if there are any hosts you would recommend working with for hosting a DB app (MySQL or SQL Server is fine). The trick with many hosts is that the database is not made directly available to remote clients due to security reasons. What I'd like to do is provide the DB hosting for a client/server application we are developing. For many of these users, setting up and managing a database will be too complex, so I'd like to provide the hosting for them.
Additionally, we'll be starting small and will need room to grow -- probably up to fully dedicated hosting.
So -- any good experiences out there with this kind of hosting? It goes far beyond the usual specs of bandwidth, disk space, etc. into needing low server densities, high availability of the DB service, and most importantly, no plans to block remote access to DBs in the future...
How do i setup vpn server on windows 2003 so that client traffic go through the remote vpn server? Something like strongvpn.com service which change the client ip address.
I tried setting up, now client able to connect to the server using windows vpn. But once connected, internet cannot work. How to use the vpn server as gateway?
Server have only 1 network card.
Can windows xp act as vpn server for the same purpose?
some clients on server couldn't access vb sometimes. this error occured
HTML Code: [B]Forbidden[/B]
You don't have permission to access /vb/showthread.php on this server. So I checked /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log and found this error
Code: client denied by server configuration: /home/USER_NAME/public_html/vb/showthread.php what does it mean, and How it was happened sometimes not all time?
Lately my users have been getting 403 and 404 errors for pages that are on the server and have the correct permissions. when I look in cpanel in the error logs I see the error:
Mon Mar 26 12:43:09 2007] [error] [client 216.x.x.x client denied by server configuration: /home/xxxx/public_html/acronyms.php
I just purchased a new server with 4 hotswap HDD of 250GB each and reload with new CentOS 5 without any host control panel.
The purpose is to backup all my other Cpanel servers data remotely. All my Cpanel servers are fully managed servers. This is the first time i'm going to do all things by myself, so I'm really a newbie. Please don't advise me to hire a server admin because I end up learning nothing I need to learn..
1. My first step now is to secure & harden the server.
- Can anyone mind to share with me valueable knowledge of basic server security & hardening? I was also thinking to use sudo root password which my serveradmin actually did but I don't know how. But su - access level would be OK too.
- I also need to install firewall and close all kind of port and block all SSH connection from all kind of IP except my server & my own IP address only. Can anyone provide me a guide?
2. Secondly what I need is to install FTPd and create user for each hard drive with 2 directory inside. /sda/server1/ /sda/server2/ /sdb/server3/ /sdb/server4/ /sdc/server5/ (reserved for future server) /sdc/server6/ (reserved for future server) /sdd/server7/ (reserved for future server) /sdd/server8/ (reserved for future server)
Does anyone knows where to find documentation how do install ftpd and how to setup user pointed to the specific directory.
I have a client who's server has got DDOS attack. It causes the network disruption and DC wants to turn off the server. My client feels it stupid to turn off the server just like that.
I know that port 80 is reserved for HTTP communication to clients on the apache server,and that the client can receive the HTTP response to any port on the client machine, I think there might be more details to it than this. I am required to describe how client and server sockets are used for the client/server communication between an Apache Web server and Web client processes.
I am trying a webpage siremis whenever i try to login i am getting below error in error log of apache [client 192.168.137.7:4758] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /opt/siremis-4.0.0/siremis/.htaccess

i am using apache 2 and php 5.5.1 and mysql 5.6.12.
I have completed email set up on my server and have checked that email ports are open, but for some reason outlook keeps returning : "Outlook cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that you DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct."
The odd thing is that outlook still picks up emails if I receive any, but keeps returning above error every minute.
I host a number of large sites (20GB+) on my VPS server running Centos6 and Plesk Panel 12. Due to the large sites I don't want to keep multiple backups on the actual server because it would take too much disk space. When I create a backup to the server's repository all is good, but when I click the green arrow to download the backup it takes a long time and then it fails with a timeout error. On some smaller sites it takes a while but eventually downloads the tar.
So my question: Is it possible to access the Server Repository via FTP? How and where would I set this up? Presumably it would be a better way to download these large archive files?
The last packet successfully received from the server was 60.410.682 milliseconds ago. The last packet sent successfully to the server was 60.410.687 milliseconds ago. is longer than the server configured value of 'wait_timeout'. You should consider either expiring and/or testing connection validity before use in your application, increasing the server configured values for client timeouts, or using the Connector/J connection property 'auto Reconnect= true' to avoid this problem.
I've got a client using zoneedit.com and their domain.tld is being redirected to the right ip, however, it gets redirected to our main site. but, if you type in domain.tld/index.php its fine.
I would like to know if its possible and if someone is using a remote clamav server to check the messages against viruses.
We are running around 15 servers and all of them have the clamd installed, and we waste time upgrading the software, database and also monitoring many services that are exactly the same one.
Our idea is to setup a central server that those 15 servers will send the message for checking first.
We are running cPanel and Exim on those 15 servers.
We have implemented remote spamassassin checking this week and its working like a charm.
i am trying to setup a remote sql server , the web server which runs everything but sql is cpanel/WHM and the SQL server is Centos 5. I have installed mysql on the SQL server and it is running.
When i put the information in cpanel for remote sql setup it comes up with an error of :
usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'IP Address' failed error: 'Host 'hostname' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server' mysql has failed, please contact the sysadmin (result was "mysql has failed").
Is there something i have to enter in the remote sql server to allow the IP address of the cpanel server to be able to connect to the SQL server?.
I would like to setup my server to allow remote access from home. It's on an office network which is separated from the WAN by a router. So long as I'm on this network, I can access the server from any computer connected to it. I enter the https URL of my server through IE and it brings me to the helm interface (the one that comes with Windows Server 2003). I can click on Maintenance and then on Remote Desktop, and it opens a new window with the server's desktop displayed.
If I'm somewhere other than the office network, I can't access it. IE gives me a "can't find webpage" message (or something along those lines). How do I setup my server to access it from outside the office network. I'd prefer to have a similar graphical interface as Remote Desktop.
I see option to setup remote Mysql server in WHTM but wonder can i connect 2 servers through private network then fill in Remote server address something like 192.168.1.2. If it is possible it would save me a lot of bandwidth for both servers.
A client has told me that his brother wants to put the company email on a remote server through Google. Currently the email goes via the hosting company.
He has asked me to send his brother the username and password for "updating domain information" so he can demonstrate what he is suggesting.
I am not really sure what he wants (as I always set up email via the hosting company and am not familiar with any other way): domain details or hosting company details with the email passwords etc? If the latter, I am not too happy about giving him access to all the website files that I am responsible for.
