Warning: Fsockopen(): Unable To Connect To 127.0.0.1:25
Yesterday I had to install a renewed SSL Certificate. Managed to get it installed, in Plesk under domains/www_mydomain_com, but I also deleted the default SSL from the server/certificates area... So then I was getting an dns 500 error when browsingour site and I could not start httpd from within plesk. Went in through SSH and tried to start it from there and got and error stating it could not find the SSLCA cert it was looking for. So I edited my httpd.include file to point to my new certificate. Now http works, but my email has stopped? What gives how could the two be related!
I can log into my webmail, compose message and when I send I get:
Warning: fsockopen(): php_hostconnect: connect failed in /usr/share/psa-horde/pear/Net/Socket.php on line 108
Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to 127.0.0.1:25 in /usr/share/psa-horde/pear/Net/Socket.php on line 108
I have started and stopped psa, qmail. Rebooted the server. I tried the telnet localhost 25 but I get connection refused. Anytime I check qmail status it says stopped. Don't know if that is right or not. I know I am not recieving emails asI have sent many today through other accounts and they all come back undeliverable.
We do run an online store as well so I am kinda nervous when our email goes down! Time to hire a server admin?

UK Users Unable To Connect To One Of My Websites
I've been getting a lot of complaints today on my forum that users cannot view their websites which are subdomains on a seperate domain that I own. It makes no sense why they would have access to the forums which is on the same dedicated server, using the same IP, and with the same nameservers as the site they cannot access. This issue started last night out of nowhere. Where should I even start looking? It appears to only be with overseas users since none of the US and Canadian users have any issues with either domains or their subdomains.

Unable To Connect With Wireless Router
I have not been able to connect to my server via browser, ftp or email since my server had a OS reload & security package installed. If I disconnect and remove my wireless router I can access the server directly from the modem. When the Linksys WRT54G is connected I can go anywhere on the net with no problems, except my server. Is there something they might have done at the server to block wireless router access? I get a timed out message when I ping any of the IP's on the server with the wireless router connected. Linksys has been of no help and I have talked with Clearwire who owns my modem.

Unable To Connect Via SSH With Centos5 X64
I have been struggling with a couple of new servers that we want to run Centos 5 on. For a second assume that is our desire so going back to 4.x isn't an option yet. Now while I mention Centos 5, the problem seems to be with PAM and x64. When trying to login to the server via ssh, the login succeds but then immediately kicks the user out. I have tried this with root and another user created. I have set the UsePam option to no to try to resolve this in sshd_config. On the H-Sphere forum I found this reference: [url] " if i try to connect with ssh and i enter the right password i get an error and ssh closes the connection. The answer already was in the ticket you opened: Quote: That is known bug dealt with PAM authentication. The bug was fixed for i386 systems long time ago. But it was not fixed for x86_64 architecture. We build FreeVPS kernel new version 1.5-13.1 for x86_64 architecture to fix the problem. We also installed the kernel into the box IP 64.71.227.16. Please reboot the box with the new FreeVPS kernel version: 2.6.9-freevps-1.5-13.1smp. Let us know the result." Does anyone know how to resolve this? A reinstall of PAM was attempted by a well known sysadmin here but to no avail.

Unable To Connect To Local Httpd Server.
When i go to my website or any page under the domain it's just white. Blank nothing, nada. "Failed to receive status information from Apache. Unable to connect to local httpd server." This error message appears when i click on "apache status". Is this because of the network issue? Or is it because of something I did myself? I did a google search and came up on some solution, I did them and nothing.

127.0.0.1 Works But Not Localhost
I just installed wamp here on my laptop to set up a developer machine for my website. I am used to going into the browser and just typing in "localhost" and having it bring up the test website. I'm sure there is probably something wrong with the configuration of the wamp files because it works for 127.0.0.1.

