I reckon it's sorted for now

Ian did most of the hard work, I was just in the right place at the right time to apply the config changes.

Looks like the main culprits were in the last few IP's I put in the Firewall rules that didn't load at the time because the site was saturated. Completing the loading looks like we are sorted for now. Why is it always the last ones you come to that does the trick? Sorry Wendy, you can never be the ...

Good to see some regulars back on

That's good to hear Pete, there was one hiccup when I accidentally blocked Wendy :biggrin2: All sorted now though. This did involve removing a couple of the newly applied firewall rules but, hopefully, as the range is UK based, it may not impact things. CPU usage is still good and there's nowt weird...

'tis next on my list

Last hour CPU Tomorrow morning will be the real test

I'd best get back to my day job now

I have managed to apply the firewall changes, the lists of AWS IP addresses that Ian added are now actively blocked. I have seen a big drop in CPU usage and will continue to monitor this afternoon for anything unusual. A bit later, CPU is around 22% which is promising. I can see regular users logged...

Prince Charming thought it wise to avoid a sexual harassment charge this time

She did miss it, it just started as she got to Sainsbury's after walking down Windy Bank. I've retrieved her, two again of shopping and a pair of repaired shoes

Lovely, P has just set off for Colne

Found this painting in a charity shop, looks like it could be valuable. I think it's a Constable

I'm with Cathy, a Huntsman.

A bit of patching up after the bathroom extractor installation. I had to exhaust through the wall in my office as there wasn't enough room above the bathroom window lintel.

Checking in, printing boarding passes and luggage labels for our upcoming cruise
Not long to go.

I emailed abuse@amazonaws.com yesterday with a list of their server IP addresses that are spamming the site. I have been told they take these things seriously.

Might not be everyone's cup of tea but we're enjoying This Town on the BBC iPlayer. Some good music and a few sub plots. Up to episode 4 and it's developing well.

I've upgraded the mySQL database that's 'behind' the site. The monitoring is currently showing a decrease in the CPU load average, not sure if we're out of the woods yet. I will continue to monitor.

There is activity going on 'under the bonnet', Ian is researching another service that Ionos can provide to block the IP addresses. Hopefully he'll be able to provide an update on progress later on.

We're booked in at Fabellos in Foulridge on Wednesday next week
Good news is that Fabellos are now opening during the day for breakfast, coffee, cake and other nibbles. 'The Wharf' is no more it's all Italian.
