Fedora Networking :: Cannot Ssh Into Remote System?
Jun 4, 2009
I have a computer that i set up for a friend, and tried to ssh into it for her to update it and add do maintenance for her, so that she doesn't get aggravated with trying to do it herself, but ssh hangs and times out. The firewall is set to allow ssh, and eth* is set as trusted by the firewall, and i have the correct ip, and the ssh service is running.
I can connect to my home computer from hers, which is setup the same way (in this regard), but not vice versa. She has no router; she is directly connected to the DSL modem.

I have installed a bioinformatics tool called Pathway Tools on ubuntu 10.10, and I'm trying to access it through ssh client from windows vista client system. my client is puTTY. I can run the terminal shell, and I log in and everything goes alright. However, when I run the program by typing the following:pathway-tools from the directory of the tool. just like I'm running it from ubuntu directly. I get the following message:
Code:
aibig@aibig-HP-xw4400-Workstation:~/pathway-tools$ ./pathway-tools
Warning: Constant **&-TAG-MAPPING-LIST** being redefined from
(("alpha" SYMBOL T "a") ("beta" SYMBOL T "b")
("gamma" SYMBOL T "g") ("delta" SYMBOL T "d")
("epsilon" SYMBOL T "e") ("zeta" SYMBOL T "z")
[Code]...
Enter name of X-window server to connect to (of the form HOST:N.M): You can ignore all the warnings, all my problem is at the last line. I searched the internet to know what does they mean by HOST:N.M value the shell requests, but in vain. I'm really a newbie to ubuntu, but I'm getting familiar day by day and I'm loving it.

Attempting to create a backup script to copy files from one file system to a remote file system.
When I try this I get:
Quote:
# tar -cf - /mnt/raid_md1 | gzip -c | ssh -i ~/.ssh/key -l user@192.168.1.1 "cat > /mnt/backup/fileserver.md1.tar.gz"
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
ssh: Could not resolve hostname cat > /mnt/backup/fileserver.md1.tar.gz: Name or service not known
[Code].....
I know that the remote file system dir is RW and the access is working fine. I am stumped...

The code listed below is an excerpt from a script that I am writing. The goal is to verify that a directory on a remote server is available to the local system. If that is not the case, a log file is written, and all filesystems that were previous unmounted, are remounted on the local system.
Code:
# # Unmount all NFS mounts prior to the archive process.
umount -a -t nfs
# Mount the remote directory (NFS) prior to running the make_net_recovery script.
# Make sure there is a <remote server> folder located in the /mnt directory. If it is
# not already there, create one.
mount <remote server>:/<local system> /mnt/<remote server>
# Verify the remote directory (NFS) is available. This directory is needed
# as it is the destination for the iso images. If it is not available, stop
# here, and write the results to a log file.
df |grep <remote server> > /dev/null
RC=$?
echo $RC
if [ ${RC} -eq 0 ]
then
echo successful
else
echo not successful >> /tmp/make_net_backup.log && mount -a
exit
fi
Is the syntax shown above correct?

My company blocked port 22/23 for telnet and SSH which would have been quite nice to access my box at home.I found a page on the net (URL...) which works perfectly fine, but due a demo version stops after 20 seconds.Does anybody know a similar page or any other way I could remote access my PC?

I've been able to use connect to my home laptop from school using VNC (and the Remote Desktop Connection program in f10), but since the graphics take forever to stream, it's almost pointless to use it.Is there any way to connect to my home computer, and ONLY get a Terminal?I've googled around and haven't found a concise way to do this... i'm so confused about how this stuff works (esp how it relates to SSH)

New Fedora 13 Install. I have Remote Desktop Enabled. I can access the machine from itself but not others on the network. I stopped the firewall, that did not work. I looked in hosts.allow and hosts.deny, no entries there. The vino server is running. There is nothing in /varlog/messages, dmesg or /var/log/secure, at least nothing I could find related to vino. What else can I check? The conf file in my home folder looks exactly like one on another machine where it is working. forgot to add the message I get when I try it from a remote machine is "The connection to host 192.168.1.100 was closed". So it appears something is actively rejecting the login.

We have a fedora 10 server that the company connects to with other computers in the office. The file everyone access, public_share has no restrictions to the people that use it. We have another file, art_share that is password protected and everytime someone wants to access it they must login with it, but there are only 3 people out of the 15 that need to access it. Everyone needs to access public_share at some time.
My question is: is there a way to limit the permission for certain remote users to public_share so that they cannot write or execute, but at the same time allowing others full permission? I tried to do use chmod, but then it changes everyone's permission (I assume because of the remote access).

I'm trying to set up the Remote Desktop and am not getting anywhere. No matter what I do it seems that I'm only able to set it up to be viewable locally, over the local intranet. Do I need to open specific ports on a router? If so, what ports? Is there anything else I need to configure?

I'm trying to implement remote NFS in our network
So I read a lot of posts on the Internet, but I don't understand which ports I have
to open/forward for this.
On some posts I see a lot of ports, I don't want to do this.
If this is the case, and I would set up NFS through an ssh tunnel, then do I only need the ssh port and does this mean it will always work if the server is reachable through ssh?
Or is this wishful thinking ?

