Ubuntu :: How To Change Localhost For External IP
Jan 2, 2010
I have a problem with showing localhost (my website is on it) on the internet, so that everyone can see it. On Windows all you have to do is:open httpd.conf change ServerName 127.0.0.1 for your own IP and it works.On Linux there is is empty httpd.conf, and configuration file apache2.conf doesn't have any address to change.It looks like, that I have to enter my IP somewhere or some of my settings are wrong:first computer (vista) second computer (ubuntu 9.10), cable net providerwhat I did:-activated DMZ, in my router settings and added Host IP Address: 192.168.1.100 -active dhcp (no changes)Windows side:in TCP/IPv4 instead of automatic ip and dns I have entered my own:
Address IP: 192.168.1.103
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1

I am a newbie in Linux. I have Fedora 13 OS 32 bits. I am working with PowerDNs and Poweradmin. How can I configure this with PowerDNS?
1. Allow localhost recursion but deny recursion to external clients. Is there a tutorial for that?
2. Set up cache nameserver for localhost (like caching-nameserver in Bind).
Is there a tutorial for that?
3. My Master Server with PowerDNS is working well from localhost but external clients cannot access it.
I have iptables with these rules:

This is a RHEL 5.4 install. I did a fairly routine install setting up a static IP address of 10.5.96.10, a subnet mask of 255.255.254.0, and a gateway of 10.5.96.1 with the standard DNS setup for this network. These are all standard network setting for this network and otherwise work fine on other systems. The IP, gateway, and subnetmask all appear correctly on all relevant configuration files. This server can not ping any other system on the network and can not ping its default gateway. No other systems can ping this one either. Also this system can not ping "localhost" or its own hostname. The hosts file contains the line:
[code]...
I can ping 127.0.0.1 and 10.5.96.10 and it works fine. Also the firewall is disabled. I know I probably can't get a straight forward fix with the information I have on hand right now, I'm more of a Debian guy, so there might be some Red Hat intricacies I'm not familiar with. I think I had a CentOS install some months back that had this issue and I don't remember how I fixed it, or if I even did. I might have just replaced it with Debian. That's unfortunately not an option this time around since it's not my box.

I have an external hard drive with an xfs partition on it. It was using an external journal, but in re-installing Slackware I removed the partition holding the external journal, forgetting what it was at the time. I didn't touch the contents of the external hard drive, but now I can't mount it and the various xfs programs seem to demand that it be mounted in order for them to change anything.Anyone have any ideas on how to change an xfs partition from external log to internal? Failing that, how do I get the information off it?

I have setup a Linux Centos with apache server on it in a home network. Everything works fine. When I access the webserver I put in the address bar the IP address of the server which is 192.168.0.150 and when hit enter, it prompts the page where I have to put login information. The login information is set to: username: admin@localhost.local password: *************
It takes long time for authentication go through and load the page eventhough I am accessing the site in a same home local area network with fast ethernet connection. How can I change the localhost.local to something else like maybe [URL] instead and if I have to change settings in other files as well?

I have a WD external HD that I had set up with Mandrivia 2010. It worked fine, could read and write to it no trouble. Then I switched to Suse 11.3 and it says I do not have permissions any more to do anything but read. I have logged on as superuser (root) and tried everything. It will not change file or even drive permissions...

I'm trying to change the permissions of my external USB drive that i've plugged into my machine. It still reads user root and group root. I've tried chown -R kuier /home/kuiper/file Then chgrp -R users /home/kuiper/file But it still doesn't change permissions. I've also tried editing /etc/group and adding my name to plugdev group. nothing seems to be working?

Whenever I plug an external harddrive to a CentOS system,all partitions mounted will have noexec that makes my binaries or script files not executable.
Quote:
[root@centos52-64-dell ~]# mount
/dev/sda3 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
[code]....
I have to remount it using, e.g.,
mount -o remount,exec /dev/sdb1
But I am sick and tired of doing it everyday. What I can I do ?I don't want to use /etc/fstab to solve this problem becauseit will cause booting problem (curable though) when the hard drive is not around.

i needed to change my external hard drive's file system from ext3 to fat32, to use it in windows, which i did the simple way: i shrunk the ext3 partition, made a fat32 partition, copied the files over, removed the ext3 and made the fat32 bigger. unfortunately, while gparted was making the partition larger, my computer shut down. i lost all my files and the partition messed up immediately. i made a new fat32 partition, after deleting the old one, but noticed that gparted was showing 100 gigs already in use (???). so now i have a 300 gb hard drive with only 200 gb i can use; i ran df to make sure gparted wasn't messing up, but indeed it shows the partition as being only 200 gigs in size. i haven't tried making any other kind of partition yet, such as ext3, for fear of losing my files again, and because it wouldn't be permanent anyway, because i need those files in windows and stupid microsoft won't make their OS ext3 compatible.

