Networking :: Remotely Accessing Machine With Dynamic IP?
May 27, 2010
I want to access and run some programs in the terminal on my office Linux machine from my home through Internet. I use Fedora 10. However the internet connection at office has dynamic IP.Is it possible to access remotely a terminal on machine which has Dynamic IP addresses? How?
I am trying to set up a ssh server on my desktop computer. It runs Ubuntu 10.04 with Win 7 (dual boot). I want to ssh into my desktop from any other machine (from anywhere), and I'm not sure if setting up a ssh server is the right thing to do. Also, is it secure? what kind of encryption does it use
I had a look through a tutorial video showing how to set up Samba, and the end result was the only shared file/folder showed up on Windows. I want a direct access to all the files and folders like you can do from Windows to Windows, by signing in the user account from another system. And likewise I want access to all Ubuntu files and folders of a user account through Windows.
We are organizing an event for Open Source technology in college for 100 students and want to provide them access our corporate PC. Our aim is to provide them remote access to few 10-20 machines in our corporate to try out our product which runs on specific hardware.Anyone who can suggest me any secure colloborative tool which will let those students access concurrently.
The why behind this is a little long winded so let me get to the technical question. I have a 16 GB SD card in my netbook as additional storage to the 16 GB SSD drive. The SD card is formatted fat32 (by a utility from sdcard.org which is supposed to and does make the card read and write faster than if it was formatted by the OS). The card mounts when I login to the netbook. The entry from mtab shows
ken@taylor13:/media$ ls -l drwx------ 3 ken ken 32768 1969-12-31 19:00 SD16
sudo chmod 777 SD16 does not change the permissions.
The problem is I need to connect to the machine with a different user (due to a security hole in gnome-commander). As the card is formatted fat I cannot assign group permissions to it and my second user cannot access it.
I had previously had the card formatted as ext3 and it was so slow as to be unusable. It needs to be formatted fat. I am stumped.
I have an application running on a centOS machine that needs to access a database on a CentOS server. I granted access to all users with a certain user name and password.i opened up port 3306 as well with the following command: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --destination-port 3306 -j ACCEPTbut whenever i try to connect from my machine i get an error:ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '172.16.102.129' (113)I am using mysql version 5.0.77 on centOS 5.5.
I'm not terribly new to Linux, but I am new to the forums, so hear me out! I am in the process of creating an electronic mapwall for our meteorology program, and have designed the computing system from scratch. I have two Linux Boxes, each with capabilities for 6 attached monitors...a total of 12 displays driven from two machines. My intention is to have one machine be the master...it has a touchpanel control. The inputs to the touchpanel will then trigger events for the both the master and the slave machine to display. Each of them has a specific IP address (DNS entry), and are not on a subnet.
Now...is there a way to remotely login to the slave machine and have it display on it's OWN monitors? The code is Java and which works on the master machine to animate directories of .gifs for each of the master's attached monitors. I will most likely have Java execute shell commands for the remote login (ssh), but I believe the answer lies somewhere in the X-configuration. Do I have the machines in an adverse configuration (creation of a subnet would be better)? Lots of questions...lots of desire...few answers!
I've been looking for a way to use my laptop (running Ubuntu) to help service a remote laptop (running Windows XP). I've used TeamViewer and Cisco's VPN Client before, but TeamViewer is Windows only, and I don't want to pay for a Cisco system just to help maintain my friend's computer.
Ideally, I'm looking for something similar to the programs listed above, but I really just want to know if any of you have done this before, and if so, how?
I'm a computer technician and I'm interested in learning Linux. I did some research about the different distributions last night decided to try Fedora. I downloaded the latest version of it and installed it onto a brand new machine in my office. Is there a website out there that I can use as a guide for all of the Linux commands. I know that if I wanted to I could just learn my way around the gui, but I want to REALLY learn Linux. I also want to be able to telnet into the machine so that I can access it remotely. How can I set that up? I installed Fedora with all of the default settings and didn't change anything.
I have been trying to shutdown a remote XP machine but cannot get it to budge. I did the following on the Windows box:
Ensured no firewall Started Remote Registry Editing service Shared a network drive (to enable file sharing?) Created a user 'shutdown' specifically for shutting down Added 'shutdown' to Administrators group Added 'shutdown' to the list of allowed shutdown users in gpedit.msc
I am new to Xen Hypervisor and wanted to know if someone has any good guides to configuring it please. Also once i configure a Guest OS how can i connect to it remotely via a windows and linux machine?
