Strange Http Query Attack
Apr 9, 2009
I have a problem since yesterday in one of my servers, Im receiving between 200 and 300 hits by second from different IPs to a non existent path in a site, the hits are going to different cracks, films and download query's, this site is a directory and its not a warez or p2p site.
The site is onemilliondirectory.com, and I have suspended it because it was using a lot of resources of the first server, now its being redirected to other location, I have placed some traffic trackers to determine the referer or any other usefull info about the visitors, but the referer is always empty and I think that they are fake users because the statcounter tracker do not recognize the visits.
For example, some of the hits are:
Code:
GET /suspended.page/?v=ABC%204%20KIDS%20Workshop%201.0.zip HTTP
GET /suspended.page/?v=DecryptSQL%202.8.zip HTTP/1.1
GET /suspended.page/?v=[0]%20Msn%20Live%20Messenger%20Mobile.zip
GET /inactive.html?v=Able%20Photo%20Slide%20Show%202.2.5.5.zip
GET /suspended.page/?v=English%20Grammar%20Worksheet%201.4.zip
GET /inactive.html?v=Karaoke%205%2030.zip HTTP/1.1
GET /suspended.page/?v=Nero%208%208.3.2.1.zip HTTP/1.1
Detail of one of the visits from the cpanel latest visitors tool:
Code:
Host: 82.246.88.241
/inactive.html?a=Knowing.2009.TS.FRENCH.XVID-PaGlop.****.[emule-island.com].avi
Http Code: 200 Date: Apr 07 16:39:54 Http Version: HTTP/1.1 Size in Bytes: 262

Does anyone know how to redirect the URL of a host so that it always goes to the www subdomain? Is this done with RedirectMatch or is a rewrite rule?

where when I view my website through http using Firefox, it never stops loading. If I use IE, then I get a "page can not be displayed" error.
If I use https then everything works fine.
I have noticed that if I delete lines from the files, I don't have this problem.
If I try viewing images (so I know it can't be an html of php problem) some look fine (the very small files). But, larger files, around 168 kb, load halfway and the second half is distorted (green and purple chunks and other random colors and lines).
If I view the image through https, the image is perfectly fine!
If I put my site through w3.org's validator (just to see what it would report) it says "500 Line too long (limit is 4096)".
My website used to work, so I know there isn't any code in the pages that would cause this to happen.
Is there an Apache setting I check? Perhaps it is sending a really long header that I can not see? I am not really sure what to do. I have made my site to force https but it's slow and not signed.

I don't quite know what to make of this, but I am getting hits to my search pages with the following:
/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Hello%21%20Perfect%20and%20
/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Hi%21%20Good%20site%20respe
There are multiple occurrences of this at any one time, and the interesting thing is that it appears to be spoofing the source IP addresses - most are all different with few exceptions.
Has anyone else seen this and know of a solution? Normally I would simply use IP deny but given the addresses appear to be spoofed and too numerous it would be futile.. I thought if I programmed OSC to quit if it matched the keywords might be a decent solution, but so far I haven't had any luck
I searched google and this forum to see if I could find out anything with no luck at all, so I'm guessing this
is fairly new.

I run a small Fan community / forum that I am looking to move to a VPS server as these are a little cheaper than Dedicated
I have a couple of questions & wondered if anyone could assist?
I need a Control panel as I have had experience with Plesk & Cpanel & do not have any SSH experience whatsoever
I see Cpanel offered in some VPS offers, Would this include things like Fantastico etc?
Would I better suited to a Managed or Unmanaged account? I assume seeing I have no SSH knowledge Managed account would be better
I had looked at a site called nameway dot com & like the look of their VPS offer but would love to hear other peoples thoughts on them (I haven't posted enough to post a url so site is
www dot nameway dot com/resellers-hosting.htm )
If I were to go unamanaged or part managed if there is such a thing, would this mean I would have to upload things like apache for php, mysql etc? or would this still be standard in an unmanaged account if a cpanel or control panel is offered?

check the dns settings on my server?
I have a feeling there's something not quite right with it
I ran DNSreport.com's query and it said there were a few problems which might cause slowdowns (Which is what i'm experiencing), but didn't go into any detail on how to fix it
They've now put in a fee for doing anymore dns checks, so i'm abit in the dark as to what to do?
I'm running a WHM/Cpanel VPS at present.

