Someone setup a phishing site at gmail-webhost.com on my server.
He set up using the root account.
Since then I changed my root password. Do you think there's a chance he installed some back door that he can access root again even though I change the root password?
I have these few old accounts(websites) that has history of being phish attacked. The problem is like this. When I transfer them to newer server using whm backup transfer in most cases hacker can still upload phish pages BUT if I recreate the account and moved old the files manually to that new account and server phish attacked is gone. Any idea why this is happening? Probably old cpanel files that causes this? where do I start? For some reasons I cannot just recreate the account then do it manually in behalf of the clients. Some sites are somehow complicated if I do it manually.
I'm curious, how do you all Cpanel server owners setup reseller accounts for clients? I find myself doing it this way (providing 2 static IP's, for ns1/ns2)
1. create reseller account 2. ssh > edit nameserverips and manually add ns1/ns2 to the two select IP's of choice 3. change account IP to first main static IP, in whm
Any one else do it this way, or another method? I use WHMCS also, which creates the account automatically, but I have to edit nameserverips and appy ns1/ns2 manually in whm (A dns zone) manually.
Also, I'm wanting to upgrade some of the PHP 4 / MYSQL 4 boxes to PHP 5 / MYSQL 5. Is it worth it, or not? If yes, what methods could I use to assure no side effects for some clients' scripts, or at least some method to help them should an issue arise?
How long does it normally take to get a shared account setup with a hosting provider? I am now in my 5th day and still have not had the account setup. I have made my DNS changes and I just keep getting email responses that it is coming. Should I be worried or is a week the normal response time in a shared environment?
Im running Cpanel 11 Release (stage 2) and i was wondering if you can setup WHM so that when an account is created, it automatically has:
A default generic SPF record suphp_ConfigPath set for custom php.ini (/home/username/php.ini) Custom session.save_path for php (/home/username/tmp) Create /home/username/tmp folder
I think thats about it for now. Any ideas? I know about zone templates, but they dont seem to fit this bill. They might work for the SPF records though.
Whats the turnaround time for liqudweb? They had called me and confirmed my account is verified but thats more than 14 hrs back and yet no sign of getting information about the new account setup.
When I called customer support line, the guy "not sure when the account will be setup "
Our domain is hosted with a cPanel based shared hosting company only for website.
We have an Exchange 2003 server that is assigned with two dedicated IP's provided by our ISP with rDNS configured. So all outgoing emails are send using these two ISP lines and all works fine.
Since we are going to change the ISP, and the new ISP is refusing to set rDNS we are going to use our cPanel based shared hosting account to send our mails - so we will be configuring our Exhcnage 2003 to [smarthost] to forward all the emails to the hosting server.
I need to what I have to do in the cPanel account to make this work.
I have a VPS server now with 1and1.com (no wait times with tech support, and very friendly and helpful), only problem is... they haven't been able to help me resolve one of my problems.
My client has their domain registered with Network Solutions. I've already changed the DNS settings to point to my VPS where I've created the domain within Plesk. I can log into my FTP, change the site, yadda yadda yadda just like any other site. So everything works there!
Now, when I create an email account in Plesk I put in my user/pass etc... and create an email account... Great, awesome.
I go into Outlook and put in the email information, incoming/outgoing mail settings, user/pass, etc... and nothing works... It pops up and pretty much nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong for this to not work? Do I have to create a sub domain within Plesk for my domain? If so, I've already done that.
Must I change something over at Network Solutions to reflect the mail server? If so, I've added the MX records of mail.mydomain.com with prio of 10.
I have a VPS account with WHM/Cpanel console access. I have three domains that I am trying to setup. Within WHM I have setup three different accounts, one for each domain. I am able to login to the cPanel for all three accounts. This also created a new web directory for each domain in /home/domain_name/public_html/. I have placed my default index.php in all three public_html with the same permissions. But only 1 domain is working the other two are not. What am I missing? I have confirmed that all three have the correct DNS servers with godaddy and I can do an nslookup on all three. My provider told me to share the IP so that is what I am configured as..
I have a virtual dedicated server which i currently host a couple of clients websites on, the control panel i am using is Simple Control Panel.
What i would like is an automated program or script that automatically sets up a users FTP access and creates a directory with a mysql database - I also require it to bill the customer on a monthly basis and if no payment is received from the customer the account then goes offline (but is not deleted)
how i can set this up and what is the best thing to use.
Not sure if I labeled that correctly, but I am looking to setup a multi-server where I offer a cloud ssd hosting plan, and sata hosting plan. The current setup has ssd hosting, but id like to add another ip address, as well as its hard drive to host other websites on that specific server, which is sata based.
