Windows Good protection in dedicated server.

[Hermes]

Hi there!

I'm going to buy dedicated server with Windows (yes, no Linux because I don't want to f*k up with compilling every release or using damn noob and ugly putty).

And I'm wondering, how to make and keep it safe? I mean what software I need to install to block stupid h4><0rz? This software shouldn't get in the way of server, like scanning it 24/7 (I'm noob in security )

And what should I look on before buying dedicated server?

And the last question. How I can track noob haxor by his IP adress? To beat him up or to send nuke to blow up his head xD.

Thanks,
Hermes

First I would use the programm Pear Guardian 2 its perfect to do range bans.

Just install xampp 1.6.8. Rename the phpmyadmin map and put a .htaccess file in it, then drop the PMA-user. I also recommend putting a .htaccess in the POT map. Do not install any virusscans because it will lagg your server and as long you scan everything on your own computer before you put it on the dedicated it won't go wrong I guess.

That's everything you gotta do I guess.

Rep++?

How this .htaccess should look like and how it works?

@up
http://localhost/security

then when you set your password under there it will be something like protect etc... and then when you click on it, it will automatic come to your htdocs i guess.

You want to completely block phpmyadmin or that only you can access it from your home-computer?

a really good solution u dont have

    Alias /phpmyadmin "C:/xampp/phpMyAdmin/"
    <Directory "C:/xampp/phpMyAdmin">
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Order allow,deny 
        Allow from all <--- TO UR DEDI IP
    </Directory>

change line allow from to ur dedicated ip and just that ip can access the phpmyadmin so u dont need to put anny htacess shit in it

/Danne

Don't use xampp and enable the windows firewall, that's all.
