Ubuntu Servers :: Win7 Vnc No Longer Connects To 10.10?

Mar 8, 2011

All of a sudden, I could not connect to my ubuntu 10.10 server from Windows 7 using vnc this morning. When I open vnc on windows 7 and hit connect, it goes away like its going to connect but never pops up the screen. If I try to connect to my other ubuntu server, it connects quick and I'm able to navigate in it.

Ubuntu :: Net No Longer Connects Within VM (W7 Host) / Troubleshoot This?

Sep 18, 2010

I've been running an Ubuntu VM (10.04 LTS) on my Win7 (Home Premium 64bit) desktop successfully for several months now using VMPlayer (v3.1.1). My problem began when I booted up the VM today - my wife decided to reboot the PC without gracefully closing down my applications when Windows told her that she needed to reboot to complete security updates.

When I booted up the VM, the Ubuntu desktop went right back to the exact same state that it was in before the host reboot - the same programs were open, I didn't need to log in, etc. However... I now have no networking. The network icon (NetworkManager Applet 0. shows the red exclamation point. If I click on Auto eth0, it attempts to connect for a bit, and then says "offline".

My VMware Player settings for this VM are configured for bridged networking, and the "network adapter" icon shows online. If I go into the VMWare Player settings and change the networking to NAT, and then click on Auto eth0 again, the networking comes online. However, I don't want NAT - I want this Ubuntu client exposed to my network with it's own IP address.

At this point, I'm really not sure if the problem is within Ubuntu or within VMWare Player, or something on my Win7 host. I have zero skill at troubleshooting within Ubuntu - still fairly new to the linux scene. My Windows firewall is turned off. DHCP is enabled on my network, and the router is available.

Any ideas on how I might further troubleshoot this problem?

Ubuntu Networking :: 11.04 No Longer Connects With Droid Hotspot

Jun 26, 2011

Sony Vaio X upgraded to 11.04 with 2.6.38-8-generic i686 which improved some features but which introduced a serious WiFi problem: while other WiFi works well, connecting via my Droid hotpsot fails consistently despite reboots of everything and renaming of SSID. Another laptop running 10.04 still works fine with the Droid hotspot. One hint: upon upgrading, there was the warning that the laptop hardware did not support Unity and I always get the classic Gnome display.The Droid hotspot shows up in the list of SSIDs but attempts to connect always fail, even when it is made totally unsecured.

Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter
Qualcom Sony Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem
ifconfig shows no packets with wlan0 or any connectivity.
iwconfig shows correct SSID and other info.

Ubuntu Servers :: Back Up Windows PC As It Connects To The Network

Mar 22, 2011

I have a little home server with Ubuntu 10.10, actually it is already backing up my web hosting daily via a cron.daily script.. But I would like to do the same with my Windows laptop, which would it be the best way to do so?

since the Ubuntu pc is (almost) always turned on it would be no profit to have it mount the Win PC at startup, indeed I could have a cron.hourly script to check if the Laptop is connected to the network and to back it up once a day, thus by checking a small text file with written the date of the last backup BTW how do I check if the Win PC is connected to the network? How do I mount it via samba? Do you suggest to backup stuff simply moving files, via tar (as I already do with my web host) or with rsync?

Ubuntu Servers :: Smbclient Connects To Windows 7 But Can't List Any Files

Sep 23, 2010

I've recenelty setup a backup server using Ubuntu server 10.4 x64.

I'm currently attempting to get the server to connect to windows vista and windows 7 shares on the network.

When running the command

Code:
smbclient \\hazard-pc\test

a prompt for a password appears, I enter nothing and am then presented with. I am not using passwords on the windows shares.

Code:
smb: >

If I attempt to list the directory using ls then I get the following error:

Code:
smb: > ls
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED listing *
57138 blocks of size 1048576. 32044 blocks available
smb: >

I've looked on google and on here and have not been able to find anything that works. I also don't have any xp machines to test with either.

I discovered this issue whilst trying to configure the backuppc service using smb.

Ubuntu Servers :: 10.04 Samba PDC And Win7

Jul 23, 2010

I'm having problems with Ubuntu 10.04 samba PDC and windows7. I have a test network that I'm using to evauate 10.04 before I use it in production and have come across an intriguing problem with Windows 7. I have a clean brand-new installed Windows 7 ultimate and I have no problems joining the domain. (Standard registry modifications made). I can logon the window 7 box locally without a problem however when I try to logon using the domain the Windows 7 box accepts my password and start to load the user profile, at the point where the desktop would appear message is displayed to say "logging off" and returns me to logon screen.

What I have done to date: --
wiped Windows 7 box and reinstalled
Wiped user profiles both local and on PDC (including all user information)
Performed a complete uninstall of Samba (including TDB's) and
reinstalled a fresh copy of Samba and manually edited the smb.conf is a minimum basic PDC
I have no problems with Windows XP (SP3) box at any stage

Ubuntu Servers :: Win7 Needs Permission To Copy To Smb Share?

