Fedora Servers :: VPN Installation - Outside / Inside Interface?

Fedora Servers :: Nagios Web Interface Setup

Jul 25, 2010

I'm trying to setup nagios, and I've looked at several guides but none of them seem to address my problem.Here's the clearest guide that I followed URl...I followed all the instructions on that basica guide, except disabling SELinux. I changed SELinux rules based on URL...I'm not getting any AVC Denials, so that's not the problem. Nagios and Apache both start fine. If I go to my local IP, I get the standard Apache test page. URl...(address from all the guides I read) doesn't resolve.I know that Nagios is at least running from "service nagios status," and I have gotten two alerts emailed to me: swap alert (I don't have swap configured) and disk space.

Fedora Installation :: Putting /boot Inside LVM With Grub2?

May 22, 2011

I have just converted from using Arch Linux for the last year to using Fedora 14. So far I have been having a blast but I really enjoy the idea of putting /boot inside an LVM container and that is how I had my Arch system built. So I wanted to do a learning experience and did a standard install on my 60GB SSD. Which ended up with a 500MB /boot outside LVM, a ~30GB / and ~30GB /home inside LVM. Now I really like spreading things out onto different LV's that I can resize but for now I am focusing on getting /boot and grub2 working. So after the install I did a complete backup with Clonezilla to a spare drive and set to work. I shrunk /home's LV to 10GB to give me plenty of space to work with and created boot_lv inside LVM at 128MB.

So here is my first question:After 2 hours trolling through the forums, documentation and blogs I believe that the ideal size for any /boot is 512MB due to during pre-upgrades Fedora loads a bunch of data to /boot. Would I be correct in both assuming this size and the reasoning behind this?After creating this LV I did another Clonezilla clone of the drive and got back into the Fedora install. From their I moved over all the data in /boot to my boot_lv mounted on /mnt/newboot and unmounted /boot. Then mounted /boot_lv in its place and installed grub2 and gettext ( <--- I think? It needed something like this) and did a grub2-install, grub2-mkconfig and grub2-setup all with commands I do not remember nor documented due to how many changes I have made and times I had to re-image the box from messup's and failures. So in the end can anyone point me in the direction of a nice guide on putting Fedora 14 completely in LVM which seems not to exist in Google and Fedora Forums ( to my knowledge.) Even a set of commands for taking a fresh install and doing.

EDIT: Today I managed to get Debian 6 to have /boot moved into LVM no problem. I documented it very well and plan to implement it on Fedora which I do greatly hope it works.EDIT 2: SUCCESS!!! Took me all weekend to get it working in Fedora but it bloody works! My notes are not the best so I am imaging it right now and am going through step by step again tomorrow and documenting it all on my laptop and writing a tutorial for the Guides section of this forum. It's kinda funny that the only thing holding me back was something rather stupid

Ubuntu Servers :: FTP Access Inside Local Network Only?

Jun 8, 2011

I've been researching this all day with no luck thus far. Basically I need to cutoff port 21/ftp access from IP addresses outside of my local network. My local IP range is something like 192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.150 -- so anything outside of this range would automatically be blocked.

Any IP address outside of this range would be denied as I use SFTP for remote access, etc. from home, etc.

I've researched IP tables, tcp wrappers, etc. but am still unsure which would be best for what is probably a simple fix.

Relevant info: Vsftpd via Ubuntu Server 10.10

Ubuntu Servers :: Su As Backup User Inside Of Bash Script - Lock And Flush Tables On A Mysql Db

Jan 23, 2010

I am attempting to write a backup script that will do the following:

1) lock and flush tables on a mysql db
2) dump the db to a file
3) unlock the tables
4) rsync the file to offsite storage

It all seems to be going well. However, obviously I don't want to setup ssh to the storage server on another network as the root user without a password. so I am attempting to su as the backup user inside of the script but when I try to run the script everything happens as it should until I try to so.. then it jumps out of the script .. akss me to login as the backup user.. proceeds to rsync to the offsite storage it does all this and then resumes execiting the script. it is not going to be setup as a cron job. it will be executed manually. assuming that is the case, how can I get the script to run without prompting for a password?

Here is what I've come up with so far... assuming that the script is run as root and the identity of the backup user will need to be assumed inside the script without perstering the user to enter the backup user's password.

Ubuntu Servers :: Setting Up 2nd Interface?

Jul 15, 2010

I am having trouble setting up my second network interface on Ubuntu Server 10.04. When setting up the machine it did detect both cards but I only picked one to configure, and now I want to setup the second.

I went into /etc/interfaces and basically copied the settings for eth0 but changed the IP and the name to eth1. I then restarted.

Quite honestly it might be working! But when I run ifconfig -a I see no packets I see

Quote:

eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0e:0c:59:af:c4
inet addr:192.168.4.21 Bcast:192.168.4.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

[Code].....

isn't that what "UP BROADCAST...." line means?

