Bee is the subject of yet another DOS attack at this moment. We are working to kill all the ips associated with it and have already banned over 30 separate IPs. Please be patient while we get this resolved.

A new drive is being added quickly to Bee tonight, it is an emergency. The accounts will be divided between the original drive and the new drive (/home2).
The downtime should be about 5 minutes, but please allow a 30 minute window.

In the next few days, we will upgrade the server to a dual Xeon. I will make an announcement 24 hours prior to that.

Kayla

Guys, we need to postpone this until a few more days. For now you are able to upload fine, but it is best to do the upgrade when we upgrade the processor as well.

Kayla

Please read the information below carefully if you are located on this server.


The old IP is 66.195.243.129

The new IP is 72.29.75.111


VERY IMPORTANT STEP:

If you do not get to complete this step, your site will not go down, but we would appreciate it if you make the change (as explained here in Extra Notes: IP Changes : ns100/ns101).

Please update your domain's DNS to the following:

ns738.dizinc.com
ns739.dizinc.com

Any domain you host on this server, whether it is parked or add-on, please change the DNS of that domain to the DNS above.

If you registered the domain with us you can make this change at
http://www.surpassdomains.com

Otherwise, you need to make this change at the site where you registered the
domain.

If you go to your site and you see a cPanel page that reads "No website configured at this address" that means your local computer
is trying to load your site on the old IP. Simply restart your PC, modem or router so it can release it from cache.

P.S. If you are using an SSL or have a static IP email esurpasshosting.com with your domain name so we can assign you a new static IP and make sure your SSL is working correctly.

Bee was just running really slow.. the problem was a Greymatter file. It has been disabled in the user's directory.

Emmanuel

Old ip's are being removed right now, please make sure you made the changes above and if you have not please make them now.

there is also a maintenance window open for this server from 4am to 6am June 27 2005

If you use any of the following scripts:

FA-PHPHosting
PHPClique
PHPCalendar
PHPCurrently
PHPFanBase
PHPQuotes

Please disable them immediately or use the fix specified below. There are serious exploits going around the net right now and have been for the past few months. All of these scripts are made by http://codegrrl.com/ and have a ridiculously easy hole in them:
"
include($logout_page);
"
This allows an attacker to include whatever code they wish into the php file and run the commands.
To avoid getting your site defaced, we recommend you either remove the protection.php file asap, or edit it and remove that line above.
