Introduction
This article provides the procedure to enable/disable fork bomb protection.
Please note, that shell fork bomb protection is unavailable on CloudLinux servers since it uses LVEs.
Procedure
- Access the server's command line as the 'root' user via SSH or "Terminal" in WHM.
- Navigate to "Home / Security Center / Shell Fork Bomb Protection."
- Click the "Enable Protection" or "Disable Protection" button as appropriate.
Please note, that the button is "Enable Protection" when protection is disabled and "Disable Protection" when it is enabled.
