Woke up to a whole pile of uptime alarms flagging that various websites were not “up” and responding. Azure, Jetpack, Cloudflare – something was clearly wrong.
As you can see from the Apache access logs – hundreds of thousands of hits per minute from the same IP address range – 185.188.204.x
Easy fix to create a deny rule in Azure to block this. I don’t think CloudFlare was touching it.

Watching the logs for this now.
AH00060: seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process
Since I wrote this post (a long, long time ago) – Office 365 now adds support for creating a trusted connector between your Linux/postfix environment and Office 365.
Much, much easier than before.
So as a reminder for me next time:
Sometimes life is not about technology.
Tumble dryer stopped heating – so take it apart, realise thermal fuse is blown. Clean all of the dust and lint out – reassemble – it works for a few minutes.
Repeat and rinse. This time replace thermal fuse, thermostat and heating element. Same again.
Third time run the vent pipe cleaner up the pipe – and there’s a birds nest in the vent pipe. Desiccated dead bird and all.
Moral of the story – tumble dryer problems – always clean and clean the vent just to be extra sure.
Switched 12 year old Pentium II to a Pentium Core 2 for the firewall box.
Also moved from spinning disk to SSD – and it’s running a lot cooler.
