I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.04 to provide DHCP and Internet Sharing on my home LAN. In a previous configuration, I was running Fedora + AMAHI to provide the same services. As most of my linux devices are Ubuntu, I decided to decommission and rebuild my server. I've been able to configure all of my services with the exception of one. As a rule, I assign static IP or reservations based on MAC address's for any of my network devices or appliances.
One cool feature that AMAHI provided a GUI for, was the ability to recognize devices by name as well as IP. i.e.. "http://192.168.1.50" or "http://home-NAS" Going from memory, the long name upon first entry may actually have been "http://home-NAS.adomainname.com"? From my reading, I think I either need to setup up a Static Alias or CNAME for each assigned IP. I can't find any tutorial's that will walk me through this process. I'm guessing I need to generate the records under one of the master DNS zones, but that is just a guess?
my mail server [URL] is hosted abc@[URL] is a pop id below are alias:

Im creating a PHP application for my company. The application its going to be used by around 500 people in the network. I've always used Windows Server for my PHP applications, but I want to start using linux. I've heard its faster and more secure.
I want to knwo, what type of computer should I use? Is does linux work better on Intel Xeon or AMD? I need the application to work fast.
Am I going to have any problems with incompatibility if I get a Dell server?
I've used Ubuntu, just to check it out, but I've heard Centos is better for web servers, is that true?
I'm new to the world of networking. Actually, I'm trying to change my desktop which has enough horse power to run heavy applications in to a server such that I may access it as a source safe server remotely (over the internet). I carry my laptop along all the times and would like to continue my development work when I find free time. I tried to find some help on google but was confused on which to follow and where to begin from.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Kerberos/LDAP/OpenAFS server running on Debian lenny, set up according to Davor Ocelic's excellent guide here (url). SSHd has ben configured to use GSSAPI auth and the clients have been configured to pass auth tokens through to the server.
My clients are all Ubuntu 9.10 x86 fully patched. On the clients, OpenAFS has been compiled and installed as a kernel module and git 1.6.6 has been compiled from source and installed. Otherwise, all software is stock Ubuntu repository-ware.
The setup is working fine as long as I connect to the primary server using its hostname:
peter@client01:~$ ssh nana
<connection goes through seamlessly without prompting>
peter@nana:~$
If I try to connect via a DNS alias (actually a second CNAME record), I get:
peter@client01:~$ ssh git1
peter@git1's password:
<connection completes>
peter@nana:~$
I need both passwordless auth and the DNS alias working, as it's internal policy that user connections are only ever made to service names, not real hostnames.
I have tried adding a second host principal to Kerberos for the alias (git1.darling.local) in addition to the host principal for the hostname (nana.darling.local).
If I turn off PasswordAuthentication in sshd_config, then "ssh git1" doesn't even fall through to passwords; it just denies logins. So it looks like it's not even using GSSAPI for the DNS alias.
So:
1) Is what I want even possible? I can't find anything that indicates that there's anything odd about DNS aliases such that this should happen.
2) Which config files should I post to help debug this? There's a lot and I didn't want to start blarfing them here if they aren't helpful.
I've setup postfix using mysql tables and all works except for sending to an alias. The mysql logs show that postfix is only looking at the mailbox table for where to deliver the mail for the alias. However it is not looking in the virtual alias maps table. There are no complaints from postfix on startup to indicate that there is anything wrong, and if I send to a virtual domain listed as a relay on the server it does look up the virtual alias table... even though the domain is not hosted on the server....
So the question I have is where to look next? The mysql log shows the expected lookups from postfix EXCEPT for the virtual alias map queries.... why would it not be checking the table? Since it is not looking up the virtual alias it bounces the addresses back to sender complaining that the user doesn't exist... It does deliver to a virtal mailbox, however again it never checks the vitual alias table.... so it only delivers since there's a mailbox for it rather than needing an alias...
I have a Fedora box running a domain and a sub domain. It also is the mail server running Postfix and Dovecot. I have created a new user account in the Virtual Alias.conf file and run postfix reload.
"e.g [URL] admin_company"
This new account can send mail internally and externally but cannot receive mail internally and externally.
The error message internally is: 5.1.1 <admin@threadneedle.com.pg>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table
I am going through and old .cshrc file and it contains the following alias:
alias pwd 'echo $cwd'
I used to think that this is how pwd might have been implemented. But looks like thats not the case (because then this alias is meaningless).
I was trying to add new alias "alias ls='ls --color=auto'" in .profile, but it never worked I displayed all the alias that are current available and did not see the one I just added and found this among them:
lsls $LS_OPTIONS
and the LS_OPTIONS is "-N --color=none -T 0"
this is in /etc/csh.cshrc file which I do not have permission to edit.
Is there way to overwrite it?
Also I do not see a .cshrc under my home directory. Can I just make one and source it? Or do I have to link it to some source file that already exists?
I would like to use something like a 'cdl' alias that would cd into the directory i choose and then ls the contents automatically. I find myself using ls after i cd into a directory all the time. Something like:
alias='cdl=cd $1;ls'
usage: cdl /local/dir
I'm testing out the aliases to have a better understanding on how to shorten commands. I am trying to list all files whose file names end with a .c extension in which starts from the current working directory and recursing through subdirectories as well. And I want to delay the path name expansion until the alias is executed. I want to use the directory /usr/share. Would the command be: alias findc='find -type d -exec /usr/share'?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an alias that I would like to use both as a regular user and as root, via sudo. Specifically, it is this:
alias rm=trash This works fine as a normal user, and it works fine when I use sudo -i to get a root shell prompt, but if I use sudo rm, the alias does not apply. So where do I need to put my alias so that it works in one-off sudo commands?
I'm running Utorrent server and I figure I would create an alias to launch the program and run it in the background.alias utorrent='/home/user1/software/utorrent-server-3.0/utserver &'It seems to run the program but the associated webui program is flaky and won't start correctly.If I manually go to the specified path and run the command ./utserver & , I never seem to have an issue with the webui.I was wondering if this could possibly have anything to do with using the '&' ampersand operator in an alias.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to occasionally touch a file with the current timestamp as the filename. I would do so this way:
touch `date "+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M"`.txt
However, I'd like to define an alias for this. When I try adding to the bashrc this:
alias td="touch `date "+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M"`.txt"
the result is that the filename is the same during the entire session, since the `date ..` gets calculated just once during login...
How can I get the command to expand only when I call the alias? Or must I use a function for this?
In my laptop, if I type below

