Which free server admin tool do you prefer? As far as I can tell Webmin and DirectAdmin are the major players (correct me if I am wrong). I am the only one with access, so their is no need for other accounts or hosting sites from others.

Just been thinking and currently i host all my services with other hosting companies like my web hosting accounts etc...but was thinking of buying a DA licence and installing it onto one of my linux servers.
On DA's website it says one licence per IP or something along them lines...does this mean if i was to install a licence on say 99.99.99.999 and it was working ok etc but then if i changed my IP range to 99.99.99.998 would that mean the DA licence would no longer be valid?
we have a server that was breeched and is being used to send ddos attacks to another website and we need to stop it permanently and secure our server to avoid it from happening again.
My tech has already been able to track down the bot/script that was sending it and seemed to stop it for about a week, but they have gained access to the server again.
He is not an expert at security issues so I'm looking to hire someone for a one time job to correct this issue.
Can someone offer me some referrals of someone to take care of this. Please do not recommend Rack911 as I waited nearly a week for their assistance and had no luck.
Has anyone used Attacker.net for server admin work, especially on FreeBSD? My other Admin team bailed on me, so I am looking for a new team to Secure and Harden my box. I have searched the boards, and have not found a review on them yet.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe are migrating an existing multi-site Windows2003/IIS6 web hosting system with

On the new system we are looking to add Plesk12 to give users easier management of their own websites.I am about to install the trail version of Plesk12 WebHOST.I have the following questions:
1. Can we use the plesk migration tool to move the websites from the old IIS6 to the new IIS8.5 server?
2. If not, am I right to think we would migrate from IIS6 to IIS8.5 manually and then import these websites into Plesk12 from the new server?
3. Can I migrate the existing websites piecemeal over onto the new server and into the Plesk control panel at the same time as creating brand new websites under the control panel?
4. Once Plesk is installed on the new IIS server is there a KB article on how to add all these existing websites to Plesk - I could not find one.
5. Is the local windows administrator account used for the install used to run any services?
I have experiencing strange behaviour of Plesk admin panel. Actually there were a lot of issues similar with 500 Internal Server error but mine is a bit different..
This is the log came from the '/var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log'
/bin/sh: /usr/share/sw-cp-server/applications-conf.sh: Permission denied
Cannot find config item ["global/SERVERsocket==:8443", ".php", 0]
2014-10-29 19:38:22: (mod_fastcgi.c.1068)
[Code] ....
As you can see there is a line starts with /bin/sh: /usr/share/sw-cp-server/applications-conf.sh: Permission denied and i tried to change this one for permission like 0755 or alternatives for a run but nothings changed. Btw i have plenty of disk space, it wasn't also the case.
I cannot even login with my domain name without 'https' and with the port 8880. It's again giving me the same issue.
BTW i want to give a little extra information; it was a long time that Plesk admin panel working but after today it's stuck in 500 Internal server error. What i tried today that to follow 'How to generate custom self-signed SSL certificates and apply it to Postfix: [URL] ....' , but after 6th step i was decied to stop because i couldnt find the root.pem file a minute and than i wanted to try on plesk and i saw the bad news I don't know it was related but i wanted to share.

View 0 Replies View RelatedI have a customer who is hosting a website on a dedicated server. The server is a high spec server with Intel Core 2 DUO E8400 processor, 4 GB DDR2 ECC RAM and a SATA Hard Drive. He is running only a single website which has a data entry section. The problem is that a few scripts when run consume 99% of the CPU. In fact, there is a particular script which even if run alone consumes 99% CPU. The code retrieves some records from the database by running an SQL query. The code is never executed. I have checked the sql query in the code and it runs fine if executed in SQL Query Analyzer. I know the problem is somewhere in the code, but cannot find the exact cause. Is there a tool to debug the asp code and find out may be the issue with the code? I have tried the Debug Diagnostics utility,
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have several servers and I need a tool to measure CPU/disk/memory performance.
I no nothing about hardware (and I also don't want/need to know).
The tools is to compare only - I don't care about the measure unit, I just need a way to compare the performance between my servers like which one as a faster CPU and so on...
Anyone knows such a FREEWARE (and not bloatware) tool?
If the tool has some kind of hardware report... well.. even better.
