I just got a new vps running virtuozzo with cpanel/whm. I have no plans on ever using email on this server. What's the best way to turn all of it off from whm/cpanel and is it worth doing to speed up the server?
View 4 RepliesMany of our clients create e-mail accounts that forward incoming e-mail to mailboxes hosted on other e-mail services. e.g., Gmail.
Lately, though, a handful of these accounts have been receiving a lot of spam (i.e., UCE) and that's been causing a lot of damage to our reputation with these other e-mail services because the message that's being forwarded appears to have originated from our servers.
Code:
<someuser@gmail.com>: host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[64.233.183.27]

Disabling POP and IMAP on cPanel
We're using Google Apps to handle all e-mail for the domain, so we have no need for POP and IMAP services running on our server (and I'm always getting e-mails from LFD that show bots are trying to connect with random passwords and such) so I want to disable them, but keep SMTP active since some scripts running on our server use it and I don't feel like rewriting them right now.
I unchecked IMAP and POP in the WHM service manager to disable them, but it's still enabled and I'm able to connect and everything. How can I completely disable these 2 services?
Everytime a new account is created in WHM/cPanel, the "Allow Annonymous Access for FTP" option is enabled by default. Since this is something I want turned off for all new accounts... does anyone know a way of switching this off globally in cPanel/WHM so that every new account will have this turned off by default?

I have a website which has a FLV player serving .flv files which are hosted in the server. I notice that some users are directly downloading the files using the direct URL and they seem to be using download managers for that which is opening several Apache connections and open slows down Apache. I want to prevent this. I thought of preventing it using a .htaccess file but did not help. This is what I used:
<Files *>
order allow,deny
allow from 127.0.0.1
allow from localhost
deny from all
</Files>
I thought this would work but it doesn't as it is blocking the FLV player from playing the file. Can anyone tell me the right way to do it?
We all know that some php funcions are dangerous, such as:
system, system_exec, passthru, shell, shell_exec, exec, popen, pclose, proc_open, proc_nice, proc_terminate, proc_get_status, proc_close, pfsockopen, leak, apache_child_terminate, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_setuid, escapeshellcmd, escapeshellarg
Those functions can be disabled at php.ini using disable_functions option.
Now.. what about disable_classes option? I haven't seen anyone talking about this on the common security tutorials. What are your suggestions for this? What classes should be disabled?

I am trying to troubleshoot messages piling up in my /var/log/messages on CentOS 5 that look like this:

someone develop a game which is server-centric. Everything is done server-side. In any case, he can compile it without a problem in Ubuntu, but on my CentOS 4.4 servers, he's having trouble.
The one last bug that he's hit, is that he needs to disable the stack protector on CentOS 4.4 in order to compile the game without any more problems.
in order to secure my server against instrusion, i disabled ssh root login and created a user for myself. however in order to access the user i need to enable SSH Password authentication
I dont enable password authentication all the time and i keep it disabled unless i need to do something via ssh.
Now my question will be, is there a way to keep the user i created and keep the root login disabled and password authentication disabled but use ssh keys for the user i created?
I was informed that if i opt to login to ssh via the user i created, the only way to do that is to enable password authentication as it cannot work with ssh keys. is this true?
I really hope someone can help me how to use the user i created together with ssh keys so i dont have to enable password authentication when loggin to ssh

View 0 Replies View RelatedAt times as I'm developing, due to some coding error in PHP on my part, particularly calling a COM object, the apache server crashes. I'm delighted that it recovers, but in so doing it always tries to rerun the query that crashed it, which just causes another crash, and so on. Is there some way of getting round this, so that it recovers but the problematic code is not rerun?
