Fedora Networking :: Setting Localhost As First Dns?

May 2, 2010

i am trying to use a local DNS service (unbound), and for that, i want each connection (eth0, wlan0) to first use localhost as DNS (127.0.0.1) and then try the DNSs it gets from the DHCP. this is a laptop so it is not just setting it for a single connection but a system default.

i looked and searched and there does not seem to be a straightforward way of doing it. i am usign gnome with networkmanager, and setting the method as "get IP only" is not suitable, as it omits the DHCP-provided DNSs, and also cannot be set as the default method.

Ubuntu Networking :: Setting Up A Localhost-only Squid Server

Jul 16, 2011

I'm going to be going off to college in the fall and the internet probably won't be blazing fast like it is at home, so I was wanting to set my desktop up so that it would act as a local cache of the parts of the internet i frequent the most, but I can't find anything like that. All the tutorials I've found are either for sharing the load on a server or for setting up a separate machine as the squid.

Ubuntu Servers :: Setting Up A Localhost DaviCal Server ?

Aug 12, 2010

Am having trouble setting up a localhost DaviCal server. I've followed the directions here: [url]

And everything seems to be working, but when I go to: [url]

I get the "Not Found" page. How do I tweak this to use it locally from my computer? Have searched and tried to follow various tutorials, but no luck.

What I'm trying to do is setup a CalDav server locally on my computer so I can interface Thunderbird with it. The reason being then I can sync my Android phone with the CalDav server on my computer, thus syncing my Thunderbird calendar with it. Android is great, but currently the only ways to sync your calendar is to go through google's servers (not interested) or use the new CalDav sync software from the market... which is what I'm trying to do.

Fedora Networking :: DNAT To Localhost Not Supported?

Dec 4, 2009

I'm having problems with NX, it's doing strange things, trying to connect to some IP host in timbuktoo because my DNS provider's DNS sucks AND because NX is looking up the host "localhost" without first consulting my hosts file (which nsswitch explicitly tells it to do). THAT's all beside the point.

To work around this apparent bug in NX I tried creating an iptables rule to redirect traffic destin for a certain IP (10.x.x.x) to localhost (127.0.0.1) with the following rule: iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -d 10.x.x.x -j DNAT --to 127.0.0.1. After adding the above rule, my attempts to connect to that host continued to get routed right off into the internet where I DIDN't want them to go. Instead of being redirected to the localhost/loopback address.

It seems DNAT to localhost is not supported? A Google search reveals many other people having this issue but blaming it on everything but iptables. I'm proposing that it's not supported, by design or not, to redirect traffic from a NIC to the loopback network?

Fedora Networking :: Telnet Works Localhost But Not Network / Firewall Disabled

Jun 3, 2011

I'm working on setting up access for our developer via Telnet, we are on a local network behind a physical firewall. I set up the standard Telnet service for Fedora15 and from localhost I can login via any user and root.... However I cannot login from another terminal on the LAN, even though I can ping and FTP to the fedora15 box. I added the firewall rules for telnet, that did not work, so I disabled the firewall, still cannot get a connection via port 25. I feel either port 25 is closed in another manor or the telnet is restricted to the localhost.

Also I cannot login to root to configure the Firewall Desktop GUI, only standard users, is this an issue? I also cannot login to the console as root even though I use the correct password.I can only su to root and sometimes it is a PITA. There must be some settings to clear these issues up...

Server :: Setting Up Local Server Using Localhost?

Mar 18, 2010

I have a need to set up the program TNG - The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding and run it on a local server (not on the Internet) for the purpose of learning the system prior to developing it on an actual website. I was told to use http://localhost on my browser (Mozilla Firefox). I get a message saying "That Works!", but it goes on to say that the contents of the web server have not yet been entered. The instructions for the downloaded files (which I unzipped) said to copy to the web root folder (the folder where the web server is located ?, I guess). But I don't know where it is or how to go about it. Can someone help? I already have MySQL and PHP, which are required to run this program, and I also have Apache installed on my Kubuntu 9.10 system.

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up Home DNS?

Oct 30, 2010

I have been looking and trying to set up DNS on my home setup just for kicks and giggles. I know it is supposed to make resolving web pages faster and I am working in a job where I do networking stuff all the time everything I can learn about networking the better. I know HOW DNS works but I have problems finding a How-to for what I want. I would like to state that my knowledge of Linux is very minimal but I have seen what it can do and want to learn how to use it effectively.

I have a FC10 box acting as a gateway (with DHCP for all systems at home), firewall and windows file server (Samba). I have a comcast modem which leads to the gateway and from there to my other systems.

My coworker helped set it up so I didn't really learn much from it but I have some very basiv skills.What I want to do is enable my server to handle what my ISP provides with DNS, I am NOT looking to host webpages, just the query and storage of the IPs for webpages for faster resolving. Every help and how to I have looked at just talks about setting up DNS for a page to host. I installed BIND already and I would like to configure it to deal with this. Any and all help is appreciated, even links to a How-to that pertains to me would be helpful as I am having no luck with that at the moment.