Oct 5, 2010

I setup ubuntu 10.04.1 server on a computer I'm using as a server for my home. I can view the share folder on server from win7 I can read files but cannot right to the share. However from Xubuntu I was able to read and write no problem. So the question is... why can't windows 7 read and right like xubuntu? I have 2 win7 machines and both were denied writing to the share folder... I'm by no means an expert.. I setup the share using ubuntu server guide pdf... not sure if its done correctly maybe someone here knows off hand what kind of permissions would be causing this.

Ubuntu Servers :: Write Acces In Win7 Folder Via Samba?

Nov 22, 2010

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this but I run ubuntu 10.04 server in virtualbox, and have samba running. I can see the files and read them in win7, but I want write access aswell!

I need to do this in terminal only, and Im not that well versed in Linux or the terminal. Anyways here is my smb.conf:

[global]
security = share
workgroup = myworkgroupname
load printers = no

[Code]...

Since "read only = no" I think i should have write permissions... and since I can read the files Im guessing the smb.conf is the problem?

Ubuntu Servers :: Can No Longer Connect From Irc Client

Mar 12, 2010

I'm trying to set up a private irc server. I install ircd-ircu, modify the configuration file, restart the daemon, and everything works great. After the next server reboot, the server shows the daemon is running, but I can no longer connect to the server from my irc client. I've tried restarting the daemon with no luck. I can then uninstall and reinstall it with the same outcome. Everything works initially, but after rebooting, the irc client can't connect..

Fedora Servers :: Access Samba Share By Hostname From Win7

Mar 13, 2011

Running samba-3.5.6-71.fc14.x86_64. Why cant I access samba share by short-hostname from win7. When I ping short-hostname, the answer is the actual ip and short-hostname.mydomain.com

sa pinging short-hostname does work, but accessing it from start-run does not! Accessing by ip or short-hostname.mydomain.com works fine. ssh by short-hostname from win7 works fine too.

Ubuntu Servers :: No Longer Access Interface - Get Shutdown

Apr 12, 2011

2011-04-11 11:57:03 UTC I don't know what happening with my centralized log-server running octopussy. Currently it is working in a vmware setup with approx 980 Mb ram and is set in bridge mode. Currently is it set to receive logs from logs devices which are 4 in number one of which includes the core isg-1000 device. This setup is still in its test form....now what happens after some time (sometimes it taken days and sometimes just hours) when the connection (https) is suddenly lost to the apache and i can no longer access the interface. What happens more strangely my Ethernet interface gets shutdown on ubuntu. I have to restart the services by issuing /etc/init.d/networking restart.

Even at times it itself start receiving network packets on its own; without even restarting; i don't what the hell is wrong with the server. I cannot understand its erratic behavior. I need a sound and reliable Ethernet connectivity at all times because coz of loss of connectivity in my case would mean loss of logging functionality. I dnt want any time-gap in logging ...as im currently logging some highly critical devices on this server.

Ubuntu Installation :: Installed Alongside Win7 But GRUB Doesn't Appear; Just Boots Win7

Ubuntu Installation :: Win7 Bootloader Is Broken / Doesn't Seem To Detect The Win7?

May 2, 2011

I had vista installed, then I installed Win7 on a dif. partition. Then I installed Ubuntu 11.4 over the vista partition (formatted first), and now I can't get into Win7. I'm really at a loss. I've tried the Win7 disk, and it doesn't detect the Win7 installation. I've also tried sudo update-grub, and it doesn't seem to detect the win7 install either. I've tried making the Win7 partition bootable using gpart as well. I'd like to dual boot Win7 and Ubuntu, however I need to do that.

Fedora Servers :: Yum Is No Longer Working In 3

Apr 23, 2009

I am running a Fedora 3 that I had installed from a slightly outdated disk. and I have been making updates by using YUM. But I have a policy of only updating just what is needed and leaving the rest alone. This was fine until some time (I think is was) last year, when our friends at fedora had discontinued support for Fedora 3 and then unwisely deleted all the packages for fedora 3 and fedora 4 off there server. Now it has been a struggle just administer updates when application that I am adding become unhappy with the version that come off of the disk, and I end up with versions that are more current then I wanted. All I wanted is to have access to the packages that were left when the music stopped.

Hear is my current pediment. I now need to run PHP (something I never used until now) and version that came with the disk (ver 4.3.9) is too low for the scripts that I will be running. They need PHP 5. Now I know that were up to something like PHP 5.3.x. But I don't really need that. I am shore there is a version of PHP 5, like versions 5.1, that was available though YUM. If they only just left it there. At least Microsoft leaves all of there window 98 updates on there server for people to use, even though they don't support windows 98 any more.

