Once that's working, I want an NFS map back to the server for the users home directory.Can't find any really helpful howto's... wondering if anyone on here has done this?

CentOS 5 Server :: TFTP-server Unable To Send Files To Clients Outside It Subnet?
Sep 9, 2011I have tftp-server running on Centos 5. Clients which are on the same subnet as the server are able to get and put without problems.

May 13, 2011The server is booting up properly and the system is running. When browsing web sites on the sever and they seem to run fine. But when you make requests to it, it seems to take a long time to process stuff. Such as large mysql request. Even to the point it freezes. It seems that if you make a request of some sort it just over loads. I have checked the logs and the most I can get from it that one of my wiki sites that seem to be getting nailed with spam bots trying to getting which is one of the databaes that where repaired could be slowing it down A LOT. Now I did find a couple databases that where marked as crashed and they have been repaired. I am not really sure what is causes the errors since the HD space is fine, ram is fine, internet connection is fine...So I am not familiar with diagnoses linux as much as I am with a windows pc. I am not real shell friendly. I am not good with the basic troubleshooting commands to try and identify the source of the problem to correct it. Could anyone point me the way...
Thanks in advance and I apologize for being a ra-tard on these. I should know this stuff more than I do running a server like this. It was created in 2006 and has been problem free since. Another thing, mass emailing isnt working either. It may be mysqld related. Sorry for the fragments and such. It also seems the SMTP isn't working properly as well suddenly.
Another error I been seeing:
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 16 bytesPHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 16 bytes some times I see this as a 32 or 64 bytes as well.
FTP Connection: It is also slow when making ftp connects. It is extremly slow but they finally do complete. It can be just a simple connection to display content. Slow.
General :: Troubleshooting - Cannot Login To Server Via SSH/Console
Apr 5, 2011I 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

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?
Ubuntu Networking :: Server 10.04 Network Troubleshooting?
Sep 1, 2011I've got a server that I've been trying to get Ubuntu Server 10.04.01 LTS installed and running on and I've gotten incredibly close to having it work, but the Network is still giving me issues. The installer went off without a hitch (once I fixed some optical drive issues) and it has actually detected the "Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)" Dual-port onboard NIC which shows up when I run lspci. I statically assigned an IP, Subnet, DNS Server and Gateway to eth0 and things looked good. ifconfig showed that it was "UP", and I could ping localhost, but if I tried to ping anything on the LAN it said "Destination Host Unreachable".
Here's the ifconfig and lspci (snippet)

Server :: Troubleshooting/resolving Random Kernel Panic On Multiple?
Jun 22, 2010I'm having a strange problem on some of our Debian servers. It all started about three weeks ago when we moved our virtual environment (VMWare ESX3) from a SAN to a NAS (NetApp). At first I thought it had to do with that move but since the other 9 servers are working perfectly I eliminated that idea. For over a year all 12 Debian 5 servers have been working great without mentionable failures. All servers are (where) up to date with the latest patches. About three weeks ago I started having kernel panics with the following message on three of our servers:
Code:
Code: Bad EIP value
EIP [00000000] 0x0 SS:ESP 0068:f6d7da18
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt and other times it looks like just a dump of hexadecimal data. The only difference between those 3 servers is that they have several mounted shares connecting to the NAS using CIFS. So I was thinking that it might have to do with an update of some kind in regards to smb. I recovered an image from a month ago, before the troubles began, copied over the data and MySQL databases and configured the 'old environment with recent data' exactly the same with MySQL master-master replication, document synchronization and load balancing. This task I performed last night (no other way since it's a production environment). Up to this time neither of the two 'restored' servers had a kernel panic. The one that has not been restored is having one at random about every hour and a half. Following are the different versions between the 'at this time' working server(s) and the failing one:
Code:
FAILINGWORKING
samba-common 2:3.2.5-4lenny122:3.2.5-4lenny9

Ubuntu Servers :: How To Setup A TFTP Server
Nov 12, 2010I am trying to setup a TFTP server and followed these instructions in setting up TFTP-HPA.
[URL]
I pretty much followed every step but commented out these two lines from the /etc/xinet.d/tftp.
# only_from = 172.31.0.240/28
# interface = 172.31.0.252
Do we really need the lines if I am allowing any machine to connect? And I have only 1 network card. This is acting as a dedicated TFTP server.I ask as I get an error on the get and put commands as below:
tftp> get xxx.txt
tftp: error received from server <File not found>
tftp: aborting
However although it gives an error it DOES GET the file.The put command however does NOT put the file. I have nobody / nogroup setup for the directory permissions as well.
tftp> put .vimrc
tftp: error received from server <File not found>
tftp: aborting

View 1 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 Server :: Tftp Permission Denied?
Feb 3, 2010I'm trying to setup a network boot server and I'm having an issue with tftp. In the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file, I added the "-v" (verbose) option to the server arg line so that i could figure out what was happening. When i looked at the /var/log/messages log file, it let me know that permission was denied to /tftpboot/nbi_img.
So, in short, my problem is that tftp isn't working because it doesn't have permission to /tftpboot/nbi_img. I can't figure out why. I stumbled upon a site where the user figured out a temporary fix to this issue and what he did was disabled the xinetd service and typed the following command:/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -l -v -v -s /tftpboot/nbi_imgWhen I do this as well, it works! but only until I restart and then I have to do that again. Is there a way to be able to fix that for good?
Fedora Servers :: Unable To Setup Tftp Server?
May 10, 2010You are running tftpd as an on demand server i.e. it is only fired up when it is needed. Services run by xinetd are always run on demand. Have you actually tested if tftp on another system can access your PC i.e.

Debian Configuration :: How To TFTP Router Configurations To A Server In The Same Local Networ
Jul 27, 2010I'm trying to TFTP router configurations to a server in the same local network without having to first make files in the server's TFTP directory . The transfer of a config file from router to server works perfectly if I make a file with touch and then chmod the file with 777. I found information that says to use the -c or --create option in the TFTP configuration file (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa) if you want TFTP to work without having to create the files first. The problem is, I have set this parameter and restarted TFTP , but it is not working.
Here is my /etc/default/tftpd-hpa file:
# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
#TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/tftp"
