| sebest | and integrates in glib/qt mainloop | 12:04 |
| Pygi | Like the last 4 API's/frameworks I heard about were using DBUS :) | 12:05 |
| Pygi | DBUS became popular :P | 12:05 |
| sebest | we'll provide an alternative IPC soon as dbus is not working on windows AFAIK | 12:05 |
| Pygi | heh :P | 12:06 |

| Psi-Jack | You using it with saslauthd? | 11:19 |

| Psi-Jack | Yep | 11:32 |
| Psi-Jack | I had to change saslauthd's mux dir. heh | 11:32 |
| Pygi | k, great :) | 11:32 |
| Psi-Jack | Thankfully, ONLY postfix needs saslauthd on this system. | 11:32 |
| Psi-Jack | And now... | 11:36 |
| Psi-Jack | To see how exactly postfix does it's sasl-auth dn for ldap. LOL | 11:37 |
| Psi-Jack | Holy sheeit. | 11:38 |
| Psi-Jack | Hehe. | 11:38 |
| Psi-Jack | slapd's log scrolled so fast doing ldap stuff that postfix also uses, so I couldn't even see the actual smtp-auth's sasl bind. LOL | 11:39 |
| fabbione | Pygi: nice thanks | 11:40 |
| Psi-Jack | There a fast way to get to the EOF in vim? | 11:40 |
| Pygi | fabbione: yw | 11:43 |
| Psi-Jack | Ahh, good, it's working just like cyrus-imapd. Mapping it to use uid=username@domainname instead of uid=username,cn=domainname | 11:43 |
| Pygi | fabbione: I'll *start* playing with that puting /etc under bzr control | 11:44 |