I have a box (boell) running Fedora 10 sitting behind a firewall at school. I am able to freely ssh to and from this box to other computers (minion) within that lan. Outside of this network I cannot directly ssh to boell - I must ssh first to minion, then I can ssh to boell. I've spoken with the sysadmin and he's verified that the firewall permits ssh freely - i haven't had any issues like this with other boxes of mine there, so this isn't any surprise.
I have verified that the hosts.deny file is blank, iptables permits ports 22 (and 80) and I didn't see anything obvious in the sshd_config. I tried a tcp dump on the external host and boell while attempting to ssh from the former to boell. The packets appear to be acknowledged by boell, but this fails to lead to a connection. I've tried this process with external hosts in different locations with the same result. I have made few modifications to the default installation for F10, so perhaps there is some default somewhere I have to change. In any case, below I have attached excerpts of germane files.
======== ssh from boell =======
[root@boell log]# ssh -vvv 71.189.5.67

I've recently installed OpenVPN on my dedicated server (Fedora) in order to have full internet access for all of my WinXP clients. In case somebody is interested in the details of the OpenVPN installation, I followed this documentation: Rootserver-as-OpenVPN-Gateway. The installation runs quire nicely, I'm able to surf the net and even file-sharing programs work on the XP clients - at least to some extent. There is a slight problem though: the file-sharing programs complain that they have a "NAT problem" or that they are "Firewalled".
Most likely, this problem can be addressed by configuring remote port forwarding (RPF) on the server. The only routing rules which I've added on the server during the OpenVPN installation are these:
Code:
# initialize natting for openvpn
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 10.66.66.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
Let's assume a certain application on a client is listening on e.g. port 1234. How do I configure RPF for this port on the server side.

I am using VNC to login to remote machine (vncserver). My question is; How can I login to remote machine (vncserver) through VNC client, without having to login to vncserver first physical. For better explanation here is an example: If john wnat to login to vncserver remotely first he has to login the vncserver physically then he can login remotely.

This is a strange problem, 2 Fedora 11 machines, both Dell's. On machine A, remote desktop is okay. On Machine B, remote desktop display is corrupt/unusable.
However, prior to upgrading to Fedora 11, both machines had Fedora 10, and, remote desktop on Machine A was corrupt and Machine B was okay.
Any idea what happened? Why did the upgrade fix one and break the other? Both machines where upgraded with Pre-upgrade. The two machines are in to separate locations, un-related to each other.

I am a Linux newbie. I am trying to see if it is possible to access a windows pc through some form of vpn/rdp setup. My machine is dual boot with Windows XP. On Windows XP, I am able to connect to my office via VPN client to connect to my office, then Remote Desktop to my local machine on the network.. Is there some way for me to do this with Linux? I find it really annoying to have to boot to Windows just to access my work pc.

I want to mount a remote drive on bootup. I'm using FC14 and remote machine is FreeBSD. I've written a shell script to mount it. The script contains only one line:
Code:
mount 192.168.1.33:/home/user7 /media/mc33
I've to run this script from superuser mode to mount the file system(it works). So to mount it at bootup, I added the shell script to my PATH (/home/me/bin) and added it to Menu->System->Preferences->Startup Applications. Well this doesn't work because the root privileges are not present. I tried fixing it by giving root privileges to my shell script
Code:
#chmod +s mount-mc33
but it made no difference.

Most discussion of lightweight desktops seems to focus on cpu and/or gpu load. I want to ask a different question (though it may have the same solution): how to set up a secure remote desktop server for students to minimise network load. My current setup (gnome plus vncserver, tunneled over ssh) is certainly a bad choice, but I'm having trouble finding the right information about what to choose. My current best guesses:LXDE (not too unfamilar to students used to gnome)NX (generally said to give better compression) Is this a reasonable compromise? Is there a better solution? host server settings to reduce network load client settings the students could use to minimise network load security implications of distributing the nx ssh session key widely

What I'm trying to do at this point is setup VNC so I can remote into the system via my windows xp systems. I have VNC installed on those computer and I was able to get GNOME's remote desktop operating when I log in on level 5 and actually logged into my user account. However, when I'm not logged in on level 5 it will reject connections entirely. Ultimately I want to remote into the system using tightVNC and view the level 3 (command line only) thing, and allow me to telinit - 5 to switch to gui if I need it from VNC on the windows system. This way I don't need a monitor, keyboard and mouse plugged into the server. Right now that's what I'm having to do.
The problem is that it doesn't run in level 3 at all and level 5 (gui mode) doesn't work if i'm not logged into an account. So how can I get this to work at as a constant running server no matter what level and login point i'm at? Ultimately for this Linux admin class I have to setup a working server and I figured I'd get a base setup with VNC support that I could log into from school to work off of instead of having to use the local connection. Once I get VNC working on my network i'm pretty sure I can get it working beyond my local network.
Here's some commandline stuff that may diagnose my issues:
Code:
As you can see I'm having issues with the libstdc++ lib being detected. I have it installed, but apparently not everything is setup properly. I also have an RPM file for VNC and I've tried to install it with the gnome shell but it gives me an error: "Can't install /home/[user]/Download/vnc-4_1_3-x86_linux.rpm as no transaction" I'm not sure what that means. When I use the command line I get this:

My home linux box is behind a Linksys WRT110 router. I have enabled the Remote Desktop from System-->Preferences-->Remote Desktop. I then run TightVNC from my WinXP box. As I wish to run a secure connection, my first obstacle comes from PuTTY.
In PuTTY, my settings are as follows:
Host Name(or IP address) Port
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 22
SSH-->Tunnels:

I recieve "Network error: Connection refused" I have gleened all of this information from other boards and tutorials. I know there is something critical that I am missing.

I have recently installed fedora 14 and configured vpn to access my work network. I need to access some windows machines which although I can ping I cannot remote desktop into. When I go to Applications>Internet> Remote Desktop Viewer and put in the machine name (either just the machine name or the FQDN including the domain name) I get an error "Connection to <machinename> was closed".
