Hello !

Several IPs are putting dangerous files on the wiki.

Dangerous for the 'world' I hope. Not for the vserver.

As I don't see much how we can use the usual filtering for spammer with
MoinMoin in this case, I guess we could try to blacklist IPs or networks
on the wiki machine.

I need some pieces of advise please :
Can it be configured on the wiki vserver ?

Yes. You can edit the webserver config and put ranges in a 'blacklist'.

if yes, can I/we use the usual Iptable stuff directly on the wiki ?

On a default vserver this is not possible.

Kind Regards,
