  • Description:
    I need a linux expert to check my webserver.
    Starting some days ago the server is very slow. And it looks like it is low on memory although nothing has changed. One of the things noticed is that SMTP server stopped spontaniously (I have restarted it through the Plesk admin panel and it keeps running now)
    So I need a total checkup on the server to make it run like it should again.
    Server information
    Linux 2.6.27.29-0.1
    AuthenticAMD, Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 1210 HE
    1 GB memory
    Plesk 9.5.3 (maybe this should be upgraded to 10?)
    I have Module Magic Spam installed and upgrated to the latest version.
    Horde webmail is having some problem, like I can't save a message as draft. Gives me an error message: Access denied for APPEND on INBOX. (ACL "i" required) Maybe Horde should be upgraded too?
    YES I have root access to the server.

    Additional Info (Added 10/7/2011 at 6:07 EST)...
    Looks like the server is hacked, there are 2000 outgoing RUSSIAN mails in the outgoing mail queue. So I need someone to remove virus, trojan or whatever it is. URGENT!

    Additional Info (Added 10/11/2011 at 11:25 EST)...
    Upgrade Plesk from 9.5 to 10 failed in effort to solve problems. So also Plesk eroors have to be fixed.

Your server wasn't hacked, per se, and you don't have a virus. You have an open email relay or some other way, such as a web script, that allows hackers to send mail using your server. I'm pretty sure I know exactly what's going on. I think I can fix this immediately.
