Ubuntu Servers :: Server Name When Using Dyndns
Apr 26, 2011
How should I set up my webserver when using dyndns?My server lives behind a private router, and I opened a nonstandard port for it (xxx.dyndns.org:6789)I need to be able to access the webserver both from behind the router, and from outside. But espescially wordpress needs to have a defined specific site-url for each site, which I can not get working both inside and outside the router. Inside I now just just the local ip-number, which works ok. To access the server from outside, I have to redefine the site-url to "xxx.dyndns.org:6789", but then it is not accessible from behind the router.

I have setup a web server, ftp, ssh with ubuntu server which is working with phpmyadmin and webmin installed with it as well. (I am considering upgrading to 10.04LTS when it comes out)
However I cant get to my website with the domain name that I am using from dyndns. From on my LAN I can get to my server but using it ip address (10.10.0.200) and it work fine with ssh and ftp as well. But when I try my public address or my name it does not work. I am using IE8 as I am using a windows machine. Out side the network the domain name wont work at all, but I tried my public address and everything worked perfectly.
I have recently installed ddclient to see if had made any difference but no luck. But I am keeping it there as it is working and updating my ip address.

I have recently developed the need for having a file server and am interested in setting up my desktop as a Samba File Server. The problem is that I need to be able to access it from outside networks (physically I'm about 10 miles away from my home network),o I need to also set up some sort of DynDNS service so that I can access the server from anywhere.With this, with setting up a DynDNS, setting up Samba, and setting up my machine to be secure enough for these types of actions. (I just want to make sure it is secure enough since it will need to be detectable from the internet.)

I do not know a lot about Ubuntu Servers, but I made one. I wanted to set up a web server using Apache and DynDNS. So far, I have created an account on dyndns.com and installed apache. I also installed another program (i dont remember the name) that had something to do with DynDNS. Right now, I can access the page on my server by using eLinks (text based web browser) and going to the address (myaddress.dyndns.org). If I try to access it from any other computer, I get a page that says 'Unable to Connect'.

I have an Ubuntu Server, a dyndns account and an account with [URL]. My DynDns stuff is all working just great - novo.dyndns.tv is the address. Now I need a domain which I have already bought, to be linked to that machine at [URL] I signed up with freedns.afraid.org and now I am a bit confused at what records to add where. I added a domain - [URL] then setup a webforward as follows: redirect from [URL] and redirect from[URL] to [URL] , however if you go and visit:[URL] you will see my problem! It takes you back to [URL] server and says there is not a webforward setup for [URL]This tells us that the nameservers are all setup fine - and its something in my freedns config which is failing.

A week ago or so neither ssh nor scp were working when attempting to connect to my on-campus computer from home. ssh was complainig about the key not matching and I figured out I could just delete the config file it was reading the (now old) key from and let it create a new one with the updated key upon prompting me whether or not to trust the remote host.
However, even though ssh is now working, I can no longer use scp. I issued scp -v and discovered a bunch of errors. scp prompts me for the remote password and even prints the message of the day on the remote computer but then just hangs and doesn't seem to be copying any files. I'm sure the issue is with the whole key change issue but I can't quite figure out why ssh would be working just fine and scp would be failing.

I've recently set up an Ubuntu server and from within the network I can do several things like: log in via SSH, transfer files via FTP, and remotely control Torrents from other computers. My end goal is to be able to access these services by using my dyndns hostname (example.dyndns.org)from an external network.
When I type my dyndns name in my web browser it opens up my router page. How would I set things up so that I can just type my dyndns hostname to point directly to my server, instead of the router page?
All computers are connected to a router which is connected to an ADSL modem, with automatically assigned I.P addresses.

I just switched to Ubuntu from Win7 and want to setup VPN connection to my office network. On windows I was using SonicWall Global VPN client using details:
Host: <myname>.dyndns.org
User: <user>
Pass: <pass>
I read in DynDNS.com that simple VPN connection from network manager will not work here and ddclient need to be installed.

I've only installed Ubuntu 10.04 Server yesterday, and it was the first time I had ever used it. As far and I can tell I have my Apache server up and running. When I go to localhost I get the 'It works!' page.
I tried checking my port in Windows, after I have Xampp loaded up, it says the port is working fine, and the site loads up properly, which leads me to believe the problem not in my router.
I've installed ddclient and put the proper information in as far as I can see but it still doesn't work. I've been testing my port here: [url]
And here is what I have in my ddclient.conf:

