View 2 RepliesI'm running out of disk space in root, so I decide to move /usr/lib64 directory to other partition by creating moving the whole directory to new location and create a softlink in the old location. What I'm planning to do is:
1. Copy the whole directory to new location
2. Make sure if there's no problem in the copy process
3. Create a softlink in the old location pointing to the new location.
However, when I'm comparing the old location and the new location using du command, there's some discrepancies between those two where the new location contain bigger size than the old one. How is this possible?
Is this the proper way to save disk space by creating a softlink?
I am trying to build an tk.8.4.19 with the rpmbuild command. In the spec file there is a make command that uses the supplied Makefile that builds tk and untars it to the build directory /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/tk_8.4.19/unix .
The issue is that /usr/bin/wish is compiled with the make command and renamed to wish8.4, , and when the rpm does build it does not contain the link /usr/bin/wish -> /usr/bin/wish8.4 and there are other custom rpms on our systems (built by other people) that call /usr/bin/wish.
I have tried adding the ldconfig ln -sf /usr/bin/wish8.4 /usr/bin/wish in the %install and %build directives, it is in the tar file. I have tested it by creating the tar with the link and creating a null file call wish but it never gets built into the rpm. Whenever I call out /usr/bin/wish in the %file directive the rpm wont build.
I believe it will install and create the link if I tell it to ignore or skip the prereq check. That requires options to the yum command but it creates a problem because I need to to work with yum -y install <tk> or yum -y upgrade <tk> through a unattended script.
Bottom line is that I need the file to exist in the rpm or after the install and yum needs to be aware that /usr/bin/wish link is there so it doesn't require an override option during install.
SSH uses a keypair to encrypt traffic between the host and client. Which key is stored by the client ?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI notice that my bittorrent client is capable of automatically setting up port forwards with my router, and I want to know if I can do the same in a shell script. The reason is, that since my router is stupid and won't let me keep static IP addresses (it seems they forced a DHCP refresh every week to make me want to pay for a more expensive model which doesn't), I need to get my computer to change the port forward to follow my computer's changing internal network IP address. I have a couple of port forward manually entered into my router settings for web interfaces to bittorrent etc, but of course these have a good chance of being invalidated at each DHCP refresh cycle.

I am trying to create a backup schedule for client computers and servers; and I would like your opinion on what I came up with. Here is network infrastrusture setup:
16 client computers
6 serevrs
- Primary and Secondary Web Server (RAID 1)
- Primary and Secondary Domain Controller (RAID 1)
- File/Print Server (RAID 5)
- Backup Server (RAID 1) with USB 2.0 1TB External Drive
Of course I will evetually upgrade to Tape Drives, but I am saving up for that. Anyways I want to backup ALL client computers, Primary Web and DC server, and File/Print Server. This will be done (of course) on the Backup Server) Here is the schedule:

I have the following problem:I have to networks in remote places.I have an opnvpn client in one network that connects to the the router (openvpn server).My question is,can i connect the network where the openvpn client is,throught the computer with the client to the other network.If yes,how? (please make it an idiot proof anwser because i have limited knowledge about iptables). I was thinking like forwarding (the router in the network with the openvpn client is also firewalling with iptables) the request of the ip class of the openvpn network to the computer with the client,which masquarades the interface

Is there a way I can either create an image or copy(clone) to another computer just in case I need it. If it matters I have a spare 40 gig drive on the other computer. The reason for doing this is so that I can try a system restore and if anything goes wrong I want to be able to transfer back. Also if it is posible how could I put it back and be bootable.

I changed my server firewall settings[Fedora 11] and added "udp 60178" to trusted ports but still nothing happened. I ran wireshark and observed that packets are coming to the server machine but server returns a "Port Unreachable" ICMP message and doesnt give the packet to the application.

I have CentOS 5.5 client and host in VBox. I can't connect them (I am using bridge adapter mode) as I don't have router in between.
I just created DHCPD on host, and followed

But that don't seem to work also. Host is 192.168.1.10 and client is 192.168.1.100 but when I ping host from client, it says Destination host unreachable.

<VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx:443>
SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_O} eq "something"
SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth 2
</VirtualHost>
But when I try to check for syntax errors tells me SSLRequire not allowed here I do not want to add SSLRequire on the main httpd.conf because I only want it for one virtual host. The rest of the virtual hosts do not need it.
Can i block on debian that user can not download any files from host via winscp or other SFTP client ?

If I install Ubuntu Desktop to my local machine is it possible for me to administer the server using Ubuntu Desktop (using the GUI)? I connect to the net over ADSL. Any guides/advice for setting up Ubuntu as a web/mail/ftp with a key focus on keeping to secure? I know how to install LAMP but as I have root I need to learn a little more than I did when I was on a shared host.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 3 computers on a local home network. Computer 1 is not receiving incoming anything from other computers on the network, and I don't know why. The regular internet works fine.
Computer 1 can ping and ssh into either 2 or 3. 2 can ping and ssh into 3 and vice versa. But nothing can ping OR ssh into 1. Trying to do so says "no route to host".
All computers are running Ubuntu Karmic.
RedhatEL5(as guest) in Vmware ace, installed Samba, when:
#links http://localhost:901 ENTER
It works
but not with
#links http://127.0.0.1:901 ENTER
hence can't connect remotely from XP(host Computer).
Restarted accordingly, xinetd, with IPtables stop, #/etc/xinetd.d/swat file(disable = no) etc. How to fix this?
I have installed NXServer from NOMachine and I want to connect to my home computer from work. Because the router at my house is dynamic as is the wireless to this computer how do i go about setting up a host name for one of these computers? I am running the latest debian. I also intend to use this computer eventually as a file and web server so this would be extremely benificial

I'm using the IPs I found listed in my wireless router's web-based control panel.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm very new to Ubuntu and installed it (10.10) just a few days ago on a laptop I got for my girlfriend. The problem is that she wanted me to change the username and computer name that I have set up when installing, which I tried to do. I followed the instructions on this link to change the computer name/hostname: [URL]. Obviously I did something terribly wrong, because after trying to restart my computer I couldn't boot it. It freezes immediately after the BIOS screen - just displays a blinking dash in the top left corner. The same thing happens when i try to boot from a CD (I tried both Ubuntu and Windows 7 CD's. Resetting BIOS to default also did nothing.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble with Webmin. I got it up and running. However, I was changing the 'listen on port' to something other than port# 10000. I made sure ufw was open to the tcp requests on my new webmin port only. UDP has been disabled. I type in my browser my ip address with the new port, and I get 'problem loading page' now. How can I see the tcp port webmin is set from a terminal on the host computer? Do I goto a webmin folder and change a .conf file?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI needed to create a virtual host for a php project I'm working on. Rather than using command line and text editors, I installed webmin to accomplish this and hopefully perform other server configuration in the future. When I created the virtual host and tried applying the changes Apache wouldn't re-start, and still doesn't restart after complete re-boot. It's getting hung up at the end of apache2.conf, which is trying to include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.
When I look at 000-default from a File Browser, it's a linked file to etc/apache2/sites-available/default I can open both the linked file and actual file in a text editor, and it looks fine. When I view the directory, /etc/apache2/sites-available from shell, the default file isn't visible. It seems this "invisibility" is probably related to the error, which is preventing start-up. Can anyone explain why the file would be visible from the Ubuntu File Browser GUI but not from the terminal, and how I can fix so apache can recognize this on start-up?
I have two servers, one has an empty / and the other has a subdirectory with a large number (4 gig) with many, many files. I need a way to transfer the files en masse from the server with the large number of files to the one that is essentially blank.I don't have space on the used host to simply gzip all the files. I've googled this and see that there may be some combination of tar and/or gzip that will let me do this with some sort of redirection.
I really need and example line of how this can be accomplished. If my explanation seems rather sparse, I can supply more details.
Is there a way I can install a windows program to webspace and run it from a linux client computer? To specify, I'm a student at the University of Minnesota. I have access to linux machines running Ubuntu, however, the space allocated to us is too small for the program I would like to run on these computers. I do have webspace I can use though. The thing I'd like to be running on the linux computers is a windows application requiring installation. So is there a way to put/install/(whatever else it might be called) this program onto my webspace and be able to run it from the linux computers? I know it's probably unlikely, but maybe?