Deny All Connections To Certain Port, Except For 127.0.0.1
I have problems configuring some ports and rules on CSF on a cPanel server. Port 37500 is used by a Java web app, so, i opened both tcp incoming and outgoing ports: Code: TCP_IN = "20,21,22,25,26,53,80,110,143,443,465,587,993,995,2082,2083,2086,2087,2095,2096,37500" TCP_OUT = "20,21,22,25,26,37,43,53,80,110,113,443,587,2087,2089,2703,37500" Then.. to allow access from the server IP and localhost, added this at csf.allow: Code: tcp:in:d=37500:s=127.0.0.1 tcp:in:d=37500:s=my.server.ip.address csf.ignore: Code: 127.0.0.1 my.server.ip.address And to deny all access to the server on that specific port (except for the ones I whitelisted before), added this to csf.deny: Code: tcp:in:d=37500:s=0.0.0.0/0 Result = no one can connect to the server on that port, not even from the web app itself, it's not connecting to the port 37500. How can I configure port 37500 to accept local connections (from the web server) and deny all external connections?

Warning. Hostgator
My opinion: Do NOT EVEN CONSIDER using HOSTGATOR. My experience: I signed up for their hosting on Sunday morning and completed payment for the first month using hostgators online payment system and paypal. The payment was accepted and confirmed. An email was sent some time later confirming the account had been set up. The email specified a user ID for cpanel as well as nameservers which I used to point two of my domains at the new hostgator account. I used cpanel and FTP to set up the add-on domain, create some email accounts and upload content for the two domains (the same content as on the old servers which should now be shown k-free.co.uk and offshoreharry.com). All appeared to work fine with no problems. I could use outlook to access email and the web sites were available on the new server (the old server was down). A day and a half later, I WAS HORRIFIED TO SEE - the emails accounts could not be accessed - the cpanel user did not work - Hostgator did not email me or attempt to contact me in any way to tell me there was an issue. (they had my valid mobile phone number - there are no unidentified calls in the period concerned). - the web sites that had been pointed at hoistgator were showing a suspended message and spammy hostgator context ads. My non-spam mostly non-ads content had been uploaded to the hostgator account. One of those domains is freeware software on a site with ZERO ADS that has never been moneterised and sometimes gets 100's of uniques a day. HOSTGATOR WAS STEALING TRAFFIC FROM MY ad free unmonetized site and showing a nasty spammy ad page. Not only was I rather angry but also amazed that any company would ever do this. Just think how you would feel if all your sites - pages were hijacked and showing some of the nasty ad pages. My opinion: Do NOT EVEN CONSIDER using HOSTGATOR. Checking my yahoo email, there was no email from hostgator saying my account had been suspended (if I hadn't checked it they would have continued stealing the traffic until I noticed). The only email from hostgator was a request for a copy of my passport or utility bill! I am left wondering if they are really a front for an identity theft scam? I am rather unhappy that they have even my name - address - tel no - paypal email. I obviously immediately changed the nameservers on the two domains back to the old servers. But since nameserver changes take upto 72 hours to fully propogator, hostgator could still be stealing some of my traffic now. The two sites contain nothing that any T+C I have ever seen would have any reason whatsoever to see as a problem. The two sites are k-free.co.uk and offshoreharry.com for anyone here who wishes to verify this claim. Hostgator COULD be showing my content instead of their spammy ads - I uploaded it. Hostgator was mentioned by a few on here and I thought them to be a big company who have a reputation to protect. Are you guys really comfortable with a company who behaves like this. Will they suddenly suspend your sites tomorrow and steal your traffic until you happen to notice? I have requested to them that they provide access TO MY PERSONAL AND BUSINESS EMAILS on the email accounts I set up. I would also like any log data that was collected. I will report back here what the response to that (politely worded) request is. Giving me access to any email and log data that they have effectively kidnapped-stolen hardly makes amends for the wrong they have already done. Like any other victim of a common thief I may just have to accept that I lost something and will not see it again. Additionally, search engine robots may have visited the sites and got 404s, any users who dropped by will certainly not be back, the damage caused is ongoing and difficult to fully quantify. Hostgator did not email me or attempt to contact me (they had my valid mobile phone number). They did not tell me why the account was suspended and the trafic STOLEN. I have had web sites for 4-5 years and have never been involved in anything remotely dubious on the web. You can judge for yourself if there is any reason for them to do this [sites offshoreharry.com, k-free.co.uk]. I had sent at most 10 emails whilst testing the 3 or 4 email accounts I was creating. Obviously I will never use hostgator or any related company. My opinion: Do NOT EVEN CONSIDER using HOSTGATOR ... EVER.

