I have a VPS (ConetOS 4.4, OpenVZ), it all works fine, however on reboot, the resolv.conf gets reset to some nameservers that are no longer in use, How do I change this so after a reboot it uses the nameservers I am using now?
My current resolv.conf looks like this:
nameserver 85.234.133.209
nameserver 85.234.144.209
I have a new VPS server in which I did not configure the /etc/resolv.conf file. My VPS has three domains that are all working and resolving fine. But I keep getting an email from my provider that says this:
The hostname (v6.volumedr.com) resolves to. It should resolve to xx.xx.xx.xx. Please be sure to correct /etc/hosts as well as the 'A' entry in zone file for the domain.
Some are all of these problems can be caused by
/etc/resolv.conf being setup incorrectly. Please check this file if youbelieve everything else is correct.
You may be able to automaticly correct this problem by using the Add an A entry for your hostname ' under ' Dns Functions ' in your Web Host Manager.
Why does the actual server hostname need to resolve via dns?
I have confirmed that /etc/hosts looks good and I added an A record in my WHM for each domain. Do I need to configure the /etc/resolv.conf file too? Do I need to list my three domains and my server hostname(v8) and then my two primary DNS servers?
I'm supposed to be completing a server migration on Saturday night. But I have one teeeeny tiny problem....
I have no DNS/nameservers provided by my new DC for the resolv.conf.
They have them - but I don't think they operate like true root nameservers or something. I keep getting a ton of Unroutable Mail Domain errors for server email that should be leaving the new box.
When the resolv.conf was set to use the 4.2.2.x dns servers - it was working fine.
And I don't know if it's ok to just keep it using those or not?...
What other DNS servers can I use for the resolv.conf? Any DC's nameservers? Are there "public" ones available somewhere?
Is it better to put the IP of your server on the first line followed by the dns servers from the datacenter? And, how do you make the changes go in effect? I assume you just restart bind?
View 4 Replies View Relatedi own a dedicated server with bind running i have assigned 2 IPs for my nameservers.
what IPs should resolv.conf contain? should it have my nameserver IPs or that of hosting provider?
My sites all respond very slow (VPS) at the initial loading, that's why I try to check all dns settings.
My current resolv.conf
nameserver 64.235.32.203
that is the ns of my hosting provider.
Would I have an advantage if I add another and if so can I simply add my own nameservers?
how to set up /etc/resolv.conf to use the rotate option.
I've tried:
options rotate
options timeout:2
nameserver X.X.X.X
nameserver X.X.X.X
Yes using NSLOOKUP and DIG both always return results from the first name server if it is up (no rotation) and when it is down, the timeout is the default 5 seconds (not the 2 that I specified) before going to the second name server.
There is a simple way to reset my exim.conf to default one on a cpanel server?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have found through the KB the way to do it server wide but I was wondering if there was still a way to reset default domain permissions per domain.
/usr/local/psa/bin/repair --restore-vhosts-permissions - to restore all domain permissions.
How can I restart a SUSE server multiple times?
how to use Cron to restart the server every 5 minutes and then log the number of times this was done and output it to a file?
When cpanel edit the httpd.conf(to add subdomain/domain/etc) made a wrong.
In the lines
BytesLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domainorsubdomainname.com-bytes_log
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domainorsubdomainname.com combined
it breaks them as follows
--
BytesLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domainorsubdomainname.com
-bytes_log
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domainorsubdomainname.com
combined
And httpd cannot start and failed.
I recently needed to make some changes to the domain.conf file at the following path: /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts. When I try to edit the file it just has 3 lines at the top warning me that the changes made here would not persist, while other domain confs have full configs inside.
I am positive that the domain in question is set to use nginx, double checked this, so what gives? Why is the file blank?
It started with this error:
Bind reloading on server01 using rndc zone: [ns1.mydomain.net]
Error reloading bind on server01: rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused
so i did the obvious checked the csf firewall to see if port 953 was enabled and it was
so i took a look at rndc.conf
Code:
root@server01 [~]# nano /etc/rndc.conf
#start of rndc.conf
key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "KLGSBmWZrev0I4fR4Tm4GXxdcYSTFzF23b1f9is1M=";
};
options {
default-key "rndc-key";
default-server 127.0.0.1;
default-port 953;
};
# End of rndc.conf
# Use with the following in named.conf, adjusting the allow list as needed:
#key "rndc-key" {
# algorithm hmac-md5;
# secret "KLGSBmWZrev0I4fR4Tm4GXxdcYSTFzF23b1f9is1M=";
#};
#
# controls {
# inet 127.0.0.1 port 953
# allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { "rndc-key"; };
# };
# End of named.conf
Then i took a look at named.conf
Code:

