Ubuntu Servers :: Finding Internal Ip In Virtualbox?
Feb 24, 2010
I have installed ubuntu server in virtual box. Everything works smooth. But when setting it up with my dyndns free domain and forwarding the ports in my router I cant seem to find my internal ip. i have tried ifconfig but dont really understand, which of them is the internal ip I dont even know if it works like that.
I have two servers on my network One with ubuntu 9.10 server And one with openSUSE 11.2.The ubuntu server is my webserver and runs phpsysinfo and my website. On the openSuse server i have a webbased application and some files that i want people to be able to reach by using mydomain.com wich points to my ubuntu server. Is there any way to do this?
I have one external ip address and a few domains. Would it be possible to have each domain on a internal domain and the box that sits on that external ip route to the internal. This would be for a number of server (mail, apache, imap, pop3, https ) So for example:
Some visit domain1.com ->external ip -> 192.168.10.100 Someone else visit domain2.com ->external ip -> 192.168.10.101 and so one with a number of domains
I saw in the tutorial "The Perfect Ubuntu 11.04 Server ISPConfig3" that it is possible to turn the internal ip into a hostname. Example: 192.168.1.170 -> myserver.example.com Example: 192.168.1.128 -> aserver.inet However, when I edit my /etc/hosts file and after I echo the name to the /etc/hostname file, it still doesn't work. I am using Ubuntu Server 11.04 (Natty Narwal) - ChosenOreo
I operate Server v.8.04 with Bind9 configured for my internal sites. I installed DHCP3 the other day and assigned static addresses for certain boxes on my network. However, only those static assigned boxes can view my websites internally. In other words, DHCP appears to block my DNS. Is there a setting that I missed or is there something else?
I'm running Ubuntu Server 9.10 and I'm looking to setup an FTP server. I have SSH running beautifully and it's accessible from any computer whether it be inside the network or coming in from the internet (provided you have the administrator username and password ). I've tried Proftpd and vsftpd and have failed miserably so far. Which FTP server application do you think I should go with and how could I go about setting it up through my SSH connection?
My current setup is this: - Ubuntu Server 9.10 with Fixed IP of 192.168.1.100 - 500GB Hard Drive - SDA1 = 512MB ext2 /boot - SDA2 = 2GB swap - SDA3 = 20GB ext4 / - SDA5 = 438GB ext4 /home - One User (Username = administrator) - Full SSH Capabilities - IP Address to DNS provided by www.dyndns.org - WRT120N Router with Remote Access and Port 22 Open
I basically want to set up a secure FTP server that anyone on the internal network can access as well as anyone from the internet (as long as they have a username and password). I want to setup a username and password for each user so that they all have read/write access to the same folder in my /home partition (I'll call it FTPSHARE).
i currently try to mount 4 internal sata disks using hal on a server installation?
i did
apt-get install hal and copied a .fdi script to /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/30-storage-all.fdi
as far is i understand now i need a hal/dbus client gnome-volumen-manager seems to be one apt-get install gnome-volume-manager
now im stuck there is no such executable like gnome-volumen-manager thus, how does it work? how can i start it? how do i know if and why the .fdi script works or fails?
since its a server edition and its purpose should be a very minimized server install i dont want a GUI like gnome fully installed
We have an Ubuntu server running on Amazon EC2, hosting a website. We also have postfix, in order to send mail (receiving mail is done by another server which is specified in our MX records). My problem is that the internal hostname of the machine ("domU-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.compute-1.internal") appears in some "Received:" headers in the emails sent. Is that normal? It seems rather peculiar to me, and I'm thinking some e-mail systems might consider it spam because of this. GMail doesn't consider it spam, but not all systems are as smart as GMail
What is the fastest setup to do this? All I want is an internally authenticated webmail server that other servers can send mail to for collection of test emails. Don't need LDAP or anything fancy, just a internal LAN only webmail server. I've got Squirrelmail setup on Ubuntu Server and can't get authentication setup with Squirrelmail and every tutorial I read is way over complicated or has nothing on how to authenticate Squirrelmail with internal, system users.
A church I've been working with has a CCTV system that has a web interface for viewing the camera feeds. We need to see the page from the outside, but it is just an HTTP page, no encryption. The box itself does not accept any sort of SSL encryption. How I can get this on the net in a secure way? At worst I could set up a remote desktop type solution, but I was really hopping I could use some apache magic and just re transmit the page to https and ssl encrypted.
we have a dual server setup: Windows server 2003 and Ubuntu 10.04 with apache installed with all the goodies. This is all virtualized. What I'm wanting to do, is make the new website we've created run on the Ubuntu machine, which it is, and be accessible outside the office. However, by doing this, we forfeit being able to use remote access or web exchange on Windows server 2003.
How can I create a link from the new website on Apache point to the internal server and it work outside of the office?