So perhaps my question is how do I test my 2nd interface? I tried using the 2nd IP with Putty (which is how I usually work on the machine) and couldn't connect.

Ubuntu Servers :: Ssh Restrictions Per Interface ?

Aug 20, 2010

I have a server with two active network interfaces. On one, I need ssh open for all users (it's running LTSP, and as I learned the hard way today, blocking ssh kills LDM access).

On the other interface (which connects to the rest of the network), I only want to allow a few administrative users to connnect.

Is there a way to do this cleanly using sshd_config or PAM? I don't want to do something hacky like running dropbear.

Ubuntu Servers :: Network Interface Not Found?

May 9, 2011

Alright, here's the problem: I have a server going that was running 10.10, then upgraded to 11.04 with no problems, but when I reinstalled 9.04 (so i could muck around with GNUPanel), the install couldn't find the ethernet on the motherboard (which I had no problems with on 10.10 or 11.04). I'm a bit of a newb, but it seems to me that something is very wrong here because I can't get online. All of the other computers in my house are unaffected, so I think I can narrow it down to the device not being recognized, but beyond that, I'm lost.

However, I would like to have a browser based interface for managing things, such as installing a phpBB forum and stuff like that.

Ubuntu Servers :: Server 10.04, One Interface Not Brought Up On Boot?

Jan 7, 2011

I'm having an odd problem with Server 10.04. I have two interfaces but only one interface is brought up on boot - and it's not always the same interface. Usually eth0 fails and eth1 comes up fine, but sometimes eth1 fails and eth0 comes up. I'm using the same config that was previously used on Server 8.04, but never had this problem on 8.04.

/etc/network/interfaces:

Code:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback[code]....

Once the system has booted, if I run /etc/init.d/networking restart, then both interfaces come up fine. However, having read that this is now an upstart, I also tried service networking restart, but get:

Code:
restart: Unknown instance:
Don't know if that's significant or not.

Cannot find a single problem with networking reported in log files, other than bound services failing to start as a result of the interface not being up (dansguardian, squid, dhcp which are all bound to eth0, and therefore fail when eth0 doesn't come up. And when eth1 doesn't come up, the only process that fails to run is clamav-freshclam). Although at one point I did see something about interfaces being renamed which seemed a little odd.

I could just have networking restarted automatically once booted, but this obviously isn't a solution to whatever is causing the problem. There is quite a bit running on the server: Samba/LDAP domain controller with roaming profiles, squid & dansguardian with LDAP auth, postfix & dovecot with LDAP auth, mailscanner, dhcp & ddns, strict iptables policy with nat... so I'm not sure if any of those could have any bearing on interfaces?

Ubuntu Servers :: No Longer Access Interface - Get Shutdown

Apr 12, 2011

2011-04-11 11:57:03 UTC I don't know what happening with my centralized log-server running octopussy. Currently it is working in a vmware setup with approx 980 Mb ram and is set in bridge mode. Currently is it set to receive logs from logs devices which are 4 in number one of which includes the core isg-1000 device. This setup is still in its test form....now what happens after some time (sometimes it taken days and sometimes just hours) when the connection (https) is suddenly lost to the apache and i can no longer access the interface. What happens more strangely my Ethernet interface gets shutdown on ubuntu. I have to restart the services by issuing /etc/init.d/networking restart.

Even at times it itself start receiving network packets on its own; without even restarting; i don't what the hell is wrong with the server. I cannot understand its erratic behavior. I need a sound and reliable Ethernet connectivity at all times because coz of loss of connectivity in my case would mean loss of logging functionality. I dnt want any time-gap in logging ...as im currently logging some highly critical devices on this server.

Fedora Networking :: Different Routing From Inside And Outside?

Feb 20, 2010

IN LAN default GW box I have a routing rule of 172.17.1.0 192.168.180.100 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth3 that sends packets matching 172.17.1.0/24 to eth3 etc. When I ping 172.17.1.50 - it goes correctly when ping is issued in the same box (LAN GW) - falls through to default rule when the ping is done in LAN's boxes i.e. it goes to the LAN GW box and then to Internet incorrectly instead of going to eth3 and 192.168.180.100.

Is there any way of seeing why the packet matches or not the routing rules?

Ubuntu Installation :: Gnome-shell On 10.04 Beta Inside Virtualbox

Apr 12, 2010

I have installed VirtualBox because I want to test out things like 10.04 and gnome-shell. So, I have downloaded an Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit .vdi from mininova (and so far I'm assuming that the downloaded file is good), and I've been tooling around with it a bit. It was a bit choppy at times, but that was probably because I was running several other things at the same time. My comp's stats are in my sig (only addressing 2.9 gigs of ram due to the 32-bit kernel), and I think that any choppiness was due to overloading the computer with other things. The proc temp also went to record highs, ~75 Celsius, iirc. The vm has been alloted 1 proc (out of 2) 512 ram. The problem I am having is that I wanted to install gnome-shell to try it out, but I get an error,