Networking :: Setting Up A Router In Fedora 10 ?

Jan 27, 2010

Setting up a Linux router in Fedora 10. The router has an IP (192.168.1.1) for the eth0 on the internal LAN and a static registered IP for eth1 on the internet connection. All the internal LAN client PCs have gateway set to 192.168.1.1. My question is what do I set the gateway address to on eth0 and eth1 and how would I configure this in /etc/sysconfig/network?

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up A Bridge With No IP Stack?

Aug 3, 2009

I'm trying to set up a Linux box with three ethernet interfaces as a bridge where I can do some packet filtering. I don't want this box to have any IP stack, packets that are allowed through the filter should be forwarded without changes just the way a switch would do it. I have build a kernel with ethernet support but no IP stack. It detects my interfaces, and I can bring them up with the ifconfig or ip commands. But when I try to start a bridge with brctl I get this error message:

can't setup bridge control: Address family not supported by protocol

A google search for that error message gave me no results at all. The command I used was "brctl addbr br", which does work on a full installation. Does brctl require IP support in the kernel? That would be a bit odd I think, since brctl doesn't do anything IP related, everything it does is at lower layers?

Does anybody know what the above message means, and what I might have been doing wrong?

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up Wireless LAN In 11 (64-bit) (Intel 5100)?

Jul 26, 2009

how to set up wireless networks. The technical language is foreign to me. My notebook maybe described as follows:

Make and Model: SONY VAIO FW490
Processor: Intel� Core™ 2 Duo Processor P8700 (2.53GHz)
RAM: 4GB DDR2-SDRAM
Graphics card: ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD4650 graphics card with 512MB vRAM.

[code]....

It came pre-installed with Windows Vista Home Premium but now I have Fedora 11 (w/ Gnome) as the only OS. The router that I am using with an Ethernet cable connected to my laptop is a Netgear 54Mbps Wireless Router WGR614 v7 connected to a Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem. Both worked right out of the box and now I have wired Internet access. RCN is my ISP. I would like to avoid using the Ethernet cable connecting my laptop to the router.

This is what I have done so far:

1. Gone to System>Administration>Network

2. Clicked "New" then chose "Wireless connection" from the list

3. Chose Intel Corp. Wireless WiFi Link 5100 (wlan0) from list. The other option was "Other Wireless Card".

I don't know what to do after this. What should I choose in the windows entitled "Configure Wireless Connection" and "Configure Network Settings" ? I chose Ad-Hoc for mode and entered an SSID name even though I have no explanation for taking these actions. As for the other settings, I simply went with whatever was already selected. At the moment, I lose Internet access when I disconnect the Ethernet cable. I see other wireless networks when I click the network icon on the top right corner of the screen. I don't know how to make my router appear on that list if that's necessary.

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up Static IP And Vnc Viewer Behind A Router

Oct 19, 2010

I have an old pc that I would like to use as a headless server for my music, files, etc that I can access at work and other places outside of my network. I'm a complete noob in this department so please excuse my overwhelming ignorance. The only thing I've managed to succeed at was installing fedora 13. Two things in particular are giving me trouble: 1.)setting up my router and fedora box so that it has a static ip address and 2.)connecting to the fedora box via vncviewer on my laptop.

HERE ARE SOME QUICK SPECS THE DEVICES INVOVLED:
Fedora Box: Intel Pentium 4 2.66GHz, 1GB ram, Fedora 13
Laptop: Toshiba Satellite A505, Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 2.20GHz, 4GB ram, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Router: D-Link WBR-1310
ISP: Comcast (cable)

HERE'S WHAT I'VE DONE SO FAR:
Setting Static IP
On the fedora 13 box:
1.)Went to Network Connections and added a new connection
2.)Copied mac address from the default connection
3.)On IPv4 tab, added new address: 192.168.0.200 (this is out of the range which my router will assign automatically) netmask 255.255.255.0, set gateway to 198.168.0.1(router's ip on the network)

When I connect to this new connection web pages don't load, etc. but when I'm on the default connection I have no problems.

Connecting With Vnc Viewer
On the fedora 13 box:
1.)System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
2.)Under Sharing I checked "Allow other users to view your desktop" and "Allow other users to control your desktop"
3.)Under Security I unchecked "Ask you for confirmation", checked "Require the user to enter this password", and specified a password

On the router
1.)Set up port forwarding for port 5900, TCP only, to the ip address of the fedora box.

On the laptop
1.)Installed VNCViewer
2.)Went to whatsmyip(dot)org to get ip address of router
3.)Tried to connect to that address, port 5900 (ex. ##.##.##.###::5900)
4.)Connection times out everytime.

