Weird SQL Files Have Filled My TMP Folder
Apr 1, 2008
There have been no changes made to any sites on my server for which I can pinpoint to be the cause of this problem...
Basically, I received notice that my TMP folder was full at 100%... so a look into what the heck was taking up all the space reveals several weird .MYI and .MYD files for which I have no idea about.
I cannot open them or view any of their contents. I cannot even edit them.
Does anyone have any information about what these are or why they are in my TMP folder?

I have two servers.
One server has a folder named 'vidfiles' and I want to transfer this entire folder (all 70gigs) to another server I just got.
Both servers are linux and use CPanal/whm.
What would be the command to get the files to transfer direct from server to server?

My web host sets up public_html for http and public_ssl for https traffic.
So, if I want my whole site to be secure, I place everything in public_ssl.
However, I am using a shopping cart system inside a CMS.
I want only certain parts to be secure - e.g. the last stage of the checkout procedure.
At the moment, I can only achieve this by having two copies of the CMS/shopping cart, one in public_html and one in public_ssl.
Whilst this approach works (at least from the shopper's point of view), there are lots of problems from a content management point of view.
My host is of the opinion that "this is the only way it can be done".
Is it possible to enable ssl on public_html, have a single copy of the cms there, and then switch between secure and non-secure mode as needed?
If this is possible, can you provide me with a technical description of the setup that I can pass on to my host?

I paid a programmer to make me a custom image script. Everything works perfect... the only problem is that all images are being stored in the same folder, will that make my server too slow? we are talking about thousands of images

OS: CentOS 5.1 32 bit fully updated.
I'm trying to tar a folder that has 100's of thousands of files and I ensured that no files are being added or modified in that folder while the below command is being executed:
nice --adjustment=20 tar -cf users_from.tar users_from
I've tried it multiple times and it always stops before it finishes and ends up with a corrupted .tar file which gives errors when extracted and is obviously missing a lot of files. Sometimes it creates 200+ MB, sometimes 50 MB before it stops.
I also have enough RAM + swap for the operation so that can't be the cause.
So is it just impossible to tar a directory with so many files and is it even possible to get a list of the files in that directory?

I am having trouble with moving my files to another server.
i have 1 servers, 1 hosting account (no ssh), both are using different control panel and i need to move all of the media files(movies) in the hosintg account to other server since hosting account contract will expire soon.
So, i am thinking of using FTP to transfer multiple files using mget command for FTP. But the thing is i will need to be there any press enter( to accept download) for every single files to be download. Which is very time consuming since i have hundred of files to move.
So my question is:
1/ is there a better way to move files in this situation?
2/ or Is there a shell script that i can use to download all of the file to my server without pressing enter accepting every single file?

Every week or so, my whitelist in ASSP is getting filled up with @*.de email addresses. Coincidentally, at that same time, I start receiving massive amounts of spam because those addresses are whitelisted.
Has anyone ever had this happen to them? The list of addresses is the same every time it happens, but it really worries me that somehow my whitelist is getting modified without my permission. The assp web interface is disabled (blocked at the firewall) because I update the configuration by just editing the files. SSH access is completely disabled, save for key authentication...So my thoughts are that somehow, an external address is able to modify my whitelist...somehow.
Does anyone have any thoughts or troubleshooting ideas for me?

Here my plesk installation details:
Debian 6.0.9 x64
12.0.18 at #17
the problem is very big since backup procedure not backup all files and folder. I have a lot of Wordpress installations (some of that made with App Installer and others made by hand).
Into all the above installations, files and folder created by Wordpress, like plugin installed or image, uploaded are not backup!
I have seen that all this files come with www-data:www-data user and group but with read permissions for owner, group and others, so i not able to understand why they are not inside my backups. If i change user and group all works fine.
Check your Wordpress backup and verify the presence of plugin and images (miniature of images are still present since they are created with different user and group)...

I had a Problem with my FTP-Backup space, so PLESK couldn't do the daily backups that I configured. The problem with the ftp backup is solved. The backups are running again but there are still many large temporary files in a plesk folder.
Can I just delete them, or is this a bad idea?
The folder:
C:Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskPrivateTemp

On my VPS I would like to set the /tmp folder to 777 and point to it with session.save_path.
The VPS will host a number of sites, but I will have sole control of them. ie. the account holders will not have access to cpanel.
If it makes any difference, the server is running phpSUexec.
What are the risks involved with this?

I've got a vB site which has a RSS Poster Bot (fetches RSS Feeds then posts them). However, for some strange reason, it stopped working. Theres no errors in the error_log and when I do a manual run, it just times out after a minute or so.
The only thing I can think of is that one of the RSS Feeds is down or one of the sites is blocking the server IP for some reason.

i have this really annoying issue i'm hoping you can help with.
it seems the spamd child process gets stuck and causes 100% cpu usage. but this doens't just happen randomly, its only for this single user account. e.g. take a look at top output:
4581 <username> 93 40:58.87 1.3 82624 52m 2280 R spamd child
the 93 is 93% cpu usage. 40:58 is how long the process has been running, 40 minutes and counting (i just killed it though). and all it tells me its running spamd child. it usually dies after a few hours but only after causing 200% cpu usage (100% on both cpus) and making my server load skyrocket. This happens at least twice daily at no set times.
this user isn't a spammer. no scripts, no mail queue generation, no email accounts even.
running cpanel 11, centos 4.

