Installing Windows Remotely
Aug 20, 2008
my current situation is that i'm currently renting out a server in a datacenter, and there is no realistic way I can get physical access. Call me cheap, but I really don't fancy shelling out $100 to get my techs to install it. I do have an idea though, and I just wanted to know how realistic it is / how I would go about performing it.
My server has a rescue shell (uses busybox) that I am able to re-install the OS from (all linux OSes), re-partition the HDD and do general troubleshooting things from. If I was to create a VMware machine on my local computer, install windows 2003 and use a hdd image cloner (from within the machine) to create an image of the HDD, how would I go about copying this image to the server's HDD? I don't know of any cross platform "HDD backer upper / recoverer thingies"

I have just ordered an unmanaged dedicated server with KVM IP. now what I want to know is, how can I install software from my computer to the dedicated server on the other end? Would I have to upload the ISO to that server then install it from there or can I install it directly from my computer to that computer?

Any tools, programs that will execute either with windows on (remote desktop) or install a boot script that will wipe off the hard-drive without going to the datacenter?
This is for windows server 2003.

Windows Server 2012r2
Plesk Panel 12.0.18 Update #36, last updated at Feb 20, 2015
my server running version 12 on win server 2012r2 of the panel. Sometime in the last few days something has changed and I can no longer load the Admin panel on ip:8443.
I can access the panel by using remote desktop into my server and loading it locally.
I also can not connect to the server using the mobile manager app or via telnet. If I disable the firewall in the Plesk panel it works fine so I checked my firewall but incoming on 8443 is allowed. It seems the firewall is blocking ports that were previously open as I can't remote access my MS SQL server either without switching the firewall off.
The only change I'm aware of since I last used the panel is the update #36 install. Not sure where to look next?

I designed my companies website but we've had a change in IT and php went down. The new guy (who is here to fix things) just sent me this and quite frankly I'm at a loss (i use a VPS, thus never having to deal with this stuff). But seeing how it's my own company I figured I'd try to help.
Here is the question:
Quote:
You are running IIS (windows server). The PHP should be something straight forward, but as we see it is not...
Previously, you had PHP ver PHP 5.2.6 dated may 2008. - it wasn't working correctly.
I updated it with the latest version php-5.2.9-1 dated march 2009. - and now the PHP is not functioning.
My questions, if you know was to figure which option of PHP cgi are you using.
IIS ISAPI module
IIS FastCGI
IIS CGI
Then, when installing the PHP, there are many extensions that are optional to install. Do you know or can you tell me, which extensions are needed by your app?
Honestly, the website just uses a few php includes to template it (and make my life easier). And that's what were trying to get working.

I have a Windows Mobile 6 (Blackjack II) phone that I am connecting to my cpanel VPS via Pop3.
I have a number of pop3 accounts setup to check for email every 30 minutes. However, every couple days the phone stops downloading mail and if I do a manual send and receive I get a "The Server Certificate is not valid. Continue Anyway?" with a yes/no. If I click yes, the email downloads and then the automated emails will work for several days and then the process is repeated.
Does anyone know how to either disable this check on the phone (no luck finding that yet), or to install the certificate from the cpanel mail server to the phone?

The company I work for unfortunately runs their site on a IIS server. I want to install some forum software, vBulletin or phpBB onto the server and run it on the same site. PHP of course needs to be installed to do this.
Boss is worried that putting PHP on same server as ASP might take down the site if something goes wrong. What are the odds of this happening if I follow directions and what steps should I take to install?

The Webadmin app does not install all the folders it needs to run correctly. I have downloaded and repaired the install as noted in [URL] ..... This did not repair the install. All the folders that are needed in the application directory in the vhosts folder are still missing. I have attached the install log.

Plesk 12.0.18 updated recently. After resolution of any problems caused by migration, I'm on the last (I think).
By accessing the domain panel and try to install Wordpress on the applications tab, I encounter the error below:
Error: The Following error has occurred During The download of application: HTTP Error (0)
[URL] ....
This error is repeated for the installation of any application, such as Joomla and Drupal.

