I just installed a brand new DA server w/CentOS 6.5. There are no domains on this account yet the mainlog file is flooding with errors. I'm not sure why. I have no experience with CSF as previously I used APF & BFD.
pastebin [dot] com/Q4BYUSMr
Can someone please help me with this?

that url doesn't work.
Paste the info here instead of pastebin.

The URL did work but I put the expiration date at 1 day. I didn't think it would take as long to get a response.
I re-installed CSF though and it seems to be working better.
However... Is it normal for it to be telling me that directadmin, apache, mysql, etc are suspicious programs?? What factors does it use to determine this?
I saw that I can add them to the csf.pignore file, but I would think that it would leave the server more vulnerable if I keep ignoring all the programs, wouldn't it?

This is not a payed forum, so, the responses can take a while.
About your question if it is normal about suspicious programs? for definition, any program is considered suspicious to a firewall because that is its job and the sys admin has to set the firewall to know which ones are allowed. In this case csf.pignore is used to tell CSF which one are ok to run, just you have to be careful on what to add to that file.
