Re: csf sending invalid emails from root
Nope. I'm still getting these unnecessary notices, and sent to an invalid address. Is there a way to submit a bug ticket? Frustrated!

Re: csf sending invalid emails from root
I think the answer is to select WHM > Plugins > ConfigServer Security & Firewall > Firewall Configuration, and make the following changes: 1. LF_ALERT_TO=EmailAddressForNotices 2. LF_EMAIL_ALERT=NO (no alert on IP blocks) 3. LF_CPANEL_ALERT=NO (no alert on normal cPanel usage) You must then go t...

csf sending invalid emails from root
I find CSF very difficult to understand, perhaps because it is so low-level in its configuration. I am getting an email message for every malicious intrusion to my web server, and each message is sent to an invalid address, in spite of editing file /etc/csf/csf.pignore !

Re: Cannot understand lfd error message from system
martinp , thanks for the pointer. My guess is that my PHP tool that I run under cron sometimes hangs because the remote server is hanging while attempting to deliver the desired file. My further guess is that this happens because the Internet is so complex that sometimes it has to keep trying, inst...

Cannot understand lfd error message from system
Can anyone explain exactly what situations cause this message? Has the CRON process been killed or not? What should I do in response to this message? I am not familiar with Linux. Remote server: Centos with CPanel and WHM Local email client: Thunderbird on Windows 8 I deleted many small parts of the...
