access to Internet denied

paulgiles · 05-30-2005, 02:21 PM

I have loaded Fedora 2, with HTTP, SAMBA, and VSFTP with all defaults. I logon after the initial boot and was able to access the internet, I started Http, Samba, and VSFTP and now keep getting "access denied" when attempting to go to "google.com" I can FTP from my network, I can utilixe SAMBA and I can access my licksys router (192.168.1.1) but I can not get beyond the router. Is there some thing I am overlooking. I have enabled the firewall from the begining. Thanks.

Look at /etc/resolv.conf is it still pointing to your router?

paulgiles · 05-30-2005, 08:24 PM

Yes it is, it displays exactly what it did when I could access the internet? Thanks, I need all the help I can get. I have rebuilt the server four times trying to get past this issue.

What happens when you;
ping www.google.com -c 3

paulgiles · 05-30-2005, 09:32 PM

I get a "unknown host for any URL.

Its almost like your network got stopped,have you tried to restart it.

paulgiles · 06-01-2005, 07:47 AM

Yes I have but now I can not access my web page from outside my network. I have shut down Samba and vsftpd to no avail. I do have a couple of failures. The logs show me the mdmpd failed, sshd failed to bind to port 22 - address already in use, from the system log www kernal, there is already a security framework initialized, register_security_failed, and www kernal ,failure registering capabilities with the kernal. I can access teh server from my XP desktop over the network as a workgroup, and can access my web page (www.cepphas.com) from my network. I am able to access my router from the Linux server and see my web page on localhost. I still can not ping www.google.com, www.cepphas.com or any other RTL. I can access everythign from the XP desktop on the same network. Sorry I am rambling and frustrated. I know I have done something stupid or in ignorance.

seems like you've got no internet access - dns resolving
did you check log for dialup (or cable modem)?

comprookie2000 · 06-01-2005, 12:51 PM

Check /etc/hosts make sure when you do hostname and domainname that is right and again /etc/resolv.conf

paulgiles · 06-01-2005, 03:21 PM

etc/hosts.conf displays "order hosts, bind",/etc/resolv.conf displays the DNS1,2, and 3 as well as the default address

comprookie2000 · 06-01-2005, 06:57 PM

When you do from terminal

Code:

hostname

Code:

domainname

is it the same as what you want and is it the same as in /etc/hosts
I connect to the WAN through a dsl moden so my /etc/resolv.conf is the modems address
nameserver 192.168.1.254
search launchmodem
this is not my dns nameservers
This stuff can be a little confusing for me, I'm just giving you something to look at.
Yours may be totally different
First thing for sure is to be able to ping something on the WAN "www.google.com"
sorry can't be of much help good luck

Can anyone tell me what "Brute Force is"? The etc/host file has 192.186.1.1 and 127.0.0.0. In the file host.allow what should be in there? I can not find an example.
Thanks

paulgiles · 06-02-2005, 06:49 AM

The answer to route -n is
192.168.1.0
169.254.0.0
127.0.0.0

How do you change the route? I think it should be 192.168.1.1
Thanks in advance

paulgiles · 06-02-2005, 06:59 AM

I am sorry, I can ping my router and 192.168.1.120, but I can not ping outside my network.
