I have a website on a shared hosting and the domain name of this website is hosted by the shared hosting company too. This domain name has :
- One ip address and two name servers
- ns1.companyname.com and
- ns2.companyname.com
Both name servers pointing to different ip addresses. Now I have a VPS server running on Debian 5. The new hosting gave me two ip's for this VPS.
Now I want the domain name to point to the VPS, I asked both hosting providers for the VPS and the shared hosting which host the domain name, the shared hosting tell me that it is very easy what you want to do and possible, you have just to point the domain name to the new ip of the VPS and all is fine, the seem thing confirm the VPS provider too.
Now as I have two ip's I am confusing, first :
- Which ip should I indicate when setting the domain name to point to ? because VPS has two.
- Once I point the domain name to the new ip, is there a further configuration to take on setting on the VPS ? for example should I indicate the name servers ns1.companyname.com and ns2.companyname.com on the VPS or it is not necessary ? the hosting tell me that the problem is solved once I point the domain name to the VPS ip.
- To connect to console by ssh, I am free to choose one of the two ip's of the VPS or there is just one which work for console ?
Since a few weeks I cannot open a console in vmware server 2.0.2 anymore. I don't know exactly when this started because I use vmware only occasionally (I have only 1 program (an old Ashlar DrawingBoard) which does not run properly in wine). VMware server and the console have been working before without problems, but now I get the message "Cannot connect virtual machine console." and it times out. This is on Opensuse 11.1 with VMware Server on the same pc, Firefox and the guest is Windows2000.
I have tried to disable all extensions in firefox 3.6, disabled the firewall, even created a new user (on the same pc) with a clean firefox, all without any result. However when I connect from a different computer which runs Internet Explorer under windowsXP, then I can get the console without problem.
So, somewhere there is something wrong between Firefox and VMware server.
I am trying to connect to serial console, local one, just to verify than it works, is is possible?Well, I configure serial console
Code:
# ttyS0 - getty # # This service maintains a getty on ttyS0 from the point the system is # started until it is shut down again.
[code]...
It is started, now I am trying to connect to the console via minicom, is it possible from machine where the console is running?If not, how could I check it remotely?
The title pretty much says it all. Once I get past GRUB, the font becomes HUGE and starts off screen. It appears to be center zoomed because I cannot see the login prompt nor anything I type. It's not really an emergency, I installed OpenSSH during the OS installation and can just turn it on and log in over SSH or start up Webmin. It just bugs me that I cannot figure this out.
There is no graphical environment installed, so it's not a video card issue. I tried adding vga=ask as a kernel flag and then tried several options, but to no avail.
How can I start a program from tty1 console text mode to be executed in tty2 console text mode? Actualy I would like to start a program (chat client cli program) in tty8 automaticaly when linux PC boots.
I'm trying to set up an intercepting proxy and web filter (squid+dansguardian is the plan), using firehol for firewall configuration, on Ubuntu Karmic.The client computers access the web through the proxy with no issue. But the server console cannot, though it can ping and DNS lookup.
I really don't know what to make of this. I have just installed Lucid Server onto my first generation Mac G5 (1.6 uni). The install went fine & the system rebooted...
The first problem:
Fatal errors encountered installing thermal control. All the windfarm modules failed, but judging by the fact the mac doesn't sound like a jet engine, thermal control /is/ working.
The second problem:
After this, it brings up the splash screen & then the console goes dead. No keyboard, no display, no nothing; it looks like the system has hung. But... SSH is working. The system is up and as responsive as it should be!
I've tried adding video=ofonly to yaboot.conf and zapping the pram, but it made no change.
I've got a home server running ubuntu 10.0.4. It have no monitor or keyboard. So I want to access it from a serial console. (I use SSH currently but if something goes wrong, I need to be able to do something... so serial console seems a fine thing). OK, so on the server, I tell grub to output everything on ttyS0 and opened a getty on ttyS0. On the client side (Laptop running Ubuntu 10.0.4 with pl2303 USB to Serial adapter) I use Minicom.
Home server restart:I see grub menu, linux kernel messages, login prompt. But, I can't do anything:In grub or at the login prompt, no key press is recognized by the server.I've got write permission to /dev/ttyUSB0. I tried a different getty (mgetty)with no success.I stopped the getty on ttyS0 on the server. And run minicom.
From the server's minicom, if I type something, it appear on the client screen. From the client's minicom, if I type something, some garbage appear on the server screen :(One of this things for each char typed). If I short-circuit pin 2 and 3 of the client serial port, it echoed what I type. The two serial ports are connected with a nullmodem cable. (seems to be a full handshaking cable). Of course, same serial port config for both minicom, grub and getty. Hope I'm understandable enough. (English not my primary language). Can somebody help me make this *$*#! serial console working right ? I'm on it for 10 hours now with no success...
Edit : I nearly forgot to tell you I had to update the standard ubuntu kernel to 2.6.34-020634rc1-generic because there was a bug in the pl2303 driver in the stock kernel (2.6.32-25-generic) which prevented me from doing anything (even receiving).
every time I try to connect to the ftp server I setup i am recieving this error Response:*** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/sbin/vsftpd terminated Error:Could not connect to server
I have a headless server, and I want to prevent GDM 2.30 from starting the graphical login on the console screen. As I use XDMCP, I still need GDM running on the server... With previous versions of GDM, I was doing that through gdmsetup, which ended with these lines in /etc/custom.conf :
Code:
[servers] 0=inactive
but it seems that it's not working anymore with 2.30...