| Psi-Jack | Excelent. :) | 11:46 |
| Psi-Jack | You know. | 11:46 |
| JulienH | Hi all | 11:46 |
| Psi-Jack | It's a pain in the a** to setup postfix and cyrus-imapd alone, but to toss in ldap on the blend is even more painful. | 11:47 |
| JulienH | Will the webmin package (or anything like that) be moved from universe to main ? I'm asking because of the security support issue. | 11:47 |
| Psi-Jack | Heh. I've been wondering. Things in main get the security updates, but what about things in universe? | 11:48 |
| JulienH | In uni | 11:48 |
| JulienH | http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components : "but it comes with no guarantee of security fixes and support" | 11:48 |
| Psi-Jack | Oh.. Goodie. | 11:49 |
| Psi-Jack | I noticed, cyrus-imapd got moved to universe. | 11:49 |
| Psi-Jack | Then again. cyrus-imapd itself, is pretty damn secure. | 11:49 |
| Psi-Jack | Once I get /all/ of my mailserver stuff setup, everything internally will be TLS encrypted. | 11:50 |
| Pygi | to my knowledge webmin doesn't exist in dapper | 11:51 |
| JulienH | The fact that a package is considered secure or well coded doesn't resolve the security fixes support issue... | 11:51 |
| Psi-Jack | Well, lets see.. | 11:51 |
| Psi-Jack | apt-cache search webmin on a dapper system.. Results in VERY few matches. | 11:52 |
| JulienH | Pygi: It is in Dapper -> http://tinyurl.com/mcnng | 11:52 |
| Psi-Jack | JulienH: I see.. 4 | 11:52 |
| Psi-Jack | And they're all just modules. Not even the actual webmin main part. | 11:53 |
| JulienH | Psi-Jack: oh man, sorry, I've badly looked... :/ | 11:53 |
| Pygi | JulienH: hehe, np :) | 11:54 |
| Psi-Jack | I only really know this because I moved one of my servers to use dapper. | 11:54 |
| Psi-Jack | Because cyrus-imapd 2.2.x was only in Dapper. | 11:54 |
| Psi-Jack | Since that server literally /only/ does cyrus-imapd, with it's imapd, pop3d, lmtpd, sieve, etc.. I figured it was "sane" enough. | 11:55 |
| JulienH | But... why was webmin removed from Dapper ? It's a very useful software and is used on some prod servers... | 11:55 |
| Psi-Jack | On yeah, and it's nntpd. :) | 11:55 |
| Pygi | Psi-Jack: are you subscribed to -server mailing list? | 11:55 |
| Psi-Jack | I, personally, haven't seen much usefulness in webmin. | 11:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Pygi: Not yet., | 11:55 |
| Psi-Jack | I will be in a few mins. :) | 11:56 |
| Psi-Jack | Hmm | 11:57 |
| Psi-Jack | Where is it? | 11:57 |
| Pygi | Psi-Jack: it is hidden, yes I know :) | 11:57 |
| Psi-Jack | heh | 11:57 |
| JulienH | I can see a dapper-changes list, but not server list.... https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ | 11:57 |
| Pygi | second psi jack | 11:57 |
| Psi-Jack | https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server/ ? | 11:58 |
| Pygi | yes, that one :) | 11:58 |
| Psi-Jack | Just had to manually type it in. | 11:58 |
| JulienH | Thanks, I'm subscribing now... | 11:59 |
| Pygi | psi-jack: are you ready to do a little testing for us? :) | 11:59 |
| Psi-Jack | Pygi: What kind? | 11:59 |
| Pygi | Psi-Jack: the ubuntu repositories contain a -server kernels... *dapper repositories* | 11:59 |
| Psi-Jack | Ohh, really? hardened kernels? | 11:59 |
| Pygi | run them and let people do whatever they do on that servers, report stability, issues, etc :) | 12:00 |
| Pygi | we need all kind of reports we can get | 12:00 |
| Psi-Jack | That a hardened kernel? :) | 12:00 |
| Pygi | yes, that's a server-tuned kernel | 12:00 |
| Psi-Jack | What's it got? PaX, GRsecure, SElinux? | 12:01 |
| Pygi | not sure about that, sorry :-/ | 12:01 |
| Psi-Jack | That makes a difference. :) | 12:02 |
| Pygi | I just upgraded the kernel yesterday, and it seems stable | 12:02 |
| Psi-Jack | If using a PaX+GRsecure+SElinux kernel, one must know, so that can properly facilitate which tools are required to actually setup the hardening. | 12:02 |
| Pygi | you'll have to ask fabbione that once he's here... | 12:03 |
| Psi-Jack | fabbione: What about the twinkie? | 12:03 |
| Pygi | psi: fabbione's eating :P | 12:03 |
| Psi-Jack | Ironic that I mentioned twinkie, then, huh? | 12:03 |
| Psi-Jack | :) | 12:04 |
| Psi-Jack | What's -server's List-Id? | 12:04 |
| JulienH | How the package selection for Dapper is done ? | 12:04 |
| Psi-Jack | JulienH: Umm. The same ways as always? | 12:04 |
| Pygi | JulienH: what do you mean? | 12:04 |
| Psi-Jack | I sooo need to hurry up and switch to syslog-ng instead of syslog/klogd | 12:05 |
| Pygi | ah, well :) | 12:05 |
| Psi-Jack | Anyone her using syslog-ng? | 12:05 |
| Psi-Jack | Just wondering if it's pre-canned just like syslog/klogd are, or if it has a totally different setup. | 12:06 |
| Pygi | JulienH: as always, only main repository is supported for the amount of time stated | 12:06 |
| JulienH | Pygi: for example, who decides if the webmin package will be or not in Dapper | 12:06 |
| Pygi | the Ubuntu Developers team/Technical board | 12:06 |
| fabbione | Psi-Jack: twinkie? | 12:07 |
| Pygi | also, only server packages will be supported on -server | 12:07 |
| Pygi | you can't install ubuntu-desktop and want it to be supported same as -server | 12:07 |
| Psi-Jack | fabbione: Hehe. Ever seen Ghost Busters? | 12:07 |
| JulienH | Pygi: of course, that makes sense :) | 12:07 |
| Pygi | JulienH: well, just wanted to make it clear :) | 12:08 |
| fabbione | Psi-Jack: yeah.. i did.. in italian.. twinkies do tell me much.. sorry :/ | 12:08 |
| Psi-Jack | Hehe | 12:08 |
| JulienH | Pygi: well, if webmin isn't in Dapper, is there any equivalent package (web-based server administration tool) in ? | 12:09 |
| Psi-Jack | fabbione: I was wondering, since Pygi brought it up. What's with the -server kernels? What's it got in it? PaX, GRsecure, SElinux? | 12:09 |
| Pygi | JulienH: currently? no...there is no officialy supported web admin tool | 12:09 |
| fabbione | selinux is there, can be enabled with a boot option | 12:09 |
| Pygi | but a few might emerge in universe | 12:09 |
| Psi-Jack | fabbione: Is that the only one? | 12:09 |
| fabbione | PaX and GR no | 12:09 |
| Psi-Jack | Hmm. | 12:09 |
| Psi-Jack | Odd.. | 12:10 |
| fabbione | Psi-Jack: yes, it's the only one in mainline | 12:10 |
| Psi-Jack | I would have gone with PaX+GRsecure before going just SElinux.. | 12:10 |
| fabbione | and we don't plan to add them at all. Previous reviews of the code made as run away yelling and screaming | 12:10 |
| fabbione | Psi-Jack: it's not a problem of learning curve here | 12:10 |
| fabbione | it's a problem of supporting the solutions | 12:10 |
| Psi-Jack | Heh. | 12:11 |
| fabbione | it's very difficult to support PaX and GRsecure in time | 12:11 |
| Psi-Jack | Guess I won't be testing -server kernels afterall. ;) | 12:11 |

| fabbione | Pygi: usually that list is discussed the week after release | 12:12 |
| JulienH | Pygi: 'cause it would be great to see a package like webmin. In this idea: "insert the Dapper CD, install, reboot and administrate your server smoothly and remotely !" | 12:12 |
| fabbione | when we will be writing specs and so on | 12:12 |

