fholmesI am having problems with Bind on my Breezy Badger server.04:08
fholmesI have bind chrooted in /var/lib/named and everything was working until yesterday.  Something weird happened in that time frame.04:08
fholmesI have not made any configuration changes at all.  In my db.domainname file only the last name is resolving, none of the other names in my list will resolve.04:09

infinityJulienH: grub can't read from software raid5.08:00

Mysta_anyone around?08:36
infinityMysta_: Vaguely.08:37
Mysta_i have a quick quesion08:37
Mysta_when i run the top command from the terminal how do I determine how much 'load' my 4 processors are taking on???08:37

=== enquest [n=onno@d54C2994F.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-server
enquestdoes the new ubuntu server come with special managment software like postfix admin. An easy way to set up your mailserver, manage apache?09:41
spikeenquest: no09:41
enquestin what is it then diffrent then redhat, fedora, debian ... ?09:41
spikeof those you mentioned, only RHEL is close to ubuntu server in terms of support, certifications and the like09:42
infinityenquest: 5 years support, server-tuned kernel, and a different package selection on the CD.09:42
kermitX_webmin isn't even in dapper --09:42
infinityenquest: It's not any "simpler" than Debian, though Debian policy and package integration makes us both pretty simple, IMO.09:43
enquestThats all??? Hmmm kinda expected a more easy aproce to setting up a mail server and so on...09:43
infinitykermitX_: That's because webmin is a festering pile of unmaintainable and unsupportable crap.09:43
enquestI'm know running Debian... But always find mail server difficult09:43
infinitykermitX_: And those are the NICE things I have to say about it.09:43
enquestDon't use webmin09:43
enquestwebmin is overkill09:43
enquestbut it would be nice to set up easily a mail server with mysql support without having to change a dozen files09:44
kermitX_keep an eye on http://www.ispconfig.org/ for docs on getting ispconfig to work with dapper09:44
kermitX_breezy's is http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_5.1009:45
enquestis this ispconfig inlucde in dapper?09:45
spikeenquest: you can easily install stuff like GPLhost09:46
spikeyeah, or ispconfig09:46
kermitX_no. you get it from ^^^  (it's open source, bsd license)09:46
enquestWhat is this on the ubuntu.com website apt-get lamp for the serveR???09:51
enquestor is it the same apt-get apache2 php5 mysql09:52
infinityapache2 apache2-mpm-prefork libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server php5-mysql php5-mysqli09:55
infinityBut, "yes", otherwise.09:55
infinityIt's just guaranteed to always work right and not generate bug reports. :)09:55
infinityWhich is a win for me, since I maintain all those packages.09:55
infinityAnd I dislike bug reports.09:55

=== asw [n=asw@karuna.med.harvard.edu] has joined #ubuntu-server
kermitX_will there be a meta package (ubuntu-server) to expedite the install of the ubuntu-server packages when using a 'non-server' iso?09:57
infinityThere isn't in dapper.09:58
infinityI'm considering some "make stuff easier" metapackages for edgy.09:58
kermitX_and isn't perl part of the server iso?09:58
infinityFor most "real" admins, this is all fluff anyway.  They just want the bare-bones installation we ship, and then they want to hand-pick which packages they install.09:58
infinityBut for home users and small-time admins, this stuff's fun.09:59
infinitykermitX_: Of course perl's on the ISO (and installed by default)09:59
infinityPerl's installed by default on all Ubuntu and Debian systems..09:59
infinityHalf the dpkg tools kinda depend on it.09:59
spikeis ther a system besides LFS :) which doesnt install perl as default?09:59
spikethrow an "actually" in there somewhere10:00
infinityWell, the default perl you get on a minimal Debian or Ubuntu system is REALLY lightweight.10:00
kermitX_but isn't mod-perl2 separate? or is it unneeded?10:00
infinityBut it's still there.10:00
infinitykermitX_: Oh, no, we don't install mod_perl2 by default.  It's on the ISO, though.10:00
infinitykermitX_: As is mod_python.10:01
=== kermitX_ mmmm python ;)
kermitX_can someone explain the dependancy on php5-cli & php5-common that php4-pear has?10:03
infinitykermitX_: php4-pear is an empty package that depends on php-pear.10:08
infinityphp-pear is built from php5 source, so depends on php5-common for the changelog and docs (php5-common hasn't got much else in it)10:08
infinityAs for the php5-cli thin, php-pear needs a command line interpreter to run, it depends on php5-cli | php4-cli, so if you have the latter installed, you don't need the former.10:09
=== Mysta_ [n=Mysta@63.90.190.232] has left #ubuntu-server []
infinityAnd if I get one more bug report stating "Oh noes, php4-pear pulled in php5-common, now I have php5 installed!", I *will* hit someone.  I mean it.10:09
kermitX_i wasn't complaining.. was mainly wondering what was so important about php5-common. if it's just docs, it's docs. no biggie.10:15
infinityIt's just so I only have to ship one changelog for all packages built from the php5 source instead of shipping 15 identical changelogs.10:17
infinityso /usr/share/doc/php-pear is a symlink to /usr/share/doc/php5-common10:17