I got two computers with the exact same symptoms today: Both seem to be alive. They answer pings and they host virtual machines which are working. However, I cannot login via SSH. I get
$ ssh -v obelix OpenSSH_5.3p1 Debian-3ubuntu6, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009 debug1: Reading configuration data /home/mike/.ssh/config debug1: Applying options for obelix
[code]....
On the console I can switch the ttys and enter my login credentials. After that I see the GNU/Debian Linux welcome message an no prompt. The system seems to hang. I'm able to switch the tty again and login with the same result. (I tried that three times now and I start running out of ttys.) A search on the Internet suggested some ressoucre shortage. How could I release some resoucres than? How could I further investigate the situation before just trying a hard power off?
When I run 'sendmail -bv', it sends the mail delivery status report as a mail to the root. Is there a way I can redirect this to the console instead of sending as a mail. requirement is to programatically find the mail host of the recipient for which I thought of using this 'sendmail -bv' command. Is there any other better way to find mail host of the recipient
I have a KVM server and am trying to add a new VM. The problem is I am unable to connect to the consle to finish the installation. I have put the details of the steps I took and my ssh config file for clarity. It seems I have a problem with a vnc 'security type'.
Code: $ virt-manager -c qemu+ssh://root@phoenix:2200/system [Prompt for password and connects OK]
KVM Server Code: # virt-install --connect qemu:///system -n web -r 1024 --vcpus=1 -f /dev/vms/web_os -s 5 -c ~ecosta/debian-504-amd64-netinst.iso --vnc --noautoconsole --os-type linux --os-variant debianLenny --accelerate --network network:default --hvm Starting install... Creating domain... 0 B 00:00 Domain installation still in progress. You can reconnect to the console to complete the installation process.
client I can see the new VM but when I chose to open the console, the password is asked again and again without a successful connection to the console. The following is what I found in the log. virt-manager log: .....
I then tried to make an ssh tunnel and use vncviewer to connect:

I'm trying to setup PS3 media server on my new OpenSuse 11.2 and I'm being unable to connect to the PS3. The multimedia server seems to being working ok, only it has not appear on XMB.
I've been searching on PS3 Media Server forums and try a couple of solutions regarding /etc/hosts and adding full qualified domain name of server to it, but it doesn't seems to work.
I cannot use cvs within eclipse to connect to the server, but when I use cvs in terminal everything works fine.

I just did "do-release-upgrade" from ubuntu 9.10 > 10.04 > 10.10 > 11.04 which successful but after a restart, no login console just a blinking underscore. However I still able to login to server using ssh. During the boot I saw this failure "Starting system V runlevel compatibility [fail]".
I installed latest stable debian lenny. However when I want to switch to a virtual console by pressing Alt+Ctrl+F(1-6) the X server is restarted and I get the gdm login screen. When I kill gdm, virtual console switching works fine. How to switch a to a terminal and return to my X session by pressing Alt+Ctrl+F7?
I know there are ways to change the login of a linux box (runlevel 3) so that you don't see the regular login prompt but that you get a list with options. You see this with appliances.
My goal is to create a login like some of those appliances have. Instead of just getting a login prompt you can select several options like login, change network configuration, change password, stuff like that. How can I do this? Is there an Open Source tool to configure this?
I run a custom build of linux running kernel 2.6.24 and busybox. At the moment I'm investigating a kernel panic. The problem is that after 10 minutes the screen is blanked, i.e. it is still on but has been turned black. If you press a key then the command prompt is shown once again, but if the kernel has crashed then this won't work and any info about the panic is inaccessible. So I'd like to prevent the display being blanked. I've tried booting with 'apm=off' and 'apm=off acpi=on' kernel parameters but neither had any effect.
when the user clicks a button (assume war application) and the action'system.out.println' a message, how can I *remotly* read this message (read the message from a different computer instead of the server)?when I use the eclipse, I can read it from the console but if I'm in adifferent location, how can I see this message remotely?I'm thinking about remote debugging (JPDA), however, it's very difficult to configure in order to make JPDA run. I tried based on tutorial of google search, bug failed.I wonder if remote debugging can actually solve my problem. If not, is there any other to solve
I just install xen and kernel-xen version 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5xen, booting into the xen kernel dom0 shows me continous colorful scrambling and scrolling. I can ssh to dom0 and get correct display but the dom0 console is where it shows the colorful garbage scrolling. i have the Supermicro X7DC motherboard with a XGI Z9 graphics card. GUI is not installed and I don't have the rhgb parameter in my grub.conf. My grub.conf is plain and unmodified.
I would like to connect via SSH or similar to my servers located in a remote DC from a laptop running centos5. I normally do this on a puter running dows, and using secureCRT. Just wondering if centos has something built in for this, or if there is some preferably free software I can get.
I'm using a dell latitude d630 with an nvidia quadro 135M card. I'm able to suspend without any problems while running the X server. If I try to suspend on console without the X server running, the laptop wakes up to a blank screen. The screen remains blank and my only resort is to type sudo halt (with the screen off).I'm using the proprietary nvidia driver with the nvidia-kernel package on testing.