How can I run memtest86 remotely?? my server has crashed 8 times in less than a week ,
I've had many glitches, it's failed to restart a few times and twice I had a odd glitch where /home/mishkin/ on became read only access (even to mishkin) chmod couldn't fix it and the first time a reboot solved it, the seccond time the server went dead, not even remote reboot can bring it back online
I told my host server.lu about this and demanded a new server, they repleyed with "did you run memtest?"
I told them that I have no idea how to do that remotely and it's 12+ hours (8 of them buisness hours) without reply
help me out guys, oh also any idea how I can get it running again??
it's debian stable
oh and during some of the crashes I had 3 terminals and xfce4 running only (and wasn't even logged on )
I'm not running anything untested

I'm wanting to access one of my MySQL db's on my VPS (WHM/cPanel).
Specifically, I want to connect to the db from Excel and pull down certain data live.
I've set up my IP address for remote access in cPanel.
I've done this before on my old shared hosting account, where the hostname for the db was [url]
But under WHM/cPanel, the only hostname used for MySQL is 'localhost', which doesn't work when trying to connect remotely.

Just wondering if anyone can share how they access there colo servers remotely? We have a couple of servers in one datacentre and have just setup a new small co-lo solution.
At present we just use RDP to access our windows servers on the standard ports (pretty bad i know). The RDP ports are open as there may be occasions when we need to access the servers from anywhere. Our new soloution is presently setup like this but i am interested in locking it down.
How do other people access their servers? We have DRAC/ILO cards in the servers but we only tend to use these in emergencies as the remote console is pretty slow.
how to improve security are greatfully received!

I have 2 questions here.
1. I have installed mod_evasive version 1.10.1 on a Cent OS 4.4 server.
I'm using the test.pl script that comes with mod_evasive to test the configuration and when running the script from the same server mod_Evasive is installed. The mod_evasive is able to detect the intrusion and block the IP of the server.
If I use the same test.pl script from an external server the requests come in and are viewable in the access log but mod_evasive doesnt block the IP of the external server.
Probably is not blocing the ip of the external server because of latency.
Is there a way to modify the test.pl script to make it more agressive and get results when testing from an external server?
Here I'm pasting the code of the test.pl script:
Quote:
#!/usr/bin/perl
# test.pl: small script to test mod_dosevasive's effectiveness
use IO:ocket;
use strict;
for(0..100) {
my($response);
my($SOCKET) = new IO:ocket::INET( Proto => "tcp",
PeerAddr=> "test.domain.tld:80");
if (! defined $SOCKET) { die $!; }
print $SOCKET "GET /?$_ HTTP/1.0
";
$response = <$SOCKET>;
print $response;
close($SOCKET);
}
2. Also, I have sendmail installed and on the mod_evasive config I have email address specified on DOSEmailNotify. When testing from the internal server with the test.pl script the server is able to block the ip, put in the hash table but it never sends an email to my email address.

I don't know if this is possible after searching on the internet for solutions. Here is the problem. I recently logged off my colocated server 2 days ago, and have been trying to log into it again like I always do using remote desktop. Each time I try it gives me this following error: "This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator."
I've had this server colocated for about 5 months now and I've never had any issues connecting remotely to it. Seems like Remote Desktop got broken somehow, or it's being blocked? I am an admin with logins/passwords etc. The OS is Windows Server 2003 R2, I'm not connected to a remote reboot console. I don't want to have to call the data center for remote hands on support for a restart if that's not going to fix the issue, from what I've heard they charge quite a bit.

Is there a script or program which I can use to start my game servers remotely? I am giving my friend a free game server, but the problem is that he wants the power to start/stop the server because he wants to update the binaries. I am not looking for a game server control panel, but more like a small script or program that has the power to start/stop the server. The game server I am hosting for him is Team Fortress 2. Also, it has to be free since I am not going to make any profit of this.
Game - Team Fortress 2
OS - Windows 2003 Server
Web hosting - WAMP

KVM to manage multiple servers using single KVM.
We want that if server owner want the kvm for its server we add the user remotely and provide him username/password for KVM to access his server. Once he is done we remove his access from KVM.
Can this kvm [url] be used to manage multiple servers remotely?
There are more then 12 servers to be managed remotely.
All the operations has to be managed remotely. We don't want datacenter intervention or datacenter guys to plugin and plugout the kvm's for each server.

I've been debating this in my head in that we have a number of servers that need to mount a remote server (for backups actually) and debating about the best way of doing it. Traditionally I would use NFS but this is going to have to run over the public internet and NFS is insecure at the best of times.
Now I've got root on all the servers and I was thinking of using sshfs via fuse but just wondered if anyone had any input of the stability of it or any other way.
R1Soft wouldn't work in this method as the backups are created by the user
