Web server help

Hi!
I just started studying the web server technology. I downloaded the Web Server 6.1 from Sun,
and installed it on my PC (Win XP). When I try to start the server, the system complains that
some
net
program is not executable or available... I suspect the path must be fixed! where is this thing I need to make
the server start? Thanks!!!!
Nicla

The error message is in italian, but means:
net is not recognized as an internal or external command, an executable or a batch file.
This happens when I type
startsvr.bat
in C:\Sun\WebServer6.1\https-admserv
actually, typing startsvr.bat produced, before the error:
net start https-admserv61
Thanks!!!

Darwin Steaming Server On A Linux Web Server - HELP ASAP

Hello,
I'm wanting to install Darwin Streaming Server on my Linux Web Server.
How do I do this? I've uploaded the files and not sure what to do now?
Any help will be great...thanks!

Hi Jacques,
think I'm having a similar type pf problem you experienced way back in May.
Did the below suggestion fix your issue.
I'm running Red Hat Ent 5.0 with MySQL and BOXI 3.1.
I get the error
A database error occured. The database error text is: {Driver Manager} Data source name not found, and no default driver specified. (WIS 10901)
I know my unixODBC can't be working correctly since my isql doesn't work.
I've been hanging out in these forum's the past few days and your problem seems to match the one I'm experiencing at the moment.
I'd appreciate it if you can remember how you overcame the issue and could share your learnings.
Thank you, Ed

Installing CGI on SunOne Web Server - Help!

I'm new to the SunOne WebServer and am trying to get CGI/Perl to work. I've tried all I know at the CGI directory page but still can't get Hello World to show up.
Running it as *.cgi shows a 405 - Method Not Allowed Error.
Running it as *.pl prompts me to save the file - you only get that when path to Perl is not correct, no?
What else do I need to know/change on the web server to get it to run?

You have not indicated the web server version and OS that you are using. Anyway, the error that you report is probably because the CGI is not configured correctly on this server. Here are the docs for Web Server 6.1 to enable CGI:

Can anyone help me know the difference b/w application and web server?

i tried reading about application and web servers. it appears to me to be the same. please do help me to differentiate. Thanks :-)

An application server hosts business logic components for an application. A web server is an application which accepts HTTP requests.
An application server may come packaged with a web server.
A web server is a very simple process. It's HTTP daemon process that listens for incoming requests over HTTP protocol on a specified port usually, 80. For simple, static web pages the web server has the built in logic to serve them but for a complex operation(say read from database and display some records), it routes the URL to a component like the servlet engine....
An application server is a much broader term. For example the servlet may need to invoke certain business logic components like beans or activex dlls. The server that hosts these components is the application server.
Hope you are clear now.

Need help with URL Redirect in Sun Web Server 7 u5

All I am trying to do is redirect to a static URL and for the life of me I can not get it to behave the way I would expect. I am new to Sun Web Server so I am just trying to use the Admin Console to set this up.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
Redirect from - http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=2154
To - http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
Here's what I tried in the console.
Added a new URL Redirect
Set the Source to be Condition and set it to: '^/store_id=2154$' (quotes included)
Then set the Target to: http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
Then for the URL Type I checked Fixed URL
When I tested with: http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=2154 it did redirect as desired
BUT
When I tested with: "http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=5555" it too got redirected to the Target and I can't figure out how this second URL can satisfy the condition to get redirected.
Any help is most appreciated.

thanks for choosing sun web server 7
it is simpler if you just edit the configuration files manually
cd <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/config/
edit obj.conf or <hostname>-obj.conf (if there is one for you depending on your configuration so that it look something like)
<Object name="default">
AuthTrans..
#add the folllowing line here
<If defined $query>
<If $urlhost =~ "/oldsite.com" and
$uri =~ "/store/store.html" and
$query =~ "store_id=2154" >
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/" http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
</If>
</If>
..rest of the existing obj.conf. continues
NameTrans...
now, you can either do <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/bin/reconfig -> to reload your configuration without any server downtime or <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/bin/restart -> to restart the server
if it did work out for your, you will need to run the following so that admin server is aware of what you just did
<ws7-install-root>/bin/wadm pull-config user=admin config=<hostname> <hostname.domainname>
hope this helps

Need Help to Prevent DDOS at application layer to protect Web server ?

