  • Desperately seeking Lawrence Hurter, not sure if his mobile nr has changed or if he's on holiday… #fb #
  • How is it that #hackers manage to pin point the exact time that I'm ill to actually do something serious… #ill #fb #
  • #Skype on #Ubuntu #Jaunty == cpu hog. Seems that regularly when I turn my back on my laptop, Skype feels the need to take 100% cpu. #fail #
  • switched to skype-static-oss so far so good #skype #ubuntu #jaunty #
  • All #security updates done. Now I can write about how 2 sites I host were defaced by a #1923turk-grup member & how I kicked him out #fb #
  • Testing TweetSuite Wordpress plugin #
  • How do I set #storcon as configured in #apt or #dpkg? Current status is half-configured, want to get rid of error running #aptitude #ubuntu #

TweetSuite didn’t post a link to the article/post so trying twitter tools now. Feels a lot more mature in the admin department so far…

If all goes well this post should be tweeted. Sorry for the spam…

Hacked, but not for long

Two days ago my wife was notified by one of her customers of a defacement of their site. Obviously this kinda stuff always happens when I’m ill and the last thing I want to be doing is dealing with some random hacker. This post is about what I found and how this should motivate people to at all times update their websites with the latest security fixes and practices.

As far as I’m aware no sensitive data was access nor was any serious damage done other than a few index.html files over written. The only real loss is the joomla site that was broken into as the owner is on holiday and hadn’t updated it for a while, suffice to say it’s down for the time being.
