New Linux Server Ubuntu Install

[rama1712]

Hi Gurus out there need some advice on the following,

 

I have just setup a server with Ubuntu server the hardware is a poweredge 2950 with 2 broadcom net extreme ii cards.

 

This server is going to be or VLP/VLE with Moodle 2 I have all that setup and running and i have the 2 nics get ip from dhcp

10.**.**.54 Primary Nic

10.**.**.55 2nd Nic

 

We had the LA create a public ip address and a exteral dns entry into the firewall vle.*****.*****.sch.uk on port 80 to point to internal 10.**.**.54 port 80

 

Problem:

We first set up a windows server with the same hardware except it had a teamed net config of 10.**.**.54 and we could access the website from outside of the school.

But we decide to change to linux as there are more options open to us with running Linux

Since i changed i cannot access the website from outside of the internal lan.

we can access the vle.*****.*****.sch.uk from with in the school as the is a internal dns entry on primary dns

 

Is there anything i need to change on ubuntu server in the firewall rules, net config etc??

 

Also we want to team up the 2 nic to load bal on 10.**.**.54 so easy on windows but cannot find an easy way to do on ubuntu. I do had webmin installed and working.

 

Any help advice etc Please

Big Thanks in advance

For ubuntu you will need to setup a network card bond see this link

 

You can then give this bond the one public Ip address

 

 

EDIT: Not the public IP you internal IP - I assume for Firewall has the public ip!
