Someone hacked our NWN server and somehow deleted the module and the NWNX.ini

Are there any security holes in NWN or NWNX that could have allowed that?

Are you 100% sure that it was an attack on nwserver, not on other net services like OS components, HTTP server, SQL server, etc.?

The odds of it being a flaw in NWN or NWNX are still far lower than it being some other service, but just for the sake of completeness, what NWNX plugins are you running, and Windows or Linux? If you don't feel comfortable posting details, send a PM to virusman and/or me.

<Fluffy-Kooshy> NWNx plugin is to this as nuclear warheads are to getting rid of fire ants.

<ThriWork> whenever I hear nwn extender, I think what does NWN need a penis extender for?

OS: Windows

Plugins: ODBC and LetoScript

I also changed the NWNX hook, nobody else knows what it was changed to.

This is a pretty much generic information, you should at least tell what version and service pack you run.

Well, I'm not running it. So that is all I know.

I will attempt to find out.
