Ubuntu Networking :: Machine Id Is Different From Registered
Feb 23, 2010
My ISP doesnt provide a client for linux However theres a login form on the browser which they provide which helps connecting my account and logging in into it.Thus starting the internet. Now the problem is of machine id. Whenever I try logging in through Ubuntu it says "your machine ID is diff from the one registered with us"
This problem doesnt come with my WinXP. Are the machine IDs diff for Ubuntu and winXP? How can I make them same?to edit the ubuntus to make it same as winxp? I cant you internet on Ubuntu because of this!
I try to access my ubuntu machine via my Windows Machine (Samba Server on Ubuntu Machine). Anytime I try to access the machine it asks me for my password...I enter it but it says it is invalid....is there anyway to reset it? I have already tried to remove and purge everything Samba related and then tried reinstalling, but that still didn't do anything
I have an ubuntu kk laptop connected via wireless to my mixed network (xp, win7, other ubuntu), but i can not ping said machine or connect via ssh. Internet and smb-browsing ON this machine work, as does pinging FROM it. If this was a windows machine, I'd say a firewall is in the way, but since it's a vanilla karmic install, this should not be the case (or should it?).
It seems whenever i create a folder it creates the folder as untitled folder, but i can't change the folder name it just says "you don't have permission to rename item" but yet i created the folder and it is there. One thing i have noticed is that once i enter a folder it won't even let me move the folder.
I have ubuntu-8.04.1-server installed on virtual machine. It works perfect. Now, I made copy of this virtual machine. I started that copied machine and it works fine, except one thing: network does not work! I have several others VMs with freeBSD, openBSD or Windows on it, but only ubuntu machine hes network problem after coping. I tried some other VM with ubuntu on it - same problem! I downloaded VM with ubuntu - same problem.I take a look into /etc/network/interfaces file and it looks just as it should (same as before coping) but ifconfig command returns parameters for lo only (before coping there was eth0 and lo).
I am trying to establish the easiest way to share a folder from an Ubuntu machine to a Windows machine.In the past I have added things to smb.conf and that has all worked fine but what I am trying to do is to figure out what the "new user" way of doing this is so that when I am helping other people I know I am getting them to do the simplest thing.I completely removed samba and reinstalled it so that I didn't have any configuration. Right clicked on a folder and selected "Sharing Options" ticked the "Share this folder box" gave it a name and a comment and ticked the other two boxes.
When I went to the windows laptop then it kept asking for a username/password and nothing worked.Back on the ubuntu machine I did sudo smbpasswd -a [username] and created a blank password. Now from the windows machine I can access the shared folder.Is the smbpasswd step still required? It's very confusing for a new user as there is no suggestion that anything other than right clicking on the folder and choosing the options you want would be required. Is it something to do with the fact that this is an ubuntu machine that has gradually been upgraded through versions and this problem wouldn't have been there from a new install?
I can successfully logon to machine A to Machine B.
what address and port will my tunnel 'appear' on machine B? I want to send a stream back from B to A up the encrypted tunnel, not over the open network.
I have an issue with the manner in which Network Manager is configuring the network and short of ditching Network Manager I can see no solution.The issue : Getting a machine to update its machine name in the DNS serverSounds simple doesn't it I operate a FreeBSD based firewall / DHCP / DNS server, using a default Network Manager DHCP configuration the Fedora clients do not register their names with the DNS server when they obtain an address.
I have traced the communications with Wireshark and the Fedora clients are NOT supplying the PC's hostname as part of the exchange so this is NOT a DNS server configuration issue. If I uncheck the option 'Automatically obtain DNS information from provider' under the DHCP settings the Fedora clients DO register the hostname that is put into the Hostname (optional) databox. They do NOT however store the DNS server IP address or any other records defined by the DNS server.
Is there some hidden settings or is this a bug because it isn't acceptable 'DHCP' behaviour if it isn't possible to automatically set DNS server IP addresses and at the same time register the hostname during the DHCP negotiation. Before it is said I know I can use a fixed DNS IP address but am not prepared to long term, I am also not prepared to define the Fedora clients with a 'static' IP. I am similarly not interested in playing around with scripts or any other such 'frigs' to achieve what should be a standard activity - registering a host with DNS during the DHCP negotiation.
I need to access a Windows Server 2000 machine using a Linux machine via KDE, but that will migrate to Gnome. The Linux user to connect to Windows machine, you should open an application 'XYZ' automatically, and only this, denying any unauthorized access. When you close the application 'XYZ' communications (RDP?) Should be terminated. Do I need a log of accesses and possible attempts to circumvent the system and access other application.
