I was trying to install PEAR on a remote Ubuntu server using putty. I ran an apt-get install php-pear command and everything went smoothly, but now i cannot access the website as it says 'can't establish a connection to the server' and in firebug, it shows the status 'aborted'. I even tried adding the pear path in php.ini file and restarting the apache server but no luck.

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know what could be causing a Remote Desktop connection to a 10.04 box to be closing after some period of time? I have three systems all running 10.04 with Remote Desktop enabled. I'm using UltraVNC on Windows 7 to connect to them. If I open a connection and leave it open for a long time (like overnight, for example), when I come back in the morning, I still see the VNC window but as soon as I click on it, it closes. I can immediately open a new connection to the box but it now shows two active connections. At first I was thinking maybe there's an idle timeout value but given that Ubuntu still seems to think that the original connection is active, maybe the problem isn't on the Ubuntu side but on the UltraVNC side?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIf you do a search on the web you can find where to download Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection 7 client (rdp client). To get it to work under Wine (I used Crossover Office) actually was pretty simple. You will need to copy four files from an existing Windows 7 system. Two of them, mstc.exe and mstscax.dll are located in the C:WINDOWSsystem32 directory. The other two files, mstsc.exe.mui and mstscax.dll.mui, are located in a subdirectory within C:WINDOWSsystem32.
The name of the subdirectory will depend on the language and locale of the Windows system you are using. If your language is English and you are in the USA, they will be located in C:WINDOWSsystem32en-us. Copy those 4 files to some temporary directory on your Linux system. Next create a new Wine Windows XP "bottle". Use either Crossover or Wine to browse to the SAME wine C: drive subdirectories as on the Win7 PC (see above) and copy the respective files into each subdirectory in your Wine Bottle. Two files each into 2 different directories.
Next using either Crossover or Wine execute the RDC 7 application.
wine mstsc.exe
In Crossover you can just click the button the RUN a COMMAND and just enter "mstsc.exe". The RDC login screen should appear prompting for a Server address and a login ID. You can also change various other "options". I have not tested alot but it does seem to work pretty well so far.
I deleted my windows and now I am alone with ubuntu I use them before and now I can say that they are really awesome, basicly I want 3 things that I am using and then it will be really awesome.
- Remote Desktop Connection In Windows Server.
- A Virtual Camera Like ManyCam
- Putty Client

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was working on my desktop under Ubuntu 9.10 when I got a message in the the upper right telling me that my Remote Desktop Connection had been activated. I don't know who it was, but they proceeded to open up a terminal and start typing a bunch of stuff. This scared the living @#$^ out of me, so I didn't really pay attention to what he was doing and immediately dove for the reset button. I disconnected my network from the web and found that RDC was NOT password protected.
Now, I probably did this a little while ago while I was playing around with it, but I also set up an account with dyndns.org. Would this possibly increase the number of attacks on my network? Just in case, I have removed my listing. Also, would any of this incident be logged somewhere? How/Where would I look to see if I'm being poked and prodded for another security hole?
I am trying to connect to my Company network through VPN. I use a Lynksys router which is most likely not the problem, as I can get the VPN and Remote Desktop to work from a WinXP Pro laptop connected to the same router. I have tried several RDC clients, none of them establish a connection. The VPN connection is active, I can ping and Traceroute to it , but I cannot get the RDC to work. The RDC should connect to 189.0.0.10 on the company network.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen ever i run ssh -p <port> <user>@<remote IP>, i get a connection has timed out error. (i use the -p <port> part because i'm using a custom port). does anyone know what could be causing this? i know of a few *possible* problems, but i don't know how to test them all.
- I am on the same network as the server (I'm trying to test using remote IP to make sure it works before i go out an try it somewhere else)
-The router could be blocking it (i'm using linksys)
-IPtables may not be set up right (i think it is though. the only thing i've run is "sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport ssh -j ACCEPT". I have changed the port for the server since then. maybe i have to restart it or something for it to recognise the change? I know very little about IPtables though).
-maybe i have to change something in my client or server config files? (the only config file i've changed is the sshd_config file on the seerver, and that was to change the port to my custom port).
thats all i can think of for now. It may be none of those. I do have the sshd_config and port forwarding in my router set to the same port, so thats good.
My home linux box is behind a Linksys WRT110 router. I have enabled the Remote Desktop from System-->Preferences-->Remote Desktop. I then run TightVNC from my WinXP box. As I wish to run a secure connection, my first obstacle comes from PuTTY.
In PuTTY, my settings are as follows:
Host Name(or IP address) Port
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 22

I recieve "Network error: Connection refused" I have gleened all of this information from other boards and tutorials. I know there is something critical that I am missing.
Is there a way gnome can allow a remote desktop / VNC connection if no user is logged in? If the server gets rebooted I can't access it (remote desktop / VNC). Someone physically has to go there and log in. Surely there must be a way as gnome is running just waiting for a login.

I have a Debian VPS running Lenny and I'm trying to setup a way to run remote desktop sessions from it. I went with FreeNX, NX client for windows from nomachine, XDM and xfce4. All seems to have installed well, but I can't start an NX session on my box. I can connect to the server and authenticate, but the client hangs on "Downloading the session information," eventually timing out. The log output is below - I'm not even seeing an error message. Any ideas?
[Code]...
The only thing I noticed during install, which was about 400 packages since this was a barebones VPS, was that I should consider recompiling the kernel with CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND=y. I don't know if this has any impact on session information, however, since this is a new session, not one I'm trying to resume.
I have a need to support multiple remote desktop sessions. Each one seperate from the other and run concurrently.
Windows XP supports one. Widows server support two. How many will Ubuntu server suuport? How about Ubuntu desktop?
Currently using Ubuntu9.10 Desktop 64bit. I want to remotely login into this Ubuntu pc Gnome Desktop from my office Windows PC with a separate user and one particular application assigned to this user ID.

I am playing around with the idea of being able to use a cloud or instance based service to install Ubuntu 9.10 Server. This will enable me to have remote access via SSH command line.So far, I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 Server + Ubuntu Desktop to a virtual machine. I can access this via SSH and locally via the desktop. However, in the real environment the only access I am going to have initially is via SSH.
I would like to be able to connect using Windows Remote Desktop or VNC (whichever is easier and most importantly - most secure) to the machine.. even though the desktop is on there, I need to somehow configure the remote access all from the command line.I've had a read of various forums and have been trawling support forums for days but can't find a working solution for 9.10 Server or that fits my situation above where I will not have any physical access to the desktop or machine to configure remote desktop. It all has to be done via SSH/command line.
I am a novice in the world of cloud and recently managed to configure Ubuntu 9.04 Cloud (using kvm, eucalyptus and other packages) successfully at my college for my project work. The problem is that i can only manage to view the running instance using rdesktop from any remote machine. Is there any way to do this other than rdesktop/logs? Secondly, I want to develop a application on the lines of google docs as a part of my project. Is it possible to install apache server on this virtual instance, and host a website? How will the client access this website? Which frameworks would be required or do I have to develop one?
