Optimize Apache according to the amount of traffic your website is receiving. Or you can switch to an Apache alternative such as Nginx, Lighttpd, Lightspeed, ect.
new load:
root@freebypass-com:~# uptime
19:59:55 up 17 min, 1 user, load average: 0.26, 32.53, 39.05

I think it was another ddos against the server.
Seams to happen when i mention a user on irc.

some of us are lazy and don't feel like rewriting dozens of rewrite rules and everything in those .htaccess files on all of our sites.
my usual configuration for sites that get some traffic is:
nginx > apache mpm event + php5-fpm (and gigabytes of memcache and apc caching).
I would never run the stock apache mpm prefork + mod_php though...that sh*t should be outlawed
I'd call that a DoS not a DDoS
run this as a cron every 5 minutes. It will restart apache if the load averages over xx.xx for x minutes which is usually all it takes to shake off the small type attack you were getting hit with and keep your entire server from crashing.
Code:
<pre>
#!/bin/sh
#*/5 * * * * /bin/apache_check > /dev/null 2>&1
# Bash script that checks apache:
# - Apache running or not, if needed start it up again
# - If server load is higher than 20, restart apache
#
# Script to be ran as cronjob (every 5 minutes)
# */5 * * * * /bin/apache_check > /dev/null 2>&1
echo "Apache checker running at " `date`
run=`ps ax | grep /usr/sbin/apache2 | grep -v grep | cut -c1-5 | paste -s -`
if [ "$run" ];
then
echo "Apache is running"
else
echo "Apache seems to be down, starting it up again"
apache2ctl start
fi
#!/bin/sh
check=`uptime | sed 's/\./ /' | awk '{print $20}'`
if [ $check -gt 8 ]
then
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
fi</pre>Rich, aromatic, Colombian iptables is the best.

You should really use apachectl's status outputsome of us are lazy and don't feel like rewriting dozens of rewrite rules and everything in those .htaccess files on all of our sites.

Enterprise Litespeed is great Apache drop-in replacement if you have budget

How can I "unthank" a posting? I thanked accidentally... Actually, I wanted to write that I see no reason to be categorically unfriendly to mtwiscool. He offers enough opportunities for criticism and gleefulness, but I do not think that this thread is the right place for it. I'd like to think that he is clever enough to know what "rm -rf /" means. He is highly annoying, but not a complete idiot.
