Thank you for your recent Tweet regarding cxs and ModSecurity v2.9.

I have tried to edit /usr/local/apache/conf/modsec2.user.conf

As detailed in your blog post:
http://blog.configserver.com/?p=2522

However I see currently no mention of CXS in the configuration file:

"and add the line above after the cxs ModSecurity rule and then restart httpd."

Have I missed an important change I should have made when installing CXS in the first place, some years ago?

Thank you!

It sounds like cxs scanning using modsecurity was never enabled on your server. It is not necessarily a requirement, especially if you have cxswatch running. However, if you want to use cxs scanning with modsecurity, the easiest way to add it is to use our new cPanel modsecurity vendor as per this blog post:

Ah OK. Thank you.

So if I use your vendor rules, do I not need to worry about the setting change for cxs/modsec 2.9 compatibility at all?

ie. I have not set this line anywhere:

SecUploadKeepFiles RelevantOnly

Should I?

TY!!

No, it will add that line automatically so you do not need to worry about it.

Brill. TY.
