automatically take the
appropriate actions based on your preferences and email you about it.
Hope this helps...

Good day.
My question is about the strategy practice of stopping the evil doers at my
server - as it is a server I can not turn it off, yet I would not that the
things that some guys try to do will be repeated. Therefore, may, You would
share Your experience/knowledge how to stop them.
The situation: I see evil doing in logs. I know the addresses they did use for
that.
What is the best way (1. Effective; 2. Easy to commit) to stop them?
My own considerations for now: to use iptables to ban those IPs, but here I
have the following problem: if I exclude by IP - it is a lot of IPs. If I
exclude by its ranges - I risk to exclude goo users from our public services
(web, email) others - the same is for the ISP nets - as their users can change
their IPs easily. So... please, any suggestions.
Thank You for Your time and effort.
Best regards,
Sthu Deus.
