Yep, all was well since Saturday afternoon -- until this afternoon when the server filled up again!
Looking at /var/log/syslog it appears I have been hacked by some maggots using me as their private email server.
If you don't mind, can I pick your brain again?
Mysql seems to still be running, as I haven't rebooted the server. Trying to run it tells me this: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO). Do I need to include the password somewhere in the command line?
1.) I expect there is a file on the server that is running the show. Any idea how I can locate it?
2.) It might be using a database table or text file to provide the addresses
3.) Is there a way I can delete the email log file in order to recover some space?
At any rate, things have settled down now since the hackers might be done for the day.
I can resize the hard drive to get the domains/sites to come up but unless I delete the script and/or email list file it will just fill up again. With your expert advice, hopefully I can delete the files that are causing the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help!
