View 9 RepliesI am having a VPS and tried to use RDC from home and it i working. But from my office I couldn't since it looks like RDC is blocked when connecting to out of LAN.
I have tried with the support to change the ports couple of times but still didn't work.
I tried: GoToMyPC, IRemotePC etc. But I believe these 3rd part software doesn’t work in Windows 2003 Server.
how to overcome RDC problem or web service or web service that can work on Windows 2003 Server for RDC?
I've just ordered my new Windows 2003 server with 49Pence.com and will be taking "delivery" of it once they have commissioned it.
Anyway, I would appreciate some advice on how to secure it. I have been used to the luxury of a hardware firewall, but budgetary constraints mean I will have to rely upon a software firewall (something that scares me a little). It will be running our company websites, MSSQL and MDaemon mailserver.
I am not sure exactly how the server will be delivered, but I assume it will arrive fully patched with Remote Desktop access, and Windows Firewall installed.
First question: Is Windows Firewall sufficent? I am more used to configuring firewalls with Ports/Protocols/IP's rather than "applications". I also understand that Windows Firewall cannot restrict access to specific IP's.
I read that IPSec / TCP Filtering should also be used. I've looked at various links and have an idea how to do this, but I do not want to make a mistake and get "locked out". I saw a post saying that during testing they set up a scheduled job to reset the IPSec policies every x minutes so that they can log back in if they do make a mistake. How would this be done (in terms of IPSec) .. or is this a matter of stopping a service?
If I go with another software firewall, is there an easy way to install remotely without getting locked out of the Remote Desktop? KVM over IP is a charged by the hour.
It is "safe" to leave Port 3389 open and rely upon passwords (and potentially IPSEC IP policies), or should I administer by VPN?
If so, it seems that in order to create a VPN connection on the server, it requires that the Windows Firewall is shut down (at least on my test server here). Obviously this is something I don't want to do!
Almost all dedicated server providers offer windows 2003 server free. Any suggestions to choose one way or the other?
Any major limitations either of these cases? I never worked on linux before, have basic experience on unix though.
Please compare reliability, resources (if problems) in terms of cost, extendability, etc.,

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have been looking at utilizing something like nocmonkey or similar to make OS reinstalls easier on our servers. My real need is to be able to do this remotely if and when I can't have someone onsite do this to help speed up turning up a server where a client has cancelled, and we are reinstalling CentOS to turn up to new client.
I'm almost certain there is no quick and easy way to do a OS reinstall remotely without utilizing something like NOCmonkey, correct?

I'm making a reasonably uninformed comparison here. Since Windows Vista is noted to be more resource intensive and slower than Win XP, are we right in assuming that Windows 2008 is slower than Windows 2003?
For instance, with two boxes with an identical hardware setup but the two different server OSes, will the same application like, say MySQL run slower on the Win 2008 machine?

i have a 32bit centos running with 8 gigs, but only 7 is registering when i contacted support they told me
Your server does in fact have 8GB of physical memory however the reason it is not being recognized is due to the fact that you are using a 32 bit operating system. By default, the 8GB would be recognized if it were a 64 bit OS however on a 32 bit operating system, you must install and boot into the PAE kernel (physical address extension) for the 8GB to be recognized and utilized. The PAE kernel can be installed through yum when connected to your server as root over SSH. Once you have installed the kernel, you will need to reboot the server for these changes to take effect
i tried
yum pae install
yum pae kernel install
both didnt work can anyone give me a quick step by step guide on how to go about this.

I finally got my hands on a test server and am playing with Centos.

Is there any documentation on what to install for web server use? Is there a cheat sheet out there I can follow?
