I am using this tutorial with my web server. Currently I am under attack with so many web crawler. It is eating my bandwidth by downloading so many files (zip file). I thouroughly research on how to prevent this. I already used cloudflare but I need to enable the "I am under attack" setting in order to prevent this badbot. But the "I am under attack" settings is very annoying for my visitors. I also try to block the IP address and it's working fine without enabling the "I am under attack" settings. The problem is if i'm not online and I can't ban/block the IP address manually. I found this tutorial that enable us to ban the IP address using fail2ban. But I believe that this tutorial is not inline or compatible with ispconfig 3. The line that I doubt on the tutorial is this "logpath = /var/log/nginx*/*access*.log" In ispconfig 3, the log files is located under /var/log/ispconfig/http/ and not under /var/log/nginx. So anyone know how to configure fail2ban to comply with ispconfig 3? I desperately need and answer to prevent badbots. Thank you
