Ubuntu :: How To Setup Ssh Server In Virtualbox

Feb 25, 2011

I wanted to setup an ssh server on my computer that I, along with some other people I know, could access from outside my home network. I didn't want to give others access to my computer (even if that access was limited), so I wanted to setup the server within a Virtualbox virtual machine.

STEP 1: Create the virtual machine.Create a vm with the distro of your choice. I won't explain how to do that here since there are TONS of guides online about how to do this.

STEP 2: Configure the host to send info to the vm.I found an article that explains why you have to do this and how to do it:URL...I can summarize the article by saying that the vm is hidden from other network computers by the host computer. Therefore, you have to configure the host to send information received on a particular port (any port you choose greater than or equal to 1024 as explained in the above link) to port 22 of the vm (port 22 is the default port for ssh).

Debian :: 6.0.2.1 Virtualbox Setup - No Internet Connectivity By Default?

Jul 9, 2011

I'm coming from CentOS background and it's first time using Debian and currently stuck with setting up a working Virtualbox Debian Guest installation

Problem 1: no internet connectivity by default, but internet works fine from within the virtualbox Debian Guest OS if i use debian's internet browser

Problem 2: only internal 10.0.2.15 ip works (NAT) while my 2nd host only adaptor doesn't work out of the box

With CentOS all i needed to do it get it all working was when creating new guest on Virtualbox is setup 2 NICs, first one is NAT and second one is host-only adaptor. After installation, i can connect to internet and also from host OS connect to guest CentOS via 192.168.56.101 ip. But with Debian 6.0.2.1 64bit i defined both NAT and host-only adaptors, and out the box, only 10.0.2.15 is defined.

Default /etc/network/interfaces
root@debian1:/etc/network# cat interfacesbackup.txt
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system

Slackware :: Setup Vsftd On Virtualbox Slack Guest?

Jun 19, 2011

I installed slackware 13.37 32 bit in a virtualbox vm for httpd web site testing. I am running the guest in slackware 13.37 64bit host with host only networking.

I am trying to set up samba in my CentOS virtual machine that is running on a Windows 7 host. I have found a tutorial in the How-Tos on this site but I'm not sure if they are exact and I'm paranoid about messing something up. The link to the tutorial is below. Is there anything that I should do different or anything that I should be aware of? Also, once this is set up, how do I transfer files between the two machines? Please note: I am very inexperienced in the IT field. [URL]...

I used to run Gentoo in 2000 and knew my commands, but now that the world of linux has progressed a bit further, aren't there many new commands to learn? Do you know a list of linux shell commands that are in broad use now and which didn't exist 10 years ago?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: No Logout System Sound Since Years?

Apr 20, 2010

Since I can remember, Logout sound never plays in Ubuntu, or maybe the problem is Compiz + Gnome. A very similar problem occurs in KDE (Kubuntu), but here the problem is No Login sound.

Gnome + Compiz: Good Login sound, No Logout sound.
KDE: No Login Sound, good Logout sound.

So, what is the problem with Login/Logout sounds in Linux now? I have used the last 4 Ubuntu releases, and Logout sound never plays in Ubuntu(gnome).How could a fix that?

Ubuntu Installation :: Kubuntu LTS Software Upgraded Over The 3 Years?

Apr 25, 2010

Is it still true that if I install the LTS version of Kubuntu that I'll be stuck with the versions of software that it comes with? Or, will the versions of the software it comes with be updated during the three years it's good for?

Can I convert my present install of Kubuntu 9.10 to Kubuntu 9.10 LTS by installing Synaptic and clicking on Settings>Updates>Long>term>support>releases>only? I'd prefer using the 10.04 LTS version but not if I'll be stuck with software I can't upgrade.

General :: Windows OS User For At Least 18 Years?

Aug 4, 2010

I have tried using Linux several times but to be truthful it just seemed to be so complicated when compared to windows OS's That it just never really appealed. The one thing That really annoys me about Linux is that Widows makes it so easy to connect to the internet and even if you run into a problem nearly every Provider offers support for Win users.

