Question I have been attempting to purchase a domain from CloudFlare for almost a month now

2 Upvotes

I have been facing the following error.

I have reached out to the support team and they took the liberty to assume that I do not know how to read and pointed me back to the documentation I have been through countless times.

I would appreciate any help!

Internet Archive needs a Cloudflare proxy.

3 Upvotes

Why do I feel like my domains are better shielded over Internet Archive? Because Cloudflare eats DDoS like a dung beetles eat feces (poo). Maybe a Cloudflare rep needs to have a discussion with Internet Archive about what services you already provide which Archive apparently needs.

Question Redirect-Forward of Domain Not Working

1 Upvotes

Anyone have any idea why redirect/forward to new URL is not working with the Cloudflare Redirect rule?

My domain has been on cloudflare for months has A record and CNAME for www.

I also have MX records for mail.

I have just noticed when I enter www.old-domain.com it will redirect to the new domain but if I only enter https://old-domain.com it DOES NOT redirect.

I have tried all I can think of and it never redirects any help or tips will be greatly appreciated.

Question Modes of WARP for Windows

1 Upvotes

I have the WARP installed on Windows.

What is the difference between 1.1.1.1 mode and 1.1.1.1 with WARP ? I couldn't find any documentation.

I assumed that 1.1.1.1 is just redirecting solely the DNS to 1.1.1.1 & WARP is also VPN.

However following that assumption, manually setting the DNS to 1.1.1.1 from the network adapter setting without the app should behave similarly to selecting 1.1.1.1 mode through the app.

That isn't the case though. With adapter settings a site is blocked but with the app it's not.
Can anyone clarify the situation ?

Thanks.

Emergency Question!

I have a domain under cloudflare, I was recently hacked from a Trojan on my device.

I have gone thru and reset my device, removed the virus, and reset all my passwords.

When I was hacked I noticed that my domain "transfer to another registrar" was unlocked. I did not do this, does locking the registrar again cancel and block the already generated transfer code the hackers have? Does re-enabling the lock secure the domain from being transferred?

Unable to upgrade a domain from Free to Pro

1 Upvotes

I have an account with 3 domains assigned to it.

All 3 domains are on the free tier. We pay for some addons for domain1 and domain2.
We need to upgrade domain2 to pro to access additional rules and some analytics.

Attempts to upgrade fail. We have a ticket open with no activity on it.
It is NOT a billing issue on our end. Cloudflare takes out money for the addons each month just fine.
It is NOT a general problem with our account as domain1 was upgraded to Pro as a test, and we didn't have an issue (yes, WE PAID to test something we would expect support to be doing).

I am hoping someone else has had a similar situation and had it resolved. I'm thinking that domain2 has a setting or addon that interferes with the upgrade scripts.

This has been going on since the last week of August, and from looking through the support system, not a a new problem, nor an isolated one.

Discussion Be On Alert for Cloudflare billing and charging errors

0 Upvotes

Just wanted to drop a line and say that Cloudflare has now charged me in error twice in the last two months. I contacted support weeks ago about it and only heard back from them today who sound like they don't have a clue. I've had to file a claim with my credit card company. Now I'll have to do so again. I am also going to remove that card from Cloudflare's billing. Others in their member support section also have the same issue. What happened???

There has been no response from support. Not even an acknowledgment that an engineer has been assigned. No mention of "we're investigating and will be in touch" and of course, no response to inquiries for an update.

Has Cloudflare gotten too far out over its skis?

Question Capturing real IP from cloudflare proxy on NGINX

I set up a cloudflare dns proxy that directs to NGINX on a docker container. Everything is working great except all traffic shows up as 172.x.x.x. I assume this is the internal traffic from NGINX.

Pointing to home server

2 Upvotes

I created a cloudflare account to add ssl to my server hosted at home (screen connect/connectwise). I updated Nameservers and added an A record pointing to my wan IP address. Prior to changing NS this all worked without issues.

Now that i've changed nameservers I get "This site can't be reached". What else do I need to add to cloudflare so it redirects to my home server?

Question Cloudflared Tunnel not working.

1 Upvotes

Wsp,

I recently purchased a domain to locally host game servers for me and my friends, starting with Terraria. Unfortunately, I can't open a port on my router due to a family member's job security concerns. So i set up a Cloudflared tunnel, but I'm having trouble connecting to the server.

To troubleshoot, I used the command nc -zv localhost 7777 to test the server and checked the firewall status with sudo ufw status. I also allowed traffic on port 7777 with sudo ufw allow 7777, but I’m still unable to connect.

If anyone has suggestions for resolving this issue, I’d greatly appreciate your help!

