[12:20] <Jonex> Why can't i connect to the server from another computer, fresh install. :)
[12:22] <Jonex> Do I need to open it up on another interface?
[12:24] <Jonex> nm
[03:34] <Rescue9> anyone home?
[03:36] <Rescue9> figures... :-P As usual, a freenode channel that's full, but no one is talking.
[05:12] <UnNaturalHigh> I was wondering if anyone here knows if there is a .tar.gz of ubuntu-server, instead of the livecd?
[05:39] <foo> Anyone used heartbeat? hm
[05:44] <Pumpernickel> UnNaturalHigh: Why do you want a .tar.gz?
[05:45] <UnNaturalHigh> Pumpernickel, I find the live cd annoying and cumbersome
[05:46] <Pumpernickel> How would a .tar.gz help with that?
[05:47] <UnNaturalHigh> Pumpernickel, listen, I don't want to describe my reasons to you and I don't want to argue this with you either
[05:47] <UnNaturalHigh> I am assuming you have no idea
[05:50] <Pumpernickel> I'm just getting type mismatch here, is all.  Archival format versus installation medium.
[01:32] <djay-il> hello
[01:33] <djay-il> I'd like to intall an ubuntu server on x3850 but it crashes on start. Anyone can help?
[01:52] <\sh> djay-il, what crashes? 
[01:58] <djay-il> \sh: kernel crashes with APIC messages and then tries SMP and crashes as well. I've tried to use noapic and nolapic, but to no avail. Maybe I'm using it wrong?
[01:59] <\sh> djay-il, the install kernel or the production system kernel? 
[01:59] <djay-il> install
[02:01] <\sh> djay-il, x3850 == sun machine?
[02:01] <djay-il> \sh: install kernel. I've tried to start with "server" but I get "no such kenel image" message
[02:03] <\sh> ah ibm server ;)
[02:05] <djay-il> IBM :-)
[02:05] <djay-il> yea, quad-cpu
[02:05] <\sh> djay-il, did you install 64bit or 32bit? if 64bit, try to install the 32bit version please, just to be sure, that's something with the 64bit kernel
[02:06] <djay-il> \sh: 32bit; and I haven't installed it yet. Thats what I'm trying to do
[02:19] <djay-il> \sh: so, anything?
[02:33] <\sh> djay-il, try the 64bit flavour :) 
[02:34] <djay-il> can't
[02:35] <djay-il> I need specific environment
[02:35] <djay-il> can I boot the uniproc kernel, not smp?
[02:52] <djay-il> and, btw, why doesn't "noapic" work?
[04:24] <mralphabet> djay-il: he suggested that you try 64 bit as a comparison, not as your answer.
[05:15] <Patizivs> Hi, does anyone has working squidguard on feisty?
[06:09] <waa> hi, i need use atheros restrict module but it is only available in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-generic and i'm using linux-image-2.6.20-15-server. What should I do? use 2.6.20-15-generic instead 2.6.20-15-server?
[06:11] <Burgundavia> waa: you need atheros on a server?
[06:13] <waa> Burgundavia, yes
[06:14] <Burgundavia> aside from the slightly crackish idea of using wireless on a server, generic will work just fine
[06:20] <waa> Burgundavia, it's going to be an access point
[06:21] <Burgundavia> ahh
[06:58] <ekidd> I tried applying the smbclient update on my workstation, and it said, "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated!"
[06:58] <ekidd> I don't want to try to upgrade our servers until I figure out what's going on.
[06:59] <ekidd> Were the packages signed incorrectly?
[07:06] <slackwarelife> ekidd: try to use the shell with sudo apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
[07:06] <ekidd> slackwarelife: Using sudo aptitude upgrade I get equivalent errors.
[07:06] <ekidd> These packages aren't signed.
[07:07] <ekidd> I could install them anyway, but not until I figure out what's going on.
[07:07] <ivoks> do you have ubuntu-keyring installed?
[07:07] <ekidd> WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! smbclient samba-common libsmbclient
[07:08] <ekidd> ivoks: Yup. And I can install other, non-security packages without problems.
[07:08] <ivoks> hm
[07:08] <ekidd> Have any of you applied these fixes?
[07:08] <ivoks> which version is that?
[07:08] <slackwarelife> ekidd: yes
[07:09] <ekidd> ubuntu-keyring/feisty uptodate 2005.01.12.1
[07:09] <ivoks> feisty...
