Thanks for that. Yeah it's a bit worrying that it's now the 5th (or it is where I am) and no change on the website.....

(I'd modify my existing posts but evidently can't after a period of time. Anyway...)

Latest honeypot update:
QuoteCurrent Status: March 3rd, 2017 @ 6PM EST: HPOT data structures and E3 processing complete. Message map updates underway

It will be great when this is back as I am very much looking forward to getting this mod up and running.

I had 8 spammers attempt to register today - avoided dramas thanks to the companion MOD stop spammer, and I think having httpBL as well will be even better protection. :)

The honeypot website offers:
   Specify the scripting language you prefer (e.g. PHP, ASP, Perl, mod_perl, ColdFusion, Python, or Movable Type

How do I know which to choose for me?  Would I be right to assume PHP would be best for a normal SMF forum?

Yes, sorry. They have closed my server temporarily because I owe them some money. I hope I would manage to get it open again soon.

I don't know exactly when because I haven't got any kind of regular income. It's not easy to find a job when you are 60 years old, so all the work I have been doing in the past 10 years have been mostly free source programs.

You already asked that question here:

I Kindred and me already answered you there.

There is a small conflict between mod httpBL and Responsive Curve.

You need to have httpBL BEFORE you install Responsive Curve

But there is an easy solution:

- Uninstall Responsive Curve

- Install httpBL

- Install again Responsive Curve

This way, every thing should go smooth.

OK just reporting back.

I have managed to get it all set up on the honeypot site and the mod successfully installed, up and running on the forum !

If I can do it, anyone can, so thanks for everyone's help. :)

Now to wait and see what flies wander in for the honey....

A question.

I have had the mod going for 24 hours so far and have no caught any spammers.

There are a few however which have snuck through into the "awaiting approval" section of the Stop Spammer mod.

One example is:  [username]exacet09276   [email]bing.(femaledog)[email protected]   [IP]121.205.216.79

I assume then, that this spammer isn't in the project honeypot databsae - but then it would appear that another 3 or 4 got through during the last 24 hours as well.

The mod says everything is up and running OK, with honeypot working etc.  Any ideas why it isn't catching anything?

If you log into projecthoneypot's web site, you can see the details of any IP inside the database.

For example in this case, after you are logged in, go to:

http://www.projecthoneypot.org/ip_121.205.216.79

You can see that this is a "suspect" spammer, but the Threat Rating is only 1 just now

Usually we only consider dangerous an IP with Threat Rating 10 or more.

============================================

Anyway, some time ago, we found out there are a few spam-bots that can pass through mod httpBL.

It was first reported by Sea Mac here:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=366399.msg3080909#msg3080909

I suggested him a small change in the warning page to sort that problem here:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=366399.msg3081023#msg3081023

You should do that small change too to avoid this kind of spam-bots.

Thanks. I'll give that a crack
Stupid Q no.1 - where do I find the warning page? What file to change?

Stupid Qs no.2 - in the mod settings "Keyword of your Honey Pot link".  It says I can leave it blank, which I did, do I just assume its chosen one? (it doesn't show one).
Would it be better to choose one myself. How do I know what sort of word to use? (and is the mod settings the only place this appears or is it something that needs to be in the honeypot itself...)


FYI in case it helps/matters two more today which slipped through (but Stop Spammer got em). Both appear to be not recorded in the honeypot database.

It is a file called warning.php and it's located at the root of your SMF installation.

Leave it blank and don't worry at all about it. The program will choose one for you and use it wherever it needs to use it.

Send me a PM and tell me what time of the day (and what days of the week) you have time to talk.

We can connect using Skype and Teamviewer so I can take a look at what exactly is going on there, because obviously something is wrong.

Don't forget to tell me also what part of the planet you live in, because I live in Spain and I will need to see how many ours difference we have between your country and mine.  ;)
