Ubuntu Servers :: Allowing Connections From The Outside World Through SSH?

Jan 9, 2010

I want to set up my laptop to allow connections to certain users with passwords from anywhere over the internet via SSH but I'm unsure about how I would go about doing this. I only thought it would be the case of setting up the open-ssh server on the laptop then, using my external IP and PuTTY on another PC outside of the network, connect to the external IP through port 22 so I tried this and wait 3 or 4 minutes or so and it says the connection times out.

I have also configured my router to use port forwarding but this doesn't seem to help much either and I have LAMP setup to allow connections to external IP : 80. The only thing I am able to do is access the laptop through the local network by using its internal IP's like 127.198.0.1:22 or something. I was wondering if anybody knows if and could tell me how I would do this as I really want to be able to access my home computer/laptop from my work sometimes, especially if I have work at home which is not with me at work or something.

I know this is possible but I'm quite new to this type of thing and don't know what is going wrong. Have I missed something or do I need to change any .conf files or anything?

Ubuntu Servers :: Setup The MYSQL Server - Error: 'Access Denied For User 'root'@'localhost' (using Password: NO)'

Mar 26, 2010

I set up a servber on my local machine, & also PHp - Both working fine.I'm trying to load up MYSQL i have installed it, & *can* start/stop the server. however if I do anything else with it, I get this error :-

Quote:

root@gordon-desktop:~# sudo mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password MYPASSWORD
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

Query :-

1) How do I know MYSQL is actually active ? (apart from the message it says that its statrted (or stopped).

2) Is there a way to

a) Find out the usernames that are recorded on the MYSQL server ?
b) set / RESET the 'root' username (I know MYSQL root user is different to PC root user)
c) anything else I can do on the PHP / website code to see if MYSQL is working

(as yet, no tables / databases etc have been set up - as I can't get past this error message - I get the same error when setting up a database.)

Ps I did allow my usermname (when logged in to ubuntu) to edit / create files in the /usr/www/ directory (but it is still OWNED by 'root' - that directory)

Ubuntu :: Allowing Incoming Connections On Port 22 From Anywhere?

Jul 19, 2011

I'm trying to get VNC working but I'm getting this error message:

Quote:

ssh: connect to host my_ip_address port 22: Connection refused

When typing:

Quote:

ssh -f -L 5900:localhost:5900 user@my_ip_address x11vnc -safer -localhost -nopw -once -display :0 && sleep 5 && vncviewer localhost:0

I'm trying to follow the instructions here: [URL] but I'm struggling with point 2 & 3:

Quote:

2. If you have previously reconfigured the firewall on your PC, make sure the firewall allows incoming connections on port 22 from anywhere, and on port 5900 from localhost (also known as 127.0.0.1)

3. If your PC is behind a home router, or any other device that uses NAT, configure your router to send connection attempts on port 22 (but not port 5900) to your PC

So my questions are:

1. I installed a fresh version of Ubuntu 11.4, should I be concerned about step 2? If so, how can I allow incoming connections on port 22 from anywhere, and on port 5900 from localhost?

2. Regarding step 3, I'm using NETGEAR model DGN1000 router. Is that something that I should do from the router's setting page or it's some commands that I should pass through SSH?

General :: Fedora 10 Stops Allowing Connections?

Jun 3, 2010

I have Fedora 10 set up as a server. Occasionally it will stop allowing connections, such as ssh, http, and samba. This continues until someone hits a key on the keyboard, and then it seems to come back to life and accept connections. At this point, the date and time will be wrong. Judging from monit messages that inform me when it stops allowing connections, I think the time freezes at whatever time it is when it stops allowing said connections.

Power Management has it set for the computer to never turn off. Sleep mode is also disabled in the BIOS.

I thought it was possibly the CMOS battery, but that has been replaced and the issue persists.

Someone previously thought it might have been Network Manager, but that is disabled due to issues it has with a static IP.

Ubuntu Installation :: 11.04: Remote Desktop Only Allows Connections As 'localhost'

May 3, 2011

Under 10.10 the settings dialogue for Remote Desktop said that other machines can connect to this one as kubuntu.local or 192.168.1.85 but after u/g to 11.04 instead of hostname or IP it now just says 'localhost' - which won't work for obvious reasons. I use RD a lot.

Also, despite 'Always display an icon' being checked no icon is displayed in the panel. I tried checking 'Never display an icon' closing the dialogue, re-opening it and re-selecting 'Always display' it still doesn't appear.

CentOS 5 :: Tftpd Only Accepting Connections From Localhost?

Jul 12, 2011

Having a problem with tftpd on CentOS 5.5. I am only able to download files from the localhost address.

I have checked iptables (by adding rules and by turning the firewall completely off -- nothing changes) and enabled tftpd logging (by adding -v to the server_args section in xinetd.d/tftp) and I DO see the request coming in, but no response from the daemon. I've also tried upping the verbosity by adding multiple -vs and/or --verbosity 10 to the mix, but all I ever see is the initial request come in, nothing more. I've even tried running the daemon in foreground mode with -L but I get no verbosity then.

Ubuntu :: Can't Run MySql Localhost And Apache

Dec 23, 2010

if I should ask this in the server section. But since I use the desktop version of Ubuntu I will ask here. Basically my server is going on pension. Hardware is outdated and all that. Since it's main job was serving me with MySql databases with web interfaces I sommer want to shift all of that over to my desktop and run my databases on the desktop. It's only me that access it so don't see why I can't run it localhost.

