How Do You Use Multiple IPs With Antinat
Mar 17, 2008I have 11 seperate IPs on my server but when I login to them using socks5, they all still show that I'm on the main server's IP.

Aug 1, 2007This is a instructional overview thread for those developers who are getting into setting up their own server with a LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP) setup. The linux distro referred to in this thread is a centOS (fedora|redhat) setup.
Before Anything
- Make sure that your actual RAM is the same amount that is displayed by the server (there could be some BIOS restrictions on RAM so check for that).
Linux OS Installation
- Use a server system for the type of install.
------------------------------
- Setup you partitions with care:
- Make sure that everything other than /swap is an ext3 partition type.
- /swap (usually double the amount of space that your ram has but never larger than 4 gigs.
- /tmp (700meg is ok).
- /boot (100meg is ok).
- / (leave rest of the available space in the harddrive for this).
------------------------------
- Use GRUB boot loader
- Use DCHP only if your IP address changes due to the network. If not, then assign the IP address of the box.
- Assign the netmask if DCHP is not in use.
------------------------------
- When setting up the packages, select only what you need. Most of the time it's better to just install no packages and then install everything you need by yum (yellowdog update manager). If you do not select any packages, only the 1st CD of the linux install will be needed.
Linux OS Customizing
- Create a new user and provide it a password (with # passwd). Do not create a user with a generic or commonly known names used in any daemon programs (ex. mysql, apache, admin, user, php, postgresql).
- Disable the ROOT login in SSH (this means that when you login using the other user with SSH, you'll have to $ su to the root user).
- Install "Development Tools" with yum using group install if you plan to compile your own apache. If not then install apache with yum install apache.
Apache Settings
- Disable the extensions that you're not using for your website. If the server is only hosting one website, then there is no use for Virtual Hosts.
- Set the ServerLimit value to a suitable value so that users won't get locked out of the website.
- Change the User and Group directives to the newly created user.
- Set Options +Indexes to Options -Indexes so that the contents of directories w/o an index file will not be displayed.
- Change the DocumentRoot setting to the newly created user's home (~) directory. Or if you plan to use the default (/var/www/htdocs or /var/www/html) then assign the permissions of the user to that directory.
- Add apache as a start up program when the operating system boots up (this can be set in /etc/rc.d/local).
- Setup logs accordingly. If you setup image logging and your server has 20+ images per page then your website performance can suffer.
- Setup Error Logs to a suitable level.
- If any web pages are not displaying and the web server appears to be on when accessing it from the localhost (wget http://localhost) then disable or flush the iptables (/usr/sbin/iptables --fliush). You should also set this as a start up option for the OS.
- Use mod_rewrite to use modern URLs.
MySQL Settings
- Use --skip-name-resolve.
- Use --skip-bdb (if you're not using it).
- Use --skip-innodb (if you're not using it).
- Set a log for slow queries.
- Set the max_connections to a high value.
- Do not set a user with a wildcard ip-address. Only setup users with a specific ip.
- Use Query Caching for frequently used queries.
PHP Settings
- Disable Magic Quotes.
- Disable Register Globals.
- Disable Short Tags.
- Disable ERROR REPORTING if the website is not in development mode.
- Enable HTTP Only Session Cookies.
- Set Session Cookies to only be cookies (and not URL's).
- If sessions do not work, then set the session save path to a directory where the apache user has access to.
- Use Gzip Compression.
Optimizing Concepts
- Use an optcode cache for PHP (Eaccelerator).
- Consider using a static domain for CSS and JS files (this way the same cookies for the website won't be sent on each request).
- If your website uses alot of CSS and JS files per page, bundle all of them together into one request using mod_rewrite and php [url]
- For Apache, use the lingerD module (this reduces the amount of resources that are used when an apache connection is closed).
Here are some links for optimizing your server build:

I see over a few hundred of these lines in /var/log/messages. The timestamp is exactly the same for every 2 lines (Proftp session- Opened and Closed). It's occuring every hour of the day. Is someone attacking the ftp daemon or something?
VPS Config. To Much Stuff Running On It
Jul 1, 2007I am about to order a new VPS, and will like to have php,mysql,ruby on it. the extra thing would be tomcat 5.
First of all, I don't think that any of the clients is going to use tomcat, but it would look nice to have it there.
the VPS is something like:
Cent OS
512 Mb ram with 1,5 Gb burst
30 Gb space
Should I get tomcat installed or not?
A List & Anti-phishing Stuff
Dec 17, 2007I don't know about security on servers much, and we're setting up our new server. I have the techs doing the install stuff, but I would love to know what to install security wise. My current list:
Firewall - good free one?
Antivirus - good free one?
rootkit, some way of stopping it (anti-rootkit?)
Also, is there some sort of script which searches all cPanel accounts/files for phishing sites or spam sites etc? I swear I've seen one before, in firewall form?
Oh the server setup is going to be:
php5-CGI, fCGI, mySQL 5, apache 2.2.x, centOS, ruby on rails, django, ioncube, other php libraries, mod_rewrite, I think thats everything. (cPanel).
Security To Stop DDoS Attacks And Stuff
May 19, 2009My host tells me that they have security to stop DDoS attacks and stuff, however today my server load jumped to 17.12 and my site went down giving me a "Network Timeout" error.
My host tells me it's my fault that I am using too many resources. The MOST my site has been on load is 3.06 and that was around lunch time a few weeks back. It's 11:43 and the server load is 17.12? I think my host is pulling my leg. I have not added ANYTHING new to my site and have not changed anything in 3 days. The load has been fine till today.
I use In Motion Hosting.

