Multiple IP vs Same IP multiple port for virtual hosts

Anyone have any recommendations or experience in setting up a virtual host that has a listener for each site?
The issue is when I have to restart a single site, I have to restart them all, because they are installed under the same listener/server.
I need a setup where I can install and manage each website (on the same box) on it's own listener/server instance so re-starting one site doesn't effect another.

Add a service in the Network preference pane. Select the network interface you want; e.g., Ethernet. Configure as desired. Apply and test.

Need to setup monitoring aon multiple ports for IDS

I have a cisco 3845. I need to need to setup monitoring aon multiple ports for IDS on 2 ports. How do I do this.
Also,
Is there a way to make ports on the switch portion act like hubs.
Thanks

I assume that you are referring to the Ethernet Switch Module in the 3845. If so it should support SPAN. Here is a SPAN configurations guide:

Configuring default web apps for virtual hosts

Hi,
This posting is meant save time for anyone trying to specify a default web app
for each of their virtual hosts (as opposed to specifying a default web app for
each of their wl servers). This applies to weblogic 6.1, on NT. (I haven't tried
this on other platforms).
If you are trying to use the admin console to do this, give up. It's not possible.
The "Virtual Host/Configuration" window lets you specify everything about that
vhost configuration EXCEPT a default web app. (The "Default Web Application" drop
down menu will always have only one option to choose from: "none").
Instead, shutdown your server, and edit your domain's config.xml file manually.
Attached is an example config file that specifies that the web app "kz" should
be the default web app for the vhost "wl.kz.com", and that the web app "kahuna"
should be the default web app for the vhost "www.kahuna.com".
Hope this helps,

Hi,
Is it possible to configure default web appls for virtual hosts
with Weblogic 6.0 on NT platform? I tried to configure the configure.xml as Brian
did, it doesnot work. I am just wondering if there's any other possible way to
do this.
Thanks.

Multiple port for one instance

hello there,
Here is my requirement...
If one of my master ldap went down for couple of hours and when i bring it up... all the arrowpoint traffic is routed immediately to this server and hence whatever changes happend in the secondary server was not showing up immediately in this primary master server. To avoid this issue.. can i use a different port for replication only and once the replication is completed , then i want to allow the client to access the main port.
Is it possible? Any idea? Thank you for anyone input.
SS

1. EITHER multi-home your network card so that it has multiple IP addresses
Launch each instance of ldap with the commandline option to bind this instance to a particular IP address
2. OR provide alternate ports for each instance of ldap
This is easier to do . However, it is not recommended for production systems. Usually used in development.
If the scenario is production environment use first method.
If it is a development environment try the second.
See the port properties. Check the ldap port settings.
NOTE: ldap has a known bug. To fix this get into sun site. This bug is fixed.
Thanks

Listen on multiple ports for smtp?

Traditionally, we've provided setup smtp to listen on an additional port to 25 for travellers who find themselves on an ISP which blocks that port. We used a line in master.cf like:
<newportnumber> inet n - y - - smtpdproxywrite unix - - n - 1 proxymap
This seems to make snow leopard's postfix unhappy. It also doesn't work. I'd be grateful if anybody could tell me:
* what is or where to look for info on setting up postfix to do multiple ports? I've tried Apple docs and found nothing and only old-style in postfix docs -- though I could be missing something obvious as always.
* is this the modern and preferred way to get around the blocked port 25 problem or is it better to do some fancy-schmancy port redirection eg at the firewall to map multiple ports on to port 25 for postfix?
thanks and allbests,

In the past I've used the following with great success. Add the following line to /etc/postfix/master.cf file:
2525 inet n - n - - smtpd
Stop and start the mail service. Then test with telnet to ensure that the port is responding. Sadly, this still appears to be the best way, sans the use of a VPN, to get around ISP blocking.
Obviously port 25 needs to be open to receive mail. But instead of opening additional port in the firewall, you could drive all users to VPN.
I just tested the above line in 10.6.1 and it is responding.
Hope this helps

Setting up multiple web sites (virtual hosting).

