Hey folks, I telnet into my box last after reading the default password on the box is blank. I set a password using a randomly generated string from lastpass,
I was able to cd through the directories, log in and out, everything was working fine.
Today I went to FTP some downloaded video files into /media/hdd/movie as I have done countless time over the last year and half since ive had the box. I wasnt able to acccess the directory, afaik root isnt allowed FTP on linux ??
anyway cut long story short, I can not log back into my duo via telnet or ssh, Im getting authentication error, its like I had an intruder and they changed the root password when they saw I had set one up. Then about 4 pm today, my entire /media/hdd/movie and sub directories with nearly 200gb of files were deleted, and my settings and image backups were deleted.
Sounds like I had an intruder with access to the box, frighting, I just hope they haven't been able to island hop on my network, I have quite a few devices on the network, windows and linux, all up to date tho.
Any thoughts, is a clean reflash the only way I can reset the root password, Id like to get into the box before wiping to investigate any logs
