FICS, Free Internet Chess Server, I have been trying all day to achieve this in one way or another, so far no joy. All I want is a simple way so my frien and I can play chess over the net. So I looked at php scripts. Nothing suitable, that I could find. I'd like a nice web interface. My thought figure out how to "talk" to gnuchess or whatever an write some php to talk to it. Xboard, html style. (Is there one?) Or run my own private chess server.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just set up a linux server which is acting as an internet gateway. For specific reasons, clients first make a vpn connection trough the internet to the linux server.
CLIENT ---->Internet----->Linux VPN Server ------> Internet
On the linux server iptables is configured for NAT. The problem is that the internet speed becomes slower than expected. I used windows and RAAS and the speed was pretty good. The server has only 1 NIC(eth0) and an alias interface is added to eth0. The alias is eth:0 with ip address 192.168.0.253
iptables config is as follows:
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -F INPUT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -F OUTPUT
iptables -P FORWARD DROP
iptables -F FORWARD
iptables -t nat -F
iptables -A FORWARD -d 192.168.0.0/24 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to MY_VALID_IP
Can any one suggest which versions and flavour of linux is best suitable for GATEWAY server or in which version and flavour of linux this gateway server is available, which is used for internet management with MAC locking.

Now ... this is what I want:
I want to use Linux OS (server or desktop editions) as Internet Gateway, I have less than 50 hosts (internet users) on my network, and I simply want to know what is the most convenient linuxs distro for me to work with as a beginner to install, configure and administrating a linux OS(working as an Internet Gateway).
Its a simple network, 50 users connected to a switch, the switch to a server (where I will run the linux OS), the server to a cisco router, the router to the internet line. (Any tips on what do I need to be able to configure firewall rules and user activity monitoring like I am used to do with ISA on windows server 2003).
Since I have a new internetaccount, 2 days ago, I have a problem on my server [Fedora Core 8]. I use it as a router.
eth0 is for the internet.
eth1 is for my LAN.
But since my new internetaccount my server uses eth1 for the internet. This is a line from my syslog:
Code:
NetworkManager: <info> Policy set 'System eth1' (eth1) as default for routing and DNS. I killed the NetworkManager daemon and now it works but this must not be the way to do it? Where do I tell my server that I use eth0 for routing and DNS?
What I need is some information to be studied and learned by me in order to be able to create with Ubuntu Server an Internet Gateway Server. From my ISP I get about 50 public routable IPs through DHCP. Into my LAN I need to forward this public routable IPs to machines but I want to be able to manage bandwidth and also to be able to enable or disable Internet access for every client machine. Maybe with subnets? Maybe with dchp really? It would be nice if it would possible through DHCP!