Dear members:
I am considering OS X Server for a personal project and would like some advice to help me decided what route to take.
My computer will soon be turned into a server hosting my web sites and some other services at my home office. I am thinking about OS X Server as I have done some research and found OS X to require quite a bit of work so that it can do virtual hosting.
How simple is it to configure virtual hosting in OS X Server ? I am considering the latest Leopard version in case it matters. I am not experienced and wish to employ an application that will simplify this process.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thank you,
Joseph Chamberlain

You could create local PAC file <http://findproxyforurl.com/pac_file_examples.html> where you can return multiple PROXY servers. You would create text file with your PAC script in it. Then specify System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Proxy -> Automatic Proxy Configuration, and click "Choose File".
If you choose to take BDAqua's advice and create multiple Network Locations, you can then use either
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy1"
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy2"
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy3"
or
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy1"
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy2"
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy3"
you can put them into a script of your choosing. Shell script, or Automator Run Shell Scirpt, or Applescirpt do shell script (or Perl, Python, Ruby, etc...)

Block All Ports for a Host

We are using BM 3.9 (no SP1 yet).
I'm trying to block a Windows Media Player stream. If I put the URL that WMP uses into a deny rule, the BM log shows the html page is forbidden, yet the media still comes through.
So I tried blocking all ports on the host. I put in a Deny rule that blocks All TCP&UDP on both the IP address and the host name. Yet, when I type the URL into WMP, I still get the stream. How do I block this with BM?
Incidentally, after All ports didn't work, I tried specifying ports 0-65535. But I got an error that that was an invalid range. It did let me use 1-65535, though.

Separate Wiki Data Stores for Virtual Hosts?

Is it possible to set different data stores to be used for the wikis associated with different sites (i.e. virtual hosts) on a Mac OS X Server (Snow Leopard)?
By default they are in "/Library/Collaboration/" and that is applied to ALL hosted sites.
My client would like a little more differentiation than that offered by user and/or group login.
Thanks in advance.
+*Geoff Heys*+

Ditto.
I noticed it when logged in as a user with permissions to a specific wiki on the server, and went to 'My Page', that updates from all the other wikis on the server are listed, in addition to the updates for the wiki I belong to. I can't get to them by clicking on the links, but they show up in the list. Makes it pretty hard to focus on your wiki, when you see updates from multiple other wikis listed.
It would seem like there must be a fix in the code for both the 'My Page' and the generic top-level '/groups', but I don't know the code structure well enough yet to figure out how/where to fix it.
Anyone else find a solution for this? I don't think I can roll out multiple domains/wikis on one server, if this behavior is present.

Mod_rewrite not working for virtual host nor .htaccess

I've been tearing my hair out trying to implement mod_rewrite on my Leopard Server. I have finally been able to get mod_rewrite to log what it does, but that has only shown that it DOES periodically respond to a /server_status request from the server itself, but any request to the virtual host (which is otherwise working) does not result in mod_rewrite being 'triggered.' I've tried all the usual suspects, in just about every permutation and combination:
1) .htaccess in all its guises and Override All;
2) RewriteEngine On;
3) http.conf, the virtual xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf;
4) Options All -Includes -ExecCGI +MultiViews -Indexes +FollowSymlinks;
5) other less credible ideas gleaned from the Apple discussions and the web.
If I had to summarise the effect, it's that
a) mod_rewrite is on (as shown by the regular /server_status entries in the rewrite.log);
b) xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf is read when the virtual host is turned on (because the site is active and can be turned off, at will);
c) any mod_rewrite and Options entries in the vistual host xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf seem to be being studiously ignored, even though the .conf file is being read and used.
This part of http.conf is what seems to turn on the logging:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine On
     RewriteLog /private/var/log/apache2/rewrite.log
     RewriteLogLevel 9
</IfModule>
Here's the section of xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf:
<Directory "/Library/WebServer/com.VirtualHostName">
     AllowOverride All
     <IfModule mod_dav.c>
          DAV Off
     </IfModule>
     Options All -Includes -ExecCGI +MultiViews -Indexes +FollowSymlinks
</Directory>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine On
     RewriteLog /private/var/log/apache2/rewrite.log
     RewriteLogLevel 9
     RewriteRule ^/Tom.html$ /Mary.html [R]
     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRACE
     RewriteRule .* - [F]
</IfModule>
This is a variant of the .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/Tom.html$ /MARY.html [R]
It makes no difference whether the RewriteBase is present in the .htaccess or the xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf, or both.
No amount of pass-though [PT] or redirect [R] has any effect, either.
I do have Lasso 8.5 installed, but the developer says that Lasso should have no effect on the proper functioning of mod_rewrite.
mod_rewrite is working (i.e. it's on, as shown by the /server_status entries in the log and that the log is being updated), but it is also not working (in that no matter what I put into xxxx_80_virtualhostname.com.conf and/or .htaccess, there is no entry in the rewrite.log nor in the system logs).
Hence, I'm stumped. Any suggestions would be very, very welcome.

