Unable to connect to Linux VM from Windows 7 Desktop

ssh destination:
--VM : Oracle VM Virtual Box 4.3.20
--Linux installed on VM: Fedora 22 (IP: 10.0.2.15 )
ssh source:
--Windows 7 Desktop
I installed putty on Windows 7 Desktop and am trying to connect to Fedora 22 VM using putty.
To make this work, I have configured "port forwarding" from Oracle VM GUI menu.
for the "Host IP", I tried the "IPV4 Address" under "Wireless LAN adapter Connection" since I am on wifi at home. I also tried "IPV4 Adddress" under "Ethernet adapter VirtualBox Host-only Network". Finally I tried 127.0.0.1 for the "Host IP". None of these work.
Upon all of the above attempts, I receive "Connection timed out" from my putty.
Once I can make this work, my next goal is to ssh from one VM to another VM. FYI - My second VM shows the same IP address of the first VM I put in, I am guessing I need to change the IP address of the second VM manually. Please let me know if you have any advice on this as well.

How should I use session cookies with OVMM Rest API and Ansible URI Module

I am able to use the Oracle Virtual Machine Manager (OVMM) REST API successfully with the Ansible URI module with the exception that I have to pass the username and password to EACH call instead of grabbing the session cookies from the first call and using them thereafter.
As I understand it the following should work, however I get a '401 Unauthorized' from the second call.
I have tried a number of variations in the second call. When I debug the playbook I see the cookies (JSESSIONID and _WL_AUTHCOOKIE_JSESSIONID) are being passed as expected.
To be clear, if I change the second API call to use basic_auth, username and password it works.
- name: Get OVM Manager
local_action:
module: uri
url: "{{ baseuri }}/Manager"
url_username: "{{ ovmUser }}"
url_password: "{{ ovmPassword }}"
validate_certs: false
force_basic_auth: true
method: GET
register: login
- name: Get info about VMs
local_action:
module: uri
url: "{{ baseuri }}/Vm/id"
validate_certs: false
method: GET
headers:
Cookie: "{{ login.cookies_string }}" # Why doesn't this work???

I have an installed Kali linux 2020.2 on my Oracle VM
and by mistake I turned my computer OFF when the Oracle was saving the session ...
and now when I'm trying to boot on it get stuck at "the Dragon logo"
What I've tried so far:
- Left it for an hour ... and it always stuck as the image above shows
- I changed the Kernel I tried 5.6.0, 5.7.0, 5.8.0, 5.9.0
- And for grub I tried with splash (delete this value) and quit (change it to non-quit)
**How to fix that boot problem**

deleting data in a domU-mounted image does not reduce the image size
I have difficulties understanding the following situation: Dom0 image: ``` [root@Dom0]# du -h 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img 980M 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img ``` is mounted on DomU: ``` [root@DomU]# df -h /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1 Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvde 50G 62M 47G...
I have difficulties understanding the following situation:
Dom0 image:
How does the difference come about?
I did the following procedure to create and mount the image:
[root@Dom0]# du -h 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
980M 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
is mounted on DomU:
[root@DomU]# df -h /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvde 50G 62M 47G 1% /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
When I write data to /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
the disk usage on DomU and Dom0 increases accordingly:
[root@DomU dbhome_1]# dd if=/dev/zero of=./test.img bs=4k iflag=fullblock,count_bytes > /dev/null
[root@DomU dbhome_1]# df -h /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvde 50G 21G 27G 44% /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
[root@Dom0]# du -h 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
21G 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
When I remove the data the diskusage of DomU is being reduced, but Dom0 stays the same:
[root@DomU dbhome_1]# rm test.img
[root@DomU dbhome_1]# df -h /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvde 50G 62M 47G 1% /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1
[root@Dom0]# du -h 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
21G 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
How does the difference come about?
I did the following procedure to create and mount the image:
[root@Dom0]# qemu-img create 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img.img 50G &>/dev/null
[root@Dom0]# xm block-attach domU file:19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img /dev/xvde w >/dev/null 2>&1
[root@Dom0]# ln -s 19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img.img /path/to/link/19.12.0.0_dbhome_1.img
[root@Dom0]# vi vm.cfg (added link to disks[] parameter)
[root@DomU]# parted /dev/xvde mklabel gpt &>/dev/null
[root@DomU]# parted -s /dev/xvde mkpart primary 0 100% &>/dev/null
[root@DomU]# parted -s /dev/xvde set 1 lvm on &>/dev/null
[root@DomU]# echo "/dev/xvde /u01/app/oracle/product/19.12.0.0/dbhome_1 ext4 defaults 1 1\" >> /etc/fstab

