Networking :: Adding Ipv6 To Home Server?
Mar 3, 2011
I currently have a home server, running Gentoo, with IPv4 connectivity through Qwest.I feel that it is important that this server also be available through IPv6 (I'm aware that, after exhaustion, my end still might not get an address through DHCP).I currently use dyndns.org to provide me with a DNS entry mapping jrvanwhy.homelinux.net to my IPv4 address.I do not have any sort of tunnel set up yet for IPv6 traffic yet. The new domain name does not necessarily have to be the same [URL].I do not wish to spend any money on this.Is there some free service I can register for that would do both the tunneling and the DNS entry? Is there a service that can supply me with an IPv6 DNS entry, if I get a static IPv6 address with another tunnel broker, like Hurricane Electric?

I'm using Internet connection through local network, receiving white (global) IP, route, DNS with local DHCP server. Lately I noticed that my Ubuntu gets ipv6 autoconfiguration from ISP router, receiving global ipv6 address and automatically adding ipv6 route. I can access Internet resources using ipv6 connection:
I can ping inet resources using my ipv6 global address and access, for example, ipv6.google.com or URL..
How can I share ipv6 connection to my home network? Using ipv4 it's easy, I just can use NAT for this. But if I understand correctly, in ipv6 there isn't such thing as NAT, because there is no limit in ip addresses.

For the few thousands of people who have a little too much time on their hands who create personal web servers and host them using their local ISP on dynamic IP addressees.... what does the future hold for me.. {COUGH} ... I mean, them when IPv6 rolls out?

I used to play with gw6c ( a client for tunnel broker ) It works well with fedora9 , fedora 10, but not with leonidas. my rpm is gw6c-6.0-0.4.beta4.fc9.i386.rpm ( a little old!) when I tried to install i have got this: libcrypto.so.7 est ncessaire pou w6c-6.0-0.4.beta4.fc9.i386 I try to make a soft link to libcrypto.so.0.9.8k, but nothing; The question :-Is there a solution for that pb - did you know a better client for non native ipv6 connectivity?

I have been struggling to get FC15 to act as an IPv6 router for a while now, am sure I am missing something trivial.. The idea is that I have a ppp / adsl connection (this works fine), use the wireless card on my pc with hostapd and dhcpd to provide connections to other pcs (works fine), and radvd to delegate ipv6 addresses.
The issue seem to be that as soon as I turn on ipv6 forwarding (net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding =1), the ppp connection no longer gets an IPv6 address. This means the router cannot ping any ipv6 address outside my network.
If I disable ipv6 routing, my router gets an IPv6 address on its ppp connection, and can ping things such as ipv6.google.com just fine, however (of course) no packets are forwarded from my network and radvd complains that forwarding is disabled.

I added an init script numbered just before bind9 starts, which needs to see the ipv6 link-local address on eth0. Sometimes this address is not configured, yet. In all cases it eventually is configured.
I am unable to find any script that is configuring the ipv6 link-local address (which is in part based on the MAC address). Does anyone know if there is some script or program that is supposed to be doing this, or is it an internal kernel function?
One workaround I am considering is making this init script go into a loop around sleep 1 to keep checking for the ipv6 address. But I'm concerned this might cause some problems. Any suggestions? I don't want to let it move on to start bind9 until the configuration this script does (more ipv6 addresses) is done.
This is on Ubuntu 9.10 server (for which there is not a prefix choice).

I have Ubuntu Server 9.10 up and running as my file server. However, it sits amongst other PCs running XP Pro and Network Printers (e.g. Xerox Docuprint C2535A) on the network. My question is whether there is a way of adding the Xerox printer to the Ubuntu Server so that other PCs will send print jobs through the server. I think the printer is windows-based printer. Is it possible to do this? or are there any other options that you may be able to share with me?

I ran out of space on my /home directory and added a drive. I've got it in my fstab file but how do I get Ubuntu to add the space to my /home? The line I put in fstab is:
/dev/sda5 /media/mynewdrive ext3 defaults 0 2

I can ssh into my home server via command line, from the terminal application of Ubuntu 9.10, but not from the Places -> Connect to Server... GUI tool.
The latter produces an error message box with two lines. The first reads "Cannot display location sftp://gabi@my_server_ip" and the second reads "Error reading from unix: Input/output error".
In my old Ubuntu 9.04, both the command line ssh and the "Connect to Server..." GUI way worked fine. The latter had the advantage that my server folders showed up in Nautilus. I liked that.

I have got a fair idea on setting up a home server to be shared among other computers for data files...I just have a few doubts on the following
1. Can I disable the monitor for the laptop as it may consume unnecessary power if I intend to use it purely for network use.
2.Currently I connect to Net thru DHCP.. How do I use this while accessing from other computers (as it is going to be dynamic each time)
3.For Power saving what are the options? Should I put the server in Hibernate or switch off when not in use say during night ..If I switch it off , then I may have to power on the laptop physically each time right ? I want to eliminate physical operations in the laptop and control it purely from other network machines at the same time get maximum power savings as if it is on 24 hrs my electricity bill will go for a toss plus more importantly the heat may kill my ol laptop!
4.Are there any good software (win and linux)for managing the home server like being able to access the drive , reboot , switch off,transfer files , Run an application on the servr etc..?

