I found one strange issue with ubuntu, can anyone suggest if its a bug or as designed? If I have two nameservers in my resolv.conf, ubuntu only checks the first (and receives a not found reply from there) and never goes to the next two nameservers. This behaviour is very different from windows or other linux systems.
View 3 RepliesI have an application running inside our lan on server 192.168.0.1:8080. I have configured gateway firewall to direct all traffic on port 80 to port 8080 on 192.168.0.1. So I can access the application from outside lan. Now the problem starts when the application redirects the traffic to another server 192.168.0.2 according to the input of the users. How can I configure the whole system so that I can access the application running on second servers also?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a wide area network with 7 CentOS servers running Bind and 1 Windows 2003 server. All 8 of these servers handle DHCP and DNS at their respective locations. At each site I can ping computer.site.company I'd like to be able to resolve the dns names from site to site. So from site1 I would like to be able to ping computer.site2.company and get a response.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn my environment we are running DHCP on a Windows 2003 r2 server. This DHCP server also is used with Symantec's 3COM PXE for the desktops. So the desktop's can PXE boot into Symantec Ghost and re-image the PC's with a Ghost (GHO) file. This DHCP server is responsible for assigning IP addresses for all desktops on the network.
We also have several branch offices which this DHCP server provides IP addresses to. These branch offices are on a separate network so I believe this is possible. Each branch office is running a Linux server so I would like to use Clonezilla and allow users in these offices to PXE boot to the local Linux server to run Clonezilla and re-image their notebook/desktops with a specified image that is on the local Linux server in each office. My only concern is the use of the same DHCP server. Is this possible?
Another project I am working on is setting up LTSP with openSUSE in which I want to have about 10 or 15 diskless PCs boot up and retrieve the LTSP image but this would also use the same DHCP server and is on the same network as the regular desktops that use the Symantec 3COM PXE service so is this even possible? If not, any recommendation on how I could get it to work? Could proxyDHCP work or MAC filtering or even a seperate VLAN?
i am working at a place that has 2 physical web servers yadayada1 and yadayada2 but only one public ip address i can use dyndns to register 2 dynamic domains on the same ip address
how can i get yadayadayada1.dyndns.org to route to yadayada1 and yadayadayada2.dyndns.org to route to yadayada2 ?
I have 5 linux ssh servers at my office that are behind a router. How do I connect to any one specific server from outside the LAN? Do I have to port forward the router giving each machine it's own port? That seems clunky.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking at using reverse SSH tunnels to manage servers on client sites. I have played around with reverse tunnelling, and have it working on one server back to my middle man server from which I can SSH across from my own PC. All working fine. When I scale this up to 100+ servers reverse tunnelling in, usernames & passwords become a pain, so I'd prefer to use RSA keys instead. My question, finally you might say, is this, to successfully ssh from my PC to the remote server, do the RSA keys need to be on the middle man server as well, or is it just my PC and the remote server?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I have a pretty big networking nightmare on my hands right now. Stepped into the dog crap with this one, told my employer that I knew how to setup vmware servers right? Its not hard, install CentOS, install vmware, run the config tool, bridge the network, down the road we all go right? We have 3 servers running about 10 virtual servers.
Here is what we have all together.
CFU <- This is the internet. We have IP ranges xx.18.230 - xx.18.241 Gateway is xx.18.254 and subnet is xx.255.128
DELL PowerConnect 3348 Switch <- This is what everything is pretty much jammed into.
VMH1 <- This machine has 2 NICs
eth0 connects to the DELL switch somewhere on the upper 30+ ports
eth1 connects to the DELL switch on port 1.
It uses firestarter and is the gateway for our internal internet on 192.168.11.XX using IP 11.254. It has 4 vm's on it. One of them is the domain controller, hooked to eth1 using IP xx.11.1. The other one is a server for managing remote backups, it has an external IP linked to eth0 of xx.18.234. The other 2 vm's are for misc remote login stations that use internal ip addresses linked to eth1. It hasn't had a single problem communicating on either one of the ports..
VMH2 <- This server hosts a web server, and some other misc stations.
It hosts a web server on xx.18.230 and xx.18.231
It also hosts 2 workstations on a seperate network, through another router that is wireless....
Now, we have the problem child, VMH3
VMH3 <- This hosts...nothing. It sits and has a ton of storage, but does absolutely nothing, but won't communicate out either one of its network ports.