This month I just pruchase dedicated server, spec are AMD X2 with 1GB RAM.
On ssh, the memory result is:
root@server1 [~]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 883 836 47 0 163 397
-/+ buffers/cache: 275 608
Swap: 2047 0 2047
My question:
1. Why the total ram just 883MB? I think it should 1024Mb?
2. The server still empty, but why I see the total used memory is 836Mb?
I only have experience with cpanel vps and when my server empty it only use around 200MB RAM and around 400MB ram usage when my vps load with 30+ account.

A couple of days ago I came across www.just-ping.com site (it's a simple ping test site).
I tested my site avensen.com (IP: 72.232.147.154) with it, and got bad results like this one:

I'm trying to figure out if this is a network problem or a problem with my server. I don't get it, because there are no lost ICMP packets when I ping another hosts from my server, or when I ping my server from home PC.
And here is what server4sale support wrote:
Quote:
This is what we received from data center and will update you, when they get back to us.
"We apologize for the delay in responding to you. We are aware of an issue that involves our upstream provider, and we have opened a ticket with them to get the issue resolved ASAP.

Second message from support:

The data center has informed that they have not yet received an update from their upstream provider as they used to inform them after performing changes.
However, for better investigation and providing the results more precisely to their upstream provider they have asked you to provide the latest:

1) 300 ping results from your PC to server
2) Traceroute from your PC to Server and
3) Traceroute from Server to your PC
I'd really appreciate if you help me to get these results and isolate the problem.
IP of my server: 72.232.147.154
What's even stranger is that when I run a just-ping.com test over 72.232.147.174 IP (a machine in the same SAVVIS data center, I guess), I get "All OK results":

Am just about to emigrate to USA (yay) and I want to keep my xxxxxxxx.co.uk domain active so I can recieve emails etc. I would also like to register a yyyyyyyyy.com domain.
Can anyone advise me on this please?
Can I host a .co.uk in the US?
Can I host a different .com and .co.uk on the same servers?
Can anyone recommend a good reliable, cheapish ($10-$20per month) host that provide MSSQL and asp.net 2.0 support.

I have a dedicated server with the 'typical' 2 ips pointing to the same instance of BIND on it for its nameservers.
I would like to actually have an ns2 to remove this single point of failure. Even though my 'infrastructure,' such as it is, is only a single server; my research on here and elsewhere suggests that this separate DNS server will make my site appear to be non-responsive when the server is down rather than simply non-existent. This is the behavior I would like to have!
I am still left with questions on implementing this. I know I need either a small VPS account, or an account with a provider such as DNSMadeEasy.com. What is not clear to me is how I would set up such an arrangement with the separate DNS server.
Does anyone have a link to a resource that shows how to do this, or would be willing to do a quick run through here?
I am not technically incompetent but am unfamiliar with this procedure and cannot seem to find documentation.

I've got a VPS, and its performance sucks.
I've got 18 domains parked on it, with only 4 of those having active websites. There are 3 mailman lists set up, and a further 10 or so email accounts with SpamAssassin active on them.
It also runs cPanel/WHM.
The server itself has 384Mb RAM, with 512Mb burst.
My beancounters are.....

I been logging queries for a whole 3 days and my logs is huge and the problem seems to be my phpBB search table thats causing such problems for me heres what I logged
Code:
# Time: 070219 19:41:53
# User@Host: admin_db[admin_db] @ localhost []
# Query_time: 11 Lock_time: 0 Rows_sent: 0 Rows_examined: 13274745
SELECT word_id
FROM phpbb_search_wordmatch
GROUP BY word_id
HAVING COUNT(word_id) > 259756;
Everything from phpbb_search_wordmatch takes more then 11 sec Query time.
How can I optimze this and lower the Query time to something like 1 or 2.
Some adivce would be helpful me not that good with mysql.

