Hello, I am using freebsd 4.4 stable.
I am also not a complete newbie but I definitely am
a neophyte when it comes to unix.
I recently left my job where they let me colo
a server there. Since I left, I had to take my server
with me. I had help setting it up but that help isn't
available anymore.
I am pretty sure these are pretty simple things to do
I just can't remember which files to edit to do it.
1. I need to re-assign the static IP that is on the box
to an IP within my internal network at home. I know
it is just as simple as changing the 12.x.x.x number
to a 192.x.x.x number in a file, I just don't know which file.
/etc/rc.conf Look for a line similar to: ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0" inet should be chenged to your IP-address.
2. There weren't any blocked ports at work. So
I could use the standard ports for ftp and http. But
at home I have CoxCable and they block 21 and 80
and maybe some others that I am ot sure of. How
do I change what ports ftp and http are served off of
on my server. When I originally set up the box I actually have 2 ftp ports (16 and 21) I just can't remember where I changed that. And do I change the
http in the same place?
I guess it all depends on which ftp- and http-server you are using. In my config file for proftpd I've put: Port 2121 I'm hence using 2121 for my ftp-server. In my config file for Apache I've put: Port 80 I'm hence using 80 for my http-server, which of course could be changed to something different.
