Read error from server: Broken pipe
« on: September 06, 2008, 03:16:05 AM »
I've been getting hit everyday by some kids and the services are crashing every time. Is there a way to prevent this type of attack?

[Sep 05 16:04:44 2008] Ignored message from zRtyKfTcRsS: ":zRtyKfTcRsS PRIVMSG nickserv :help"

The attack is massive, this is the last portion, before the services crash.

Please advise...

Use spamfilter nick match, or use proxy scanners.
There's no way to prevent it, if they're connected to server.
If they're connected then it's like regular user.

I'm using BOPM and AKILL.

consider lowering the sendq and receiveq of your client blocks...

Are you running UnrealIRCd? if so can you give us some examples of the nicks the drones are using please? The reason I ask is if they follow a patten, it may be possible to spamfilter them.

Thanks guys for the response.

I am using UnrealIRCD 3.2.7

This is a sample of how they are achieving the crashing of the services:

[Sep 06 16:02:27 2008] Read error from server: Broken pipe

Again this is just a fraction of the logs.

When i restart services that email is changed and the crash is inevitable.
I use BOPM also.

Please advise...

Oh goody, those nicks are easy.

As an oper with type:
/spamfilter add u gline - Botnet! ^(?-i)[a-z][A-Z][a-z][a-z][A-Z][a-z][A-Z][a-z][A-Z][a-z][A-Z](?i)!

That should catch them all.