I was trying to change the mounting point of a usb external drive from '/media/disk' to '/media/Movies'
Here is were the stupid part takes over... I right clicked on the desktop icon for the device and selected Properties. From there I selected the Volume tab and in there I changed the mounting point to '/media/Movies' It accepted it and said the changed would take place when I unmounted it and remounted it. However, when I did this it now says it cannot be mounted as it says mount_point contains invalid characters usually /
Unfortunately, now I cannot get back into the properties to remove my error.

I work at a local computer shop as a computer technician and we get many computer in daily that require external virus scans (having to take out the hard drives, sticking it in another machine) just to scan (if we're lucky we can sometimes just do it in safe mode).Now what I want to know is...
1. Is it possible to install Ubuntu to an external HDD and use it virtually anywhere I plug it in? Will it pick up the network card, graphics card, etc so I can just plug and go? (Of course there are drivers for some computers).
2. Is it possible to run a Windows oriented virus scanner on Ubuntu? I know I can use WINE to run Windows applications, but will it prove to be compliant with virus scanners as well?
3. The main reason why I want it to be able to pick up on hardware and just work is because I plan on using it for schooling / travelling as well, have all my documents etc saved on it for easy access.
I've used Ubuntu in the past on an old laptop that didn't have much memory, small HDD, and a crap processor but that was 5-6 years ago (I still have the disk they sent me for free ).

I installed Ubuntu on external USB hard drive and while booting I did got option to log into windows XP, Ubuntu. Both operating systems ran fine. i.e. GRUB had overwritten MBR and I was able to dual boot. Main issue: I have installed Ubuntu in external hard-drive so that I can use Linux whenever I want other people who are using same computer can operate on WindowsXP. Sometimes my external hard drive gives problem if there is loose connection and so that oper people using computer do not face any problem I want to disconnect external USB HD whenever I am not using Linux. GRUB menu was pointing to external hardrive so disconnecting it meant my system wont boot!!I rewrote MBR using WindowsXP CD recovery mode. Now I am unable to boot from external USB hard disk( I thought I would be able to if I choose USB hard drive in BIOS option but it did not work it logged into WindowsXP by default).Is there any way I can change WindowsXP boot.ini file so that it also shows Ubuntu in external hard disk? Or is there any way.(I do not want GRUB way as then I would have to keep my external drive connected to log into windows - which I do not want).

I plugged in my external dvd-r (asus) via usb. It showed me some message on shell, that it has detected the cdrom(although its dvd rom as well but nevermind) and its of ASUS. But how do i know which dev it was associated with in /dev/? Since i had to test something, i plugged it out, and save the output of ls /dev/ > ~/result.txt
after plugging the dvd-rom, i compared the results and was able to find that it was associated with simple cdrom i.e. /dev/cdrom. I wanted to know that is there any command that will tell me which /dev/ file was associated with external dvdrom? i tried to see in the following result
1) df -h ( no results, just the already mounted partitions)
2) fdisk -l ( same as above)
3) dmesg | tail (shown almost the same result as was shown on shell at the time of plugging the dvd)

I have two machines running Ubuntu 9.1, both with Firefox 3.5 fitted, working well, apart from an error on one machine.When trying to download a Torrent I get the error "Firefox can't establish a connection at the server at localhost: 12322".The other machine is fine without this error.I have searched the Firefox files and this forum, plus a variety of sources but cannot find an answer, apart from "use the other machine".

Everytime I turn on the computer, the hostname is getting changed back to localhost.
Code:
cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1najilelocalhost
# The Following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
[Code]....
(side note: man hosts says that the name is based off the hostname file, but that's clearly not the case here. It's being named off the /etc/hosts file. Why did we move away from /etc/hostname? It's SOO much easier)
These computers (It's more then one) were all installed with the minimal Ubuntu disk and then installed basic software such as xorg, nautilus, gdm, and openoffice.

I tend to forget stuff if I don't work with it for awhile. somehow I struggled through and figured out (with a lot of help) how to set up Ubuntu Intrepid server edition on my computer, and am serving my website from my computer. For times when the free DNS nameserver is 'closed' (often lol) I use localhost and can see/work on my site. Suddenly, when I type localhost into the address bar, I get a blank page, nothing! I'm not sure what to do....can someone please help because am going to use my website to present a class project, and was going to use localhost (bring my computer) in case the nameserver was down, I have to be able to display it.

My local server isn't displaying images or proper css for my web pages. The pages display just fine on the webserver, but locally no images show, most of the css declarations aren't there and some of the php includes won't show on the page either. It's as if it's 10% working. All the files are in the right place. I changed directory permissions and tried restarting apache but that didn't help.

if I should ask this in the server section. But since I use the desktop version of Ubuntu I will ask here. Basically my server is going on pension. Hardware is outdated and all that. Since it's main job was serving me with MySql databases with web interfaces I sommer want to shift all of that over to my desktop and run my databases on the desktop. It's only me that access it so don't see why I can't run it localhost.
My question is. The three main things I need, apache, Mysql and php, are they in the repositories in Synaptec ? If not how hard will the install and config of those three apps be on Ubuntu Desktop? (I've always used Fedora as server with everything build-in so have no experience of installing mysql, apache and php from scratch)