I currently have my jimpix site hosted by a really good Canadian company called Alentus. BUT, they are based in Canada, and I'm based in the UK.
I am working on a site at the moment which will require a timetable / scheduling facility, so working in the 7 hour time difference between the UK and Canada is a pain.
The package I need is:
ASP Hosting
MySQL Hosting
Use of ASPJPeg and ASPUpload Components
I've not been able to find a UK hosting firm offering these - or haven't spent hours looking for one, so wanted to check here if anyone could recommend a UK firm offering these - and a good one if possible! I have used other hosts before with other web clients, and some have been pretty ropey to say the least!

I’m running RHEL 3, Apache and Cpanel. When I ran: "netstat –an" I found this in the results:
tcp 0 0 11.11.111.229:49158 11.11.111.229:80 ESTABLISHED
tcp 0 0 11.11.111.229:49578 11.11.111.229:80 ESTABLISHED
If I’m reading this right these two unprivileged ports are open and talking to my privileged http port 80. Does this seem right? Why would these two ports on my machine have a connection. All this attention was sparked by abnormal spikes in load. Now I’m getting paranoid that something may be off even though I’m clean when scanning for rootkits etc…

I'm very new to dedicated hosting, but not to server admin in general, and have come across what seems to be to be a problem.
I'm based in the UK, and the dedi I went with is in the US, i have several VPS in the US, and I can download to them pretty consistently from a UK based server at around 5MB/s... this is on a VPS.
The dedi I signed up to lease has a 100Mb card, and a fairly well known provider, and yet the connection I get to the UK is terrible. It fluctuates wildly between 200KB/s and 5MB/s, seemingly at random, for example, downloading a 100MB file, i'll start at 500KB/s initally, and within a few seconds it might be 3.5MB/s, this could then go either way, but i'll usually end up with an average of about 800KB/s - which really seems awfully slow.
The traceroutes appear fine, there's around 110ms on ping and that is consistant, and similar to the figure the VPS get.
I've been in touch with their support, and after trying the usual suspects - including swapping the NIC - they lost interest. I was actually very impressed with them up until this point so feel pretty let down.
Is this normal? I've honestly never seen a download vary so wildly in speed. Unfortunately i'm tied in on a 3 month contract otherwise i'd drop them in a heartbeat right now.

Always when a php script is accessed, new entrie with this error above is created.

I've got a few machines where Apache acts really strange and curious if anyone has any suggestions. I'd love to figure this out so it can actually be deployed to a larger amount of machines and not just test instances.
- Basic Information
Apache 2.2.8 (Tried a few 2.2 versions)
PHP 5.2.6
suPHP based
Prefork Based
- Once a day at a random time Apache fails a request from remote monitoring. It comes back within a minute however is is inaccessible for that time. It sometimes gets picked up by 5 minute monitoring on the machine itself and it restarts the service obviously.
- PHP scripts fail to be killed at times resulting in memory being used. They need to be killed in order to go away.
Worker Based
- Apache can stay up forever it does not fail any requests
- PHP scripts do not get killed at a more frequent basis than in prefork. You need to `kill -9 pid` in order to get rid of the php processes.
I read about very few issues with 2.2 so I'm quite confused by this.

I have an issue I've never seen before, and hope someone here can shed some light on this odd problem.
Just brought a new server online running Apache 2.2.3. The DocumentRoot was originally set to /var/www/html but I changed it to /home/[sitename]/public_html. I've done hundreds of Apache configs before and this one is no different.
Anyhow, here's the issue:
In SSH (logged in as root), if I create a file (let's just say I do a vi index2.php, enter "test" and save), when I try to go to pull the file in my browser, I get a 403 permission denied error. However, if I create the file in /var/www/html then move it to /home/[sitename]/public_html, the file comes up fine in a browser. Same goes for JPEG images. If I wget a JPG from another site directly into /home/[sitename]/public_html, get a 403 permission denied. If I wget it into /var/www/html then move it, it loads just fine.
It's important to note that the file permissions, owner, and the actual file itself are all identical. Both directories are chowned and chmodded identically.

