My questions are as follows:
- What kind of server/service should I rent - dedicated or vps?
- Is one IP-Address enough to connect, say, 100 user? (I plan to run IPsec or OpenVPN, maybe PPTP)
- What Bandwith and/or traffic limits I need to consider to make the service reasonably fast for the users?
- Which Linux-distro should I use? Ubuntu Server, CentOS, FreeBSD, Debian etc?
- How much RAM and HDD space is recommended for such an endevour?
- Any advice on the processor type the server should have?
- Is 100M network ok or better 1000M?
- What means 100Mbps shared bandwidth in contrast to 10Mbps dedicated guaranteed per server?

I would like to know if it is safe to clear it and how to clear it (assuming it will not disrupt/kill server services to do so).
I have Matrix control panel so i can view the storage etc but it does not have an way of clearing the /Var directory.
I have Putty Access to root but do not know which command to use.
I found a few threads but the information is not clear to me as there seems to be an assumption of basic knowledge I don't yet have.
My linux/ubuntu support that usually does this kind of thing for me is away and not contactable and my server is grinding to a halt and unable to store/send email.

I was unable to access my dedicated server for few minutes. I have checked the apache error logs and found below notice:

Can anyone walk me through the process of increasing my max connection on my linux server?Over the last few weeks I have been getting errors saying I have to many connections.I think the default is 100 and I would like to maybe increase it to 150 or 200I know I cannot go to high because I will then be using to much of my memory or maybe CPU

I'll try to describe my question as clear as possible.
- I have purchased a domain name : *****.md
- In the panel of registrar I have only the following options to complete :
Primary NS Hostname
Primary NS Netaddress
Secondary NS Hostname
Secondary NS Netaddress
- At home I have :
a)a WiFi router that is getting an external IP from my ISP provider (internal address of router is 192.168.1.111); External IP from ISP is STATIC.
b)a computer which I use as server (ubuntu 10) with internal IP 192.168.1.100 (I get it by DHCP from Router but it can be set as static of course);
- On server are installed :
a) Apache + Mysql + PHP
b) Ftp serv
c) Webmin
d) SSH serv
e) Bind9 DNS serv
- On my WiFi router there is an option "Forwarding -> Virtual servers" where I setup the ports 53 + 80 to forward to my server and I can access from external my site by IP.
All I want is to have my site *****.md to run on my server and to be visible to external world.
I have searched Google for last 2-3 days for a solution but everything I try doesn't help.
I'm new in Linux ( 1 week probably). Everything except DNS server Bind I was able to setup and are working well.
When you need to change something on the server you can hook up a monitor and a keyboard and do it through the console.
I would like to hook up an external monitor in this fashion for a desktop. The current video card can only support a single display. So I was hoping there was someway to use a second monitor as just a permanent console since simple text shouldn't require a video card?
I have a server running slackware 13.1, and it is running windows server 2003 with QEMU-KVM. I followed [URL , now two system can connect each other.
The problem is: I bought two dedicated IPs, and I wanna know how to setup these two system to be Internet Servers.(Nginx in slackware, IIS in 2003) I found some subjects but I can't find what I want.
I am currently having an issue attempting to set up a dedicated server for source games (TF2, CS:S, L4D2). The required port (27015), along with most others, appears closed to the rest of the world and upon a port scan with DMZ hosting on (therefore no router interference between the internet and my computer) only a few ports are open (80, 139, 443, 445). My ISP does not block ports so therefore the only issue I can find is with my computer running Ubuntu 11.04. I have ensured that all traffic is allowed via iptables and I can't think of anything else that would have ports closed.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have set up a Virtual machine on a dedicated server from 1and1. I hoped to use a bridge to give the vm direct access to the internet but 1and1 do mac filtering and so the only option is to use NAT.
I used Virtual Machine Manager on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine at home to install Debain Lenny on the vm on the server using KVM and all went well. I put it on a virtual network 192.168.100.0 and i can access it from the host and i can access the internet from the guest using NAT that libvirt set-up.
I bought another ip address from 1and1 with the hope of forwarding packets to the new ip address 11.22.33.02 to the guest vm.
I have tried all sorts of routing rules using iptables without any success.
my virtual network is on virbr1 the guest ip is 192.168.100.50 my external network device is ip say 11.22.33.01 on eth0 with the secondary ip say 11.22.33.02 on eth0:1
Here are the latest rules i tried:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 11.22.33.02 -i eth0 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.100.50