Here is a log of the terminal: https://pastebin.com/vZbfLG9R

My config.yml file: https://pastebin.com/zwdhnjig

P.S The server is running on a older laptop using antiX linux

So upgraded to WARP yesterday, and now anytime I go to attempt to use it, it’ll toggle back and forth before being unable to connect. I’ve attached a video to show what is happened. Reinstall, reboot, reinstall of profile did not fix the issue.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I use cloudflare tunnel to host my home assistant so I can access it remotely. Lately I have been getting these notifications on my home assistant that it has banned someone using aws ec2 or google cloud. Today I saw this in my cloudflare account. Is someone trying to hack into my home assistant? Q

Question caching of worker requests?

1 Upvotes

I understand that workers are billed per invocation, but I want to create a system that returns fairly static data as cheap as possible.

If I have a worker at site.com/api/getdata?id=abc123 can I set it up so that the worker gets the data from the database and returns it with a cache header like s-maxage=31536000. With this cache header will all subsequent requests to the worker be cached by cloudflare and NOT invoke/bill for a worker request for the next 1 year (side note: in the workers plans are cache hits free?)

The data will change infrequently, but not at a set rate (like the 1 year TTL), so if my assumption above about the cache is correct, to further enhance the system, when I make a change in my backend can I then use the cache API to purge the cache specifically for the ID that was changed and now the next request WILL invoke the worker again, get the updated data and cache it for another year (or until I purge it again via api).

Background, I need to serve ~1-2kb json files to millions of hits/end users as cheap as possible (not in theory, this is for a live system) and when the data is changed it has to reflect to the end users right away, but I don't want to invoke millions of worker invocations (or run millions of requests on an actual server if I didn't use workers).

Question Using CloudFlare 1.1.1.1. for Families as a pornblocker for myself. Is there a way to disable me turning off the blocker?

0 Upvotes

After installing it, it is working very well for me. If i look up any porn sites, they don't pop up which is really refreshing. However, I can easily see myself just clicking the cloudflare wedge and turning off "Block Malware and Adult Content" if I get tempted. Is there a way for me to not bypass it?

If need be, I have an accountability partner who I can have download cloudflare and have him have access to my account.

Question Can CloudFlare be used to add authentication to a public website?

5 Upvotes

I have been looking at CloudFlare Access documentation. They seem to focus on self-hosted apps that are present on the private network only, and can be exposed to the ouside world with the help of a cloudflared tunnel. What if an application is on the public internet, but does not have a robust authentication layer. Can CloudFlare Access cater for this situation, too? Thank you in advance.

WAF rules not working as expected

3 Upvotes

Trying to create a WAF rule to disallow all traffic outside of the United States. My rule looks like this:

(ip.geoip.country ne "US")

However, when I go to visit my website (I am located in the US and not using a VPN), I am blocked from accessing my site. I confirmed through CloudFlare that my location is indeed registering as the US.

The below image is the security event.

Any ideas?

Question Email OTP not working for Apps

1 Upvotes

Hi

Probably won't b using the right terminology apologies in advance.

I just configured a cloudlfare tunnel with email verification as a policy. Works fine via browser access. The problem is that the authorization seems browser/session specific and doesn't work well with applications. (iOS apps)

If you have a solution for that great. My solution was to have :

  • create two logging policy: 1 email OTP to web.domain.com , 1 IP level to app.domain.com To start with there are no IP allowed to app.domain.com
  • the user accesses web.domain.com via browser using the email OTP
  • once he passed the check, I get the person's IP address, and put it in whitelist of IP addresss
  • the user can now configure his application via app.domain.com

I haven't managed to do it yet. I did create a python code that listens to the web.domain.com logs and can add IPs to the cloudflare policy via the API. Now need to test if that works.

This is the point I think it's good for me to take a break and see if I'm not over engineering something simple due to my lack of understanding.

What do you think?

Question 1.1.1.2 on Deco X50 Router

3 Upvotes

Is it good to change ipv4 DNS to 1.1.1.2? Will it hinder any network device? I had been using 1.1.1.1, but thought malware protection would be beneficial. Does it actually block or prevent malware to devices on the network? I don’t have ipv6 enabled on the router. My router is ISP provided, so the firmware is not totally unlocked like a normal TP-Link Deco X50.

How do I get my CloudFlare CDN IP address for my domain A record?

0 Upvotes

I added my website to CloudFlare CDN today, and when I did the scan, it imported all the DNS records from my domain. It added an A @ record for my domain, pointing to a specific IP address.

However later on I had some website SSL issues so stupidly changed this A @ record to point directly to my website host IP to temporarily fix the website being down.

But now that the SSL issue has been fixed, I want to point the A @ record back to the original IP that CloudFlare provided, but I can't find it anywhere or find in any docs how I get this IP address.

Thanks
