I can see what works. My question is really is this the way things are supposed to be set up when one has private IP4 hosts on the same network segments as public IP4 hosts? Is there any way to configure the gateway so that it only requires one internal address [216.185.71.1] and can still route 192.168.6.0 addresses so that they stay on the LAN segment? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

You could create an iptables chain specifically for those needing SSH access. For a boat load of customers though this may not scale well.

[CentOS] Supermicro Boot Failures with DVD Centos 6.2
Eve.8ryone, I have had a SuperMicro machine running Centos 5.8 that had been progressively updated with yum-cron from a 5.0 CD install. I upgraded the SuperMicro with more memory, switched out the CD with a DVD and tried to boot to the Centos x64 6.2 dvd. My plan was to test the memory before I added the hard drives, but I could not I could not get the machine to boot from the disc. I also tried some Fedora install discs as well as LiveFedora and the machine would still not boot. I could get it to boot with a dreaded Microsoft install disc. We also updated the bios with the latest version and this did not make a difference. We have not tried to use these disks with the hard drives installed yet because we were in the process of just testing the memory. Has anyone had this problem with SuperMicro's. Is the problem as simple as a requirement to have a hard disc installed. Your help would be appreciated.

[CentOS] Phpmyadmin access: Was RE: phpmyadmin location
Hello, It is interesting how my thread took off. Anyway, I found the config files, the my.conf file for mysql and the phpMyAdmin.conf file. However, I cannot access it from the same linux box, using localhost, or any of the systems in my local network. I found a tutorial online and it was aimed at a local network because the tutorial had one opening it up to accept connections from any ip and it didn't get into securing it with SSL. Even after following that, I still got the message that I do not have permission to access the directory where phpmyadmin is. I did wget and moved it to my apache server document root. So, my goals are twofold, and in the order listed. 1) First, I'd like to have a box on my network that I can SSH to and run applications that require mysql db, eg. drupal, owncloud, and some php mvc frameworks. This could be from my local network, e.g. 192.168.0.6 accessing the Centos box at 192.168.0.4 2) Then, I want to access it using a domain, which I have that currently points to the machine. I did this previously and was accessing the phpmyadmin from the domain that I had purchased and using a dynamic IP service, I have it pointing to my network. At this point, I don't have the means to offer a server for friends and family, or others. What is difficult is the phpmyadmin issue and the mysql db. I took one course on Lynda.com that dealt with this topic and it used Ubuntu which has a wizard that lets you setup the username/pw for the db and phpmyadmin. With Centos, I just used yum to download mysql and I used wget to get phpmyadmin. I have not been able to find the default username and password when it is installed in this fashion. I have the root account which I think by default is without a password. I just don't know how to access the phpmyadmin directory. It is possible to just create a db using the command line but I'd like to figure the phpmyadmin access issue out.

Joe Eubank is helping me on this project, and he just sent me a note that he was able to get Centos to boot from a usb stick so we may be able to bypass our problem. I'll keep everyone informed so others can benefit from our trial and error. Greg ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
