Ubuntu :: How To Setup NFS Server And Client
Aug 1, 2011
I am using VMware player running Ubuntu10.04. I have setup a NFS server machine and a client machine. On my NFS server,
eth0 inet address:192.168.126.129
eth1 inet address: 192.168.255.129
On my client,
eth0 inet address:192.168.126.130
eth1 inet addess:192.168.255.128
Am I right to say, from the server machine, if I ping 192.168.126.130, I am calling the client machine? NFS server ip address is 192.168.126.129? and what about 192.168.255.129? and 192.168.255.128?

I have a small home-office network. On that network I have two linux computers, one is a client the other a server.
On the server I have NFS Server setup and mount some NFS exports on the client computer.
On the server I have the firewall on and here it becomes a little tricky.
Since both the server and the client connect to the router the interface (eth1) is theoretically both an internal & external zone.
The router is commercial grade and therefore has a good firewall on it which is also setup. Therefore the firewall on the server is really more of a backup than a necessity. But that's fine, and by having the server's firewall on 'fail2ban' is able to work which I like to have working so I don't want to just turn off the server firewall even though I have good security from the router.
However, when I turn on the server's firewall, the client computer cannot see the NFS server when scanning for server -- done by: clicking on "Choose" next to "NFS Server Hostname" when adding an NFS share in the NFS Client in YaST. Clearly something is being blocked even though I have both "NFS Client" and "NFS Server Service" allowed in the server firewall. The Firewall config. files for these are below.
The Firewall configuration is pretty much "out of the box". That is I have the services I need opened up for the external zone, the other zones are left at their default which means the internal zone, although not used (i.e.: attached to any interface), is completely open.
The perfect solution I guess would be to setup my client computer to connect through a different NIC (perhaps eth0), make that the "Internal Zone" and therefore allow all traffic through to it while still blocking the server from the external zone. However, I cannot make that physical change to my network for now so I am looking for an in between (non-perfect) solution.
In this case I am guessing that means opening up extra NFS ports to the external zone so I have full NFS functionality. I don't mind this because like I said, the router firewall is the main line of defense anyway.
So, given all of the above could someone tell me what I would need to additionally open up in the server firewall to make the NFS server detection work on the client while the firewall was on. Or, if you have a cleverer/better solution without me changing my physical network that would be great.
Hopefully I have written this in enough detail and clearly enough so that all the parameters are clear but if not, feel free to ask me what you like and I'll try to make it clear.
Code:
## Description: Firewall Configuration for NFS kernel server.
#
# Only the variables TCP, UDP, RPC, IP and BROADCAST are allowed.
# More may be supported in the future.

I currently have a debian lenny high performance cluster running seamlessly using dhcp and tftpd-hpa. All nodes are completely diskless, and i would like to keep it that way. I now would like to have a client boot over local into a full KDE desktop.
Here's the cache.
1. I would like the client to also be a node. I would like it to handle processing as the other nodes do, but this one with a full desktop, with ALL data and privileges accessible.
2. The client will have its own workstation graphics. It will need to have that driver loaded without slowing the system.
3. Client will need to be able to use its own usb, bd-rom, dvd, audio, etc. even though it will be booting into the HPC.
4. Wireless. I cannot run 70 ft of lan across an apartment. not happening.
The idea is a media center applicable "powerhouse" with high-end power and graphics for easy media editing, 3d creation, and gaming. Will also be used for webcache over all local, file sharing, and other server applications.
HPC specs:
-headnode: hp compaq p4-ht 3.2 ghz, 4x500gb, 4gb mem, gigabit ethernet, wireless-N
-nodes: 4x p4-ht 2.2 ghz, 2gb mem, no-name brand slim desktops; 2x panasonic toughbooks p4-mobile 1.8 ghz, 1.5gb mem; 3x gateway p3 unknown specs; and 1 hp 530 notebook 1.6ghz core2 duo, 1.5gb mem
-client: hp compaq core2 duo 2.13 ghz, 4gb mem, wireless n, bd-rom, 2x dvd-rom, usb 3.0 card, bluetooth, 1gb AGP nvidia geforce 6800 dual-dvi, no hd.
I need to know how to set up this PXE.

I was trying to setup SSL Client authentication on only one virtual host. Here is a brief excerpt sample of my conf file for the virtual host:
<VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx:443>
SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_O} eq "something"
SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth 2
</VirtualHost>
But when I try to check for syntax errors tells me SSLRequire not allowed here I do not want to add SSLRequire on the main httpd.conf because I only want it for one virtual host. The rest of the virtual hosts do not need it.

I have an opensuse 11.3 install which I want to set up as a network boot server to install Solaris 10 on a Sun Ultra 10 client. According to what I've read, this requires rarpd and tftpd which I've set up on opensuse, but also bootparamd which I can't find for 11.3. It seems it was last included with opensuse 9.2. Does anyone know if it's available, if I could use the suse 9.2 version, or any alternative?

I've had someone approach me recently about setting up an Ubuntu server for his small business. Having never done this for a paying client before, I have absolutely no idea where to begin as far as pricing goes. Here are some of the things I've been asked to put together:
Install and configure Ubuntu Server 11.04 with:
- Apache (LAMP)
- Samba
- SSH
- Subversion
- Webmin
As well as configuring mdadm RAID and setting the system up for multi-user access. For an experienced Linux user like myself, I don't believe that it will take me very long to get things up and running, but again, I have no idea where to even begin as far as pricing goes. Keep in mind that this client is a small business owner of a game development company with only 5 employees. I am told that he only has a "modest" budget to work with. Additionally, it is possible that I will be hired in to this company shortly, to help with game development and to maintain this system which I am setting up. I would like to use this opportunity to make money, of course, but I also want to be reasonable with the client so that I may be hired in to his company in the coming months for a programming job.

I am trying to build a file server with RAID 5 over a couple of 1TB HDDs, to serve about 10 client machines using Ubuntu Server. I already own a 22-port switch: HP ProCurve v1810G-24 Switch (J9450A), which I am assuming will do the job. And for the actual server I am thinking of buying: HP ProLiant DL120 1U. Will this hardware suffice, or am I missing something important to get the whole thing running?

I am trying to setup a web-based secure ftp client that can handle not only file transfers to and from one of my company's servers, but also allow new clients of ours to visit our site, create an account of their own and use it to log in and begin transferring files. This way, the users can manage their own accounts.
I don't know a lot about exactly what is running on our server, though I am almost positive it is debian based. I really only have access via ssh and ftp. I may be able to do more in the server room, but haven't tried. I thought about using net2ftp, but that doesn't seem to work with sftp, and also doesn't allow the creation of new users on the server.
Is there anything out there for me??You will undoubtedly require more information from me, so please let me know what it is and where I can find it and I'll get back to you as quickly as I can.

I'm looking for some information on setting up a VPN client through Networkmanager in Gnome. My company uses a Sonicwall VPN server, and I'm having trouble getting my F11 laptop to connect. I've tried OpenS/WAN with no luck, and stumbled across Networkmanager's VPN setup. I can choose Cisco Compatible VPN (vpnc) which says it's compatible with Sonicwall IPSec-based VPNs. Is there a how-to I can check out, or has someone else got this setup to work?

I decided to use my old computer for torrent downloads and perhaps for mirroring the slack -current. However, the computer is rather weak: Celeron 1,2Ghz, 256 MB RAM. So, which slack release is better to use? I aim to use the jfs file system, but I'm not sure it is good choice.
