View 11 RepliesI have installed CentOS 5.4 machine named test.example.com (192.168.1.1)File /etc/hosts contains:127.0.0.1 test.example.com test localhost.localdomain localhostI have read that the loopback addres should not be assigned to host name,only to localhost and the host name should be assigned to 192.168.1.1, like this:127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost192.168.1.1 test.example.com testIs there any reason why it should be one or another way?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use ssh-keyscan to get some known_host file population going on, but I have a ton of hosts I want to scan, all with multiple aliases in /etc/hosts. Is there a way to use my current /etc/hosts file to do an ssh-keyscan instead of making a special list of hosts that (from what I've read) ssh-keyscan needs?

I have, I am assuming in it's place, hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Can anyone explain why I do not have a hosts file?

PS: I know FoxyProxy add-on for Firefox does this, but 1)I don't use Firefox and 2)I want the proxy settings system wide not only for browser.
I get the following prompt everytime I try to connect a server using SSH.
I type "yes", but is there a way to aovid this?
The authenticity of host '111.222.333.444 (111.222.333.444)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is f3:cf:58:ae:71:0b:c8:04:6f:34:a3:b2:e4:1e:0c:8b.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
I often manually add a troublesome domain (e.g., advertisements, fake virus alerts, etc.) to my /etc/hosts file on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid; but the effect isn't immediate.My hosts file is already fifteen thousand lines long (having combined all the hosts files I could find on the net, including the MVP one); but I still, almost daily, find a new irritant to add to my /etc/hosts file.My problem is I do not understand WHEN the /etc/hosts file is next read after a change.I've been rebooting to make sure the hosts is re-read; but there must be a simpler way.My question:
- WHEN is the /etc/hosts file reconsidered in Ubuntu?
- Is there a way to have the /etc/hosts file re-read sooner?
Is it possible to have different /etc/hosts file for different network connections without having to go in and change it every time? The why: I have dyndns and port forwarding to get to my desktop. My laptop is sometimes on the same network, and sometimes not. Also, sometimes the dyndns doesn't update properly, or the outside connection is down, but I want to get to my desktop (and I'm too lazy to walk up the stairs). I'd like to be able to keep one set of bookmarks, ssh command aliases, etc. that would always get to it the fastest and most reliable way possible.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI run a local apache server, that has some virtual hosts running. Now I want to be able to locally connect to these virtual hosts, but when I try this, it puts www and .com behind the url and says it can't find it. On Windows I know the equivalent, editing the hosts file. Is there something similar in linux?

I just have a caching nameserver on my Fedora PC:
I configured my DNS server addresses in the Network-Manager Applet: 127.0.0.1, 8.8.8.8
Even with Wireshark, I can see it:
So the big question: Why don't the host command or my web browser recognize that I have modified audit.median.hus IP address?
I have set up SSH and redirected the ssh server to listen on another port other than 22 for a bit of added security.
Now in hosts.deny I have:
ALL : ALL
In hosts.allow I have:
SSH : ip_address_of_client
I can no longer connect. I get the message: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host.
When I change hosts.allow to read:
ALL : ip_address_of_client
I can successfully connect the server.
However, I only want to allow SSH access in hosts.allow. What is the correct syntax?
I have tried and failed with each one of these:
SSH : ip_address:port_number
SSH2 : ipaddress
sshfwd-portnumber : ip_address_of_client
I'm not sure if this is best done in Perl or Bash. I'm thinking surely someone else has created something close to what I'm looking for. The results of the script would be that someone would kick off "linux_hosts.sh" r whatever you want to call it, then a top "folder" of options (with hosts contained within each of these top menu choices), then, based on which number corresponds to that top level, they're presented with a set of linux hosts that are relevant to that top level name. Example:
$ linux_hosts.sh
1. VMware hosts 4. Private Domain
2. ESX servers 5. Red Hat boxes

apache virtual host to limit the concurrent connections of virtual hosts? Taking into account the host of each virtual user's home directory can also have more than one subdirectory, which should be restricted to a subdirectory. Is beyond the control of the operation of these sites in a subdirectory. Best local restrictions or limitations to the overall situation.

