Plesk Server Hacked - How to Backup
Hello!
First of all: I am a newbie.
I have a CentOS 64bit server with Plesk Panel 8.6.
And have been hacked.
After many tries and support tickets, I am configuring a new server, with Suse 11 and Plesk 9.2.
I know that Plesk 8.6 have a backup utility (Parallels Plesk Control Panel 8.6 for Linux/Unix Backup and Restore Utilities Administrator's Guide)
But I have some unclear doubts:
1. Is it safe use restore utility? It will restore the license too, but I want to use the newer license, not the old one.
2. How can I backup everything from my old server to the newer? Including e-mails (qmail), DB (MySQL) and domains files and configurations? Does anyone have experience with this?
3. How can I send the files/backup from one server to another in a quick way? I simply can't download-upload for 2 reasons:
3.a) It's about 200GB of files
3.b) I didn't have enought time
If anyone know anything, please help me.
I am with this trouble about 2 days and after the attack I have only SSH access to the server.
The Plesk Panel don't load.
Thank you very much for your attention,
Miguel Koscianski Vidal

There is a recent case whereby it was reported that one of the production servers was hacked on port 1521. However, I am not sure how this was possible, as I checked that the OS firewall (iptables) is on :

VGCFGRESTORE(8) System Manager's Manual VGCFGRESTORE(8) NAME
vgcfgrestore - restore volume group descriptor area SYNOPSIS
vgcfgrestore [-d|--debug] [-f|--file filename] [-l[l]|--list] [-h|--help] [-M|--Metadatatype1|2] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName DESCRIPTION
vgcfgrestore allows you to restore the metadata of VolumeGroupName from a text backup file produced by vgcfgbackup. You can specify a backup file with --file. If no backup file is specified, the most recent one is used. Use --list for a list of the available backup and archive files of VolumeGroupName. OPTIONS
-l | --list -- List files pertaining to VolumeGroupName List metadata backup and archive files pertaining to VolumeGroupName. May be used with the -f option. Does not restore Vol- umeGroupName. -f | --file filename -- Name of LVM metadata backup file Specifies a metadata backup or archive file to be used for restoring VolumeGroupName. Often this file has been created with vgcfg- backup. See lvm for common options. REPLACING PHYSICAL VOLUMES
vgdisplay --partial --verbose will show you the UUIDs and sizes of any PVs that are no longer present. If a PV in the VG is lost and you wish to substitute another of the same size, use pvcreate --restorefile filename --uuid uuid (plus additional arguments as appropriate) to initialise it with the same UUID as the missing PV. Repeat for all other missing PVs in the VG. Then use vgcfgrestore --file filename to restore the volume group's metadata. SEE ALSO