I have several web servers running apache on my LAN. Each internal server hosts a number of domains.I would like to make these available to the internet and make sure they all get to use port 80 and 443.My idea was to put Apache on the firewall and have all http(s) traffic from the Internet to my firewall be redirected by Apache to the different internal apache servers. This, in theory, would allow me to keep the standard http(s) port.
Can this be done? I was thinking of mod_rewrite and mod_redirect but in all honesty, I'm a little at a loss on where to start.Can someone point me to relevant documentation or give me the basic idea on how to start?
I'm not sure is this is possible or not, but what I would like to do is take my public address mydomain.com and configure a virtual host something.mydomain.com only instead of having the content on the same server I would like it to point to the IP of my virtual machine that is in my private network and display that page publicly. Does anyone know if this is possible, or how to do it? I have done this with port forwards, but would like them both to be on the same port.
I installed Apache2 and I added a second virtual host, now can i separate the 2 hosts and let them access 2 different internal test sites? For Example lets say"
User1 uses one IP User2 uses second IP
How can I separate it in Apache2 and in the /var/www ?
Every time I try to change file or folder permissions on a separate internal drive in ubuntu 10.10 desktop in sudo file manager, It sets it right back to the way it was before and doesn't save the permissions I want to change it to. The files aren't critical system files that are not even existent on this hard drive.
Its on a completely separate drive, Yet aren't I suppose to be in control of what gets changed to what? Instead of a Operating System doing something just for my safety? A simple AVI files permissions being changed shouldn't hurt anything. How to I stop ubuntu 10.10 from auto setting the permissions of my folders and files? Its really starting to me off right now. I've been looking around on google for Auto reset permissions for ubuntu, Haven't found one word about it. Yet I'm just going to assume someone might know how to resolve this? Or has dealed with this before.
I'm just trying to Forcefully set my folders on my separate drive all to 777 because they are all 775 and 755 and I can only access them with Write privileges if I run the SUDO file manager which I really hate having to do every so often I'm sure you can relate to how annoying it is to have to open up terminal and type something in to open a fully priviledged file manager.
Everything was working perfectly until i changed the internal ip of my router from 192.168.1 to 192.168.192 and now virtual hosting no longer works. As far as I can tell everything is setup correctly. I made no changes to the configuration files. Vhosts just literally stopped working. I've tried clearing dns cache not sure what to do at this point. I have tried to a2dissite and then a2ensite and reload the configurations but it literally just seems like apache is not looking for the vhosts in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled even though my apache2.conf still includes them
#Include the virtual host configurations: Include sites-enabled/ From the apache error log: [Sun Apr 03 16:41:50 2011] [error] [client 66.249.72.208] script '/var/www/index.php' not found or unable to stat
[Code].....
It looks like it's just not trying to use the vhost document root because when i go to blah.endofinternet.org it just takes me to the default site.
I'm trying to install 10.04 server into a virtual machine using virtualbox. When I start the virtual machine and try to install using the server ISO, I get the following error:
Code: This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot Here is my cpuinfo from lshw: Code: *-cpu:0 description: CPU product: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+
[Code]...
The host OS is 32bit Lucid Lynx desktop, and virtualbox works fine with a Win7 guest. Does anyone know why this might be happening?
I've 7 PC's on my network. I've to setup an internal mail service, to send mails inside the network. I've installed Fedora 12 on one machine and the rest run's on Windows XP. What all packages do I need? How can I configure it?
I'm in the process of setting up a script in perl to make 1,000's of curl calls to my companies application on our test server. Our software does all sorts of tracking of data based on IP addresses using geoIP, so i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to fake these addresses to the server?I know a big issue with the IP faking is the return path but i dont really need this. I also cant do it on the hardware level since the script is going to be picking lots of different IP's at random.Anyone have any idea if this is possible and if so, are there any known libraries i can use for this? I prefer perl but any Linux compatiblie scripting language is fine.
how to setup a local mail server for internal testing on my php development work. For example if I sent an email using php script to [url]....I should be able to check the mailbox of 'someone' either in Outlook or SquirrelMail.I have done some reading about this. All I know is that I need Postfix with Courier. But I just don't know to get it working.
while trying to open synaptic package manager i get the following errer "E: The package clamav-daemon needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report."
Every time my kernel is upgraded (happens often), I reboot and forget to reinstall the VirtualBox guest additions, so my partitions in fstab that use vboxsf (for shared folders) are hosed.
I'd like to create the smallest-possible installation of Ubuntu 10.04 Server x64 as a VirtualBox OSE VM. I want to run just one service -- a Bitcoin client. The standard installation is about 800 MB. By whatever approach, what's the smallest possible installation? I find various procedures for removing unnecessary packages. However, I suspect that there's a simpler approach that I'm missing. By simpler, BTW, I don't mean compiling it myself. That's far above my current comfort level.
