Execution

Installation of a Network Adapter in the e machine

I installed an OvisLink Internal 10/100bps PCI Ethernet adapter into the upper PCI slot on my e machine's motherboard. On bootup, the system returned a resource conflict. So, on on January 27, 2012, I took my computer and network card to the Lair with the purpose of getting assistance with the installation of the network adapter. While the instructor taught class, I borrowed a keyboard and mouse and installed the network card, this time in the lower PCI slot. I also removed the modem card from its slot. I booted up the computer and noticed that there was no notification from the operating system, Windows XP Home, of any new hardware. I looked in device manager and noticed that there was a network adapter listed. I hooked up the adapter to a switch and rebooted the computer. Once the Windows desktop was displayed, I opened Internet Explorer and then pointed it to Google. Success! the Google logo was displayed. Since resolving the resource conflict described above, I loaded Bonzai Linux, and then Ubuntu 11.10 on my e machine. After replacing the operating system, I wanted to recreate the resource conflict described in the previous paragraph so that I could document it better. I reinstalled the network adapter into the top PCI slot, I also reinstalled the modem into its slot because I wasn't sure if removing the modem or moving the network adapter to the lower PCI slot, or both, resolved the resource conflict. then booted the computer. This time there were no resource conflicts, interesting!

Repair of the emachine's CD Drive

The emachine's CD drive didn't work, its door wouldn't open; so I removed it from the emachine so that I could take it apart to see if I could determine the cause of its malfunctioning. After taking the drive apart, I found that there was a CD stuck in it. After carefully removing the CD, I reassembled the CD drive and reinstalled it into the emachine. Once the computer booted, I found that the drive worked perfectly.

DSL (Damn Small Linux) Live CD

I downloaded a live CD image of DSL (dsl-4.4.10.iso) from http://distro.ibiblio.org/damnsmall/current/ . After downloading the CD image, I burned it to a CD. I put the CD into the CD drive and rebooted the computer (the bios was set to boot from the CD before the hard drive). The computer booted into DSL. I was able to open Firefox and point it to Google. Success! I was able to open the Google search engine.
After reading the following excerpt: “Now for the warning: Damn Small is not derived purely from Debian, if you 'apt-get install' the wrong application you may break something, for instance, the X servers.

If you want an easy and compact way to get Debian on your hard drive check out Bonzai”
http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/dsl-hd-install.html
I decided that it probably wasn't a good distribution to use Damn Small Linux for my web controlled hardware project.

Installation of Bonzai Linux

The Bonzai Linux home page is located at: http://developer.berlios.de/projects/bonzai/. The latest version can be downloaded from: http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=825&release_id=1910. I downloaded a cd image of Bonzai 3.2 (bonzai_3_2.iso) from http://prdownload.berlios.de/bonzai/bonzai_3_2.iso . I then burned the image to a cd. I was able to load it on my E-Machine. SSH, however, wasn't loaded, so I loaded it so that I could connect with lab46. Before installing SSH, however, I couldn't even connect to theInternet. So I researched what was required to do so. I found that I had to load a driver for my network adapter, start the eth0 device, and start the DHCP client. Of course, this last step isn't required if the IP address, etc. are assigned statically. I wanted my network to assign these things dynamically, so that I wouldn't have manage them; that is the point of the DHCP protocol. In order be able to connect to the Internet, I had to perform the tasks mentioned above on the system so I opened a terminal window.
First, to connect to the Internet, I had to manual load a hardware specific driver for my network adapter:

Bonzai:~$ modprobe 8138too

Next, I brought device eth0 up:

Bonzai:~$ ifconfig eth0 up

Lastley, I started the DHCP client so I didn't have to statically assign the IP address, etc:

Bonzai:~$ dhclient

After I performed these tasks, I was able to view web pages. Next, I opened a terminal window and attempted to SSH into lab46 but was unable because SSH hadn't been loaded. So, with the terminal window open, I performed an apt-get install ssh:

apt-get install ssh

Because the sources.list file pointed to the installation CD, I was prompted to insert the CD. I did and SSH loaded successfully on my Bonzai Linux system. After loading SSH, I was able to SSH into lab46 and send the instructor an e-mail.
Below is the e-mail I sent to the instructor informing him that after loading Bonzai Linux and configuring the system, I was able to connect to lab46 via SSH and send him an e-mail.

Subject: Coming to you from my E Machine Bonzai Linux Box!

Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!
This is coming to you from my Bonzai or Banzai or should I say Bonsai (small) E-Machine Linux box! Man, it was a pain!
First, no network! I read and read and experimented, finally, I got it working by doing the following after boot-up:
        modprobe 8138too //loads the driver for my Network adapter
        ifconfig eth0 up //starts up eth0
        dhclient         //starts DHCP so that I can get IPaddress, etc.
Where do I put these commands? Startup script?
Next step, install Arduino.
Also, no SSH, I had to figuare out how to install it. Luckly, it was on the Banzai (or Bonzai) CD.
Now I can experiment with all kinds of stuff.

