Server :: Working In Terminal Environment On Server ?
Jun 8, 2010
Running web service and dhcp only on 1pc of a 4pc lan. Optomized minimal slackware 13.1 install (no GUI)on 30g fireball for only one user (myself):
Question is howto work properly in terminal environment: the rule of thumb is not to work on system as root to maintain root's integrity; since i do not have /home for users - what identity do i create to work on files safely? Can you adduser identity without /home as to not work as root? I found 'netgroup' but i am not sure that setting up the id of other machines on lan is what need to do?

I have installed ubuntu-desktop and can log in fine. Whenever I start Synaptic, etc and am prompted for my password I am told it is incorrect. I reinstalled ubuntu server and tried the same thing with xubuntu-desktop and I experience the same thing.

I did a a basic install of postfix and dovecot instead of using courier-pop and courier-imap. This is only send and receiving e-mail locally within the test network 10.7.0.X and 10.0.0.X. I used:
[URL]
my postfix.conf is;
PHP Code:
[code]....
This is the error when I send an email from a local machine on the 10.0.0.X network.
PHP Code:
Jan 20 17:05:48 testbox postfix/smtpd[2491]: warning: Illegal address syntax from unknown[10.0.0.111] in MAIL command: <test@10.0.0.112>

Clean install of 10.04 Server 32 bit.Only services OpenSSH Server and Print Server.Machine boots and can be accessed through ssh.Virtual terminals (cntl-alt-1,2,3,4,... do not result in video to the monitor (no sync) or a display.If I type blind, I can log in, ssh back to my other machine, and create a file. So the virtual terminal is there and listening to the keyboard and running, just not creating a display.
This machine has been working fine with 08.10 for quite time up until yesterday, so I don't believe it is a hardware problem.Any ideas why the video on the virtual terminals would not work?

I love Ubuntu and last night I wiped crappy windows 7 off my laptop and installed and customised a beautiful Ubuntu 9 OS ( I tried the new 10.04 first but it had some issues for me ). Now, up here at work we got a Domain Controller that is running windows server 2008, I need to be able to RDP into it and mess with it, I tried to use the Terminal Server Client that comes with Ubuntu, and I can see the login screen just fine, but when I try to log in it says incorrect password and wont go through.
Just to make sure it was not my account that was the issue, I went to my boss and used his computer (a MAC running OSX) and I was able to get into the same server with the same credentials, so it has something to do with my computer not my account. Do any of you have any ideas on what the problem could be?

I own a VPS (Virtual Private Server) and I would like to install a desktop environment on it. After installing the desktop enviroment, I would like to install a VNC server on the VPS, after that I would like to be able to configure the VNC server remotely via SSH and then log in using VNC to connect to that VPS. Is that possible? The reason I wanted to do that is because I want to use their internet connection to browse the web, their speed is like 6 times faster than mine because they have backbone which I can't afford.

I am setting up a new infrastructure which led me to install BIND in a non active directory (new) environment.
With that stated I don't have any .com nor any domain setup so im unable to dig my network domain; Im only operating via workgroup.
Is it still possible to setup BIND dns even though I dont have a domain (i.e. csaa.com, csaa.net...etc) setup?
Reason being is I want to be able to ping host names/connect through host names and able to resolve then using BIND as my main name server.

I have been looking around the web and forums for a while for the best way to set up a development office. I havent really found many specifics. I am with a new company is just starting to really take their development services seriously. We've added a couple developers and designers in the last month. I am trying to figure out a the best way to set up our environment.
We have a couple dedicated virtual servers with Media Temple. Currently, we develop everything under a subdomain of a domain we set up for development. When the site is ready to go live we move the site to its own domain. I cant believe this is the best way to go about things. So, what do you guys suggest as a setup? Software, versioning, etc. We have the ability to setup a test server in house and then push out changes to the production server but not really sure if that is needed.
We do mainly Wordpress development. If this should be posted in another area,

I always have to google about setting environment path variables when I install new software. My basic problem is that I dont know whether these variables need to be set globally or not. I have read a number of mails/tutorials which say that Environment variables should be set by simply doing an export ..eg EDITOR=nano export EDITOR
additionally I have read that it should be written into /etc/bash.bashrc
But are these really global variables or local? I want the variables to be set
even after I have logged out.
so I could also write the variable here...
/etc/environment
or here
/etc/profile

I am having a problem with the xfs font server and the Xwindows environment. I'm using the RHL9 kernel with RTLinux, the application has been running fine for years on multiple systems, but recently we changed CPUs and now I'm periodically getting microscopic fonts (1 out of 5 reboots). The other times the fonts come up perfectly normal. I've tried changing settings for xfs and XF86Config but nothing seems to work. I've checked the system logs but haven't found anything. I'm running out of things to look for.

