Trying to uninstall with the command given in the tutorial, I get this:

Code: [Select]

# sh /usr/local/src/netdata/netdata-uninstaller.sh
sh: /usr/local/src/netdata/netdata-uninstaller.sh: No such file or directory


To whom it may concern: uninstalling netdata is done with the command

Code: [Select]

/usr/libexec/netdata-uninstaller.sh --yes
You will have to answer with yes or just hitting enter on a few deletion questions during the clean-up.

I was not aware of the automated installation of this new service, just started getting e-mails from it. The worse part is that its stats page is fully exposed with no authentication on the url http://yourserverip:19999 - revealing user accounts running, storage paths and so on. Thanks for making user accounts public, now bots can hammer my server with authentication attempts knowing exactly which usernames are valid. 

Go to your vps service provider network firewall and completely block all traffic on netdata port/s.

Because blocking the port is being done from outside the vps, CWP can't enable it again.

DO NOT INSTALL NETDATA under any circumstances; there are much better ways to monitor your server.

Like? What other ways please?

Also what is NetData server requirements? Does that work at small VPS with 2GB ram please?

Locally, munin is what I've been using for around 20 years. It keeps sensitive information at your server, not distributed to a 3rd party.
Externally, just use uptime monitors, such as hetrixtools, nodequery, uptimerobot and any number of other free options available at your favourite search engine.

[I still class 2GB as a medium size VPS (especially with 2 cores); 512MB for VPN and 1GB for a number of static sites. ]
