This explains what happened to PinoyBlogoSphere.com at around 1:00am to 2:00am this morning. tsk tsk tsk. We still don’t know yet why these IP’s are making these numerous connections. Maybe they like PBS so much huh *lol*. Maybe they are just some of our loyal regular readers :D

Hello,

We had to firewall the following IPs for making excessive connections to
your site pinoyblogosphere.com, this caused your site to slow down and
the apache to crash.

The IPs were (# on the left is the connections being made)

   314 210.23.123.90

   351 222.127.223.71

   692 202.57.83.154

   876 58.69.13.188

We have blocked it from connecting the your server so that it will not
bring your site down again. If this is not an IP that you want blocked
please let us know what it is being used for and we will see what we can
work out.

Thanks!

If you think these IP’s belong to your ISP, there’s a probability that these IP’s might be assigned to you whenever you dynamically get IP from them as you go online and would make PBS be inaccesible to you as these are currently being blocked by our host’s firewall. We’ll just let those IP’s be blocked for the time being and let’s just observe what’s gonna happen next :D In case that you’ll get affected by this, kindly let us know. Sorry for the inconvenience.
