Is there some kind of Ubuntu desktop application that notifies you when your WAN ip address has changed? I don't care about my LAN ip address. I need some kind of popup on the desktop when my ISP assigns the next dynamic WAN ip address.
View 1 Repliesdoes anyone know a way to disable those annoying NM 0.7.1 popup balloons in F11 (KDE)? The ones that say that it is now connected to the wired eth0 network for example? I would really like to get rid of those ugly GTK notifications in KDE, but the NM GUI doesn't seem to have an option for this?!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running my own Postfix mail server. Some time ago I noticed that most email was rejected because of the server's dynamic IP address. So I got a fixed IP address. However then I noticed that some mails got rejected due to failing the reverse DNS check. So my ISP told me to get a range of IP addresses and they could then create a PTR record for one of those addresses. That is now running but it turns out that the IP address used for the PTR record is a ... dynamic IP address. So Spamhaus PBL rejects my emails again.

The main problem is that, after updates, I have been getting popups and notifications that look like the attached... Which is problematic if you want to use popup/notifications such as those popped up.... These include Pidgin notifications, Sound Notifications, and whenever I attempt to open System Monitor, as can be seen from the snapshots.
We have Verizon as our ISP with a dynamic IP address. We published our website but the IP changes frequently. How can we set Network address translator(NAT) so our website can be published regardless of IP changes? We don't have domain name and have no intention for one.

Transmission offers to run a script when a download is complete.
I'd like that script to create a popup message saying "Download Complete" (including the name of what was completed if possible otherwise just generic "DL complete")
I tried 'man notify-osd' and 'notify-osd --help' but it is not found.
Yet it is installed by default.
The message must stay up until clicked on so that if something finishes overnight, the msg is still there in the morning.
I need to obtain daily dynamic IP address from my router for remote user. In order to get into the router page, I need to login to it with ID and password.
Can I tell the server to do this every time it started up to login to router and extract the ip address and send out via email?
The router can only access through web interface and below is what I copied from browser.
I'd like to implement a dynamic menu which will allow me to specify an IP address and read it into memory. This is what I've got so far (it's fairly basic...)
Code:
IPS=`ifconfig -a | grep 'inet addr:' | awk '{print $2}' | tr -d "addr:"`
PS3='Select an option and press Enter: '
select i in $IPS
do
case $i in
$i) echo $IPS;;
esac
done
echo $IPS
At the moment it just says "Which IP would you like to use" and then freezes, most success I've had is it showing all the IP's listed in ifconfig and then showing the same menu.
I have 4 servers that I got at auction and they now have ubuntu running with gnome interface.I installed apache2 and tried to edit the conf file but i am not sure if it is a router issue a dns or the config.I am trying to figure out how to set the server to hold the domain from a dynamic ip address and also how to create some test page to see if i can acess from the internet.
I have purchased some books on the command lines and how ubuntu works, I am understanding it so far, but dont know how to have a directory for the dns request to point to for the sitewhat i want to do with the servers...voipeb server for about 4 websites - one is for a volunteer rescue organization, another for a test auction site and 2 portfolio sitesremote file access- if possiblealso on a side note, is it possible to have a message relay from one cell phone or transmit to the server and have it send sms message to cell phones? - this will be used for the rescue group as well.
When you hover your cursor over in icon often you get some info about it.
Now I have the problem that this info is unreadable in all the KDE apps I use and in Skype. (see the sceenshot I attached to see what I mean)
I uses Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome the radiance theme.
When switch to another theme and then immediately switch back to radiance the colours are good but after a reboot I get back the unreadable colours.
What can I do to solve this problem?
Not sure if this is a bug or not, but the popup menu is now gone. using KDE 4.4.4 opensuse 11.3. Anyone with an idea of what go hosed, or needs to be unset? where in the .kde directory is the file that needs to be changed?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am a certified newbie into linux. I am using now ubuntu 9.04. Now here is my question.

I've installed and configured lampp and joomla. I am trying to learn how to use the joomla under ubuntu using only my computer as my local host. But when I restart my computer, the IP Address that is assigned is different to what I used when I installed joomla so I cant access my website even if I am using the same computer when I installed it. Is it possible to assign a fixed IP Address to my computer under ubuntu.
this seems silly but I am changing ISPs and need to change my notification email address (for here). Under User Menu -> Edit account it shows my email but does not allow me to change my email. Since I am able to post I assume I am logged in correctly. So what did I miss?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to configure a VPN over the Internet.I installed the 'openvpn' package, generated the key file, transfered it by a secure way to the client, and setted up the configuration file.
So, in that configuration file I input the IP addresses of the tunneled interfaces. Both IPs are static in the tunnel.
Then, I've heard somewhere that I can assign a dynamic configuration IP for the client. I do this registering a range.
Well, when I tried to change static IP to dynamic IP (changing '192.168.0.2' to '192.168.0.0/24') in the configuration file, the OpenVPN didn't work.
Obviously I don't know what I'm doing, and I really, don't believe that simply changing the IP will make it work, but I tried.
I hope I explained my problem as well.
My configuration file:
# OpenVPN Server Configuration File
dev tun 0
ifconfig 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2
cd /etc/openvpn
secret key_file
In client I execute the 'openvpn' without the '--daemon' parameter.Then I want that my client uses a IP in a range (192.168.0.0/24, for example), instead of a static IP (192.168.0.2).I also thought to use a DHCP server, but I'm not sure that will work.
Running Ubuntu 9.10. In the Remote Desktop config dialog I get: "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 127.0.0.1 or tabatha.local." I understand this means only the loopback ip address is available. All my other machines show their true local ip address (e.g., 192.168.1.104) in this dialog. Thus I cannot log on to this desktop from other machines.
When I try to do a remote logon from another Ubuntu 9.10 box (or from an XP box using a VNC viewer), I get: "Connection to 192.168.1.102 has been closed." What steps are needed to make this machine show its actual ip address? All file sharing between the various machines is working properly and all windows shares back and forth between XP and 'nix, and among the the vaious XP boxes and linux boxes are available as designed.

I have a strange issue w/ F11 and atheros 5212 wifi card using the standard ath5k driver. Every now and then (usually upon bootup but it will kick in every now and then, no rhyme or reason) I will get a kernel panic whereupon my wifi disconnects and I have to manually reconnect. The password screen will popup and I just hit OK and it reconnects. there also appears to be a dmesg line 'disassociated by local choice (reason=3)' in addition to the kernel panic. I've tried using ath9k instead (rmmod ath5k, modprobe ath9k) but that doesn't work at all, no wifi shows up in networkmanager. I also tried to find madwifi and kmod-madwifi via yum but those packages do not appear to be there for F11.

Version 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
My files are as follows:
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I'm having problems trying to assign it a static IP address.

I'm using to using ubuntu server where I just set the IP in the interfaces config file.
