It is assumed that you have already installed APF (Advanced policy firewall) on your cPanel dedicated web server. Once, APF is installed do the following:

Edit the antidos configuration file of APF with the command:

nano /etc/apf/ad/conf.antidos

Find the string LP_KLOG=”0″ and change it to LP_KLOG=”1″

Now, find for CONAME=”Your Company”

Enter your company name within quotes for example

CONAME=”SupportFacility.Com”

Now find for the string USR_ALERT=”0″ and change it to USR_ALERT=”1″

This is so that you can receive email alerts.

Now enter your email address here:

USR=”something@yourdomain.com”

Now you have to set it in cron for this give the following command:

crontab –e

*/5 * * * * root /etc/apf/ad/antidos -a >> /dev/null 2>&1

This will run antidos every five minutes.