I am running manjaro in an Oracle VirtualBox to test a virgin install of a set of softwares. I am getting an error that there is no more disk space on a particular download, however, when I set up the vm in the VirtualBox Manager, I am allocating it plenty of space (> 100GB). I have tried changing this from dynamic allocation to a fixed partition, but this did not solve the issue.
When I run
lsblk
, this is the output:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS
loop0 7:0 0 130.6M 1 loop /run/miso/sfs/livefs
loop1 7:1 0 581.9M 1 loop /run/miso/sfs/mhwdfs
loop2 7:2 0 1.5G 1 loop /run/miso/sfs/desktopfs
loop3 7:3 0 702.8M 1 loop /run/miso/sfs/rootfs
sda 8:0 0 134G 0 disk
sr0 11:0 1 2.9G 0 rom /run/miso/bootmnt
So to me it looks like the 134gb partition needs to be mounted?
I run sudo fdisk -l
to see where it is:

I am trying to install a Let's Encrypt certificate on a Oracle Linux Server 7.6. Since the server does not have a public IP, I had to validate via DNS.I followed the instructions here https://github.com/joohoi/acme-dns-certbot-joohoi and the validation worked and I got the certificate. How do I now install the certificate?
I followed instructions online and moved the certificate to etc/ssl/certs and deleted the old certificate. After restarting the machine however the website does not work and I get an error site cannot be reached.
I can interact with the server only via SSH.

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I am trying to use Oracle VM to load a Kali Linux operating system and get an error that I see is quite common with a lot of other people online. The thing is that most people run Windows and the solutions end up irrelevant to my case. I will include a screenshot of the exact issue I am getting. I have tried to update, uninstall and install again. Still, the very same issue persists. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated since I do not know what else to do.
Thank you in advance.

Basically what I am looking for is similar feature like RDP on Windows. I should be able to view the login screen through VNC Viewer. Even if server is restarted I should still be able to access it through VNC Viewer. Currently someone has to first obtain the console through OVM (these are all VMs), login and only then is it possible to remote through VNC Viewer.
I know this question has been asked here previously [\[ref1\]][1] [\[ref2\]][2] also here but so far I have been unsuccessful in my attempts. Can anyone provide a detailed guide on how to go about achieving this?
- OS: Oracle Linux 5
- VNC rpm : vnc-server-4.1.2-14.el5_6.6
Update 1 - VNC at User Level
------
Ok so I followed everything listed [here](https://superuser.com/questions/147109/automatically-start-vnc-server-on-startup)
- Logged in to the server through PuTTY using root (because that's the acount I need to use for logging in through VNC).
- Ran vncpasswd and set the VNC login password.
- Saved the script as
/etc/init.d/vncserver
after changing the following parameters:
- USER="root"
- DISPLAY="1"
- Did +x /etc/init.d/vncserver
.
- Did --level 2345 vncserver on
.
- Did /root/.vnc/xstartup
and uncommented the lines:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
and changed last line from &
to &
(since I'm using GNOME).
- Restarted the server.
Now I could successfully remote to the server through VNC Viewer. This works even if server is restarted. However, **it bypasses the lock screen and does not prompt for password**. For this I had to set up a password through **System > Preferences > Remote Desktop**.
**Important Note:** As @slm described below, this method provides VNC access at user level. Meaning you can create multiple users and provide them VNC access separately. Each user will have a unique desktop. This wasn't exactly what I was looking for though!
Update 2 - VNC at System Level, like RDP on Windows
------
After implementing @slm's solution, I realised that this was what I actually had in mind when I asked this question. I followed exactly what he said. It's a lot simpler! Couple of things I would like to add:
- I didn't need to install x11vnc. I used only the vnc rpm that was installed by default.
- /etc/X11/xorg.conf
file was missing. To create it I did the following: (Source)
- As root run: Xorg :1 -configure
. This will create the file /root/xorg.conf.new
- cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
I followed rest of the instructions. Restarted gdm and Voila! It worked! I was able to see the login screen through VNC Viewer, exactly like RDP on Windows. It worked even after server restart. Great!

