Is there a way to make a program use a specific network interface ? When using my laptop at work i may be physicaly connected to multiple networks. i was wondering if i can make sure that certain applications use a specific network interface. I would google around for the answer but i cant figure out how to phrase it correctly for a search.
View 2 RepliesHow can I force a Wine application (or Wine itself) to use a specific network interface? I have installed hamachi and am trying to play starcraft over virtual LAN. However, when I run Starcraft with hamachi running, it does not work. I have now determined that hamachi creates a network interface called "ham0". How do I force Wine/Starcraft to use the "ham0" network connection? I have looked into forcebindip but it crashes on wine.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to bind specific programs to specific network devices (not IPs, since I have dynamic IPs)?
For example, I wish for irssi to route through eth0 and w3m to route through eth1. Keep in mind these devices have dynamic IPs, so I cannot attached them to an IP.
The solution cannot be accomplished through route since route pivots on IPs not devices.
Suppose I have both a hardwired and a wireless network connection active on the same system at the same time. Can I tell my browser which one to use? Can I tell other programs which one to use? Or do they choose for themselves> Or does some automatic system protocol select which one to use for them?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAs part of my job, I have to configure a lot of network devices that are configured through web pages. This generally means plugging in to them via ethernet, going to their default IP address and reconfiguring them. I set my IP address using ifconfig, which is much faster than plugging numbers in to networkmanager's GUI. The problem is, NetworkManager seems to take the interface down at random.I could disable NetworkManager but then I don't have a wireless connection.Is there a way to tell NetworkManager to temporarily ignore what is happening on a specific interface or should I just ditch NM altogether when doing this kind of work and use wpa_supplicant to get on my wireless?My co-worker with the Windows machine is looking over my shoulder and chuckling
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an Asterisk-server with 2 interfaces, a WAN-interface (eth1) and a LAN-interface (eth0).
SETUP : IAX-provider(internet) --> firewall --> Asterisk-server --> switch --> clients_on_LAN
So everything coming from the IAX-provider on port 4569 is forwarded to the Asterisk-server's WAN-interface (eth1). This needs then be routed to an internal SIP-phone (an IVR-system will define which one) via eth0. When a call is initiated from an internal SIP-phone (they register to the IP-address assigned to eth0) it needs to be routed via eth1 to the gateway (192.168.4.250). Asterisk will setup an IAX-channel on WAN-interface (eth1) to the IAX-provider (via gateway). So... will this work :
Code:
route add -net ip_IAXprovider netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.4.250 dev eth1
Code:
route add -net 192.168.4.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0 (no gateway needed for the LAN-interface, communications to the gateway need to go via the WAN-interface !)
I want to record an internet radio station starting at 2:00am tomorrow morning. The specific program on the radio station lasts until 6:00am. The command I need to run to record the station is: Code:mplayer http://wjcu.jcu.edu:8001/listen.pls -ao pcm:file=indie_heat_of_the_night.wav -vc dummy -vo nullI'd use cron, but 1. I'm not sure how to and 2. it seems unnecessarily complicated for something that I only want to run once. If cron is the only/easiest solution, I guess I'll just have to resort to that, but I'd rather not.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running Debian Squeeze on an old pc (AMD K62-500) which serves as my multiwan router and torrent box. Internet uplink is provided via a dsl line and 2 wireless canopy modules.
Setup has been generally fine except when connecting/downloading as free user from sites like rapidshare, hotfile, filesonic, etc. The problem arises when I am connected to these sites using the wireless uplinks because of the shared public ip. I don't really download that much using direct download methods so I don't really see myself being a premium user from these sites.
If these sites are on a specific ip or ip range, an entry on the static routing table would have been fine but when I tried using ping, a different ip would appear to reply each time.
I wonder if there can be a solution like using iptables where in traffic to and from these sites will only use the NIC connected to the dsl line.
I'm hoping some of the Linux network experts can help me with this problem.
Situation: I have a technology which is a WebLogic JEE application that communicates to an Oracle database. Everything is installed in a single Linux virtual machine running in VirtualBox. Traffic from the JEE application goes via JDBC over TCP to the local running database. What I want to do is test a new database firewall server that wants all traffic destined for the database to flow via another virtual machine running the DB Firewall software.So therefore want I need to do is have DB traffic forced out over one interface only to return on another interface on the same VM listening on a different address.
JEE application running in WebLogic bound to 192.168.111.12 (eth1 a VirtualBox hostonly interface). Makes a request for 10.0.111.12 (eth2 a VirtualBox internal interface) which the database is listening on. Because both IPs are on local interfaces, Linux is going to handle the traffic and not route the 10.x traffic via the 192.x interface.I also have running the database firewall server which has a bridge (br0) between the HostOnly network and the Internal network.Both systems are running Oracle Enterprise Linux R5U4, which is basically the same as RedHat.What I want to do is have the request for 10.0.111.12 forced out via 192.168.111.12, bridged over the br0 connection and back into 10.0.111.12 and to the database. My networking knowledge is pretty good, but i'm stuck right now on the right way to do this. I'm pretty sure it is possible, I just need clear advice.
Reason for setup: Ideally I would build the system with the database on a separate machine so that I can easily route the traffic. Unfortunately we have many VirtualBox based demonstration systems with both the application and database installed on the same VM and therefore the amount of work to migrate these two dual VMs is going to be significant, also many of these VMs are demonstrated from laptops which have limited resources and creating a new database VM reduces overall performance. If I can create a way to force the traffic in this manner off and back onto the same VM via the other VM bridge, it would be fantastic.
I have a linux router with 2 physical ISPs and a VPN tunnel that all my traffic passes through. I would like to setup a rule to redirect all traffic from one internal IP address (10.0.0.x) through the physical link only. My current script is as follows.
iptables -F
iptables -X
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