I can successfully ping to 192.168.1.100. I can share from this PC with SAMBA.

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up F10 For Wireless Connection (Ralink RT2870)?

Apr 20, 2009

I have recently installed Fedora 10 onto my PC, dual booting with XP, and I am fairly new to linux. I have been trying to connect to my wireless network, but cannot even get Fedora to recognise my wireless adapter (Belkin N1 +MIMO). I have tried to follow a few tutorials that go through either the ndiswrapper method or by using native drivers. Because I don't have an internet connection on Fedora, I have to boot into XP to download the files for either ndiswrapper or the native drivers, rather than installing using the terminal.I downloaded the ndiswrapper RPM, and it failed because of an 'unexpected error', and when using the tarball, it could not find the makefile. The native drivers did not install because of unresolved dependencies.

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up Linksys WMP54G Wireless Card

I just installed Fedora again, after a long absence. I have been using XP. I am having issues setting up my wireless card Linksys WMP54G. For some reason the card has been recognized, and the interface is there. But I have tried every walk-trough known to Google, and it still won't work. I have been using the GUI tools, but they don't work. I have also been using the command line walk through, and they aren't working either. Does anyone know which files I need to set and what the process would be?

Fedora Networking :: Setting Up A Vlan Network And After Reading Several Man Pages?

Sep 8, 2010

I'm currently setting up a vlan network and after reading several man pages I still have 2 questions / problems:

1. I would want to put several subnets into one vlan.Meaning for example, I want to have the following Vlans with subnets:

vlan1 10.1.1.0/24
vlan2 10.1.2.0/24
vlan3 10.1.3.0/24
vlan3 10.1.4.0/24
vlan3 10.1.5.0/24

Is that possible?

EDIT: I found a sample configuration, sadly without any comments, where there are defined some interfaces named vlan1:0 trough vlan1:3. Could that be the option I've been looking for.However in the definition of the vlan1 device it is configured with the subnetmask 255.0.0.0 . I would like to know the mechanics of that option, too.

2. In the wlan part of the network I want to have a dhcp server distributing ip addresses. However I want hosts the server 'knows' (by mac address) to be in a different vlan than those unknown. Is there any way to achieve that? If yes, do I need special wlan access points or can I do it by my configurable switch or by the server?

For times when the free DNS nameserver is 'closed' (often lol) I use localhost and can see/work on my site. Suddenly, when I type localhost into the address bar, I get a blank page, nothing! I'm not sure what to do....can someone please help because am going to use my website to present a class project, and was going to use localhost (bring my computer) in case the nameserver was down, I have to be able to display it.

Ubuntu Networking :: Localhost Pointing To 192.168.0.1 Instead Of 127.0.0.1?

Apr 26, 2011

When i try to connect to MySQL database with MySQL Workbench using root@localhost i get following message: Failed to Connect to MySQL at localhost:3306 with user root

Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.0.1' (using pasword: YES) which is ok, becouse 192.168.0.1 is not listed as a host from which MySQL server should accept connections.

I am a little confused, becouse i tell MySQL Workbench to connect using localhost, so server should (at least i think so) receive connection from 127.0.0.1

I think i had similar issue with PostgreSQL some time ago, but i just allowed connections from 192.168.0.1 then.

My host file is:
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
#::1 ent-pc localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
127.0.0.1 ent-pc

Fedora Networking :: Samba And Network Manager In 9 - Setting Up A Wired Connection?

Feb 3, 2009

I have 2 workstations that I'm trying to network together so that I can backup each to the other. One is XP sp2 and the other Fedora 9. Since installing Samba on the Fedora box and trying to get it configured, I have a problem that Add/remove programs won't do installs because it says there's no connection to a network. Network Manager says there aren't any connections, but it worked before the Samba install. Mozilla and Thunderbird can access the internet OK. Both workstations are connected by cable to my router and thus to my ISP (DNS server).

Two questions:- where can I find hints on setting up a wired connection (which card's MAC address does it want? router or wrkstn?) and Am I right that Add/remove is stuffed because of Network Manager?I now have Samba working from Linux to XP, but still can't get into Linux from XP. I tried the Linux PC's MAC address and set up a wired connection in Network Manager. NM still thinks there isn't one...

Ubuntu Networking :: Access Web Server On Localhost?

May 27, 2010

I have a laptop with Apache, MySQL, PHP, etc, and I'm able to work on web programming on my local server while at home, connected to my network. But I would like to be able to work on the local websites when I'm not connected to any networks, both for demonstrating a site, or simply working on it.

I was surprised to find that I could not connect to localhost at all without a network connection. I tried my normal Google for a solution, but, of course, that was futile without a network.

Now, I'm at home, and of course, it works because I have wireless. I don't really want to disconnect that to figure it out, so I thought maybe some nice soul here might know how to do this. Surely it can't be hard, can it? But, it's certainly not obvious.