Never mind. I discovered that Server had created several versions of the virtual host .conf file in the sites folder (I've no idea why, when, or how it would do that). They all had different numbers and so were well hidden within the dozens of other .conf files. Once I a) found the right .conf file for the virtual host, and b) deleted the rest from the sites folder, my mod_rewrite code worked fine.
Hence, if you find that mod_rewrite is working, but not for a particular virtual host, make darn sure that there are no errant .conf files for the domain and, if there are, that you're editing the correct one.

How do I configure Apache for Virtual Hosts?

This is whatI've done so far: I have a static IP. I have a registered domain name that points to this IP. I've made my sites in iWeb. Set up my computer for Personal Web Sharing. I've used Smultron to edit the httpd.conf files per this tutorial : http://www.macminicolo.net/videos/ServerVideo6.mov. Still no luck. I can't access the site from the internet.
Can anyone shed some light ?

Starting EHPI for virtual Host

Hi All,
Can you help me with how to start the EHPI with the virtual host name.
Thanks in Advance
Anthony

Hi,
The main thing in cluster is to use one Hostname during the Upgrade.
Please use the physical hostnames in the profiles also and the UPG
should run till the end.
The EHPI needs an instance named with the usual DVEBMGS format.
The upgrade
should run on the same host as the central instance.
Please check the SAP notes:
96317 Host names during R/3 upgrade, tips & tricks
962955 Use of virtual TCP/IP host names

DNS settings for virtual host 10.6 server

We have just gone through a rebranding exercise, i.e. the company name has changed from 'mycompany' to our 'ourcompany'.
For various reasons we have decided to not rename our complete setup, but rather add a virtual host for our mail server including a second primary DNS zone for the new domain 'ourcompany'.
We are hosting our website externally, however since we added the second primary DNS zone incl. an A record (www) pointing to our external website hosts IP for 'ourcompany', workstations on our LAN can no longer access the website.
Running DIG for 'www.ourcompany.com.au' results in the correct A record IP address being shown, but it is still not showing in any browser – we also made sure we emptied our caches.
Although we thought this should work relatively easily, we are now totally confused as to the additional primary zones general settings... currently we allow zone transfer and provide an entry in the nameserver section.
Any ideas as to what might be going on here would be greatly appreciated.

Mr. Hoffman,
Than you very much for your reply - unfortunately, despite studying and testing your advice (incl. wesbite) we seem to not get much further.
Please find our comments inserted below...