Installation of Ubuntu 11.10

I downloaded a cd image of Ubuntu 11.10 (ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso) from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download. I then burned the image to a cd.

Installation and Use of Open SSH on Ubuntu 11.10

I installed Open SSH on my e machine so that I could remotely administer the operating system, Ubuntu 11.10. On the emachine, I opened a terminal window and installed Open SSH as follows:

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

In order to open an SSH connection, one needs to know either the domain name or the IP address of the remote host, so on the host on which I was going to install Open SSH, I performed an ifconfig to get its IP address:

jr018429@emachine:~$ ifconfig

jr018429@emachine:~$ 

Next, I opened putty on a remote computer and attempted to log in to the emachine:

login as: jr018429
jr018429@192.168.1.113's password:

jr018429@emachine:~$

Success! I was able to log into my emachine remotely.

Next, I tried to transfer a file from the emachine running Ubuntu, to my Windows 7 desktop, so I entered the IP address, username, password and port number for the connection:

Success! I was able to transfer a file from the emachine to my laptop.

I wanted to create a root user and password so I performed the following via pUTTY:

login as: jr018429
jr018429@192.168.1.113's password:

jr018429@emachine:~$ su
Password:

Next, I edited /etc/network/interfaces file:

root@emachine:/home/jr018429# nano /etc/network/interfaces

I added the section beginning with the line “auto eth0” to the /etc/network/interfaces file:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.2
        network 192.168.1.0

        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1

Lastly, I restarted networking:

root@emachine:/home/jr018429# /etc/init.d/networking restart

I then logged into the emachine from pUTTY using the new IP address:

login as: jr018429
jr018429@192.168.1.2's password:

I plugged in the IP address assigned by the ISP into Internet Explorer on my laptop running Windows 7.

Success! The default Web page is displayed. I now have Web server running and accessible to the outside world.
Next, I wanted Apache to listen at port 8080 so that my server wouldn't be accessible from the standard HTTP port (80). I configured Apache to listen also at port 8080 through pUTTY (remote administeration).
In /etc/apache2/ports.conf, I added the line “Listen 8080” immediately after the “Listen 80” line.
ports.conf:

# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely also
# have to change the VirtualHost statement in
# /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
# This is also true if you have upgraded from before 2.2.9-3 (i.e. from
# Debian etch). See /usr/share/doc/apache2.2-common/NEWS.Debian.gz and
# README.Debian.gz

NameVirtualHost *:80
Listen 80
Listen 8080

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
    # If you add NameVirtualHost *:443 here, you will also have to change
    # the VirtualHost statement in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl
    # to <VirtualHost *:443>
    # Server Name Indication for SSL named virtual hosts is currently not
    # supported by MSIE on Windows XP.
    Listen 443
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_gnutls.c>
    Listen 443
</IfModule>


In /etc/apache2/sites-available/default, I changed the first line from <VirtualHost *:80> to <VirtualHost *:80 *:8080>.
default:

<VirtualHost *:80 *:8080>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I then restarted Apache2.

root@emachine:/etc/apache2#



Success! accessing the 8080 port using an HTTP request causes a Web page to be returned. Now I can either configure Apache to only listen on port 8080, or only forward the 8080 port from the Linksys router.

Next, since I installed PHP, I wanted to verify that PHP scripting worked, so I logged into the emachine remotely and created a web page with PHP script which calls the phpinfo function. The phpinfo function returns php configuration information.

I tested the phpinfo.php file by entering 192.168.1.2:8080/phpinfo.php into a Web browser.
Success! The page was returned.

I attempted to perform an apt-get update, however, it failed…

I searched the Web for information regarding the error message “Something wicked happened resolving 'extras.ubuntu.com ”. After much searching and trying various things suggested on various Web pages, I came upon two Webs listed in the references section of this page which says to add the following lines to the /etc/resolv.conf file. After they were added, apt-get update worked perfectly.
/etc/resolv.conf:

# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

After modifying the file, here is the output of executing apt-get update:

When I logged in remotely to my emachine today, April 2, 2012, I noticed that there were 28 packages to be updated, 18 of which are security updates. I decided to perform an 'apt-get update, and then an apt-get upgrade. Updating an dupgrading the system is a common system maintenance task. Unfortunately, I was interrupted and didn't get to capture the 'apt-get upgrade' information:

Reflection

This was a great project, as I got to apply what I learned in my electronics, HPC0, HPC2, and Network Fundamentals courses.
I took apart and repaired the emachine's CD rom drive. I troubleshot and fixed my network adapter. I got it to Work with Windows XP and Bonzai Linux. I set a static IP address in my emachine so that my Web server was always at the same internal IP address so that I could forward the HTTP port to it. I forwarded port 80 from the router to the Webserver. I also forwarded port 22 to the emachine so that I could administer it remotely and securely.