Please guide the solutions for DDOS attack. I am facing this attack and after some investigation I found some details what is up against me
Here are some details of the attack which is most similar in my situation.
In considering the ramifications of a slow denial of service attack against particular services, rather than flooding networks, a concept emerged that would allow a single machine to take down another machine's web server with minimal bandwidth and side effects on unrelated services and ports. The ideal situation for many denial of service attacks is where all other services remain intact but the webserver itself is completely inaccessible. Slowloris was born from this concept, and is therefore relatively very stealthy compared to most flooding tools.
Slowloris holds connections open by sending partial HTTP requests. It continues to send subsequent headers at regular intervals to keep the sockets from closing. In this way webservers can be quickly tied up. In particular, servers that have threading will tend to be vulnerable, by virtue of the fact that they attempt to limit the amount of threading they'll allow. Slowloris must wait for all the sockets to become available before it's successful at consuming them, so if it's a high traffic website, it may take a while for the site to free up it's sockets. So while you may be unable to see the website from your vantage point, others may still be able to see it until all sockets are freed by them and consumed by Slowloris. This is because other users of the system must finish their requests before the sockets become available for Slowloris to consume. If others re-initiate their connections in that brief time-period they'll still be able to see the site. So it's a bit of a race condition, but one that Slowloris will eventually always win - and sooner than later.
Slowloris also has a few stealth features built into it. Firstly, it can be changed to send different host headers, if your target is a virtual host and logs are stored seperately per virtual host. But most importantly, while the attack is underway, the log file won't be written until the request is completed. So you can keep a server down for minutes at a time without a single log file entry showing up to warn someone who might watching in that instant. Of course once your attack stops or once the session gets shut down there will be several hundred 400 errors in the web server logs. That's unavoidable as Slowloris sits today, although it may be possible to turn them into 200 OK messages instead by completing a valid request, but Slowloris doesn't yet do that.
Please suggest any solutions with product that can help to prevent this problem with some guidance of the feature of that product to specifically prevent this type of attack. I already a many cisco devices like ASA, IPS, Cisco guard etc. just need some guidance
An early response requested and it will be highly appreciated.

Hello Haseen
Any tool will have some sort of trend/chracterstic that can be used to filter or throttle it out. Take skype for an example; even with all its complexity vendors managed to find days to detect it on the network and take corrective actions. However its always a catch-up game, developers continually work to make their applications or protocols more stealthy and the vendors have to keep up with this challenge.
So you would need to understand this trend/chracterstic of the attack, and then filter out using an access control mechanism, IMHO the most appropriate would be a web application firewall (WAF), Cisco used to have one but I think it is EOS soon:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9586/index.html
F5 Networks have their ASM module:
http://www.f5.com/products/big-ip/application-security-manager.html
Other vendors also have some good tools.
Please rate if you find the applications helpful.

Help Setting Up File and Web Server in OS 8.6

I have an OS 8.6 400mhz G3 B&W with 512mb RAM and an 80GB HD. It has the OEM operating system which is 8 on it. First I can't access the computer via afp from a Leopard Machine (Yes appletalk is enabled.). It gives me the error -36. Which is "The Finder can not complete the operation because some data in _____________ could not be read or written. I need this computer for a File and Web server. How could I make it accessible via AFP and FTP? I thought about linux but it requires a terminal like interface and I don't like that.

To begin with, have a look at the IV. Troubleshooting section of KB article 106461:
"Mac OS X 10.4 and later don't support Personal File Sharing (or other AFP) over Appletalk, though by initiating the connection from the opposite direction you could still achieve an IP connection from a Mac OS 8 computer to a sharing Mac OS X computer."
Regarding servers: There is a built-in web server in Mac OS 8.6 (see the help system for details). Alternatively, the (now) free NetPresenz could perhaps be of interest.

