Jarhosts Limited (Fraudulant Activity)

Jan 23, 2009

Last week, we received a letter [url] from Companies House (the UK entity which governs companies).

It was addressed to Exoware, with all the correct contact details, reminding me to submit statutory documents by a certain date or face a fine and/or prosecution.
It was sent to us, because apparently, Exoware is a director of Jarhosts limited. This is not true. We have never even heard of Jarhosts limited up to this point, but it appears they had ceased trading by the time we received the letter.

A few emails were exchanged between us and Companies House, which didn't really get us anywhere as they couldn't seem to understand our position, so I phoned them up myself. I got through to someone and explained our position and she informed me about the company and said they registered Exoware as a director of Jarhosts limited on 05/12/08 and they themselves promptly resigned from the company afterwards, so Exoware was the only remaining director.

After I declared that Exoware had no affiliation whatsoever with Jarhosts limited, she promptly forwarded the case to a department for dealing with fraudulent documents and said the company will dissolve soon and that we may hear from Companies House fraud department in the future.

So, my concerns are now at ease, but my curiosity still remains.

Does anybody know Jarhosts; how long they were around for, who they were owned by, or any relevant information about them? Or does anybody know of any reason that people would sign up a random business in the same industry as a director before bailing out of their own company? It all seems very obscure.

Activity On Ports 1028 And 135

Jan 14, 2008

my Windows 2003 server is showing a very steady amount of action on Port 1028 and Port 135.

The Process is listed as "Unknown" with a PID of 0
The Local IP is 127.0.0.1
The Remote IP is 127.0.0.1
The Remote Port is either 1028 or 135
The State is "TIME_WAIT"
The Protocol is TCP

The path to the executable is blank. At any given time there are at least 20 active processes of this. The virus scan says all is well.

SSH User Activity History

Does CentOS4 logs every activity done by a SSH user? Or is there such script/software to do that?

Limiting User Activity

Jul 29, 2007

I am interested in setup user activity limits to avoid peaks on the server load, I have readen a lot about PAM and limits.conf but still have no idea on how set this limits. Most of the examples are similar to this page http://www.seifried.org/lasg/users/ but they are still confusing to me

>> I would like to setup rules like this:

Customers may not use more than 2% CPU daily, 3% memory daily, run more than 10 simultaneous processes per user, allow any process to run for longer than 30 CPU seconds, run any process that consumes more than 20% of available CPU at any time, or run any process that consumes more than 16 MB of memory.

Highly Suspicious Activity - Log Files

Dec 17, 2007

what to look out for in the log files, but a couple of things jumped out at me over the weekend:

I had 5 of these, I followed the link (I suppose is the referrer) but it takes you to a polish-hosted russian webpage that tries to infect your browser. So DONT VISIT THE WEBSITE unless you're virus checker is fully up to date!

Code:
shop.######.com: [15/Dec/2007:02:52:43 +0000] 87.118.120.23 - - "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 21466 [url] (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; Win64; AMD64)"
As this is only a GET, I'm not sure what the purpose of this really was.

Also I seem to be getting loads of these recently:

Code:
shop.######.com: [17/Dec/2007:08:21:41 +0000] 82.19.60.98 - - "GET /_vti_bin/index.php?main_page=page_not_found HTTP/1.1" 301 5 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; InfoPath.1)"
Which I read is an automated hacker-bot checking for an unpatched MS server.

So my question is this;

What's the most effective thing we (as webmasters/hosts) can do to combat and report this sort of thing so we fight back against what's likely to be related to organised crime?

Rogue Network Activity From Dedicated Box

Aug 6, 2007

I have a dedicated box with Fasthosts and they tell me they've detected that the server is talking out to other networks via IRC although there's no activity on port 53.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of steps to take to find out what this is and eliminate it?

Recent changes to server include...
Started SpamAssassin (with network checks on - could these be the cause?)
Installed Mongrel as a proxy server for RoR apps and configured Apache on port 80 to make use of two Mongrel processes.

