Web Hosting :: Facebook's Domain Name/dns Hacked

Registrar's Domain Name Server Service For My VPS?
I'm wondering is it possible to use RegisterFly's DNS server for my VPS. I only have 1 website on the VPS, but I want to increase the reliability of my site overall and thought if it were possible to give the DNS operations to my Registrar, who probabily really does have seperate DNS servers, this would be a good move. Since it would allow me to disable BIND (freeing up resources/memory), and put the DNS operations to quite possibly a more reliable set of servers (since my 2 DNS servers are actually just my 1 VPS)

What are the Pros/Cons of this type of arrangement?

So I need to know, can it technically be done, and what zones entries I need to create.

1and1 Won't Host A Domain Name Without Extra Charge?
I was looking for a domain name and registered it with 1and1 last year, for UK 11 pounds approximately. I then found that they were also charging me approx 30 UK pounds every six months for web hosting space that I did not ask for as I have a great host elsewhere. I have gone to their site and tried to cancel the web hosting while retaining the domain name but it only allows me to cancel the domain name, which I don't want to do. I have tried contacting them multiple times over this additional charge and get stonewalled every time with a standard response that the money is due on my contract. In the circumstances I would like to transfer the domain name to another host as renewal is a couple of months away, but I'm scared that they'll find some way to stop me doing that? ....

Mystery Mirror/Mirroring My Client's Site Is On Another Domain But Why?
I'm having an issue with a client site and I am not sure what to do at this point. Conversations with the host (GoDaddy) haven't led to a solution and to be honest, I'm not sure it's their issue to handle although I will be firing off an email to their domain dispute department shortly. I spoke with a couple of supervisors there and they were as baffled as I am.

Here's the situation:

When people Google the name of the client's business, it returns their site but on a different domain. The entire site is there, nothing is changed but the URL. It's like having an unintentional mirror site except that none of the forms work which is what tipped off the users that something was wrong but of course, they don't notice that they're not actually on 'www.clientsite.com' so they think it's just a form error when in actuality, they're not even at the right domain.

There is really no way for this other domain to profit from mirroring the client's site; it's just a business profile type of thing with a few forms for contact, employment applications and vendor applications. No secure info is transmitted other than perhaps the occasional email address but we're not talking a heavy volume site, it's a niche market and really not something that would be a typical target. There's no eCommerce, no subscriptions, no financial info.

I'm at a total loss. Could this happen if this other site is hosted on the same server as my client's site? Could it be an actual error of some sort or would it have to be intentional?

The whois for this bogus site leads to DomainsbyProxy.com and I'll be sending them a letter as well but I'd really appreciate any input you all might have on HOW this could happen. Should I also contact Google?

Website Hacked, IP And Domain
This is the second time this week that my website was hacked. On the first hack attempt they somehow got into my cpanel and corrupted my license file which I had my host fix. Other than that the only damage done was an html file that replaced my main page. Then today, I find that my website has been further compromised, but by a completely different group. The first hacker was g3n3t1x and this second hack was done by www.turkishdefacerteam.com

Now, the problem is my sites dedicated IP is 72.36.192.150, and my domain name is gamingguilds.net, but if you resolve the domain name, it resolves to 74.53.52.66. I have checked my nameservers and everything is set properly. But the thing I don't get is that when you type in my domain name in a web browser, you see my website. How can it be resolving to the wrong IP and STILL show my website. Also note that when you type in my dedicated IP it would still show my website (before this second attack).

Now after the second attack, my dedicated IP no longer works, I cant get into cpanel using the IP, I cant get into my FTP account, and I get view my website. Yet if you use the domain name to log into cpanel or view the website it works. The strange part here is that I can't get into the FTP using the domain name.

SO, if you go to [url]you see a blank cpanel site, if you go to [url] you get a 404 error, and if you go to www.gamingguilds.net you get my website.

Hijacked / Hacked Domain By HostOnce
I've been handling the design and updates for a local private school for a few years now. They use HostOnce for hosting. Over 2 weeks ago I noticed that when I try to bring the site up in a browser I get a login prompt - [url]. I've submitted several help desk tickets to HostOnce with no response. Since school is starting, I recommended the school change hosting providers. So they bought hosting with GoDaddy who I also use. But now I need to transfer the domain name and I can't get a response from HostOnce. I send an email requesting that they initiate the domain transfer to GoDaddy every day with no response.

