NTP Synchronization Failed

Hi Guys,

I have set up chrony with local clock, but when I issue chronyc tracking the leap status shows its not synchronised

[root@redhat_1 ~]# chronyc tracking
Reference ID : 127.127.1.1 ()
Stratum : 10
Ref time (UTC) : Sat Jan 10 00:29:47 2015
System time : 0.000000000 seconds fast of NTP time
Last offset : 0.000000000 seconds
RMS offset : 0.000000000 seconds
Frequency : 0.000 ppm fast
Residual freq : 0.000 ppm
Skew : 0.000 ppm
Root delay : 0.000000 seconds
Root dispersion : 0.000001 seconds
Update interval : 0.0 seconds
Leap status : Not synchronised

I edited the chrony.conf file and added " server localhost iburst" and uncommented the "local stratum 10 " to enable sync with local time source.

Let me know how to sync this with my local server time.

With regards,
Gopinath.

Hi all

This is bothering me too much, please tell me how to change IP address of remote machine while using ssh successfully.

I follow these steps:
1. connect to remote server using 'ssh root@server'
2. Edit '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0' file
3. issue 'service network restart' command... (at this point ssh connection gets hanged)
4. Break from hanged ssh connection (<ENTER>~.)
5. Wait for some time to let service restart
6. Then finally, ssh with new ip address.

All is fine, but last time, i did something wrong while assigning new IP address, and after service restart, remote server didn't get new ip address - and now i cant connect to remote server.

Fortunately, i had a friend there, who helped me correct the problem so that i can connect again.

But what to do when there is no one to help? Is there other way i should approach this problem?

Thanks

Hi All,

Please help me. I'm following the book - ' DNS and BIND, 5th Ed By Paul Albitz, Cricket Liu '. This RNDC is driving me crazy. I spent all day trying to configure rndc. Tried every possible combination in config files, but I just cant control remote server. Tried many tutorials from google, nothing helped. LQ is my last hope.

So, my story goes like this...

Hello,
I am using my raspberry pi with Linux 3.18+ installed. I changed the default ssh port from 22 to 16022. This is my sshd_config file:
Code:

# Package generated configuration file
# See the sshd_config(5) manpage for details

# What ports, IPs and protocols we listen for
#Port 22
Port 16022
# Use these options to restrict which interfaces/protocols sshd will bind to
#ListenAddress ::
#ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
Protocol 2

PAM auth is disabled and I only login using password. Now, I checked the authentication log file: /var/log/auth.log. This is a snippet of what it contains:
Quote:

May 8 02:01:41 raspberrypi sshd[24468]: Accepted password for pi from 50.153.110.150 port 30862 ssh2
How is this possible? Why is it showing these random ports for ssh?

This is what 'sudo netstat -nlp' gives:

Plus, I am accessing my machine from outside my home network. My router is configured to block all ports, except 16022, whose tcp traffic is forwarded to my raspberry pi. So I don't understand why the log file has these weird ports listed.

hi all

I am learning systemd and how to add new services as part of the LFS201 course and I have a question about the services:
Code:

Lab 4.2: Adding a New Startup Service with systemd
For example a very minimal file named
/etc/systemd/system/fake2.service:
[Unit]
Description=fake2
After=network.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/echo I am starting the fake2 service
ExecStop=/bin/echo I am stopping the fake2 service
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Code:

root@ubuntu:/etc/systemd/system# systemctl start fake.service
root@ubuntu:/etc/systemd/system# systemctl status fake.service
 fake.service - fake
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/fake.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)

May 16 11:41:05 ubuntu systemd[1]: Started fake.
May 16 11:41:05 ubuntu systemd[1]: Starting fake...
May 16 11:41:05 ubuntu echo[1798]: I am starting the fake2 service
May 16 11:41:05 ubuntu echo[1800]: I am stopping the fake2 service
root@ubuntu:/etc/systemd/system# ps aux | grep fake*
root      1809  0.0  0.0  13688  2272 pts/8    S+   11:41   0:00 grep --color=auto fake.service
root@ubuntu:/etc/systemd/system#

as you can see the fake2 service is really only two lines. And when I grep for the service via ps I can't fine it. I guess it is because it has finished running. I am wondering how can I change it so that I can keep it running?

thanks

I created 3 test machine and made them into cluster.
On Virtual
"Virtual Machine Manager 0.9.0"
Machines them selves are CentOS 5.11.

Code:

<cluster name="mycluster" config_version="3">

     <clusternode name="two" nodeid="2">
         <fence>
         </fence>
     </clusternode>
     <clusternode name="three" nodeid="3">
         <fence>
         </fence>
     </clusternode>
   </clusternodes>
   <fencedevices>
   </fencedevices>
   <rm>

Thank you.