[07:09] <slackwarelife> ekidd: but i did sudo apt-get update and this fixes the problem, after I was able to upgrade
[07:09] <ivoks> no problems here
[07:10] <ekidd> Hmm.
[07:10] <ekidd> Yup, apt-get update did it.
[07:10] <ivoks> well, you have to do update first
[07:10] <ivoks> always
[07:10] <ekidd> Well, I'd already run an update earlier, or I wouldn't have seen anything to upgrade.
[07:11] <ekidd> Maybe I caught a stale or incomplete version of something?
[07:12] <ekidd> Anyway, it works. Thanks for the advice!
[07:14] <slackwarelife> ekidd: I think is a problem about the server update (there is not the first time I had this message)
[07:15] <ekidd> (I'm a little bleary-eyed this morning. One of our Debian servers at itself last night while upgrading to 4.0, and we wound up doing a full rebuild with Ubuntu 7.04 server edition. It's good to be on Ubuntu, but I was here to 11pm and a coworker to 6am.)
[07:15] <ekidd> s/at/ate/
[07:17] <ekidd> slackwarelife: Thanks, I'll keep that in mind! I'm a recent convert to Ubuntu on the server, and still need to learn all the quirks.
[07:19] <slackwarelife> ekidd: which kind pf server are you doing with Ubuntu if I can ask ???
[07:19] <ivoks> pf?
[07:19] <slackwarelife> of
[07:20] <ekidd> slackwarelife: It's a Samba server with a couple terabytes of external RAID arrays, and it serves as a domain controller.
[07:20] <slackwarelife> ekidd: PDC + Ldap :)
[07:21] <ekidd> Yeah, not the sort of thing you want to die at 7pm. It was not fun--first the upgrade ate itself, then we had really bad IDE hardware problems while rebuilding it.
[07:22] <ekidd> Sometimes Murphy just wants to make it clear who's really in charge, you know?
[07:24] <ekidd> But Ubuntu is extremely shiny, so that's one piece of good news. My congrats to everyone involved in the project.
[07:24] <slackwarelife> ekidd: Yes, now I don't sleep because I'm not able to connect my Ubuntu clients with Ldap + Samba PDC (my enterprise wants some security things)

[07:58] <gregbuntu> greetings all. anyone load ubuntu on IBM x86 server? (netfinity 5500 in my case)
[09:20] <gregbuntu> trying to load ubuntu server on netfinity 5500. installer works until type of keyboard is specified, then seems hung on blank blue installer screen. tried several ubuntu versions (7.04, 6.10, 6.06.1) and same result for each. any ideas?
[09:22] <gregbuntu> from installer console i get kernel messages "hda: DMA interrupt recovery" and "hda: lost interrupt", i have a raid 5 setup.
[09:23] <gregbuntu> also get kernel message: "ide-cd: cmd 0x28 timed out"
[09:24] <gregbuntu> these tree kernel message keep repeating every few seconds
[09:24] <gregbuntu> ideas?
[09:29] <slackwarelife> try to pass ide=nodma on the start
[09:34] <gregbuntu> slackwarelife: bingo. installer proceeds now. thanks!
[09:35] <slackwarelife> gregbuntu: nothing
[10:06] <ph1zzle> hey all
[10:08] <ph1zzle> I installed my system and gave it a the wrong domain name, it's up and running but the ssl certs in /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem and /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key have the wrong domain name listed and tell people that when they try to use them (dovecot imap-s), is there a way to recreate them?
[10:16] <slackwarelife> sudo openssl req -nodes -config openssl.cnf -new -x509 -keyout CA/private/cakey.pem -out CA/cacert.pem -days 3650
[10:17] <slackwarelife> sudo openssl req -config openssl.cnf -nodes -new -keyout /etc/ldap/slapd-key.pem -out slapd.csr
[10:17] <slackwarelife> sudo openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -out /etc/ldap/slapd-cert.pem -in slapd.csr
[10:17] <slackwarelife> these are the 3 commands I use
[10:18] <slackwarelife> but you have done to configure yor openssl.conf
[10:18] <slackwarelife> Change the name of cert with your ;)
[10:20] <ph1zzle> thank you
[10:21] <slackwarelife> My dir /etc/ldap/sapd are example, change it too, ok ;)
[10:22] <ph1zzle> where is CA located?