I have packer installed for AUR packages, but I want to be able to use the pacman command for both. I think I will need a function for this -- what I mean is that whenever I use pacman, it will try using packer and if that fails (invalid option) it will use pacman-color. It could also decide which program to use based on the arguments. I can't just use packer (alias pacman='sudo packer') because packer doesn't have some options like -R to remove packages. I want to always use it to install and upgrade packages however, because It can install from the default repositories as well as AUR.
Does someone know how to accomplish this, or could point me in the right direction? I'm new to bash scripting. error (e.g. pacman -V prints packer: Option '-V' is not valid.).
I would like to create several aliases to eth0, but have the addresses assigned by DHCP instead of being set to static IP's. Is this even possible? All the examples I've seen assign a static IP using the command:

When at the command line, I find that I have to type out this command very often: find . -iname "*php" -exec grep -H query {} ; I'd love to set up an alias, script, or shortcut to make it work easier. I would like to do something like: mysearch query ("*php") (.) It would be great if the command could accept three arguments, in reverse order:
query string, file name expression, directory If the second two arguments were omitted they would default to not being included, and the current directory. Finally, the icing on the cake would be that if additional variables were included (4th, 5th, 6th...) they would be injected as additional arguments for the find command (like I could say -type d) at the end. Attempted code I tried the example below, but I'm still having trouble setting default values. What am I doing wrong?
#!/bin/bash
c=${param1+.}
b=${param2+*}
a=${param3+test}
find $c -iname $b -exec grep -H $a {} ;
