Quarantine directory does not exist [solved]

Post by go4rit »

Hi peeps,

I'll start asking a bit of patience from you. I'm a newbie to CXS and
rather a freshman when it comes to servers...

After being stung by hackers, we had our hosting provider install CXS on our server.

I've configured as much as I could however I keep on getting this email

*******************
/etc/cron.daily/cxsdaily[dot]sh:

Quarantine directory does not exist: [/home/quarantine]
*******************

I've manually created the quarantine dir at server level, chmod it to 1777 as I found on another thread somewhere, uid/gid are root/root but I'm still getting the same notice.

Any hints/suggestions?

Thank you very much for your help!

Marco

UPDATE: found the solution :)

sawbuck I'm still laughing if I think about it.

I created quarantine folder at root level whereas the alert clearly states the dir should sit in /home

It was right in front of me and I couldn't see it.

Doh!