tcpdumping virtual network on the Oracle Virtual Server

I have tried all of the network types which are available on the Oracle Virtual Manager infrastructure. Simplest possible case:...
Is there a way to enable proper promiscuous mode in Oracle Virtual Server based virtual network?
It seems like card is getting only some percents of total network traffic.
I have tried all of the network types which are available on the Oracle Virtual Manager infrastructure.
Simplest possible case: "local" virtual network of three hosts, file is being transmitted from one to second host, third host is trying to tcpdump network. File is successfully transmitted, but third host has got only one packet from the start of file transfer.
I think it should be finetuned by usage of some xl commands. It can be some common problem on all of the Xen based virtualizations. What should be done to get traffic be seen to other network participants?
All network interfaces were created like with
OVM> create vnic name=capture_network_card network=local on vm id=${id}
where 'local' is the name of the virtual network type.
File transfer console log:
1.2.3.6# scp 1.2.3.4:*p ./
/etc/ssh/ssh_config line 57: Unsupported option "gssapiauthentication"
1.2.3.4's password:
file.pp 100% 126MB 110.5MB/s 00:01
Tcpdump on the third host:
-sh# tcpdump -i eth6
tcpdump: WARNING: eth6: no IPv4 address assigned
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth6, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
08:42:12.456647 IP 1.2.3.6.37610 > 1.2.3.4.ssh: Flags [S], seq 2743878644, win 29200, options [mss 1460,nop,wscale 10], length 0

Id = 105e4d86c5 [local]
Name = local
Locked = false
There is some other cards here at present, but they are irrelevant to the problem. I tried to create other hosts/cards but without any success in traffic capture.
Further findings:
If replay some PCAP files on such a network, capture card will see only some ICMP and ARP packets. It will see other packets only if replay traffic directly to the virtual host network adapter. I determine this adapters on the server through OVM and OVS consoles:
[ovm]# exec 'list network'|grep local
id:105e4d86c5 name:local
So the **105e4d86c5** is the network id.
Searching on the vmserver interfaces from this network **105e4d86c5**
[root@vmserver2 ~]# ip a |grep 105e4d86c5
16: 105e4d86c5: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP
19: vif1.2: mtu 1500 qdisc mq master 105e4d86c5 state UP qlen 32
37: vif3.6: mtu 1500 qdisc mq master 105e4d86c5 state DOWN qlen 32
44: vif3.6-emu: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master 105e4d86c5 state UNKNOWN qlen 500
if I tcpreplay traffic directly to this vif* adapters - their virtual hosts can tcpdump this packets for sure. But, if I run tcpreplay on virtual host and tcpdump on server - there will be no traffic again, tcpdump prints about packets 'dropped by kernel'.
I have very little experience with Xen, but the same configuration in VMWare is working like a charm.
Is there way at all to get working packet sniffing in oracle virtual network?

When I start the converted VM and try to use (Oracle Linux Server (3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64 with linux) 7.2 everything is working fine without any issue, how ever if I use (Oracle Linux Server (3.8.13-98.7.1.el7uek.x86_64 with unbreakable Enterprise Linux) I got Dracut rescue mode with the following error message (shown in the attached image)
I searched from some solution regarding this issue like executing
For further troubleshooting I opened "/run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt " file and found it contains errors as shown in the screen show below
I tried to execute the commands bellow but it filed

dracut -f
, edit /etc/fstab
manually (note the file appears fstab.empty creating a file manually did not help at all), check if I can edit /etc/default/grub
but the file dose not exist either, removing the corrupted kernel using rpm -e
I got the following error "kernel dose not exit" but if I try to install it using yum
or rpm
it failed since the kernel exist, I have tried to fix the LVM using the solution on Redhat portal , but I got the following error message "/run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: no such file or directory" (attaching a screen shot)

