Recently I enabled LF_Netblock for Class C and NetBLock Count=2 after seeing many scrapers/bots coming from the same networks. I also enabled notifications.
After restarting CSF/LFD I got my first notification (as expected) in minutes.. Then, it went silent, not blocking any other Class C's even though in the logs I could see many hits that should have triggered a NetBlock.
I disabled the option and re-enabled it, and the exact same thing happened again. Got the first notice and Netblock within minutes, then no more after that even though I can see activity in the logs that should have triggered more Netblocks.
So it seems that LF_Netblock works only once, then never again. Is this a bug or am I missing something?
