Not much you can do with cobalt systems. What are you paying in hosting anyway, just get a linux box. Let me know if you need prices.

With the raq's you're pretty locked. Where are you hosted ?

eh yea ok thanks for ya offer

icq - 24449990

dude answer your icq or email me
at support AT sprhill.net

my icq is open i havent recived anything from you ;(

Make sure all your patches are up to date if they aren't already.

The latest one there is the Apache / SSL fix.


Limit the 3rd party scripts you might be using, and make sure all of the ones you do use.. are kept patched.

doing that now I swear to god my hand to the porn gods I WILL have this box secure and I WILL LEARN what the hell im doing to secure it. NEVER I MEAN NEVER DEPEND on people that say your fucking box is secure unless you are the one that is securing it your DAMN SELF. LEsson LEARNED

You can depend on other people, you just have to make sure that you find the right people to depend on. Most of the people who run big money web companies, adult or non-adult, don't secure their own servers - they're too busy doing other shit. You just have to find the right people to work with who know what they're doing. Also, remember that no server is 100% secure no matter what you do, unless you unplug it. :-)

very well said...

A RaQ? Shit why didn't you say so.
I'll hit you up on ICQ in a few minutes. Do you subscribe to the Cobalt-Users mailing list? The Cobalt-Security list? You should...
This is a little dated but will get you headed in the right direction:

Also you can search the user's lists for whatever you want to know about Cobalts here:

I'm finishing up something right this minute but *will* contact you in a few.

yes....

get a linux box and turn on the AUTOUPDATE script!

so it will install the last RPMS everyday for you....

this is the #1 feature to turn your box more secure...

the #2 feature is to remove the ports from the services file you don´t need.... :glugglug

HJey carrie thanks ;) no i dont belong to that list I WILL NOW though

Doesn't Pr0 run some website security business?

Just found out that one of my webmasters in Beta Brigade had the same defacement done last night.
And he found this... looks like the assholes were extremely busy!