Besides a few email addresses and the help desk, there doesn't seem to be any way I can get in touch with anyone at HostOnce. What options do I have left? The school is currently stuck with a site that can't be accessed. The company seems to be in Australia but I've read the phone number listed for them does not work. I'm looking for a US phone number or something.

Are Patched Domain Name Server (DNS) Behind N.A.T. Still Vunlerable To DNS Cache Poisoning?
Upon reading http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08...sky_black_hat/ it appears those who use network address translation may be vulnerable to DNS cache poisoning even after patching their DNS servers.

"another 15 per cent are still vulnerable to some extent because they use network address translation gear that prevents the patch from working."

Thoughts?

Host Will Only Update Domain Name Server (DNS) In Batches, Takes Several Hours For A DNS Change, Normal?
Host will only update DNS in batches, takes several hours for a DNS change, is that normal?
Well today my mail stopped working and it turns out the A record for mail was deleted. How it got deleted I don't know.

I called my host and after speaking to 2 techs, they said that have added my request to a batch, and that would update in a few hours.

I said to him, batch? What can't you do it instantly?

He said thats not the way their DNS works and any DNS change would affect thousands of other sites they are hosting.

Does anyone know what kind of dns system these people could possibly have where they can not reload a single zone?

And by affected, I think he means the sites will go down for a minute or so, while it relaods every zone. Is this really the case, or are these people just idiots?

Reverse Domain Name Server (DNS) ARPA For Domain On VPS
I have a vps with dedicated ip's for my domain names.

I read that in order for mails coming from my server not be picked up as spam, i need to add reverse ip entries.

Now i have already added the glue nameserver records on my godaddy control panel,

ns1.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.40
ns2.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.41

But do i need to speak to the datacenter to add the reverse dns entries for my domain on their nameservers? What about if i host my nameservers offsite, but then have my webserver/mailserver etc inside the datacenter? Would i need to request the datacenter where the nameservers are hosted to add the reverse ip entries for the domain, and then the request the same from the datacenter for my web/mail servers to add the reverse entries?

Is it really required?

I am specifically looking for ping times for Softlayer's 3 data centers (Seattle, Texas, DC).

Invalid Command 'php_flag' - After Recompiling PHP & Apache?
After I recompiled Apache and PHP using easyapache from cPanel, we started getting all these weird errors. I'm getting a few people now complaining about not being able to enable register_globals. I believe (after searching) that having this enabled is a big security risk and shouldn't need to be used. However, some people apparently where using .haccess and php_flag to enable this. I did find on a few places that people can create their own php.ini file to emulate what was previously done with .htaccess?

After searching around..

I found out that Register Globals can become a security risk based on the scripts configuration that uses it. This feature normally can be enabled via .htaccess using the glad "php_flag register_globals On". Creating a file called php.ini inside the directory of the site with the flag "register_globals=on" I believe will also enable this option. To enable this option on a global scale, you can edit '/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/php.ini', but its not recommended.

However.. We are unable to get the php.ini concept to work. Is there something I need to do to enable/allow users to do this for their account?

DNS And Domain- Setting Up DNS With DirectAdmin
I've got DirectAdmin installed, and my domain name (misacampo.org) hosted with XeoDomains.com.

I'm wondering how I set up my DNS so that whenever I point more domains to my VPS their DNS will be set to ns1.misacampo.com and ns2.misacampo.com.

Would it be as simple as pointing my domain to my VPS IP, then setting up this in DirectAdmin?:

Add Zone
Domain Name:
IP Address:
Name Server 1:
Name Server 2:

Would I enter:
Add Zone
Domain Name: misacampo.org
IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Name Server 1: ns1.misacampo.org
Name Server 2: ns1.misacampo.org

Then point my domain to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, and set it up my domain at XeoDomains.com like so:

Add New Child Name Server
Host Name: ns1.misacampo.org
Ip Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

and

Add New Child Name Server
Host Name: ns2..misacampo.org
Ip Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Would this work? I'm looking to do a quick shift from my old CPS (LXAdmin) to my new VPS (DirectAdmin) with at little downtime as possible. Do I need to set up any other records for the domain for my email accounts to work, or would DirectAdmin take care of all this?

