| Jester45 | hi, im trying to do http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Compressed-TCP.html i have a co-located machine that i can ssh into. i was wondering if i must use a proxy or if there is a diffrent way of doing this. and if i must use a proxy does anyone have a good guide to set on up | 02:15 |
| lcdd | Jester45: is this for web traffic? | 02:23 |
| Jester45 | possibly if it is fast | 02:23 |
| Jester45 | im looking more for one of the co admins that only has dialup and downloading big logs take a while | 02:24 |
| Jester45 | and i was really curious | 02:28 |
| lcdd | if there are any web proxies available to the ssh machine, it's easy to forward http over ssh for anyone who has an ssh account | 02:28 |
| Jester45 | the log files and the ssh is on the same machine i could run a proxy on it | 02:29 |
| lcdd | so there are only two machines involved? | 02:31 |
| lcdd | in that case there is no need for proxies | 02:32 |
| Jester45 | good | 02:33 |
| lcdd | just use scp or maybe rsync over ssh to copy the files | 02:33 |
| Jester45 | so the ssh connection would make it kinda like a proxy | 02:33 |
| lcdd | it's just a tunnel between two machines | 02:35 |
| Jester45 | so use the same command ? then tell rsync to use that port | 02:36 |
| Jester45 | im not to good at networking | 02:36 |
| lcdd | well, if you already know how to use rsync, just add the option -e ssh | 02:37 |
| Jester45 | ok | 02:38 |
| lcdd | there is actually a good example on the rsync man page | 02:40 |
| Jester45 | thanks | 02:40 |
| lcdd | but that connection is not compressed by default | 02:41 |
| === BFTD [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.108.73.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| lcdd | Jester45: you can set ssh options, to enable compression among other things, in ~/.ssh/config (on the client machine) | 02:44 |
| lcdd | needs just two lines: | 02:44 |
| lcdd | Host myserver | 02:45 |
| lcdd | Compression yes | 02:45 |
| lcdd | that's it | 02:45 |
| Jester45 | compression-level=9? | 02:45 |
| Jester45 | cant you set the level | 02:45 |
| lcdd | i'm not sure. the CompressionLevel option is only for the older protocol version 1 | 02:46 |
| Jester45 | k | 02:47 |

| hatter | mralphabet, haha | 04:32 |
| hatter | do you use it ? | 04:32 |
| mralphabet | I do | 04:32 |
| hatter | i have etch and sarge on most servers now, but etch is not discovering my sata controller due to a bug in the via-sata driver in the 2.6.18 kernel. so looks like i am switchiing it to ubuntu server | 04:33 |
| hatter | so i was wondering how many in real life use ubuntu as a server | 04:34 |
| mralphabet | I went from primarily from slackware to ubuntu | 04:34 |
| hatter | because of hardware driver issues ? | 04:34 |
| hatter | this has been the achilles heal of all these distros | 04:34 |
| mralphabet | more the support cycle and community | 04:34 |
| hatter | computer hardware moving faster than software drivers | 04:34 |

| hatter | how new is the mobo ? | 04:36 |
| mralphabet | it's a promise card | 04:36 |
| hatter | oh they are painful | 04:36 |
| mralphabet | quite | 04:36 |
| hatter | its sata ? | 04:36 |
| mralphabet | it's the first card they used a sata chipset for an ide card | 04:36 |
| hatter | have you tried a knoppix live cd ? | 04:37 |
| mralphabet | yup | 04:37 |
| mralphabet | it's nowhere in the kernel | 04:37 |

| hatter | now its driving me nuts again | 04:40 |
| hatter | with etch | 04:40 |
| hatter | which i didnt think would be a problem anymore | 04:40 |
| hatter | which may lead me away from debian :( | 04:40 |
| hatter | *sigh* | 04:40 |
| mralphabet | I had luck with my last sata raid, though I don't remember the card! | 04:40 |
| hatter | though i use feisty on my desktop | 04:40 |
| mralphabet | the release cycle that ubuntu pushes is nice, their next LTS is going to be a lot nicer then 6.06 LTS, backports will be handled better | 04:41 |

