Dec 29, 2007way to create a VPN tunnel between two ubuntu servers?
Both will be in seperate datacentres but I'd like a secure tunnel so I can setup jobs to backup to one another.
This has to be done on the server level and cannot be done at the router/firewall as I do not have access to this kit.
Cent OS
Apr 23, 2007I have a server in our office which is used as a share drive. Puts all accounting docs on it ect. After 6 or so, it will loss all conectivity completely. Yet the server still stays on. We installed everything in all packages on the server including it graphical interface. We havent mucked with any of the powersavings so what could it be. Also there is nothing plugged into it eg screen,keyboard and mouse. All that is connected is the power cable and the ethernet cable. That is it.
It is directly connected to a belkin wireless router

How Does Cent Os Pick Mirror?
Nov 5, 2009I noticed with every new cent os server there are different mirrors for cent os repos.Since on each cent os repo file is same,how does it pick which mirror it pick?I ask beacuse latest server has picked one extremly slow edu mirror which is not just slow,it also timeout,and it may extend update to 2 hours instead 5 minutes which usually will take.So how do i change base mirror on base cent os repo?

How To Check Which Version Of Cent Os Is Used
Jun 28, 2009how to check which version of cent os is used?
my friend ordered an vps with a host, he ordered 5.3 - 32bit but some how I feel he has been provided with 5.0 version by the host, I didn't know how to confirm it, when I checked his hypervm, this was the cent os details provided:
Ostemplate: centos-5-i386-hostinabox576
there is rebuild option in the hypervm and in tht when I look out,here it shows the following:
[url]
what my friend exactly needs is a cent os 5.3 - 32bit system, so if he selects cent os 5.3-ix386 (full) will it install with cent os 5.3 ?? he doesn't want kloxo to b in there auto, he/I can install tht,

View 14 Replies View RelatedHow To Run PHP 4 And 5 In Ubuntu Without CGI
Jun 21, 2007When we chose Symfony to implement [url], PHP 5 was needed but we only had PHP 4 installed in our Ubuntu hosting servers. We couldn¡¯t just migrate everyone to PHP 5 since some of client¡¯s applications were incompatible with PHP 5. Some tutorials were found online explaining how to run PHP 4 and PHP 5 simultaneously such as [url] and [url]but they all used CGI. As you probably know, CGI is not scalable and we needed to scale in PHP4 and PHP5 since we needed to server millions of hits in both configurations. The following are additional the requirements we had:
1. Run Apache
2. Use mod_php for both PHP versions.
3. Run eAccelerator with both PHP versions.
4. Use as many Ubuntu packages as possible to ease maintenance issues and easily deploy on multiple servers.
5. Use Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
The solution we came up with was to run Apache 2 with PHP 5 and run Apache 1 with PHP 4 on separate IPs. Ubuntu comes already with these packages. The only package we had to compile was eAccelerator. The following lists the steps taken to get this setup:
Apache 2 with PHP 5
* apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php5-cli php5-curl php5-gd php5-mysql php5-dev make php5-mcrypt php5-imap
* vi /etc/php5/cli/php.ini and uncomment extension=mysql.so
* vi /etc/apache2/ports.conf and put Listen Your.IP.Goes.Here:80
* a2enmod expires

Php.ini On Ubuntu Is Confusing Me
Mar 11, 2009I am all too familiar with php on my win box but now am working on Linux.
the extension_dir is commented out (??) however CURL does work but there is nothing about CURL in php.ini. I cant find any php.so files.
Also the php.ini file lives in /etc/php5/apache2
Does this look like a standard install? Where do the .so files live?
Ultimatly I want to install Turck MMCache which requires some extensions and when ever I try to do phpize there is the error message
Cannot find config.m4 (google is not helping solve the problem)

phpize is a shortcut in usr/bin that points to etc/alternatives/phpize which in turn is a shortcut to usr/bin/phpize5

Ubuntu Server Or Debian
Jul 9, 2008I've just ordered a dedicated server with Ubuntu server, but they've come back to me to say that they've had trouble installing Ubuntu server on these particular servers.
As an alternative, they're offering to install Debian. My concern is that I come from a windows background and have spent the last month reading and playing with Ubuntu Server in vmware. I'll be running a small handful of sites on the server and will rely on the apt-get and package installer in webmin to get things set up and for administration. I'll dabble in the shell a little, but only when needed.
Should I go with a different host that can offer Ubuntu, or will I be okay with Debian?

How To Get BFD Or Antidos To Work On Ubuntu 5.10 / 6.06 --- Plesk 8?
Sep 18, 2006Have been trying to get BFD and APF Antidos (not at same time) to work on Ubuntu 5.10 / Plesk and 6.06 (No Plesk yet) servers. APF appears to work fine after checking /sbin/iptables -L -n
Both cronjobs run but getting a lot of brute force attacks to ssh and Plesk but no offending IP's are being blocked and no e-mails reporting that they are being blocked. Log files for BFD and Antidos are always "0". Everything setup and configured the same as on my previous CentOS servers.
Can't find much on the net with this newer OS. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get one of these to work on the systems above? Thought it might be a path error referencing rc.d but put a symlink in for that and no change.
