View 9 RepliesI believe my old pIII Dell's network card running Ubuntu server 8.04 is busted. I need to replace it.
how to go about this. Do I just install the card and does it auto-install drivers or is there something else to do?
I have a good grasp on windows server 2003 but I don?t want to pay outrageous license fees for software and services and clients. I am newish to terminal as I only know a few commands. I have no problem installing services for the server edition for 10.04. Its just understanding whats going wrong to troubleshoot. I guess there is you guys and I have good working knowledge of Cisco's IOS's so I understand things like routing tables and interfaces and such for troubleshooting.
Questions I have... Can I install the desktop version of 10.04 and just install the server services? I was looking at the server guide [URL] and would like to know if these can all be installed on the desktop edition without too much trouble. I would imagine one could just use the server edition but I would really want a graphical user environment for some of the activities, if not all that I can. This would be becuase on my skills in the CLI. I priced out a server from Dell. I fits my budget perfectly if I go the Ubuntu 10.04 route. I was wondering if anyone sees any conflicts with the hardware for the Ubuntu OS....

I've installed the Ubuntu 10.04 Server onto a PPC G4 Mac just for the experience of setting up a server. During the installation process Ubuntu couldn't auto-configure my DHCP Network. I'm using the airport card on a wireless network. How can I manually configure the network once Ubuntu is installed.

I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 beside my Windows XP on my laptop:
Dell XPS 1330
I`m now facing some problems with my new OS :
1. The driver for my wireless network card isn't recognized although I have installed the recommended driver which was in Ubuntu Hardware Driver section.
2. When I connect my laptop to my TV using HDMI port, the screen is OK but there is no sound!
3. When by any reason my network cable is unplugged, the whole network service goes down and I have to restart the system.

so i just downloaded Ubuntu Server 10.04 and i'm very happy with it on my virtual machine... but when i try to install it on my actual server it fails.
When i went to install it, it told me that there was no network hardware detected or something like that. So i just thought i could install a driver for it later.
So other than that all went well. and im very happy but now i dont know how to install my network driver. The card is a LYNKSYS LNE100TX. i downloaded the driver software and burnt it to disk because i was out of floppys. (I like floppys better) and when i went to install the software it allmost worked but it said:
Code:
make: gcc command not found
I'm assuming that means i need to install gcc but didn't really know how to go about it having no internet.
I have Fedora11 running in my machine and it has no LAN port (RJ-45). I have a wireless PCMCIA card.The model of the wireless card is NL-2511CD EXT2(ETSI).When I insert that card to the PCMCIA slot a window pops up and ask for a WEP key. My wireless router is configured with WPA but above pop-up has no WPA option. I suspect my fedora installation does not have the necessary driver for my wireless card.I want to install that driver. I can transfer that file to the machine via thumb drive since it has no network connection yet. How do I install this? Please refer below images as I'm still a newbie at linux.

I have a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721 network card on my server at work.Everything works fine for a few weeks, then randomly the network connection on the server will stop working. After it stops working, I will try to reconnect with the network manager, it shows a wired connection available, it shows the "connection in progress"animation, then the "connection disabled" icon.
I uninstalled the network manager and used manual configuration, but do you think the network manager was the issue? I can't have the server disconnecting randomly every few weeks with no way to know what the real problem is. Was there an issue with the network manager with 10.04?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've come across TFTPD32 as an application to help install Ubuntu Server 10.10 on my 32-bit Gateway Solo 5300 so that I could use it as a test server. I am attempting this method since neither the cd drive or usb drive work properly (the usb only working after logging in). However, I currently have no OS after half installing Ubuntu and accidentally shutting it down after it deleted the hard drive's contents-BIG mistake. It currently only boots to a black screen and a flashing underscore in the top left corner.how to network boot because I have never done it before and I don't fully know what is involved. Below is some-things you might want to know about what I have in hand:
-Old Gateway Solo 5300 Laptop with no OS(32 bit, 256MB RAM, RJ-45 jack, 10 GB HDD)
-Acer Aspire 570Z with Windows Vista Premium 32-bit(3GB RAM, 120GB HDD + RJ-45 jack)
-STORED ON ACER ASPIRE=Ubuntu boot files, TFTPD32, Unetbootin.
-Blue Ethernet cable, Yellow crossover ethernet cable.
-Router and modem
In total, what are the steps to have Ubuntu Server 10.10 edition succesfully installed on the old Gateway.
I own a ubuntu-server (2.6.35-22-server x64) - a home router / NAS / etc assembled at the mini-itx motherboard with no attached keyboard / display.The problem is that the system does not detect the occurrence of SD-card in a USB-card reader. Card reader is normally detected and visible in the system.When I insert SD-card in cardreader, in "dmesg" and, accordingly, "udevadm monitor" does not display any events.If reboot with connected SD, everything works fine, but, of course, there is no event when removing SD.On the forum topics if problems arise, it is only with automounting. But it's not. I do not have events from kernel, that he discovered the SD-card.In the desktop version there is no problem.I installed the generic kernel; comparing kernels configurations for desktop/server versions, comparing the output "udevadm monitor" at the time when I inserted the SD-card on desktop/server, etc. - useless.I don't have more ideas. I don't understand something. Probably there is no package.Almost ready to give up, put the desktop version and delete unnecessary.On desktop versions missing events displayed as follows (the output "udevadm monitor" when inserting SD-card):
Code:
KERNEL[985153522.094479] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-5/1-5:1.0/host4/target4:0:0/4:0:0:3/block/sdf (block)

