Nafallo | troy: agreed | 02:38 |
Nafallo | but then, that depends what the central server should have done :-P | 02:38 |
troy | probably file and print, I'm assuming | 02:38 |
Nafallo | could aswell have been routing involved aswell :-) | 02:39 |
Nafallo | hmm | 02:39 |
Nafallo | scratch one "aswell" ;-) | 02:39 |
troy | :) | 02:39 |
troy | I hate doing routing on multi-nic machines - maybe it's better in modern kernels, but it used to stink | 02:41 |
=== troy just uses dedicated hardware now | ||
Nafallo | I do that. 2 nics :-). | 02:43 |

shtylman | can anyone here give any advice on how to set up a homeserver...I have ubuntu on the server already and am looking to buy two more harddrives and put them in raid 1 | 04:02 |
shtylman | then question is what should I do with the hd that I have in the server right now? | 04:02 |
shtylman | can I just run the server from that hd and create symbolic links to the raid storage drives | 04:02 |
shtylman | would that be a viable alternative | 04:02 |

fabbione | hi everybody | 06:00 |
ajmitch | hi fabbione | 06:02 |
fabbione | hmm lot LP requests.. | 06:06 |
fabbione | will process them this evening or tomorrow | 06:06 |
fabbione | i am out for a talk all day | 06:06 |
polvi | hey, i heard rumors that ubuntu was working on a rhn equivent product... anyone heard of this? | 06:07 |
fabbione | polvi: i think you heard wrong | 06:07 |
polvi | equivalent* | 06:07 |
polvi | fabbione: ah ok | 06:08 |
polvi | thats too bad - there really is no good host management app | 06:10 |
fabbione | polvi: hold on.. by RHN i understood the pay service they offer for security | 06:10 |
fabbione | and upgrades | 06:10 |
fabbione | if you mean just the "applet" to do upgrades | 06:10 |
fabbione | there is already | 06:11 |
polvi | yeah, upgrades and security... but they also do stuff like deploying configs | 06:11 |
polvi | and a place to add information about the hosts | 06:11 |
fabbione | we have all of that already | 06:11 |
fabbione | info on the host is hwdb.ubuntu.com | 06:11 |
fabbione | updates and security is there | 06:11 |
fabbione | if you need to clone machines there is the equivalent of their kickstart for Ubuntu | 06:12 |
polvi | hmm, like, a place where I can look at my entire infrastructure from the web, see which ones are not updated -- what updates are needed -- deploy updates if need be | 06:13 |
fabbione | not at that level.. no | 06:13 |
fabbione | it's a good suggestion but not just -server related | 06:13 |
fabbione | that's more global ubuntu | 06:13 |
polvi | hmm | 06:13 |
fabbione | you should consider posting the idea to ubuntu-devel mailing list | 06:13 |
polvi | i would imagine this as an app someone would install within their infrastructure | 06:14 |
fabbione | write down these ideas on the wiki | 06:14 |
polvi | which? | 06:14 |
fabbione | and add them as specs in launchpad | 06:14 |
fabbione | wiki.ubuntu.com | 06:14 |
fabbione | create a brand new spec | 06:14 |
fabbione | post the link to ubuntu-devel | 06:15 |
polvi | ok | 06:15 |
fabbione | and seek for consensum | 06:15 |
fabbione | that's the best way to get involved and push your ideas | 06:15 |
polvi | consensum, should I use that word :P | 06:15 |
polvi | ? | 06:15 |
fabbione | it might work, it might not | 06:15 |
fabbione | sure, if you want | 06:15 |
polvi | heh | 06:15 |
polvi | thanks for the pointer | 06:15 |
polvi | fabbione: do you work for ubuntu? | 06:15 |
fabbione | no problem | 06:15 |
fabbione | yes | 06:15 |
polvi | how many -server folks are there? | 06:15 |
fabbione | me and another guy | 06:16 |
polvi | sweet | 06:16 |
fabbione | plus other random people that do other bits | 06:16 |
fabbione | like the kernel and so on | 06:16 |
polvi | do you physically work together? or is it all remote? | 06:16 |
fabbione | all remote | 06:16 |
polvi | cool | 06:17 |
polvi | i think this -server stuff is great | 06:17 |
polvi | i really hope it is all successful | 06:17 |
polvi | by register a new spec, does that mean create a new project? | 06:19 |
fabbione | no | 06:19 |
fabbione | it means creating a new spec :) | 06:19 |
polvi | ah, finally found the line! | 06:22 |
polvi | had to go ubuntu -> spec | 06:22 |
polvi | any particular place in the wiki? | 06:24 |
fabbione | polvi: not really.. just give it a sensible name :) | 06:24 |
polvi | wiki.u.c/Blah ? | 06:24 |
fabbione | yeah | 06:25 |
ajmitch | and you can probably use SpecTemplate when creating the page | 06:25 |
polvi | you guys are good | 06:28 |
polvi | like a tag team | 06:28 |
polvi | :D | 06:28 |
polvi | ok, i will do this once i get back to the hotel | 06:31 |
polvi | thanks for holding my hand finding the pages | 06:31 |
polvi | :P | 06:31 |
fabbione | no problem :) | 06:33 |
fabbione | you are welcome | 06:33 |

