I have a customer who created a subdomain and wants to redirect it to an address with pptp protocol. It doesn't seem to be working. When pointing to the subdomain, it will actually point to the designated destination IP, but it shows http instead of pptp. Am I assuming correctly that this is because you can't point to a pptp protocol in a browser?

Just wondering if anyone has come across this problem before.
My environment:
Xen VPS
128MB RAM
CentOS 4.5
I have install PPTP, and controlling via webmin. The server starts up fine, I have added a user account.
Here is the messages log after starting up PPTP:
Code:
Mar 5 15:00:56 uk2 pptpd[3562]: MGR: connections limit (100) reached, extra IP addresses ignored
Mar 5 15:00:56 uk2 pptpd[3563]: MGR: Manager process started
Mar 5 15:00:56 uk2 pptpd[3563]: MGR: Maximum of 100 connections available
Here is the messages log when trying to connect from a MS WINDOWS XP client: ....
I have buy a VPS from swvps ($10) with 300 MB Guarantee memory and 600 MB Burstable and 150GB B/W....
but that provider can not allow dev/ppp or dev/XXX ... only can allow TUN/TAP for OpenVPN...
I need a cheap vps for install PPTP VPN on it....
We have one windows VPS installed on hypervm.
Now client want to enable pptp or VPN on windows VPS?
Is it possible? And if yes...how to enable it?
I'm trying to establish a VPN server inside a Fedora 10 VPS under OpenVZ. Openswan or Poptop is preferred over OpenVPN because Windows has built-in support for these protocols.
It looks like the host node (it's actually the vps from myprohost.com) doesn't have the required kernel modules enabled(installed?). Take Poptop for example, if I run pppd after rpm installation, the output is like this:
[root@v ~]# /usr/sbin/pppd
/usr/sbin/pppd: This system lacks kernel support for PPP. This could be because
the PPP kernel module could not be loaded, or because PPP was not
included in the kernel configuration. If PPP was included as a
module, try `/sbin/modprobe -v ppp'. If that fails, check that
ppp.o exists in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/net.
See README.linux file in the ppp distribution for more details.
[root@v ~]# modprobe -v ppp
FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.1.18.el5.028stab060.2/modules.dep: No such file or directory
And when I check for the availability of the encryption module "MPPE", I got the same result:
[root@v ~]# modprobe mppe
FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.1.18.el5.028stab060.2/modules.dep: No such file or directory
Openswan complains about some missing kernel modules too. So what do I do? Do I tell the provider to enable these modules? Do they normally do that? Will the host node require a reboot after having done that?
What modules are required for Poptop and Openswan? And, do I need to tell them to re-enable these modules every time I rebuild my OS?
What do you know of XMPP protocol?
Hqhost.net provides technical support via XMPP protocol aka Jabber for their clients.
i have a dedicated server
i install CSF ( firewall )
CSF give me Security Warning ( Check SSHv1 is disabled )
CSF Note : You should disable SSHv1 by editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config and setting: Protocol 2
How i can disable SSHv1 and set protocol 2?
how to set-up SMPP server for premium SMS purposes.
I got technical descriptions from mobile operators which say that it will work using TCP/IP connections and my server must support SMPP protocol.
How do I make my server to support SMPP protocol?
smsforum.net provides some APIs, test tools for download:
[url]
pear.php.net provides
1. Net_SMPP: SMPP v3.4 protocol implementation
2. Net_SMPP_Client: SMPP v3.4 client
It looks like this: my client sends SMS to the premium SMS number. Mobile operator makes connection to my server and transfers the content of this SMS. My server writes information to MySQL and returns answer depending of the SMS content. Mobile operator returns SMS to the user which contains information generated by my server.
I am getting lost. I don't understand what I have to install to make al this possible.
I'm tired of our current method for doing this. Is there a program out there that can do IP management aross multiple subnets and many thousands of IP's?? I cant seem to find any that either dont cost an arm and a leg, or is just software. All the ones I find tend to be appliances, which isnt what I want.

I tried also to run it manually but there is an error.Command:

I'm looking for a relatively cheap shared host, but I'm having trouble finding one with SSH/SFTP transfers. Everyone has FTP, but my concern is that FTP itself is not secure. I was reminded of this recently: http://www.43folders.com/2008/07/14/dump-ftp. Wikipedia documents this as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ftp#Security_problems. So with FTP, my passwords would be transmitted in the clear. (If I'm wrong, please correct me!)
I've been looking at Godaddy or 1&1*. 1&1 has a plan with SSH access that's about twice the cost of the plan I'm looking at. I'm not sure it's worth double the cost.
I'm to the point where I think I've overthought the variety of hosts, but in my estimation it's an important feature. Does anyone (dis)agree that it's important? Any other ideas of hosts?
*I was looking seriously at Bluehost also until I read some of their recent shenanigans here; thanks to everyone here for discussing their problems!
Also, to avoid the inevitable question of what I'm looking for in a host:
100 GB of space
1000 GB of bandwidth/month
Linux-based server
Apache server
10 MySQL databases
PHP (preferably 5)
Python support
Some sort of control panel interface
Good support reputation, preferably ticket-based and with chat support
Automated or easy Wordpress installation would certainly be nice.
My new router ZyWall USG 300 supports IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP for VPN protocol.
I don't know which protocol to choose! IPsec afaik is more compatible (windows supports natively), altough less secure. OpenVPN is more "friendly" to configure.
"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"
I upgraded from MySQL 4 to 5 and everything was fine for about a week. On Monday, I get the error above. From what I've read, this is the oldpassword/new password hash error that I can fix in about 2 minutes on my server. However, this is on a Parcom server, and Parcom has been sloooowww to react.
Can anyone think of another reason why this would be coming up? It's running fine on 3 other PCs that I run as a backup. I've dropped the database twice and rebuilt it twice, still with the same error. Ditto for the user/pass.
We are hosting a Git server (using Gitolite v3). Our users are interacting with git over an https connection. Here's the relevant versions of software:
Apache 2.4.6
OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)
git version 1.8.5.3 (Server Side)
git version 1.9.2.msysgit.0 (Client Side)
Users sometimes encounter an SSL error message when attempting to run git commands that talk to the server (e.g. clone, push, pull). The error message is "Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to servername:443". Users can usually simply try the command again, and it will then work successfully.
I've managed to capture a bit more output by setting the GIT_CURL_VERBOSE flag, see output below.
Code:
* Couldn't find host servername in the _netrc file; using defaults
* Adding handle: conn: 0x2587c40
* Adding handle: send: 0
* Adding handle: recv: 0
* Curl_addHandleToPipeline: length: 1