Some other data about server as requested on sticky thread on this board:

Linux OS: Fedora Core 6
Kernel: 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
Control Panel: Matrix LSA

Processes (ps -auxf):

Limited Or No Connectivity

Mar 11, 2008

im trying to remotely install WS2003 EE R2 on a dedicated server I have purchased and have an issue. I'm installing it via KVM IP which is cool

however, after installing the network card drivers, I get a "There is no or limited connectivity" etc... so I cannot access the internet or anything on that box.

what do I do from here? how can I make the card work? It is configured to obtain the IP Address automatically as well as using the default DNS. I do have 2 IP Addresses "assigned" to me/my account but dont believe I need to configure them in WS2003?

FragSwitch Limited

Oct 1, 2008

I'm reading a lot of negative experiences here, and of course positive ones as well. When I was looking for a new company to host my website, I had some clear 'demands'.

I'll explain first, I am a player of the MMO EvE online [url] and I'm the CEO of a corporation in that game. For our corporation I wanted to create a portal from which to host all our out of game content. That content includes the usual forum, a killboard, a so called POS tracker, to keep track of fuel levels in our stations, a Shoutcast radio station to provide us with some added entertainment during our gaming, a webmail application to keep in touch with each other and last but not least a teamspeak server so we can chat.

Because it's quite a bit of stuff that I needed hosted and the bandwith some of it swallows up, especially the Shoutcast station that was something I had to look for. I was referred by one of our members to a UK company called FragSwitch Limited [url]. They've got several packages to choose from. I picked their "HARD" package that gives me 5Gb of webspace and 50Gb of traffic, plenty to suit our every need. It's a unlimited package where I can have as many of whatever I want, including e-mail addresses and subdomains. I like cPanel, so any host that uses it gets a plus from me anyway.

I've had my site hosted with them for 3 months now and haven't experienced any downtime, and since the server park is in the UK, lines to at least my country are short and fast, though I haven't heard any of our US based members complain.

So perhaps if you are looking for a complete host, you might wanna look them up, I give them a big thumbs up at least! They may not be the cheapest host out there, but they don't have to be, the service I got when I needed help to set up both my shoutcast and teamspeak servers was excellent and fast and that counts for much more to me.

SSH Connections Limited To 2

May 2, 2008

I signed up for a hosted account with gator and I don't understand something. They tell me it's a policy change for security reasons but the simultaneous SSH connections has been limited to 2. That's just nuts. Is there a real reason why someone would limit this? i need two for editors, one for shell and one for mysql. Minimum of 4. What security concern could cause them to pick 2 as the number?

I just don't get it.

Here's what they said to me.

info: Please wait for a HostGator operator to respond.

Channel Sanderson: Hi. We're working on our website and have run into a small snag. It seems we can only have two open SSH connections at a time this week. We were able to open more a couple weeks ago. Is this something that you can change?

Kella J.: Ok, the issue is.. You are only alllowed 2, no matter what..
Channel Sanderson: I believe we are not understanding each other. We're not trying to connect 10 times in a minute. We just need more connections. 2 is insufficient. We need a minimum of 4 simultaneous connections to our server.

Kella J.: I am sorry, I checked with my admin.. he said there is only a limit of 2, period..

Channel Sanderson: This is an unnecessary limitation in my view and badly limits my ability to do what I need to do.

Apachetop / Munin / Nagios - Best Way To View Apache + Other Service Activity

Nov 12, 2008

On Cpanel/WHM. I have just moved from a VPS to a dedicated server. I reinstalled munin, so get some stats via that. I used to have apachetop loaded on my VPS for when I wanted a 'near realtime' streaming view of apache access.

I'm wondering what the best solution is to get a good view of apache, like what apachetop did, plus also it would be nice to have a real-time monitor of MySQL activity, HDD activity (such as I/O queues, etc. Something along the lines of the perfmon on Windows servers.

What is my best option?

Also, with Nagios, when I look at the website, it seems there are two options. Load it on a single server and then load the stats via [url]or have the Nagios 'stat collector' on one machine, and have it gathering stats from multiple machines.

