Hello

What's the problem if the both security on same server CSF+APF ?


and why it show me :

Remove APF from the server. You must not run both APF with csf on the same server


Thank you

Because they both are front ends for the iptables firewall. You can't have both fighting for control of your iptables fw. :)

Most definiately! Drop the APF, it doesn't do half the job the CSF/LFD does. It's also less of a resource hog if setup correctly. I can't count how many times, when we where using APF in the past, that it messed up one of our servers ... BIG time!

Just my $0.02 worth ;)

What is "setup correctly"?