I have a weird problem since the movement of our ip range with one of our servers. Bind doesn`t seem to react on any changes we make.
For example, the server still resolves to the old ip adress while we changed all of those with ipswap.sh (directadmin)
The weird thing is that all zone files are 100% Correct. Ip`s are all changed and no sign of the old ip whatsoever.
Again, the nameserver still resolves to the old ip`s.
Also when i create a new domain, named.conf is changed and the zone file is created sucessfully. Still the nameserver doesn`t seem to add the domain name.
Restarting, reloading and even reinstalling named doesn`t help

I'm seeing weird characters on my support home page:
That's found right below "Home > Support"
The source code shows the following...
Quote:
<tr>
<td style="padding:0px"><p>Welcome to our Support Area.</p>
I've checked the two template files (header.tpl and homepage.tpl) but did not find such characters. Its boggling me. Not even whitespace.

Got a couple of questions on my Centos server.
It is my only (at present), and main production web server located in a datacentre in the Uk.
I am running Centos 4-4.2 since a hardware failure earlier this year neccesitated a stressful overnight ssh reinstall.
I have it setup pretty well now (I think!) but I cant work out how I am able to sftp into the server!
Reason being, I have installed VSFTPD (made sure there were no ftpd daemons installed or running), and when I stop this service via sshd, it does not affect the fact that I can then sftp in to the server using an ftp client such as wsftp pro...
Also, even when I change the vsftpd.conf to jail certain ftp users to a directory, it seems to have no effect and ftp works exactly as it did before without imposing the restrictions?
There is no other ftp daemon showing up in the process list.
I have tripwire installed, rootkit hunter, and cisco hardware firewall in conjunciton with ip tables.
I dont 'think' its hacked!
Also, the last time I upgraded centos was from an early v4 to 4.4.2 due to major hardware failure on the server and the fact I didnt have a mirrored OS/server backup (due to cost) *but I did of course have all my sites and databases etc)
I am rather scared to upgrade Centos kernel to the latest version in part due to horror stories I have heard from others (NOT regarding Centos specifically) from kernel upgrades going wrong or compatibility issues etc that mean that I am very very reluctant to do it on our main production server..
I am imminently buying another server to act as a failover and backup for the existing one,but is keeping my current Centos install as it is and holding out to wait for a test server the best thing to do? (are there any serious security issues in 4.4.2? bugs etc?)
Or should I have confidence and get Yum to do its business!

This is a very weird network issue that we are currently facing.
There are 2 servers, 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2;
I can ping both IPs from my computer at the office or from anywhere else.
BUT, I cannot ping each other. For example, I log into 1.1.1.1 and cannot ping 2.2.2.2 and vice-versa.
This is very weird and I am thinking this is not OS related and something beyond that.
I was wondering if anyone of you came across this type of issue and possible direct us in the right direction.

On one of my Web sites I have it set to e-mail me whenever someone tries a SQL Injection attempt through the GET.
(I find some of the results interesting and/or funny.)
I also have it e-mail me the visitor's IP address and browser client.
I recently got one with a result for the IP address that certainly got my interest.
It read:
Quote:
<?php phpinfo(); echo "LOOOOL, X-FORWERD BUG"; ?>
The PHP scripting I use to get the IP address is:
Code:
$visIP = isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] : $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
I guess I'm wondering how they may have done it, and if this indicates an issues where people can hack my site (for control or at least info) through this method?

We have a license application client(IBM/LUM) that connects to a license server outside our network.
The clients works this way... it binds a random port and tries to connect to the remote IP with UDP port 1515.
Through wireshark I could see that it reaches the destionation, although the way back is unreachable.
If I add this random port to our router Port Forward rule, it works perfectly. Although this is not a solution cause the port is changing every time.
Isnt this strange? Other applications open random ports as well and comunication is two-way reachable.
If I connect directly to the internet, it works perfectly as well.
What can I try to do with our ZyWall USG300 Router to fix this situation?

I've a few similar video sites and haven't noticed much difference over the years with their stats. They usually average anywhere from 50-100mb downloaded per day.
Suddenly this month, one site is practically going off the scale...600-700mb...up to 1gb downloaded per day...I'm like...wtf?! The other site is reporting normal BW.
I'm using awstats with hotlink protection enabled.
Is something or someone draining my bandwidth?

I have compiled a RT kernel using 2.6.24 and it has been working great. All of our machines are runnin Centos 5. No issues like the previous configurations on Dual Quad Xeons 5335's and 8GB of RAM. As well as one box with Dual Core Xeon 5140's with 4GB of RAM. They have identical motherboards. My issue is that when you do a soft reboot, it doesn't "technically" reboot. It does, but it doesn't. Let me explain. It kills my ssh connection and you can't ping it for maybe say a minute or 2. When it comes back up, you get a new SSH key to login. You hit ok, and you try logging in. It doesn't accept any passwords. The server basically becomes inoperable.
The only way to solve this is to do a hard reboot. Phsyically rebooting the server.
What could be causing this? This only started to happened when using the RT kernel. Is there an option that may be conflicting with it, however our 3rd and 4th box, with the same configuration has no issues like this. Soft reboots work great.
Here is the message log.

if you type in the browser
Code:
neomagician.com
it redirects to
Code:
[url]
ok no problem there. but when you type
Code:
neomagician.com/forum
OR
[url]
it redirects to the hostname
Code:
[url]
where you promptly receive a 404 error.
BUT, if you type
Code:
[url]
(note the forward slash on the end)
it works just fine.
If you type a nonexistent file or folder it only 404s on the domain name and no redirection occurs.