| hatter | mralphabet, the livecd for knoppix is fine, ubuntu is fine, etch kernel 2.6.18 doesnt detect it | 05:04 |

| hatter | lcdd, ah, theres a good idea | 05:25 |
| hatter | i just found the sarge installer works, so my latest thought is to install sarge, u/g to etch, install kernel from backport | 05:26 |
| lcdd | there might be some boot option to work around the problem also | 05:26 |
| hatter | lcdd, i couldnt find any, i guess i may be able to get the working driver on a disk then use a boot option | 05:27 |

| Burgundavia | ubuntuserver: that is an everything server | 05:40 |
| Burgundavia | what are you actually doing with this server? | 05:40 |
| ubuntuserver | apache,mail server,ssh | 05:41 |
| ubuntuserver | and webmin too. | 05:41 |
| Burgundavia | ugh, webmin is evil and unsecure | 05:41 |
| Burgundavia | it is likely that is how they broke your computer | 05:41 |
| ubuntuserver | i read that they can brute force attack the ssh and then cna gain access | 05:41 |
| ubuntuserver | but i don't log with root | 05:42 |
| Burgundavia | they can, but the most common account to do that to is root | 05:42 |
| ubuntuserver | but when i write root | 05:42 |
| ubuntuserver | and the password is say that the password is incorrect | 05:42 |
| ubuntuserver | root pass is dissabled | 05:42 |
| Burgundavia | ok | 05:42 |

| ubuntuserver | ok | 05:43 |
| ubuntuserver | but for web mai l | 05:43 |
| ubuntuserver | what i can use | 05:43 |
| ubuntuserver | zimbra? | 05:43 |
| Burgundavia | sure | 05:44 |
| ubuntuserver | ok but how can i configure it to work with the antivirus | 05:44 |
| Burgundavia | for that I have no idea | 05:50 |
| Burgundavia | zimba likely has docs on how to configure clamav with it | 05:50 |

| ubuntuserver | one question | 05:52 |
| ubuntuserver | what web min do you use? | 05:52 |

| ubuntuserver | ok do you have the ubuntu desktop cd | 06:31 |
| Tones | yea, didn't try that one though | 06:31 |

| ubuntuserver | ok goodluck | 06:32 |
| Tones | same error, comes up saying "cannot determine the geomitry of the disc. do not use PARTED unless you kinow what your doing" or something like that | 06:45 |

| ubuntuserver | is it on laptop? | 06:47 |

| ubuntuserver | maybe for raid ? | 06:49 |
| ubuntuserver | for ide or sata no? | 06:49 |
| Tones | yea i've never tried any types of linux with a raid but from memory its usually something like /dev/hda/hd0 or something like that | 06:49 |

| laichzeit | i.e., you need dmraid so it creates /dev/mapper/raid_volume_asdl23j4lksjaa | 02:11 |
| laichzeit | it's a fakeraid and shows up as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb | 02:12 |
| lcdd | i don't there are any reasons to prefer fakeraid over software raid in a server | 02:17 |
| lcdd | don't know if -- | 02:17 |
| lcdd | there might be issues with data recovery from fakeraid devices if you lose the hardware | 02:19 |

