Hello,
It seems someone trying to hack my server from China.

Interval: 3600 seconds
Blocked:  Permanent Block [LF_SMTPAUTH]

edit /etc/csf/csf.conf
Code: [Select]
CC_DENY = "BG,CN,KP,RU,NG"(Sorry if it's your country, but this list includes the top 5 hacking countries in my US-based observation.)
Code: [Select]
service csf restart
