To overcome this you can do:

echo -n > /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
echo -n > /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules

Although the connection will be established you won’t have any routes.

1. Download setacl from http://setacl.sourceforge.net
2. run setacl -on openvpnservice -ot srv -actn ace -ace “n:Benutzer;p:start_stop”
3. by going to Computer/right click/maintenance/user and groups add the desired user to the group Networkconfiguration-Operators (Netwerkkonfigurations-Operatoren)
4. in the .ovpn configuration file add the lines
   route-method exe
   route-delay 2
5. disable the service openvpngui via msconfig
6. change the startlink for OpenVPN-GUI to be run as Administratior

Like apache on http://hiserver and Tomcat on http://hiserver:8080

Now you want to accces i.e. http://hiserver:8080/baula through apache with http://hiserver/baula

Install mod_jk with

apt-get install libapache2-mod-jk

and enable the module with

a2enmod jk

create the file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/jk.conf

JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/workers.properties

JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log

JkLogLevel error

create the file /etc/apache2/workers.properties (change the content to your needs)

workers.tomcat_home=/opt/baula/tomcat
workers.java_home=/usr/lib/java
ps=/
worker.list=mainworker
worker.mainworker.type=ajp13
worker.mainworker.port=8009
worker.mainworker.cachesize=20

edit i.e. /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and place the following between the <VirtualHost> tags

JKMount /baula* mainworker

Now restart Apache and http://hiserver/baula should show the content of http://hiserver:8080/baula

1. When doing a backup of a host whose data is mounted using a nfs share then you have to modify the TarClientCmd.
   Instead of
   $sshPath -q -x -n -l root $host env LC_ALL=C $tarPath -c -v -f – -C $shareName+ –totals
   use
   env LC_ALL=C $tarPath -c -v -f – -C $shareName+ –totals
   because ssh doesn’t work when accessing local directories.
2. The part env LC_ALL=C is important if you work with a non english locale. Because otherwise the backup gets done but in the end BackuppPc can’t check the result.
3. To avoid all sorts of access restrictions run tar as root like
   env LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/sudo $tarPath -c -v -f – -C $shareName+ –totals
   To make this work start  visudo and add the line
   backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/tar
   

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install simple-scan

Well actually not really a problem. (Except if you need to use Windows 7) I located the settings in the registry exported them into a .reg file and a small .cmd batch job should append a user specific setting and start the program.
The only problem is that a line like
echo pfrdlpfrz=c:\blabla\pfrz>>export.reg
resulted in a new line in export.reg with CHINESE CHARACTERS !!!!

But if you take the content of the export.reg and copy it into a NEW file and save it as export.reg then everything works.

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE !!!!!

Ok, it’s actually only a small problem, but PLEASE tell me the concept behind this – or – oh I understand – there is no concept…..

Therefore a
route add -net 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 192.168.10.2
does the job.
In order to make that route permanent the above line has to be added to /etc/rc.d/rc.netaddress.up also.

Now every workstation on the local network is capable of accessing the headquarter’s network by IP address. But accessing the headquarter’s network by hostname does NOT work.
The reason is that every DNS request to the domain .headquarter.group gets transferred to the public DNS by IPCop and .group is no valid public TLD.

Using IPCop’s DNS1 / DNS2 settings does not work because the multiple DNS only get asked in case the previous one is unaccessible.

What has to be done is to tell IPCop that he has to use a different DNS once a request concerning .headquarter.group arrives.

IPCop’s DNS stuff gets handled by dnsmasq and  is started either by /etc/rc.d/rc.netaddress.up or /etc/rc.d/rc.updatered .

man dnsmasq tells us that the –server option is our friend.
Everything we have to do is to add
–server=/headquarter.group/172.16.1.100
to the startup scripts.
This means that in case we ask for a address on the .headquarter.group network then (and only then) the DNS request should go to 172.16.1.100

In /etc/rc.d/rc.updatered there are two lines starting /usr/bin/dnsmasq where we add the –server option at the end.

# –min-port=4096 is an arbitary value that should work for all
# It should be set to the value+1 of the higest port you may drop in custom
# rules, leaving upper range to randomized ports for request to dns server
DOMopt=”"
[ "$DOMAIN_NAME_GREEN" ] && DOMopt=”-s $DOMAIN_NAME_GREEN”
if [ -e "/var/ipcop/red/dial-on-demand" -a "$DIALONDEMANDDNS" == "on" -a ! -e "/var/ipcop/red/active" ]; then
/usr/sbin/dnsmasq -l /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases $DOMopt -r /var/ipcop/ppp/fake-resolv.conf –min-port=4096 –server=/headquarter.group/172.16.1.100
else
/usr/sbin/dnsmasq -l /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases $DOMopt -r /var/ipcop/red/resolv.conf –min-port=4096 –server=/headquarter.group/172.16.1.100
fi
unset DOMopt

And in /etc/rc.d/rc.netaddress.up we add the –server option to the line dealing with OPT_DNSMASQ

# Start DNSMASQ with defaults settings to resolve names defined in /etc/hosts
# Start in any cases : even if rc.red start fail, we still want be able to use /etc/hosts names
OPT_DNSMASQ=”-l /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases –server=/headquarter.group/172.16.1.100″

After restarting the red interface or doing a power cycle everthing should work.

You can solve this by linking your ~/.gvfs directory to the bookmarks in nautilus.

1. Locate the .gvfs directory in your home directory (ctrl-h displays the hidden entries)
2. Right click on .gvfs and make a link.
3. Rename the “Link to .gvfs” to something like “Network”
4. Drag the entry from above to your bookmarks

You could omit steps 2 and 3 but you would end up with a not very descruptive link called .gvfs

The indeed _very_ strange solution is to turn off LEGACY FLOPPY SUPPORT in the BIOS setup. If you don’t have such a setting (i.e like my Dell Precision T3400) and don’t have any floppy drive either then try deactivating everything that refers to floppy drives in the BIOS setup.

export i=0;
while [[ $((++i)) -le 254 ]];
do ping -c1 -w1 192.168.0.$i | grep ttl | cut -d " " -f4 | cut -d ":" -f1;
done;
