General :: Export A VirtualBox Appliance To A NAS?
Jan 30, 2010
I'm using VirtualBox 3.1.2 (r56127) on Linux (Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit). I'm trying to use Export Appliance utility to clone my virtual machines over local network using SMB protocol to NAS. I decided to do it because some machines are larger than free space on my local disk drive - lack of space for the clones. Simply, I specify GVFS path in the folder selection dialog box, for example:
/home/mloskot/.gvfs/mloskot on browarekhd/VirtualBox/clones
The process starts but after a minute or so the VirtualBox throws an error. Here is screenshot with the exact error:
Does it mean export over network is not supported? Does it mean there is a bug in VirtualBox? Or, simply I must not have used GVFS path as the one above as it consists of spaces in mloskot on browarekhd ?
UPDATE: Maciek suggested below to copy vmdk file to NAS manually. Generally, it would work, but as I specify in my question, I can't generate vmdk file (by exporting VM locally first) on my box where I keep all my VMs due to lack of disk space.

Id like to know if I can import my VirtualBox OSE from Ubuntu 10.10 to Ubuntu 11.10 coming up in April? I will hold off and wait until April, before purchasing my new computer, if I have to build the VirtualBox OSE from scratch, as I have spent a lot of time on it.

I will soon have a setup consisting of a firewall with 1 WAN interface, and 2 LAN interfaces. One will be a DMZ (With ports forwarded to some servers from the WAN interface), and the other an internal LAN.
Now, I wish to install an OpenVPN appliance, so that i can access my internal network remotely. I'm just a bit confused *where* to place the appliance..
The point of me splitting up the 2 LANs was to avoid port forwarding onto the internal network...

I am trying to run matlab on a remote mac through my laptop at home, which is a linux-based. I am not able to export the display. Here are the steps I followed.
1. xhost +remotehost
2. Log into remotehost (i.e., the mac machine)
3. export DISPLAY="192.168.2.2:0.0"
4. matlab
But I get the following message,
"unable to open display 192.168.2.2:0.0"
The reason I typed in that ip address in step 3 was that is the ip listed in the "wlan0" block when I typed "ifconfig -a" on my local linux laptop.

Quote: The boxes were designed to intercept those communications without breaking the encryption by using forged security certificates, instead of the real ones that websites use to verify secure connections. To use the appliance, the government would need to acquire a forged certificate from any one of more than 100 trusted Certificate Authorities.
Complete Article It seems like the EFF is still trying to figure what the best way to protect against this sort of attack is. The idea they kicked around about using the Tor network to compare certificates in other geographical locations seems kinda clumsy to me, though. Surely they've got a better approach brewing. How about you guys? Any thoughts to share?

This isn't exactly Ubuntu specific, but I do plan on using Ubuntu to try to recover this array. I've been using a Freedom9 freestor 4020 for the past few years and other than it totally blowing up last week it's been pretty good. I was on vacation for almost a month and a few days after I returned my NAS (freestor 4020) started acting up. I tried a few power cycles, but was dismayed to see that I could not log in via browser or SSH (SMB shares were no accessible either). A drive failure light is supposed to illuminate if a disk fails, but no dice.
I plugged all 4 drives from the NAS into an Ubutnu 9.04 Desktop system and one started throwing out all kinds of errors. Thinking that it would be a simple rebuild, I went to my local computer shop and picked up another 500GB drive (same manufacturer/part #), replaced the failed drive, and powered up the NAS again... Nothing. I left it for 12 hours then powered it down, plugged the new drive into my linux box again to see if it rebuilt... the drive was a virgin. What gives me hope that I can still recover the data is Ubuntu sees "RAID components" on the drives (through disk manager and parted), and gives me the option of initializing the array.
My plan of attack is to plug all of the drives back into my Ubuntu box, initialize the RAID array via LVM, and pretty much hope for the best. The data is not uber critical, but it would be a pretty big pain in the behind to rip/upload all the software that was on it (ripping hundreds of DVD/CD images is not fun). If my Ubuntu box can make sense of this newly initialized/mounted RAID set... I'll plug in a 2TB external drive, copy the data over, and rebuild the NAS from scratch, then put my data back on (perhaps a different unit, or something running openfiler).

We make network appliances for process control. The owners and operators are not supposed to open them. But they can.
For unrelated reasons, we put our homegrown software onto a USB that is inserted into the appliance. To keep prying eyes off it, we encrypt it. The key is on the appliance internal drive, which can be removed and mounted elsewhere by enterprising IP thief, who can then find the key to the encrypted USB drive.
Any ideas for closing this vector down?
For casual snoopers, we have password protected grub.
Calling cadillackid: would be very pleased to hear about your approach to locking down devices sent to remote premises.