I had run one script in unix machine and want to copy the results to a windows machineBoth the machines are on different networksIn linux machine trying to do the ftp to the windows machine its giving connection refused. How to chech whether ftp is running on that linux machine or not?Also tried scp and ssh , both are failing
I have a ubuntu 9.04 machine i'm using as a file server. I'm able to see that machine from any XP machine, connect to it's shares play music, movies, work off of it NO problems. But i can't view the shares from a windows 7 home edition PC (garbage). AND, from the ubuntu PC, i can't see any of the other shares on network. I get "Fail to receive share list from server".
NOTE: Originally i had this machine connected with wireless card because of location. and I was able to see all shares then - both ways (still not from Windows 7 PCs though). However, when I moved to hard wire connection, the network disappeared. I've tried changing IP addresses, changing switches, but no network. I'd like to keep it hard wire. Can anyone point me in right direction or am i missing information?
I have two machines, one has XP service pack2, second one has CentOS 5.3 (Linux), they are connected through crossover cable. I have configured everything fine but don't know why till now can't ping!
A. Windows machine settings as follows:
IP Address: 192.168.1.3 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gatway: 192.168.1.1 + Firewall is turned OFF.
B. For Linux machine, I will list everything stored in network files, logged as [root@localhost ~]# :
I mean I assigned the IP: 192.168.1.4 to Linux machine (Eth0). I did everything above and can't ping till now, when pinging from windows or Linux I get a message "destination host unreachable" restarted Linux many times but same result. NETWORK CABLE is working fine I tested it.
I've run into a weird problem. Two of my linux machines (A and B, both running CentOS 5.5) are connected to the same wall ethernet socket via a hub. Bothf them are configured for static IPs. The trouble is that when machine B goes offline or hits a kernel panic, machine 1 goes offline too. What I've noticed is that in this condition the "route" output from machine A does not show any entry for the default gateway either The contents of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 for machine A are:
I was wondering if it would work as regular ram or would it just not work at all.For a MSI PM8M-V 7104 motherboard [URL]I got this PC as a street throwaway. PS was dead.
I am a new user trying Ubuntu 10.Got it up and running.Can connect to the internet.Can send and receive E Mail.Can see my Win XP machine that is also on my home netwook.Can transfer files from my Win XP machine to my Ubuntu Machine but just cannot work out how to get my WIn XP machine to see my Ubuntu machine.
I ordered my VPS but my domain name that I registered my VPS with is with another host. So obviously I have to update the nameserver options there. How can i find out what my nameserver settings on my vps? I'm using webmin.
I remember having the same problem with kde/Fedora a few years back, and I can't remember the solution. Trying to open any attachment in evolution gives the error "No application is registered as handling this file" and you have to save the attachment, and then open it as normal. I have checked all the file associations, and they are fine, and the same attachment in evolution under Gnome opens fine.
I am trying to install Wireshark after I "untar"-ed it.This is the first time I am running RH on one of my PERSONAL PC's at home. Do I need to Register my Red Hat OS for "yum" to work? I got this RH cd from work.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and I'm trying to VNC into my Ubuntu box from my MBP. I can connect just fine, however, I am unable to register any mouse clicks or keyboard input on the resulting desktop. I'm launching it as follows: x11vnc -nomodtweak -scale 9/10 I can log in using my Windows box and UltraVNC and use input with no problem.
Anybody else get this message after a recent upgrade to testing (at least)?

There are RPC services which were registered with the portmapper before the configuration was changed. You need to manually restart them in order for the changes to take effect. Current registered services:
I already setup my samba, openLDAP as well as smb-tools but when I try to registered my winXP client into Linux Domain,there was an error "a device attached to the system is not functioning" but browsing of user folder is possible, by typing in run command \server1 then provide a username and password.I can also transfer some documents on that folder, only registering from linux domain is my problem...

I have a squeeze net install cd I downloaded and have used to install on two computers. Now I try to install on a third computer, install seems to go well, but when I try to run it, I get the message about 'driver' pcspkr already registered. Then CRASH. So, I wiped the HD and tried again; same result.
I figured the cd might have been corrupted so downloaded and burned another. This time I downloaded from a different mirror. Same result. I don't know what this pcspkr is all about; I don't even own any pc speakers. The computer on which this happens runs Lenny on another HD.
Im currently using kernel version 2.6.33.3 and i have recompiled. I have bought a serialboard(PCIe 7800) from addi-data and im not sure whether it is properly installed.
When i type in "cat/proctty/drivers", the listing contain a line:
When i type in "lspci",
From my card distrubutor, 7013 means it is APCIe-7800. meaning my system identified the board correctly. why is there an "Unknown" word in the line?
When i type "dmesg", it only shows i have 4 ports,
And i dun have the identification of the PCI slot in which the board is plugged from these "dmesg" command which are usually type MMIO.
