I am planning to make my own server as a web host on the Internet not at the local area with the desktop 10.10 desktop edition with the domain name you know like the hosting providers hostgator or bluehost.

VM can ping host and Internet but host can't ping VM.
I set VM static IP 192.168.0.205.
It turns out dynamic IP - 192.168.0.55
On host:
The short form of my question: Can I log into a remote host from a local host (on the same LAN) and get the full GUI desktop environment of the remote host?
Long form of question: I worked for years on Solaris hosts with the CDE environment. Our server hosts were in another physical location. My desktop machine was another Sun Solaris host which also ran CDE. At the CDE login screen, I could click a dropdown menu and tell it to login to one of the server hosts at the remote location. In my login script on the remote machine, I had "export DISPLAY=localhostname:0.0", where localhostname was the hostname of my desktop host. There was also some kind of security command that had to be in the login script to allow the windows to be sent to another host, but unfortunately, I cannot remember what that command is.
What I want to do is configure another host on my LAN, but without a mouse, keyboard, and display monitor. I would like to run the GUI desktop of the new host on my current main host, just like I did at work. Is this possible in Ubuntu with Gnome?
OpenSuse 11.4 Asus Netbook 1000H Following other members in the forums I have installed Opensuse 11.4 on the Netbook. In the early days Ubuntu Netbook Remix worked well for me. But this has been discarded, and the "one size fits all" Ubuntu had become slow and cumbersome. So..... onto my post. Opensuse is working well. The install went beautifully.
It detected the Wireless Internet and I am able to get on line. I also need to share the Internet connection to a desktop. This is done via a small network switch. Thus far I cannot do this. I tried to use ifup to configure a static ip but this busted my Wireless configuration. I went back to knetwork manager. Then I tried to set up the wired network using knetwork manager and under IPV4 "share" the connection. But this blanks out any possiblity of a static address and substitutes dhcp. My desktop cannot ping the this dhcp address. Ubuntu had this thing called Firestarter? - from memory. This configured the system to sharing the network.

My host OS looses its connection with internet for 10-15 seconds and then it comes back on. Probably something goes wrong with default gateway, as it looses only external network (I still can reach it on my internal network). I've googled a lot, but cant find anything about that. I use bridged network.
I'm trying to setup my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop to host a small website that I can practice and learn stuff with and I'm a little stuck at the minute.
I have got Apache2 and the LAMP stack installed okay, along with phpMyAdmin and can give my external IP to anyone with the http:// and anyone can view my website that way but what I want to do is have my IP resolve into a domain name like ooloo-website.net but I don't know how to do this.
Is there any way that I can do this like register my IP to a free DNS and domain website without buying a domain or using one of those free ones like ooloo.webhost.net or do I need to host everything myself like DNS and the domain? Can I even do all of this myself?

