View 5 RepliesWe just got a new windows server and didnt put an antivirus or configure windows firewall, while setting up for the 1st two months.
our IP address has been blocked twice now by this company, on saturday, released on monday and blocked again on tuesday.

we applied to have it removed which they did and blocked it again, they claim we were spamming, which we never did
We have installed mcafee and setup windows firewall.
I have a server which is currently listed under SBL's list(SpamHaus) coz of my DC was having spam issues or something like that. It's a Class 1 block which is kinda serious.
Currently that server is unable to send or receive mails from most places which uses SBL as a spam filter.
My question is if there's a way to re-route the emails from this server to another server which is not listed under the SBL? If it's possible to do so, could you please help tell me what I should do?
I was wondering if I could change the MX records to another server so that everything gets re-routed to another server while the problem with SBL is being resolved.
I've just got a fully manage VPS, unfortunately the newly aquired IP was listed in PBL (policy Block List)by spamhaus which is a nonspam source. I've got the ip de-listed but apparently some servers are still rejecting emails coming from this IP. It have been almost 48 hrs. Question is:
1) How can the IP got listed when it's never been use? How can we check IP is indeed a 'fresh' or pr-owned by spammers?
2) What is the possibility of the IP being blacklisted by these servers forever? How long does it normally take for it to be totally in the clear?
3) What are the preventive measures that can avoid IP being listed?
4) Is configuring Reverse DNS PTR a standard procedure in server set-up and could missing that config be the main reason the IP got tagged?
we are having troubles with Spamhaus.
One of the motives they block us one of our blocks of 256 IPs is:
"190.183.63.103/32
Removed gigared.com.ar SR02
2008-12-01 03:28:01
SBL65412 mule spam dropbox"
What is "mule spam dropbox"?.
That IP is the main of a hosting server (100+ domains) from a client.
I am giving CSF a try and so far like what I see. I removed APF with the following commands:
rm -fv /etc/cron.daily/fw
chkconfig –del apf
rm -frv /etc/apf
But it appears that I still have 'symlinks' for the following in /usr/local/sbin:
apf -> /etc/apf/apf
fwmgr -> /etc/apf/apf
These two items are blinking. How can I safely remove them?
if your web host has some hardware ddos protection and i'm assuming it blocks the ip address/addresses of a DDOS attack, will it Unblock that ip address/addresses after a certain amount of time?
Because a person's computer may unknowingly be part of a botnet that does a ddos attack, and that innocent person won't be able to access the server if their ip address is not unblocked by the ddos hardware right?
I'm trying to delete a domain from my Plesk 8.2.0 panel, but whenever I try to delete it, I get the following error:

sappmng: Unable to getpwnam for user bollymayne

I've rebooted the server and Plesk and MySQL, yet I still seem to get the error. Any suggesstions?
is there a way to stop the quota.user files from being created? They're taking up a lot of diskspace.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo after the palaver yesterday, I managed to remove everything to a degree enough to reinstall Plesk. I'm still having quite a few issues but at least the websites are up and running again.
One of the more important ones is SSL certificates. Apparently they still exist somewhere, but they're not showing up in Plesk.
I tried doing /usr/local/psa/bin/certificate -l -domain <domain>, however that returns:
PHP Notice: Undefined index: CSR; File: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/api-common/cuCertificate.php, Line: 878
Error occured while sending feedback. HTTP code returned: 502

I found that in the Autoinstaller that there is an option to remove the Plesk Panel as a component. One of my customers ended up selecting this option and nuked all the psa functions. As you can imagine this was a nightmare for them since Plesk went away on them.
Is there a way to disable this feature either pre or post Plesk installation (or both) so future customers don't have this option? If there is a way to do this (and of course enabling it again if necessary)....
So per my other message [URL] .... we have four websites which we can't delete from PPA (Services/Websites doesn't have a way to do that) or from Hosting Panel (Webspaces says, "The selected webspaces were scheduled for removal," but they don't delete). In Hosting Panel, three have always shown as Failed and one as Pending.
The DNS zones can be deleted but they reappear if I "Apply DNS Template Changes" presumably because the websites are defined.
Someone brought to my attention something very interesting today: GNAX has a significant number of SpamHaus listings, many over a year old. There are also multiple ROSKO listings.

I have always heard generally good things about GNAX, so I wonder why they are dropping the ball here.