Need Help Streaming Video From Web Server Built Into Application - Linksys WRT54g Router

Very much appreciate any help getting streaming video feed from web server built into video application to work properly using port forwarding on my Linksys WRT54g wireless router.
Here is the situation:
My PC is connected to the internet via a Linksys WRT54g wireless router.
The Windows XP Pro SP2 firewall is enabled, with a firewall exception established for the video camera application.
On the router, forwarding of port 80 is enabled for the LAN IP address of the PC running the video application with an embedded web server, and the web server in the video camera application is also set to use port 80.
I have a free DYNDNS account and also run the DYNDNS updater program on the PC running the video application with embedded web server. According to the DYNDNS web site and the DYNDNS updater program, the IP address assigned to the machine running the video application with embedded web server is set correctly in my dyndns account.
When I open a browser (Explorer or Firefox) on the PC running the video camera application with embedded web server, I am able to connect to the video application's web server by going to the dyndns address linked to the machine running the video application. The video application's web server is set to use the dyndns address. That's the good news. The bad news is that I can't connect to the video application's web server from any machine that connects to the internet that uses a router other than the router used by the PC running the video application. I am only able to connect to the streaming video from the application's web server only on machines that connect to the internet using the same (home) router used by the PC that is running the video application.
Since I am able to connect to the video app's embedded web server successfully on the machine running the video application, it seems that at least something about the current port forwarding settings is correct. For example, if I uncheck 'enable' for forwarding of port 80 on the router settings page, I am no longer able to connect to the video app's web server when I try to do so in a browser running on the machine running the video app. When I re-enable port 80 forwarding on the router, I am again able to connect to the web server of the video application on the machine running the video app. I thought that by enabling forwarding of port 80 on the router and associating that port with the LAN IP of the machine running the video application, it would be possible to connect to the streaming video of the video app's embedded web server from ANY machine connected to the internet, but that is not the case. There must be some other router settings to update/change in order to get the port forwarding working to enable a successful connection to the video web server, but I am stumped. Very grateful for any suggestions as to how to get this working properly.
Thanks in advance...

