Changes to Foundry Firewall may cause connection problems
Posted: Wed Apr 01, 2015 5:27 pm
I've been under a bit of siege from various botnets trying to break into machines in my installation.
As a result I've had to resort to blocking entire ISPs internet address allocations to keep the hackers from just switching to a new compromised machine for the attack.
Unfortunately this dragnet may cause problems for users that also get service from those ISPs.
If you have previously been able to connect to the Foundry or Minkata and no longer are able to do so, please reply to this thread and include your IP address in the note, and I'll put an entry in my firewall whitelist for your address to get through.
Sorry for the hassle.
