My network connction does not allow for passive ftp. Does yast repository ftp access need to be passive?
I am using vsftp as the server on opensuse 11.2
Currently in order for this to work I have to open a temp rule to allow passive ftp.
Just tried to rsync /repositories/server:/monitoring for SLE 11.1 which is visible through http [URL], but when I browse through [URL] the SLE_11.1 directory isn't there.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWondering if someone can lend some insight or point me in the right direction. I'm trying to use OpenSuSE 11.2 to host a master copy of a git repository. I'm guessing that I've still got a disconnect with xinet.d starting the git-daemon in response to a port 9418 request as I never see git show up as a process, even though I see in the message logs, the remote machine making the network request.

And will it cause any problems if it can be done?
Add to your repositories
perl
and manually
"http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/security/SLE_10/"

i want to create Central Opensuse repository for Patch management just like WSUS in windows,which automatically downloads Updates/Patches and distribute to the Clients locally.

Last week I successfully configured a local repository for CentOS. I did it because I'm teaching a course with this distro. I am also teaching another course with opensuse, sadly, I could not configure a local repository for opensuse. I thought this would be easier. Local internet connection is very slow, so I need to configure the local repository. I have searched for information on the novell site and find nothing.
View 6 Replies View Relateda friend of mine is doing a small website-project in school (group of ~6 people). They want to use git as VCS and need acces to a server. I have an account on the server from university, but - of course - no root access.
I could create private/public keys for them, to SSH into my account, but I don't want them to have this power I found 'git-shell', which seems to be used for restricted access with git (although I'm not sure whether I understood the functionality).
My question is: Is it possible to configure SSH keys in that way, that the server runs them (and only them) in git-shell in a specified directory (using ~/.ssh/{config,authorized_keys})?
So that they can
- log in with their SSH key
- use git, execute scripts etc.
- use git push/pull from their private+school PC
- work only in a specific directory (like chroot) eg. ~/web-project/

I'm new to networks and servers, been using Linux on the desktop for a while now but always relied on the company's IT guy for setting up everyting LAN-based.
Now I want to build up my home LAN, and want to do it with Linux. I've managed to set up LAMP and file share servers.
What I am looking for is information on what I need, and how to set up a server for the following tasks:Centralized Username and Password, that when the user logs into any one of the desktops in the LAN, it uses this for authentication
Something that allows this authentication to be utilized in other servers (file access, web access, router logging, etc.). Something to make it easier for continuing permissions from one service to another. e.g. I have IPCop filtering content, and it has provisions for tracking who is making which request if there is authentication going on. (optionally) to run a script for mounting Samba shares or mapped network drives so from one system to the next. For example, in whatever box somebody logs in, it mounts a server share ("smb://Myserver/users/<username>") to a local folder ("my_user_share").
So;user "fred" ="smb://Myserver/users/fred" and user "wilma" = "smb://Myserver/users/wilma" but both would find their respective one mounted under "~/my_user_share". This would be irrespective of which box they are loggin in with. If the server share location changes (new server/servername), I change it on the server so the next time they log in it points to the right place.
I guess it is similar to Window's Active Directory, though I'm not sure what it's called, how to configure it and what it is and is not capable of doing.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I installed OpenSUSE 11.1 on my server, at some point, I gave the server a description. Whenever I connect to any of the shares on the server, this description appears. For example, on one Windows workstation, there is a share which appears in Windows Explorer as "Midwest on 'Cincinnati Corporate ISS Server (ISS0042)' (T:)".
For the life of me, I cannot find where this description, "Cincinnati Corporate ISS Server", is stored. I've search through /etc, and poked around ad nauseum in YAST, but I am missing it. Where is this description stored? What is the YAST function to change it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI setup a debian home server some time ago and have successfully setup samba so my windows machines can access them and upload/download data off it.I have setup opensuse on this desktop and after allowing smb through the firewall I now seem to have read only access to the smb shares.I am using the same username and password as I do on my windows machine, so in theory smb server should see my username and password and allow me read/write, like it does in win7. Is this correct?
Having just thought about it I think samba is just a tool to get shares working between linux/windows and macos.Is samba even the best tool for linux - linux sharing? how do I get read/write access to my shares in opensuse?or do I use another program to see my shares?I'm a bit new to this linux- linux sharing so I apologies.
I have to wonder how much testing Opensuse has done with yast-dns-server package. After adding zones to the dns server - the system loses the ability to perform name resolutions. I can copy a named.conf file from a system that does work, except everytime the system is restart the named.conf file is rewritten trashing the updates done and again rendering the system to perform name resolutions.
Anyone have suggestions on how to get yast-dns-server from interferring with the configuration file? I tried just uninstalling the package, but then bind doesn't even start up on boot up.
I know little if anything about svn, so need your assistance. I have a linux server running svn. I have a Windows server running svn. First, I'm looking for a way to copy an svn repository from the linux server to a new Windows server repository. I've looked for how to do this on the Internet and within the Apache.org website(which is now the maintainer of SVN).
I haven't found anything on a very granuler way to copy a repository from one O/S to another other than folks say it can be done. Not how.
Second, is there a way to automatically do this on a regular basis? I see the manual process of svnadmin dump and svnload. Also there is a manual process of svnadmin hotcopy.
I am using RHEL5 and I did a createrepo -v --update /var/www/html/yum/base/5Server/x86_64/rhel-x86_64-server-5/getPackage/ and the output was

Now is that a error? I didn't press Ctrl-C or anything like that, it just finished that way. I have a local yum repository and I use reposync to sync up my local repository with the Red Hat network. Everytime I pull down the updates from Red Hat I used createrepo with no options but wanted to try the --update to see how much time it would save. Anyone have any ideas why it is it was "Killed"
I have a home network which is protected by a dedicated firewall pc running pfSense. I have an opensuse 11.2 webserver on the home side of the firewall. Is it necessary to run the a firewall or setup iptables on the opensuse box?At some point I intend to port forward through the firewall to the web server so it can be accessed via the internet. Access to the web server will be password protected as its only for myself and my business associates to connect to.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a thorough document that explains:
1) Creating a local repo
2) Using kickstart to access that repo
3) Performing a network install using kickstart
Some background: I have several racks of servers that I need to install Fedora on. These servers CANNOT be placed on the internet; hence the need for the creation of a local repo on some other machine (which will be connected to the servers via a local network). I am not sure how to create a local repo, so that one of my questions.
I'd also like to automate as much of the install as possible and kickstart is the only thing I know of for that. I am no guru with kickstart, but I have used it before to successfully install Fedora Core 6 -- I am hoping there are no great changes with the current releases of Fedora (12-14)?
A local repo of Fedora Core 6 was created by someone (some time ago) on a workstation (running FC6). This is what I've used in the past to install FC6 on previous servers (via a kickstart CD). However, I dont have the documentation on how the repo was created or how the kickstart CD was created I've gleaned some ideas ok kickstart from the pieces I've read on web, but none of it has been specific to the latest releases of Fedora.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am setting up a LAMP server for the first time and ran into an install problem for my application. Several directories for my app need write permission for the web server. The instructions say:"In linux, recommend changing owners of these directories to the web server. For example, in many linux OS's the web server user is apache', 'nobody' or 'www-data.' So, if apache were the web server user name, could use the command 'chown -R apache:apache directory_name' command.
I've tried all three, but with no luck. I haven't yet changed any server default settings. So, my question: what is the default server name in opensuse 11.2?
