Block IPs for entire server
I have a dedicated server and *someone* is continously pinging me and sending me those requests for "cmd.exe" on all the domains I'm hosting. additionally, someone launched DOS attacks from my server last month and then I had to pay $75 to dialtone to fix up the mail, telnet and kernel.
The good part is I'm using linux so it's not harming me alot. but it's making my server busy and its using up my bandwidth. how can i block requests from certain IPs for all the domains? if i have to use .htaccess, where should I place it?
thanks a million!
