Text cursor has disappeared

I have a server that really being a pain in the butt. While connected via SSH I have a cursor. But when connected via avocent KVM I have a flashing cursor but when I type I don't see text.

No Captcha

When I tried to login I was told I had exceeded the maximum number of logins and that I needed to solve the captcha. But there was no capture graphic. I tried using IE, Firefox, and Chrome. I finally remembered my password.

Re: Restarting a Remote Network

AWESOME! Thanks for the hint, Trevor!!! I did not know of the TC command. I just need to learn the syntax to limit eth0 to 5Mb/s. We do use Virtuozzo but I assume that if I rate limit the nic it would be global? Now to learn the command.

Re: Restarting a Remote Network

Thanks very much for your reply. I sure appreciate it. I have a small hosting operation for marketing customers. We are getting pounded by bots that spike our 100Mb/s connection across a bunch of servers. Even with our KVM/IP I cannot gain remote access because there isn't anymore bandwidth. I naive...

Re: Restarting a Remote Network

Thank you for your reply. The question does seem unclear. I am asking if I need to restart the network after changing the port speed.

My servers are SuperMicros with Asus server boards. The command seems so straight forward and therefore my questioning.

Restarting a Remote Network

After issuing a ethtool -s eth0 speed 10 I still see the port speed is 1000Mb/s. Do I need to restart the network after making the change? My data center is 2 hrs. away and, well, as a rookie it scares me. If it hangs... It sucks being green. :roll: I've Googled it and cannot find the answer. I appr...

Re: Unable to secure SSH

Good information but yes, I am running Centos.

Any suggestions on why blocking SSH isn't working? Telling me that I am not running Centos or that it is actually more out dated than thought does not answer the question.

Unable to secure SSH

After a hacking I have attempted to secure SSH and limit it to specific IPs. I have followed the instructions here: http://centoshelp.org/security/securing-sshd/ I have added sshd: ALL to hosts.deny and I have added sshd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to hosts.allow and then restarted sshd. Staying logged in as i...
