Right path or wrong path....i just HAVE to say I think you guys, ALL of you, are GREAT

This should give you a start.

Go to this site and select the vendor (e.g. phpbb)

if its a seriel defacement happening chances are its related to the mod_gzip exploit. to stop this disable debug mode

So, I guess i've done all i can and know how... i suppose i could do plenty more, but as my "boss" says, "there'll always be people who can find their way in, no matter how good you try to prevent it" ....

That doesn't mean stop securing your box. That's like saying, people are going to get in no matter what, so I'm just not going to secure my box. You want to make it as hard as you possibly can for someone to get in. You should always be looking for new ways to make your box more secure. You should also always be looking for patches and updates for all your software.

metaliana, you can look at it this way...although it is true that no matter how hard you work to secure something, somebody can always find a way in, it is possible to make it so that you are not a "victim of opportunity"...by plugging the known holes which have been pointed out, and keeping up with the known exploits, at least you ensure that a script kiddie isn't going to accidentally find his/her way in. Anybody that does actually get in will have to "earn" it, and while the act is still despicable, I at least have a grain of repect for someone with that kind of ability.
As for doing more...why not? If you have the time and the interest, you only stand to make yourself a more valuable asset, and knowledge is power.
I encourage you to not give up just because you think you will always lose, no matter what...that is self defeatist...and that's what hackers want.
EDIT: lol heretic...you type faster!!!
