I apparently have no idea what I am doing. I am running Ubuntu Server 7.10 with Apache 2 web server and ProFTPd FTP server. I have two domain names registered with 1&1 Internet. Using this setup, I can server one of the domains if I configure Apache manually. I want to serve both domains locally, though, so I installed ISPConfig. I have added myself as a client and added one site. All I get when I try to access the web page with it's domain address, all I get is a page that tells me: This IP address is shared. For access to the web site which you look for, enter its address instead of its IP. I have tried setting 1&1 redirection to frame-based or HTTP-based, with no difference. I assume that 1&1 is simply using the numerical IP address in place of the domain address. Can someone please tell me a way around this. Please bear in mind that I am new to Linux and web servers. What little I do know has been learned by tutorials on this site and by trial-and-error. I will appreciate any advise that anyone can offer. If any of this helps, here is the data that I think is pertinent - software: Ubuntu Server 7.10, Apache 2, ProFTPd tutorial: The Perfect Server - Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (Ubuntu 7.10) domain registrar: 1&1 Internet domain: www.Computer-Graveyard.com public IP address: 72.149.151.xxx local IP address: 192.168.1.13 If I have missed anything else that would help, please let me know.
Ok.. I think I fixed it... Under ISPConfig Server/Settings, I had IP Address set to the local IP - 192.168.1.13, instead of the public IP. That field could have a little more specific description, but.... Thanks, anyway. ________ XR75 ________ Spice weed
You must use the local IP and not the external IP if your server is behind a router. If the server is directly connected to the internet, it normally does not have a local IP address (except 127.0.0.1).
1:30 in the morning and I am about aggravated! The local IP address of the computer I am using as a server is 192.168.1.13. My public static IP address is 72.149.151.22. I have an IPMap set in my Netopia router to forward 72.149.151.22 to 192.168.1.13. I have RobotsAndComputers.com and Computer-Graveyard.com (both registered through 1&1 Internet) forwarded to 72.149.151.22 using frame-based forwarding. When I set Server/Settings in ISPConfig to 192.168.1.13 (which I saw elsewhere in this forum was what it SHOULD be) as well as the IP address under ISP Site/Basis, I get a Shared IP Address error page when attempting to connect to either domain. If I set those addresses to 72.149.151.22, then I no longer get the Shared IP Address error page, but instead of loading the web pages index.htm file, I am presented with a directory listing of /var/www. I have even tried using 72.149.151.22 in Server/Settings and 192.168.1.13 in the ISP Site/Basis fields. I still get the Shared IP error page. I am going to bed! If anyone can help, I will be EXTREMELY grateful! I am going to include my apache2.conf, proftpd.conf, proftpd_ispconf.conf and Vhosts_ispconfig.conf (in another message due to length limits) files. If you need anything else, please let me know.

Ok, please read my post above. There is nothing more to say and no other possible answer. If you still get the shared IP address, then you misconfigured DNS or your router. You must configure your router to foward port 80 to the exact same internal IP address that you selected for the website. You can nnever use frame based forwarding as this is no forwarding at all, its just a browser trick and ignored by apache. You will have to set a A-Record in DNS that points to your router IP.
I cannot find anything on the router for "Port Forwarding." The closest thing I can find is IPMaps (Set up NAT one-to-one IP address mappings) which I have set to forward 72.149.151.22 (the public static IP address) to 192.168.1.13 (the local internal IP address of the server). I cannot find anything to forward ports specifically. Under 1&1 Internets domain management, I am only offered two choices (that I can find) - frame-based redirection and HTTP redirection. If I select HTTP redirection, then the address bar on the remote computer accessing the site shows http://72.149.151.22/www.Computer-Graveyard.com/web/ instead of the http://www.Computer-Graveyard.com/ that it is supposed to. I will email 1&1 to see if they allow the DNS records to be updated. I see in ISPConfig that you can elect to have ISPConfig create DNS and DNS-MX records. Is that what I need to send to 1&1, and if so, where does ISPConfig create them? Before I reinstalled the server system (Linux, Apache, ISPConfig) - I screwed it up and had to reinstall - I was able to type www.Computer-Graveyard.com into any browser in the world and pull up the web site just fine using the same router settings. I appreciate your help, but this is driving me mad. I swear I am about ready to give up un the whole Linux server idea and try using an older iMac.
I was able to create a Pinhole for TCP external port 80 to internal port 80 on 192.168.1.13 (rather than the IPMap that I was trying to use). I am still getting Shared IP errors. ________ electronic cigarettes ________ Portable Vaporizer Reviews
You can neither use http or frame based redirects. You will have to use a dns a-record as I described above.
OK... I got it working! After I created pinholes in my router for ports 80, 21 and 22 I went to 1&1 and found a link where I could edit the DNS settings. I added 72.149.151.22 as IP Address (A record)): Other and turned forwarding off (as you suggested). I was still getting the Shared IP errors. Just for the #### of it, I turned frame-based forwarding on on one site and HTTP forwarding on on the other. The one with frame-based worked while the HHTP forward did not, so I changed that one to frame-based and now they both work. I would like to ask another question, if you don't mind, though. There is a setting under 1&1s DNS page where I can change the nameserver from 1&1 name server to my own. I did try this (I assume that might take care of the forwarding problem), but I apparently need two different IP addresses - I only have one. There is an option where I can set 1&1 name server as the second server, so I used that as the secondary server and tried 72.149.151.22, both with and without the http:// prefix, as the primary name server. I was given an error saying that the address I gave it wasn't valid. Any ideas on that one? Both domains, www.Computer-Graveyard and www.RobotsAndComputers.com , are working, so I'm not REALLY worried about it, but I am curious if the way I have this working if it will effect CGI, SSI or PHP.
