Get The IP Of A RDC Dictionary Attacker....
Nov 24, 2007
I have to deal with a lot of dictionary attacks. One evening, I got fed up with them and decided to do something about it. So, I wrote a service in VB.NET that monitors the Windows event log. I check for too many incorrect login attempts to MS SQL.
If I find someone attempting to dictionary attack, Windows shows the IP address of the invalid login attempt in the event log. So, I parse the event message, grab the IP address, and use IPSec to block the would-be intruder. Excellent!
Ok. That takes care of SQL attackers. But, what about RDC (Remote Desktops or Terminal Services) attackers? I started using 2x's SecureRDP. It works great, but the logging feature is broken. It doesn't accurately log the attackers' IP addresses. So, how can I get the IP address of those attempting to login via RDC? Anyone know? There has to be a way.

RHEL3/Cpanel/Exim
So one of my domains is getting a dictionary attack. It is a popular domain and "big deal" it happens all the time. Well, this time it is the most ruthless distributed dictionary attack I have ever seen.
Today marks the one week period and emails are flooding in 10 to 15 a second (of course none of them ever get delivered). It is like hail pounding on a thin tin roof and the denial/logging alone has the server load at least quadrupled!
Oh yeh, the best part. I have a beautiful list of over 7,000 banned IP addresses (and growing every minute, now THATS DISTRIBUTED!).

My site is being attacked by what appears to be a dictionary attack on my mail account. They are sending e-mails to random accounts at my domain from random e-mail accounts from somewhere else. Each of their messages is coming from a unique e-mail address and a unique IP address.
Now, we have some dictionary ACL installed that basically blocks any IP address that is caught doing this. So we are blocking tons of IP addresses, but they keep coming at us with new ones. We also have it setup so that the mail is rejected right away for any accounts that aren’t actual e-mail accounts of yours. However, they are hitting the server so hard that it doesn’t seem to be making any difference.

last nigth when i was talking with the support center and i past my root passwd ..
after 10-15 mnts some attacker has change my page (index.html)
the server is new .. i just take VPS server before 3 days .. so there is no way to upload or run any php script ( worm ) in my server kz i didn't install anything there else (.html) pages ..
so i stop my VPS tell today and now i change my password and run the command to find any php files in my Vhosts folder wich content my sites directory...
i didn't find anything there and everything looking as a Defualt..
now the question is there anyway for the attacker to hack NixCore V1.5.0 Support Center ...?
and if there any way to check my server if there any uploading new files? whatever is .php ; .pl ; .rar ; .gif ; etc ...
and what command to show what the user group have the root permission?

Let's say my site was getting DDOS'd. Let's say I suspected I knew the attacker's home IP address. Would there be anything I could do with this information to either end the attacks or penalize the attacker?

Has anyone used Attacker.net for server admin work, especially on FreeBSD? My other Admin team bailed on me, so I am looking for a new team to Secure and Harden my box. I have searched the boards, and have not found a review on them yet.