BoxVPS = Useless | STAY AWAY From This 'company'
URL: http://www.boxvps.com

Their recent promotion thread:

http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=889733

Extremely non-professional service. Took them 48 hours to setup my VPS. Also had to create a support ticket. And when it was finally delivered, there was no DirectAdmin on it. Specially disturbing, since I actually paid for a monthly license.

Not to mention that their responses are very vague. They claim to apply the promotions (triple disk space, double bandwidth) 24 hours after they setup the VPS. I have no idea why they do that.

Moreover, they have false advertising on their VPS page (Instant Activation..where it should read 'We don't activate your VPS unless you create a support ticket).

A speedtest from the VPS showed that the VPS is capable of bursting to a maximum of 10mbps, while average speed is barely 2mbps.

Stay away from these guys. They're potential scammers. They WILL scam.. sooner or later.

Looking For Host That Supports $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']

Dedicated IP, PHP, MySQL, .htaccess support
preferably CPanel - not Plesk
Less than $120 / year

While Setup DNS For 1 Domain.de
One of our customers need to use a domain.de (.de ext), he registered the domain using godaddy, and godaddy have a few very special requirements for .de domains:

• The first 3 bits of the IP address (C-class) is different for each name server.
• A glue record is necessary for the domain on the name servers.
• The SOA (Start of Authority) must be within the following guidelines:

refresh : 10000 - 86400
retry: 1800 -28800
expire: 604800 - 3600000
ttl: 180 - 345600

This is all done, 2 different C class IPs for each name servers, glue record, and SOA has been configured between specified values. Because of the 2 C class, we created DNS at server1, and pointed all www traffic to server2 (where the domain.de will be hosted)

This is the DNS zone at server1 (an Ensim server):

$ORIGIN .
$TTL 3600 ; 1 hour
sitename.de IN SOA nameserver1.server.com. support@hostingcompany.com. (
2008010804 ; serial
10000 ; refresh (1 hour)
1800 ; retry (10 minutes)
604800 ; expire (2 weeks)
345600 ; minimum (1 hour)
)
NS nameserver1.server.com.
NS nameserver2.server2.com.
$TTL 86400 ; 1 day
A XX.XX.XX.XX
$ORIGIN sitename.de.
ftp A XX.XX.XX.XX
www A XX.XX.XX.XX

This is the DNS zone at server2 (an cPanel server):

; Modified by Web Host Manager
; Zone File for sitename.de
$TTL 3600
@ 86400 IN SOA nameserver2.server2.com. support@hostingcompany.com. (
2008010804
10000
1800
604800
345600
)

sitename.de. 86400 IN NS nameserver2.server2.com.
sitename.de. 86400 IN NS nameserver3.server2.com.

sitename.de. 14400 IN A XX.XX.XX.XX

localhost.sitename.de. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1

sitename.de. 14400 IN MX 0 sitename.de.

mail 14400 IN CNAME sitename.de.
www 14400 IN A sitename.de.
ftp 14400 IN A XX.XX.XX.XX
While checking the domain at [url], an error appears:

Zone sitename.de.
Primary nameserver1.server.com. IP_ADDRESS_HERE
Secondary nameserver2.server2.com. IP_ADDRESS_HERE

Test results

---- fatal ----
f: [TEST SOA record present]: server failure (IN/SOA: sitename.de.)

* nameserver2.server.com./IP_ADDRESS_HERE

I have verified every single thing at sitename.de.db on both servers at /var/named/, disabled DNS Recursion protection, stopped firewall, and the error continues.

And the error as you can see only happens with SOA at second server.

Domain Dns And Configuration
I've recently been trying to get my domain name volmasoft.com onto my new vps.

What i've done so far:
* setup a host for ns1.volmasoft.com to go to 69.162.73.83
* setup a host for ns2.volmasoft.com to go to 69.162.73.84
* Set volmasoft.com to use ns1.volmasoft.com and ns2.volmasoft.com.