IIS Proxy
Mar 28, 2007I work for a company who is on Microsoft Technology, IIS 6.0 specifically is what I deal with day to day. We support classic asp 3.0, .net and php ( through plain jane cgi mode *yuck* ) and I am newly hired and bring ruby on rails to the table.
Eventually we are going to replace the entire stack with ruby on rails as I re-code our existing tech. While waiting for IIS 7 to solve the majority of their problems with the lack of MS made IIS modules for rewriting URLs, fast CGI, Server-Side Forwarding I need to get my application out the door and for it to be stable.
Our server is a 2.4ghz Xeon with 512mb and our first order of business is to finally push it to 2g ram. That will help Ruby best as the application is running. What I would like to do is Have IIS sit in front of Mongrel, a ruby HTTP server serving my RoR applications, and pass requests to it.
For example the IIS right now is serving 3 .org/edu sites. We use a company to redirect our URL requests to our IP and IIS has 3 virtual servers passing on the buck all on port 80. It works very well.
I want mongel to sit at, for example, port 8080 and have 1 .org that we serve to use mongrel to serve the content. As I understand it this is called Server-Side Forwording, aka Proxy, and is very ellusive on Windows.
The options I have found is a) the use of Microsoft ISA which is probably out of the question. b) an ISAPI such is ISAPI Rewrite or c) Pound
Our problems arise is that we don't have the ability to toss up another machine for Pound or ISA. Pound can run on CentOS out the box but again, no machine as we are funded by grants, and that will ruin one of the network admins remote desktop uses [so I understand but I could be wrong.]
I have posted on the ISAPI Rewrite forums to see if their 'proxy' feature is indeed what I am looking for. I don't have anything bad to say about Microsoft tech, I enjoy Apache 1x, 2x and have come to respect IIS 6 as well. I just find it hard to find a lot of solid products and documented howto's on MS. One thing I don't find lack of is people with the same darn problem and nobody willing to share solutions exept the ones that are really just technology previews.
So my question is : Has anyone has run across this need and what you did to solve it. Am I on the right track? Again, solutions like mod_proxy for apache isn't an option I need IIS.
Web Proxy - Well It's Not Exactly A Web Proxy
Dec 14, 2007Here is the situation:
I'm from a country that block websites! Recently they blocked a useful website that my friends and me can't live without!
We already have a dedicated server (located in the US). We need to do the following:
- register a domain name, and when this domain is requested, requests will be served through our server. That means that our server will get the requested website then delivers it to the user who has requested the website
I know I can simply install a web proxy script such as CGIProxy and use it to surf this blocked website or other blocked websites as well, but that website heavily uses Javascript which I noticed that it does not function probably with scripts such as CGIProxy .
I do not need a detailed HowTo of course, I just need to know where to start from, is this related to some apache option? Do I need some specific software to be installed on server? I need any clue to get me started.
VPS For Proxy
Nov 10, 2007i came across on so many forums and asking a vps that is good for proxy, please state also the standard memory for it...
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhy No IRC, Adult, Or Proxy On VPS
Aug 3, 2007Okay, I keep seeing VPS (and dedicated for that matter) providers that say you have control over your box... and then forbid things like IRC, adult content, and proxies. Why? What is it about those three types of content that strike fear into the hearts of hosting providers?
I can see forbidding those on shared hosting accounts. The extra CPU and bandwidth required could really put a crimp on the other accounts. But with VPS and dedicated, you are paying for a portion of the CPU and bandwidth so why would the provider care what you do with them?
What am I fundamentally missing?
FTP Authentication Proxy
May 12, 2009way to centrally login our FTP clients. We currently run ftp1/2/3/4.[url]and would like to have simply [url]which would authenticate the user and push the user to the relevant server.

Oct 17, 2009I'm outsourcing some works overseas and my oversea employees are directly contacting the customer to discuss his needs. Everything is fine except when a client sees the email IP address (he is dealing with a local company, how come he is being emailed me from India or some similar places).
So I decided to create a proxy server for the oversea employees. I need the one that requires the browser setting change to have all the traffic passing through the server/VPS, therefore the IP will be the IP of the server and there's no way to find the original IP (of course no problem is it exists in the proxy server, but not showing in any way to the customer).
The problem is I absolutely have no idea how to do this.
- Can this be accomplished on a VPS or a server is required?
- Do I need a Linux or Windows OS?
- Do I need any software? If so, could you recommend some.

Ads Insertion Proxy
May 21, 2008I would like to setup lighttpd with automatic insertion of some ads text to each html page requested by server.
I already managed this on Apache by adding perl scirpt as output filter, which actually work pretty well and fast. But the purposse of this project is freehosting with a lot of request's per second which will be critical for Apache and Lighttpd would do a better work in this case.
My solution, which I will use if anything better appears is to have Apache configured as a proxy inserting the ads and forward all request's to lighttpd.

I need a company that will allow me to run a proxy on their VPS servers as well as a company that will give me a great low monthly price. I want it to be less then $40.00 but even thats sort of pushing it. I'd like it some where more around $20-30 a month. I defintely need great uptime and support. Also i'm looking to have cPanel on the VPS as well. Any ideas or suggestions on who to go with? The sites aren't too big but im on a shared host which claims that they have no problem with proxy sites but once it gets bigger i fear they are going to shut me down.