The xx.36.xx and xx.22.xx networks are there because we have multiple businesses in the building that shouldn't see each other.
what is the best way here? I have like 5 servers, and I want my clients to access each of them, so in case 1 server is down, they can access remaining servers. Also, it will work like user1 chooses the server number and is connecting to a central database, then reply is OK, and he can connect to the server number he wished.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a CentOS5 server with dual ethernet adapters + Webmin installed as my Router / Firewall / DHCP server working successfully with 1 static IP from my ISP.

Looking for a test tool where I can fire up any number of ports (TCP and / or UDP) to listen on.
I am currently getting my using nc but its only 1 port at a time (i know I can open up multiple sessions but thats cumbersome), it can't do UDP, and it closes at the end of the session.
A friend has suggested socat but it looks pretty much the same except it can do UDP, but also cumbersome, I have to manually output to a different file per port, etc.
Basically its so I can quickly test firewall and NAT rules.

It seems, if more than one cable is connected, a random hardware port is chosen as eth0-eth2. If only one cable is connected the port that is connected is chosen as eth0-eth2. Any idea what's going wrong here?
Faced with disk-bound issues on a FTP server with high traffic. Would like to set up multiple FTP server nodes with dedicated storage for each node where all FTP access is managed by a master FTP server. So, a user would FTP to a single externally visible IP address for the master FTP server and then get routed to the appropriate FTP node. Are the mutiple FTP nodes required or is there a better way of doing this? Perhaps only one FTP server is required and then each node would serve as a separate file server
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking at setting up a couple automated systems: Here are a few examples:
* Internal accounting system to download and process emails
* Public web server to visit
I could put each system on its own separate box -- for example, it's generally good practice to separate anything that external users have access to (such as a webserver) from internal processes such as accounting. Now, rather than dishing out the money for two separate servers, could I get away with just installing new instances of VMWare on the same box for each system?
To give you an idea, these are not large scale computationally sensitive systems. The accounting one is simply downloading and tallying emails, and the latter is just a webserver with maybe 5 hits per day on a good day. I could definitely pick up a new box for say $50, but I wanted to know the general practice of using VMWare on the same box versus two separate boxes.
I'm curious if anybody can shed some light for me in this department. We're in a large environment with a Windows DHCP Server. We have been tinkering with LTSP on Edubuntu as thin and fat clients. It works great, but right now we just have 1 server handling the lab, which works fine unless we want to expand, which may be very possible.
These are the instructions I received:
Login to your windows server and load the DHCP configuration screen
Create a DHCP reservation for the MAC address you obtained
Add the configuration options below to enable the machine to boot from the LTSP server
017 Root Path: /opt/ltsp/i386
066 Boot Server Host Name: <ip address>
067 Bootfile Name: ltsp/arch/pxelinux.0 # Specify CPU architecture in place of 'arch', for instance 'i386'

I'm curious, what if I want to have multiple Ubuntu servers on the network that I want to have bootable? For example, let's say I have 3 labs, and 3 servers. Server A to Lab A, Server B to Lab B, and Server C to Lab C. I want all C's computers to boot to C, and B to B, A to A, etc.
1 - How would I add multiple entries on the Windows DHCP Server to allow all 3 (A B C) servers to boot?
2 - How would I be able to isolate the clients so ONLY Lab A clients boot to Server A, etc?
I always use Shorewall on my Ubuntu Servers and it works great, one things I have never been able to get right is the TOS.Let say for example I would like:
HTTP traffic (80, but all traffic get routed to 3128 [Squid]) to get highest priority
SMTP (25) second highest
POP (110) third highest
The rest forth
How would I get that right?
I currently have a group of 3 servers connected to a local network. One is a web server, one is a mysql server, the other used for a specific function on my site (calculation of soccer matches!).
Anyway, I have been working on the site a lot lately but it is tedious connecting my USB hard drive to each computer and copying the files. This means I am not backing up as often as I should...
I have a laptop connected to this same network that I use for development so I can SSH into to the computers, is there any software for ubuntu that can take backups of files that I choose on multiple computers? I know I could rsync but is there something with more or an GUI?
Then I can just every 2 days move the most recent backup from my laptop to the USB drive. Then I will have the backup stored in 2 places if things go kaboom somewhere.
