Installation and Upgrades / Re: Zentyal 4 Exchange Server on VPS | confused about Network Settings

« on: January 04, 2015, 02:01:46 pm »

Now  I get stuck at the DNS -- when I ENABLE DNS -- the Webadmin gui gives "504 Gateway Times-out" while I CAN STILL SSH
What can be the problem ?

Well,
I solved network thing... was rather funny. After you set the Network interface to your Public IP and Enable Network module, you will be locked up (being on a single IP/NIC). All you have to do is reboot the server/VPS to regain control.

I was restlessly wiping off the VPS after the lockup... somethings are ridiculously easy to overlook.

Further testing the next things....

Sorry,
had been out of touch and I'm back towards this exercise. I did make an Accept rule yet I get locked out at the moment I configure an IP address on the Network interface!

No, I can't SSH in... that is the problem, I get locked out.
I have to wash the VPS, and install zentyal all over again, which eats up 10-15 mins everytime.

any remedies ?

Hi royceb,

You are right about the firewall getting me locked up. However I have 2 different VPS's from different providers, the behavior is different.
On VPS1 I just put the Public IP 50.xxx.xxx.xx4/255.255.255.0 on the NIC which is my public IP and the network gets enabled. Interesteingly, I have all modules set to "ON" on this Vps with just Firewall being OFF.

on the second VPS2 (the problem one here), I could put 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx5/255.255.255.0 and enable the newtork, however, the moment I was Mail and other modules to set on, they push the firewall to be SET ON and I'm locked out.

Can you explain the different behaviour of Zentyal on these 2 VPSs?  I sincerely think its a small thing but I'm not able to tackle it.

Installation and Upgrades / Zentyal 4 Exchange Server on VPS | confused about Network Settings

« on: November 28, 2014, 01:20:19 pm »

http://scavansystems.com/test/zentyal4/Zentyal-install-log.htm
I'm installing Zentyal 4 to be an Openchange/sogo server for hosting around 200 mailboxes spread across 3-4 different domains.

I've been struggling What to set in the network settings, I read many posts about this but all end up incomplete, can't guess if they could resolve or not their issues.

Will try to put up as straight, pardon my ignorance as I'm new to all this and learning fast.

1.   I have a 6GB/300GB VPS with 2 IPv4 Addresses. Installed Ubuntu 14.04 minimal
2.   If I IFCONFIG My server it outputs (real IPs removed)

venet0:0  Link   inet addr:2xx.1xx.1xx.xx5  P-t-P: 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx5  Bcast: 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx5  Mask:255.255.255.255

venet0:1  Link  inet addr: 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx6  P-t-P: 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx6  Bcast: 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx6  Mask:255.255.255.255

3.   I install Zentyal, login to webadmin Choose Mail and Groupware only  install
4.   Skip Network configuration & configure interfaces
 

 

5.   Put a domain name for my server--> Next
 

6.   I land in my Dashboard,  I see Network in disabled. I presume I need Network interface/IPs set, DNS service installed and running to enable OpenChange to work properly.
Here onwards I seek some help in what do I put in my network configuration.

If I put 2xx.1xx.1xx.xx5  /255.255.255.0 to my venet0 and press save changes, I’m locked out of my box, and can’t even SSH. I read amnay have this problem, but no thread posted a resolution clearly.

Can you please help me resolve this very first step? I ask questions in the picture below for a better understanding.

 


Thanks alot...

Resolved it -- loos like a known bug on deb/ubu systems.

had to use :

Code: [Select]

# apt-get --reinstall install bsdutils
and then proceed with # apt-get install zentyal
