For Start-up Biz In ATL
Oct 2, 2007Recently left a big corporate job and started my own consulting firm in the area of human resources/employee benefits. Right now, my technology consists of a laptop with online backup through Carbonite. I am ILLITERATE when it comes to technology, so bear with me please....
BackgroundThe business plan calls for growth by adding a small number of employees, starting with an assistant, along with working with independent contractors. These will each need to have access to the files that now reside on my hard drive. I don't anticipate more than 6 people (employees and/or contractors, combined) in the first year.
In addition to the shared access described above, I would need to be sure that the environment where files are stored is highly secure, and that I can grant access to files to some people and not others.
In addition to the above, I need to ensure that all the data are backed up routinely.
Employees/contractors will likely not be in the same office location where I am located, and some (most) may work from a home office.
My assistant, when hired, may/may not be in my office. Regardless, (s)he will need to have access to (and make changes to) my contacts and calendar in outlook. In addition, (s)he will need to be able to read and send emails on my behalf.
AT&T, as part of my advertising with them in the Yellow Pages, is developing (and will host) my website. Included in their service will be email boxes (up to 20) with my domain name.
Business Need
Based on these points, I figured I needed to buy a server, so I've been talking with Dell. Of course, they'll sell me a server and they have a relationship with All Covered who will install it and make sure its operational.
But after talking wtih Dell, I learned that there was something called managed hosting, colocated hosting, dedicated hosting, and shared hosting. I called Rackspace, they said they would be overkill for what I needed and referred me to Mosso. Mosso said the same thing, and sent me to this site.

Going To Start An ISP
Sep 19, 2007While i have loads a experience running servers remotely, I know to start my own ISP is a bit more costly and involves things like rack servers, temperature controled rooms and BANDWIDTH.
I have handle on 1st two, ( and yes htings like insurance and a store are looked after )
What i need are a list of T3 providers that I can contact about purchasing a dedicated T3 line for our store. While the location isn't yet set in stone and i may in fact look at a existing computer store owner who may be open to the idea already.
The company will host local websites, and others websites.
AND allow for reselling on a lessor level and include at least 6 others who host game servers.
With these 6 the T3 line will probably be almost half used, so the ISP must be scalable for growth.
The thing i need in nut shell are pricing on a T3 line of my own in or close to downtown Oshawa Ontario, Canada

We Were Hacked, Where Do We Start.
Jan 27, 2009we have a vps server and someone did what I would call a calling card attack, thankfully.
It is a stock kubuntu os with stock apache. Root passwords for everything have been changed to our own
Somehow they logged into kubuntu as root and changed the htpasswd in usr/passwords (changed to protect the password).
Then since they changed the htpasswd they were able to log into phpmyadmin and changed the admin password in the database.
I'm pretty sure I know who did it and he is teaching us a lesson which I respect but he will not comunicate with us.
We have hourly snapshots of our vps and we need to know how they are getting in. See my sig and click on the hotspot login.
Looking at the sudoers there is the Defaults line that we suspect as a means to get in.
We have a great php etc... app but it is either Apache or kubuntu that they can get in.
I would like to learn about what needs to be done about security but where do I start?
Can someone help me look for something that would allow the attack?
I'm a php guy and it is not a mysql injection attack nor is it an xss attack.
I am not a kubuntu / server security guy and now need your advice.

How To Enable Csf On Start Up

Apache Won't Start
Jun 18, 2008I spent all my afternoon on this but I couldn't managed to solve this problem out. Hope someone knows the solution for this one.
I've chrooted Apache and now it won't start. I try to run it with chroot /chroot/httpd httpd and it doesn't start but instead enters a single error in a error log. Something about permission being denied and apr_proc_detach constant. The best part is that I managed to run it flawlessly on an another server, but on this one it won't start. If I start it with -X parameter then it runs fine. Has anyone came across this error before? What libraries I should put in chroot environment to avoid the apr_proc_detach permission denied error?
On another computer it runs without problems, so I believe it's problem me not including all the necessary libraries in the environment (I included everything on the ldd /usr/sbin/httpd list).

View 13 Replies View RelatedAPF Start On Boot
Aug 19, 2008I've supposedly set APF firewall to start at boot time, by doing something like:
chkconfig --levels 2345 apf on
However i have my reservations to weather it is actually starting, its set to block port 80, after boot if i try and access it, the connection will get refused straight away, however if i go and manually start APF then try and access again, it will take a while, like its ignoring the connection attempt (which is good).
How could I check if APF is actually running?

Snmpd Won't Start
Jan 23, 2008My configuration is correct because I have been using the same one on multiple servers.
I have run into this on another server actually, where the init script says it starts, but it in fact has not started. Stopping it results in a fail, and its nowhere to be found in the process list, but the PID file exists. I turned it to verbose and had it output to a log file, and the only thing I see is NET-SNMP version 5.1.2.

Cirtexhosting What A Bad Start
May 22, 2008I bought hosting from cirtexhosting 4 days ago after I read his post in the advertising forum. Paid for a year up front thinking that they should be an ok company. But, I was wrong. Over the pass 4 days their milky server is totally unusable. In the cpanel server status page, cpsrvd, mysql (4.1.22-standard-log), clamd, ftpd, antirelayd, httpd (1.3.41 (Unix)) are all in red color, I guess that means they are down? Cronjob also doesnt work. I sent them tickets the pass few days. Tickets regarding billing is answered within an hour which means they are very good at collecting money. But support ticket answered with "this ticket requires the managament, and are being left unanswered for over 24 hours. Their live support is completely useless , been waiting for 15 to 20 min no one answers. So what, should I be asking for refund? I read some reviews about them on this forum, and they are not suppose to be this bad?
