thefish_re03:02
thefishanyone know what management solutions exist for a full ubuntu shop? Something like Zenworks?03:03
thefishsorry to repeat, lost connection :)03:03
=== spike is working on one
spikethefish: in short, no, there are bits and pieces that you can use, but nothing accessible through a single interface and correlated03:34
thefishspike: thanks, im interested in your project... what does it do? what are you making it with? etc?03:35
spikethere are various things like ebox,cfengine/puppet,FAI)pfai)/systemimager one can use03:35
spiketo install/deploy/monitor boxes (for the monitor part see ganglia,nagios,catci,munin)03:35
spikethefish: it does (will) for zenworks/RHN/HP Openview do03:36
thefishnice03:36
thefishwhat are you building it with?03:36
spikethefish: atm I'm focusing on box deployment (config and patches included) + monitoring (resources and so on)03:36
thefishfarinuff03:37
thefishwhat are you doing the monitoring with?03:37
spikeI'm not really iterested in service config panels as I can use an editor and then the real important part is distribution and versioning03:37
spikeie, cvs centralized repo + distribution policies done via cfengine/puppet03:38
spikethefish: well, I'm trying to not reinvent the wheel, even if ppl keep saying it'll be a mess... but hey, it's my time :)03:39

thefishive been using zabbix for monitoring, its sweet03:39
thefishnot as many plugins as nagios, but still very cool03:39
spikeyep, I use that too03:40
thefish:)03:40
spikemon is nice too03:40
spikemonit*03:40
spikeeasier than nagios for small installation, and work on the host so can do things like restarting ssh daemons and the like03:40
spikestuff that if it depends on connectivity (see nagios) it cant be done03:40
thefish_k03:41
thefish_what about updates etc?03:42
spikelocal repo where packages get updated from a golden server + script that dump answers and set them on clients before they install the new pkg, so it can be done unattendedly03:43
thefishkay03:44
spikeI also wanted a Xen instance related to the panel so I could automagically do patch/upgrade testing there03:44
thefishye nice plan03:44
spikeanyway, gotta work, later03:45

mdzscreeb: I'm not sure what you mean by a configuration UI.  it's an interface for installing sets of packages, and the sets are determined by the package database06:10

redondosHello10:01
redondosI was wondering how I can change the default locale system-wide.10:02
spikeI was wondering, how is that a server question?10:02
spikeredondos: dpkg-reconfigure locales10:03
redondosThat never prompts me for the default locale.10:03
spikeredondos: and I'll answer my own question too, it's not10:03
redondoshttp://pastebin.ca/8428710:03
spikeredondos: you should use #ubuntu for such questions10:03
spikenot -server10:03
redondosOh, I just didn't want a "click here, point there" type of answer.10:03
redondosOk, here comes a server question: can you recommend me web a administration package such as cpanel?10:26
spikeredondos: ISPconfig, ebox, GPLhost10:29
redondosThanks.10:29
redondosWhich one do you prefer?10:29
redondosI'll probably test them all, but just wanting opinions.10:29
spikebah, hard to tell, there are reasons to like some and reasons to like others, it depends what you need... prob I'd pick up ISPconfig10:30
spikeredondos: something else you could have googled out: http://wiki.debian.org/HostingControlPanels10:31
spikethat's a comprehensive list, most complete available afaik10:31
redondosk, thanks.10:32
