i am trying to assign a Static IP address and for the life of my i cannot get it to work Can someone explain to me the easiest way to do it and if i restart the server it won't get lost either.
I was trying to assign the static IP address of my internet connection to my home server and managed to make a mess of it. I've configured the router to assign it the address every time but when I rebooted everything the server is cut off from the network completely (rather unfortunate with a headless server...). The only file I've edited on the server when trying to do this is /etc/network/interfaces, everything else network related is default. My intention in editing the file was to make the server accept the IP address assigned by the router since the router was already configured to assign the right one. I put in
Code: inet dhcp in the /etc/network/interfaces file, is that wrong? What is that line supposed to be?
I have installed a ssh server on a computer (Ubuntu 10.04). This computer will be reboot many times, so the IP address is going to change. As a result, I couldn't connect with an other computer on this server via ssh. That's why I search a solution: either I assign a static IP on my server computer or I heard that I could use a dns name. I don't know if the latter solution is good so I hope to have some precisions. Also, I tried to have a static IP by editing the file : /etc/network/interfaces but it doesn't work.
Using Ubuntu Server maverick here - after altering /etc/network/interfaces to use a static ip and checking /etc/resolv.conf (no alteration needed) no network services were working at all. Here are the contents of interfaces:
Code: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.0 gateway 192.168.1.254
I was fairly certain that this was verbatim from my previous server which is no longer attached to the network. After hours of fooling around with no success I changed the address to 192.168.1.99 and it worked perfectly. So my question is: why? My old server used 100. Could the router refuse to give a new server the same address or something like that since that address had been taken in the past?
Version 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
How would you assign a server a public static IP ?
Ok.. I guess to better ask my question... how to assign server public static IP centos? Like for example I am in the router itself.. where would I go to point ip 44.33.33.21. to ?> 192.168.1.4
I got this message on Friday from just one domain. uote:mailsrv.forthnet.gr #<mailsrv.forthnet.gr #5.5.0 smtp; 554 5.5.0 Your message was considered to be spam by the FORTHnet Antispamming Policy and was not delivered to the recipient. The following spam tests returned positive for this message:FORGED_RCVD_HELO,RCVD_IN_BRBL. For further information visitWe are not a spamming community but it seems we have a statice IP address that has a Reverse lookup to "myipaddress.static.lyse.net" and not my email domain. Would setting a cname mail.mydomain.no -> myipaddress.static.lyse.net cure this problem or are there more tricks to be performedOnce I have cured the FORGED_RCVD_HELO I can move to getting the IP removed from BARACUDA.
How do I assign IPv4 and IPv6 static addresses permanently in OpenSUSE 11.2? Currently I am only able to assign either IPv4 or IPv6 static address not both. I cannot find even the interfaces file(/etc/sysconfig/network/interfaces).
I am a certified newbie into linux. I am using now ubuntu 9.04. Now here is my question. Is it possible to assign your own IP address on your ubuntu desktop, I mean a fixed IP address? Because everytime I start my computer, my internet service provider will automatically assigned a NEW IP address to my computer, but when I'm on windows the ip address is fixed.
I've installed and configured lampp and joomla. I am trying to learn how to use the joomla under ubuntu using only my computer as my local host. But when I restart my computer, the IP Address that is assigned is different to what I used when I installed joomla so I cant access my website even if I am using the same computer when I installed it. Is it possible to assign a fixed IP Address to my computer under ubuntu.
I have set up a cloud (Ubuntu) environment in my test lad and it's working fine I am confused setting up the public IP in the production environment. The cloud instance will get only a Internal IP address ( Private) we cannot bind the Public Ip to the cloud instance as it uses Elastic IP, so I am confused how can I set up this if I have about 250 Public Ip to 250 cloud instance. How will I map this 250 Public IP with the 250 internal IPs is there any hardware device.
my Apache2 was running fine for a while. Bur yeserday when I tried to start it again after a couple of weeks of vacation, I got the message:
* Starting web server apache2 [Sat Mar 20 10:48:12 2010] [warn] The Alias directive in /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf at line 3 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier Alias.
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, and I want DHCP to assign an IP address automatically. I can ping my router, and get a reply. I just have no idea how to do this.I'm trying to get my Ubuntu machine onto my Windows network.
Just Installed Fedora 10 on Dell PowerEdge 2950. Installation went fine. Problem is I cannot Assign a Ip address to eth0. Service "NetworkManager " dies on its own "ifconfig eth0 192168.0.8/24" works though.
