I am running a Tracker with 115,000 peers.
XBTT is running on port 2790, when my tracker is going down, i tried to bring it back.
I am getting this error:
./xbt_tracker
bind failed: EADDRINUSE
I have to restart my server: init 6 to run XBTT again.
My XBTT tracker was online over 97 days without any problems, in the paste 48 hours, it's been down over 15 times.
I am very sure, someone is flooding on port: 2790 and crashing my XBT announce.
netstat -ant | grep SYN_RECV | wc -l
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_syn_backlog
it was 1024, i made it 3024, my server RAM is 4GB. ( I changed it to 3024, restart needed? I just changed via nano )
My website is opening without any problem, just my XBTT software " Tracker " is crashing because of SYN Flood on 2790 port.
Please let me know how to stop them.
