What Is The Keepalived Iptables Port?

hi guys, ive altered the numbers for security but can someone tell me which one of these is my private ip address for this particular computer? im troubleshooting port forwarding and i want to make sure i have the right private ip address. i know the public one already. i used ifconfig to print this out. there are so many addresses that im not sure which is my private one for this particular computer. thanks

Hello

I have problem with creating pptp connection on my centos vps.
VPS is under OpenVZ, so in customer panel i enabled TUN/TAP, PPP and IPSEC.

On my centos 6.5 vps i made changes based on this tutorial
http://www.zedt.eu/tech/linux/settin...os-openvz-vps/

and on windows 7 this
http://www.howtogeek.com/51237/setti...ver-on-debian/

And now, windows 7 is giving me 807 error.

Is this iptables rules are correct ?
Code:

iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --dport 1723 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT --to-source [VPS's IP]
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -o venet0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -i venet0 -o ppp0 -j ACCEPT

I have no ppp0 interface, and i have additionally vnet0:0 with external ip, and gre0 and gretap0 interfaces.

So ifconfig -a shows:
Code:

[root@vps ~]# ifconfig -a

So is vnet0 should be vnet0:0 ?
And what should be instead of ppp0 interface ?

Hi,
i'm new in kali linux.
i have an issue with the wifi connections.
installing the newwst version of kali from the official website on virtual box.
plug the USB wireless adapter (TP-LINK).
also, i noticed wlan0 on #ifconfig command.
on the network setting configure NAT (also tried with NAT bridged)

my problem is that - i cannot see any wireless networks.
i followed few guides from youtube and here but with no luck.
it show me that i'm wired connected.
i attached screenshot bellow.
please kindly assist me.


additional information:
#airmon-ng start wlan0
when i type #ifconfig, i saw that wlan0 changed to wlan0mon
and with#airodump-ng command on wlan0mon i didn't see any wireless network as well

Hi.
This is the first time I need to do this. New to Linux... :-)

I need to have two Ethernet connections in my laptop working. Its Ethernet RJ-45 jack works fine. I had to get a new Trendnet USB/Ethernet adapter for the second connection. After I connected it for the first time to my laptop having Fedora 15, I get:

The first connection is em1 and working fine, but I never see a second ethx interface. I figured I'm missing the driver for it. So, I went to the read me file from the cd, where these files a
- asix.h
- ax88179_178a.c
- Makefile
- readme

The readme instructions for Linux say: you need the kernel sources installed on the machine. Make sure the version of the running kernel must match the installed kernel sources.

1. What are kernel sources and how I can download them for this installation? Please, keep in mind I do not know Linux. This is my first time doing more than just the very basics.
The instructions are called "ASIX AX88179_178A USB 3.0/2.0 Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter Driver Compilation & Configuration on Linux."

My kernel is 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686.PAE

I have no idea how to start.
Thank you!!!

I am totally new to Linux. However, considering the many advantages of the operationg comparing to other OS, i have decided to go ahead with using MINT Rebacca which is the latest version. Initially for some time i did not have any issues in getting my internet connecton. However, for the last one week I am unable to connect through. The results of various terminal commands i applied is given below with a sincere trust somebody would be there to help me out.

Dear Friends ,

One of My linux server , I have 4 NIC card . I plugged a network cable one of NIC card . Now How can I understand which interface (eth0 or eth1 or eth2 or eth3) is connected with the cable ?

Which command I need to use to find it ?


My second question is :
using 'ethtool ' output I got a line : "Link detected : yes"
what does it means ?

"yum update" command is not working.
IP information and relevant details below:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the error message :
yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks


One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
packages for the previous distribution release still work).

3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then
just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use
--enablerepo for temporary usage:

yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>

4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
compromise:

yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7/x86_64

Steps taken so far :
1. Change to google DNS -->
2. Edited the CentOS-Base.repo file -->
3. Restarted network services -->

Literally I had search all over the place, till now i could not fix the issue.
Appreciate if someone come forward and help me to rectify this issue.

I'm running VMWare for school. I need to get Fedora 17 to access the internet through the VM for just two assignments and then I can ignore the existence of Linux until I attempt the NOS120 class again. I have been able to get CentOS and every version of Windows online without an issue.

I've tried NAT, I've tried Bridged, I even pushed the Lan Segment, Host Only, and Custom radio buttons just for fun. I know the protocol here is to post a wiki link to a 500 page thread about the essence of the Linux experience. I even opened those and tried to follow along. Then I would try to do the same thing and nothing matched.

If anyone can tell me how to open Konsole on Centos that would be great as well. It might get me one step further. Also, if you guys ever try to work on your own cars and come to a forum that I frequent I promise not to tell you to read the Factory Service Manual instead of just telling you how to unscrew the oil cap. I promise. Especially if you have a Honda or Acura. I will even tell you all of the steps to reset your Maintenance indicator light.

Here is my ifconfig info:
eth0: flags=4099<UP,Broadcast,Multicast> mtu 1500

I am currently running a Minimal version of Centos 6.6 Ive searched all over the internet to see if anyone has seen this problem before. I can do a iwlist scan wlan0 and see my AP but it will not connect. I have encryption turned off. Ive tried to use a static and DHCP address in the ifcfg-wlan0 file. I used a laptop to verify that I am able to connecto to my AP and get an IP address so I know the AP is functioning properly.

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Does it make any difference where a simlink is performed? Will a simlink be global when done in root or /root? Will the simlink be recognized by all users when done in root or /root?

Thanks.
