Notice: By NAT we mean this third server should be located on a private network. It access the internet via the second server as gateway, but cannot be accessed from outside of his private network.
Network configuration example:
hostname2$ cat /proc/net/dev eth0 ... (internet) eth1 ... (private network) hostname2# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward hostname2# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -o eth0 \ -j MASQUERADE hostname3# ping gnu.org (ok) hostname1# ping HOSTNAME3 (ko: Destination Host Unreachable)
Join collection with the third server as we seen previously (Scenario 5).
Edit the configuration on both second and third server:
hostname2$ cat /etc/mediatex/mdtx.conf … networks private1, www gateways private1 … hostname3$ cat /etc/mediatex/mdtx.conf … networks private1 … hostname2$ mediatex upgrade hostname3$ mediatex upgrade
With this settings, the second server will relay queries and contents between the first and the third server: (see notify)
Checking it:
First, share the ex-cd2
support with the collection on
hostname3.
hostname3$ mediatex add supp ex-cd2 on \ /usr/share/mediatex/misc/logoP2.iso hostname3$ mediatex add supp ex-cd2 to coll hello
Once first server have reloaded, it will notify queries to the second server (via CRON) which will relay them to the third one.
hostname1$ mediatex upgrade hostname1$ mediatex srv notify
PUBLISHER on hostname3 is now asked to provide the supports it shares.
hostname3$ mediatex motd hostname3$ mediatex check supp ex-cd2 on \ /usr/share/mediatex/misc/logoP2.iso
Once third server notify, second server will copy (and extract) the files needed by server 1.
hostname3$ mediatex srv notify hostname2$ mediatex srv extract hostname2$ ls ~mdtx/cache/mdtx-hello/logo*
Finally second server notify and then first server copies the requested file and delivers a mail to advice the USER it becomes available.
hostname2$ mediatex srv notify hostname1$ mediatex srv extract