After 3 days it's finally gone off the godaddy page and proporgated (or so I thought)

I now get an "address not found" I can't trace the domain, nor ping it as it can't resolve the domain. However the whois does show that it's set to the ns1 and ns2 nameservers and IP of 69.162.73.83.

Domain Name Server DNS Pointing
Hello all, hope someone can help.

I have a domain incl. hosting (fanferwalde.com) and three extra domain names, fanferwalde.nl , fanfalingasate.com , fanfalingasate.nl (all three without hosting) who I want to point to fanferwalde.com.

Before I bought the extra domains I asked the provider if I could point the extra domains to the “head” domain (fanferwalde.com).
Yes, that was possible they said so I bought the extra domains.
I asked the provider to help with the configuration to point them to the head domain but they refused, I must do it by myself……………………..
There is no possibility they do it when I pay extra for it so I feel pressed to take also a hosting for the extra domains; then I can make a redirect on each index page.

All domain names have an own DNS control panel. I have full access to this.

The first picture is the DNS from the head domain.

The second picture is the DNS from one of the extra domains I want to point to the head domain.

What must I put where so the website from fanferwalde.com will appear when I write fanferwalde.nl in the browser?
THANKS in advance!!!

(Sorry for my bad English, I’m Dutch)

Domain Name Server DNS Cluster
I´m running 4 servers on a cpanel - dns - cluster.

- 1 running cpanel (srv01)
- 3 running cpanel-dns-only (cluster01 - cluster03)

My DNS config is:

srv01 - dns1.domain.com
cluster01 - dns2.domain.com

I ´ve setup on srv01:
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)
- cluster03 (standalone)

On cluster01:
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)
- cluster03 (standalone)

And on cluster02 and cluster03, I did something like that:
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster03 (standalone)
And
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)

1. So, is that correct?

2. It seems that when I click on 'syncronize all DNS records on all the servers' only cluster01 and srv01 got all the DNS records. So is it normal?

Yet If I add a domain on cluster02 for example, where I need to add the DNS? cluster02 named.conf or on cluster01/srv01?

Domain Name Server (DNS) Changes With Subdomains
I currently have shared hosting, but am getting VPS with another company. I'd like to keep my domains on my original hosting and direct the domains to the new server. I've been reading and it doesn't seem that hard to change for a regular domain. The problem is I don't seem to understand how to do the same for a subdomain. I keep reading about the A record and CNAME, but just don't get it.

Does anyone have any experience with this. Do I just put the IP address for the new server in the A record? I just want to make sure I know what's going on before I order my new hosting and find out it's not possible or something.

I'm also curious if mail, like myname@mydomain.com will continue to work. Or is there something I need to change for this as well.

CPanel Domain Name Server (DNS)
After spending 1 hour wondering why all domains suddenly stopped working and the hosting server was showing no signs of fail.

A simple dns service restart on my secondary dns server fixed this.

Is there any way to auto restart the dns service upon failure on the cpanel dns only build?

Also why would the secondary dns server failing, cause the domain to stop working. The primary dns/hosting server was fine.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Mixup
I am currently a hosting reseller. I moved all of my 44 accounts to a new reseller host, and I pointed my custom nameservers to the new host's IP's today.

MAJOR PROBLEM - When you type in my domain of www(dot)shoppepro(dot)com, you see one of my customer's websites www(dot)alltiedupbowtique(dot)com!!!!
My website should look like this: http : / / 74.86.84.168 /

Besides that,

40 of my 44 accounts are down completely. I've opened a ticket at my reseller but no one is getting back to me. This is very embarrassing. I use cPanel/WHM. Can anyone offer a possible solution?

Domain Name Server (DNS)service?
Right now I've got some users with their own domains. If I ever want to switch hosts, they'll have to switch their DNS around themselves.

I'd prefer to pay for a host-independent DNS so they'll never need to touch their DNS again. Is such a thing available?

Running Your Own Domain Name Server (DNS)
1) What does it take to run your own DNS server?
2) How to determine server specs?
3) Where to locate?
4) Do you need multiple server?
5) How do you manage DNS entries on the server?
6) Is there commercial software to do this? I've heard of PowerDNS.

Where can I get more information on this subject?

