Strange Kernel Messages In Shell

I am getting these strange messages in the shell.

Is this any issues with the current kernel that i am running. Do I need to change the kernel version ( 2.6.17.6 )

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?

I have just noticed that for several days I'm constantly receiving these infos in /var/log/messages. I haven't done anything that would invoke them. How can I disable these messages? Are they anything to worry about?

we have little problem on our server - from some time it starts reporting some errors:
kernel: spamd[6479]: segfault at 9a16000 ip 467840ac sp bffe9b5c error 6 in libc-2.5.so[46713000+13e000]
kernel: webalizer[12318]: segfault at 81a80cc ip 080d9279 sp bff2f230 error 4 in webalizer[8048000+b2000]
kernel: spamd[6515]: segfault at 9cbb000 ip 467840ac sp bffe9b5c error 6 in libc-2.5.so[46713000+13e000]
kernel: pure-quotacheck[16285]: segfault at bf3c9ff8 ip 46769d76 sp bf3c9fec error 6 in libc-2.5.so[46713000+13e000]
kernel: php[14910]: segfault at bf727da0 ip 080b0edc sp bf727d30 error 6 in php[8048000+64d000]
errors appear 2-3 times every 10min and always in this 4 programs: webalizer, php, spamd, pure-quotacheck
and second thing there is problem with some file caching or sth - for example when we restarts named it reports:
/etc/named.conf:23564: open: /var/named/slaves/slaves.named.conf: file not found
file of course exist but funniest thing is when we remove this line from named.conf and tries restart it, error appear again, even when this line is empty in named.conf and there is no other include of this file
even after server restart (without this include in named.conf) it still reports this error
server config: C2Q Q9550, 8GB ram, 2x500GB in hw Raid1, Centos 5.3 32bit, cPanel
maybe someone have any idea what it could be, and what else we can check ?

we have one box in hivelocity.net that has been down so many times this month that we were forced to remove links to siteuptime where we were once so proud of having a 99.7% uptime for 3 years in theplanet.
syslog shows that just before crashing, these entries were made:
kernel: kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:479
kernel: invalid operand:0000 [#1]
dmesg also shows this:
...
Brought up 2 CPUs
zapping low mappings.
checking if image is initramfs... it is
Freeing initrd memory: 482k freed
NET: Registered protocol family 16
PCI: PCI BIOS revision 2.10 entry at 0xf9f20, last bus=1
PCI: Using configuration type 1
mtrr: v2.0 (20020519)
mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings
mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs.
mtrr: corrected configuration.
...
i've googled these messages and they point to ram problems.
hivelocity.net claims to have done diagnostics on the box and that there were no problems reported.
they said this is a result of a sys configuration problem made by us.
any ideas?

running centos/virtuozzo 2.6.18-028stab062.3
when i configure vmware it asks at one point for kernel header files. where would i find them to match the current kernel?
i asked at parallels forums but help there is very scarce. i checked openVZ repositories and they dont yet have headers for this version.
what are my options? i have one last windows machine left and want to run it in VMware.

Last year I ordered a new server with Centos 4.3 and it had the kernel kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2ELsmp installed. It runned fine and I didn't update any packages since then.
Today I started getting a problem where both mysqld and kswapd0 uses very high amounts of CPU, spiking up to 100% and my memory usage is at 99% all the time. The problem seems exactly the same as the one mentioned in this thread.
In that thread the exact same kernel is said to be insecure and to cause this problem. I also came across a centOS bug that reports this problem with high cpu, mem usage and mysql & kswapd0 consuming all resources.
In the linked thread the person solved the problem by upgrading to kernel 2.6.9-42 using rpms but others recommended a newer kernel or a custom compiled kernel for CentOS.
Apparently when they used yum it said 34.0.2 was the latest kernel.
What should I do to upgrade the kernel, which version should i upgrade to, and where do I get it from? I won't be able to compile a custom kernel and I've only installed basic rpm packages before.

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 found a strange PHP file in a strange folder on a VPS I am using to host a few sites. I've looked through the logs but can't figure out how it got there and I've look at the code and can't make any sense of it. Can somebody take a look at the code and tell me what they think of it: .....

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.

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.

All accounst in my dedicated server start to show a very strange error_log with the following entries:
====
[04-Nov-2009 21:28:51] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/php_interbase.dll' - /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/php_interbase.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0 .....
====
Always when a php script is accessed, new entrie with this error above is created.
I dont understand because php script have not any relation with intebase or pgsql and my server have not this e db installed.

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:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
pipe to | /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/user/domains/dephnet.com/public_html/my/pipe/pipe.php
generated by info@domain.com
local delivery failed
The following text was generated during the delivery attempts:
------ pipe to | /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/user/domains/dephnet.com/public_html/my/pipe/pipe.php

Site error: the file <b>/home/user/domains/dephnet.com/public_html/my/pipe/pipe.php</b> requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_fre_5.2.so to be installed by the site administrator.
Now why would the script want ioncube_loader_fre_5.2.so when the site works fine?
The site can be found on [url]

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)"
74.249.4.234 - - [03/Jun/2008:18:12:37 -0500] "GET /scripts/overlib.js HTTP/1.1" 200 50733 "-" "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.

I use domain registration and Managed DNS records service from Directi.
I add A record hosting.mydomain.com to my Layeredtech server and NS records for its nameservers.
The layeredtech server is fine,all servics are up but my main site mydomain.com and hosting.mydomain.com are down.
All sites on server using ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com are unable to be accessed by majority of internet users.
Anyone got this bad experience before?

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 got a new server (Debian Etch) and experienced 2 strange server crashes during the last month.
When it happends, I can ping my server, but I can not login and all services are down.
After reboot log files doesn't show anything unusual.
There are only 2 small html sites on this server with 10-20 visitors per day.

Ever since today my server is being very strange... The server load is always around 6-10 and sometimes goes up to 16! It never did something like this before and I can't find any weird Apache behavior either. Though when I shut down Apache the server load drops to below 1 so it must be Apache...
