Been Hacked
Feb 5, 2008I have a server with about 100 domains on it in Plesk. I have about 10 or so clients that pay me a pittance to host their site and the rest are various domains that have been parked.
About a week ago we received a "too many connections" error when accessing Plesk. This is our server and it sits at The Planet (formerly EV1). I cranked up the mx connections to 1,100 or so following some web tutorial but I'm really a complete idiot when it comes to this server stuff. (I'm more of a php / html kind of guy).
I check out logs and it appears that someone has been trying to access a bunch of celebrity images that shouldn't exist on our server. It's clearly spam of some kind. I can't seem to actually find these images on my server anywhere, but I've got a feeling that foul play has been involved.
