Determining Operating System (Linux)
Without having all of the operating systems at my disposal for testing, I would like to figure out a way to determine the operating system of a remotely accessed Linux machine. It seems pretty strange though, since cPanel reports both machines I am using as being CENTOS Enterprise 4.5 i686, yet one's uname -a reports: Code: Linux hostsentry.crucialwebhost.com 2.6.9-023stab044.4-enterprise #1 SMP Thu May 24 17:41:23 MSD 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Code: Linux main.7kb.org 2.6.9-55.0.6.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue Sep 4 21:36:00 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I'm assuming there is a way to determine the OS from this information. Anyone know how?

Rescue Cd - Kernel Panic
I have a hard drive installed with CentOS 5 before. Now the hard drive had crash (kernel panic) I insert in Fedora rescue cd and succesfully booted and it mount under /mnt/sysimage The question is how do I get into the hard drive? I just need to copy 2 files inside my home directory I cannot see any sdb or anything like that /dev except for sda1~sda15 which I believe is the rescue cd image #df /dev /dev /tmp/loop0 /mnt/runtime /dev/sda2 /mnt/sysimage /dev/sda1 /mnt/sysimage/boot /dev/sda5 /mnt/sysimage/tmp /dev /mnt/sysimage/dev i'm now at sh-3.2#

Rescue O People, Experts My Database Hacked
Somebody knew password databases of my forum do not know how then enter and modify the forum style templates and add iframe codes. Among the actions of its currency, although that problem still: Initially I found phpshell uploaded on my site and I delete him , and I realized that there is no other phpshell. 1- I have changed database password and ftp password. 2 - I coded config file using zend 3- I make chmod 751 for directory and 644 for files.

Linux System Compromised, Hacker In As "root"
I've been trying to fight off a hacker's attack for the past 24 hours. Chronologically, this is how the events evolved: - Yesterday, I tried SSH-ing into my server as usual and I got an error saying that the host's key was not recognized, which made a bit suspicious - I tried logging into my VPS' PowerPanel, but my root password did not work, which I found disturbing. I reached out to support and they reset the password - I ignored Putty's warning and SSH-ed into the server and was greeted by this, which I've never seen before: Code: Last login: Wed Mar 14 2007 14:13:35 -0500 No mail. This made even more conscious and I started actively searching for indicators of a breach. - The following processes were running, and I did not recognize them: Code: named 15756 0.0 0.4 36088 2256 ? S Mar14 0:00 /usr/sbin/named -u named -t /var/named/chroot dmorg 26360 0.0 0.1 2264 872 pts/2 T 20:40 0:00 sh -c (cd /usr/share/man && (echo ".ll 14.2i"; echo ".pl 1100i"; /usr/bin/gunzip -c '/usr/share dmorg 26361 0.0 0.1 2264 512 pts/2 T 20:40 0:00 sh -c (cd /usr/share/man && (echo ".ll 14.2i"; echo ".pl 1100i"; /usr/bin/gunzip -c '/usr/share - Then I found a user called 'pma' in the /home directory, which I had never created. I could not find any suspicious files in the user's directory - I finally spotted the point of breach in /var/log/messages: Code: Mar 15 15:05:25 xxxxxxxxx passwd(pam_unix)[28121]: password changed for root Mar 15 15:06:34 xxxxxxxxx su(pam_unix)[30182]: session opened for user news by (uid=0) Mar 15 15:07:16 xxxxxxxxx su(pam_unix)[30182]: session closed for user news Mar 15 15:22:04 xxxxxxxxx sshd[20118]: Listener created on port 22. Mar 15 15:22:04 xxxxxxxxx sshd[20119]: Daemon is running.

He had created a new user overnight and a directory in there called "...". The folder contains various files: Code: [root@xxxxxxxxx root]# ls -al total 445 drwxr-x--- 8 root root 1024 Mar 16 15:48 . drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1024 Mar 16 15:48 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 1004 1004 1024 Dec 17 08:57 ... -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1126 Aug 23 1995 .Xresources -rw------- 1 root root 14641 Mar 16 15:47 .bash_history -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24 Jun 10 2000 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 234 Jul 5 2001 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 176 Aug 23 1995 .bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 210 Jun 10 2000 .cshrc -rw------- 1 root root 38 Jul 26 2005 .mysql_history drwx------ 2 root root 1024 Mar 15 18:01 .ssh drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Mar 15 15:21 .ssh2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 196 Jul 11 2000 .tcshrc Code: [root@xxxxxxxxx root]# cd "..."