I have successfully installed XAMPP on CentOS. I can access PHPMyadmin from my browser. So my mySQL installation is OK. I need to set Environment Variable. I am confused about the path directory.
For an example in windows the path was:
%MYSQL_HOME% -------> C:xamppmysql
What will be the path for CentOS $MYSQL_HOME? Under LAMPP folder I did not see the "mysql" folder

I'm no expert on DHCP. My problem is that i have a CentOS 5.5 server on which i want to install a DHCP server. I have two NICs where eth0 has access to the internet and where eth1 should act as an DHCP server.
I have installed dhcpd and this is how my dhcpd.conf file looks like.
Code:
ifconfig looks like this
Code:
When i start dhcpd on eth1 i get no error messages but when i connect any devices to eth1 they don't get any IP. I cant find anything in any logs about devices trying to get an IP address. I dont have any firewall rules in iptables.

i compiled and install postfix, and i using relayhost that point to my ISP. but my "DNS server" is on the same server where is installed postfix. and there is running apache with vhosts so i have domain that hosted on same server and in zonefiles of my domain my MX records points to Google Apps, to google's MX servers. But when i try send E-mail via sendmail to mail@mydomainonsameserver.com it not deliver mail to Google Apps totally, if i try to send to another E-mail everything fine it deliver it. so finally i done research this problem in Internet. And find that need to disable deliver mail to localhost(localdelivery)as i think postfix understand that the domain point to the same server where postfix have itself. and try to deliver mail local. but zonefile MX record even the domain on same server can point to another server outside. So i disabled localdelivery in postfix. and problem not fixed

Before setting up a dedicated web- and mail-server system, I want to learn it by setting both up on my desktop environment. So far I can only find how-to's which are based on server install iso's.
Is it wise first to install a mail server by using i.e. [URL]. Get it up and running and then install a lamp server using [URL]
Both servers must use my own IP address which is related to my own domain xxxxx.com I also need to understand how to incorporated these.
My desktop is Ubuntu 11.04 2.6.38-8-generic x86_64.

I have been a RPM-based distribution guy for a long time (redhat,centos,suse). We have a large shared and dedicated web environment that is starting to require more and more linux. I am in a position to switch gears and move to ubuntu if it makes sense. Things that are important to me are:
1. ease of deployment (both servers and websites themselves)
2. patch management
3. documentation

Code:
Dom0 LAN IP ----> 192.168.1.1 Gateway (where reverse proxy is set)
DomU1 LAN IP ----> 192.168.1.13 (here myserver.com and site1.myserver.com both are hosted.)
Domu2 LAN IP ----> 192.168.1.17 myserver.com/site2 is here.
Configuration on Dom0 of sites site1.myserver.com and myserver.com
Virtual Host Configurations on Dom0 in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/myserver.com (on gateway)

LDAP is endlessly not working, due to difficulties to simply configure it. I even cannot make the first steps of the installations ... It seems so difficult ... After many howto, wiki, reading, re-reading the errors are still there, always different, and not working.Is there an admin, coming from hell, that made running a LDAP server for sharing the basic configuratin files /var.. /etc... of a working LDAP Server in a tar.gz?

Whilst I have used GUI-based Linux distros for the last few years, I am now struggling somewhat when it comes to setting up a server from the command line. All the howto's I've read so far tell you how to set up certain things, but I don't know what I actually need to set up.Rather than asking the same questions all over again on a forum like this, and generally being a bit of a noob, I wonder if there's a resource somewhere that someone could direct me to in order to know what I need to do to set up a fileserver.
The hardware is all done, and I will probably set up a router distro like IpCop to manage the network, but I'm rather lost as to what packages I need, and how to know what the server is/isn't doing.I've used plenty of command lines in the past (ms dos, amiga dos, BASIC programming etc), just not a linux command line. All I've ever done is mount a few drives, use nmap and started x
