Just testing out A35 from here.
p.s. I am leaving Telnet on Mis for the country blocking, I get WAY too many hack attempts, mostly China & Russia ...

WAY too many hack attempts, mostly China & Russia ...
I have started handling this outside of mystic. This may not work for windows, but should be doable on linux, and possibly pi. I have started blocking countrys using iptables, and xtables geoip
Yes, I did that for Russia & China, but have found it's the fighting that makes them try harder and put more machines on your site. Right now I'm back to the level of attack I had in June of 2016 with no iptables
loaded. What I did was:
cd /mystic
sudo ipset -N china hash:net
wget -P . http://www.ipdeny.com/ipblocks/data/countries/cn.zone
for i in $(cat cn.zone ); do ipset -A china $i; done #takes a while
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m set --match-set china src -j DROP
# then I did the same for Russia
sudo ipset -N russia hash:net
wget -P . http://www.ipdeny.com/ipblocks/data/countries/ru.zone
for i in $(cat ru.zone ); do ipset -A russia $i; done
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m set --match-set russia src -j DROP
#sudo iptables -L #only for feedback to you
That will block China & Russia till you reboot. You can do a save, but that locks the lists you used in, they change regularly. When under
attack I do the above if I'm using mis2 which has no such blocking. With mis you don't need that just edit badcountry.txt to block what you want.