I just set up an old PC as an Ubuntu Server. I've got it all connected, and set up the way I want it...here's the problem I can't access my server as long as I'm attemting to access it from my home IP. I can ssh and ping it from both my phone on 3g and another (non-local) server I have SSH access to. Because of how our apartment is set up, each bedroom has it's own separate ethernet connection. The one in the room next to mine goes unused so I set up my server on it. My ISP is Charter, if that matters.

I have a home server that I have setup to connect to via SSH. All is working well with that. I would like to have the home server access the internet through a VPN. However, if I do this, I am no longer able to connect to the server via SSH, even though I know what its IP address is.

I try to configure a server at home on Ubuntu 10.04 (French Server)
I have 3 network :
eth1 for lan (IP FIX) 192.168.1.100
ppp0 for a vpn connection on an English Server (IP DHCP)
tun0 for openvpn i use it to connect to my French Server from Anywhere
I draw it here
My problem is when i activate my ppp0 connexion i can't connect tun0 because all port are redirect on ppp0 connexion (i can connect only when i'm on the LAN)
OF course i redirect the port of my IP Public to my French Server IP Private. If i don't activate the ppp0 connexion i can connect to my server with tun0 connexion from everywhere !
So i try do this redirection but it's not working and i don't no why ???
Code:
### Routing acces openvpn et vnc de la connexion ppp0 vers eth1
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -j DNAT -i ppp0 -p udp --dport 1194 --to-destination 192.168.1.100
[Code]....

I would like to use an unused desktop running Ubuntu desktop edition as sort of a file server for my house. I don't need to do much other than use it as a networked drive. All of the computers in the house are running either Windows or linux (and a google tv if possible). What programs do I need to use it for this purpose? I've heard something about apache and samba. What else do I need?

I've registered a top-level domain site.com pointing to my IPv6 address (6to4 tunnel). Everything looks ok, dig command, nslookup command shows requested output, but: I'm not able to connect to mail.site.som on 110 port. I still get an error messaged, that connection has been refused. I've populated the ip6tables with commands to open desired port but with no success. I'm listening on 25, am able to connect to this port, but not to 110.
Command netstat -an | grep "LISTEN " shows that I'm not listening on 110 port, although I'm just added this port to the firewall exceptions. Telnet to ::1/tunneled IPv6 address is successful. Postfix installed, configured properly, ping6 working. Everytime I try to send email from external domain, I'm advised that the mail domain is not pointing to A record.

I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my laptop. My ISP natively supports ipv6, but since last weekend, I do not get an ipv6 ip. When I use a live cd however, I do get an ipv6 ip. For as far as I can see, all settings (/etc/network/interface and the settings in network manager) are exactly the same.
Output of ifconfig:
Code:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
inet addr:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX Bcast:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX Mask:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
inet6 addr: XXXX::XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[Code].....
EDIT: is there a way to let the netwerk be automatically configured as happens during installation? It would be nice to start with a clean and new set of network config files as there were just after I installed Ubuntu on my system, without a full reinstall of my system.

I have a problem with my ipv6 connection: although I can't get ipv6 address with DHCP, I can't use ipv6 network. I tried [URL], and the tortoise is static. I want to fix it out , so I use 'ifconfig' to see my network configuration:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:8d:ef:dd:06
inet addr:210.77.9.102 Bcast:210.77.11.255 Mask:255.255.252.0
inet6 addr: 2002:d24d:b64:4:250:8dff:feef:dd06/64 Scope:Global
[code]....
Some people told me that the fisrt ipv6 address was wrong and unsuitable for ipv6 connecting. I tried /ect/init.d/networking restart but it didn't work. How can I use the second address as my ipv6 address and fix the problem out ? Now it seems there is not problem with the ip adress but the route. After watching some video, I suddenly could use ipv6. I did 'ifconfig' again and nothing was different. However, the result from the command 'ip -f inet6 route' changed: the last default route was gone and there was only one default route.

I have installed Bind 9.6.1 on my linux pc. I have to resolve domain name using IPv6 address. I have made following entry in the /etc/resolv.conf file code...
address of the machine on which Bind is running. The problem is that I am not able to ping open-ims.test domain name. If I use IPv4, everything works fine but how to ping domain using IPv6.
I have also made changes in dnszone file by replacing IPv4 address with IPv6 address and also changing A to AAAA.

I just received a 2 tb drive for my server to be. The pc is a P4 3.06 ghz with 4 gb of ram. I have found a number of posts on this forum, as well as on the net in general, about setting up a file/print server at home. What I want to be able to do is to access my server through the internet from my office computer (windows 2000) How can I do that? I have not yet spent much time trying to decide which distro I will use. It seems that a number of them are suitable for this purpose, so I just plan to try several from a live cd and then choose one.
