turning a Ubuntu 10.04 desktop into a server. Ok, so let me start off with my goal. I am using this machine for hosting only 1 website using joomla, php, mysql, and apache. I want a desktop version because I dont like the black and white terminal.
At this point I have successfully installed all Ubuntu 10.04 desktop and all updates.
When searching around for this solution, I found that I could run the command sudo apt-get install ubuntu-server and get all the features the server edition has. When running this command it comes back telling me that it cannot be found. I also found that both the server and desktop edition are the same but the desktop edition comes with all the extras that I will need to delete. I also found out that I will need to use lamp on the server to get php and all the other server stuff, but I also found that some people recommended that I install the server apps using the synaptic search. My question is, what route should I take to turn this ubuntu 10.04 desktop into a dedicated web server. (Not Test Server). Remember, I would like to stay with the desktop and not black and white terminal.
I'm getting my first server in a few weeks. I hear a lot about people using their server as a router. That sounds like an interesting prospect, as I think it would increase security and control, with all web traffic going through one central hub so to speak.If I do this, how do I handle wireless? Do I just hook my wireless router to my server, basically making the internet connection go through the server before it gets to the router?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI build a LAMP server behind a router. The current situation is:
1.I could access index.html of apache within the LAN.
2.I could access the vsftp outside of the LAN.
3.I could access the ssh outside of the LAN.
I have configured my router to do reflections(although I don't know it's correct or not.). I think the LAMP works good since I could use it inside the LAN. The configuration of the router is at least partly right because ssh and vsftp work fine(I test by browsing the ip:74.***.***.*** in the lan, not 192.168.1.8 --this also works. ).
I cannot access web service outside the LAN. And the error message is "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 74. Did I miss some configuration of router?Apache2?Ubuntu? I use the ubuntu server 2010.10 version.
I have an Actiontec GT724WGR and I am having problems with my Ubuntu server. I set up a subdomain on freedns.afraid.org with my main computer's external ip. However whenever I use the link that was made it goes to my router configuration page instead of onto my server. I have already set up a static ip for my server enabled DMZ hosting and under port forwarding applied every single rule that applied to servers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just finished setting up my small server, however I realized that no one can connect to it from the outside. The reason being is that my router is assigning internal ip's and dyndns is linked to that. I need port 80 for the Apache server, but if I have the router forward that port to my particular ip, won't it screw with everyone else's internet too?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've setup OpenVPN-ALS (formerly known as Adito) on Ubuntu Server 10.04 edition. I have a security router (Untangle) in front of my internal network. 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?
I am thinking of moving the router behind a server and connecting the server directly to the internet via a modem. Are there any security issues related to doing this? or other things I should be aware of. Iptables are implemented on the server blocking access on unused ports.

My ISP allows me to have multiple IP addresses (assigned by DHCP).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to obtain daily dynamic IP address from my router for remote user. In order to get into the router page, I need to login to it with ID and password.
Can I tell the server to do this every time it started up to login to router and extract the ip address and send out via email?
The router can only access through web interface and below is what I copied from browser.
My isp gave me a router which has wifi.
I added an ubuntu box acting as a router, so the layout is this:
Now, the lan has 192.168.2.0 subnet, and the external interface of the router is in the 192.168.1.0 subnet
So the problem is that the wifi assigns 192.168.1.0 ip's which doesnt belong or get filtered through my router/firewall...
If not should I just plug up directly into my modem?

I have linux server setup on a network with 2 interfaces. One (eth0) is connected to the regular network and the other (eth1) has a DHCP server and transparent web cache listening on it. The machines connected on the eth1 side are on a different subnet and the linux server is there gateway. Untrusted machines are introduced to this network to keep them isolated.
This isolation works well, too well. There are a small set of resources on the regular network I would like to make available to machines on untrustworthy network. I think I need to use iptables but alas I've had no luck in piecing together the command I need (in one case looking myself out and having to physically reset the machine).
For clairification, I can ping. I have tried several IP addresses and 100% success rate. When I noticed the problem I was trying to run sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade After some time I noticed these error messages to start with

I tried to ping the adddress security.ubuntu.com from my Windows machine to verify that I could connect and was surprised when I could. I then pinged the address 91.189.92.167 which is what my windows machine resolved the name as and it went though.
My thoughts on this are that when my Ubuntu Router came up, for some reason it did not incorporate the ISP's DHCP servers into the ip address it obtained. Sadly I know to view ALL IP infomation in windows via ipconfig /all command but I do not know what this is in the *nix world. need commands that I can use to check and troubleshoot this apparently DHCP issue so I Can start to update my server and expand on its services?
So what I want to do is setup a gateway(or router, idk what Ubuntu refers to it as.). So my set up would be Modem>Server>Switch>Router. I know that I need to set up it up as a DHCP server as well. I would also like to setup it up as a firewall too. I already have two Gbit cards that are already configured. So how do I do this? I already tried one tutorial, but it was old and was for Debian. I also installed ebox, but I couldnt figure that out either.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI currently have an Airport Extreme connected directly to my cable modem but have been wondering if I should actually connect direct to my proxy server first. The reason I am asking is because I run multiple web servers for web hosting and I have a proxy server setup that directs traffic to the appropriate computer based on domain names.
I have my router connected to my cable modem, and then all of my computers are connected thru the router. To me it would make more sense to have my proxy server be the first to connect and then thru a second ethernet card connect to the router. I also have a 5 port switch on order as well. So basically I'm asking for opinions now, in preparation for making some adjustments to my network and servers.

I am starting to hate using NetworkManager instead of the good old "network" option. This is my problem. I have a modem I got from my ISP. My F10 server is hooked up directly to this router, and gets a static IP address of: 22.34.45.33 (Hypothetical ip). I then have a wireless router on my network, that connects directly to my isp's modem, and gets a static IP address aswell. Attached to the wireless router are all of the desktops in my house.
I have more than one network card in my server, so I want to plug my server into my router so I can share files. Whenever I do this, I get DNS issues. My postfix cannot receive email, but it can send it. Once the local interface is disconnected, I regain the ability to recieve email from postfix. I am so confused. This is my first encounter using NetworkManager. I just switched from CentOS.
I'm going to start a new thread because previous searches have not totally satisfied my question. I've read all day about doing this but each inquiry leads to discussion of configuring the router. I am also not network savy. I would like to set up an FTP server on my home computer (presently Ubuntu 8.10). I have only one computer. I am using DSL with my telephone line for internet connection. I do not use a router.
Is it possible to do this with no router and only a DSL ISP connection?
