High cpu from nobody httpd problem

[WebHostPro]

Hello,

In my "Todays CPU Usage" I have this:

nobody 95.67 0.00 0.0
Top Process %CPU 95.7 [httpd]

It's causing high loads on the server.

I have ran chroot and rk hunter all is clean.

I checked tmp folders and clean.

I don't have PHP suEXEC Support on this servr so I can't see what user is doing this.

Apache error log is clean, access and seux log is clean.

Hmmm any thoughts?

Did a search for wget strings and nothing.

Also it shows as perl in top.

Also it shows as perl in top.

Hello,

Did you check the exim main log?

May be it is a mail script. Please disable the option to send mail as user "nobody".
Let me know the status.

Thanks,

I just killed the process and set up the monitor in case it happens again. The server only has about 50 people on it so it was most likly a mistake or fluke. These are the guys who can't run on PHP suEXEC

Thanks again,
