Bandwidth problem (out: 13 Mbit/s)


(Igloo) #1

Hello,

My server has been blocked because of the bandwidth. The provider said it was sending 13 Mbit/s when the server was empty! How can it be? We didn’t have the problem some time ago. It’s just an ETPro, 20 slots, configuration the same over past 3 years.

Please, help us to find out, if you may know the reason/s.

Thanks!

Hi,
it seems your also a victim of the getstatus exploit script kiddies.
You can take a closer look at this thread: http://wolffiles.de/index.php?forum-showposts-44-p5#
If you`re running a linux server, I suggest to run the Getstatus ban 1.5 script (cron, each 5minutes for example)

Thanks, I think that’s it. I can’t see the logs, only the company. So the owner was angry when he noticed the problems these days :slight_smile:

Greetings,
Igloo

This is the fault of the hosting company not of your fault : to clear this not at your level !

But If you use Patch 2.55+ take care of using 2.55+ - Enemy Territory server patch - “wwwdl exploit” workaround

If it continue I suggest to change of hosting company.
