New buffer overflow???

[JoeyC]

Seems there may be a new overflow that allows access to the box the mohaa server is on. Anyone hear of this???. My server provider says they are going to discontinue renting mohaa servers.

[[KC]Murdock]

never has hear this or have troubles with it. There is a bof out here but if your files are from 2004 you should be ok (for the bof)

[JADE]

i dont know if this is the place to say , but i test crashed my server the other day with a old dos bof hack & crashed my server and 2 others on the same box .

   

   now my provider has closed his server rental off ;( and sold out to some other providers .

   the test is the dos prompt were you just add the server ip and press enter , it i think finds a hole or something in the memory on the box and fills it to crash it .

   

   so i need a rental server again ;( .

[JoeyC]

I have all the fixes applied to my server. My provider is going to drop all moh series games because their servers got hacked into. If there is something new out I think all providers will do the same and this game will finally die out. Jade let me know what provider you hook up with.

[viper1]

i havent heard of it joey and usually see or hear of new exploits quite quickly..who is your provider? quite possibly a pvt exploit but these things dont stay hidden long. ive checked the "usual suspects" webbys but no mention of it m8.

[JoeyC]

http://www.wolfservers.com">http://www.wolfservers.com is my provider. They cost more but have been happy with until I got that email.

[viper1]

your gonna need another GSP m8 i would suggest http://www.gameservers.com/">http://www.gameservers.com/ if i remember correctly you were windows based? gameservers are linux but overall they are in my opinion one of the best GSP's available. you can check your/your clans pings if you just browse their servers try mine if ya like based newyork/newjersey 8.2.122.123:12203...just out of curiosity how many moh servers were they hosting? sounds like a cop out to me

[Salombo]

I don't think anything new is out since most are busy with cod4. :p

   Your provider probably didn't have many mohaa clients and picked that excuse to explain the drop.

[JoeyC]

Pm me your ts info viper. I may go with gameservers but I may need the current fixes for linux. Wolf has plenty of mohaa servers but they probably are not all patched.

[Paladin]

We use gameservers and have been much happier than with other gsp's we've tried.

[JADE]

i want a windows server , so im just sorting 1 out here http://www.gameservers.com/">http://www.gameservers.com/  !

   so i can get the qconsole logging working ! as i can never get it working on linux servers ? .

[Paladin]

Are you talking about logging game stats?  We have ours setup to work on our linux server.  They make some change on the box to make the qconsole.log do that.

[viper1]

jade gameservers dont do windows based servers..only linux. and my qconsole logs are running fine on linux as is paladins.

   Ps paladin do you have a stats page on your webby? is that why you keep the console logs on your server? actually does anyone have a working stats page as i would like some help setting one up on my webby? sry for offtopic :con

[JoeyC]

Hey viper I will pop on your ts in a couple of hours I need to get some stuff. Jade check your pm's I sent you 1 earlier.

[JADE]

ty viper .

   

   well what i found also with linux servers is when you stand still in game , sometimes the screen keeps moving sideways or up or down ,,,,,,,,,,,,!! depending on the weapon you fired last i think .

   

   why i say its something to do with weapons is cos if you dont fire a gun , it dont keep moving sideways or up or down ? .

   

   when i have asked the gsp in the past , they say its something to do with the realism .

   you cannot turn realism off linux servers they told me too .
