In practice, it would come down to the individual factors and circumstances, as to whether you would end up charged in court.

 

What is your technical skill level? If you're a professional IT Admin, they'll expect better security out of you. If you're some idiot know-it-all high school student, they will expect less.

 

It also depends on the type of service. No one is gonna get charged because their home PC was taken over by a Bot Net and used as part of a DDoS. However, if you have a hosted server w/ huge internet resources (Like 1Gbps WAN connection), and you intentionally disable security on that server? Then yes, you could be held liable.

 

 

So you guys are BOTH right AND wrong. There could certainly be some liability, and intentionally disabling the security could certainly increase that liability.

 

But your average person is NOT gonna get taken to court over being a host to part of a DDoS attack because their home network was compromised. It all depends on the context.

Thanks for good reply. After this thread I did lot of security stuff. The user which run the server for minecraft have no sudo permission and no permissions roles. Yes it is hosted in a Data Center with 1Gbit internet.

This thread is a bit rediculous.

 

Desktop CPU's are actually better for games due to the higher frequency - depending on the kernel tuning of the OS.

As far as DDoS - what does this have to do with the OP's question? If hes running a basic Minecraft server, then unless hes running some sort of vulnerable script like SSH2, or has open database vulnerabilities, etc...then I don't know what this has to do with the thread?

 

As far as utilizing multiple Ip addresses, for a webserver you should probably use Apache or Nginx (like Apache but supports reverse proxy), which you can configure with Virtual Hosts for your various websites. You can find information here on how your config should look: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/vhosts/ip-based.html

 

Generally on Ubuntu once you install/configure Apache, you navigate into /etc/httpd and there should be a sites-available folder. You will see some conf's in there. You just make a conf for each site, then use the command 'sudo a2ensite <configname>' to enable the site.

 

The Minecraft server should have a config option to define the listening IP address. Generally you can use 0.0.0.0 if you want it to listen on all available IP addresses on the machine.

Ya That was the reason for picking this cpu because it has higher frequency which means less lag.

Not running any useless scripts, I only run software that I need to run.

 

Ya I found out how to config ips and use them for apache and minecraft yes it did have 0.0.0.0 which I put one of the ip and running 2 servers with different ip and not different port.
