For those that continue to try and hack into our servers, I'm getting strict now (and sick of it).

Every time you fail, I get informed (and blocked from further connecting). My inbox is getting fuller and fuller.
I then inform your host, and also your host's host (same for ISP-based attacks). I go right up the chain of command.
Also, if your server is exploited, and it attacks us, I do the same; sorry.

We are attacked about once every 2-3 minutes. From varying IP's/Countries.
In the last hour, I've just been in touch with about 20 different companies, reporting abuse.

Take this as a warning.

Well, Since last night, I've had a handful of servers shut down - if you've come here to see what I've got to do with your server being shut down, then you need to get a decent sysadmin. Google is your friend.

It's amazing to see how many abuse@ email addresses bounce - I thought that it was a requirement that your abuse email addresses were working for arin?

There are no true international rules or laws for such requirements because the internet is "free" and "wide open"... But that's the way "we" want it - as unencumbered by government regulations as possible... Just think of how messed up it would be if we let the worlds governments get their hand too deep into things... It'll always be broken and always cost way too much to access...
