Ubuntu Servers :: Setting Up DNS For Webserver
Nov 17, 2010
how to create an entire server from scratch using a minimal install. I know Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 comes with packages that can be included during install but for the sake of learning I only installed SSH access.
I was able to get Apache2, MySQL, PHP5 installed and running fine. What I'm trying to do next is setup DNS so I can point fragdata.com to my Ubuntu server and have other people see my test site.
I have registered the nameserver ns1.fragdata.com with my IP and updated DNS in my registrar. I followed the tutorial but "dig fragdata.com" gives me the following:
Code:
root@linux-server:/home/syvil# dig fragdata.com
; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> fragdata.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

Set up my own web server hosted at home that I can use a genealogy program such as GRAMPS or PHPGedView with so that family members and I can store, view and upload information online viewable only to other family members.I have a old Dell server from work to use as a server (I know specs are helpful but don't have them at the moment.)I know that there are web hosting sites that this can be accomplished with easier and cheap but I mostly want to use this as an opportunity to learn.I am extremely new to Linux but the love the power it offers as well as it's philosophy.So far I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 Server on the machine.
I installed Apache, MySql, PHP and various other things with it.I got all the way through but have some errors with ISPconfig set up and some when I reboot.My main question at this point is, is this the best approach for what I want to do? And then once it's set up where do I go to learn how to use my system.

I am interested in setting up a webserver on a PC I have laying around...more for the experience and knowledge of learning it from scratch. I have used dedicated servers before with webhosting, but did not do the installations of apache and other items. The server we had purchased had CentOS installed.
My question is, can I use this desktop I have to simply install the CentOS DVD torrent off their website, and start from there, with installing apache, and all the other items associated with a server environment to test/play around, or is there a difference and something I am missing with my plan to do this?
The end result will be having my desktop setup as a "server" I can ssh into and screw around with just to learn more about it.Sorry for the basic question. (i posted this here instead of the "newbie" section, since i figured it would get moved here)

I previously installed centos using DHCP. Now I purchased a domain name and want to set it up as a webserver. if I choose the static ip address based on the existing DNS server given to me by the domain company, it will ask for the subnet mask, default gateway and i do not have them.

I am setting up a web server and SElinux keeps stopping httpd/appache and making it fail. Everything works fine when SElinux is set to permisive, so I know it is SElinux causing the problem. I have all the apache/httpd items allowed in the SElinux bool and even added the line the troubleshooter told me to add but the problem still persists. Here is what SElinux puts out:
[Code].....
several times and it does nothing. I have all the permissions set to Apache as owner and group and allow execution on all the files.

I posted this question a while ago but haven't had any luck getting it answered so I reworded everything to make it more clear. I started an Ubuntu web server on an old work laptop. The purpose of this server is to host a small file-sharing site, a forum, and a wiki. I have no prior experience with command line Ubuntu but am trying to figure this all out.
So far Ive setup the LAMP server, so apache, mysql, and php are installed. Ive also installed phpBB3 and Mediawiki. Both phpBB3 and Mediawiki are able to open from inside my LAN. I also have SSH setup and am able to use putty to manage the server from inside my LAN. Mediawiki runs slow internally but this is a secondary concern.
Externally to the LAN I can access the webserver using SSH(but sometimes it is too slow for anything that opens up such as nano or the SQL password prompt to display and the connection drops). I can also browse to the site and see the default apache welcome message. But I cannot open the mediawiki or phpbb site. Both will sit indefinitely and not open. The access log on the server shows that the request is being passed through though.

In order to pass PCI compliance I need to upgrade our webserver from php 5.3.5 to php 5.3.6. I found this: [URL] however it doesn't seem to work. My best guess is due to the fact I have 64bit server. Is there something else I can do without going through a compile?
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 11.04

Codename: natty
Linux 2.6.38-10-server #46-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 28 16:31:00 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am trying to set up a webserver using Ubuntu server with the EHCP plugin. I have it working and can access the EHCP page by using the IP address on my local network (192.168.0.4) So far so good. I then set uo a domain using the Domain add new(custom)from the sidebar. I provided the following info:
domainname - learner
Panel - me
Panel password - me2
Ftp user - DACL
ftp password cullompton
Great I have now got a folder structure including httpdocs for that domain, I can also use filezilla to upload webpages etc to that folder, and have uploaded a page called index.htm One problem remains - what address do I type into the web browser to see the webpage. I've tried 192.168.0.4/learner which is what I expected to work.this will only ever be used as a web server on a local network, never on the WAN.

So in my first ever attempt at Linux (and servers) I was able to set up a working web server that is visible from outside my network and created a simple PHP page thanks to this tutorial. I installed MySQL and have some experience with MS SQL but have no clue how to get started setting up databases and writing procedures in MySQL. I know all the syntax about writing scripts for MySQL (assuming it's the same as SQL) but I don't know how to get started. Do I need to be on the web server or can I do it remotely? Is there a front end GUI that everyone uses?

I've several webserver (ubuntu 10.10 x64) on which I would like to be able to send mail like newsletter.I don't need to recieve mail on these servers, I'm using google Apps for recieving mail for the hosted domains.There's sendmail installed by default on ubuntu server..Previoulsy I was using Exim4 configured to use gmail SMTP server to send technical mails (apticron, logwatch, cron mail), but it doesn't fit for newsletter type of mailing.On my tries, I've wanted to setup Exim4 (just for the sending part, no inbox, and not using gmail stmp) which result in:
sendmail marked a uninstalled but still there and working Exim4 complaining about not being able to bind the port 25.I've removed exim4 (/etc/init.d/exim4 were not deleted...)I've reinstalled sendmail.I got this warning on installof sendmail: /etc/mail/aliases: 5 aliases, longest 21 bytes, 91 bytes total
How do I restore a working sendmail? What do I need to do so that mail sent from these servers aren't marked as spam? (not considering the content of the mail, but the server that send the mail) I see that some company used some specialized company like "grosbill.emailingoptin.com for grosbill.com" Should I specialize one domain for all newsletter ?

