Server woes

Bah. I stupidly put a simple password on a temporary user I was setting up for someone to ftp to my server and it happened to be just the right timing for some script kiddie to be running brute force dictionary attacks across my ip range. I've had to rebuild the whole darn thing - lesson learned I suppose. Thank god with CentOS and yum it was very very easy to get back up and running! I didn't lose any data, so that's a plus.

More bloggage coming soon!