[10:22] <ph1zzle> or is that...
[10:22] <ph1zzle> nm
[10:23] <defaultro> hi folks, I need to build a server. FreeBSD/OpenBSD failed to detect my 8gig. I would like to try ubuntu but don't know where to download so I can try first if it will detect it. Maybe a livecd?
[10:24] <ph1zzle> slackwarelife, I have a file called /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key which seems to be a RSA private key, where does that come out in the description you gave, or does it
[10:27] <ph1zzle> ok, the first command I did gave me two rsa keys
[10:27] <ph1zzle> different sizes
[10:27] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: you have done all 3 command using ssl-cert-snakeoil like name, right
[10:28] <ph1zzle> so far I have only done the first one, and I took out the dirs so I could see what I get and figure out where it goes
[10:28] <gregbuntu> i've got an ubuntu install on my netfinity 5500 now. it has raid 5 setup. i get grub error 18 on boot now. i read that it is best to make the OS partition smaller to solve this. does this make sense?
[10:28] <ph1zzle> openssl req -nodes -config openssl.cnf -new -x509 -keyout cakey.pem -out cacert.pem -days 3650
[10:29] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, does linux support your raid card, is the boot partition on raid, are the modules for your raid card being loaded, is the initramfs on raid etc
[10:30] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: ok this command create cacert.pem file
[10:30] <ph1zzle> ok, I just ran the second one as well, lol, I was about to see what that creates 
[10:32] <gregbuntu> ubuntu does support this raid interface (formatted and copied just fine), my raid array shows up as one logical drive (sda or 0,0,0) and that is where i told installer to create partitions. is there a way to get more verbose output from grub?
[10:34] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: the second create the *key.pem
[10:34] <ph1zzle> good question, I would hit the man page / docs on that one but what you just told me sounds reasonable enough to assume it's grub
[10:36] <ph1zzle> slackwarelife, I re did it from scratch with the correct names and I got this error on the final one
[10:36] <ph1zzle> root@tolemedia:/etc/ssl# openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -out /etc/ldap/slapd-cert.pem -in slapd.csr
[10:36] <ph1zzle> Using configuration from openssl.cnf
[10:36] <ph1zzle> I am unable to access the ./CA/newcerts directory
[10:36] <ph1zzle> ./CA/newcerts: No such file or directory
[10:37] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: Ok this problem is because you must change some to your openssl.conf file
[10:42] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: but I have some problem to post the line you must change here :(
[10:45] <ph1zzle> um
[10:45] <ph1zzle> ok
[10:46] <ph1zzle> lol
[10:46] <ph1zzle> oh, I see what your saying
[10:46] <ph1zzle> fair enough, I will post it on the web next time, in fact that was my mistake in focusing on the other problem
[10:47] <shawarma> defaultro: Did you find the livecd iso yet?
[10:48] <ph1zzle> slackwarelife, I am now being told it is having a problem with index.txt and according to my openssl.cnf it's a database index file it is looking for
[10:48] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: If you want I'm in the launchpad tomorrow
[10:49] <ph1zzle> I honestly don't know what the launchpad is
[10:50] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: ok, try this
[10:50] <ph1zzle> gladly, and I appreciate your help
[10:50] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: cd /etc/ssl
[10:50] <ph1zzle> right
[10:50] <ph1zzle> I have been here the whole time
[10:51] <ph1zzle> in /etc/ssl
[10:51] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: sudo mkdir -p CA/certs CA/crl CA/newcerts  CA/private
[10:51] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: chmod 700 CA/private
[10:51] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: if you don't want repeat sudo all time do sudo -s
[10:52] <ph1zzle> right, I am already as root, and I just did all you mentioned
[10:52] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: all command we do with root privileges ok ;)
[10:52] <ph1zzle> thats new to me though, lol, I always do sude su -
[10:52] <ph1zzle> right, I am not so much a newbie, just never touched ssl before now too much
[10:55] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: sorry :-[
[10:55] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: let's go.    touch CA/index.txt
[10:56] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: echo 01 > CA/serial
[10:56] <ph1zzle> ok
[10:56] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: now we can edit the openssl.cnf file
[10:58] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: 1 --> [ CA_default ] 
[10:58] <ph1zzle> right, I am looking at it, I tried that command first before you mentioned it and it mentioned commonName needed to be supplied I am looking at that atm
[10:58] <slackwarelife> pz1zzle: line to change --> dir		= ./CA   		# Where everything is kept
[10:58] <ph1zzle> ok, I am using that dir atm
[10:58] <slackwarelife> and these
[10:58] <slackwarelife> certs		= $dir/certs		# Where the issued certs are kept
[10:59] <slackwarelife> crl_dir		= $dir/crl		# Where the issued crl are kept
[10:59] <slackwarelife> database	= $dir/index.txt	# database index file.