Netfirms Warning
I recently ran into some problems: - They doesn't support custom installation of PHPMyAdmin on their servers (You MUST use their own admin panel/pre-installed PMA or activate remote connexions) I'm not sure to understand why PMA doesn't work, but when you create a PHP Script, you must use "MYSQLHOST" as the server host, instead of the usual "localhost". I think that PMA doesn't use the mysql_connect way to connect to the database. So maybe they doesn't allow TCP or Socket connection. Anyway, that said, if you don't need a custom installation of PMA, you're OK for that point. - They doesn't support the PHP FreeTypeLib, if you plan to generate image with the GD lib and add some text into it, it may be hard to get a decent result. ( Here I'm thinking of anti-bot confirmation code ) - They doesn't offer any uptime guarantee, and they have no policy in case your server will encounter sporadic down time (just the one I used did for the past 2 weeks) ... And it would be so much a problem if they where offering a reliable service and/or if they where standing behind their costumers. For that, I've been a little deceived. { More about the down time experience: So we have contacted the support team, who said that the site is working well at the moment where we called. They doesn't seem to understand what an intermittent problem is. They said that, as they doesn't see the trouble at the time of the call, they canot do anything (I was expecting them to place an http probe/monitor or something) They asked us to take a screenshot of our browser next time that we encounter a down time. ( yes, I'm NOT kidding... a screenshot ! That's what I call technical support } I'm not ready to say that they are a bad hosting service, but, they are a little special as you see.

Warning About Universerve.Inc
This company has acquired a lot of smaller hosting companies over the last few years including budget only2dollars. Be warned they have ceased responding to support requests, none of the contact links work (even for sales) and they are not even responding to faxes. It is still possible to automatically purchase hosting via web forms of the companies they own. I could be wrong but it has all the hallmarks of a company in trouble and I would be very careful about purchasing any hosting with them until the situation becomes clearer.

HostGator Warning
It takes a lot to piss me off, and HostGator's done it. I opened an account with HostGator on behalf of a client of mine. Then the client decided he wanted to consolidate a few other web sites to the same server, so I opened a reseller account on HostGator and asked them to move the original account into the reseller account. My client got billed for both the original (empty) account and the reseller account. HostGator's sales account is refusing to refund my client the money for the original account saying that I neglected to fill out a "cancellation request" form. But, and perhaps this was silly of me, I assumed that when you move a hosting account into a reseller account, they'd close the original account. Or at least TELL you that you had to fill out a "cancellation request" form. They're referring to some paragraph in my original "contract" with them that mentions this cancellation request form. So, they may be technically right, but it seems to me that asking for an account to be moved into a reseller account would constitute a cancellation request. Now, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, and that I should have gone back to my original agreement with HostGator and noticed that I was obliged to fill out this cancellation request. Even so, I'm planning on canceling another account I have with them over this I'm so pissed. So by not refunding a lousy $14.95, they're losing a customer for life. Somehow that doesn't sound smart. And I'm so tired of dealing with stupid people or companies. I just won't do it. There are too many other web hosts out there for me to put up with this kind of attitude.

Warning 3ix
A while ago i had signed up with the affiliate program of 3ix.com webhosting. After a few months some commisiions had been confirmed insid their panel, when all of a sudden further access had been denied. Since two months they keep on mailing lies such as the affilate manager will respond, we are working on it etc. But now they no longer respond and it seems, that 3ix.com will be vanishing soon with more and more complaints arriving at the FBI internet fraud department. Certainly not a host, that deserves any trust.

