eikkehija01:07
eikkeI just set up pam_ldap/nss_ldap on some host and configured it. I am able to login, but I got a somewhat strange issue01:08
eikkewhen logging in through SSH, I get /bin/sh as shell. When logging in on a console, I get /bin/bash, as I'd want it01:08
jbrouhardsame user ?01:08
eikkein ldap I got loginShell set to /bin/bash, and getent passwd also shows the correct shell01:08
eikkeyes01:09
eikkeI'm quite puzzled, as I only touched the pam.d/common-* files01:09
jbrouhardodd01:09
jbrouhardwell, console is different01:09
jbrouhardUhm.01:10
jbrouhardI'm not sure, but aren't login profiles stored in a config file in the users home directory ?01:10
eikkeI just copied over /etc/skel to the homedir, shouldnt make a difference... using "login" sh isnt started at all, your default login shell as defined by nss should be spawned01:11
eikkeurgh01:12
eikkenow it works01:12
eikkedont tell me this is some NSCD thingy01:12
jbrouhardDunno, man01:15
eikkeits the only thing I can think of as I didnt change anything else. Sorry for bothering01:16
eikkeright, now up to configuring a https based svn server with ldap authentication01:17

vasalright05:35
vasI am configuring samba on my ubuntu server, I followed the tutorial in the Kubuntu Server Documentation, where I added realm = and KDS =..... but I still cannot find my domain from other computers05:36
vasmy second line of my hosts file is 192.168.1.204 server1.example.com server1 ... is this sufficient to allow my lan to see my server as a server as a samba server? do I need more config? I have found a couple things on this topic but they vary in this area...05:37
vasthat or when I add a user (smbpasswd -L -a user1) ... then I typer her password twice it says05:41
vasfailed to modify password entry for user105:42

Tron04Is this something ubuntu specific?11:47
Kamping_KaiserTron04, SCSI emulation is turned on for all drives11:58

fschoepSorry to chime in with a question, but a few hours ago my 6.06.1 i386 server almost instantly ran out of memory and swap. Could this have anything to do with the recent iptables / kernel vulnerabilities? I'm pretty sure there was no one on that machine with local privileges and only port 80 (apache2) and 110 (dovecot) are accessible from the outside.12:15
Burgundaviaif you are concerned, take the computer offline and poke at it12:17
Kamping_Kaiserfschoep, do you have any logs which could help you work out what happened?12:17
fschoepThat's what I did for about an hour, but except for some oomkiller notices in /var/log/messages there is not much to be found it seems.12:18
fschoepI can try to search for things interactively?12:18
fschoepMost system binaries are all timestamped correctly and no odd login attempts show up.12:18
fschoepIf the kernel vulnerabilities sound far-fetched, I can indeed try to look elsewhere.12:20
Kamping_Kaiserfschoep, check with rkhunter+similar tools. tbh though, if a systems been compromised, the only (sane) way to check it is from a live cd12:21
fschoepKamping_Kaiser: indeed, I'm keeping the old one up just to bridge to a reinstall.12:21
fschoepAbout four years ago I had something similar, which turned out to be a hacked phpBB installation, same symptoms with oomkiller showing up four or five times in the logs in quick succession.12:23

fschoepWell, I'll be on investigating this some more during the day while I prepare a stand-in machine. Thanks for the advice.12:38

Bambi_BOFHanyone here used bind before? i want to setup a dns server for the domain i just got. well, someththing like that.06:53
ScottKBambi_BOFH: Yes.  You can do that with BIND.  BIND is a complex piece of software with lots of knobs, so be prepared to spend time with the documentation and consider buying a book.06:56
Bambi_BOFHScottK, since i'm heading overease in about 27 hours, would doco downloadable off the net be enough to use aes reading material ?06:57
Bambi_BOFH(sorry about spelling, that time of night etc)06:57
Nafallobind9-doc includes ARM06:58
ScottKBambi_BOFH: Knowing nothing about your background, it's hard to say.06:58
Bambi_BOFH(i'm only leaning to bind because i'm told its The Right Thing, btw)06:58
Nafallowell... it is ;-)06:58
ScottKBut it's certainly a good place to start.06:58
ScottKMaybe stop at a good bookstore and pick up a copy of "DNS and BIND" from O'reilly too if you really want to be covered.06:59
Kamping_kaiserthat might hav eto wait until i get back06:59
ivoksevery time i thing i understand bind, it surprises me all over again :)07:23

Kamping_kaiseris there a way t test if an ntp server is active?08:19
Kamping_kaiserhalf my NTP servers have goen awol (according to ntpq -p ) i'm hoping to test to see if each server is tehre just not in my ntp stuff08:19
Kamping_kaisers/not working with my ntp stuff/08:19
=== BFTD [n=thomas@67-150-244-254.oak.mdsg-pacwest.com] has joined #ubuntu-server
jbrouhardnot sure if there is a way to test for the NTP itself to be active.. have you logged into the servers and checked to see if NTPD is running ?08:30
Kamping_kaiseri dont have logins to the servers, tehy are simply upstreams of my server, which i know have dns entries ( or did when i wrote the config), i cant even guarantee that tehy ahve dns open08:31
Kamping_kaiserer, ntp open08:31
jbrouhardhmm08:31
jbrouhardTry using their IPs instead08:31
ScottKChange you ntp server you're looking for to pool.ntp.org and if it gets better it's your upstream.08:31
Kamping_kaisershall i pastebin my ntp config + ntpq -p ? would it help understanding etc?08:32
Kamping_Kaiserhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30805/08:41
Kamping_Kaisertheres the paste, incase it helps08:41
jbrouhardI don't know08:45
jbrouhardcan you use pool.ntp.org ?08:45
Kamping_Kaiser+bbs.csie.ncyu.e 220.130.158.54   3 u   61   64  377  352.635  -55.918  22.59808:46
Kamping_Kaiserthat line is pool.ntp.org08:46
Kamping_Kaiser(whatever that is, its the randomly selected server)08:46
jbrouhardWhich means your client is going out to connect08:46
jbrouhardyou only have 5 NTP servers being reached, and all your internals aren't working, is that what's being said ?08:47
Kamping_Kaiser5 of my 9 external servers are reached are reached. 1 of my 3 locals are reached (because only 1 is currently configured)08:49
Kamping_Kaiserits the 4 externasl that are currently not reached that cause me to worry08:49
Kamping_Kaiser2 of them (ntp1,ntp2.adelaide.edu.au) are brand new (braught online in the last 24 hours), and could have problems, the others i dont know about08:49
