schestowitzLast night's attack even took out the DB, for the first time AFAIK.Jan 29 05:46
schestowitzDid you notice the pattern/s of the attack? I was asleep at the time. More in IRC logs.Jan 29 05:46
schestowitzRianne noticed slowdowns at first, didn't want to wake me up.Jan 29 05:46
schestowitzThe general response is to look into .htaccess and uncomment the right bits depending on attack pattern.Jan 29 05:46

schestowitzAt least we now know it can end up crashing the DBJan 29 06:11

schestowitzI have read the whole thing from start to finish and did not notice a single typo.Jan 29 06:20
schestowitzOnce this is published, as I really like the way it has been put in writing (and I agree; heard the same before, seen brainwashed MSFT employees), can we crosspost in Techrights and link to the original, please?Jan 29 06:20

schestowitzI think I previously gave .htaccess pointers as well.Jan 29 07:36
schestowitzLet's see if that happens a second time. I think it's the first such DB crash since Easter. When it was first set up. I didn't check logs (lack of time due to work 1-9am), but later I realised DDOS caused the incident.Jan 29 07:36
