| tmh___ | LVM | 12:39 |
| chaoticg33k | huh? | 12:39 |
| tmh___ | you can do flexible, easy partitioning with LVM and change it easily later | 12:39 |
| chaoticg33k | took a long time | 12:40 |
| chaoticg33k | ... | 12:40 |
| tmh___ | comments like that aren't too polite. | 12:40 |
| tmh___ | and someone already replied to you 5 hours ago | 12:41 |
| chaoticg33k | I'm sorry | 12:41 |
| tmh___ | sparsely, I guess, but anyway. | 12:41 |
| chaoticg33k | I was trying to joke, but it does not translate well into bits and bytes | 12:41 |
| tmh___ | oh, ok :) http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ | 12:41 |
| chaoticg33k | I'm very sarcastic, but it does not end up well online. | 12:42 |
| chaoticg33k | thank you for the link | 12:42 |
| chaoticg33k | have you looked at any version of 6.10 | 12:43 |
| tmh___ | yes, Im using the release | 12:44 |
| chaoticg33k | I see the answer you were talking about now. Looks like a shorthand for something like lol | 12:45 |
| chaoticg33k | guess the ;) threw me off | 12:45 |
| chaoticg33k | another question if you don't mind, Is it easy to configure the network for a ubuntu server after the install, using a line from a windows box? | 12:49 |
| chaoticg33k | My setup is kinda weird I guess, I have two computers and I have my main windows box that has net, I'm getting another network card so I can pop it into one of the boxes and have a total of three so I can share the connection I have between the two | 12:50 |
| chaoticg33k | I live in a college dorm room with one network jack and we can not use routers or hubs, so I wanna have internet access for both, but I'm not very sure how easy that would be | 12:51 |
| chaoticg33k | any takers on my question? | 12:55 |

| PenguinistaKC | If you can't use routers or hubs, then your best bet is to get wireless cards for two of your machines and set the third one up as a gateway. | 01:05 |
| PenguinistaKC | Oops, you have two machines. Even easier. | 01:06 |
| PenguinistaKC | Set up one machine with two network cards. Eth0 connects to jack in wall, eth1 connects to computer 2 through a cross-over cable. Set up computer 1 as your gateway | 01:07 |
| PenguinistaKC | With windows, you use internet connection sharing. With linux, it's a little more work. | 01:08 |

| chaoticg33k | I want the work, I want to learn more, so doing alot of work is no problem for me. | 02:26 |
| chaoticg33k | umm... k well I installed the lamp server software package in 6.10, I skipped the DNS stuff. I bet I can get that all installed later if I need it. I'm not postive on what I want to do if I want the linux box to share the connection or the windows box. If I do the windows box then I will be able to get help as I go along if I need it, however if I do the linux box I have to know what I am doing before hand seems how I will not have n | 02:54 |
| chaoticg33k | Ok, well I got an error when I tried to install the lamp server package, so it told me to reselect it and try agian, so I selected the DNS too. | 02:56 |
| chaoticg33k | Ok, it gave me "Instlation step failed" again... and I had both of the packages selected this time | 02:56 |
| chaoticg33k | ok, so far so good with no packages selected | 02:59 |
| chaoticg33k | k well it is installed now but no predefined packages... I guess I'm gonna have to do that all manualy | 03:04 |

| gioele | hello | 10:51 |
| gioele | Is there going to be something like "edgy server" distribution? | 10:51 |
| infinity | gioele: The server ISOs are right next to the regular ISOs on the dowload site. | 10:55 |
| infinity | http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/ | 10:55 |
| infinity | ubuntu-6.10-server-* | 10:55 |
| gioele | ah, ok | 10:55 |
| gioele | because the site is not very clear. It is half updated and it seems that the server edition is going to stick with 6.06 LTS | 10:56 |
| infinity | Well, it's encouraged that server users stick with 6.06 anyway. | 10:57 |
| infinity | Most server users would prefer stability and 5 years of support over a few new packages, generally. :) | 10:57 |
| gioele | well, not if you are running an ejabberd server ;) | 11:07 |

