Once you're happy with the matched results, then use the following (replacing the last value with the name of your jail) to commit the changes without having to restart the Fail2Ban service:

And now for the part II - The CPU consuming bots of the world unite! Use at your own risk and note that some bots below are "legitimate" but blocked due to irrelevant traffic:

A great improvement on speed indeed! Just one adjustment to help avoiding matching the URL itself in requests: Without this, if you were blocking a bot called "spot" and you had a page with a referer that contained "spotting-birds-in-the-wild" you could accidentally trigger that just by...

As a quick update to this post, the regex above is a bit too greedy since it would effectively match results in the URL itself. For example, a URL such as "/spot/hello-world/ would be picked up and banned if the "spot" bot was included in the definition list. An updated version that fixes this...

No filesystem issues and the manual approach worked without a problem (no extra steps taken or needed) so we're going to hold off on using this for now in production environments.

Are you able to SSH or login to Plesk while the incidents are occurring or is this an "after hours" type of scenario each time?

Changed the failregex to the following otherwise it would never match user agent names with versions, URLs or anything else after them:

You're not entirely incorrect on this - I had to modify the failregex on the default one for it to work correctly.

The GUI tool failed two installs on AlmaLinux 9.3 with the local gpgkey path not found errors; ended up using the manual upgrade approach which pulls it from MariaDB and worked like a charm: [mariadb] name = MariaDB baseurl = https://dlm.mariadb.com/repo/mariadb-server/10.11/yum/rhel/9/x86_64...

Why not use the new MariaDB upgrade tool?

For shared web servers when using DNS externally and mail externally, we used the steps here to enable DKM and signing on all domains: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377279341975-How-to-enable-DKIM-signing-for-all-domains-on-Plesk-for-Linux- We then use this step to get the key...

To follow-up on this, running the two commands here https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377279341975-How-to-enable-DKIM-signing-for-all-domains-on-Plesk-for-Linux- seem to successfully enable DKIM signing for all domains however if "Enable mail management functions in Plesk" is turned...

The article here https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377279341975-How-to-enable-DKIM-signing-for-all-domains-on-Plesk-for-Linux- seems to suggest that with those two commands, keys would be generated for all domains on the server. Does this apply to mail sent via Postfix and PHP...

In this scenario, the Plesk mail server isn't used (mailboxes are external) so it's turned off via the Plesk GUI and DNS is external with no connection to Plesk. The servers provide shared hosting with hundreds of domains on each. We'd like messages that are sent from server scripts and postfix...
