tarvidinstalled webmin-slbackup and it does not appear in the webmin menus04:25
tarvidthe module appears to have been installed /usr/share/webmin/slbackup/WebminSLBackup.pm04:26
tarvidit is in webmin.acl04:26
tarvidit is not in module.infos.cache04:27
tarvidit is in module.info in the source04:29
tarvidi have both /usr/share/webmin-1.250 and /usr/share/webmin04:34
tarvidslbackup is in /usr/share/webmin but not in /usr/share/webmin-1.25004:34
tarvidcould that be the problem?04:35

tarvidAfter much stumbling about, I found the problem. webmin updates via different directories in /usr/share05:08
tarvidubuntu installs to a directory without the version suffix05:08

=== Mercury [i=warp@c-71-56-76-189.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-server
MercuryI'm trying to move my server over from the user land NFS server with ugidd (which more or less works, but which has some Issues), to NFSv4 with the kernel land NFS server.06:44
MercuryAt the moment I have some progress, it gets mounted fine, ls -l on stuff shows the proper usernames, with the ones that only exist on the server shown as nobody.06:45
MercuryHowever as best I can tell, for actually _accessing_ files the raw UID is used, and I can't for the life of me figure out _why_.06:45
MercuryAny suggestions?06:46
MercuryYep, it is most definitely doing the proper translation when going from the server to the client, but it doesn't seem to be for going from the client to the server.06:51
=== zenrox [n=zenrox@71.115.198.118] has joined #ubuntu-server
MercuryAnd..  I don't know enough about the workings of nfsv4 to debug this properly, hrm.07:00
lionelpNFSv4 is not currently considered as stable07:05
lionelpit is still exeperimenting stuff07:05
MercuryUnderstood, but I'd still like to track down this problem.07:07
lionelpI search the web few weeks ago, and i do not found viable informations :-(07:07
lionelpyes, no pb07:08
MercuryDid you have the same problem?07:08
lionelpnon, i did not try yet to migrate NFSv407:08

=== mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-server
MercuryAlright, this has one, simple, itty bitty question..  Why the hell is the client sending back UIDs instead of names?08:20
spikeMercury: what's the subject? LDAP?08:25
Mercuryspike: NFSv4.08:26
Mercuryspike: I have a problem, after poking at things a bit I've come to the conclusion that the clients are not sending user names back, they are sending UIDs back, which makes no sense at all.08:27
=== hunger [n=tobias@p54A60CA3.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-server
spikeMercury: uh, sending back user names? what are you doing and what's not working?08:35
spikeMercury: have you run tcpdump and sniffed the traffic? that would clear out any doubt on what clients are sending back08:36
Mercuryspike: I have.08:37
Mercuryspike: The server is sending <user>@<domain>, nice and dandy.08:37
Mercuryspike: The client is sending the UIDs, not even in ASCII.08:37
Mercuryspike: This, of course, completely breaks the ID mapping.08:37
Mercuryspike: And I can't figure out _WHY_.08:38
Mercuryspike: Any ideas?  Any at all?08:43
Mercuryspike: A known working configuration?  Anything that might help?08:43
spikeMercury: nope, sorry, I thought it was some ldap related prob08:54
Mercuryspike: Alright.09:02
