I didn't know whether or not to put this in the "General Help" category or "Server Platforms" So I put it in the General Help. But, to get to my question, I would like to make an SFTP Server that's connected to a domain name. I would like to be able to go to a website and access files on my server from anywhere but I don't know where to start.
I have 2 servers each one with a RAID and I want them mirror they data so if one of them goes down the other one take the job with out disruption. I've heard of multipath by I want to know it in detail or learn of more options.
I am trying to make an application server that would contain simple ones like edit, openoffice, gimp, so on and so forth. I know how to access these using ssh but what I want is that the application runs on that server as it already does, but to open local files and save them locally.
I want to make a transparent squid proxy server in centos. The squid proxy version is 2.6 stable. I made a normal squid server but want to make it transparent so that users do not need to enter the proxy settings in web browser. Even i searched about this on google but not getting it properly.I have two lan cards on centos system. ETH1 used for LAN and ETH2 used for WAN. And in this squid.conf i written "http_port 172.16.31.1:3128 transparent" and i also added a rule in iptables which is "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128" but still i have to enter proxy settings at client's web browser to use internet

I wanted to know how can I cross compile SMS SERVER TOOL for an embedded computer and make just one binary file for it or how can I change all of its default files places like its demon and object file and gather all of them to one directory to execute and use and run.let me explain it better for you : I have an embedded computer with Linux OS that its file system is read only and I can not add any file to /usr /lib and ..... and I can just mount a SD memory card to it and copy all of my programs to it and run them from there as you understand I have two choices to choose, first make one big binary file for each program that I am doing it now and it is not a suitable solution and the second is finding the way to change default place of shared object file of my program.now you tell me what can I do to solving this problem.
it is possible to make a connection to a server with FTP Server from my vserver? like the IP shown ond the FTP server is the ip from my vserver? Is this like a Socks5? is it possible? and if i download something from this FTP-Server to my home (the vserver is "between"), how big is the Traffic? is all the Traffic, wich i download, throught my v-server? (because i just have a few GB per month to download)
I've been tried to be system admin, programmer, network admin, or network engineer. So, I've been studying this and that... what so ever struggling to find my talent. Back in 2007-2008, I was MS server admin/comm tech. I saw a building running MS server for user computers and Red Hat 9 as a main system server. MS sever was a just one of the user accounts of Linux server. When I log in to Linux, I could see log menu to access MS server. How could somebody make this creative thing?I'm now a Network engineer because working with CISCO router and switch is easier than working as programmer or server admin. I've studied Oracle 10 and VMWARE also but there are ceasless stuffs that I need to study... For now, in regards of my limited brain power, network engineer is proper for me.
In a newly installed Linux machine which is a client machine, is not listening to NIS domain server even after setting IP address ,default gateway,and subnet mask.What are all the changes to be done in configuration file.And how can be solved
I setting up a web server on my Linux (Centos) using "Apache" web server. And its working well, it will show my websites. But when i try to put my url in a internet browser (ie. only type "myweb.com" ) is only be [URL]. Usually as i know like the other websites (ie. google.com) it will go to auto replace the name be [URL]. But my url here it's not be replacing like that. How to do this configuration. I don't know where the services that i need to look. (ie; named (bind) or in Apache web server it self)?
I'm having trouble with my database server run with PHP & MYSQL; i just installed this system on a SUSE Linux Enterprise Sever; the Server its self is an HP Proliant ML370G with 4GB RAM The system was fine for like 3 weeks until recently when it started slowing down. Apparently, eveything is normal when you are accessing the server, for example when you are browsing on the database web interface; but problem is when you start working in the database, when you try submitting into the database, its really slow on processing, i have to first restart the mysql; Could it be RAM? or the SQL itself?
How do I make a local mail server that itself is a client to a WAN mail server.I want the local mail server to query new mail every 30 minutes from the WAN server.
Linux printing appeared to be working fine up until yesterday. Today typing lpq gives the following: lpq Printer 'sdst@other.domain' - cannot open connection - Connection timed out Make sure LPD server is running on the server
The /etc/cups/printers.conf file is properly set, the printers appear in localhost:631 and they are printing test pages. However, all command line print commands seem to be trying to print to sdst@other.domain I don't know why printers.conf is being ignored and why and how sdst@other.domain was added. Seems like it might have been auto-discovered?