Fasthosts: A Warning
At 6pm last night - more than 28 hours ago - my Dedicated Fasthosts server went down. It's still down. Despite more than 15 phone calls and several emails, they seem utterly incapable of fixing the problem. The system drive apparently failed and was replaced today with a new drive. I then rebuilt the Linux Fedora Core and Fasthosts proceeded to add the faulty drive to the server - at my request. However, after confirming that the drives had been installed and that the server was ready for use, guess what? It's still down. So not only do I currently not have a website, but my developer cannot access the failed drive in order to see what can be recovered. I'm at the point of telling Fasthosts to stick it, but I'm not going to do that because it's their responsibility to fix their hardware and provide the service I've been paying for since 2006. That being the case, can anyone recommend what steps I should take next in order to hold Fasthosts to account.

Justhost Warning
I would just like to give you a little warning about justhost.com. This is my experience, but I think I was just very unlucky. I signed up last Thursday, everything seemed to be great. When signing up it said that everything will be setup within 24 hours. The money was withdrawn and I got a confirmation email from paypal. After 30 hours I still haven't heard anything from the justhost. I checked a whois for the domain I had signed up for; it still wasn't registered. I chatted with one of their agents. I have mixed thoughts about the agents. They respond really quickly which is great, but they don't seem to have any privileges to do anything. They will only answer your questions and they will tell you who to email if something is needed to be done (from my experience). The agent said that I should email their billing section. So I emailed them, but I didn't get any response to that ticket. After 3 days I talked to an agent again. Same story; email billing. But they said everything will be setup within the next 24 hours. I emailed them again... After 4 days (still nothing had happened) I talked to an agent again. He said he can't find the information about me. So I patiently emailed them my info again. After 5 days I talk to an agent once again. I started asking why nothing has happened. After I started getting a little angry over the chat (because nothing was happening) he shut down the conversation. I then emailed their billing team to say I want a full refund. The refunding worked better than I would expect (since nothing had worked before). My money was refunded on paypal about 24 hours later. They apologized in the email and said that this is very unusual. I feel that it's very unprofessional to charge a customers credit card and then lose the information about the customer and not doing anything about it.

SOA Warning
dnsreport(.com) displays this warning for my domain: Quote: WARNING: Your SOA (Start of Authority) record states that your master (primary) name server is: server1.[domain].com.. However, that server is not listed at the parent servers as one of your NS records! This is legal, but you should be sure that you know what you are doing. Although I've created an SOA in my Windows DNS Console. Whats it then? Also, it says: Quote: ERROR: I couldn't find any MX records for [domain].com. If you want to receive E-mail on this domain, you should have MX record(s). Without any MX records, mailservers should attempt to deliver mail to the A record for [domain].com. I can't continue in a case like this, so I'm assuming you don't receive mail on this domain. Whereas I've already created an MX record - mail.[domain].com

Warning For Sysregistry.com
This morning I started my PC to find a little icon in the taskbar of my pc. It looked like a shield and showed a popup message with the contect "Your computer is infected Windows has detected spyware infection which corrupted the registry. It is recommended to load update to prevent data loss Windows will now download and install the most up-to-date software for you. Click here to protect your computer" Note that the text above was typed exactly as shown on the screen. The explanations within this registry cleaner from sysregistry.com contains broken english bits and peaces. So I did what probably most users do and clicked on it. The tool then downloads itself and starts up. Later when I looked at my C drive I found also other software that was downloaded (at the same time) twxi.exe qcfvf.exe dlkxp.exe jelwtpj.exe xvggujq.exe mbvesb.exe jrobixo.exe The software would redirect you to the homepage at sysregistry.com where you can conviniently pay with your CC card. ;-) First of all I dont recall having personally invited this peace of software to sit down on my pc, so I certainly didnt feel like inputting my cc details on their homepage. What I did is try some free or shareware tools that took care of that problem. I wanted to research more, but the Whois DNS doesnt seem to work right now.

