Not long ago (around the first half of this year), the DNS of Xinnet and Dongwang were attacked by unknown hackers, causing millions of websites such as Huajun and Sky Software Garden to be inaccessible. It was all because of Kuaisheng. Now it's time to reveal the truth:
I have been outsmarting a private server hacker group!
The last time I opened a zone, it was attacked for 12 hours. (Note: The attacks on private servers now are all DDOS, distributed denial of service attacks.)
You must be wondering, why was it attacked for so long? (In general, hacker attacks only target the top advertisements on private server advertisement websites like www.haosf.com, www.92045.com, www.zhaosf.com for half an hour before switching to new targets.) Is it because the hackers had nothing better to do?
It was originally scheduled to open at 3 PM, but suddenly, just 10 minutes after the ad went up, I found that I couldn't remotely access the server.
After much thought, I called the data center to resolve the issue. The data center said they detected heavy traffic, a DDOS attack, and temporarily disconnected the line to handle it.
I was so anxious! I invested seven or eight hundred yuan in advertising fees. Would it all go down the drain?
So, I kept asking the data center if there was still traffic, and they replied that there was constant traffic, and they couldn't reconnect the network cable yet.
At that moment, I was really puzzled, thinking it might be the data center's fault, claiming my server had high traffic even before opening. Damn it, what a lousy data center!
Of course, when it was time to open, I asked the people at the data center, and they still said it couldn't be connected. Damn it, I was so angry, calling them repeatedly.
Until the ad placement ended. In general, DDOS attacks stop when the ad placement ends and shift to attacking other private servers.
However, damn it, after the ad time was over, the data center still had traffic and refused to connect. I was really furious, it must be the data center's fault! Because of the large amount of ads, the customer service QQ kept popping up. Eventually, I had no choice but to switch to the data center of my merged zone. I changed the IP on the website and set the automatic reply of the customer service QQ: "Due to sudden technical reasons, the IP has been changed to: 218.XXX.XXX.XXX."
But the strangest thing happened. Not long after changing my website's IP, I suddenly found that I couldn't log into my new server remotely either. So I called my friend, who said it was being DDOSed, and the entire data center went offline!
This situation continued for three hours. I couldn't figure it out, who did I offend!!
Later, after careful consideration: Alas, it's because my zone's name is "Famous General's Flower."
Famous General's Flower? Do you know what it means? If you don't, you can search it on Baidu or Google. You will find that "Famous General's Flower" refers to the highest-ranking Japanese general killed in China during the Japanese invasion. At the time, I thought the name sounded nice, so I used it.
Unexpectedly, it was because of this that I was targeted by so-called patriotic hackers, and they attacked me for twelve whole hours!! I've never encountered such a situation before when opening zones. I've opened countless zones: Great Eagle Flying Over Earth, Dragon Soaring Over Four Seas, Great Peng Spreading Wings, Moon Gemstone, One Sword Seals the Throat, Beautiful Country Like a Painting, Immortal from Another World, Chaos in the World, Imperial Scholar, Dragon Contending with Tiger, Dragon and Tiger Struggle for Supremacy, Messenger of the Wind, Sword Qi Over the Yangtze River, Sun and Moon Divine Soldiers. These are the zones that are currently running or already open.
Later, I got angry and changed the IP to the IP of Xinnet DNS. Watch me get attacked!
Haha, the next day, I saw on Sohu, NetEase, and Sina homepage headlines: Xinnet DNS encounters unknown hacker attacks, affecting a large number of websites!