The biggest reason I want to use YUM or even up2date for my installs and updates, is they minimized the risk of screwing something up.

Here is my question. Dos, anyone know where there is a mirror of fedora 3 updates that fedora used to have on there site?

I am hopping to be able to adjust the baseurl= line in the fedora.repo file to point it to this new mirror and make YUM work like NEW.

Fedora Servers :: Cannot Connect Win7 And Mac0S 10.6 Computers To Samba Share

Jan 3, 2010

I just recently constructed a computer to create a nice Fedora Linux server to replace a Mac Mini server that I have been using for a few years. I'm attempting to create a Samba share for my machines, a Windoze 7 machine as well as a couple MacOS 10.6 machines. I've set up Samba, started the service, allowed Samba in the firewall, and used system-config-samba to set up a share with a user. I created a User called "space", and a share /media/peliculas/Movies (a mounted hard drive). When I type in \IP_ADDRESS in the address bar in windows 7, I get the option to log in. I log in correctly and I see two directories "space" and "Movies." Unfortunately when I click on one of them I get the following error message:

Windows cannot access \IP_ADDRESSMovies Check the spelling of the name. Otherwize, there might be a problem with your network. To try and identify and resolve network problems, click Diagnose. I also get something similar when I attempt to connect with my mac machine. Using "Connect to Server" I type in: smb:\IP_ADDRESS, and login, I have the option to mount "Movies" or "space." If I select any of these, I get the following error message: There was an error connecting to the server "IP_ADDRESS." Check the server name or IP addres, and then try again. If you are unable to resolve the problem contact your system administrator.

Also, if I type 'smbclient -U space -L IP_ADDRESS' I can see the "Movies" in the "Sharename." At this point I'm not sure what else to do, and have been trying to figure this out for the last few days (losing sleep due to being baffled). The only thing that I can think of is that I have something wrong with the smb.conf file. Here is what it currently displays:

Global Settings

workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba Server Version %v
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50

[code].....

One last thing, when I check the log files, there are error messages that state: smbd/service.c:1009(make_connection_snum) '/home/space' does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [peliculas] Error was Permission denied --Windoze 7 and MacOS 10.6 log files

Ubuntu Servers :: Apache No Longer Starting Unattended After Reboot?

Nov 18, 2010

I have an Ubuntu 10.04.1 AMD64 server running Apache with SSL. In the past, even though I have a passphrase on my key file, I have only needed it if I manually restarted Apache2, never after reboot.

I recently switched from a self-signed cert to one from a CA. I'm not sure if this is what caused it, I also installed a few packages (AWStats, PHPSysInfo and Munin) that all interact with the webserver.

Anyway, I just noticed that now after a reboot Apache starts but doesn't work. I need to kill that process and start a new one with the passphrase (maybe on the console it is prompting me, I mainly use SSH access since the server is headless).

Why did Ubuntu used to 'remember' the passphrase on the self-signed cert but now I need to provide it?

My sever auto-updates so it would be annoying to have this thing go down regularly after a patch that requires a reboot.

Ubuntu Servers :: Sudo No Longer Prompting For Password / Resolve This?

I am suddenly not prompted for my password when I run any command as sudo on a few of my Ubuntu servers.

if I run sudo -K, the session is cleared, and I am prompted again for my password, however it saves/caches it until I run sudo -k again even if I log out and back in. I want it to prompt me for my password, as it should (and did) by default, for security.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Networking :: After Upgrading From Win7-32 To WIN7-64 Can't Mount Cifs Shares

Jul 21, 2010

This is the first time I have run into issues mounting windows shares but I really can't figure this out. Can someone put me out of my windows misery please.

First off, last week I rebuilt my work PC fromWIN7 32bit to WIN7 64bit since then I can no longer mount the window share on my ubuntu server:

I recreated my windows share called "Linux" and used the properties, advanced sharing and added everyone, full access and my domain account full access.

If I browse to \ipaddress I can see my share and access it. From a XP machine I can see the share and access it.

From linux I use the same mount point as before, /linux I use the same fstab and it fails

Code:

I try this manually now:

Code:

Next I try to mount it:


Code:

I looked at my firewall rules and they seem ok.

Next test was connecting to my 2nd pc on windows XP no probs mounted first time.

What is wrong with my new Win 7 setup?

Ubuntu Servers :: Management Tool For Multiple Server Instances - Webmin No Longer Supported

Jun 20, 2010

i started to look into upgrading my LTS ubuntu server instances to Lucid. one the notable things that i have discovered is the lack of support for Webmin; it seems that Debian is no longer supporting packages required by Webmin. But it also appears that ubuntu team believes that Webmin may actually cause problems as it works in a different way than that presumed by Ubuntu. so i am now left with no way to manage my 10+ instances of ubuntu server that i used for studying and research. it seems that i am left with cluster-ssh as an alternative. but are there other alternatives, ideally similar to webmin?