Have I Got BIND Domain Name Server (DNS) Right?
Ive been learning alot about BIND and DNS, id like someone to check over what ive learn't to make sure my knowledge is correct.

A Zone:

A zone is basically 'similar' to a sub-domain but the domain google.com would not be a sub-domain, so a zone is not a sub-domain. In the domain google.com 'google' would be a deligated zone from the TLD 'com'. In another example: ny.google.com , 'ny' would be a zone for google's 'new york' department, if they had one.

Hosts:

The host name is usually the most left word in a domain or you can look at it as the leaves on an inverted tree in the DNS System. Examples:

www.google.com = 'www' would be the host
mail.sitepoint.com = 'mail' would be the host
ny.google.com = 'ny' would NOT be a host because its a 'zone' and does not offer a 'service' like ftp, mail, www ect. would. Unless 'ny' was intended to be a service then it would be a host, but it would have to become a leaf in the inverted tree, so you wouldn't ba able to create any zones from it like 'mail.ny.google.com' ... if that makes sense.

Nameservers:

If i used BIND on my server to manage my Zones and DNS information (which is pretty much standard), that would be my Nameserver. Its job would be to convert human recognizable names into computer recognizable names/numbers/ip.

My nameserver would only have authority over zones that are not deligated. So an example, 'com' deligate 'mydomainname' to me (mydomainname.com) they have no authority over that zone. So if i set up a nameserver on mydomain.com they have no authority over mydomainname or any zone under that.

Domain Namespace

The Domain Namespace was setup to replace the method used by ARPA (later DARPA) in the 60's in an effort to create a database of hosts that were easy to administer and reduced the time and server load on the old skool HOSTS.TXT method.

A domain namespace is a way to identify the different domains. Im not to good at explaining what i mean but basically ill illustrate this example:

google.com and google.net both have the same names, so the namespace in this example would the the TLD's 'net' and 'com' to seperate them.

Go a bit deeper for example:

cd.music.com and cd.disk.com , both have the same TLD and sub-domain's so the namespace here is the first-level domain 'music' and 'disk'.

Sub-Domains
Sub-Domains are similar to zones, in a way. A domain name: 'google.com' might have the sub-domain 'video.google.com' which links to the video section of google. 'video' is not a deligated zone from 'google' neither is it a host as such, so its a sub-domain.

Im probably slightly confused on some parts, and im open for comments. I dont fully understand alot of it, but what ive learnt so far took a good day to get my head around. If anythings wrong, id like to know.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Needed
I need 2 dedicated DNS servers.

I'd like one server on the east coast and one on the west or close to it.

They will be used for primary ans secondary dns only.

Simply running Bind and webmin.

I need cheap servers since they are pushing dns data around.

Not very bandwidth intensive or cpu resource intensive.

The most important thing is that the backbone redundancy is amazing.

You can get a good server at a lot of place these day, but who has the staff and backbone to make sure these servers are not bottlenecked and up and running.

Confused About Domain Name Server (DNS)
My domain registrar does not have the facility to create nameservers which means I can't create my own DNS for my websites.

I wanted to create ns1.smsmasters.co.uk and ns2.smsmasters.co.uk as my DNS.

Does 123-reg allow you to setup your own nameservers and assign an ip?

I'm really confused as to what to do. In the past I used my host's DNS.

Moving Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
I'm trying to move sites from one cPanel server to another. Presently, I am using the clustered DNS option in WHM to keep the two servers DNS in sync, which has allowed me to avoid messing with switching name servers for domains as I moved them. Now, I'm looking to turn off the original server, but that server is the one hosting the name servers that most of the domains use (ns1 and ns2.serverforest.com).

I'd like to move those name servers over to the new server, which I presume is as simple as re-registering them in the control panel over at my registrar. However, I presume I also need to bind IPs on the new server to the original DNS names. However, if I do that and the DNS cluster syncing occurs, won't that mess things up while I await the registrar making the changes? Do I need to turn off clustering before making the switch?

Is there a way to do this seamlessly?

Also, for testing purposes I created ns3 and ns4.serverforest.com on the new server. If I now want to move over ns1 and ns2, can I set them on the same two IPs that ns3 and ns4 "own" without any trouble?
