@meliliou:
Thanks for the info Joker. However, now I've noticed that twice when I started 113 torrents, I started having error 503, followed by timeouts on all 113 torrents. I stopped the torrents, and the timeouts continued for 6 hours; I also experience timeouts on the web site. After six hours, I started getting scrapes from the tracker again; it also took at least 6 hours to be able to access the website again. This happened twice. It's my impression that new settings on your DOS software bans me (my IP address) because it interprets starting so many seeding torrents as a DOS attack. I've been manually starting the torrents, but this is monotonous. Questions:
1. Does your DOS software ban IP addresses with the behaviour described above?
2. If it does, what are the settings ie 20 connections per second or what? If I know then I could start the torrents faster. I don't want to get banned
3. If it does ban as above, could the settings be made more similar to what they were before? I never had problems before
I am having very similar symptoms and I also have a large number of active seeding torrents (about 50+).
I also end up not being able to connect to the tracker or load the website, presumably because of my IP getting banned (using a different IP works).
