Ubuntu Networking :: Error - Cannot Connect To Server - You Must Enter A Name For The Server
Apr 17, 2011
In Gnome Places->Connect To Server dialog, I am having problem using the Custom Location Service Type. I enter in the URI as
Code:
smb://username:password@ipaddress/share_name
I get an pop up error message that says:
Quote:
Cannot Connect To Server. You must enter a name for the server.
Which would be fine if there was actually a place for me to enter the name which there is not. What am I doing wrong. This is the first time I have tried using the Connect To Server dialog. Normally I just use a script I wrote to mount my share in a folder on my local drive as some programs cannot access the mounted network folder. In a browser all I have to do is:
Code:
smb://ipaddress/share_name
I tried using Windows Shares, but that did not work either. It does work if I click on network and access the share that way, but some programs like firefox and a few others that I want to save a file to my network drive do not show the network unless the share is mounted in a folder. So, I wrote a script:
every time I try to connect to the ftp server I setup i am recieving this error Response:*** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/sbin/vsftpd terminated Error:Could not connect to server
I am merely trying to change the port for my ssh server.However it isn't changing.I edited my ssh_config file to:
Code:
# This is the ssh client system-wide configuration file. See # ssh_config(5) for more information. This file provides defaults for[code]...
When i try to connect to my server via port 443 i get a connection refused error. However when i try to connect via port 22 it connects. Since that didn't work, i tried restarting the entire server.To restate, i changed the config file and restarted ssh then the computer, however the port didn't change.Ohh and yes my router is set to port forwarding on port 443, though it doesn't matter since I'm inside the network.
I've tried /etc/init.d/mysql start, and it actually starts, or at least, it doesn't error out. But when I do pgrep mysql I get nothing, and when I try to login with mysql -p as root, I get
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
None of my other logins work, either, but since pgrep mysql didn't work, it's clear that MySQL just isn't running. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling mysql-server via apt-get, but I get the same thing. The logs in /var/log/syslog show this:
Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: #007/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server
I cannot use cvs within eclipse to connect to the server, but when I use cvs in terminal everything works fine.

I'm trying to set up a Linux server and I am new to this. I have gone through most of the configuration using SAMBA 3.0 and when I populate the ldap directory all I get this error before the password request:
Then when I perform an ldapsearch to see if the directory is populated I get this message:
I have openssh installed and it works great right out of the box. However, I don't want people accessing everything on my machine. My machine is behind NAT and ufw firewall. I have configured both so that port 22 is open. I've added the new users I want to have limited access and assigned them to group "sambashare" (just because its convenient.)
When the bottom bit of my config file "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" is set as shown below, everything works great:
Quote:
#Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server Subsystem sftp internal-sftp UsePAM yes Match Group sambashare
[code]...
Whenever I make the change to enable "ChrootDirectory" so that it limits the users access, I simply remove the # and it looks like this:
Quote:
#Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server Subsystem sftp internal-sftp UsePAM yes Match Group sambashare
[code]...
However, thats when I start running into problems. When I try logging in with Filezilla; I am not able to connect and this is the response I get from Filezilla:

I have implemented SugarCRM on a SUSE 10 box . Every thing goes ok but in the SugarCRM ,it's saying : Error: Could not connect to the Sugar Server. Please check your Proxy Settings value in the System Settings admin panel. Last attempted connection @ 10/11/2010 06:37pm and unable to setup email inside that. But the system is neither have proxy setting and internet runs fine outside SugarCRM. In RHEL, CentOS all run ok but not in SUSE ?
I am getting this error when I try to connect to my MySQL database from a PHP page. MySQL is working fine on it's own and PHP is working on it's own. "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /usr/local/htdocs/test.php on line 11" I have found instances on the Internet where other people had the same problem but from everything I've read, none of it appears to do anything for me. I have read that I need the "extension=mysql.so" in my php.ini file and to uncomment it but it's not in there and I don't even have the "mysql.so" file. Many people have said to install the MySQL "devel" package, which I have also done and it is still not adding the file. (Tried "rpm -i php-mysql") I have also tried running the PHP ./configure again with the "--with-mysql". After all of these I still can't seem to get any further than I was when I found out I had a problem
We have Exchange as our Mailbox server > Qmail as our SMTP server > and we use postini for filtering. We recently got word from a customer that he received a "451 error - can't connect to server" message from Postini - stating that the server is unreachable. This does not happen often so obviously Postini can connect to the qmail server. Are there logs that I can look at to find out why and when these would occur?
I am trying to use my tmobile 8320 blackberry as a modem I hook it up through the USB and the phone is recognized I go into network manager to enter the settings for my Apn and Number to dial to and when I try to enter the Network to connect to the apply button goes away and it won't let me go past that point is this something screwed up in Ubuntu