Starting A Datacenter
What if i got a really good connection to this house i have in Sweden and bought some servers there, is it a good idea and would it sell? How hard is it to get a good connection, the house is in a fairly populated area of Sweden and i have partners who could help run it and do support 24 hours. But its just a thought and we would start small. What do you guys think?

Datacenter From My House
I just got a phone call yesterday because my house I just moved into came with a small peice of land about 3 miles away * no clue why* And a company wanted to rent it out for colocation. Is this a scam or should I do it? They said it would only hold 60 servers. The building on the land they would be renting already has backup generators emergency lights etc just no internet leading to it.

DataCenter In Toronto
I want to get a server in Toronto and am looking for some datacenter recommendations for the area. I seen a thread from last May but would like some more current info. I’ve been looking at either ColoHotel or 3z, does anyone have any experience with either of these locations? Also does anyone have any other suggestions on who to look at or who not to? My requirements are pretty basic 100Mbit would be better then not, remote reboot, 24/7 access.

I have a old pentium 2 lying around. I was actually wondering if I install a smll linux distro such as DSL linux, is there a way to make it into a fileserver only? 3 comptuers will connect to it. My main computer and server will use the same internet (ive got a 5MBS line but right now I am just doing an expirment so I dont care if its slow.) theres a laptop which connects wirelessly using my neighbours (i dont have wireless) so thats a whole different IP and differnt ISP. and my dads computer which is about 3 KM away. So I want to do it, store like a couple of word documents

How To Build Your Own Datacenter
I am making some business plans and having an independent datacenter is one of them. Certainly it isn't easy as leasing a space, and buy some stuff. Some of the things I have to watch out for are network activity, getting bandwidth support, power supply, get an engineering company to design the facility and a lot of stuff. Are there any companies who handles all that? What would be the specific steps to accomplish my agenda?

DataCenter Move
We are going to be moving our 10 Servers and various other equipment to a new facility here in Chicago. I have a few question I wanted to ask to backup my current thinking. We are primarily a web host so all of out users either have their DNS set to our DNS server or they have a dedicated IP and an A record pointed to it. Currently we run a private NAT and have private IP's on the internal servers. The firewall handles the NAT'ing between the public and private IP's. The primary question I have is if we change the IP address at our registrar for our DNS will the change still be subject to the 24-48 hours of propagation? Since we are not changing the NS records and only changing the IP's I would have to assume that his changeover should be fairly quick. Two, im looking for the best way to setup our new cab are they any network admin photo gallery's?

Datacenter Facilities
1)I have searched the net for power calculators but i haven't found any that did everything i needed. I am trying to figure out what size generator i need. I will obviously be speaking with a electrician, but I am just trying to get a idea. I need to figure out how many amps at 120V a certain size generator will put out. Starting at XKW/480V/3-Phase, how do I convert that down to XAMP/120V/Single-Phase. And what is the typical loss by stepping the power down with transformers and running through a large UPS. 2)I am looking at not putting raised floor in, what are the current methods being used to run AC power overhead. My biggest concern is interference with my Cat5E cables that would also run over head.

PowerVPS Datacenter
I chose PowerVPS due to their west coast IDC's proximity to Asian networks, where much of my traffic comes from. The IP provided in pre-sales confirms the connection from Asia to the San Jose IDC. However, now that I'm all set up, all connections from Asia and the west are routing to their east coast IDC in Virginia. Not getting much help on this in tickets with them. Does anyone here have a PowerVPS server that is actually in their west coast IDC?

Lb/sqft For Datacenter
What is considered acceptable for the max lb/sqft for a datacenter? I am seeing most raised floor setups are set to handle 500-600 lb/sqft, however I see datacenter providers (NYI) stating their load capacity to be 100 lb/sqft. Which one is to be believed here when trying to support about 7 cabinets in 300sqft?

