Hi Pasqi,

I would be trying to get to the server physically, ideally.
Try a reboot from the admin httpd interface and if neither service comes up 
then you will need to get to the box.
You may have been hacked, if so BTW only discuss it in the security list 
and not developers or users.
If you have been hacked and you need to get in bring up a Linux box. I have 
used RH6.2 to do this, rip out the hard drive from the RAQ and mount it on 
the new linux box, and replace the affected files from a spare copy. If you 
need them ask I will send them directly.  All told a typical root kit 
affects about 10 to twenty files with hacks in the rc.local or other init 
scripts.
Usually they replace login with a fake one that captures all passwords.
Ensure a pw roll for all users and root.
The other solution is the OS restore CD which in the end you very well may 
have to do that as well.  But the solution I stated above should at least 
allow access to the data required and most importantly the log files if the 
hacker did not edit them.
BTW take it off the real WWW while doing the maintenance.

Good luck and good hunting.
