Comments on: GoodBye Servage! http://www.proxyutza.com/goodbye-servage/ About all sorth of things: PHP, Hacks, Scripts, Servers, Linux, Technology, News, Trends Mon, 01 Dec 2008 18:52:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: awol http://www.proxyutza.com/goodbye-servage/#comment-1779 awol Wed, 05 Nov 2008 20:56:13 +0000 http://www.proxyutza.com/?p=56#comment-1779 I had hosting with servage, I was hacked repeatedly (injected code into both .php and .html files, and also injecting full files as well. additional ftp accounts were created with randomised names that would indicate they were set up via scripts, I know my account password was secure - 20 characters alphanumeric case sensitive randomised is pretty damn good - there is no malware of any type on my pc i use to connect to - believe me, i've searched and searched and ran packet sniffing and everything. not a single dodgy packet outgoing. I asked about secure ftp, i asked about restricting ftp access to a specific static ip (which would have solved the problem entirely) but even after doing this, repeated password changes, deleting the ftp accounts, reloading from backup and repeated requests for those two features (and questioning why the first "captcha" never worked - perhaps some dns servers somewhere are pointing the servage control panel through a malicious server and an iframe). i made the decision to quit. I'm considering lunarpages, i have a friend with an account with no issues.

I can see dark clouds gathering upon the horizon already, since I cannot afford to lose any of the mentioned domains... :( ProXy,

I did not tried to move it, because it was not an important domain for me, so i left it there. Probably you have to pay for moving the domains.

Unfortunately I'm (still) one of them but with plans to changing this within 2 months, when my first contract session expires. However, what I wanted to ask you was if you had any domains registered with them and if yes, did you have any troubles moving out your website(s)? I'm curently hosting 5 domains with Servage and upon reading some of the scarriest reviews around - and discovering by myself my hacked index - I'm really concerned about the moving process. Thank you. Hi,