My provider BigPond (Australia) Solves all Win OS problems with just a simple phone call, but when I say LInux " Sorry We don't support that system." is the reply. So! My cable modem is supplied by BigPond but when I try to log in using Ubuntu 10.4 : Nothing works. Linux just can't recognise the hardware and no one seems to be able to tell me how you you link Ubuntu to your normal Internet hardware.

Why is it so difficult for Linux users to do what is just a breeze for Windows users. Until Linux can match Microsoft in user friendly competition, it will always run a dismal Last to Windows in any form and Win 7 is just such an easy to use service. So is there anyone out there who can tell me how I get Ubuntu to recognize my Modem and at least get me started?

Slackware :: Install Module Em28xx In A 12.0 Installation That Has Been Operating For Several Years?

Apr 2, 2010

I've been trying to install module em28xx in a Slackware 12.0 installation that has been operating for several years. This is the em28xx that is part of the Slackware 12.0 distribution itself (kernel 2.6.21.5).

Unfortunately, although em28xx is fine, modprobe has a problem with dependent module i2c-core, which is generating an "Invalid module format" message. The system is using the generic Slackware 12.0 kernel, not the huge kernel.

OpenSUSE :: VirtualBox Keeps Failing Even Though Ran "/init.d/vboxdrv Setup"?

Sep 4, 2010

I keep getting the error below even though I:

1. Added myself to vboxusers
2. Installed dkms
3. Ran the "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" command.

When I run "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" it gives me the error: modprobe vboxdrv failed. use 'dmesg' to find out why

Code:
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. One other thing, I looked in the file system and there is no "/dev/vboxdrv". Is this correct?

Ubuntu Servers :: Setup New Remote Office - Setup Domain Trust Between Two Sites?

I ended up setting up a basic linux file server as a pdc for that office. Our main office is a windows 2000 ads domain. The two offices are connected with a vpn. I only have two users at the new location so I simply have the linux and samba usernames/passwords setup manually. I would like to know if it is possible to setup a domain trust between the two sites so I don't have to create a username/password in the remote site for every user at the main office to access. I did some searching but came up empty.

General :: Ubuntu 10.04 - Cannot Setup GRUB On RAID 0 Setup Disks

Jun 4, 2010

I've been all afternoon trying to install Ubuntu Lucid on my fakeRAID 0 configured (2) HDDs and am unable to set GRUB up. The fake RAID setup is provided by Intel Matrix Storage Manager, it is correctly enabled and the BIOS is also correctly set up -- in fact, I've managed to install Windows 7 with no significant hitch. After struggling with partioning the drives (had to follow advice I found on a very helpful guide online [0]), creating the filesystems AND getting Ubuntu's installer to actually do what it is supposed to do, I now cannot seem to set GRUB up. My system, as it stands, is unbootable at all; via live CD only.

This is how the RAID0 dev is partitioned:
Code:
# fdisk -l /dev/mapper/isw_ecdeiihbfi_Volume0
Disk /dev/mapper/isw_ecdeiihbfi_Volume0: 1000.2 GB, 1000210694144 bytes

Ubuntu :: Setup Workflow To A Terminal-based Setup

Im trying to set up my workflow to a terminal-based setup, so that accessing my computer through SSH will provide many of the things I need and use right off the bat. I have Mutt working great with my GMail account, so that's good. I do have a question though. Using the application Calcurse (featured on Lifehacker a few days ago, [URL] I am at a loss to figure out how to interface with Google Calendar. Is there a trick that Im missing, or does anyone know of another terminal app that plays better with Google Calendar?

Also, I was looking for a 'Digital Clock', essentially, again, a terminal/text based large print clock; similar to the one in the lower left corner on the attached pic. I was looking for a telnet server from the Atomic Clock, but no such luck so far.....
