A lot of times I've seen questions about how this works when you have multiple nodes or a CDN, it can be quite tricky in theory if you have random IPs or several IPs. The way certbot works at least for non-DNS challenges is that it will hit a random server that it resolves to, you have no control over which one it hits. If certbot hits node 1 at first to tell it to create the well-known file, then checks node 2 or any other node, you will find auhorization fails.........

If you run nginx behind a CDN, you will by default see the proxy/CDNIPinstead of the real client. Edit the global http { part of nginx.conf and add this: # 1. Specify the IP address of your trusted proxy/load balancer set_real_ip_from 1.2.3.4; set_real_ip_from 5.2.3.4; # 2. Specify which header contains the real client IP real_ip_header X-Forwarded-For;........

After looking at several deployments of VMWare, we had one deployment where the company enabled balloon mode which is essentially a way to overcommit memory the hostnode(s) don't have. Let's say you have put your database into memory or use a cached service in Apache or haproxy/nginx. VMWare will start taking some portions of these and at some point it corrupts things and the application running will either crash, malfunction or segfault. Another factor is that OOMwill be........

The client needs a new connection for this request as the requested host name does not match the Server Name Indication (SNI) in use for this connection. Before reading this, I assume you've done all the proper troubleshooting and you are 100% sure the CDN and backend server is configured correctly. This can often happen........

Your frontend CDN (eg. Cloudflare or even your own load balancer/proxy) must be sending the X-Forwarded-For and you must be running Apache on the backend. This solves the problem where your logs and services will only see the proxy/CDN IP and not the real client IP. modremoteip is the most modern and current working solution Step 1.) Enable remoteip a2enmod remoteip Step 2.) Edit/Enable the correct config Edit t........

Just export these variables: export http_proxy="socks5://127.0.0.1:1234" export https_proxy="socks5://127.0.0.1:1234" The above example uses a socks 5 proxy at localhost and port 1234. This is a great way to improve performance of some activities for things like package installation, especially if your routing is not ideal to the repos.........

If you get this error, it is often because you have configured Apache with modules that weren't actually installed. Eg. you try to load the PHPmodule but didn't actually install the apache2 php module, so the server can't start. In general, this error can often be caused by issues with problematic modules and/or Apache being configured for modules that have not actually be installed (eg. libapache2-mod-php) is missing. The above results in this less than obv........

This is not about using ssh as a proxy, but rather, using a proxy when you are SSHing to another host and using ProxyCommand (where we normally use nc as our proxy tool). In newer versions of nc the syntax has changed to the following: ssh -o ProxyCommand="nc -x 127.0.0.1:1234" %h %p user@host The format must be like above in newer nc versions. Just be sure to change the 1234 to the port of your SOC........

If you visit a site that exploits the WebRTC vulnerability including whatismyipaddress.com it may show "Local IP Address" which would be the real IP of your machine.

The above works and happens even if you are using a proxy or VPNaccount like ProVPNAccounts.com It is easy........

So say you are behind a typical NAT/LAN setup whether at home, work or while travelling. What if you have a computer or server that you need to connect to from the outside?

This is a simple fix but not a simple problem and it still doesn't make sense to me. But in a nutshell if your target proxy server works fast when accessing directly over SSL then this may be your issue. It seems SSL does not play nicely when the target proxy destination/host has a riduculously long key (such as 8192 bits long). Now this is normally not a problem, in fact the target server could be accessed with hardly any delay directly despite such a long key.........

There are a few ways of doing this and all basically involve using the reverse proxy or "ProxyPass" feature of Apache to accomplish it. 1.) Create a normal vhost and simply symlink the root directory of the site you want to mirror. Eg. originalsite.com and newsite.com /vhosts/originalsite.com/httpdocs You would symlink like this: ln -s /vhosts/originalsite.com/httpdocs vhosts/originalsite.com/........

You can find it for free at http://nginx.org/ I find nginx is simpler to setup than pound (it's not hard but I found it unintuitive and annoying), it seemed to make some basic setups overly complicated with the config file syntax. nginx on the other hand is perfectly suited in everyway, it is even simpler to setup and seems to be the most stable and most efficient any load balancer.

I have played around with Pound a little bit. It is a reverse proxy and load balancer in one, and it can be used as only a reverse proxy if you like. It is very simple to configure as either, and Pound even senses if one of the systems is down and stops sending requests to the dead server. It supports SSL (but passes the request to the destination server unencrypted) and even the Apache log format. Pound is very simple, fast a........