We have solaris zones running in [Sparc T5](https://blogs.oracle.com/orasysat/the-sparc-t5-servers-have-landed) server
Currently a solaris zone run Solaris 10 OS version.
$uname -a
SunOS zone01 5.10 Generic_150400-30 sun4v sparc sun4v
Going further, we would like this zone to run Solaris 11 OS version, because Solaris 10 OS is going End of Support.
-------------------------------------
Critical goal is: We do not want to build new solaris zones(Solaris OS 11) at any cost. We want existing zones to get upgraded to Solaris 11. Why do we use these zones? Because we have a business application running on it, which is the actual usage scenario.
My understanding for upgrade of zone is, shut down all solaris zones and upgrade Sparc T5 server(not solaris zone) from solaris 10 to solaris 11. Start solaris zones after upgrade of Sparc T5 server.
What is the recommended approach to upgrade an OS of an existing solaris zone?
Edit: I read that: "We can simply detach a Zone from one Global Zone (OS) and attach it to another Global Zone on another machine along with the application."
Can't a solaris 10 zone be migrated from version 10 global zone to version 11 global zone? And then upgrade the migrated zone...

What's missing in my grub2 configuration for PxE

I'm trying to automate the installation of physical servers using PxE. In this case I'm installing Oracle Virtual Servers (OVS for short, RHEL/Centos-like systems with Xen and custom linux kernel). I followed the steps outlined in the official documentation and implemented them using ansible.
To summarize I took in account some important notes:
- I'm using version 3.4.2 so I'm building my own boot loader for UEFI-based PXE clients.
- I'm using Oracle Linux 7.3 since it provides the grub2-tools package that is required to build the GRUB2 boot loader.
With ansible I configured my tftp, dhcp and http servers (for simplicity all of them in the same box) which all seem to be working as expected (tested downloading files and IP assignment and everything works). Here is how I'm building the boot loader
$ grub2-mkimage -p '(tftp,)' -O x86_64-efi -d -c -o /core.efi
Here is the current state of my grub2.cfg file:
set timeout=60
# Load modules
insmod net
insmod efinet
insmod tftp
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod efi_gop
insmod efi_uga
insmod video_bochs
insmod video_cirrus
insmod all_video
insmod ext2
insmod multiboot2
insmod normal
menuentry 'Install Oracle VM Server 3.4.2' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
# dhcp, tftp server in my network
set net_default_server=
# This is for testing
echo 'Network status: '
net_ls_addr
net_ls_routes
echo 'Loading Xen...'
multiboot2 /isolinux/xen.gz dom0_mem=max:11582M dom0_max_vcpus=20 noreboot
echo 'Loading Linux Kernel...'
module2 /isolinux/vmlinuz ip=dhcp vlanid= repo=http:///pxelinux/ISOs/OVS3.4.2 ks=http:///pxelinux/kickstart/ovs-3.4.2.ks ksdevice=
echo 'Loading initrd...'
module2 /isolinux/initrd.img
}
The server boots properly, the IP is being set, both the
core.efi
image and the grub2.cfg
file are being downloaded from the tftp server and I get the "Welcome to Grub!" message but just when it should run what's configured in the grub2.cfg
file this happens:
//Start PXE Over IPv4
Station IP Address is X.X.X.X
Server IP Address is X.X.X.X
NBP filename is /boot/grub2/core.efi
NBP filesize is 397824 Bytes
Downloading NBP file...
Succeed to download NBP file.
Downloading NBP file...
Succeed to download NBP file.
Welcome to GRUB!
Unknown command 'menuentry'.
Unknown command '#'.
Unknown command '#'.
Unknown command 'echo'.
efinet0
efinet0:local / efinet0
efinet0:default 0.0.0.0/0 gw
Unknown command 'echo'.
Unknown command 'echo'.
Unknown command 'echo'.
Unknown command '}'.
And finally I'm directed to the grub prompt, where I can type all the commands in the grub2.cfg file correctly and actually boot and install my system with kickstart. So I'm guessing I'm missing something in the grub2 image creation because it's like some modules are not being imported before running the grub2.cfg file?? Only certain commands are being run, the rest are "Unknown".

I'm running a linux VM guest inside a Win10 host. I assigned 3 cpu cores to the VM (out of the 4 cores of my i7 6600K).

Anyone knows what's going on?

I have install new solaris 10 in Virtual box in my pc. I have set below command as a root user.
bash-3.2#export DISPLAY=":0.0" DISPLAY
bash-3.2#xclock
It is working fine for root user but I have another user named: mamun
I have run xclock for "mamun" but it shows below error message.
$xclock
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
Error: Can't open display: :0.0
How can I solve this problem?