For example, I add a domain to my plesk 12 admin account and choose the added Ip address (the sata based one), where it points to that server to access the files for that specific website.
At the moment, cloudflare handles all of my dns settings.. but I am totally lost on how this needs to be setup and if I am required to purchase another plesk license. I am trying to avoid purchasing another plesk license and having to setup a whole new plesk installation just to do this.. This is a vps by the way, not a dedicated server...
I registered a domain name and setup a Linux server on GoDaddy, choosing Plesk panel with Power Pack. Inside the panel I created an email address, which I can access from the webmail interface without problems. I decided to setup my clients as well, using the IMAP configuration, as I'm using multiple devices.
I followed the instructions for Outlook express and I was able to setup the account on my virtual machine, with Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail.Though, speaking of the host machine, a MacBook Pro, I normally use Apple Mail that comes with MacOS. Instructions for setting up Mail are updated back to Snow Leopard at least and they do not work properly. I tried various configurations, but I was only able to receive mail on the account, while sending won't work at all.
I'd like Parallels to update the guide or, at least, to open a KB page with the solution(s) to this issue: I googled it and found out that it is a common issue.
As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.
What I'm looking for:
- linux hosting - hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains - at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs - each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz) - maildir - spamassassin - php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8 - suexec apache would be nice
I have learnt it is harder to setup than I initially expected (since I have just moved from a shared hosting service). I am in need of some help setting up my DNS servers, as I am very confused. Here is most of the info I know:
1) I am running HyperVM
2) I've installed LXAdmin
3) I own the domain (purchased from xeodomains.com) runemart.com
4) My VPS hostname is: vps.runemart.com
5) I know my IP
6) My host has said:
'For VPS customers that have a HyperVM login you can now host forward DNS on the DNS servers rdns1.vaserv.com (US)rdns2.vaserv.com (UK'
And I am unsure what this means/how to do it.
I am not sure if I need some more information to set up my DNS, however I am sure that I can get it if I do.
Now, my questions begin. Firstly, I need to point my domain - runemart.com - somewhere. I believe I need to set up my DNS via HyperVM or LXAdmin so that they are something like: ns1.runemart.com and ns2.runemart.com. Though, is this correct? Am I able to set up my own actual domain name servers, or will my domain have to point at something like rdns2.vaserv.com?
If anyone can assist me in this I would be very greatful, as I am waiting to get my website running. This is all I will ask for now, I will take it one step at a time =).
In moving my site to Drupal, I have had it on a "Beta" account on the same server. I need to move the DB to the "Live" site. How do I re-assign it using the master PHPMyAdmin through WHM to change the owner of the DB from "Beta site" to "Live site"?
I noticed there is always notification to user account mail with account info but on all my servers on different networks notification comes only to server mail.How do i enable that?Do i need to install tweak to whm/cpanel?
existing account have enabled catch all account automatically & i don't know how?
Main >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings Default catch-all/default address behavior for new accounts. "fail" is usually the best choice if you are getting mail attacks.
currently it is tick marked on fail
And forwarders has been set to e.g jeetu@jeetu.info to domain automatically & also i don't how?
when i try to delete this forwarder its shown deleted successfully
Code:
Email Forwarding Maintenance
jeetu@jeetu.info's mail will no longer be redirected to jeetu.
then again i checked forwarder & found that forwarder is not deleted why?
what could be the problem?
due to this our clients are facing out of disk space running problem & they are not able to get future emails
1. now i want to disable catch all account for all existing accounts at one go
2. also i want to terminate forwarders for all existing users at one go Let me know how to do this
I am currently researching and evaluating Network Attached Storage systems and was wondering whether anyone out there has had previous experiences (good or bad) with any particular setup?
I am particularly curious to know:
1- what kind of a performance hit I can expect when data is stored on a NAS and accessed via ethernet over iSCSI as opposed to regular SATA or SCSI.
2- what pre-built NAS system would you recommend for a system that requires about 8 TB of disk space for file data and needs to have 100% uptime? I've been looking at: [url]
However I don't know what sort of limitations this hardware offers as far as simultaneous disk reads/writes go.
I need to setup a vpn for a customer so they can access a development server. I'm running a Tomcat server and an Oracle database that they would need access to, both port 80(or 8080) and port 1521. This needs to be secured as there is customer data that needs to be protected.
This server will be part of our existing servers we rent from Pacificrack. I really would appreciate any suggestions as the best way to do this, short of buying my own cisco or checkpoint firewall with vpn.