My question is. The three main things I need, apache, Mysql and php, are they in the repositories in Synaptec ? If not how hard will the install and config of those three apps be on Ubuntu Desktop? (I've always used Fedora as server with everything build-in so have no experience of installing mysql, apache and php from scratch)

Server :: Cant Connect To MYSQL On Localhost

May 28, 2011

Running MYSQL 5.5.12 and MYSQL Workbench 1:5.2.34 on up-to-date Arch linux Set up MYSQL with root account and password. When running Workbench as user, got error when trying to connect :

Quote:

Cannot Connect to Database Server Your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server at 127.0.0.1:3306: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)

1 Check that mysql is running on server 127.0.0.1

2 Check that mysql is running on port 3306 (note: 3306 is the default, but this can be changed)

3 Check the root has rights to connect to 127.0.0.1 from your address (mysql rights define what clients can connect to the server and from which machines)

4 Make sure you are both providing a password if needed and using the correct password for 127.0.0.1 connecting from the host address you're connecting from

After commenting #skip-networking in my.cnf error changed to :

Quote:

Cannot Connect to Database Server Your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server at 127.0.0.1:3306: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0

1 Check that mysql is running on server 127.0.0.1

2 Check that mysql is running on port 3306 (note: 3306 is the default, but this can be changed)

3 Check the root has rights to connect to 127.0.0.1 from your address (mysql rights define what clients can connect to the server and from which machines)

4 Make sure you are both providing a password if needed and using the correct password for 127.0.0.1 connecting from the host address you're connecting from

Copying my.cnf to /etc/ and running Workbench as root didn't change anything, i still get the second error The wiki [URl] says to enable MYSQL in /etc/hosts.allow but i didn't do it, i guess it is required only when trying to access MYSQL from remote hosts which i dont.

Server :: Why The Php Mysql_connect() Only Can Connect Localhost MySQL

Apr 17, 2011

I used 4 host to establish a high-availability web server system. 2 Load Balancer + 2 Web Server(installed MySQL Server 5.5). 2 MySQL Server used Multi-Master Replication.Used "Amoeba" as MySQL Proxy which direct the write statement to a specific MySQL Server.I can login Amoeba and MySQL Server using MySQL client. I tried query something in XAMMP on Windows XP. It work!

Installed related software:

MySQL-server-5.5.11-1.rhel5
MySQL-shared-compat-5.5.11-1.rhel5
php53-mysql-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1
MySQL-client-5.5.11-1.rhel5

[code]....

What I tried:

yum install php php-mysql
yum install php53 php53-mysql

Compiled php 5.3.6 soruce + MySQL 5.5 Server, Client, Shared, Shared-Compact Above software installed on different host. And the phpinfo showing MySQL I doubt something wrong in my php.ini. Used default php configuration.

Ubuntu Servers :: Snmp Not Allowing Outside Query

Aug 11, 2010

our 9.x servers are running perfect. Just setup 5 new webservers, running 10.04LTS. Have SNMPD running, installed and the same config for all the servers I just copied over, by config, I mean one line, that's it. So the servers have the following /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file rocommunity public

That's it. Now the only difference is looking at the ps on the local box's, a working one shows;

snmp 1096 0.0 0.0 50480 3756 ? S Jul02 9:21 /usr/sbin/snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -I -smux -p /var/run/snmpd.pid
where this one shows
snmp 4962 0.3 0.0 48540 5884 ? S 22:26 0:04 /usr/sbin/snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -g snmp -I -smux -p /var/run/snmpd.pid 127.0.0.1
Notice (I did flag it red) the local 127.0.0.1, but that co-incides with my

[Code]....

It almost seems something firewall is blocking, apparmor is not running, is there something else out of the box 10.04 has that I am just completly brain farting on?

Server :: Changed Root User Access For MySQL To Any From Localhost?

Mar 14, 2011

I did something silly and changed my root user access for mysql access to Any from localhost using webmin. I get an access dented when i try to open up the mysql editing page on webmin. Can any of you tell me if there is a way to change it back to hosts=localhost I am using webmin 1.5.30 on Centos 5.5. I am hoping I can change it by command line or if I can access the config files and change it that way?

Ubuntu Servers :: Allowing FTP Access To External HD Connected To PC?

Apr 19, 2010

I have proftpd setup on my Aspire Revo (which I'm using as an HTPC) so that I can download files to my mac when I feel like watching in bed or whatever. I recently purchased a 1TB WD Elements to store my media. I have proftpd setup so that I can access every file on the computer. However, when I try to gain access to the Elements HD, I get an FTP error from Cyberduck that says:

/media/Elements: no such file or directory

Note that I have not formatted the drive or anything - just set it up straight out of the box. My media is loaded on to it, and XBMC reads the files fine. Is there a way I can enable the hard drive (or the OS) to share these files over FTP, or is this not possible?

Ubuntu Servers :: Bind Phpmyadmin To Localhost Only?

Mar 18, 2010

Have basic LAMP setup on 9.10 box. I want to have a publicly accessible website AND I want to have phpmyadmin available. The only thing is I would rather not have the phpmyadmin interface available on the internet. I usually open a ssh port forwarded tunnel when I need to use phpmyadmin on this server. I want to add a directive to make phpmyadmin bind only on localhost. I have found the phpmyadmin config file in /etc/apache2/conf.d

phpmyadmin.conf -> ../../phpmyadmin/apache.conf

I have tried adding some LISTEN directives, but apache does not like my directives-- I am obviously not doing it right. I have looked for a bit on the internet and can't find out how to disable external access to a configured site in Apache.