My goal is to do something similar to the mangle on the tor traffic, but for an entire host.
Can I set up my system to use a specific processor to do one task, and another processor for normal applications.
Say for example, I'm using a program that relies heavily on your processor, I have a dual core, so I can use one core for that, and another for normal applications.

Anyone know how to launch a program from CLI (command line) to a specific viewport? I start programs all the time from the CLI and there are times when I'm in "typing demon" mode and don't want to touch the mouse. Being able to launch a program to a certain viewport (Compiz, w. effects) would be really helpful at times.
I'm familiar with wmctrl and i can use the -a and -c options to switch to and close windows fine. I only have 1 desktop (9 viewports, though), and wmctrl's support for viewport seems limited at best. Ideally, I'd like to launch a program to a specific viewport, but just being able to move an existing one to a specific viewport would work, too.
Please note: I'm talking about moving apps to viewports AD HOC or DYNAMICALLY, not in a fixed way like I believe devilspie and such (and Compiz' Place plugin). Depending on my task, I need to quickly launch several apps to different viewports, and this VARIES for me a lot. ubuntu 10.04 lts / gnome / compiz w. full effects
One thing I have had to do to launch Maya every time is disable SELinux.
echo 0 >/selinux/enforce
I type that each time before I launch maya. If I don't it wont start.
Not sure why. Essentially it makes it so I need to be su to run maya.
If I was setting up the workstation to be used by others as well how would I disable SELinux just for starting Maya but nothing else? Or how to do I tell SELinux maya is ok for regular users to run?
Is it possible to prevent a specific program (i.e. rhythmbox and its dependencies) from ever swapping to disk?I'm asking because I have a problem when a music player hiccups whenever Chromium hogs too much memory. Is there a way to work around this? This isn't a problem in Windows anymore so presumably there is a way.

I'm having here at home one quite addicted Farmville & similar game player which I would like to somewhat control in at least late night/early morning hours, Was browsing a while around for a program which could be used as a webpage blocker for several hours (predefined time), but all I came up was either scripts which I don't understand (I myself can be counted as a newbie in Linux stuff) and don't want to risk blindly or just user account time manager (timekpr).
I found a great solution in my case for MacOS users called SelfControl, but as you can guess ... there's no Linux native client for that. So, my question is - is there any easy and understandable way to block specific webpages for a predefined time period (let's say, every morning from 03:00CET - 08:00CET)?
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 Computer knowledge of the farmer: Getting on Farmville and/or playing Gnome's Mahjongg is pretty much all.
today I tried to configure a network route to a host for testing my network interface. Code: route add 192.168.1.15 eth0 As I have to eth interfaces and both interface got their IP from DHCP (192.168.1.11 and 192.168.1.12) and are in the same subnet, I shut the other interface down:
Code: ifconfig eth1 down Then I tried to test the interface by doing a ping to 192.168.1.15.
Problem: When I unplug the cable from eth0 (and eth1 is still plugged) the ping still works. Somehow my linux (it's debian) powers up again eth0 and pings over this port.
How can I stop my linux doing this. I just want to have the route added only on the one interface - not the other. Is it maybe some case of a default-gateway?
I decided I was going to compile XChat from source today for "fun." What I ended up doing was spending a few hours getting it to compile, then find out everything didn't work the way I thought it did. I was under the impression that after I ran "sudo make install" I was "upgrading", when in reality I'm just installing a seperate version alongside the old one. Apparently I have to keep the old version so every program that was compiled with it will continue to work, so how do I:
1) Force a program to use a specific version of GTK when compiling.
2) Find where my version of GTK installed to.
I've asked some people and I've just been told to "learn LD_PRELOAD". I've googled and can't figure how I could even apply that to my current problem
