General :: VPN Setup - Cannot Ping Computer Through Ext Source
Feb 17, 2010
I got a VPN Setup, issue is, I cannot ping or talk to any other computer through an external source without typing in the FQDN so for example to ping host: chucknorris
ping chucknorris.work.com.au
rather then just typing:
ping chucknorris
I do know I'm missing an arguments in my pptpd_options file, but does anyone know what?
I made an ip packet using raw sockets and used icmp header of echo request inside that ip packet.I have a wifi lan with 2 host(laptops) connected to it. when I send the packets to any of these host the reply me with echo reply as i see in wireshark. but when i change the source ip and mac to that of another host there is no echo reply packet in the network but only echo request packet is there. Can anybody tell me why is this happening. and am also using Promiscuous mode so non of the packet is discarding.
I am using an virtual machine. where I need to ping from one machine to another. earlier I was able to ping. But after going to google.com once, I cannot ping back to this machine.
But if I gave ping -I eth1 <IP> then I can ping.
I cannot install any package, so tell me solution which includes not installing any package.
I would like to run Windows (XP preferred) games and Linux on my MacBook Pro I got from school. However, there are some rules I have to follow. If I need to I will try to further clarify the rules, since they are in Swedish and there isn't a perfect translation. I cannot use Boot Camp. This is because Windows machines get viruses 24/7 and there are no viruses on Mac. Furthermore, we are using Visual Studio for about half the things we do through a virtual machine. Perfect for debugging, performance and "virtual machines don't get viruses", right? At least that's what my teachers think. I cannot change the default setup of the computer. In Swedish this basically tells me I cannot even start it up because then I will mount the drive, and make changes in RAM, and use the processor, and move electrodes from the battery and so on. They're telling me that that's way to specific, though, and that we aren't allowed to change the operating system files. I think we break that rule with each update, install or setting we ever touch. I may not use any program without first showing a receipt. The original casing, CD and the CD key isn't enough. A license like GNU is ok, though.
I basically need a way to boot into a USB drive or CD, with the ability to use network and DX9 to play games on Windows. Linux support isn't as crucial since OS X does have a lot of Linux support already. I've tried other ways of working around the rules like running games in Wine but I can't get DX9 based games to work and the FPS is terrible. They have the right to check the computer at any time to see if there is something bad there. Swapping a harddrive will definately be noticed.
What is a good MTA (e.g. Postfix or something else) setup for a home computer behind a NAT, or a laptop that is not always online? I've read a lot of Postfix tutorials on how to set it up this way or that, but they are usually geared towards computers that are servers ie they
have a static IP have a domain name are always connected to the same network
My requirements are, I guess: Ability to redirect mail for local users to another server of my choosing. No listening for incoming SMTP connections - outgoing only Ability to route outgoing mail via an external SMTP server with authentication (and perhaps encryption) If not Postfix, I need an MTA which can queue up mails in case it temporarily has no internet connection.
I 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 installed Fedora 12 on my laptop. I have a wireless connection to the internet that works fine, I attached an Ethernet cable from this laptop to a windows machine. There is a green light.
I can ping my localhost. I can ping the windows machine using it internal IP address via the router. However, the eth0 IP address does not work when I ping to it from the windows nachine. Also, I cannot ping to the windows machine using the IP address associated with the Ethernet connection.
I have an old computer I have set Ubuntu up on to use it to learn about web services, networking and sys admin.As a first step I have installed the LAMP packages successfully. I want to reach my ubuntu computer from my laptop through my home wireless setup.
On the server I open a browser put this in the address bar and get to the "It works!" page so assume its correct.I go to my laptop, put the same number in the browser and am told that there's a problem loading that page.I figure ok, could be security or ports or something so i ping it to see if it work on that level and it doesn't.I go to my laptop, get the ip for it and then try to ping from ubuntu to my laptop - that doesn't work either.Pinging the router from both computers works fine though.What do I do now?
I have a desktop computer (Ubuntu) connected to one of the LAN ports of the Cradlepoint MBR1000 router via an Ethernet cable. I also have a Verizon mobile broadband USB modem (USB760) plugged into the USB port of the Cradlepoint router.I also have a laptop (Ubuntu) with a wireless wi-fi adapter (802.11g). The laptop also has an Ethernet card but I'm not using it. The desktop computer does not have a wi-fi adapter, only the laptop does.
With the above setup, I have Internet access to both the desktop computer as well as the laptop computer, which I am well pleased with.Is there a way I can have file sharing between the desktop and the laptop, or at least ping between them, the way I have it set up? I can't use the ad-hoc method because for that to work each computer needs a wi-fi adapter. The router is using DHCP but can also be configured manually.
unreachable computer's ifconfig reports xxx.xxx.xxx.37 but when I ping that address from another computer it says "Destination Host Unreachable" (all the other computers on the LAN can ping each other except this one particular computer)I can ping other computers from the unreachable computer just fine...
