Aim and Objective :

Network and Information Security are the much required and indispensable properties in todays global cyber scenario. Implementing Security measures are very much important as the maintenance of the required data and servers. This project basically takes into account all the security measures of two different kinds of servers, i.e- Web server and DNS(Domain Name System) Server, by enforcing manual firewall measures and making sure that unauthorised access to the particular servers can\'t be achieved at all. The two servers are configured from scratch and different web domains are hosted on it. The implementation takes into account the fact that access to the servers through telnet, ftp or any such means is not allowed for unauthorised persons. The main intent of this project is to show the implementation of security measures on different kinds of servers.

Methodology
1) We first install Red Hat Enterprise Limted (RHEL) Operating System with the help of Virtual Machine. 2) Once the installation is done, then RHEL acts as the Server and the host system operating system (Windows 7 or MAC OS) acts as the client. 3) Since the server and the client should be in the same network, so we use the ifconfig command to find out the ip address of the client operating system and accordingly change the server ip address using netconfig command. 4) Then we telnet to check if the server and client are connected. 5) Then we use the file transfer protocol (ftp) to transfer the webmin installation file from client to server. 6) Then we install the webmin on the server system using the command rpm ivh webmin. 7) Webmin is installed at port no. 10000 by default. 8) To check if the webmin is installed successfully or not, we go to the client side browser and we input the server address:10000 in the url. Eg :http://192.168.113.10:10000 9) Next and one of the most important step in the project is the creation of a Domain Name Server (DNS) 10) In the webmin IDE, we first go to server zone and create a domain name server using create master zone. 11) There, we input the necessary details like domain name/network, server address, master server name and hence create a master zone. 12) Then we edit the master zone that we have created in the previous step and bind the addresses to the domain name. 13) We can select as many address as we want under the same domain name. For example we bind these addresses www.mywebpage.com, mail.mywebpage.com , mywebpage.com to 192.168.113.10. 14) The above steps completes the creation of a DNS. 15) Next we create a Apache Web Server. 16) To create a web server, we go to create Virtual Host and then input the specific address as the server address and the document root is the place where the html pages will be saved. 17) HTML file is created and is saved in the address mentioned in the above step. The name of the first page should always be index.html.

18) In the terminal of the server side, the various services like network, httpd,xinetd,named are started. 19) We add the ip address of the server in the DNS in the network preferences at the client side. 20) We bind the domain and start the apache web server and apply all the changes we have made. 21) Finally on the client side browser, we input the domain that we have created in the URL and check for the output.