| fabbione | JulienH: people in here that knows me a bit more will confirm that i am *cough*ALWAYS*cough* right :) | 03:53 |
| fabbione | asw: so when do you plan the deployment of such beast? | 03:54 |
| fabbione | and most important thing.. can i get access with a distcc setup? :P | 03:54 |
| JulienH | fabbione: don't be so modest :P | 03:55 |
| asw | we hope to get the first rack in may/june | 03:55 |
| asw | we are getting test nodes today. | 03:55 |
| fabbione | nice | 03:55 |
| fabbione | asw: what software do you plan to run on top? | 03:55 |

| asw | basically our application could use 5 terrabytes of RAM if it was availabe. Just a big hash table. | 03:55 |
| asw | So next year I hope that 4gb SDRAM is as cheap as 2gb x 2 and we can get a 3 terrabyte cluster. ;) | 03:56 |
| maswan | :) | 03:56 |
| fabbione | next year your app will be able to use 50GB | 03:56 |
| fabbione | 50T | 03:56 |
| asw | laughing. true. | 03:56 |
| fabbione | asw: what do you do with all that "old" ram? :) | 03:57 |
| asw | it's been a crazy couple of months since UBZ | 03:57 |
| asw | no no. I'm talking about buying a new 3terrabyte cluster not throwing away the old one! | 03:57 |
| fabbione | ah | 03:57 |
| fabbione | so you would go up to 4.5T | 03:58 |
| asw | the budget calls for two. one this year, one next. But there are lots of variables. I've got vendors sorted out but I need to sort out heat/power/space | 03:58 |
| maswan | asw: Heh. Yeah, we're hitting that limit in our current machine room now. | 03:58 |
| asw | fabbione 4.5t + ~.5 we will have by may june. | 03:58 |
| fabbione | asw: cool | 03:59 |
| maswan | asw: Some vendors say nice things about in-rack 48V DC | 03:59 |
| asw | a few months ago. I didn't admin anything. this is all somewhat new to me. When I was buying hardware seriously it was 1993... | 04:00 |
| maswan | Heh | 04:00 |
| asw | well, more like, 1993-1998 | 04:00 |
| asw | back then 16mb of ram was a lot. | 04:00 |
| maswan | Well, we do keep track of this stuff since the last buy was a bit more than a year ago, and the next one should probably start procurement procedure in half a year | 04:01 |

| maswan | athlon64? sempron? | 04:17 |
| setuid | Sec. | 04:21 |
| setuid | http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1219286&CatId=0 | 04:21 |
| maswan | ah, socket 754 athlon64 | 04:28 |
| maswan | well, it depends, how much memory bandwidth do you need? | 04:28 |
| setuid | Sorry, was distracted calling in another ticket. | 04:40 |
| setuid | I just want something faster than my ageing 1.2Ghz AMD Duron | 04:40 |
| maswan | well, it should be 2-3 times faster anyway | 04:41 |
| setuid | heh | 04:41 |
| setuid | What should I be looking for, in a sub-$1,000/USD range? | 04:41 |
| maswan | well, that might be resonable | 04:44 |
| setuid | Hrm | 04:45 |
| setuid | Ok, its going to replace a 1.2Ghz Duron and a dual PIII/600 machine | 04:45 |
| setuid | I'll get two of these I guess | 04:45 |
| maswan | you might want to look at getting a slightly beefier cheapest x2 though | 04:46 |
| maswan | unless you do need to have those separate | 04:46 |
| setuid | x2? | 04:46 |
| maswan | dual core thingie | 04:47 |
| setuid | Ah | 04:47 |
| setuid | I wonder if I can afford that ;-( | 04:49 |
| maswan | well, it depends, it'll be cheaper than two lower end servers | 04:50 |
| maswan | but more expensive, if you still need two | 04:50 |
| setuid | Here we go | 04:56 |
| setuid | http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1617476&CatId=1991 | 04:56 |
| maswan | heh. the 4-socket machines with opteron 8xx are really expensive | 04:59 |
| setuid | Right, but I could run vmware or something and virtualize the hell out of it | 05:00 |
| maswan | sure | 05:00 |
| setuid | Hrm, or... | 05:00 |
| setuid | http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1740080&CatId=1991 | 05:01 |
| setuid | For roughly the same price as the two duals... | 05:01 |
| maswan | for better price/performance, I'd go for duals | 05:01 |
| setuid | Right, but it reduces me to a single point of failure | 05:02 |
| setuid | And a single IO path on the mobo | 05:02 |
| setuid | Wouldn't two physically-separate AMD 3000+'s be faster than 1 dual-core Opteron 165? | 05:03 |
| maswan | it'd be about even, I think | 05:03 |
| setuid | decisions, decisions ;) | 05:03 |
| maswan | since the opteron has twice the memory bandwidth of a socket 754, a socket 939 athlon64 on the other hand.. | 05:04 |
| maswan | oh, well. I'm off | 05:04 |
| setuid | hrm... it does? | 05:04 |
| Psi-Jack | Anyone here know how pam_passwdqc works? :) | 05:17 |
