    Bit of a strange one here. Usually i can just block an ip from netstat and problem solved but this time all that shows up is
    tcp        0      0 localhost.localdomain:http  msnbot-65-55-24-236.s:53841 TIME_WAIT
    tcp        0      0 localhost.localdomain:http  hst-164-224.duomenuce:56733 CLOSE_WAIT
    tcp        0      0 localhost.localdomain:http  hst-164-224.duomenuce:53713 CLOSE_WAIT
    tcp        0      0 localhost.localdomain:http  hst-164-224.duomenuce:46631 CLOSE_WAIT
    tcp        0      0 localhost.localdomain:http  hst-164-224.duomenuce:49695 CLOSE_WAIT
    

    iptables blocking wont work. Any solution for this? Some fool from Latvia is repeatedly at this. No idea why it benefits them in any way.

    The host might be hst-164-224.duomenucentras.lt

    duomenucentras.it supplies servers for rent.

    What's showing up in your web server's logs? How about using Fail2Ban to monitor your server logs and generate iptables rules?

    Cheers for the help folks. I just went out and left it. Just back and got this command off my host
    netstat -ntu | awk '{print $5}' | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

    Really nice way of finding whos attacking. never had to use it before as an ip would just show up. Pretty much have all bases covered with that as it only happens once every couple of months and im able to stop it fairly quickly once i have the ip.

    Still no idea why it benefits someone to DDOS the site. Probably some gob****e with a wrong ip or something.

    DDos them back would be my advice.

    Well is there any reason why someone would want to cause harm to your website?

    If not then its just someone getting their ****s and giggles.

    As much as id love to i just cant be bothered.

    Makes no sense at all why they do it. Its not even possible that someones losing money from competition as its not a money site.

    Sorted now anyway so couldnt care now.

    Cheers