| mpathy | Hi there.. I asked yesterday if it would be a bad idea to use edgy for my server.. But today I recognized that I perhaps HAVE TO use edgy because there is Postfix 2.3 in it, and from this version I got support for the Dovecot-SASL: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html#server_dovecot | 03:21 |
| mpathy | Or is it really a idea who is REALLY bad? :) | 03:22 |
| mpathy | Tell me about the quality level of the server-specific issues @ edgy :) | 03:22 |

| mpathy | Hi there! I need to switch to Edgy for recent versions of Postfix and Dovecot.. Are there some serious objections against doing that? | 05:21 |
| mpathy | (on a server) | 05:21 |
| infinity | I'm not doing it on my machines, but the choice is, obviously, yours. | 05:22 |
| mpathy | infinity: Sure. But are there serious points against doing that? | 05:24 |
| infinity | 5 years' support on dapper, versus 18 months on edgy. | 05:25 |
| infinity | Lots of testing and stability fixes in dapper, a more rushed release with edgy. | 05:25 |
| infinity | And the fact that I, personally, put several man-weeks into dapper's server release, and barely touched it for edgy, cause we had other goals. :) | 05:26 |
| infinity | But I don't think it should have any *problems*, per se, I just wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it over dapper either. | 05:27 |
| === Pych0n [n=asanta@200.75.87.133] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| Pych0n | Hi | 05:27 |
| Pych0n | I almosty finished to install the Ubuntu 6.06.1 on a Dell PowerEdge | 05:27 |
| mpathy | infinity: Hmm, okay. Its clear that I use Feisty, the next LTR in april! I think I will go, until then, with Edgy | 05:28 |
| Pych0n | Now im configuring the NICs with support for VLANs (+20 VLANS) | 05:28 |
| Pych0n | but when the machine starts it takes to much time to setuo the network | 05:28 |
| Pych0n | Almost +5 minutes | 05:29 |
| mpathy | 5 years? That means in a few years you have to do support for really much releases..? | 05:29 |
| Pych0n | hi | 05:29 |
| infinity | mpathy: I doubt feisty will be an LTS. | 05:30 |
| infinity | mpathy: The next one after feisty might be. | 05:30 |
| mpathy | infinity: Really? But as I remember Mark said every second release will be one | 05:30 |
| infinity | He said no such thing. | 05:31 |
| mpathy | infinity: Hmm okay.. And there is no possibility that Postfix 2.3 gets somehow in dapper-backports? | 05:31 |
| infinity | A tentative plan was every third or fourth (dapper was our fourth), but we've committed to nothing. | 05:32 |
| infinity | mpathy: You could file a bug requestin a backport, sure. If it compiles cleanly on dapper. | 05:32 |
| mpathy | infinity: Wher would be the right place to do that? | 05:32 |
| infinity | The build-deps make it look like it should build on dapper. | 05:33 |
| infinity | https://launchpad.net/products/dapper-backports/+bugs | 05:34 |
| infinity | Looks like it's already filed. | 05:34 |
| infinity | https://launchpad.net/products/dapper-backports/+bug/55599 | 05:34 |
| infinity | So, follow up to thet bug and give a rationale, if you'd like. | 05:35 |
| infinity | s/thet/that/ | 05:35 |
| Pych0n | infinity: hi | 05:35 |
| Pych0n | infinity: would you like to help me ? | 05:35 |
| infinity | The backports team will vet the report, see if it compiles cleanly, etc, then pass it off to the archive team (me and a few others), and we'll process it. | 05:35 |
| infinity | Pych0n: This isn't really a support channel. | 05:35 |
| infinity | Pych0n: That, and I don't do VLANs in Linux, I tend to use real routing and switching equipment, so I might not be very helpful. | 05:36 |
| Pych0n | infinity: ok, where is the support channel please ? | 05:36 |
| infinity | #ubuntu | 05:36 |
| infinity | There is no server-specific support channel that I know of. | 05:36 |
| infinity | If I had to guess, though, it's possible you're being bitten by something in /etc/network/if-up.d/ being run (and failing or timing out) for every single one of your 20 VLANs coming up. | 05:37 |
| mpathy | infinity: Posted it.. Lets hope ;) | 06:03 |