I have 2 virtual hosts (example1.com, example2.com). example1.com works but example2.com is sent to the index file of example1.com. I did some searching on google and it seems the problem might be with my /etc/hosts file.
First virtual host that the second is also directed to...in sites-available/sites-enabled (note port 80 is blocked by my isp so I use 8080)
Code:
Second virtual host file

And my hosts file
Code:
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
Also I'm using a dyndns.org...would that make a difference?
I've found that changes configured in my hosts file are not being reflected in my web browsers, but it is in the shell. For example... If I put the following in my /etc/hosts file

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. I have to make regular changes to my hosts file to test services, so this is quite a pain.
I've just configured my Linksys RVS-4000 router to syslog messages to remote syslogd server (i.e. my CentOS5 machine). Redirecting messages was easy, but now I'm having difficulties to redirect those same messages received from Linksys to a separate log file. By default, all these messages are logged to /var/log/messages, and after browsing manual pages for syslog, syslog.conf, and syslogd, came to suspect that what I want isn't possible.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was pondering over whether or not Linksys routers ship with a host file in it...if it doesn't, can you just manually add one via an FTP transmission?

Part of my test requires me to copy a file via RCP from one host to another host. I have two ubuntu boxes. I have allowed the subnet in the etchost.allow for ALL. I have installed rsh-server
When I try to copy the file it looks like it tried to use SCP instad of RCP because it connects to 22 instead of 544. Also note that traffic must be unecrypted thus me trying to use Is there anyway to make ubuntu go old school to allow me to use rcp instead?

I am working on a cluster for a molecular dynamics class and I have to edit my FORTRAN code (only the newest and best for me!). In order to get through to the cluster I have to ssh in. The network on which the cluster resides is behind a firewall, so I have to ssh through the firewall into the network first.
this is fine, I can login and move files and folders as needed, including sftp-ing into host 1, then into the cluster so I can transfer files from cluster to host and then host to me. This gets rather tiresome, so it would be nice to edit the files in place.
The problem is that when I access my code with emacs it launches the emacs client on Host 1, with no mouse support. I know the purists will howl about how I should be using keyboard shortcuts, but I am a chemist and not a programmer, so the mouse is very nice for me. Is there any way I can perhaps mount the cluster using sshfs so that when I open my code it launches a local instance of emacs? Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I thought it was network related.
I got a bunch of machines (~10) that I share with my co-workers. I have appropriate .ssh file(s) set up so I don't get prompt for password when I try to ssh.Currently I ssh into these hosts and then do a top to check the load before I start using the machine. Because I don't want to be on a busy host.Can someone show me how to write a script that find a least-busy host given a list of hosts to check? (hardcoded is fine)
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe internal network is behind nat done by the PC Router.The TP Link is recieving wireless signal from outdoors and it has switching and basic routing capabilities. I'm using the PC router for better routing options.PC Router (or R for short) is a triple-booting machine - Linux, FreeBSD and Windows. It has two lan cards - external (ext_if) - 100Mbps Realtek 8139 and internal (int_if) - 1Gbps integrated Realtek 8169.The problem is that all traffic from R to the network is slow - about 5-20K, while the traffic in the oppoiste direction is all right - about 10MB that is fine for 100Mbps cables, NICs and switches. The problem persist no matter the OS the pc R is running.I've tried some debugging on the situation as follows:
- put another PC at the place of R - everything is fine. That exclude the possibility of damaged cables, RJ-45s, switches and etc.
- connected both of the NICs to the Internet while the internal network is being disconnected and they both work fine (no delays)
- traffic shaping is not running
- there is nothing in firewalls except NATing the internal network (and it is working fine). Actually these firewall rules have been operational for more than months and everything was fine untill a week or two ago.
- changed the internal NIC with another
- connected the internal network directly to the TP and all of the PCs are getting good network performance. Then connected the R machine to the TP as well and there was good performance between the internal network PCs and R.
- R has good performance to the TP. In fact everything has good performance directly to the TP (when not connecting trough R).
- the problem persist only between R and machines from the internal network.
I made a script to backup file from each host with general password in local network. This script using SSH Pass and Rsync with this

I am trying to add subdomains on ubuntu 9.10 desktop edition and and I am not sure whether I need to add some info.(such as 127.0.0.1 sub1.example.com and so on) to the /etc/hosts file like the windows' windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts file. I used to use the wamp-server(on Windows 7), I needed to edit 3 files, httpd.conf, httpd-vhosts.conf and hosts. And almost every edit is made in the httpd-vhosts.conf file on wamp-serveriles should be edited? or what else should be done that I didn't mention?
