=== miguel is now known as Guest40320 [04:11] How to configure static ip after fresh Ubuntu 18.04 server install? [04:12] all tutorial refer to editing `50-cloud-init.yaml` - but comments in that file clearly say: # This file is generated from information provided by [04:12] # the datasource. Changes to it will not persist across an instance. [04:13] If there is no datasource continuing to manage that file, editing it is safe. [04:13] My current host is configured in such a manner. [04:15] whislock, what does it mean - datasource? [04:16] i've just done a fresh install using usb drive - what's a datasource in this context? [04:17] I'd suggest reading up on cloud-init, it'll explain it better than me typing at length. [04:22] will do. thank you. changing file worked [04:23] whislock: this is the only stable version of Ubuntu Server that will run on my system Welcome to Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-24-generic i686) no aacraid issue. It stems all the way back to CentOS 5 on Kernel 2.6 === Me4502 is now known as Guest34911 === jelly is now known as yllej === yllej is now known as hurtigbuffer === hurtigbuffer is now known as jelly [16:04] i think im going mad [16:07] i have 3 different ports port forwarded to 3 different ubuntu boxes, but only one of them works, i can still connect to the boxes locally [16:09] port forwarding with what_ [16:09] ? [16:09] a asus n66u [16:10] I guess the asus is the problem, then [16:10] i know it works with multiple hosts, i have several other ports forwarded and working [16:11] which port/protocol? [16:11] just set all of it as both [16:11] you can't forward the same port to different machines, you know [16:11] different ports [16:12] well, this channel is about ubuntu, not asus [16:13] xwct: you'll need multiple external ips [16:13] cryptodan_mobile: depending on what you want [16:13] what? i have 3 different hosts with different ports open right now [16:14] all with one ip [16:14] xwct: if you telnet into those ports - what do you get? [16:15] xwct: what ports [16:16] 41414, 42424 works [16:16] so i just put the host with 41414 into dmz, its still nothing [16:16] You can do that [16:20] Go to an online port scanning service and see if it finds it [16:21] What are the ports? [16:22] 41414 and 42424, the host with 41414 is currently in dmz and is still refusing connections [16:22] not lan connections though [16:23] is the request ever getting to the server sitting at 41414? [16:24] how do i check for that? [16:25] tcpdump would do the trick [16:30] xwct: tcpdump or better - tshark [16:31] tshark is the cli version of wireshark - more versatile [16:31] than tcpdump [16:33] im not getting any traffic through to it [16:33] then the router is the problem [16:33] 1. give it a reboot [16:33] or [16:34] 0. doublecheck the config [16:34] ive already rebooted and upgraded the firmware on it [16:34] 2. install ddwrt or something on it [16:34] did it work before the firmware upgrade? [16:34] nope [16:34] only the two ports im trying to open now refuse to work [16:35] check the logs [16:35] if you don't have any - setup syslog to your home machine or server [16:37] checked firewall on the servers? [16:37] jdr: tshark should see the traffic even with the firewall blocking it [16:37] true [16:38] getting tshark now well see [16:38] tshark -i -f "port 1234" [16:38] or something like it [16:42] double check the port forwarding setup. I've done some dumb shit in my day. Wrong IP, or port. [16:44] its the wierdest thing, this one works just fine [16:44] https://i.imgur.com/8jLBdST.png [16:45] but these two refuse to work even in dmz https://i.imgur.com/j5O3rtf.png [16:46] These ports arent blocked by your ISP are they? [16:46] nope [16:47] pretty much the wild west as far as ports go with my isp [16:47] nice. [16:47] What is the router [16:47] asus n66u with asuswrt-merlin [16:49] How hard would it be to just start over with a fresh/default config on the router? [16:51] not much, just gotta screenshot the ports and reset it [16:54] Are the IPS static on the machines [17:08] and now it works [17:09] stupid [17:09] jdr, RoyK thanks for the help === xwct_ is now known as xwct [17:09] what was it? [17:09] idk [17:10] it just worked when i reset to factory defaults and added the forwards again [17:12] Good deal then. [17:15] reset sledge > reboot hammer [17:15] haha === giraffe is now known as Guest26876