[10:59] <slackwarelife> after these
[10:59] <slackwarelife> default_days	= 3650			# how long to certify for
[10:59] <slackwarelife> default_crl_days= 30			# how long before next CRL
[10:59] <slackwarelife> default_md	= sha1			# which md to use.
[10:59] <slackwarelife> preserve	= no			# keep passed DN ordering
[11:00] <ph1zzle> ok
[11:00] <slackwarelife> after these:
[11:00] <slackwarelife> [ req ] 
[11:00] <slackwarelife> default_bits		= 1024
[11:00] <slackwarelife> default_keyfile 	= privkey.pem
[11:00] <slackwarelife> distinguished_name	= req_distinguished_name
[11:00] <slackwarelife> attributes		= req_attributes
[11:01] <gregbuntu> in my raid config i have adapter cache 'on'. bad idea?
[11:01] <gregbuntu> also int13 extention is 'no'
[11:01] <ph1zzle> ok, so far everything you are mentioning is proper in the file, just so you know I have not changed it since I installed 7.04 but I will keep following
[11:01] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, you have me on that one
[11:01] <gregbuntu> i'll try reinstall of grub...
[11:02] <ph1zzle> int13 I beleive was a... no I am in thinking of int21, 
[11:02] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: and after you can compile this part [ req_distinguished_name ]  with your data
[11:02] <ph1zzle> I would turn int13 on since it's an interupt used in mbr and boot code
[11:03] <gregbuntu> reinstall grub has no effect. i will try int13 on now...
[11:03] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, I would also disable adapter cache... although it may be irrelevent but I am not sure 
[11:03] <gregbuntu> ok
[11:05] <ph1zzle> slackwarelife, openssl.cnf has localityName but no localityName.default, can I add this column?
[11:05] <ph1zzle> er, row?
[11:06] <gregbuntu> hmmm... still get grub error 18 with int13 on and adapter cache off
[11:06] <ph1zzle> now that it's off do a re install of grub
[11:06] <gregbuntu> maybe i'll try reinstall using small partition size
[11:06] <gregbuntu> oh, good idea
[11:06] <ph1zzle> what is the raid card?
[11:07] <slackwarelife> mine:
[11:07] <gregbuntu> it is 'ips' module
[11:07] <slackwarelife> localityName			= Locality Name (eg, city)
[11:07] <slackwarelife> localityName_default		= Casalpusterlengo
[11:07] <gregbuntu> IBM ServeRaid interface
[11:08] <ph1zzle> I did apply a commonName_default though and I am still getting an error that it was not specified, I was never asked for it... shoot
[11:08] <ph1zzle> I am gonna start over
[11:10] <ph1zzle> ok, it worked, lol
[11:11] <ph1zzle> slackwarelife, I really do appreciate your help
[11:11] <ph1zzle> should I buy you a hooker for the evening or something to say thanks? ;)
[11:13] <slackwarelife> ph1zzle: nothing
[11:13] <ph1zzle> lol, well thanks anyways, I do appreciate it a lot
[11:15] <gregbuntu> grub install raid error 18
[11:15] <gregbuntu> typed google search criteria in wrong window..DOH
[11:17] <gregbuntu> ok i re-install grub to /dev/sda (the logical drive that represents my raid)...
[11:19] <gregbuntu> still get error 18
[11:23] <gregbuntu> during install, i have option for grub or LVM (or something like that). should I choose LVM for a raid situation?
[11:23] <slackwarelife> gregbuntu:  Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds max supported by BIOS
[11:24] <slackwarelife> gregubuntu: it seems your Bios does not support your cylinder partition start
[11:24] <gregbuntu> slackwarelife: this is scsi raid so that should not matter, right?