Ok let's say I have Apache Webservers on 2 different machines within my network, I have http://outterABC.com setup at dyndns.org to point to my modem at home, and my router forwards Port 80 to the ServerA Machine (i.e. 192.168.0.3). I can access my webpage I setup for the Server A Machine.
But what I want to try and do is somehow access my ServerB machine's website that is on my same network. I tried something like this http://ServerB.outterABC.com and the apache page came up with something like the page wasn't available. I want to access the content of the ServerB website, but because I have only one router, i can only forward Port 80 site traffic to my ServerA machine's website. I'm sure it's a different syntax I should use but i'm just not sure what I should enter to bring up the apache root web page for the Server B website via http://outterABC.com
I tried setting up DNS A records on ServerA, but I don't think it will work with what i'm trying to do above.

I'm trying to run Web server (nginx, does not really matter) "behind" VPN tunnel (i.e., on VPN client - the idea is that Web server is available at VPN endpoint IP on VPN server). Stock Ubuntu 9.10 Server with stock openvpn 2.1. No network changes done, only ufw is enabled and IPv6 is switched off. I need this box to be available at main IP address, no default route for VPN tunnel.
Tunnel itself works nicely, no problems at all. Hand-made static routes work via tunnel just fine. Problem is in-going traffic - I can see that it at least comes via tunnel (via OpenVPN debug), but is blocked (or dropped) by firewall or kernel. As far as I know, specific VPN server does not filter anything and is used for running Web servers on other IPs. I think I might need to set up some sort of IP forwarding for tap0 device to localhost - but don't really know where to start.
Tried disabling firewall, making Web server listen on all IPs (from localhost to VPN tunnel) - no luck. The box is in another country and KVM will be time and money, so I really don't feel like experimenting. openvpn.conf (IPs are obscured, non-relevant options removed, based on recommended config for that server):
Code:
# Setup
dev tap
remote 1.2.3.4
port 5091

I have small home atom-server on netbook (with damaged screen) with Intel Atom N450 1.6Ghz CPU and 1GB of RAM. I am looking for web server, that would not eat much resources when hosting wordpress blog (up to 50-100 readers at once in veeeeeery far future) - posts in most cases will be only text based, without big images or archives (I'm not sure if it is important).The brain of my atom-server is latest 32-bit ubuntu server, without X's, I access it from ssh console only. It is already:
- proxy gate for my internal network (squid)
- my gmail backup/IMAP (dovecot & getmail)
- file server for my internal network (samba)

I want to backup my apache website using tar. I want to make sure all the permissions and such stay the same so that if I restore a website, it's ready to go exactly as it had been.I am using the following command and would like to know if there is anything else I should neeed to do?
tar --xattrs cvzf backup.tgz /path-to-webserver-files
Now my other question is since tar doesn't store absolute paths, when I run the restore I have to be in the root directory? In another words if I run the command in a user directory will tar do something retarded like encode the paths as ../path-to-webserver or will it just be path-to-webserver so that when I run the restore from the / folder it will automatically go into the right place?

I had installed apache previously on my system, and I think I uninstalled it completely, although remnants might have remained. I have just installed zend server ce php 5.3, and I am having trouble getting it to work. When I log in to the admin interface, it told me it couldn't start the webserver, so I go to restart apache, and it gives me this:* Starting web server apache2 Syntax error on line 6 of /etc/apache2/sitesenabled/zendserver_gui.conf:Invalid command 'php_admin_flag', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configurationThis has to do with php_mod some how... but I am not sure how to fix this, or where to start, since I am relatively new to actually setting up apache.I thought this might have something to do with libapache2-mod-php... so I went to reinstall it, and ran this:
mburns@mb2449-laptop:~$ sudo aptitude install libapache2-mod-php5

I managed to install a networked printer to my box by
apt-get install system-config-printer-common system-config-printer-gnome
And using the system-config-printer, I can send print test page and it works.
Now, I noticed that I don't have lpr installed on this box.
So even if I install lpr or lprng I cannot seem to make it work.
Ohh and by the way, the only thing I use to print from that box is Acrobat Reader 9.. it is proprelly installed. I can see the networked printer entry from the program.. but for some reason Acrobat Reader 9 needs to use lpr to send the print job.
I wish to know what I am missing here.
I can do lpstat -v and I see my printer entry from there.
Now: the question: how can I setup lpr to work with my networked printer?
Should I install lpr or lprng?
What is the proper way to install a networked printer under Ubuntu-server?

I am having trouble setting up my second network interface on Ubuntu Server 10.04. When setting up the machine it did detect both cards but I only picked one to configure, and now I want to setup the second.
I went into /etc/interfaces and basically copied the settings for eth0 but changed the IP and the name to eth1. I then restarted.
Quite honestly it might be working! But when I run ifconfig -a I see no packets I see
Quote:
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0e:0c:59:af:c4
inet addr:192.168.4.21 Bcast:192.168.4.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
[Code].....
isn't that what "UP BROADCAST...." line means?
So perhaps my question is how do I test my 2nd interface? I tried using the 2nd IP with Putty (which is how I usually work on the machine) and couldn't connect.
