I'm trying to change the ssh port on one of my servers, I have edited the sshd_config file and ssh_config. Changed the port, then enabled the port on APF. Restarted both APF and SSH.
Tried logging in via the port I specified, would not let me. Tried the default port, logged in fine. Why won’t it change to the port I specify?
I have a friend who usually manages my server, but he's been hard to contact, and these forums are officially my best friend
I figured out how to change the sshd config, and restarting the service to change the port. My friend installed a firewall due to ddos attacks, and I think i need to manually unblock the port that I would like to be the new sshd port. How can I find out what firewall I'm running, and where can I add a new port to the allow list?
Have some very important questions regarding changing plesk ports and creating full backups.
1. When changing plesks port number, what exactly will it effect? Will it effect auto updates, etc.?
2. When creating a backup, I'd like to backup the entire server to rollback at anytime when changes are made to core files, is this possible?
3. With backups, somehow I'd like to schedule backups to possibly make nightly copies to an external hard drive on my computer for a fail safe method just in case the server happens to crash and I'd need to restore to another server/service. How would this be possible?
Currently I am using Linux + cPAnel and using the port 25 for email sevrer. Currently we facing 1 problem is, some user's ISP is not support port. May I know how can I add additional port into server and allow users to send mail by different port?
I have an office internal website and I opened a port in the gateway of my office (7080) to this website (server )'s 80 port. That makes this website open to public as office has static IP. And then when I view the site from home . it's fine. But when I tried to login, the site is using a pop-up, I guess it's http authentciation, login, I was redirected to a url without my port number any more, that stops my access to the site as obviously I would.
My Linux box has a set IP address that never changes. However, I am switching my server from one collocation to another so in the process my IP address will be different.
The last time I switched my box, I had my ISP admin change the IP address within my linux box, but now that might not be an option.
So in linux, CentOS 4.1, how do I change the IP address on the box?
As much as I can remember, I had to change it in:
/etc/netstart
But I also remember there is another file that needs to be edited within the server to change the IP.
I have been with this hosting company for almost five years now and until today the service has been excellent. I am having massive ftp issues. I have 41 different domains that I run for a variety of projects. Needless to say I keep each website in a different folder. I just tried to switch one of my blogs from blogger to wordpress. Blogger won't let me have my domain back and keeps blocking it with a 404 error. But that is a separate issue. I tried using one of my extra domains and pointing it at my new blog folder. But it keeps bouncing back to my root directory. I contacted 1and1 and they reset the server, but now they are blaming me for the issue. I can access the blog through it's subdirectory but I can't post the blog there.
Anyways, I am not ready to move over all of my websites, but I do want to move my blog to a new host. I am mainly hoping that I can escape 1and1 and blogger in one move if I change the host of this one website. It's funny I have been happy for years and recommended them to friends, but now I am very disappointed. Can someone recomend a reliable host? I am looking for one with a cheap lowend package to start off. If I end up staying I will need a lot of bandwidth as I have a podcast that had a lot of traffic. Basically, there are so many companies that I just can't tell which ones are reliable. That's my main concern. Also I use SQL a lot. Thanks!
I'm changing my webhost after getting screwed around with countless downtimes and now their own site is completely down.
I'm looking for a new host, and had been looking at alot of review sites. After looking at a few of them, found that they were obviously fakes with almost 100% good reviews for some hosts, completely dissing some other hosts, and the complete opposite on some other sites.
Looking for recommendations for your own host, do state your site too so I can try out the response.
Criteria
excellent uptime responsive support + live support chat h-sphere preferred, but not a must have (I like having subdomains in directories at the same level as domains) does not ridiculously overload their servers (well, who can tell?) good site response time budget at 10usd per month allows many domains/sites, no need for super high bandwidth as I just host many small sites PHP with .htaccess access + imagemagick/gd
I currently work for a small company that has a website hosted by a local hosting company. We have not been happy with them and are planning on switching hosts. Now I know that you are suppose to update your name servers for your domain name to point to your web host's name servers. Problem is I don't know how to get access to do this (all of this stuff was setup many years ago way before I got here).