If you only install it on a single dedicated server, do you really have to be on the console and connect to the Nagios stats via localhost, rather than connecting remotely?
Ideally, I would like a quick, easy to setup solution, but if it takes some configuring, I can deal with it, as long as there is some documentation. My main goal is to get the real time type monitoring, you get with window's perfmon.

Hosting With Un(limited) Bandwidth

Sep 16, 2008

I've always used German hosts because they are much cheaper than my homeland Greek alternatives, the latency (70ms Germany vs 30ms Greece) is bearable.

Until recently I used Strato single cpu dedicated servers, which allowed me 2000gb at 100mb/s. Although I came close, I never actually reached that 2000gb allocation.

Ever since moving to 1und1 (to a quad core) the server's speed difference has attracted more visitors and pageviews. Now my bandwidth usage has gone to 3000gb per month and at peak it requires 20-30mb/s.

The problem is that 1und1 limits you to 10mb/s if you go over 1000gb, and then requires 'resetting' it every 250gb in order to get back to 100mb/s speed.

Does anyone know of a european host that offers truly unlimited bandwidth? Every time I hit the 10mb/s limit, my pageviews go down, users leave the site.

I've contemplated writing a simple heartbeat script that polls the control panel every 5 minutes and checks if the limit has been crossed, at which it will automatically reset it for me.

MySQL Server (limited?)

Nov 22, 2007

I heard something about MySQL being a Open source type of software, it lacks certain features that the paid version of MySQL have. Is this true?

For web hosting companies which has MySQL DB, are they using the open source type or the paid version? Does anybody know?

And if they are using the paid version, who are those web hosting companies?

RackUnlimited.com With Very Limited Connection Speed

Oct 16, 2009

I am using their RVPS-3 plan (30$/mo, 1024 MB RAM, 40 GB drive, 500GB BW) and I am pretty unhappy about the connection and response speeds of their servers - especially during traffic peaks in the US. The server is sometimes so slow that I have to wait 5-10 seconds for a simple HTML page to load. :/

However the hardware itself works fine and for the money is IMO a very good deal. Also tech support is fine, I've had 3 requests so far and all were solved almost immediately (<20 mins). Although during the setup stage they changed the OS WITHOUT letting me know due to installation of an admin panel. They quickly changed it back when I asked them, but it's pretty strange anyway.

It really is a pity that the connection speed is so bad, because other than that I couldn't say a bad word about them. Now I have to consider moving somewhere else...

How To Create An FTP Account With Limited Access

May 27, 2008

I want to create a special FTP account as such:

- The user would only be able to view and upload to one directory, such as mysite.com/images/

- The user would only be able to upload .jpg files, no code/php/html or anything, just jpg pictures.

- There would be a limit of upload. (ie. only 50 MB of upload per day)

- The user would only be able to delete the files that he uploaded. (or the user would only be able to view the files he uploaded)

Limited HTTPD Connections. How To Not Limit Them

Apr 13, 2007

When I SSH'd into my box, I received this message:

example.pl is on this server. HTTPD connections have been limited to restrict this script from overloading server. All servers that have hosted this file need to have extremely limited http connections or have this file removed. It is poorly written and intense on CPU/memory.

How do I go and allow example.pl to be run on my server again? I use it solely for personal sites, so I wish to not have this file blocked and be allowed to run. I've searched for almost an hour now so I figured I would go ahead and post to see if any more experienced members could assist.

Limited Versus Unlimited Bandwidth

Dec 12, 2007

I am having trouble working out which host to choose for a new project.

I usually opt for Webmania or Heart Internet - they are excellent providers but Webmania now applies a bandwidth cap that may be too low and Heart's cheapest package does not provide sub-domains. I can't be sure whether 12GB will be big enough for a site that will contain galleries of high-res images (I have no prior experience with caps and traffic predictions are impossible at this time) and to get sub-domains from Heart means a £90 per year package (too much).

Streamline is one of the few good-value providers that do not cap bandwidth, but I have concerns about the effect that this may have on server speed given that it is bound to attract the kind of sites that are really heavy on bandwidth. This point was mentioned in an article recently.

If I take the last option, will I be hampering the performance of my site?