Centos 6.5

I ran into an interesting problem (on reddit) that I figured I could solve, but I have not been able to. Its simple,.. I added 'exit 0' to /root/.bashrc, and now I am trying to log in via ssh.

Everytime I do, it immediately exits when it runs the .bash_profile, which sources .bashrc, (which is immediate upon 'logging in')

I've tried:

Code:

ssh root@192.168.1.50 -t vim
vim scp://192.168.1.50/.bashrc
vim scp://192.168.1.50/root/.bashrc
ssh root@192.168.1.50 bash --norc
ssh root@192.168.1.50 /bin/bash --norc --noprofile
ssh -T root@192.168.1.50 "mv /root/.bashrc /root/.bashRC"
scp .bashrc root@192.168.1.50:/root/
ssh root@192.168.1.50 /bin/bash --norc --noprofile -vvvvvvvvvv
ssh -vvvvvv root@192.168.1.50 /bin/bash --norc --noprofile
ssh -vvvvvv root@192.168.1.50 /bin/mv /root/.bashrc /root/.bashRC
ssh -t -t root@192.168.1.50 << EOF
mv /root/.bashrc /root/.bashRC
EOF
ssh -t -t root@192.168.1.50 --norc << EOF
echo HELLO > /root/.bashrc
EOF
ssh -tv root@192.168.1.50 rm .bashrc

So,.. I am unable to get back into the system (as root, no other users exist) after adding 'exit 0' to .bashrc

Anyone feel like explaining why all of these failed (aside from saying SSH interactive logins run the .bash_profile/.bashrc files) or, offering a suggestion that works? Seems like if you have the root password, you should be allowed to modify the login process... since... you know... you are root.

I am using phpVirtualBox, and everything is working perfectly. Then something changes, and I get the following error:
Code:

Could not connect to host (http://127.0.0.1:18083/)

I reboot the physical machine, or execute /etc/init.d/vboxweb-service restart, and then everything works for a while.

According to http://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualb...onnect-to-host, there are three reasons why this will happen.
Quote:
This indicates that phpVirtualBox could not connect to the vboxwebsrv server. Either the location setting in config.php is wrong, vboxwebsrv is not running on the VirtualBox host, or SELinux is blocking access to vboxwebsrv. If you have SELinux enabled
As shown below, it is not reason 2 or 3.

Code:

[root@devserver ~]# service vboxweb-service status
Checking for VBox Web Service ...running
[root@devserver ~]# service vboxdrv status
VirtualBox kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp, vboxpci) are loaded.
[root@devserver ~]# service vboxautostart-service status
Usage: /etc/init.d/vboxautostart-service {start|stop}
[root@devserver ~]# service  vboxballoonctrl-service status
Checking for VBox watchdog service ...not running
[root@devserver ~]# sestatus
SELinux status:                 enabled
SELinuxfs mount:                /selinux
Current mode:                   permissive
Mode from config file:          permissive
Policy version:                 24
Policy from config file:        targeted
[root@devserver ~]#

Thus it must be that the location setting in config.php is wrong. config.php has the following default settings, and I left them as is.

Code:

/* SOAP URL of vboxwebsrv (not phpVirtualBox's URL) */
var $location = 'http://127.0.0.1:18083/';
...
// Host / ip to use for console connections
#var $consoleHost = '192.168.1.40';

According to http://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualb...-configuration, "If VirtualBox and phpVirtualBox are on the same physical host, you may leave the $location setting alone". VirtualBox and phpVirtualBox are definitely on the same physical machine.

Please provide recommendations.

Hello,
I can't get nfsd start at boot on openwrt linux.

I followed this guide:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/nfs.server

but when I turn the computer on:

Code:

root@OpenWrt:~# showmount -e localhost
clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered

Code:

but if I do
Code:

so it works well, but I look at dmesg

I tried several times
Code:

root@OpenWrt:~# /etc/init.d/portmap enable
root@OpenWrt:~# /etc/init.d/nfsd  enable

and reboot but, again, I have to start nfsd manually after every reboot.

What am I doing wrong? On Attitude Adjustment I never had any issue.

Please help!

I havent found out any straight-to-the-point answear yet on the net about how often a root dns server is queried hence i thought i should ask here.

When i use "dig +trace" i notice that my queries allways start from the root "." servers. However, is this also happening with, lets say, a recursive (resolver) dns server?

For example, lets assume that i use at home google's dns servers (8.8.8.8). Is google dns server will indeed first head to the root "." dns server when i query for example.net?

Thanks