The firewall log can be configured on the third tab in the window for the firewall settings, where you can turn the firewall on and off completely.
From your tests, though, it does not seem to be the firewall. However, to be sure, it would be good to check the log. It will help to eliminate the firewall as the culprit and you may find it handy in the future, too. ;-) Just don't forget to turn the log off again after you are done because it may cause some performance penalty on your system while on.
From what you write, it seems as if I should give a little networking background on the ip addresses you'll see. Your setup is (or should be) a modem connected to the WAN/Internet port of the WRT. The computer is connected into a LAN port of the WRT.
Your router has two IP addresses (that's what makes it a router): a WAN address and a LAN address. The WAN address is the address assigned by the ISP. It is a normal internet IP address. Everyone is able to send packets to this IP address. The WAN address is the one reported by whatismyipaddress.com, it should be listed in the dyndns record and it is the address that your router shows on the Status page. It's the public IP address of your router. Dyndns maps your dyndns.org name to that IP address.
Your router also has an IP address on the LAN side. You can configure it to be whatever you want. The default is 192.168.1.1 with netmask 255.255.255.0 and it is better to leave it like that or at least inside the network 192.168.*.*. 192.168 is a special, reserved IP address range for private networks. Basically, routers in the internet are not supposed to forward addresses in this range. That makes them suitable for private LANs as the packets never can get anywhere. Most people using Linksys routers have there LAN in 192.168.1.*.
The router acts as gateway, which means it forwards packets from PCs in the LAN to the internet and back. As all your PCs in your LAN share a single WAN IP address, the gateway does address translation (NAT). This works only in one direction: from the inside to the outside. The router remembers when a PC in your LAN sends something out and accepts the responses in and sending them back to the PC. If something comes in from the internet which cannot be associated with a ongoing communication the packet is dropped unless you use port forwarding.
All computers in your LAN either have a static IP address assigned or use DHCP to get it automatically. The router has a DHCP server as well which gives out IP address from 192.168.1.100-149 if not changed. With a router with default settings static IP addresses can be in the range of 192.168.1.2-99 and 150-254.
ipconfig /all reports your IP address in your LAN, i.e. an address 192.168.1.*. The gateway in this output should be 192.168.1.1 which is your router. And packet no in the LAN address range 192.168.1.* is send to the router which forwards the packets into the internet.
An address 192.168.1.* should not appear as internet address in the Status page of the router nor should it appear at dyndns.
Port forwarding is used to operate a server in the LAN. By default, a server in the LAN cannot be reached from the internet. You have to configure port forwarding for this. You configure that traffic bound for a specific port (e.g. TCP port 80 for http) on your WAN IP address is forwarded to the same port on a specific LAN IP address. If your server runs on 192.168.1.50 than traffic to your WAN IP address port 80 is forwarded to 192.168.1.50 port 80. That way your HTTP server can be reached from the internet. As you can only configure a fixed IP address in port forwarding it is recommended that the server uses a static IP address and not DHCP as in the latter case the IP address may change over time...
O.K. so much for networking. I hope that makes things a little clearer and you can verify that your setup is how it is intended to be.
I suggest the following: on the router's security page there is an option to block WAN requests. Remove the check if it is set (meaning: do not block). After you did that change you should be able to ping your WAN address (e.g. ping xxxx.dyndns.org) from the internet. That way we know that it is on the correct address.
Also on the Administration page make sure that remote management is disabled (should be like that per default) or that the management port is NOT 80 but for example 8080. What is your your UPnP settings on the same page?
O.K. that should be enough for the moment...

Strange HTTP/Web Server Problem - HELP ~~~~~~~

HI all,
I would like to seek help from you - the apple expert!
I received my mac mini server and immediate want to setup a web/http server. I encountered one very strange problem that only the mac mini server itself can access the http server page but not all other machines in the same internal network. I tried to troubleshoot and so simplify the setting as follow
Here is my setting
- The Web Server service is ON
- I closed all the built in web services (wiki, cal, blogs, webmail) for troubleshoot
- I created a "Custom Sites" with 192.168.11.9:8080 <- this is my mac mini ip
- Ensured the /Library/WebServer/Sites/192.168.11.9 got right permission
When i open IE in my window vista laptop, type in address "http://192.168.11.9:8080", it doesn't work. Is there anything i need to config so that other machine (Win OS) in the internal network can also access the http server in my mac mini?
Thank you very much.
A newbies in mini

...and in your do/while loop think what happens when read() does return -1. You still write the entire buffer. You should do something like this instead:
    while (true) {
        int count = in.read(buf);
        if (count == -1)
            break;
       out.write(buf, 0, count);
    }

What is the exact version of Web Server you are using? Should be in the error logs or try $start -version
It would be faster if you can capture and cut and paste the data that is sent between firefox and Web Server in both the cases using /usr/sfw/bin/ssltap (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/ssltap.html) or ethereal when you try to view that shtml file. We can see if its any different in both cases and try it from there.
Also verify the steps given in http://docs.sun.com/source/817-1832-10/pgshtml.html
mime.types should have :
type=magnus-internal/parsed-html exts=shtml
obj.conf should have :
Service fn="shtml_send" type="magnus-internal/parsed-html" method="(GET|HEAD)"
When you activate parsing, magnus.conf should have :
Init funcs="shtml_init,shtml_send" shlib="install_dir/bin/https/bin/Shtml.dll" NativeThreads="no" fn="load-modules"
Shtml.dll (or libShtml.so on UNIX), is located in install_dir/bin/https/bin for Windows, and install_dir/bin/https/lib for UNIX.