I know how to install LAMP but as I have root I need to learn a little more than I did when I was on a shared host.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have succeeded in using Remote Desktop Viewer to make a VNC connection to a remote WAN computer and it was quick enough to manipulate the remote computer in real time.I found the host name by getting the remote target computer to put the following url into a browser - http://www.showmyip.com/ - It returned the address for the router which I put into the Host: text entry box in the Remote Desktop Viewer window. E.g. for my computer at the time of submitting my enquiry the address was 'host81-129-54-226.range81-129.btcentralplus.com'.The remote router that I connected to needed to have the port 5900 forwarded to the remote target computer.I now want to progress to running VNC through a SSH tunnel for additional security. In the Remote Desktop Viewer there is a configuration line
'use host' <text box to enter host name> 'as a SSH tunnel'.What is the correct syntax to enter in the text box? It would help my understanding if you used the example address above as a basis for a response.Many unexpected connection attempts reported on my router, if that was you, thank you for the novel way in responding to the question and providing the syntax.The 'bible' on syntax appears to be found here:- http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?ssh+1
I have set up my guest OS in VirtualBox so that it has a static ip and is using a bridged adapter. As a result, I can see the webserver that's hosted in guest from my host OS's web browser. However, for some reason my current setup does not allow my guest to reach the internet. What settings do I need to enable both?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a WindowsXP virtual machine which I need to isolate from the host machine completely (have the host act as a bridge but not be visible on the IP layer at all.) It still needs to have Internet access. Obviously it has to be able to contact the router but I would like to be able to block port 80 (or even just block all SYN packets addressed to the router.) I also want to allow port forwarding from the router to the virtual machine. I can use basic iptables but this is way beyond me.
The host OS is probably going to be Debian Lenny but this is not built yet so if someone can recommend a different distro which is as lightweight as possible but will support VMWare, iptables and tcpdump then that would be great. I was thinking of Slackware but I have not used it in ages and from what I can remember their is no real package management.
1. I can connect to my slack 13 laptop via PuTTY on my GF's windows laptop. Can I actually copy things from my laptop to her machine using 'scp', or is PuTTY just used for browsing my linux filesystem on a windows machine? Google has been telling me about some software called 'WinSCP', which can copy files over, but I was just wandering if i can do this anyway using PuTTY?
2. The first time i did connect to my laptop from my GF's laptop (and also my ubuntu desktop) I get the warning about the host key is not cached in client machine("the server's rsa2 key fingerprint is: ssh-rsa XXXX xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx: etc etc). I understand why this happens, but I have no idea where to find this value on my host laptop. I can find the actual key, but not the fingerprint (i.e. the xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" etc). i blindly typed "yes" to get SSH working?
3. When i connect from the internet (rather than over my home network) will i need some kind of 'shell login account' to do this cuz i dont have a static IP. ie i'd like to do 'ssh tom@myAccount.com' rather than 'tom@123.432.32.23'? Where or how can i make this happen?
I am working on a cluster for a molecular dynamics class and I have to edit my FORTRAN code (only the newest and best for me!). In order to get through to the cluster I have to ssh in. The network on which the cluster resides is behind a firewall, so I have to ssh through the firewall into the network first.
this is fine, I can login and move files and folders as needed, including sftp-ing into host 1, then into the cluster so I can transfer files from cluster to host and then host to me. This gets rather tiresome, so it would be nice to edit the files in place.
The problem is that when I access my code with emacs it launches the emacs client on Host 1, with no mouse support. I know the purists will howl about how I should be using keyboard shortcuts, but I am a chemist and not a programmer, so the mouse is very nice for me. Is there any way I can perhaps mount the cluster using sshfs so that when I open my code it launches a local instance of emacs? Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I thought it was network related.
I have always been a mac user and a couple of days ago I decided try ubuntu. My first step into ubuntu was the installation of Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 LTS on an desktop computer. Everything went smooth until I tried to connect to internet and I wasn't able. The thing is that the network is working fine, because I'm connected to it from my mac and other windows users too. I already tried everything without success. I have two dlink routers connected via cable, and only one has DHCP enabled. I'm trying to connect to the one that has the DHCP disabled via cable. I already try static ip configuration. I really would like to install ubuntu on both computers the desktop one and my mac, but I need to solve the internet issue first.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to use my desktop from work over VNC but it won't let me connect. In the Remote Desktop Preferences I have "Allow other users to view your desktop" checked and I also have "Allow other users to control your desktop" checked. But it says below that "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.1.10 or brownserver.local."
Under the Security section I have "Require user to enter this password" checked and I've filled in a password for it.
I've also port forwarded port 5900 to my desktop on my router so that shouldn't be an issue either. When I attempt to connect over the internet from my laptop I get a message that says that the connection was refused. So I think my request is at least making it to the desktop, it's just that the desktop doesn't want to allow it.
One quick question though....I'm not sure, but I might have changed the default port on which VNC is listening on this machine. I don't remember if I did or not. And if I did, I don't remember how I did it. Could someone point me in the proper direction to see which port remote desktop is listening on?
a friend of mine who is currently living in a different country has just installed ubuntu on her computer and I am having a very frustrating time finding coherent/useful information about how to set up a remote desktop connection with her over the internet with. Right now I'm trying to set up a remote server on MY computer so that I know the process and can tell her what to do. Particularly annoying is the erratic behaviour of Ubuntu's default remote desktop function. The results are erratic, sometimes instructing me to connect to localhost, other times to my IP address, and usually informing me that I can only connect to this computer over the local network. At one point this summer i actually succeeded in getting a friend to connect over the internet to it, but that has not happened again. Why is it doing this?
I get the impression that VNC is the best method for connecting remote desktops, but I haven't had any luck with that either. I assume I must be doing something wrong setting the servers up: i just run vncpasswd to set the password and then vncserver. What else do I need to do? I couldn't find any simple or clear tutorials. Some places seemed to suggest I would have to configure the router if I have one (which I do), but I didn't have to do that in the summer. Although, it was a different router then.Do you need more information on anything? I can't think of anything right now, I'm very tired. If you can point me to any helpful tutorials then that would be great. I have a decent amount of experience with the command line in general, but I'm not very knowledgeable about networks.
I have linux installed on both my laptop and desktop pc. my desktop is not able to connect to the internet right now due to lack of internet lol.

View 3 Replies View RelatedToday I noticed my Desktop was being controlled remotely from over the Internet even though I had it set for 'local network only'. Foolishly I relied on this setting and hadn't specified a password or other security. The remote user had opened my Firefox passwords page and was perusing this when I pulled the plug.
All external checks confirmed that my router/firewall is actively blocking correctly. How could this happen? How can I prevent this in the future? I had recently install the Firefox extension for Weave Sync and wonder if that had anything to do with it?
