GW 5.5 can’t stop NDR attack

by p. dickason, cne, mcse, cca . Updated 21 years, 7 months ago

We have GW 5.5 (not sure of the service pack but the modules are ver 5.55) and someone is NDR attacking us. I see hundreds of messages coming in on the GWIA screen and the same amount of status messages being sent out. My problem is that I have all of this turned off but it is still happening so much so that no mail can be sent out. I have in the gwia.cfg file /norouting and also /badmsg-neither. I also have in the optional gateway settings Outbound Status Level set to None and Correlation Enabled set to No. I don’t understand how this is still happening and I cannot find anything in the knowledgebase about the subject. Please help.
Thanks
Pete
