Hello there.
I heard there are lots of private servers under attack, instead of buying ddos protection. Protect your ip address.
When a hacker can't get the ip your server and or website is hosted on, he can't even start a attack.
Now i have some tips for server owners to use.
When you are hosting scripts on the webhost of your server.
You must use Cloudflare.com. This will totally change your dns settings to the dns from cloudflare.
Now when they are looking (whois or ping) for your ip by typing your website url, they only get a cloudflare ip. This might help alot.
Just use cloudflare on your webhost, and protect ur whois with whoisguard.
Cloudflare is free to use, but if you get downtime by a ddos attack on the cloudflare ip, then pay coudflare for ddos protection. Or manually block those ip's who attack you.
I hope this might help the private servers of kalonline.
I Do know there are other ways to get the ip of the server, But there are not so much people smart enough i think. Using a command prompt and a command when you login to the server will get the ip tho. But there will be more ip's showing in the cmd. And the hacker must just rip the right ip out of it. In that case it's better to use a ddos protected root.