So i turn off the suse, switch all cables to the old fedora server, just turn it on fedora and internet works. Turn off fedora, connect suse, let it start and everythng ok...it happens all the times
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been beating my head for the last few weeks on this problem, (although I have been taking the wrong approach, it seems).
I need a gateway to direct web traffic to three separate servers/domains. I have been trying to do this with both a dns server and , (seperatly), apache server to forward requests. The dns server was a no go, and <i can only get apache to redirect http and ftp.
After Googling this ALOT, I believe that what I need is a gateway server to redirect my traffic to the 3 different servers. I have been reading about using using nat and iptables for this and was wondering if anyone had any advice/suggestions on this. The other thought I had was to use something like pfSense to create the gateway, but I am still reading the documentation, and I am unsure if this approach will work.
On a remote system, when all you have is the ssh CLI -
How do you find out the ip addresses for:the Gateway
the DHCP server
the DNS server
Don't need to make any changes.
Which commands will display this info?
Was wondering if anyone can explain briefly the relationship of "cache" and free memory in the "free" memory command.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a question on free disk space. I'm currently running CentOS 5.5 on in Xenserver virtual environment. We've had an issue with disk space. My question is as follows: - from a ssh connection i run df -h this gives the value of 90% used leaving me with 9GB. If I use system monitor via a VNC connection the free disk space value is 20GB free on the same volume. Which one is correct? I do use SNMP to monitor the same volume and should alert me when < 10% is free I know this works as I set the alert threshold to < 90% I get an alert.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI got 2 servers, each on different locations (server 1 and server 2). I want all traffic on server1 included web browsing, applications etc., be always going through server2, like a gateway. I want the traffic to be encrypted (maybe use VPN?) So if I browse, or any logs pick up ip adresses from applications used by server1, I want it to display the IP address from server2 (Might be the wrong way to say it).
I always wants server2 to act as an firewall and logserver that logs all the traffic. I was thinking about using Snort for IPS/IDS solutions and OpenVPN for the traffic, but what can I use as a firewall? Most firewalls I find on google has its own OS/Distribution. Maybe Squid for logs? But squid does not support much protocols. Distribution on both servers are updated Debian/Ubuntu based.
We are using Linux machine as a gateway server to connect our local network to wan. We use pptp vpn to connect our remote customers network, is it possible to connect VPN to the gateway and make local network to connect through it? So that there is no need to connect vpn in every local client.
View 3 Replies View Relatedsetup 2 gateway in my email server(opensuse).
now i wan to setup 2 internet lines for my email server, which mean that either one of the line is down, i still can receive mail from another line.
Example
Internet line 1 = ISP1
Internet line 2 = ISP2
my email server got 3 nic which...
eth0 = 192.168.1.2 (255.255.255.0) (from ISP1 GW 192.168.1.1)
eth1 = 192.168.2.2 (255.255.255.0) (from ISP2 GW 192.168..2.1)
eth2 = 168.168.1.2 (255.255.0.0) (connect to local LAN)
now existing GW set on the server is 192.168.1.1, mail receive and send through ISP1. now we wish to set somethings that once the ISP1 line is down, the server will auto switch to ISP2 gateway and continue send and receive mail without manually change of settings

I have set up qmailtoaster as a gateway for exchange.
my smtproutes contain this:
thedomain.com:mail.exchange.com
and my rcpthosts contain:
thedomain
The problem I am facing now is, the exchange was able to send mails through me alright. But when mails come in, qmailtoaster is suppose to forward the mails to the exchange server but it is not, rather the mails are sitting in the toaster's queue.
Basically I'm working as part time administrator in a company, and still am at college. To keep the story short, the company I work with used to have a linux gateway, namely Untangle. We tried to upgrade to E-Box, which is supposed to have more options than Untangle, but it doesn't seem to work as it should. What I'm trying to ask here is this. I need a gateway system that handles QoS, Content filtering, Mail Filtering, DNS, Wan failover / load balancing, LOGS (important), Firewall and maybe the handling of separate users or groups. The ideal solution would be one that like the E-box, has a central control system, without the need to adjust code in CLI for configuration. I have some experience on CentOS and Fedora, so I am able to do some configuration, like installing Samba, DHCP and VNC.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have been searching google for a while now and have not found exactly what I am looking for. I would like to use my fresh install of ubuntu server 11.04 as my router/gateway for my home. I am not an expert at linux by any means but I can usually figure stuff out. I believe I need iptables, bind, and a few others probally. It eventually will also be a samba server but I have done a little with samba before. I do have 2 network cards, my router at the moment is starting to die and would love to have a more powerful router. I would also like to figure out how to do port forwarding in the router, as well as be able to see the load on the network cards. Maybe there is a program to show usage by user? As well as be able to do packet pritorization.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to do is setup a gateway(or router, idk what Ubuntu refers to it as.). So my set up would be Modem>Server>Switch>Router. I know that I need to set up it up as a DHCP server as well. I would also like to setup it up as a firewall too. I already have two Gbit cards that are already configured. So how do I do this? I already tried one tutorial, but it was old and was for Debian. I also installed ebox, but I couldnt figure that out either.