I posted the same problem before but did not get answers, I guess due to the unattractive title. I have two Ubuntu machines, both desktop version with a server installed on top. They are both on the same network. It seems that when I restart the remote computer, I can ssh to it fine for a while but then I get the following:
Read from remote host: Connection reset by peer lost connection.
I have a Netopia 3000 Series Internet Gateway [URL] & windows 7(laptop) & ubuntu 9.10. - My laptop connects to it wireless and my ubuntu via ethernet cable. - I am trying to setup file sharing and printing. How do I go about in making them ping each other? the networking side. I logged in the router & check and windows has ip 192.168.100 & ubuntu has 192168.1.2
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and previously had a separate partition with another distro on it. I decided to delete the other distro's home and swap partitions and install XP in place of it. I've been following these instructions: [URL] and [URL] I have gotten to the point where I am booting to the XP CD and want to install it, but I get the message, "Setup did not find any hard disks installed on your computer" when I should be getting to the screen that asks me to select a partition to install XP on. This is what my HDD looks like in GParted:
I want to install XP in the unallocated partition, but I have a feeling I screwed up somewhere along the way and probably don't fully understand the whole thing. Even if I try to format the unallocated partition to NTFS I can't make it a primary partition (I assume because it's within sda2). The very last thing I want to do is delete my Ubuntu partition and start from scratch, but if that's my last option let me know.
I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to remote access my girlfriend's Ubuntu machine to fix a few things. The problem is that she lives in Japan and I live in RI, USA! Is it even possible to ssh or Remote Desktop her computer with such a high ping rate? (average ping time is 300ms) If so why can I not connect?
Installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my Sony UX280p with Intel 4965 wireless. Ubuntu detects the card without issues (as far as I can tell). I can see all access points in my area and select my access point and pair with it. I get a DHCP address from the AP (if ifconfig is to be believed) and iwconfig shows the ESSID of my AP but I can't ping the AP or any other computer on the network, nor can I ping the sony from any other computer on my network. Last year I had installed 9.04 on this computer and wifi worked out of the box without any issues.
I just recently installed SUSE onto my computer because I'm sick of Windows crashing frequently.
Now I'm trying to setup my hardware, seems like everything is fine except for my graphics card.
I have an NVIDIA Quadro FX 540, and I'd downloaded the suitable driver from their site.
However, upon installation, I received some kind of error that mentioned it can't find my kernel.h or something like that. Someone said I would need the kernel source to proceed.
What is the best way for me to set this up?
Here is my system info when uname -a is ran: Linux namid 2.6.27.7-9-default #1 SMP 2008-12-04 18:10:04 +0100 x86_64 x86_64x86_64 GNU/Linux
I am trying to decrease volume of noise coming from computer as much possible, till one point from where I don't know exactly what's the source of noise.
"That noise" starts coming out of computer few seconds about booting, not while POST test, and then it's constant. To me it seems like it's coming out of cpu, but not fan. (I have disconnected all hard drives, have gpu with passive cooling installed, and it's still there. Cpu is AM3 socket AMD Phenom II 810 processor, and motherboard is Asus M4A78T-E.
Also, my other computers with Intel and other AMD processors does not produce such a noise.
Does that noise come out of CPU? is it some "computing sign" of processor (assuming that during first seconds of booting are perfectly quiet), or kind of general problem of AMD (or AM3 socket) cpus.
Just as the title says, where on earth is the source for the setup command during the install? I'm guessing that setup is a script, but I'm not sure (can't find it).
I have windows 2003 with high memory and HDD in local network which i want to make it as backup server. there are few linux and windows clients which are all running in redhat,centos and windows 2003. As i want to setup netware backup, is there any best open source backup s/w available so that the backup would run periodically. i need to isntall backup server in my windows 2003 and backup client in other linux and windows 2003. any free backup software.? i went through zmanda but that is not freely available.
I had made some modifications in the source code of a software called "HomeBank". I'm not able to make a setup file using "Inno setup".how to create an .EXE file for the source code to execute.
Are there any Computer Algebra Systems in the Ubuntu repositories that are GUI (and preferably GTK+) based and open source, as well as capable of graphing (and in 3D)? That being: A complete FOSS competitor to Microsoft Student.
Currently I am working on one project in which I am transferring existing setup to Open Source platform. I am having brand new IBM server with two NIC card and want to setup Firewall. I am searching for good solution which suits to me. Which firewall system I should go for? I am thinking of IPCop.
1) Firewall should support OpenVPN 2) Easy to manage for Resident technician 3) Should be block streaming, facebook and others sites.
I am using "ping" on 2 computers on the same wifi network.One of them shows a bigger delay than the other consistently.I am trying to find out what may be the problem.. Can someone suggesta way to investigate this issue or isolate the problem?Both of them sending "ping" at almost the same time.First laptop (much newer laptop model)
