Locking Users In Their Homedir
Dec 18, 2007
a way to lock users in their directory. E.g. if I host a domain mydomain.com, I need that the owner of this domain can access (read, write, execute via ssh) only the folder www/mydomain.com and nothing else. The solution does not to be a ultrasecure one.
1] adjusting privileges (e.g. deny execute on dirs for the "others") seems a sure way to make the server unfunctional
2] rbash - when I set shell to rbash for a test user, the user can no longer connect to server through winscp

[root@server001 root]# iptables --flush
[root@server001 root]# service iptables restart
Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ]
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter mangle nat [ OK ]
Unloading iptables modules: [FAILED]
Applying iptables firewall rules: [ OK ]
As soon as I restarted it, I got locked out again. Disabling iptables enables me back in ssh. What can I do to fix this?

I don't know why, but the server locks up daily at different times of the day. I have to reboot, flush iptables and it will happen again hours later.
I don't know what to look for, what logs, etc.
I'm confident it is something within iptables
I have apf/bfd installed and dos deflate as well.
How can I trace this?
Nothing suspicious in /tmp either

I have a (dedicated) server out of control. It is managed by a 3rd party company who has never been able to get the spam and server load under control. Loads average over 5! and there is no activity in top other than sendmail and mailscanner (with Ensim).
I turned off mailscanner and sendmail while I typed this and server load went to .08.
I'm going to switch (dedicated) servers to a new provider (for reasons above plus a few others) which will include managed service from the server provider as well.
There are only a few programs that need to run on this server. VBulletin is the main concern.
I want to lock down all mail access. I want vbulletin to be able to send outgoing email as part of its administration and as part of its member notifications.
I don't want ANYONE OUTSIDE THE SERVER to be able to send mail through this server.
One idea I have had is to use DNS to assign all MX records of every domain on the machine to the free gmail service.
I have one domain on this machine (and important domain) that gets thousands and thousands of spam. I assigned its' MX records to NO-IP.com who filters and forwards email to me. That has worked - but server load never budged.

I'm running apache to serve PHP files on (/home/www/) and thttpd to serve images on (/home/www/images)
thttpd runs on a different IP than apache, apache only listens to its IP.
After doing this, the number of apache processes decreased significantly, however performance has gone down, and apache is starting to crash very frequently (swapping).
Could there be a file-locking issue? Do I have to separate the images folder from the www folder?

I've seen that a similar topic was posted earlier today, but I have more specific question. I'm looking for the e-mail only hosting. Requirements:
* dedicated IP
* SMTP + SSL (TLS)
* POP3/IMAP + SSL (TLS)
* up to 10 e-mail addresses from various domains
* forwarders (10 or more)
* 1-5 GB storage
* 10 GB bandwidth
* budget: the less the better, but I'll pay any reasonable amount of money if the service is good. Basically I need to find a provider at which I can keep my e-mail address once and for all. (I need a few e-mails only, a few forwarders, 100 MB storage and 1 GB bandwidth but I stated more so I don't run out on resources)
Is there any significant difference between SSL and TLS or is it all mainly in the proprietary vs open standard?
Is there any good reason why not to use Google Apps for this purpose? I've read that some people are concerned about privacy. Is there any pro that can comment on this (privacy issue) and remain objective?
One last (dumb?) question. What is the purpose of domain locking? Before AuthCodes were introduced I could see the reason for locking domains, but why would anyone want to lock the domain these days? (and yet I see majority still does) I mean, noone can initiate the transfer without providing AuthCode (can he?) and isn't that alone good enough to keep the domain safe? And if someone manages to gain control to the control panel to read AuthCode then he can easily unlock the domain so I see no additional layer of security.

On my server, users can connect to any database as long as they have the database user and password. This makes it easier to hack any database on the server.
What I want to do is to make the users can only connect to their own databases and not other's.
I tried changing the localhost ip address but it didn't work ( I assume I didn't do it the right way)

I have a few system administrators having full access to the Windows 2003 servers. I fear some of them might be messing up with the server like opening websites on the server or downloading files on the server. I want to create unprivileged users to login to the server so that they can do the basic tasks like reading the log files etc. Can anybody give me the steps for the same?

I've searched around these forums (VPS specifically) and cannot find any recent "reviews" or opinions on HostDime's VPS offerings.
Anyone using them? They seem to have the most bang/buck and I'd like to get a more recent review opinion on them.

we have a WHM account... we have different accounts on that...and for each account, there are add-on domains underneath that. (i hope you know what i mean)
and we set it up to use only SFTP to connect to server. no FTP.
after we have set it up that way, it seems that we can only connect to SFTP using 1 user/pass for each account... that is the same user/pass we use for Cpanel of each account.
say, i have Account A... under Account A, i have addon domains: A1.com, A2.com, A3.com...
setting SFTP only on that server, all those addon domains of Account A, can only use 1 user/pass to login to SFTP which is the cpanel access also of Account A.
question is.... is this behavior correct??
how can we create a different user for each add-on domain?

with webmin can I use it to add FTP users to say pure ftpd? and does it work with lighttpd? If I'm thinking about it right webmin just allows us to control the service and modify the configuration files right?

I hope this is in the correct section. Secondly, here is my issue that I am hoping someone can help with. I run a fairly successful video streaming site with several thousand members, and several thousand videos. I am trying to determine how many users I have online at any given time. Does anyone know of a piece of software/code out there that can provide me with this information in real time?

Does anyone have an experience with this host? In my search I found several favorable comments. I've been collecting different hosts names to consider from those of you kind enough to post them on your signatures. I'm with A Small Orange and am looking for a backup host, or will change the DNS to the backup if they are better.
Others I am considering are Aspire and Known Host. I'll need a shared plan. My site is anywhere from 350 to 450MB's. I try to get twice the space I need because I can have a spike here and there since clients are always downloading my voice files for their projects.

My user said he can not view his site from his IP address. His friend from the same ISP also canot access the site.
But i can access from my ISP. So I think probably his IP address has been baned. Therefore, how can I check that? and how can i make his IP range available back?

Does anybody have a working Blurstorm number? I've tried 850-445-6937 which I found on the internet, but no answer.
Long story short. Signed up to host my website. Credit card charged and approved, but I never received a user name/password confirmation. I'm not able to log on to anything. It has been 4 months and they charge my cc every month which I dispute with the cc company. I can't cancel the web account. My next step is to cancel my credit card.
I have emailed 4 times, left messages at the above number, talked with the chat line. No response. This company is a scam.
Number one rule in chosing a host company, always make sure they have a working customer service number (call it and talk with someone).

I have a web server on my dedicated server with several web sites owned by a friend and myself. I am now wanting to setup a gameserver on the same box and will need to give someone I don't know or trust ssh access so that they can kill the gameserver and/or re-execute it as well as modify the configuration files.
How can I go about accomplishing this?

I have a dedicated server with CentOS and cPanel/WHM
I want to know how would I limit each user usage of RAM and or CPU
I see HUGE web hosts are doing that , they give you 9999999 diskspace and 99999999 bandwidth but they limit your RAM & CPU use to a tiny number
I want to know how could I do that in order to keep my resources good .
