    attn: Reality Check Network

    It would be nice if you posted a statement about what the fuck is going on, beyond the "we are working on it".

    I feel it's probably better they spend their time on fixing the issues rather than delaying the fixing to go on messageboards to post. They are probably stressed as hell right now..

      An attacker broke into the network and was able to gain access to the servers, corrupting their OS and making them inoperable. Our only option at this point is to format the machines and attempt a restore from backup.

      This is a critical emergency for us and our customers and we will attempt to do everything we possibly can to provide service.

            Holy fucking shit, bad month to have lost my local external backup to a harddrive crash.

            been meaning to start my company over again, nothing like having a hacker push a reset button to get you moving.

                      Exactly.

                      I am sure they will be with DarkJedi soon enough with an update.

                            looks like they host a fair bit of pirate sites. sucks if someone hacked the network for that reason.

                              You need to try and restore the smaller servers like say... I dunno.. rtv.gleem.. the back up is only about 10-30 gigs.. Don't start with the big sites first, will take forever!!!

                                  so every server suffered from the same vulnerability, or

                                  every server had the same global administrator account/password, or

                                  rogue employee.

                                  which one is it?

                                          Is it get data off the hard drives before formatting?

                                              probably not, youll still keep it unless vidz had their processing also hosted with rcn

                                                          im guessing someone hacked one of the servers with ssh keys on it for all the servers and then used some script / bot to log in from there to all the servers and wreck havoc

                                                            they just ICQ'd me the same, but can you imagine how long it must take to restore from backups say a huge tube site client? some of those guys have dozens of drives over multiple servers. I assume since they are their money cow's they'd get the first restore, how long till the 100mbps clients get restored..

                                                            I wanna go get my backup, anyone live near there (brooklyn) ?

                                                                                can also be extremely difficult knowing that a backdoor can be lurking anywhere

                                                                                              yeah and then what, going to serve a 500gb site off your cable modem?

That said, if more hands on deck would be helpful I will put myself and a couple techs in a plane to come out and help in any way we can. Fuck. I'll bring redbull. Call me on my cell if we can do anything to help, seriously. Everyone that's a client- sit tight, pray, be patient - go drink heavily - RCN is surely working it systematically and phone/email/icq requests don't help them get this done any quicker.
