Ok, this is strange.

When I type the IP address into my browser, I finally got the "It works!" page. (after over 24 hours of constant no sleep work).

However, I get no love from there, however. If I type my domain name www.nubodyorganics.com into the browser, nothing shows up (Page load error,Address not found). I also sat up a subdomain in my A/AAAA records and again no love coming my way - page load, address not found.

Here is my record:





Now, my thought was on the subdomain I created was all I had to do is create an entry into the record, named vps. I figured if www is a subdomain, then I would just add vps and it would work. No cname record was made. Here is my full record:

My domain is registered at godaddy and I sat the nameservers there to ns1 - 4.linode.com (individually of course).

I have installed cpanel/whm on the site (but obviously you cant see it. The whm is on the subdomain vps

I did not create a separate zone for the subdomain in the dns manager.

The reverse nameserver is as follows:

Current Reverse DNS
IP Address RDNS
72.14.182.41 72.14.182.41

Any ideas at all? I am getting so frustrated that I being to miss BlueHost. I even did a google search for managed cpanel vps hosting. I really like linode and I want to get this figured out.

Could it be my hostname setting? Could it be that my domain is not associated with the ip, I sat up the dns reord using: "add a new domain zone" and the select switch was Master".

Help would be very much appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance.

DNS seems to be resolving fine and I can ping your machine. It seems it is your webserver that isn't serving.

Is that a secondary IP address? I think that address is behaving as if it's not bound to your Linode.

I had 2 ips and that was going nowhere real fast so I got rid of one of them. So yes, I guess that was an addon domain, but when I deleted it from my account, it gave me an option of the ips and I just picked the first on up.

Well your problem is something to do with that. 72.14.182.41 is totally unresponsive, except to ping.

I believe it is too. Well it looks like I cancel this account and sign up again for a main ip bound to the account.

My linode is in dallas, is there a spot better?

I would just raise a support ticket about this; I'm sure it's something that can be straightened out quickly.

I shot them a ticket already about an hour ago - no response as of yet. I just tried calling, but no one answers. I wonder if I just add another linode to my account the delete the current one, if that would generate another ip or would it just give me more space?

Well, it is Sunday...

A new Linode would have a new IP. But I wouldn't be so eager to pitch 24 straight hours of work!

I know what you mean, but if that's the problem I know what to do now and can repeat what I worked on for over a day now rather quickly.

Support just shot me back an email stating that CentOS has a built in firewall that may be doing it. Said I could use system-config-securitylevel to configure it.

Don't even know where to begin with that one, except our friends over at slice host has a really good tutorial on setting up Centos 5.2 so I did the iptable adjustsments they recoomended hoping that would do the trick.

iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i ! lo -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j REJECT
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 30000 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 8 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -j REJECT
iptables -A FORWARD -j REJECT


service iptables save

No luck, site is still not responding. I did reboot after those adjustments

Here is the iptables -L results from using above (at least part of it, cant scroll up to copy any more and -p doesn't work)

Are you sure you are binding your services to that IP address? What do you get from the following commands?

# ifconfig
# netstat -ltn
