Find the VPN at http://www.vpngate.net/en/. Filter by OpenVPN only. Look at the transfer rate. Might also see if the IP is responding.
https://www.kabatology.com/05/09/ubuntu-connect-to-vpn-gate-with-openvpn/ Download the OpenVPN file and open it. Cut out the sections between the tags, including the “begin” and “end” certificate. Create a separate directory for each gate. Save as “ca.crt”.
In Ubuntu Edit Connections > Network Connections > add > Open VPN > create. Fill in the form from top to bottom, or the form won’t work. Might want to add the domain name to the label. Choose “password”, vpn, vpn, add the location of the ca.crt file, Save, try.
free-109-108.mediaworksit.net has tried to crack my security so I thought it appropriate to track them down.
The host name only provides the third and fourth octet, leading one to gues the first two. As they have not repeated the third octet you will need to ban larger ranges.
hoor.nullvpn.com was trying to crack my security, so I thought it good to research and ban them. They are using a VPN, but there are not many IP addresses.
ipredator.se is a Swedish VPN service that is comment spamming my site.
Observation:
anon-48-125.vpn.ipredator.se 46.246.32.0 – 46.246.63.255 PrivActually
host anon-44-42.vpn.ipredator.se 46.246.44.42
exit1.ipredator.se 197.231.221.211 CYBERDYNE Monrovia I did not realize that I had banned this before. If this changes I will hunt it down again. There are a few IPs that have used this host name. They continue to content scrape me.
anon-45-30.vpn.ipredator.se 46.246.45.30
anon-47-29.vpn.ipredator.se 46.246.47.29
Pattern:
Add 46.246. to the two octets in the host name.