Joe's Datacenter Colocation
I'm looking around for a nice, cheap colo place for a Dell PE 2650 I just purchased... Requirements * At least burstable to 10Mbit... dedi 10 is nice.. 100 is nicer.. * About 1000GB xfer should be good to start, I guess I can work with less * Cheap IPs with no problems obtaining more * Cheap remote hands since there's really not much in the RI/MA area. I will be going to school in upstate NY so I guess something around there would be cool too. I'm willing to ship anywhere though. * Discounted/included DirectAdmin would be really nice... * Not going to be selling IRCd stuff unless it's allowed and nice firewalls. I will probably only use it for a personal IRCd and irssi session. Prospects * Joe's Datacenter [url] This company seems too good to be true... they offer great services for great prices and have many good features. I also spoke to an admin who said he will be able to include a DirectAdmin license for free. They include 5 IPs right off the bat. I got about a reply in an hour at like midnight from Joe (or just another Joe) himself.. and I'm not even a customer! They do free reboots. $50 to colo our 2U with 1500GB and 100Mbit. It's 25 extra for unmetered w/10Mbit but I'm sure the admin would be willing to just offer more b/w staying at 100Mbit instead of moving to a 10Mbit port. * FDC Servers Great reputation.. Pretty good prices for what I would imagine to be quality service. Not much more I can say about them.. Did not ask them about DirectAdmin. Conclusion I think I'm mainly just looking for any input on Joe's Datacenter because I really think I want to start my company there. If anyone has any better offers I'm open to anything.. but DirectAdmin would be really nice... just remember that. I'm also looking for a solution to HyperVM... LxLabs (to-be LxCenter I guess?) is now releasing it for free.. I'm not sure if it's patched yet or not though. I think I might just start with HyperVM for now since noone is going to target us.. seriously.. we are two kids with like 2 clients right now. We can always migrate later if HyperVM never takes off again.

Does Location Of Datacenter Matter
We currently have two vps's one in chicago and one in dallas. We have our primary in chicago because we figured fewer hops=faster load times for website. is this really true? right now we get pings around 35-60ms to chicago and 60-170ms to dallas. does this major difference really amount to anything?

Myvps, Softlayer Datacenter
I used to have a vps. I was a customer of myvpshost.com. I was using it for three years. Now for more than 100 hours, my vps is down. I have tried everthing I can do. I've emailed, used tickets, and phone. Nobody answered. Nothing happened. Then with a little search, I learned my vps is on softlayer's datacenter. I've used online help chat with softlayer. They said they cannot help. However, I desperatly need to JUST restart my server. The service is critical. And the vps is down for more than 4 days. I know that it is the responsibility of myvps. However, they disappeared. I can not reach them. And I have to access my data. First question: Could anybody here explain me, for just a restart why they don't help? If they need money, I am ready to pay. ( oh just a restart.) Second question: If I prove the data on the server is mine, can I use legal authorities to get my data? I'm trying to say that, they are not allowing to access the data which belongs to me. In short, can I go to court?

Which Datacenter Offers The Best Support
If i had a server i would much pefer that the center had a forum community and live support to help when and if you're unsure. I guess that would be an extra managed service with most providers I couldn't handle if i had a prob and i had to wait on forum replys A good deal on a dedicated while good support is allways available. Someone that offers unmetered monthly bandwidth packages.

Running HSRP At The Datacenter
We are trying to build in additional resilience to our Datacenter. Our provider has suggested they run HSRP on their Layer 3 Cisco switches and we intend to use the Watchguard HA mode for failover on the firewalls. As we are using Netgear Layer 2 switches, we cannot run HSRP on our switches but I understand they will support HSRP as they have 802.1q functionality. Is the best solution for on our own switches to simply run Spanning Tree redundancy? I’ve attached a network diagram of a draft setup.

Datacenter Location Importance
as far as the page load time is concerned - to have a datacenter located as near as possible to your web site viewers. For example, if my site is mainly concerned about European customers, will i have an extra page load time if my web hosting company's datacenter is located in the US? If yes, is it important enough to make me think of transferring my site to a European datacenter?

DataCenter In San Diego
The one I found to be best was an 3Level reseller, Iland located in San Diego, but I find their prices to be a little expensive. We got quoted a 2U @ .5MPBS for $200 a month. We've actually decided on a 1U server, but for a 2U, we still found that to be expensive. If we cant find something here in SD, which is Local for 3 of the 4 business owners, it might be put in Amsterdam with our Developer, this way at least 1 of us can have easy access to it. In Amsterdam, their best colo will go for around $120 a month which has great access to all of US and EU.

Temperature Fluctuations In Datacenter
I have been loosely monitoring the system temperature on my co-located 1U server and have noticed fluctuations of up to 9 degrees Celsius (or around 18 degrees Fahrenheit) depending on the time of day, and the current weather in the city the data center is located. In the dead of night the system usually reads around 28C but in mid afternoon it will get up to 34 - 38C, not terribly hot, but the effect of the constantly changing temps on the hard drives has me concerned. Server load doesn't seem to be a huge contributor to the temp increase since it's peak load times are usually from late evening until early morning, so I'm guessing this is the data center heating up and cooling down following the outside weather patterns. do any of you others see temperature swings like this on your servers and how much would be normal?