* firewalls to block all ports except 53:

//query-source port 53;

Resolv Entries (space Separated)
I just got a very cheap box intended to learn HyperVM/OpenVZ. just got it tonight and got 5 IPs. So I add those 4 IPs in the Resources > IP Pools section. I don't know what to add in the Resolv Entries (space Separated) field.
if this is not the correct forum for this, please be free to move them.
I have 2 servers hosted with SoftLayer, In 22 Jun, I had reboot my servers, one of them didn't start and then SL said that it's was a reslov problem and we fix it, after that day, I start seeing all my websites traffic start go down , I check Google Analytics and the visitors number is going down everyday, I open a ticket and say that to SL and i think it's was a DNS problem they tell me after a lot of replys that they fix it and i must wait for 72 hours that need for the dns to be updated worldwide, I didn't say that SL support is bad no they are very very helpful support and many thanks to them, but i wanna to listen to your opinions here about my problem, and from where it's?

Server went down last night, submitted a reboot request and now the server is not responding to SSH.
It does respond to ping, so I'm assuming Linux might have booted up OK
Has anyone experience with this type of issue?
I ordered a leaseweb express server 4 box with windows server 2003 and have been running it, installed some software etc which worked out fine.
Anyways, I wanted to disable tcp/ip filtering which I did and afterwards it prompted me that I would have to reboot the server for the changes to take place, I clicked ok and it rebooted. Now I just can't connect with remote desktop, I tried everything.
I'm guessing it either shut down or didn't reboot properly? I tried sending an email to leaseweb support 2 days ago but still no shadow of any reply..
It says that I can reboot the server using the SSC but when I log in there, I can't really find any reboot option.
How can I see the logs for my server before doing reboot to see why was high load in my server?

I've been plagued over the past few weeks when I noticed the server keeps rebooting randomly ...
my datacenter says that they have not had power failures(lol yeh right) but i cant seem to figure out why my server seems to be rebooting randomly. so far its happened early 3-5am my times today and yesterday, just its happened 4x more times this morning.
im not sure if cpanel is sending me bind start failures because its not set to auto start up on reboot or if it might be related... but the server seems fine.
anyway to auto reboot server every 6 hours?
will this effect on the server?

i have a dedicated server at theplanet.I dont have a remote reboot option.
a friend of mine said,that all dedicated servers have remote reboot options.he says that since i dont have a remote reboot option,i am probably on a shared server.is that correct.does theplanet have shared or vps offerings in the first place ?
i cannot reboot the server,but i can log in through shell as root type in shutdown - and turn the damn thing off.....
I have Plesk 8 installed I would like to create Scheduled Task as root to reboot the server in every 8 hours.

I am gonna host a multi-platform website from my home server soon. My home server is basically IIS7 on Windows server 2008. However , I am currently experimenting with IIS7 on vista business .Unfortunalely I have experimented so much that I need to reset IIS7 to default settings.
I haven't backed up atall. So it would be great if someone can assist me in this matter.
problem I was having which was Windows Small Business Server 2003 would hang on boot up. I never got the time to reinstall the server until now.
I have installed the server and applied all updates. This worked fine until I install the Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 or 2. When I install SP1 or SP2 on reboot the server loads the Dell splash screen then the monitor LED light goes orange then green then orange and then just hangs with a blank screen.
I can boot into Safe Mode and uninstall the Service Pack and I can then reboot without any problems. I have installed ADAM SP1.
I have a cpanel, centos server that had to be rebooted due to the high load spike. I was unable to ssh in nor enter whm prior to the reboot so my only option was of course to reboot the server.
Now, I'm trying to trace the cause of the spike. RTG graphs show no indication of a ddos attack.
Inside whm, CPU/Memory/MySQL Usage shows no reds nor yellow warnings either except red for gzip (backup process) at 19% CPU. I doubt this is the cause.
This is from /var/log/messages of the logs slightly before and after the reboot.
