    Everyone notice how active their logs have recently become by bot trying to gain access as per subject? These are IoT devies that push a lot of bandwidth (PVRs and such) that are being used for DDoS.

    Curious as to the origin in other's logs as about 90 percent of the origin in mine .ru .. About to iptable Russia off.

    define 'recently'... my system has this pattern for multiple months now. So much so that I can measure increases is use of system resources on the firewall/ipfilter.

    It got to a point where I modified scripts to auto blacklist at the presence of the woord ot attempted login with a blacklisted name. Blacklisted IP's don't get through to the BBS any longer.

    since August 28, I've logged the number of blocked ip from reversable addresses:
    ru 119
    ar 108
    fr 39
    br 591
    co 82
    ro 59
    in 98
    cn 49
    tr 165
    gt 7
    vn 187
    mx 97
    it 45
    cl 30
    th 31
    mk 2
    py 20
    sk 2
    chinamobile 1
    non-reversable IP: 2390

    Majority of mine come from Brazil..

    I may spend more time on my script to do some lookup on the <no name> ip addresses so I can see what group they belong to..

    ... The truest wild beasts live in the most populous places.

    i meant to say havent. but i dont pay much attention.
    now i see stuff once in a while but it isnt crippling my system. and i dont know if it's more than usual because i dont know if i'm being tainted by people talking about it.

    If you're running synchronet you can add the following to text\host.can and it will block connections from hosts that resolve back to .ru:

    *.ru

    I also have the following in mine, since I was getting a lot of nasty connections from these TLD:

    *.tr
    *.br
    *.ru
    *.cn
    *.cz
    *.ro
    *.tw
    *.ua
    *.vn
    *.fr
    *.ar
    *.cl
    *kyivstar.net

    This is really sad that the people from my country are doing this.

    They could use their abilities for something more interesting... I have the
    same problem here, blocked most of offending countries but I can't block Brazil... :(