Previously work normal. Started from some time ago, after reboot the server, the network card cannot be automatically started. Need to go into YAST's wired network which will activate the network card. Having checked 'chkconfig', the 'network' is on. Where can I check if they is any error log about auto enabling the network card?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm dealing with two dedicated servers hosted at liquidweb. The basic idea is that one machine might not be enough to handle the traffic at launch so we have a second machine to shoulder the MySQL duties -- it seemed a natural way to divy up computation burdens.
The support staff at LW tells me that each machine has three network cards
1) Public-facing NIC through which all public visitors are served
2) NIC on LAN so that liquidweb can access the machine locally for maintenance and support
3) Third NIC so that the two machines can speak to each other rapidly on their own private network. Apparently the two machines are connected via crossover cable.
It's my understanding that machine 1 has IP of 192.168.0.1 on this third card and machine 2 has IP of 192.168.0.2 on its third card. For some reason, these machines cannot speak to each other using ping, telnet, ssh, http, or MySQL.
I've contacted tech support about this issue but was wondering how I might be sure that the MySQL traffic transits the third network card on each machine. I'm guessing that it's just a matter of using the third card's IP addresses but want to be sure. Is there any way to specify a NIC when connecting via MySQL?
I'm setting up an LTSP server using Ubuntu 10.4 64bit, and PXE connecting with thin clients using Atheros cards. The ltsp environment is 32bit.
Unfortunately I get an error message with "No interfaces found! Aborting..." and a kernel panic early during PXE boot.
After an enormous amount of investigation, I've narrowed it down to (probably) being the fact that the ltsp chroot environment doesn't have the correct driver for my network card (I believe it's atl1c). The correct driver IS available in Ubuntu, though, as I can successfully boot the thin client from both 64bit and 32bit live CDs and bring up the network interface.
how can I install the correct driver in the PXE environment?

I have a domain name and an SSL Certificate setup on our security router. I can access our web interface on our security router with no problems.
I've setup a portforward rule on our router to access this OpenVPN-ALS portal and I can access it, but I get an invalid certificate message. So I've bought another SSL certificate to install our our Portal, but I'm getting an error message when I enter in our information at the provider where I've bought the certificate.
Common Name does not contain fully qualified domain name. I'm not sure what the problem is. Do I use the hostname I've setup on the portal or do I use the hostname on my security router when I setup the SSL certificate on our portal?

Now the first one contains bind utils the second one is for running DNS in a chroot env and the last one is a bind with some DB backend.
Does this mean that fedora 13 doesn't support/.provide "standard" bind server (I mean the one to run without chroot/without db backend) ? Or am I missing anything in my repolist which is :

Background: I need some help regarding install X server/apps on a headless(ie. no monitor, no graphic device) server. The server is in fact a virtual one by Amazon EC2. So there's no monitor nor any graphics hardware. Fedora server (6, i believe) is pre-packaged. The problem is that I want to be running a server app with a GUI. The app won't start without the GUI (and I probably need to tweak a few things through its GUI too).
I plan on setting up very very bare minimal X on the server and then uses NX for remote access. Can somebody shed some light here?
Simply put, my questions are:
1) What would be the minimal list of package i need to install?
2) Where can I find docs about installing and setting up NX? I could only find very fragmented/outdated docs about it.
I am still puzzled by IT guru who still install a server version of Linux using the default partition system. I am curious about what the IT guys in this forum think about this, even when the server is part of a cluster.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an EeePC 4g netbook which only has a 4Gb hard drive and I thought I would like to install Fedora 13 on an 8 Gb SDHC card and use it to boot the netbook.
As neither the netbook nor I have an optical drive, I made a bootable USB memory stick using Unetbootin which boots the netbook and could be used like a live CD to install Fedora.
On booting with the live USB stick, with the blank SD card in place, and clicking on the install icon, the installation starts but then there are 2 problems; the first is that the installer appears to want to install to both the SD card and also the USB stick. There is a tick in the box beside the USB stick which I can't remove.
I decided to ignore that and put a tick in the box beside the SD card but when it got to the point where it creates partitions it said "Could not find enough free space for automatic partitioning. Please use another partitioning method"
Surely 8 GB is more than enough space for partitioning, so where am I going wrong and why does it want to install on the USB stick as well?
I have a client with a pair of Supermicro 6025B-T servers that he wants to have Ubuntu 10.10 64bit Server running on for VM/Cloud experimenting. He needs these to be set up RAID 10. I can go into the Adaptec utility and make the array and make it bootable and get to the point in the installer where it asks me if I want to use the SATA array - then it gets to the partitioning screen and the array is nowhere to be found.