| krampo | Hello, is there a way to tell apt not to upgrade some specific packages (say, kernel) when doing apt-get -y update ??? Some kind of masking I may say. | 02:26 |
| lcdd | krampo: yes, it's possible to put packages on hold | 02:31 |
| krampo | thanks, I couldn't figure out the keyword. Looks like it's easiest to do with aptitude? | 02:35 |
| lcdd | yeah, aptitude is probably best for that | 02:35 |
| laichzeit | any of you know if you can use the disk when a background resync is happening with software raid? | 02:37 |
| lcdd | laichzeit: you can | 02:38 |
| laichzeit | cool, thanks. | 02:38 |
| krampo | it seems that apt-get ignores aptitude 'hold' flag. only aptitude respects that, is it so? | 02:46 |
| soren | No. Apt-get respects it, too. | 02:47 |
| krampo | hmm...I just tried to put on hold some packages, but apt-get upgrade upgraded them, aptitude said that they have been kept back | 02:47 |
| soren | krampo: Which package have you put on hold and what happens when you apt-get upgrade? | 02:48 |
| krampo | I put on hold update-manager and update-manager-core (for example) | 02:48 |
| soren | Please run: | 02:48 |
| soren | dpkg --get-selections | grep update-manager | 02:48 |
| soren | and just paste the output here (shouldn't be more than two lines) | 02:49 |
| krampo | update-manager install | 02:49 |
| krampo | update-manager-core install | 02:49 |
| soren | Then aptitude is on crack. | 02:49 |
| soren | Run: | 02:49 |
| soren | echo update-manager hold | sudo dpkg --set-selections | 02:49 |
| soren | echo update-manager-core hold | sudo dpkg --set-selections | 02:49 |
| soren | That's it. | 02:49 |
| krampo | cool, thanks | 02:50 |
| krampo | now both are on hold | 02:50 |
| soren | np | 02:51 |
| krampo | cool, if I set hold using dpkg --set-selections, then aptitude respects it, if I set just in aptitude, apt-get doesn't get that hold | 02:52 |
| infinity | aptitude doesn't twiddle the dpkg selections. If you want that in a curses package manager, use dselect. | 03:12 |
| infinity | (yay, dselect) | 03:13 |
| soren | eek, dselect. | 03:14 |

| soren | aptitude keeps its own list of held packages? Evil! | 03:15 |
| infinity | aptitude does pretty much everything in its own special way. | 03:29 |
| infinity | And dselect actually works. :P | 03:29 |
| infinity | (I have years of bitter bias here, so take this with a grain of salt) | 03:30 |
| infinity | soren: What happened to "shawarma"? Too many complaints about your nick making people hungry? | 03:30 |
| soren | infinity: Kees revealed that you could hijack nicknames if they hadn't been used in more than 6 months. soren hadn't been used in almost three years. | 03:33 |
| soren | And was registered about a week before that. | 03:33 |
| soren | :) | 03:33 |
| soren | infinity: But yes, also too many complaints about making people hungry. :) | 03:33 |

