Mumble-Server!
ankhtahr:
It has been for a while.
You might have experienced some downtime today. Sorry for that. I actually had forgotten to install fail2ban on the server, so it was flooded with automated brute force SSH login attempts.
mtmerrick:
well now i feel foolish. >_<

What attracts them? I mean, I've been running SSH servers for years at home and at work, on the default port, and I get constant login attempts of course - but never to the level that they impact performance or make me think "DoS".
ankhtahr:
I don't know. It was multiple servers with multiple tries per second. Maybe it was DoSing because of something else. I found some strange log entries which could point to hardware failure at the provider. (apparently the server rebooted twice) Anyway, as soon as I had installed fail2ban most of the login attempts were blocked and the server has been running stable since.
ankhtahr:
Why didn't anybody tell me that there was a certificate warning when joining the server? I just fixed the permission problem that caused it.
Anyway, anybody up for Mumble this evening? I don't have anything else to do.
