I'm running Centos 2.6.18-53.1.13.el5 in a VM. Currently I'm studying for my RHCT.I'm trying to enable IP forwarding so I edited this line in the /etc/sysctl.conf:
# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
Then I ran sysctl -p

Can anyone here point me to a walk-through or discussion of how to use Webmin to set up port forwarding/NAT on a dual-NIC Centos 5.3 box? The layout will be simple:
Internet --- NIC1 [CentOS Box] NIC2 --- Switch to other PCs
We have a BUNCH of exposed services that are on special ports -- for example, to connect to one machine, you go in with [IP_Address]:12000, and to connect to another, [IP_Address]:12002, etc., etc. We're currently using OpenSuse 10.3 on this box, and YaST makes this criminally easy (you give it the incoming port number and the destination IP/port numbers and it just works). But OpenSuse 10.3 is nearing EOL, we're buying a new machine, and I'd like to use CentOS on the new one.
I've read the sparse Webmin documentation in their Wiki, and it leads one to believe that you simply insert a "NAT" rule. But there's obviously something they're leaving out. I *am* opening the ports in the firewall. But when I log in to [IP_Address]:port, it just times out. The port forwarding never occurs. The test in this case is SSH, and I know that SSHD is working properly because I can log into that machine just fine from another PC on the same internal subnet.
I been having this problem with the login screen after i enabled it. It shows a little window with the the ubuntu logo with my computer's name underneath with the login button. Clicking the button does nothing but when I hit enter it seems like its booting up but freezes after it says "checking battery [done]" or something like that. is it a problem with the login screen? If so how do I fix it? If not what is the problem?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI ran into this today accidentally turned on networkmanager and it took it upon itself to rewrite some things and proceeded to make any DNS lookups on my server Especially those reverse DNS for SSH and SFTP take so long they would just time out instead of completing.. Disabling networkmanager did not undo the damage either. Short fix, Erase your resolv.conf file and add 2 lines to it as so, your nameservers!
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
save, and run the following commands
service network restart
service httpd restart
service sshd restart
Mine had a search line added by networkmanager and some others, when i reverted it back to as above, almost instantly after restarting the services the systems lookups were once again, lightning fast. DNS lookups were taking upwards of 20 seconds for unknown reasons after this happenned
I'm trying to set up my CentOS 5 box as a gateway for my home network.I've set up dhcp on my internet interface (eth0) and dhcpd on my LAN interface (eth1).I can browse the internet from my CentOS 5 box.I can ping the CentOS 5 box from my LAN.However, I can't browse the internet from my LAN.I've enabled IP forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf and I've disabled my firewall. I've saved these changes and rebooted. Again, no internet browsing from my LAN.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am setting up a new server with 2 nics installed. Nic0 goes to the firewall and nic1 goes to the internal engineering network.
Problem is Ip forwarding is not working!
Particulars:
Server Name - slick
Firewall Name - gateone
engineering node - crooked
Routing on slick:
From crooked ( which is inside the server (slick) with an ip address of xx.xx.221.249 the only way I can ping or anything outside of the firewall ( gateone) is to turn on IPtables with this configuration:
I don't want to use IPtables. I need the ip forwarding to work.
i am forwarding HTTP request to a internal server, it is quiet successful but access logs donot show the ip of the external m/c. Rather it shows the ip of the machine on which i have enabled port forwarding.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently installed Centos 5.4 on a server with 3 network cards. I am trying to enable IP forwarding which has been successful by executing the following command:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I tried to make this permanent by adding net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1 to the /etc/sysctl.conf file.
When I restart the network service I get the following code...
I'm developing a simple TCP server. 99% of incoming connections terminate correctly and the sockets disappear from netstat outputHowever, a few connections hang around for indefinitely in the FIN_WAIT2 state. Now, I know that the clients in this case are misbehaving by not sending a FIN,ACK to close the connection.

I have a C application in which I was happily using stdint.h and other useful things like UINT32_MAX. Now, I am trying to move over to C++. Turns out, C++ does not support C99 and there is no equivalent header file (like climits for limits.h). So is there a way to enable C99 types in C++? Or any other equivalent header files?

It makes it very difficult to use the machine.I have tried two keyboards (both of which work fine on other machines, or on this machine when booted with a live CD). The machine is an Intel i7. Are there any known problems with USB keyboard drivers in CentOS?

I was able to do on Debian and Ubuntu Servers X applications running on remote servers where I was able to login via SSH. Tried the same with CentOS did not worked. in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

My X crashes when I...
1) ssh to a remote centos server using X11 forwarding
2) open the virt-manager remote application (the virtualization management app)
3) Open the remote console
Just to be clear, my local X11 crashes. I get back to the log in screen.
I get in my Xorg log:
Backtrace:
Fatal server error:
-Is this enough for a bug report?
-How I can make X dump a core file for better debugging?
-Do -debug RPM packages still exist, and if so, should I install one for the X server and will this help with debugging, and if so, how do I install it.
I am familiar with linux and have done some managing of servers before. I just tried to install centos 5.5 on a server, but after booting the screen was blank and my monitor said vga mode not supported. I found online to press ctrl+alt+F1, which allows me to see the rest of the boot commands. Then after I was able to see the boot commands it says enabling /etc/fstab swap, but never says ok or gets past that part.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems enabling Wake-on-LAN using ethtool.I'm using ethtool 5.1 on Fedora 8. Ethtool reports that the card supports u,m,b,g for WOL modes. I can run "ethtool -s eth0 wol g", which completes without errors.If I run ethtool again, the Wake-on setting is changed to whatever I just set it to. However, when I actually shutdown the machine, the lights on the NIC don't stay on as they normally should, and any attempts to wake the machine have no effect. The machine dual-boot Windows XP, and I have enabled WOL in the driver there. When I shutdown the machine from XP, everything works just fine. The NIC lights remain on and the machine wakes up properly. So...I think I have my BIOS configured properly, and my WOL utility is working properly.

I've been having an issue for the last day or so. I have an HP Pavilion dv8000 running 10.10. Whenever I boot with the Wireless activated, it will lock about 3-4 seconds into the log-in screen (I'm guessing when it connects to my router). If I have the wireless deactivated (like now), I am able to use the ethernet connection, or (like now) use my phone to tether internet. But, as soon as I click the wireless to active, locks up. The wireless activity light flashes, but that's all.
I'm pretty good about updating whenever I use my laptop, but I think something in the most recent update may have broken my wireless connection.
I used to have no problems with the wifi on my Acer One netbook. After a friend played with the network configurations, the wifi is disabled.