| dendrobates | zul: pong | 04:05 |
| zul | dendrobates: for the ldap authentication stuff why arent we using redhat-config-ldap or whatever the program is called | 04:06 |
| zul | reading the ldap spec btw | 04:08 |
| dendrobates | zul: currently, the debian packages makes changes to pam-ldap and nss-ldap, that I believe makes it incompatible. One of the main purposes of the spec is to correct that. | 04:08 |
| dendrobates | zul: I wouldn't rule it out in the future though. | 04:09 |
| krampo | heh, speaking about ldap. Week ago I tried to set up authentication through ldap (our University has all students in ldap database), but I couldn't figure out how to map any ldap user to some local user. So users authenticate through ldap username/password, but get some local home dir (everybody the same, at the beginning). | 04:09 |
| dendrobates | zul: also, pam-ldap and nss-ldap are linked against openldap-2.1, which is missing some functionality. | 04:10 |
| dendrobates | krampo: map? how did you do it? | 04:11 |
| dendrobates | zul: the spec is a work in progress. | 04:11 |
| krampo | I couldn't :) | 04:11 |
| dendrobates | krampo: what did you try to do? what packages dod you install? | 04:12 |
| dendrobates | s/dod/did/ | 04:12 |
| krampo | libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap | 04:13 |
| krampo | I followed some manual about Debian/Ubuntu authentication through ldap | 04:14 |
| krampo | I got to the point where it authenticates username/password | 04:14 |
| krampo | but then got some error (tryin' to find it in syslog) | 04:15 |
| dendrobates | libnss-ldap when setup correctly, and should provide nss info. | 04:16 |
| dendrobates | of course, our ldap data must also be correct. | 04:16 |
| krampo | anyway, as I remember it was something about can't find group or something like that | 04:19 |
| dendrobates | did you create the necessary ou=group in your directory tree? | 04:20 |
| krampo | I was just thinking whether it's possible to use just username/password authentication from LDAP and everything else from local system | 04:20 |
| krampo | what's about that group? I just have read-only access to that LDAP server | 04:21 |
| krampo | everybody is in People | 04:22 |
| dendrobates | Ahh, it is possible you do not have sufficient access to search the directory for group information. | 04:22 |
| krampo | there are also ou=groups (for example grouped by faculties) | 04:22 |
| krampo | cn=faculty_name,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv | 04:23 |
| krampo | something like that | 04:23 |
| krampo | there should be separate group for those who can authenticate using ldap from linux? | 04:24 |
| dendrobates | the groups must contain the objectclass posixGroup and contain memberUid attributes. | 04:26 |
| dendrobates | you also must be able to search in that ou. | 04:27 |
| === SWAT [n=SWAT@ubuntu/member/swat] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| krampo | but the ou=People (where all those users actually reside) can't be used? | 04:35 |
| === leonel [n=leonel@189.155.154.25] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| dendrobates | krampo: it may contain primary group membership, but the system needs information about that group. i.e gid. and that is in ou=groups | 04:42 |
| === citybird [n=jones@fsz02.farner.ch] has left #ubuntu-server [] | ||
| krampo | they have set it up like this: | 04:44 |
| krampo | there's a group | 04:44 |
| krampo | cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv | 04:45 |
| krampo | it has ojectClass posixGroup atribute | 04:45 |
| krampo | and it has gidNumber | 04:45 |
| krampo | all the members are as attributes in that cn=teo | 04:45 |
| krampo | just listed | 04:45 |
| krampo | e.g zt12345, zt23435 | 04:45 |
| krampo | .... | 04:46 |
| krampo | each of them is memberUid | 04:46 |
| dendrobates | that's right. perhaps you just have a misconfiguration. | 04:46 |
| krampo | beginning of LDIF: | 04:47 |
| dendrobates | what os is the server running on? | 04:47 |
| krampo | 7.04 | 04:47 |
| krampo | aaa | 04:47 |
| krampo | lDAP? | 04:47 |
| krampo | I think it's AIX | 04:47 |
| krampo | or something like that | 04:47 |
| dendrobates | is it openldap or ibm directory server? | 04:48 |
| krampo | openldap I think | 04:48 |
| krampo | that's an open server, if you like you can check :) | 04:48 |
| krampo | http://bumbieris.lanet.lv | 04:48 |
| krampo | dc=lu,dc=lv | 04:48 |
| krampo | should be accessible from anywhere | 04:49 |
| krampo | AFAIK | 04:49 |
| krampo | dn: cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv | 04:50 |
| krampo | objectClass: top | 04:50 |
| krampo | objectClass: posixGroup | 04:50 |
| krampo | cn: teo | 04:50 |
| krampo | gidNumber: 213 | 04:50 |
| krampo | memberUid: zt30070 | 04:50 |
| krampo | beginning of LDIF file for that group | 04:50 |
| dendrobates | krampo: you should discuss this with your directory server admins. perhaps they have configuration steps for you. | 04:50 |
| krampo | then continues long list of memberUid | 04:51 |
| dendrobates | the group looks fine. | 04:51 |
| krampo | ok, but the group looks ok to you? | 04:51 |
| krampo | ok | 04:51 |
| dendrobates | however, if the server is ibm directory server, all is different. AIX clients and servers, modify the posix schema. | 04:52 |
| krampo | but on libnss-ldap reconfigure I should list the full path, right? cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv | 04:53 |
| krampo | dendrobates: thanks a lot. I'll check with server admins (they're not very talktive, you know :) and try to figure out how to solve this thing. | 05:03 |
| dendrobates | krampo: np | 05:05 |
| krampo | I know that windows classrooms in university are using tool called pagina (or smth. like that) and they're authenticating against POP3 (which is connected to the same LDAP) | 05:05 |
| dendrobates | krampo: that is a completely different thing, than Linux system authentication. It would not have the same requirements. | 05:07 |
| dendrobates | krampo: you should only give suffix when it asks for the search base i.e dc=lu,dc=lv | 05:10 |
| krampo | ok | 05:11 |
