Another IP for Web Servers, Gameservers, XAMPP ?

Post by ShuffleScape »

Hello,

I recently bought another IP on my VDS. It's now configured on my VDS and added.

Now, I need to know how I can use it with Web Servers, Gameservers or XAMPP ? XAMPP is a program to make a free site on port 80 with apache and MySQL.

I am hosting a RuneScape Private Server (RSPS) for Gameservers.

Anyone can help me please ?

Thank you !

You will need to configure each of your services to use that IP. By default, most services bind to all IPs on the machine (0.0.0.0 is the shortcut for this), but have the option to specify a single IP to use, as well. The method of doing this varies from application to application.

Ok well I am trying to verify one of my servers from a site and I get this:


Error: shuffle-scape.no-ip.biz resolves to IPHERE, which does not match your ip, IPHERE.

Do you know some guides to configure it with my new IP ? I have no idea. :P

Thanks.

I don't know which site you're using there, but shuffle-scape.no-ip.biz currently resolves to 66.151.244.183.

Your individual applications should come with documentation on how to do this. In MySQL, you'll likely need to find the "my.cnf" configuration file (or at least, that's what it is called on Linux), and inside that file, you should find comments that explain how this is done. For Apache, it is "httpd.conf" or similar. XAMPP might also have its own way to allow you to change all of them at once.

I am using MoparScape Server Status site because I want to add the IP to the server list. Shuffle-Scape.no-ip.biz resolves to 66.151.244.183 on No-Ip, but when I verify my IP, it tells me to go to a URL on the internet to verify it, but my real IP is 66.151.244.196 and it says it doesn't work because it's not the same IP.

So, how do I vefiry my new IP that I just bought ?

And thanks for XAMPP, I will try to see.

I'm not familiar with the application that you are trying to run, but your game server most likely has a command-line option to choose a specific IP to use, if it is well-behaved, and you would need to use this when starting it.