Every time I upgrade my system I run a post install script. This script made some harm to the network start that prevents sshd from starting, but I was unable to detect the problem. In my boot.log I found this:
[...] Starting NetworkManager daemon: [ OK ] Starting Avahi daemon... Jun 2 14:58:48 Antares kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
[code]...
So there is a "bind to port 22 failed" probably caused by "eth0: link is not ready", but after the sshd init script fails the eth0 is ready...
I recently just upgraded from humble Linux user to confused Linux admin of my own virtual Linux server. When I issue the ifconfig command I get following output.
Code:
venet0:0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 inet addr:1.2.3.4 P-t-P:1.2.3.4 Bcast:1.2.3.4 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP BROADCAST POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
The WAN IP of the interface is not really 1.2.3.4 I just changed that IP for security reasons.What I am trying to figure out, is it possible to assign a private IP address to the same interface or can I only have one IP address per interface. I understand I have a mask of /32 so I am not going to be able to subnet the address to create any more addresses, so I assume I am stuck with the WAN IP (public IP) that I have, and just need to deal with it.
The reason I ask this is because I have been reading through several DNS/BIND tutorials/walk-throughs, and a lot of them specify setting up a intranet access with 192.168.1.1 address for the local DNS server, but since I am connecting to the sever via SSH I figure I do not need a private IP address.
In my red hat Linux machine there was a Lan card using eth0. IP is asign to that network card and it is functioning properly. I add another ethernet card in my linux machineit was detacted and when i use the commandQuote:[root@localhost root] # ifconfig -ait show me both eth0 and eth1 lan cards.I can see Ip address in my eth1 ethernet card but When I enter into
Code: [root@localhost root] # cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and i use ls command it only show me the file ifcfg-eth1 and with
I am using internet in my home PC using Red Hat 9. To assign static IP to my linux machine I use "System Settings....> Network" and then double click on "eth0" to assign the static IP.Well these all settings by using GUI interface.Kindly guide me that if I use only command line interface "runlevel 1" then in that case which file should i edit and assign my static IP,Subnet Mask,Default Gateway DNS settings.2- 2nd thing is,is there any way that I may open web broswer in command line? or the administrator should only use internet on Run Level 5 ?
My server is Linux (centos 5.3). In Server System Dhcp server is running, so it assign ip address to client windows ..... 1. I want to assign ip address to Printer (printer Hp laser 3055 ) 2. How do I configure cups (Network Printer) in linux server 3. How to configure printer in windows client.... How to do this.
I want to assign an address location to a pointer and wanted to display the value at that memory location.I wrote a small program for this and it is like this : (i am using gcc 4.4 compiler)
# include "stdio.h" int main() { unsigned int *a; a=(unsigned int *)0x3f8; printf("%u",*a); return 0; }
I have an Ubuntu 10.04 server/router with IPv6 internet connectivity (I have an internet routable /64 subnet). Since I have this abundance of IPv6 addresses I wanted to try and assign v6 addresses to specific users on the local system. I've been looking at ip6tables with packet mangling but I don't seem to be able to find out how to do this or if this is even possible.
Current configuration: eth0: Local network, has the /64 IPv6 public range active and the IPv4 LAN range. tun0: 6in4 tunnel with a ISP assigned public v6 address. eth1: Standard IPv4 internet connection.
All users on my system use the v6 address configured on tun0. I want to force them to use the /64 range which is configured on eth0. If I can force users to use a specific v6 address, I'll configure more then one v6 address on this interface based on the users userID on the system.
I noticed that my internet connection wasn't automatically brought up each time I logged into Fedora so I opened the system-config-network tool and edited my network adapter by checking the box marked "automatically start at boot/login." To my surprise, the connection went down and upon trying to click on the device to let the manager bring up the connection the greyed-out phrase "device not managed" appeared underneath the device name and wouldn't allow me to connect.
Even when I used ifconfig/dhclient to get the connection up nothing happened. I could get the router to assign an IP address through DHCP, pinged a few sites to make sure it was legit, but still couldn't use firefox to browse anything. Seems as if network manager GUI is conflicting with command line attempts to bring the network up. I'd like to permanently disable system-config-network if possible because it's acting screwy!
I want to setup 1Gbps our lab network and we purchased 'Buffulo Giga layer switch ' with 24ports. Is there a way to tell DHCP to assign specific IP to a particular MAC address of a machine ? We want to use DHCP and whatever the port we use ,it should have same IP ..
