It's hard to use iptables effectively to mitigate an DDOS attack with changing IP addresses.
Most attackers easily change IP addresses; but they forget to change the User Agent string, so it's often easier to block the hackers User Agent string. Did you do any analysis on the UA strings?
Also, if you are using Apache2, there may be an anti-DDOS module, as I recall.

In my logs I find entries about attacks on my system. I know IP addresses, I know date and time and I know what they tried to do. So what's the best I can do now? Tell everybody that there are cybercriminals on that network? Write an email to their admin? Anything else? (10 Replies)

log::agent::tag::callback
Agent::Tag::Callback(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Agent::Tag::Callback(3pm)
NAME
Log::Agent::Tag::Callback - a dynamic tag string
SYNOPSIS
require Log::Agent::Tag::Callback;
# Inherits from Log::Agent::Tag.
my $tag = Log::Agent::Tag::Callback->make(
-name => "session id",
-callback => Callback->new($obj, 'method', @args),
-postfix => 1,
-separator => " -- ",
);
DESCRIPTION
This class represents a dynamic tag string, whose value is determined by invoking a pre-determined callback, which is described by a
"Callback" object.
You need to make your application depend on the "Callback" module from CPAN if you make use of this tagging feature, since "Log::Agent"
does not depend on it, on purpose (it does not really use it, it only offers an interface to plug it in). At least version 1.02 must be
used.
CREATION ROUTINE PARAMETERS
The following parameters are defined, in alphabetical order:
"-callback" => "Callback" object
The callback to invoke to determine the value of the tag. The call is protected via a busy flag, in case there is an unwanted
recursion due to a call to one of the logging routines whilst within the callback.
If the callback is busy, the tag emitted is:
callback "user" busy
assuming "user" is the name you supplied via "-name" for this tag.
"-name" => name
The name of this tag. Used to flag a callback as busy in case there is an unwanted recursion into the callback routine.
"-postfix" => flag
Whether tag should be placed after or before the log message. By default, it is prepended to the log message, i.e. this parameter is
false.
"-separator" => string
The separation string between the tag and the log message. A single space by default.
