[cobalt-users] error log emergency

[Theodore Jones <theoj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I recently caught a hacker trying to hack a password protected site on my
3i unit.   I was able to deny him/her service vi a deny line in the
.htacces file of the protected directory.   This worked fine and I can see
the malicious person being denied just keeps on churning hits at me even
though they're being denied.  If this keeps up it will rapidly make my
error log grow huge and possibly crash my machine (the intent?).

How can you make the error logging just ignore this malciious IP, or just
pass them off to an error message or some null thing so that no entries to
me error log are incurred?

Any help would be much appreciated!,
