Re: one of my servers has been compromized

I'm not sure if this has been said in this thread yet, but is it
possible the host O/S was compromised? I have not used OpenVZ but I
assume it's the same as Virtuozzo in the respect that you can just
'vzctl enter <ctid>' to get a root shell inside the container with no
password (assuming you have control of the parent O/S). I have come
across a Virtuozzo server before that has been compromised. When I had a
look, as far as I could see the only thing they appeared to do was copy
a Perl script to each container, execute the script then delete it.

If I ever stated that, it means I misused my poor english for sure... I DO 
have root access and I DO own the server, where the server means the *guest* 
OpenVZ instance. I DID configure iptables yesterday in order to block 
outgoing connections. What I can't do is upgrading the kernel because OpenVZ 
is a limited "paravirtualization" system where the guest kernel it's more 
like a stub on top of the only shared host kernel. I have no control over 
the host kernel, so I can't upgrade it.