I run WHMCS as my billing system for my company and everything is working fine, except piping emails to WHMCS.
The people I am hosting WHMCS with are running PHP 4.4.8 and so I have the loaders for 4.4 uploaded to my account. When I try to send an email to an address that is set to pipe to WHMCS I recieve the following:

Lately we have been getting log entries similar to the following from different IPs all over the US:
74.249.4.234 - - [03/Jun/2008:18:12:36 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 6205 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1;1813)"
74.249.4.234 - - [03/Jun/2008:18:12:37 -0500] "GET /scripts/javascript.js HTTP/1.1" 200 9153 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1;1813)"

That is all there is to each hit.
Obviously, the default index.php file is being loaded and is calling the javascript files, but what we can't understand is why the CSS files and images are not being downloaded as well.
Any ideas on why this would be occurring?
Caching and text based browsing are unlikely scenarios due to the quantity and varied locations of the IPs.

I have one server with multiple websites hosted on it. It's powered with Cpanel / WHM.
When I run the command 'wget mydomain.com' from this server, I download a Cpanel / WHM landing page instead of the actual homepage from mydomain.com.
I can successfully load mydomain.com in a browser. I can also run the 'wget' command from my local computer and download the correct homepage.
When I run this command from the server mydomain.com is hosted on, Apache returns the home page for the default virtual host for my IP address (ie. cpanel landing page). I encounter this same problem when using CURL or PHP Sockets.
I am behind a firewall. Could this be causing the issue? Does anyone have any ideas how I could fix this?
This is a big problem as I have websites that need to use a web service from a domain hosted on the same machine.

Anyone is an expert for apf firewall here? I check my apf_log and saw it was automatically restarted every 12 hours. This is strange because the developer mode was disabled, and usually developer mode was only for 5 minutes and not for 12 hours.
Yes, the apf was restarted and function, but it's strange to see it restarted every 12 hours.

Using FreeBSD 6. These 2 lines in /etc/rc.conf resulted in not able to boot:
firewall_enable="NO"
firewall_logging="YES"
The second rule had to be comment out otherwise it wouldn't boot. I started with "firewall_enable="NO"" because I locked myself out for other reasons, so I wanted to try it step by step this time.
Is the rule wrong or is logging without an enabled firewall the problem?

I have a pretty active phpBB forum. I was looking at my stats today and I notice some strange referrals. I checked it out and it and it is a bunch of spam sites. But with a link to one of my threads in the bottom (different per spam site).
- The spam sites have nothing related to my content
- The link to the threads in my forum has no relation to each other.
- Out of all the sites to put, why mine? My forum is not a very very popular forum.
I can post the link if it will better understand the above situation.
I just like to know why and what purpose does it serve? Also is it bad for me? As it is a spam site is linking to my forum. I dunno if search engines will think my site is a spam site as well.

Users of my web site, running MD-Pro, a PostNuke (php-based) clone, suddenly started to report difficulties downloading files from the download module. We assumed it was the download module and spent ages diagnosing it, uploading fresh versions etc. After some time someone had the bright idea to see if the files could be downloaded direct (using the URLs) to eliminate the web application.
We found: Some users can download all files from the server with no problems.
Some users can download some files but not others.
So far as we can tell only MS Word files are affected, but not all.
The files on the server are not corrupted and there are no permissions issues
Disabling antivirus and firewalls locally makes no difference.
REloading fresh originals to the servedr does not help.
The host reports that no changes to the server have been made recently.
We have discovered that files in the web root are OK. The furhte down the directory structure they are, the less likely they are to download. Performance varies according to the browser in use. According to the host technical support, 'Firefox appears to be returning the data from its own cache. IE is only doing so for root. For the other places IE tries to download the file but stops receiving at exactly the same number of bytes from different locations.'
Using another server on a different host, the problem disappears so it must be due to the host setup in some way. Diagnosis is difficult because the host technical support can't reproduce it.
Platforms include Mac, Windows and Linux and browsers include IE7, Firefox and Safari.
One user with Mac isn't having problems, another with Mac is. All others reporting problems are on Windows. Users are at different locations, using different ISPs so it is unlikely there are common local problems.
The only common element I can see is that the ony files causing trouble are MS Word, though some of these do download OK
We have run out of ideas why this should be happening. How can some users have problems with the same files on the same server and others not?
What could have happened to cause this problem on a site that has been functioning correctly for several months on this server?

I see over a few hundred of these lines in /var/log/messages. The timestamp is exactly the same for every 2 lines (Proftp session- Opened and Closed). It's occuring every hour of the day. Is someone attacking the ftp daemon or something?
