We are seeing an online attack on our server 196.45.188.25 in progress right now, they<br>
are targetting mysql services that we are running in relation to our .mw registry servers.<br>

Tha attack is being run from the following IP addresses which show as Turkey and Romania<br>

Any ideas on how to prevent attacks on mysql 5.6 on Fedora 20 installations ?<br>

I can see what they want to modify but I have problems seeing how they got in or as what.<br>

I am copying this to the abuse contacts on these networks ... does this really work?<br>