fabbione | yes | 08:16 |
polvi | i would like a little feedback before i ship this off to ubuntu-devel: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/serverland | 08:17 |
polvi | (if you have time) | 08:17 |
fabbione | i don't now.. i will look at them tomorrow | 08:17 |
polvi | ok | 08:17 |
fabbione | i am flying out to another city in 20 minutes or so | 08:17 |
polvi | no problem | 08:17 |
fabbione | you can still ask feedback on -devel | 08:18 |
fabbione | don't be afraid of that | 08:18 |
polvi | ah ok | 08:18 |
=== polvi tough'ns up | ||
fabbione | remember that you might not be the only one with these requests | 08:20 |
fabbione | and asking more people for review will improve the use cases and details on the implementation | 08:20 |
fabbione | you might have missed a detail or a corner case and so on | 08:20 |
polvi | yeah | 08:20 |
polvi | i hope so | 08:20 |
fabbione | when we write specs, it's always a bunch of people that discuss and write | 08:21 |
fabbione | never one alone.. | 08:21 |
fabbione | also-- you might want to start CC ubuntu-server mailing list | 08:22 |
fabbione | since we have one :) | 08:22 |
polvi | start CC? | 08:22 |
polvi | CC it when I send the email to -devel? | 08:23 |
fabbione | CC = CarbonCopy :) | 08:23 |
fabbione | yeps | 08:23 |
fabbione | it will drag attention to the new mailing list | 08:23 |
polvi | yeah, i know CC, just thought you meant subscribe to it or something | 08:23 |
fabbione | and we will move there afterall since the spec is -server related | 08:23 |
fabbione | well you need to be subscribed to post | 08:24 |
fabbione | or wait for me to approve the message | 08:24 |
polvi | fine fine | 08:24 |
polvi | i will subscribe | 08:24 |
polvi | :D | 08:24 |
fabbione | both ways work for me :) | 08:24 |
fabbione | it will just take longer | 08:24 |
polvi | ok, subscribed to both | 08:25 |
polvi | lets see how this goes... | 08:25 |
fabbione | ok.. i am taking off | 08:25 |
fabbione | later | 08:25 |
polvi | bye, have a safe flight | 08:25 |
fabbione | thanks, but i will have to rely on $cheapcompany pilots :) | 08:25 |
polvi | heh | 08:25 |
fabbione | my flight licence is expired :/ | 08:26 |
polvi | bust | 08:26 |
polvi | sounds like you need to get away from the computer more :) | 08:26 |

Nafallo | 128MB for the desktop. | 07:35 |

gentoome | damn | 07:36 |
gentoome | i need a small OS that uses gnome | 07:43 |
gentoome | any suggestions? | 07:43 |
Nafallo | well, since server needs 64, and the diffrence between server and desktop is gnome, I'm lead to belive there is a reason you need atleast 128MB named gnome :-P. | 07:45 |
Nafallo | you might want to try xubuntu with XFCE4. and the correct channel for those questions are probably #ubuntu :-). | 07:46 |

Pygi | thank you ;) | 07:48 |
Pygi | hehe ;) | 07:48 |
Nafallo | ? | 07:48 |
Pygi | hehe, why the question mark? | 07:49 |
Nafallo | cause I don't understand what you mean ;-) | 07:49 |
Pygi | ah, I asked you to explain me what is "Kernel" and what is "Linux" ;) | 07:50 |
gentoome | ouch | 07:51 |
Nafallo | maybe you should try #ubuntu with that question? | 07:52 |
Nafallo | :-) | 07:52 |
gentoome | lol ouch again | 07:52 |
gentoome | google might help more | 07:52 |
