That was an easy one 🙂

@ajstringham I cannot help sorry, I just turned up 4 websites on my CentOS7 server. all working perfectly.

I figured out the issue. I had everything set up correctly. Turns out my NoIP settings were wrong. Once I fixed those (that is what actually fixed it), it all started working! @scottalanmiller helped out tremendously! Thanks all!

this is for a $300 device, and a company that only has 7 tunnels (and won't hit 20 for a couple years).

Have you looked at the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite instead? Only $99 and I would expect it to handle way more than 20 IPsec tunnels.

I mentioned the edge router 8 up there. I've never messed with one so i was looking for hands on from somebody.

I have 10 (may be one more I lost track) of the Ubiquiti EdgeMax LITE (ERL) in production. I only use OpenVPN tunnels at the moment because they are easier to work with and I am not approaching the bandwidth limit of OpenVPN on the hardware (~10-14mbps encrypted). Not a single site I have an ERL installed at has a pipe that can push out more then 10mbps, so I will never have a problem with this for now. I do have one IPSEC tunnel up to a home user that I have not sent a new router yet and it has no issues either.

The ERL I have at my home office has a tunnel to every single one of the remote ERL at my clients and it never blinks.

Using IPSEC you can get throughput in the 100+mbps range with the ERL. The difference between IPSEC and OpenVPN is that the IPSEC encryption can be offloaded to hardware while the OpenVPN encryption all has to be done on the processor.

I REALLY need to take the time to look at setting this up

Talk to @Katie she runs ours. It's a good system. Very enterprise.

I need it for the same reason you guys use it.

I've had little issue with stability with any MS OS since 2000. That was the last flaky one for me. NT4, XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1 have all been solid. Windows 8.1 does seem exceptionally solid, though.

So I downloaded the Install for windows 8.1 Pro and it opened up but when I enter the key I got from the $14 thing way back when MS was offering it I get a messages that says this product key didn't work. Check it and try again. So Do I have to install windows 8 and then Windows 8.1? or what. Seems like a windows 8 key should work fine.

I'm using the ones on this page: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

Install 8 first. Something about it will make it take the key. Mine wouldn't take the Windows 8 Pro key until I upgraded to 8.1 though. Really freaking weird...

who said good samaritans don't exist?

Kinda neat idea.

Interesting.. I'll have to see if this is an issue of mine as well.
Thanks

Wow ESXI is in no way linux, It doesn't even use a Linux Kernel it used a VMware custom made one. I'm not even sure if Xen does or not and that's a linux project.

Xen itself is Linux free. But 99% of deployments use Linux in the Dom0.

Well, that's what marketing has become. Keywords, essentialy #'s for consumers.

Only because it works. Marketers would use whatever customers make work. Customers drive the change.

That's debatable. Most people simply accept what they're given, in this context. The media pushes something, people accept it and further the process. It's like how everyone wears American Eagle, Hollister, Aeropostale, etc shirts. We're walking billboards. We want those shirts because everyone else does and they want it because they think it makes them cool, based on what they've been told/heard from the media. It all starts somewhere.

In this case it starts with the consumers. As they are the ones assuming claims that are not made.

I hate that they keep changing the names. Really lowers the value of the certs.

Great. I am looking forward to some serious feedback on it. It is a really exciting project.

SD and SSD really are the same thing. Just different cases, sizes or what have you. SD are perfectly reliable and usable for all kinds of general storage needs. There is a reason why so many systems today, from Raspberry Pi to Chomebooks use nothing except SD for their storage needs.

@ajstringham What is it currently doing/what's your error?

The site currently loads my site correctly but not the other website. Everything appears to be setup correctly. I can't figure out what the issue is.

Assuming this is still hosted internally, is your hairpin NAT rules picking up the second DNS name and rerouting appropriately? I cannot think of a scenario that wouldn't since it should all revolve around the IP, but just another thing to check.

Hairpin NAT rules?

When you host stuff at home, you will have a problem with NAT.

daerma.com resolves publicly my current IP.
but the internal server is on a local IP of course.
By default that means daerma.com should not be reachable from inside my network. because a DNS lookup will return the public IP. A router running standard NAT masquerade rules will not route it correctly because it is targeting the WAN port of the router from the LAN.
So there were special NAT rules called hairpining designed to handle it.

Almost every home router has it enabled by defualt. I have no idea how dd-wrt handles it, other than to know it has the functionality.

Uh... how, um, exciting for you?