FWIW, both mycompany.com.au and ourcompany.com.au are real and registered domains; I'll presume they're not the domains you're migrating from or to. Accordingly, I'll use example.org for your old stuff, and example.com for your new stuff; the example domains are RFC-reserved for this usage.
Correct we are not using my bad example domains.
Each host should have one A record (and one AAAA record, if you have IPv6 active), and one of the more common errors in these migrations is setting up an A record for each new domain that might arrive; each host has one A (and possibly one AAAA) record, and that's the canonical name for that host. Externally, that'll probably be the latest name in any sequence (such as www.example.com), and all previous names (including www.example.org) will have CNAME entries.
To clarify do you mean the following: internally we should not have more than one A record for each host... i.e. one for example.org and one for example.com and presumably any other subdomains should be CNAME records?
2. externally we should change the A record for www.example.org to a CNAME record and create a new A record for www.example.com;
Internally (and here's why having a different domain inside is handy) use one of the old names; use example.org, for instance. This means you can use the public DNS services for the external web sites and resources; your internal DNS servers receive the requests for example.com hosts and go "duh, lemme ask somebody else for that", and that somebody else is the (public) DNS server your external DNS services for example.com hosts.
Exactly what we had initially done - basically we (naively) thought we could get away with only relying on external DNS translations... however that resulted in mail clients on our LAN loosing their connection every 5-10 minutes, thus we decided to setup another primary DNS zone which fixed that problem but created the other.
Please also note we have created a subdomain admin.example.com which properly resolves to the CMS backend - btw. from within this backend you can then preview the any page on the regular website with their non www. URLs.
Since the current setup resolves to the correct IP address I wonder if it could be a problem with the .htaccess rewrite rules the web developer has setup to remove the www. ... or is this too far fetched?
The usual trigger for not reaching the external A (or AAAA) records is either a stale cache on the particular client (for translations inside the Time To Live (TTL) values for the old DNS translations, or pending a local cache flush on each client), or (and this is more common) confusion over authoritative DNS servers; you have your internal DNS configured as authoritative for the new www.example.com domain, and also authoritative for the old www.example.org domain, and your external DNS is also authoritative for (probably) both domains. Internal requests get as far as the internal server, and get an authoritative translation (possibly being "no such host"), and don't go any further.
Safari & Firefox present with 'Server not found' errors.
So we are still stuck thus any further advice would be much appreciated.

Multiple Ports for one Content in CSS

Dear All,
We configure a CSS11506 (v5.2) and the enduser wants to setup only one content (vip address) to support multiple services (such as http, https and DNS).
Since, in the configuration, we can only set one port in content rule. Is there any method to setup this requirement? Or we only need to create several content with the same VIP but for different services port?
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Lawrence

take a look at the odcumentation regarding the way in which the css processes rules, you can have multiple rules with the same vip...just specify the separate tcp ports in each rule, making them layer 4 rules.
I would advise against an L3 rule, as there is an outstanding bug in the 5.00 and 5.03 releases regarding unexpected switch reboots when UDP hits a rule.

Multiple processes for a host instance on one server

Hi,
One of the prod environment server memory utilization is getting very high every few days. I searched a bit and found that there are many processes for "BTSNTSvc64.exe" in the task manager. Whenever we restart the host instance a new process is
getting created and the previous process is not getting killed.
This caused multiple processes in task manager and every process is occupying some memory. The process is actually not active but it is creating some bad sectors which is causing the Memory utlization to become high.
I am not able to kill the zombie processes either from Task manager. Server reboot is the option but wanted to know a permanent fix.
Can you please tell me the reason as to why this is happening and also the solution?

How many BizTalk Hosts do you have defined on the system? If you have multiple Hosts defined then you're likely to see one host instance associated with each of the hosts. Each host instance is a service and in the "Task Manager" - Processes you will
see multiple BTSNTSvc64.exe OR BTSNTSvc.exe * 32. This is OK is you have multiple host instances defined on your system (Services MMC will show you BizTalk Service BizTalk Group : BizTalk Host) and BizTalk Administration Console ->BizTalk Group ->Platform
Settings -> Host Instances will also show you the different host instances. Each instance is a multi threaded process running different aspects of the BizTalk Framework/Components. So each process will occupy memory if it is "started". All this is normal
behavior. If you're facing performance issues, you might want to ask the solution designer on their rationale for the number of hosts instances.
So when you stop the service, it does not stop? goes into a non-responsive state? and creates another instance?
Regards.

Opening spesific incoming and outgoing ports for game hosting for instance?

I have tried this for a little while now and can't really figure it out. Seems like you are required to get ip-adresse aswell, but in fact Battle.net for example doesn't have one. I know that it requires to open ports: 6112-6119, 116 and 118, but no specific ip. Please help figure this out! I got to be able to host a game. The game is Warcraft 3; Frozen Throne. If you know the exact answer please answer me at [email protected] I really need help at this.
Thanks!

The IP address required would be the one you assign the device that will be hosting Warcraft 3. This device will be on your local area network (LAN). In order for others on the Internet to access it, you will need set up your router for port forwarding/mapping.
Port forwarding/mapping basically takes two steps:
- Assign a static IP address to a device on your LAN that needs to be accessed from the Internet.
- Open port(s) in your Internet routers firewall.
What is the make & model of your Internet router? ...is it an AirPort or another vendor's product?