I'm trying to create a VPN-Tunnel so that I can access my home-LAN via internet. I've got a Draytek Vigor 2710n Router and a T-Online Internet connection.
For the reason, that my WAN IP changes about every 24h, I've registered at www.dyndns.org. When I've understood dyndns correctly, my router tells my ddns host, which WAN IP it has and my VPN clients requests this IP from the ddns host? What ever, I activated DynDns and created an account. Provider is dyndns.org, type is dynamic. Domain name is XXXX.dyndns.org. Username and password is set as given by www.dyndns.org. When connecting and checking the log, it seems to work as the result is:
"DDNS is updating
A= "username", H="address given by dyndns.org", U=1
Connecting to the DDNS server
Return Code= good (IP Adress)
Updated successfully."
Anyway, I'd like to start with PPTP, because it seems to be the easiest and most compatible solution (although not the savest).
I'll begin with my router's setup. I've activated PPTP VPN Service. Dial-In Authentication is PAP or CHAP. Dial-In Encryption is Optional-MPPE. Mutual Authentication is off. Next is the Dial-In Users setting. I've created an account. Timeout is 0. Dial-In Type is PPTP. Username and password is configured. That should be all concerning the router.
Now, I'm trying Ubuntu 10.10 to create the VPN tunnel. Gateway is XXXX.dyndns.org Username and password as setup in the router's menu. Authentication method is MSCHAP and MSCHAPv2. Use Point-to-Point encryptions is activated. Security is Default and Allow stateful encryptions is activated as well. Next 3 checkboxes are unchecked and Send PPP echo packets is activated.
Well, it doesn't work. I must admit, I'm a noob at VPN, but I really don't have a clue, what I'm doing wrong. Perhaps you can tell me?
PPTP VPN to my university via Ubuntu works.

I am trying to remotely update my dyndns using the commandwget --no-cache h ttp //$USR:$PWD@$DYN_HOST/nic/update hostname=$HST&myip=$MY_IP(the h ttp : // is because I can't post links yet...)when "MY_IP" is my remote computer's ip,but the dyndns seems to ignore this parameter.. It updates the "real" ip that I have in the computer that running that command..I read previous threads an saw that someone used --no-cacheSo I tried that and it did not work for me.

If you are running a home server/website, and want a domain name, currently you can use dyndns and others etc. to get a free one and use that so people can find you by name. So my question is, can it be done on your home server without having to use eg dyndns or others.

I have a registered account with DynDns, and every month I am sent a reminder that my account will expire because it is not in use (i.e. inactive). I think the problems stems from my system's inability to register itself on a periodic basis using ddclient. This is the error I am getting:
Code:
Mar 4 06:53:09 iceland ddclient[2352]: WARNING: cannot connect to checkip.dyndns.org:80 socket: IO::Socket::INET: Bad hostname 'checkip.dyndns.org'
When I ping 'checkip.dyndns.org', I do so successfully. I can also connect to its port 80 (using a port-scanner application I developed). So why the error? I get the same error message every 5 minutes. I have a Fedora 9 OS. Below is the relevant portion of my /etc/ddclient.conf file (with the username and password changed for security purposes):
Code:
...
## To obtain an IP address from Web status page (using the proxy if defined)
use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address' # found after IP Address ...
Somehow I feel that the contents of /etc/hosts may be responsible for the error, but I'm not sure.
Code:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost iceland.localdomain iceland
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost
My system's name is 'iceland'.

I should say that I'm not an expert of linux or sendmail. On my way to learning I'm trying to setup my sendmail server at home using free dydns account(server1.dyndns.org). I can send and receive emails to/from @hotmail, @yahoo, @gmail (the ones I've checked).
Code:
Following is access file (access.db created using makemap hash)
Code:
Now I'm trying to forward emails coming to my local inbox(tux@server1.dyndns.org) to my hotmail account. For this to work, server1 should be able to RELAY messages originated from hotmail.com, so I added hotmail.com entry to access file. Also I've made ~/.forward file:
But the problem is I receive an error message in /var/log/maillog & also a message is sent to root@server1:
Code:
Part of message sent to root@server1 is:

I am using dyndns to keep track of my smartphone's ip address. The idea is to be able to ssh into my home network, protected by an iptables firewall. If I use the command: # iptables -I INPUT 9 -s myname.dyndns.org -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT it updates using the current ip address, but the next time I get an ip address update to my phone and update dyndns to properly provide nslookups, this is not being updated in iptables unless I restart my firewall. Is there a better way to do this?

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'
From: [url]
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 own a rather large website/forum devoted to Scuba utilizing vBulletin. The problem is that its become INCREDIBLY slow as of late. I have three Ubuntu web servers under a single Ubuntu load balancer and they draw from a CentOS 5 DB server running MYSQL. Here are my concerns:
-I am thinking that they are all 32 bit rather than 64 bit.
-I am thinking that the problem is an IO issue.