[11:25] <gregbuntu> scsi bios can see everything
[11:26] <gregbuntu> slackwarelife: there is a minor bios update however changelog reveals one small change related to win2k, so essentially bios is current
[11:30] <gregbuntu> i notice there is --force-lba parameter for grub-install, but this only applies to IDE right?
[11:31] <slackwarelife> gregbuntu: ok, I confess I know only the grub error. I post it because I think you can use it to solve your problem. Thanks
[11:32] <gregbuntu> slackwarelife: i appreciate your help
[11:35] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, the 18 error is right afaik, there is no such thing as scsi only bios as far as I know, the fact is your getting the error because what grub is talking to as bios is having problems, now you may have an aditional bios on your card but it does not have access to the reserved functions that a computer bios has, now grub is making a int call which is getting picked up probably by your initial bios which then queries the raid card, it d
[11:35] <ph1zzle> oes not know it's raid as far as I know and probably assumes it to be a pci style disk controller but the fact is the information it gets back is incompatible with your own bios
[11:35] <ph1zzle> and no, you do not want lvm
[11:42] <gregbuntu> ph1zzle: thanks. i wonder if grub in confused by ide bios (the cdrom is only ide device). i can try to disable ide in bios i guess...
[11:43] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, there is no such thing as ide/scsi bios
[11:44] <ph1zzle> bios is the software that starts your computer before linux is loaded
[11:44] <ph1zzle> grub isn't confused in this case, that bios which is programed into a chip that sits on your motherboard has an address space that is reserved for this bios
[11:45] <ph1zzle> when any application does a bios interupt call, it gets a response from the bios on your motherboard 
[11:47] <gregbuntu> ph1zzle: i gather that my system bios just passes off disk i/o functions to the scsi firmware (bios) that controls the scsi bus. is that correct?
[11:49] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, from what I understand, some functions it does and some it doesn't
[11:50] <ph1zzle> now it's been a few years since I have learned assembly and wrote programs that make raw interupt calls so I am not a pro on this but I think for disk requirements it will still depend on your mother boards bios which it always should and the manufacturers should know this as well as using standards to configure it
[11:55] <gregbuntu> ph1zzle, that makes sense. the strange thing is that this system was fully operational with win2k prior. so any bios limitation should have prevented that also. another thing that puzzles me is that with scsi drives, there is no place in the system bios for drive geometry, so i don't see how the system bios can be a problem here.
[11:56] <ph1zzle> I am not saying the bios itself is the problem, It may just be part of whats detecting it or something the OS is doing to call a bios interrupt that is detecting it, honestly I don't know a 100% what the problem is yet but let me re read something, also what kind of card do you have
[11:58] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, read this http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml#doc_chap6_sect1
[11:58] <ph1zzle> what is the size of your hard disk anyways?
[12:00] <gregbuntu> ah, i see. there are 6 scsi 18GB each, adapter is IBM ServeRAID 2.80.03
[12:01] <ph1zzle> where is your boot partition on the disk?
[12:01] <ph1zzle> or on the raid?
[12:02] <ph1zzle> gregbuntu, type df -h /boot and paste the results into rafb.net/paste
[12:02] <ph1zzle> df -h /boot
[12:03] <gregbuntu> boot partition is on the raid: all disks are part of a raid 5 array that looks like one logical drive /dev/sda
[12:03] <ph1zzle> btw, thats only a 108 GB @ 6 x 18, lol
[12:03] <ph1zzle> one logical drive?
[12:04] <ph1zzle> no partitions for perticular sections?
[12:05] <gregbuntu> to clarify, it appears as one big disk (/dev/sda) however there are 3 partitions (sda1, sda2, sda5) and sda1 is first and boot partition
[12:05] <ph1zzle> ok, fair enough then
[12:05] <ph1zzle> thats what I was wondering
[12:06] <gregbuntu>  ph1zzle, thanks so much for your help so far. i have an appointment now... i'll try this again tomorrow.
[12:06] <ph1zzle> in that case I would suggest throwing an old ide in there as your first disk, copying /boot to it and making it the boot drive to bios, honestly I don't even know where on the raid the /boot is physically but neither does bios
[12:06] <ph1zzle> and yeah, no prob, I was about to tell you I am going home ;)
[12:06] <ph1zzle> cheers
[12:06] <gregbuntu> good idea
