    Hello NguyenCong, First i would like to offer a strong warning against disabling any suspicious lfd warnings. Unfortunately anybody that runs a server will get these warnings. Repeatedly. Why you ask? Many reasons: 1. It may be a rootkit virus/trojan. 2. When any system services update/upgrades on your server it uses backdoors and security protocols to enter/exit. Usually these are done with hidden IPs and pre-assigned urls/ports. But if one of those changes, and they do constantly, your servers security systems trigger an alert. 3. Sometimes when Clam AV updates 4. Sometimes when SpammAssasin updates 5. Sometimes when cPanel updates But if you want to disable alerts here are a couple configurations you can try. Please write down or screenshot any original settings BEFORE editing them. WHM/Server Configuration/Tweak Settings/Notifications WHM/Server Configuration/Tweak Settings/System

    Hi, If you want to only disable lfd alert for particular process then you have to add this process in to csf.pignore file. File path is /etc/csf/csf.pignore OR if you want to disable all lfd alerts then you have to disable it in csf.conf file Login to server through SSH Open file /etc/csf/csf.conf and set and set PT_USERMEM=0 If you are not sure then contact to your system admin.