View 1 Replies View RelatedBeen a while since I last posted here, though I stop by often. Unfortunately I find myself in a bit of a pickle again. Here's the situation. I have an RHEL3u5 server running Apache 2.0.48 and an equivalent of Tomcat and JBoss. IBM's WebSphere Application Server 6.0.2 to be exact, the Apache also being one of their flavors (IBMIHS).
Everything's been going dandy since forever, but lately the httpd processes seemingly just hit a brick wall of some unknown kind. Checking the /server-status page reveals a whole lot of piling up "waits".
The funny part is that the load average rarely goes higher than 1.0, I/O seems within limits, memory usage as far as I can tell seems fine, disk usage appears all good... I would've felt more at ease if something did shoot through the roof, but there's just nothing to go on. It's definitely Apache getting its knickers all in a twist as well since I can access the servlet engine's web GUI just fine over its dedicated port via browser.
Here's what I noticed so far: Apache processes rise steadily to over 35 or so, after which it all goes south fast. As a result and as a temporary fix, I've enabled a cronjob that checks the amount of httpd processes and just restarts Apache if they're above 28. So far this seems to keep things sort of happy, but obviously I'm still twitchy with the overall state of affairs. I do not have the settings immediately at hand, but here are some further details so far:
Server spec:
8 x Xeon CPUs
8GB RAM
I'll post further details probably on Monday, specifically key portions of the httpd.conf file.
We are trying to set up a NIS server on a CentOS system. We need to have a NIS server which can provide NIS authentication to a couple of clients. We are practically new to all this stuff.
Just googled to find some ideas about installing ypserv and ypbind and portmapper. We did all that and also started them successfully. But now the clients are not able to join to the NIS domain . The error log states "YP_DOMAIN NOT BOUND".
I guess we have not entered the /etc/yp.conf, /etc/hosts files properly. Please let us know the detailed steps to setup a NIS server .
Also, please let us know what entries should go into the different /etc/<file_names>? What is meant by HOSTNAME in the /etc/hosts file?
Is there any other files which need to be changed? Are we missing any steps?
Also to add-on, while executing the ypinit command we faced the following error:
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts which will run NIS servers. localhost.localdomain is in the list of NIS server hosts. Please cont inue to add the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the list, type a <control D>. next host to add: localhost.localdomain next host to add:
The current list of NIS servers looks like this:
Is this correct? [y/n: y] y

I currently want to set up a network with 2 Ubuntu servers (mail and web) in a DMZ in order to separate them from an internal network. I want to use a dedicated Linux firewall. This firewall will have 3 network interfaces on it. One network interface will connect to the external router/modem (router and modem in one box), one interface will connect to the DMZ and the other interface will connect to the internal network. The router/modem lets you put, I think it's 1 or 2, interfaces in a DMZ.
But, when I think of any of the dedicated firewall's or servers' interfaces it doesn't make sense to me to put any of them in the router/modem's DMZ (I think it would be better for the dedicated firewall's and the servers' interfaces to have static private I.Ps ie 192.168.2.4 etc right?). What I mean is that even if, as far as the router/modem is concerned, none of the interfaces were in a DMZ, the area where the servers are would still effectively be a perimeter network and with such a set up would still be, effectively,a DMZ, right?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI discovered that if you install directFB (a framebuffer display library magic thing) you can run "links -g" which makes an attempt to be graphical, but it's still not quite the same as a normal browser... I was wondering if there was any way to run an X server for a single programme, or an equivalent solution. Essentially, what I'd like to be able to do is run, say, "startx firefox [URL] and for an X server to be created solely to run my firefox instance. Obviously, the current behaviour (at least, in Ubuntu, as I haven't installed X on Gentoo) is to bring up a graphical login screen, allowing me to start an entirely new X session. Is there a way to do this, or is it just "not how X works"?
