After putting Sentinel Headlines Feed Vanished...need help

Hi anyone knows how to get my headlines feed backend.php back in action?

I run a mabo site also and was featuring the headlines of my nuke site in the mambo but after installing sentinel for security reasons and activating all kinds of blocking thats available like harvesting, scripting, union etc the headlines are not comming in mambo site.

Infact in this site (ravenscripts) in my personalised panel i tried to add the headlines feed but it said "there is some problem with the feed"

So I also presume that other sites who take the feed will also not get the headlines.

Can anyone tell me the settings for a particular blocking method (i dont know which one) so that security is not compromised but sites can take the backend headlines feed?

One more thing: Harveting has blocked 4 IPs who were using method GET For some articles in my site. Is security especially for admin hacks comprosmised if i turn harvest method off? I belive in a way can boost my traffic if i turn harvest off as some sites scans my site for stories ...will it compromise hacking security issue?

Thanks in advance Embarassed

Harvest Blocker is geared to stop web harvesters and has nothing to do with admin security blocking Smile

The Harvest Blocker wasn't trripped by the GET method but rather by something in the user agents of those 4 requests.

Anyway, turning the Harvest Blocker will not cause any security holes to open up in hte admin security portion od NukeSentinel at all.

Yo thanks a lot will turn harvester off then. Ant idea why the headlines are not coming in mambo? Rejected by harvesting? or due to something else?
