Wow, someone really hacked it and took the whole domain down!
You'd figure they'd have this all figured out and secured before putting up such a site! Was it you Sahirh?

Damn thats disgusting.. some idiot actually did take down the site. damn script kiddies..

what did they do when they got in ?

rm -rf /www

Whatever happened to honour and just being satisfied with 'the rush'.


Damn kids.

hi sahir...what do u mean by rm -rf/www?
i still have no idea how they can access and redirect the website....

rm is the linux command for 'delete'..

-rf means delete all subdirectories, and force the delete if the directory is not empty.

/www is a directory name where a website might be kept.

In short it means 'delete the whole website directory'.. a windows equivalent might be 'deltree c:\inetpub\wwwroot'.

The way they redirected and deleted the website is quite simple. They broke into the server.. and then basically had shell access (kinda like a DOS prompt) to the server.. from there they could delete the website.. or create an HTML page that redirects, and uploaded that in place of index.html

The actual method they used to get in is not clear right now.