I know there are ways to change the login of a linux box (runlevel 3) so that you don't see the regular login prompt but that you get a list with options. You see this with appliances.
My goal is to create a login like some of those appliances have. Instead of just getting a login prompt you can select several options like login, change network configuration, change password, stuff like that. How can I do this? Is there an Open Source tool to configure this?

I am encountering a strange problem on my VOIP setup Basically, I have a asterisk appliance IP04. I have setup all the extensions and everything. I use a Linksys PAP2T as an ATA remotely. Now, my problem is the ATA sometimes is okay can call SIP and PSTN but sometimes I just can't hear anything. I thought it was my ISP blocking the VOIP packets but I have tried both the SIP softphone and IAX2 softphone on my PC. For IAX2, it works perfectly however in the SIP, I can hear the other end but they cannot hear me.
These are the ports I have opened on my router
1.) UDP 5060 - SIP Port
2.) UDP 10000 - 20000 - RTP Port
3.) UDP 4569 - IAX2
Do I need to open both TCP/UDP for these ports or UDP should be enough? These are the test cases:
1.) Using my WiFi Connection and a analog phone connected to ATA --> Sometimes working sometimes not and sometimes you can call SIP but the other end cannot hear you
2.) Using IAX2 in WiFi connection --> This one works perfectly
3.) Using a mobile phone connected to WiFi Network --> The same...but you can call and go out on PSTN but the other end cannot hear you
4.) Using a mobile phone connected via 3G --> Works perfectly but as expected it is quite slow and voice quality is awful
I want to use SIP rather than IAX2 because it is widely used and since my ATA doesn't support IAX2. Are there other ports I need to open or configure?

We have an appliance with image being installed from CD/DVD installation
This appliance image is based on CentOS 4.7 kernel/installer/etc. Everything works fine, we ship this product for about 2 years. Recently I had to move it (port everything) to CentOS 5.5 Everything went fine and it works fine except one minor thing )) We can't install it from CD/DVD image yet. Actually it start fine, finds kickstart file, creates partitions correctly, copies install image to harddrive, but fails the next step when it tries to install RPM's
The message we get:
Quote:
the file termcap-5.5-1.20060701.1.noarch.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media. Please verify your installation source. If you exit your system will be left in an inconsistent state that will likely require re-installation"

Exporting display from a Linux terminal to a Linux desktop is easy; you do the following:
On 192.168.90.121 (localPC):
xhost + 192.168.10.164
On 192.168.10.164 (remotePC):
export DISPLAY=192.168.90.121:0.0 <br/>
firefox
The Firefox window appears on my localPC. In the above case both PCs are Linux.
Can I similarly export the Linux display to a Windows PC? In the above example, localPC would be Windows and remotePC would be Linux.

The command export is working inside a shell script, but when I type it at the command prompt / terminal it doesn't work. "export: The command not found" error is displayed instead.
I tried this:
cat test.sh
Code:
abc=123
export abc
echo "Exit status of export abc: $?"
[code]....
I tried it before on my RHEL system and it was working. I have checked
Code:
echo $PATH
which is okay. What could be the problem?

I have downloaded and setup the SUSE Lifecycle Management Server on vmware using the Live CD Distribution. I have connected it to Susestudio.com as my repository and setup a user account via the backend on pg 96 using the slms-admin-ui-user -o to create my administrator account since I lost the password for the initial login. I created a customer and have the following:
Mirroring Credentials - User Name: (random character)
Mirroring Credentials - Password: (random character)
Also I have a test box for installing the Live CD of our application. Do all appliance created on suse studio have the client to connect to the SLMS server or do need to install a client? If there is no client how do I obtain and add it to the appliance on susestudio.com ? How do I setup appliance as a client?

I am trying to understand why when running nmap against a SonicWALL firewall at a remote location, the SonicWall firewall is saying that most of its 65535 ports are open? I know this cant be correct and remember reading about how some of these network appliances are setup this way to thwart off attacks.

I am copying some backup files to a NAS by connecting an NFS export on the NAS to a mount point on my linus box. I then copy the files to it with a cron job that runs nightly. I have mounted the NAS to /mnt/nas. How can I test that the mount point is active before I copy to it? I wouldn't want to copy to /mnt/nas unless it was actually connected to the NAS.

I'm trying to install Gentoo on a virtual machine (VirtualBox installed on my debian squeeze).
My connexion at home is veeery slow, so I wanted to do it at work (don't judge me!), the thing is I' behinf a proxy.
I tried the command
Code:
export http_proxy="proxy:port"
but couldn't ping anything. On the other hand, when i use
Code:
links www.google.com -http-proxy host:port
that works...
So i was able to download the stage3 file and start preparing the system, but I have some troubles when it comes to use the provided tools (the tool to add a mirror can't retrieve the list for example, and I guess I could not emerge anything either)
