Google helps in Simple Hack to other’s server – Munin

Wanted to learn how much CPU or memory other servers utilize? For your own server you can always do some linux command to get it.

Use Top, uptime, free -m. But how to see other server details, use one command Google (this query will show you different people using munins for server monitoring).

Some of the examples :-

  1. http://munin.linefeed.org/
  2. http://monitoring.medias-cite.org/munin/index.html
  3. https://munin.sioban.net/

It is advisable to make munin directory password protected (as you do not want to shell out any information about your server).

  1. Ha Ha, Do not blame Google for that. Look at Google’s guidelines, you should tell the bot what not to do.

  2. Google (search engines) comes with a list of extra risk. You can find any crack easily. WIth google it would have been really difficult. Matt rightly said that we still can’t blame Google for it.
