CSF Firewall / Re: Should we update CSF to V15??
« Last post by overseer on Today at 02:37:35 PM »You should follow the 15.08 guide if you are still on the CWP default (dead end) track. Then you can just issue
Code: [Select]
csf -uto update if it doesn't auto-update to 15.09.2

« Last post by djprmf on Today at 01:54:51 PM »There is no DDoS attack agains the forum. There is a CWP team that have no interest in fix the server where the forum is. That is a FACT.
The DDoS is a excuse. There is no record of a ddos attack anywhere. More, there is no record in HISTORY of a DDoS attack that goes by months... or now CWP is so special that even get to beat history of the internet?
The server where the forum is hosted is outdated, with security issues and with misconfigurations. CWP team doesn't fix the issues because they have no interest in doing so. as with the CWP itself... and we can continue to discuss this, but there is no point.
CWP envangelist will ignore ALL the points made, and and continue to say that everything is fine even if CWP Team itself confirm that the panel is dead.
@Starburst will continue to provide guides in how to "fix this and that", in hope to get some attention - just look how this guy now have a forum dedicated to "help" cwp users. is trying to became somehow of a "god" to save CWP, but failing in that.
Many more continue to be here, where not even the CWP team is online, just in hope that something change, because they have all they business around CWP, and they cannot change that fact. So CWP must survive... must continue, or all they work will go by the drain. And they don't know more in how to fix that... When the time arrives, will be too late...
Many more continue to flock from CWP. There are MANY cwp alternatives, better, updated and strong. Free or paid.
CWP was unique, was great. Was. That is the word, is not anymore.

We have been working with Aetherinox fork.
You can see how to upgrade to this fork at:

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, but I'm still on the original CWP CSF, version 14.2.
What do I need to do to switch to the Aetherinox fork?

« Last post by Andrew C on Today at 12:50:29 PM »What an irony 😄 — someone suggested that the CWP forum should be hosted on Cloudflare instead of running on CWP itself… and yet it still keeps going down from time to time.
You’d think the CWP developers, of all people, would have PHP tuned rock-solid so the forum stays up consistently if php resources were the issue.
Also, the change logs still aren’t being updated. Without clear change logs, it’s really hard for users to confirm — or properly audit — what’s being changed, whether from a functionality or a security standpoint. A bit more transparency here would go a long way to stop users abandoning the project in the short term.

« Last post by NIIcK on February 24, 2026, 09:19:24 PM »Hello @Starburst,
Are the mirrors still up? I am getting a expired SSL certificate and no index.
As an example, I cannot find CSF on elrepo.nue.de.ssimn.org and csf -u returns:
with: if ($chosen eq "") {$chosen = "elrepo.nue.de.ssimn.org"} in /usr/local/csf/lib/ConfigServer/Config.pm
Thank you in advance!

CSF Firewall / Re: Should we update CSF to V15??
« Last post by venty on February 24, 2026, 04:03:45 PM »Just follow Starburst's guide to update to CSF 15.08 (Aetherinox's fork):
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/aetherinox-csf-firewall-update-to-v15-08/
Hi,
Thanks for the answer, but I'm now with the original CSF of the CWP, version 14.2. Shouldn't I follow one of these two instructions before following the instruction you provided:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/csf-firewall-gplv3-release-tweaked-for-cwp/
or
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/csf-firewall-error-oops-unable-to-download-no-host-option-provided/
or both?
and then the instructions you provided:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/aetherinox-csf-firewall-update-to-v15-08/
and I already saw that the following are also available:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/aetherinox-csf-firewall-update-to-v15-09/
Please tell me which one to follow and which one to follow after that...
Thanks in advance!