What Do These Warning Emails Mean
I have a site hosted on a vds with Godaddy. For the past couple of months, every single day I get at least 12 emails coming though with the subject title - 'Status warning from ip-218-119-109-95.ip.secureserver.net' each email reads something as follows - System integrity monitor on ip-218-119-109-95.ip.secureserver.net has taken action in responce to an event. Recent event logs are enclosed below for your inspection. There has been 10 events today, if an average of 8 events is reached, e-mail alerts will be terminated for the duration of the day. > > - Events Summary: > Total event count: 10 > Average event count: 3 > > - Service Summary: > HTTP [restarted - 8 events] > DNS [online - 1 events] > MYSQL [online - 1 events] > > - System Summary: > No system modules enabled - edit conf.sim > Can anyone tell me what on earth these emails mean? I don't get much sense out of Godaddy when I ask, they just state it is a monitoring system in place. I really would like to know what all these emails refer to? is it a regular happening, or something to be worried about, or what the heck do they mean? Would really appreciate if you don't be too technical in your answer as I'm not too familiar with a lot of hosting issues. (Also please note I have altered the ip address in the email details for privacy reasons). Basically all i want to know is this something I should be worried about?

Warning: Bandwidth Over Usage ...
Do you get a warning mail before you are about to cross your bundled data transfer limit? I read in some post that it is user's responsibility to monitor bandwidth usage... But i think client has the right to know before he is about to consume his bandwidth limit... probably alerts like.. you have consumed 80%/90%/95%/98%/99% of ur bandwidth limit.. Isn't it fair to expect this?

Why Do I Get An Open Relay Warning
I ran my mail server through an SMTP diagnostic tool at: And the one warning it gave was "WARNING! Your server could be an open relay." This was for an out-of-the-box cpanel/exim configuration on a dedicated server. Can someone help me understand how this warning is detected/tested for, and what I can do to resolve it? My understanding was that cpanel will not set up an open relay by default?

Fasthosts.co.uk Rip Off Warning
I ordered a server from fasthosts.co.uk in May after speaking to their sales over the phone. Once I had worked out that it was something that we could try I said that’s fine I will order it online. NO NO I was told I can order it for you here and set everything up for you. Great... I gave the girl I think her name was Flik or Flic from fasthosts all my details and she set everything up in a few hours. GREAT Now here is the bad part... Tried to cancel the server and have been told that it's a minimum term of 12 month. I have also been charged since then another £79.00. Called my credit card company to try and stop the transactions for now as you can't delete the details on the fasthost control panel. I have email support so many times and also spoken to them on the phone. I have tried to speak to other managers but they keep saying that there is no ones available to talk to. My main post is I was not told that this was a minimum of 12 months and would have never agreed to this. I did check when you sign up online and they do place the T&C's deep in their small print. I now know why the girl from Fasthosts wanted to take the order over the phone. Here is my letter I send to them. Next step is ofcom but if you have any ideas please let me know. Dear Fast Hosts I am writing to you in regards to a server that I ordered over the phone with one of your sales people in April. As I recall her name was Flick and her contact number is 01452 561831. I ordered this server to use as a back up for some of our company files and discussed this with your sales staff. We agreed that getting a Windows server was the best option for what we needed and the server was ordered over the phone. We were not too sure if the server was what we needed but we thought that we would give it a go and see. After a week or so I released that we didn’t really need the server as we could use our public folders with the exchange email service that we have with you and if we ran out of space I could always buy some more. I sent an email to you on 30th May requesting cancellation and received an email back 2 days later advising me that it was a minimum one year’s contact. I have since sent several emails to your support and sales explaining that I was never told that this was a year contact as I ordered on the phone. I was not even told the price. It's simple... How can I agree to those terms and conditions when I was not made aware of them? I would have never agreed or signed up for a year's contract. I have not used this server and only wanted to try it out. When I ordered over the phone I was never told that it was for a year. Your calls must be recorded and you can check. I am a consultant for a large mobile operators call centre in ******* and this is poor service. Please cancel this server and review your sales policies as they are against trading standards. I also notified you about the cancellation on 30th May and was charged for another month on 4th June. Please arrange a refund for that month to avoid charge back. I am happy to pay the first months payment. I have other services with Fast Host that I have had for several years. We are a web company and do recommend Fasthosts for UK hosting as we have had a great experience with you in the past. The credit can be applied to our exchange hosting account domain gsynetwork.com and I believe that the username is ******** Regards This is the type of reply you get back…… What a joke…… Further to your mail , All of our servers are subject to a 12 month minimum term , part of using this server is the acceptance of the terms of service which we operate subject to the normal cooling off periods associated with purchasing products and services over the phone or online. As you have gone beyond this period I cannot authorise the removal of this machine from contract.

