There are many way to hack a server. I would need to see all the configuration files and get more info about the attack itself

Rami,

I've just downloaded XAMPP myself and it looks like a really good APACHE2/PHP5/MYSQL bundle. You can password protect yourself by accessing this page..
http://yourserver/xampp/xamppsecurity.php <= [allowed only for localhost]
... from your server machine locally.

Good luck!