Using whois I see our domain registrar is DomainBank.com but I have no account information to log in and change our name servers. How do I go about doing this? Is it possible our existing host did all of this originally and they have an account with DomainBank instead?
we are Hostingzoom's customer from 2005! we had a payment due on a service and hostingzoom suspended all of our services! how come it's possible? to all users I want to let you know to take care about this changes .. hostingzoom was the best but it looks like that it's no more like before! maybe the company is sold!
Take Care About your accounts, have a daily backup of your accounts and do not trust to buy more from them! we lost lots of our clients "about 500", and we face critical problem with what they did to us for $80! and we had problem with our credit card issuer right now! ... HostingZoom is changing take care ..
I currently have my account with streamline.net (utter crap never use that company). I want to move 2 of my domains off this company and on to another one.
What is the process in doing this and as anyone any good recommendations for hosting companies to use?
I have IIS on my computer and I want to start using a php driven forum (SMF) on my web site. Before I upload the files I need to check the following settings are on:
the engine directive must be On.
the magic_quotes_sybase directive must be set to Off.
the session.save_path directive must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
the file_uploads directive must be On.
the upload_tmp_dir must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
I cant find anywhere within IIS where these directions maybe found. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I have a domain registered with Dotster and my NameServers point to Verio who is my webhost. My MX Records at Verio point to Appriver who handles my email. I'd like to get Verio totally out of the picture and just host my site at Dotster and still keep the email at Appriver. However, I'm not quite sure the order in which to change the various settings.
Do I just change the Name Servers at Doster to point to Dotster instead of Verio and then use Dotster's DNS to point the MX Records to Appriver? Would I then disable the MX Records at Verio? What about propagation of these changes...would I lose email traffic?
Do I need to change the TTL? I'm really not sure about the order of the steps.
ive been a member of these forums for a few months now, mainly scouring for CSS tips and solutions. However, i've recently purchased Kevin Yanks book; Build Your Own Database Driven Website Using MYSQL and PHP, to work through. Annoyingly i'm having a problem with the initial MySQL setup which i cant seem to find a solution to on these forums or even Google. The book instructs the user to edit the my.ini file by adding the 'old-passwords' command, but no matter what i try i cannot save any additional content to this file. i just get the error... "Cannot create C:/programfiles/mysql/mysql server 5.0/my.ini". I fear im overlooking something very simple here. Has anyone else experienced this? The only thing that comes to mind is that im running Vista, which the book predates.
Of course 'date -s' doesn't work on VPS. Using zic and timezones > /etc/localtime could help up to (almost) 24 hours, but dates are out of range.
Some systems can enable something like defying "Time Drift" as on some Xen versions (as shown below), but unfortunately my provider apparently doesn't support it.
# set independent_wallclock # echo 1 > /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock
I am currently on a VPS plan. My usage has become so much I need to switch to a different plan out of a different state. So with the new plan I will have a new IP address. What do I have to do to make the switch?
i've set all folders,sub folder and files under this folder to be 777 since it is a folder for my users to upload attachments~
however this is the problem. users all failed to upload because the permission of the new folder created by apache for the users to store their attachment are set to 755, which i wanted them to be 777. (those 777 folders were from old server.)
if u take a look at the pic attached , you know what i meant. does anyone have any idea of how i can change the permission for this whole foder to be 777 even with folder created by apache?
i tried chmod -r 777 attachment, but it says operation not permitted @@
I want to change the hosting to xyz.com from abc.com. .. what is required. I have changed the dns but now i get server not found on abc.com. what else is defined?
I just wanted to know if there's any way I could speed up the process of moving my clients domains from our old server to our new server.
All my clients are currently on server1 and I want to move them all to server2.
I know I can go in and change the name servers for each domain to the new server (NS) but just wanted to know if theres a quicker way such as changing the Ip Adresses in the SOA records to point to the IP address of the new server.
Then if they're already loading off the new servers ip address, I can then change the domains name servers afterwards.