Warning: CheapVPS.co.uk Suspend Me
I purchased a second VPS with cheapvps.co.uk for £31.73 (including managed service). I bought the 2nd vps, because my first one crashed for some reason. After 7 days of misconfigured 2 vps systems I asked for a complete and full working VPS or a refund and they suspend me on all 2 systems without getting a refund. That is not nice. Edit: I got a refund, today but only 11.73 of 31.73, because DirectAdmin will be cost now $20 instead of $10, if it is an refund issue. One really bad part of the TOS, if you want to get a refund (Note, that they it will cost you only 5 pounds, while purchase a VPS, but they double the pricing, if you ask for a refund!): The 7 day money back is offered on all managed and semi-managed VPS accounts. The money back does not cover unmanaged VPS. Control panel fees will not be refunded. cPanel and DirectAdmin are valued at $20/mo with a $20 setup. RVSkins and Fantastico are counted as control panels and have an associated cost of $2 each should they be active on your account.

I went under edit a dns zone and viewed the DNS of some of my domains and some of them have DNS I have not added before. This is also happening when I create new accounts on Cpanel. for example, on one of the domains I added, it shows the DNS as "ns45.domaincontrol.com" under edit a DNS zone. These are not my DNS servers nor did I add those. What would be causing this? Also getting this error when I try to change anything.

Warning: Avoid Amerihost.com
So I've had a VPS with Amerihost for a while. I found a better deal, here actually, for a real server. I migrated my accounts and submitted my cancellation to Amerihost.com on April 30th. My account was set to bill on the 11th of May, so I wanted to make sure I didn't bill again. Here is the first cancel ticket: April 28th: [SUPPORT #XRQ-191822]: Support Request [url] Appears to have been deleted. Here is another ticket I submitted after the first was ignored: April 30th: [BILLING #IBJ-172957]: 2nd Request: Cancel my account I had a conversation with them on this one making it QUITE clear I wanted to cancel, immediately. 8 parts, all still in my GMail account. Then I get this a few days ago: Dear xxxxx, This is a notice that an invoice has been generated on 05/16/2008. Your payment method is: Credit Card Invoice #913 Amount Due: $45.00 USD Due Date: 05/17/2008 Obviously, they never cancelled the account. I open yet another ticket, telling them to cancel and threatening chargeback: May 15th: [BILLING #SGJ-247744]: Re: Customer Invoice Also appears to have been deleted. Now I got this: Dear Brian Teeter, This is a payment receipt for Invoice 913 generated on 05/16/2008. The payment has been taken from your card on record with us automatically. Amount: $45.00 USD Status: Paid So, basically they ignored my repeated, multiple requests for cancel. Even after I talked with one of them. They still charged my card. Avoid these jokers at all costs. I'm going to the bank tomorrow and I will be getting the charges reversed.

I no my bank doe's not ever do this so I contacted them.

So before you hand over your bank account details to them I highly recommend that think twice.