I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.04 and have a secure (SSL/TLS) FTP server on it. However, I'd like to use this FTP server to update programs I made using Microsoft Visual Studio. Unfortunately, in Microsoft's infinite wisdom, secure FTP servers cannot be used. Rather than use an insecure FTP server, I want to set up my secure FTP server to be able to access whatever I need to on the machine, and then add an insecure FTP server that only has access to the directory where I put my update files. I am currently using vsftpd as my FTP server. Is there any way that I can set up two FTP servers on this single machine?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a CentOS 5.3 box with three network interfaces in it. Each interface is attached to a separate VLAN and I want traffic to stay on each network segment.What I can�t figure out is why I cannot get each interface to have its own gateway and everything gets sent through the default gateway.The basically takes my possible 3Gb total bandwidth and throws it down a single 1Gb pipe.Then on top of that, if I take down the interface (ifdown) that has the current default gateway,I loose contact to the other two interfaces.When I look at the routes, each one of the interfaces shows the gw as 0.0.0.0 and defers to the default route. So I delete the route and try to add a new route with:

I would like to have multiple php.ini files for multiple sites.
I've a production site (word wide available) and a test site (available to some selected IP-addresses). I would like to set some different PHP settings for the test site, for example, 'error_reporting' and 'display_errors'.
Is this possible? I'm not looking for some CGI hack, unless it wouldn't work any other way.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to work with a project manager and some hardware guys and all of us are trying to get a grasp on the UEC.
1. Can a VM span multiple nodes?
2. If a website scales beyond 100% CPU on a node, does it automatically spill over to another node and start using processing power there?
3. Do I have to rewrite the code of my web app (such as WordPress) so that it works in a private cloud?
4. Does KVM support virtual memory such that when I run out of RAM it uses paging?
5. How is UEC any different than me bringing up several servers with several VMs inside, and then moving VMs around as I need? Is it really a cloud where the VMs exist in a cloud, not necessarily a node?
6. If I power off a node while it's hot, how can I assure myself that the data will be okay?
7. Do I want to use SCSI attached RAID, or NAS, or NFS? We're simply trying to host thousands of blogs and LAMP sites in a way that we can handle spike loads.
8. Do I attach the disk volumes to the cluster controller and then run a command such that the nodes can mount those virtual volumes?
9. Do I need to run another command on the VMs to mount volumes that the nodes can see?
10. What is the role of the storage controller and how is it separate from the cluster controller?
11. How many systems, minimum, do we need to get this tested out?
12. For testing purposes, can I install UEC on an Intel P4 server and then a node on Intel P3 server -- even with some limitations?
13. Let's imagine I have 5 node servers, and one catches fire and is a total loss. Can I get those VMs back and get that data back? What would have to be the proper config to make that happen?
So I've got a home server hosting a website for my restaurant, but I'd like to get another server up to get some redundancy going.
I have another machine I'd like to set up at another location to take over retrieving requests sent for the website whenever my home server goes down. I've got my domain through [URL], but the domain is hosted through [URL] for their dynamic dns service (because im not using a static ip).
So I'm guessing having another server set up is just a matter of setting up dns records, however I don't know where to begin with setting that up. Any words of wisdom out there?
I'm curious how I can use a Windows client with two separate accounts to connect, at the same time, to a SMB server hosting two shares. (Provided permissions and accounts are all in order)
Scenario:User1 is always logged onto a Windows client mapped to a Public share on a Linux SMB server.I need a way to keep User1 connected to the Public share and then when needed, allow User1 to provide User2's credentials to connect to a Restricted share.The only way I've been able to do this is to disconnect from the Public Share then reconnect to the Restricted share using User2's credentials. (This is the issue because I need to keep User1 connected to the Public share).Is this a limitation of SMB? Or am I missing a configuration? Please point me in the right direction
I have a test server on which I'd like to run up to 30 separate instances of a program as daemons, each running on a different IP address bound to the server. I've created a init script that takes an additional command line parameter - the last octet of the IP address. For example:
Code:
sudo myprog 40 start
sudo myprog 41 start
This would run instances of the program on IP addresses 192.168.1.40 and 192.168.1.41 respectively. But it's looking like this approach isn't doable if I wish to have any or all of these run at startup, as the links in the rcN.d directories can only link to the init script, not pass a parameter.
(tangent to my other thread "Karmic -> Lucid not booting"). I have four hard drives on a Lucid box, and (as it happens) the fourth drive is the boot and root. Could I also install grub on the other three (ext4) hard drives, keeping the same root? Will this disturb the data there? How would the machine decide which copy to use, anyway?