I'm in the situation where I'm trying to create 2 private networks using ESX server, all behind a NAT router (static ips are used). I used an openSuse11 vm as a router and was able to configure it so that a machine on one private network was able to access the public network. The problem I have now it that I need to be able to access a machine on the private network from the public network using a different set of IP's.
So if a machine in the private network has an IP of 10.1.0.222 I should be able to ping it using 10.99.0.222 or some other IP. I have never done this before and after reading up on iptables and linux routing I feel more confused than before. Is it possible to add IPs to eth0 (public) and have them mapped to machines on a private network eth1 or eth
I have installed Tomcat on an Ubuntu 9.10 machine and previous to now I have been able to access the website from any other machine within the network. I suddenly am no longer able to do this.I also noticed that on the local machine I can access usinghttp://localhost but not by doing http://172.16.7.62 (again, from the local machine), should that work (assuming that it is the correct IP address of the machine)
I want to restrict the Visitors to my Webserver whom i want to give access But the persons whom i want to give access. have Dynamic IP. I want to use DynDNS and update IP address of person. Based on the Hostname Pointing to Dynamic address of person.
i have two machines at home running ubuntu linux and windows connected by lan. on ubuntu machine i have mysql installed, how do i go about accessing ubuntu mysql database on my windows machine.
I installed Tomcat5.5.23 on CentOS5.2 running on Sun xVM Virtual Box2.1.2. When i try to view Tomcat( Running in Vitual Centos)'s home page in the web browser of Host( XP sp2) am getting the "Connection Time out" error.. How to resolve this problem.
My Centos machine lies on a different location with a dynamic IP. How can access it remotely considering the fact that I am unable to acquire a static IP.
I am trying to keep linhost274.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net (IP 208.109.14.77) from accessing my machine. Several times per evening (as far as I see) it connects to my machine, each time on a different port, and pushes up data transfer. I can't find what it does, it just pushes a GB or more over the line and then stops. I try to keep it out with UFW:
I was looking for:how to access my Linux machine(OpenSuse 11.3) that is being hosted at my hoster company from my home Win Pc, I found TightVNC , but I am confused, should I install it on both systems ( viewer and server) ? .. what about the VirtualBox , can i Access with that tool or it is only for mounting the local Virtual Machines?
I've setup dynamic port forwarding using Putty, SSH and Firefox.All works well when visiting normal websites (servers listening at port 80). But why can't I visit https websites?Nothing seems to be happening when I visit those.
I've read some guides on how to setup ssh with dynamic DNS, but can't seem to get it to work. My Linksys router is currently set to forward port 22, so I don't know why SSH still gives:
ssh admin@xxx.hopto.org ssh: connect to host xxx.hopto.org port 22: Connection refused In particular, I also have openssh-server running on the target machine. Given that I have port forwarding enabled, why would this be happening? If I try to login directly to the IP, I get the same refusal.
My university uses 802.1x Dynamic WEP, with PEAP, MSCHAPv2, and no CA certificate. Our IT department actually provides instructions for Ubuntu, and they work, but I can't get it to work in Kubuntu. Here's the instructions using the Gnome Network Manager applet:
- Change the LEAP setting to Dynamic WEP (802.1x). - Change the Authentication setting from TLS to Protected EAP (PEAP). - Leave the Anonymous Identity option blank. - Leave the CA certificate setting to None. - Change the PEAP version to version 0 if running 8.10, or Automatic if running 9.04+. - Leave the inner authentication setting to MSCHAPv2. - Enter your username. - Enter your password. - Select OK. A warning message will appear about having no certificate; click Ignore. - Click Connect.
I'm using Kubuntu 10.10. All the same settings are there for the KDE plasma network manager applet, but the connection always fails immediately. How do I go about debugging this? Is there a way to test this out from the command line? (WiFi in general works fine, on regular WEP and WPA secured networks; just having trouble with this one).
I am looking for a way to be able to access my PC from a remote place. The problem is that I have a dynamic IP. I have registered at dyndns and have found settings in the router to 'Activate Dynamic DNS' and then you supply your dyndns address, password and tell it to update the WAN ip address automatically. This works, however only internally and only to the router as opposed to my PC I am not interestes in accessing the router to configure that remotely, only accessing my own PC.
Is this something I can accomplish with: A ZyXEL P-660R-D1 router A dynamic WAN IP address A PC connected to the router A static IP address for my PC