I get this error ALL THE TIME after a reboot if I try to print. Going to the printing applet to add the printer does no good because Lucid is not connected to the CUPS server. I found that the work-around below fixes the issue for the current session.
when i tried the command mysql -u root it is giving me an error that "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'(2)" although my mysql server is ruuning beacuse i m using XAMMP server and its inbuild mysql server is running i cannot use service mysqld start command beacuse this command try to start another instance of mysql and i required mysql of XAMMP.
I am using fetchmail (with ssl support) to download my e-mail. About a week ago, the downloading from two servers stopped, among them gmail.com, due to an ssl error. Usually that means updating the ssl fingerprint in fetchmail.conf, and when I wanted to do this I discovered that there seems to a issue with openssl.
When I do openssl s_client -connect pop.gmail.com:995 -showcerts I now get an error
What is the magic that needs to be done to be able to record in audacity?
- Fedora 15 x86_64 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64 - SoundBlaster X-Fi card. -I have added rpmfusion to yum repos.
When I start audacity the following is printed to the concole:
Code:
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server socket jack server is not running or cannot be started Expression 'stream->capture.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3653
I have FileZilla installed on this machine, and OpenSSH (with an open port 22) on another machine on my home network. When I try and connect, I get: Quote: Status:Connecting to 192.168.2.3... Response:fzSftp started Command: open "alphatwo@192.168.2.3" 22 Error:Connection refused Error:Could not connect to server
Which has left me puzzled as I have an open port. Does the username have to be defined somewhere? E.g. the machine acting as my SFTP server can be logged on to locally as alphatwo so that's what I logged in as (with the correct password). Is this correct? If so, does anyone have any ideas as to how I might rectify it? I want SFTP set up so I can copy PHP files from my laptop to /var/www/html/ on another PC (across the home network).
I have installed the mysql server on my ubuntu. I need to assign or reset the root password. I followed the article at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/reset-the-...-on-mysql.html. When I ran the command

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) what am i doing wrong, and explain to someone who almost has no experience with ubuntu. I am new to this.
I set up 9.10 as a file server at my house, connected through the router via LAN. I had everything working, using it as a Samba file server. I moved to to my college apartment and I am now having troubles... I changed the network information in /etc/networking/interfaces to what it should be (or at least I thought so...)
I can ping myself, but nothing else. Also, on my router configuration page, the server is coming up as a connected device with the correct IP address that I set it to.
My problem is that i cannot connect to anything that is running on this server via WAN. i can connect to everything from anywhere just fine through LAN though... i have all in use ports opened up on my router. i tryed messing with the ubuntu firewall and even tryed turning it off. but no luck. btw i am running ubuntu server 10.04 with matching desktop!
I just loaded NX Server, following the instructions from NoMachine. When I try to login from a client I get "Authentication Failed for User My Username" I can use the same client to connect to another NX Server on my network so I know the client works. I'm not clear if I need to set up a user, or if I can just logging with the username & password from the host (which is what I'm trying).
i cannot connect via WAN to my ubuntu server. Literally out of nowhere it stopped working. i could connect to my Ubuntu server via WAN alll night long without trouble.
I just setup sshd server on my ubuntu server 10.10 today. I then tried to connect to it with putty on my windows laptop outside the lan but failed. I entered the ip address as my wan ip address and the port as 23 (same port on the ssh server. I also have port forwarding enabled. The connection timed out every time.There are a lot of guides about ssh reverse tunneling but none works.
