vB TOP for linux dedicated servers · **Released**: 06-03-2004

Dr Erwin Loh's TOP for vB3 version 1.0

Dedicated server admins running vBulletins will know the importance of monitoring the TOP stats on your linux machine.

However, telnet or SSH access is not always available - e.g. when you are work or behind a firewall.

I've made a quick php script, that allows you to quickly view total number of users (members + guests) online, total httpd and mysql processes, and your top stats, all via a web page. It's coded so that only Admins (who have access to your Admin CP) can view this page. It uses your forum permissions, so you can change the code to allow only your userid to view it.

I've purposely made it sparse and clean, so that no bandwidth is wasted when viewing this page.

The file is top.php - just upload it to your forums directory, and view it.

Keep refreshing it to view your TOP stats in realtime. I didn't put in an auto-refresh as that can be annoying.

Enjoy! I know it's useful for me when I'm at work!

Color? I should have made it with a black background like in SSH, to make it "authentic".

yes, I'm on dedicated ... but what make the site different? because the site is one child on the server, just the same as any other site. I mean how the site permission should be, to be consider dedicated

Mmm... does the owner of your forum files have permission to SSH? There is no jailshell happening?

gotcha.

Having a dedicated server doesnt mean your website can ssh, doesnt mean the forum user have this permisision either.

that's too much security risk for me

so I disable all site's ssh/telnet permission.

idea, making the file's owner .... root or some user who can ssh, and put it in some secret area that safemod off

, maybe it'd work, right?
