I wake up this morning, and my vps' password was changed... aparently someone got into my control panel.. which had a random password that you get from recovery . and changed my vps password, there anyway of changing the pw?

Also on the control panel... on access log there ip wasn't there .. but when i shut it off he went back on and tried putting it back online

Do you have a Windows or Linux VDS? With Windows, you can follow this process: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =46&t=4615

If you haven't already updated your personal machine, checked it for malware, and updated all your passwords (control panel, email, personal machine, etc), you should do that right away.

Already did that, right as i figured it was f'd*

Okay i just started to reinstall, would the ip + user/pw be changed? or just the pw

[Edge100x]

With a reinstall, the IP and passwords will be retained. You will need to change the OS password after your server is finished: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =46&t=4030

ping w.x.y.252 -I w.x.y.z
ping w.x.y.253 -I w.x.y.z
ping w.x.y.254 -I w.x.y.z

wth does in the 1st w.x.y

[Edge100x]

Where w.x.y.z is the IP address on your VDS that isn't responding properly.

[eXiLed]

ping w.x.y.252 -I 64.74.97.135
ping w.x.y.253 -I 64.74.97.135
ping w.x.y.254 -I 64.74.97.135

Are you asking if that is correct?

If so, the answer is that it is not correct. You did not replace the w.x.y part with the correct parts of your IP.
