Fixed - damn crackers abusing awstats!
Submitted by bruisah on Fri, 11/25/2005 - 23:34.At long last, I think I've fixed my server - erm, maybe I shoudl say, "secured".
It looks like awstats had a security hole associated with it.
Searching Google revealed all the pertinent information I needed.
A quick look at my apache logs confirmed that I'd been done.
Interestingly, the first thing these dozy crackers do is to download scanning software, a backdoor, and a "call-back" script onto my server.
