[Xitami] Changing Port 80

[Charles Schmidling]

There will be others.  My attacks started coming in from all over the
world - too many to simply block.



Best is to setup another A Record (RR record in yi.org?) with your DNS like

    ww2.whatevers.com

pointing to your IP (like your others).

Then set up a forwarding record (WebForward) for
                     www.whatevers.com
 to forward to  http://ww2.whatevers.com:port#/

It is not necessary to "mask" the forwarded address since you have nothing
to hide.

This is done in your DNS service (I use ZoneEdit) but I'm not certain where
yi.org handles web forwarding.

Much Luck.

Why go through all that trouble. Just use your firewall to block the
offending ip address. After I blocked 3 Roadrunner addresses all the "get
NT" type request stopped.