# dit: sdst@other.domain was mentioned in /usr/local/etc/lpd.conf I'm not sure why lpd.conf is being used instead of /etc/cups/printers.conf
I started to collect the bits for putting together a file server, originally i was going to go for a windows OS since i was familiar but the i thought i may as well play around a bit with ubuntu server.So i grabbed the 9.10 server ISO, install it onto my 4GB CF card i have plugged into the IDE port via a converter.Seems to install fine and i got samba up and running and so far thats about all.I want to get some kind of DC++ client working on it as well, im not sure if i need some kind of GUI for it...
I have the desktop packages installed as well but the system is configured to go to the console on boot.I would like to make it run a script once the user has logged in...
I recently decided I wanted a web server so I installed Ubuntu and apache2 on it and it works fine. I installed forums on the site as well and it's working fine to. Problem I don't know exactly what to do with the site so I haven't purchased a domain yet (so to access the site you just type in the ip address).
I know this sounds really weird but I want to know if I can make a mail server without a domain name. I kinda want to use it for e-mail verification for the forum. I have been following this tutorial: [URL] and it seems i need a domain name. Is it possible? Also I am not using Ubuntu server, would setting up a mail server be much easier on there (or rather, does it come with a mail server?)
I'm hosting my own dedicated server with Ubuntu Server 10.10. I have it set up with a static local IP, and I've configured DynDNS to link up with my router and allow my server to go live to the internet. I have all the appropriate ports unlocked, with the exception of port 80. This port is blocked by my ISP (Charter) and I can't use it. Due to this, I configured my router to listen on port 81, and direct it to my server.
So, In order to view it, you need to go to the IP XXX.xxx.XXX.xxx:81 Today, I registered (www.online-self.com) in hopes of getting around my current mask (provided by DynDNS.com (omegame.selfip.com). So here is my dilemma, When I go to the host of my domain name , I want to redirect my DNS to my server IP.
I can't seem to do it though? They want a strict IP address, no port extensions. How do I get around this so that my domain name and IP address link up? I'm thinking I may be missing a step, or maybe I needed to register a domain name that simply redirects? I'm starting to get confused on what I should do next. Can I even do this?
For the last couple of days I've been building on a server built from an old (well, not too old) computer. My goal is to use it for multiple purposes like a webserver, home automation, and possibly a future media center (if I get my TV card to work). But perhaps the main reason is to get wireless access to the internet for my laptop, and to connect it to my other (stationary) computer. When I'm done I'm also planning on writing a guide for setting up an access point with the rt61 chipset, as there seems to be many people looking for this. First I just need to get through this problem though .
For this I use two wired NICs, eth0 for the local interface to my computer, and eth1 as an external interface for the internet. Moreover I use a wireless NIC (DWL-G510 using the rt61pci driver) in conjunction with the daemon hostapd to provide a wireless interface for portable computers to connect to. eth1 gets its IP through DHCP from my ISP, while eth0 and wlan0 have static IPs on two different subnets like this (copied from /etc/network/interfaces):
I am thinking of making a website, but I decided, "hey, can't I just make and host the website myself without spending any money??" I am just wondering, is this possible? Is there an easy way to have your own website and get it online for free by hosting it on your own computer dedicated to it? It would save me money.
i want to know how to make my old computer into a linux server that i can keep at home, and when i go to college i can take my new computer.so right now i have a core 2 duo with 4 gig ram, 640 gig hd, 600 w psu, a 9800gtx, and its in a cooler master case.so how can i make it so its running a linux server all the time and could host things for me.i also want to set up vnc through ssh (i think thats what its called)
I have a Synology home server at home. I have a laptop with Linux Mint 8 (Helena) installed. I can access my server's shared files using LAN through Places>Network>Windows Network>Workgroup>Server>Shared files. I can also access the files through a web browser. Samba is installed. The problem is when I use the wireless lan of my laptop, I cannot access the server and the files anymore locally even through a web browser.
I tried Connect to Server through Windows Share but what I get is "Could not display "smb://server/".".
(I have tried a bunch of other ips too and none outside its network are pingable) I'm not sure if this is a problem with my server or a problem with the networking outside the server. I have been emailing my server provider and they keep on insisting the problem is with the server and that their network is working fine. Apparently all of their other servers work and they can login into the gateway and ping 8.8.8.8 from there. So they just want to reinstall the OS, but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has any ideas.
Here is some info I have gained while troubleshooting: I haven't changed any settings at all on the server for months. I haven't done any updates for about a week. The strangest thing is that this is intermittent, there have been a few times in the last 24 hours where I have been able to ping 8.8.8.8 or other ips, but 98% of the time I can't. I have also tried rebooting the server, which had no effect. I can ping the gateway, and I can ping other servers on the same subnet. I can ssh onto the server from my home internet connection, and I can view webpages on apache, so incoming connections work.
