nictukuspike, are you there?02:26
spikenictuku: sorta yeah, almost 2am here02:28
spikenictuku: how's n-u going?02:29
nictukuspike, very well, although I'd like to continue the discussion you started about its scope02:32
=== ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-server
spikenictuku: I'd be pleased to. I've been talking aroun with some friends about it, and they seemed interested, hopefully we'll agreed for a core group and start coding something ppl can play with02:33
nictukuIMO, it's not always true that ServerLand overrides NetworkWideUpdates02:33
nictukuspike, but coding for serverland or network updates?02:34
nictukuhttps://dev.ubuntubrasil.org/trac/nwu/roadmap02:34
spikenictuku: coding that thing I was proposing, which is kinda on the lines of serverland. n-u would be one of the "connected" tools02:36
spikeI'm looking at the roadmap02:37
nictukudid you see http://trac.mcs.anl.gov/projects/bcfg2 ?02:37
ajmitchhello02:37
nictukuajmitch, hi02:37
spikenictuku: yes, but that's something cfengine like02:38
nictukuspike, my point is that nwu is useful even for small and medium-sized networks, and serverland is much more complex02:38
spikenictuku: perfectly agree on that02:38
nictukubut I miss a broader discussion on that. there is even the possibility that canonical is writing a tool that could also replace nwu02:40
spikenictuku: bcfg2 doesnt cover what I want to do. mine is more like cant_rememmber_the_name, it's not sugarcrm... damn02:42
spikeanyway, that one is more inventory,CRM/ticket related. mine could/will maybe include that part too but starting small it'll be oriented at monitoring in the beginning02:43
spikenictuku: ah, didnt know that. thought nwu *was* what canonical was investing02:43
spikethe one that was gonna be the official product, that is02:43
nictukuspike, well, that's what I wanted to be confirmed, maybe in the UFK02:44
ajmitchnictuku: you're going to be in paris?02:45
nictukuajmitch, unfortunately, not02:45
ajmitchah02:45
spikewhat does it take to partecipate?02:45
ajmitchthen I guess you'll just have to spec it out well beforehand :)02:45
nictukuajmitch, it's already spec'ed, but I don't know if it's approved02:46
nictukumichael vogt wrote that before dapper02:46
nictukuhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkWideUpdates02:47
ajmitchright02:47
ajmitchand have you updated the spec to say that you have an implementation now?02:47
nictukuyes02:48
nictuku"UPDATE: YvesJunqueira (nictuku) is working on that. Milestone1 is not far. See [WWW]  https://dev.ubuntubrasil.org/trac/nwu"02:48
neuralisnictuku: i will be in paris02:48
ajmitchhi neuralis02:49
neuralisnictuku: also, canonical has apparently been funding the development of a web-based tool for managing entire ubuntu networks, and it's quite possible they've implemented something like nwu as part of it. i don't have concrete information yet.02:49
neuralishey ajmitch.02:49
ajmitchneuralis: that secretive landscape-client?02:50
ajmitchwhich mysteriously slipped into the desktop seeds with no info a few days ago?02:50
neuralisajmitch: yes.02:51
ajmitchif so, I think it's a very bad way to do development, when the rest of us are kept in the dark like that :)02:51
nictukuneuralis, my implementation is almost 100% adherent to the spec already, so the secrecy of this project is counter-productive02:51
neuralishttp://ln-s.net/ALs02:52
neuralissearch for "there is" in the page, read that paragraph02:52
nictuku:-(02:53
nictukustrangely enough, mark himself knew I was writing nwu, and was very supportive02:53
ajmitchgreat02:53
=== ajmitch wonders how much of the SoC project will still be relevant after this
nictukuSoC?02:54
neuralisajmitch: i can't say i understand what went on there.02:54
neuralisnictuku: summer of code.02:54
nictukusummer of code..02:54
ajmitchnictuku: I'm doing the network authentication project02:55
nictukuI don't want to see a scandal, but do you guys think that should be discussed in the lists, using this publicly available information I have?02:55
=== ajmitch will just work on it & see what happens
nictukuajmitch, that is my plan too, even after hearing a rumor that project existed =] 02:57
neuralisnictuku: i certainly think you're free to write to ubuntu-devel and ask what's going on.02:57
neuraliswhat confuses me is that both mark and jane extol the all-development-out-in-the-open model, so either we're operating from incomplete information, or something strange is going on.02:57
ajmitchneuralis: that's what I question02:57
nictuku+1 there02:58
ajmitchI'd say that either the network auth project I'm doing won't overlap, or even the distro team people have been kept in the dark :)02:58
nictukuI think that project is closed-source03:01
ajmitchclosed for now, but going to be open, you think?03:01
nictukua canonical-hosted service03:01
ajmitchah03:01
nictukuno, I don't think03:01
ajmitchthat would be interesting03:01
nictukulike a microsoft SUS with a free SUS client03:01
neuralisit won't be canonical-hosted; it really can't be.03:02
neuralisif it's closed source, i imagine it'll be a proprietary product for which businesses may purchase a license (and possibly obtain the source).03:02
neuralisbut this is stupid speculation; we should just wait to hear what's going on.03:02
ajmitchI agree03:02
ajmitchit's only a few days until dapper releases03:02
neuralisajmitch: the interview said this won't be ready for dapper; i imagine the real landscape-client will just trickle in through -updates eventually.03:04
ajmitchI'd imagine so03:04
ajmitchneuralis: on a different note, what would you prefer to see in edgy? apparmor or selinux? :)03:05
ajmitchconsidering that debian is getting selinux integration for etch03:05
ajmitchI imagine specs for both will get written up & may get discussed in paris03:09
neuralisi quite like apparmor's apache integration, and i haven't seen selinux doing anything similar, though i haven't been looking at selinux particularly closely in a long time03:12
neuralisit's actually been a long time in general since i've paid attention to linux mac solutions03:12
neuralismostly, they're just about 1-3 orders of magnitude too complex to be of any practical benefit.03:12
infinitynictuku: Even if landscape turns out to be a complete replacement for NWU, there's no reason to drop NWU, since landscape will be a subscription service.03:20
infinitynictuku: Plenty of more frugal admins (or people like me) would prefer to have something like NWU that is both Free and free.03:21
nictukuinfinity, good to hear that03:22

daxxarHm. infinity, I think I got it solved. Again, thanks to you, frinkillo and gpd. :-)07:37
daxxarI ran it for ~6 hours of MemTest86 after I removed the memorystick I suspected of being bad, no errors.07:37
daxxar.. Or not.08:15
daxxarBloody hell. :|08:52
daxxarGuess it's the CPU or mobo then. *sigh* Guess I'll have to test it when I get back home.08:52
