Thanks for the tip. That did look like the fork to watch early on. If it's active and alive, that's great.

Interesting, on a clean installation it shows 15.08 as the current up-to-date version. That's using the "Stable" channel, not the "Insiders Channel." Also, it shows:

Code: [Select]

License: InvalidWhere your csf -v example shows

Code: [Select]

License: None

Yea, that's a fix in 15.09

Developer though the wording 'Invalid' didn't sound right.

Same thing, I might suggest changing it to Free & Paid.

Feedback is welcome.
You also can reach the developer directly via his discord channel.

But if you notice, on the left side that some users complained was empty has been fixed also.

Thanks, all installed.

OMG were actually a nose in front of cPanel with this one!

This version/fork also works on cPanel also, but don't tell anyone.

Everything went fine up to the last csf -v:

I am currently running v14.24 - can i go straight to this?

Thanks

Yes, you should be able to go from the closed source (14.24) to the open source version (15+).

Starburst, have you at all dabbled with the other major CSF fork, Sentinel Firewall?

1. Yes, you can follow the upgrade guide on the KB to go from 14.24 to 15.08

2. Yea, Sentinel is being maintained by some cPanel admins, and is their primary focus.
As such, they aren't too worried about other panels or OS'es.
Where I asked Aetherinox to support AL10.
Also gave him a CWPpro license for testing.

Yea, CWP doesn't understand color codes. :/
This is fixed in 15.09 when it comes out.

Yes, you can.
But if you have any CSF files locked with chattr, you just need to unlock them first.
