What didn't I do or did wrong? [05:14] I created my own certificate btw [05:16] If you didn't use your hostname as the common name when you created it, that's what happens. === halcyonCorsair [n=halcyonC@galaxy.liverton.net.nz] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:18] mkay, will try that, thx! [05:20] hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu 6.06 server onto an HP DL140 G3 with an LSI SAS RAID controller, but the 2.6.15 kernel doesn't seem to support SAS, and the partitioner can't find any drives, is there any way I can somehow install 6.06 but use a later kernel or something? [05:21] Not and have it be supported. [05:21] Ubuntu is getting close to releasing a 6.06.2 and newer hardware support is the primary reason. [05:22] I'd ask here during the week if your hardware will be supported. The people that would know are rarely here during the weekend. === pschulz01 [n=pschulz0@ubuntu/member/pschulz01] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:24] geh, its monday here... :( [05:24] is there a solid timeline on 6.06.2? [05:24] either way, i need this reasonably quickly, so support or no, is it possible? [05:25] hm. .2 took sits time [05:26] halcyonCorsair: Why 6.06? If you are going to do something that doesn't get LTS supported, why not try Feisty? [05:26] Most of the relevant people work in Europe, so standard working hours there. [05:27] ScottK: 6.06, because its currently our preferred platform for all our servers, and we want it to be as standardised as possible [05:27] Ah. [05:28] If I were in your position, I'd try Feisty and if it works, ask about if you hardware will be supported in 6.06.2. [05:29] scottk: if i wanted to use the same crt for a bunch of subdomains, would it be possible to set it to just domain.com rather than svn.subdomain.domain.com and still get it to work? [05:29] the kernel team did have something planned for driver backports, I'm not sure of its status though === PanzerMKZ [i=Panzer@06-134.136.popsite.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:30] rinman: I think, but am not sure, that you need to roll one cert per domain. I've never had to do it, so that may be wrong. [05:30] i did see a mention of a 2.6.15-50 kernel...is there any way I can install using that? (i don't know what the process would be to install to a kernel other than the one on the cd) [05:30] you can have an ssl certificate for *.domain.com [05:30] rinman: What ajmitch said. [05:31] oki, so should i write .domain.com, *.domain.com or just domain.com as the common name? === ScottK shuts up and lets ajmitch answer since he knows what he's talking about. [05:31] =) [05:32] halcyonCorsair: I don't either. [05:32] I believe domain.com vs *.domain.com are different [05:32] hmm === ScottK agrees with ajmitch since that seems to be working so far. [05:33] halcyonCorsair: The extremely painful way to do it would be to install a later working system (e.g. Edgy or Feisty), install the older kernel and then downgrade everying. Not sure if it's actually possible. === macd [n=d@cl-151.ewr-01.us.sixxs.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:34] ajmitch: sorry, but was that an answer? =) [05:34] rinman: in a sense [05:34] I think it was. [05:34] latest 2.6.15 kernel I see is 2.6.15-28.57 [05:34] rinman: Based on ajmitch's sense of an answer, I'd try *.domain.com and see how it works. [05:34] or not, that's security [05:35] 2.6.15-50.61 is in -proposed [05:35] its a shame i couldn't use a usbstick to load a new kernel while running [05:35] kexec would be useful there [05:37] 2.6.15-50.61 doesn't appear to have anything helpful in its changelog [05:37] i might have to go as high as 2.6.20 [05:38] That's the Feisty kernel, so at least it's available in a release and not just in the developmental version. [05:38] hmm [05:39] ajmitch: i think its the fusion mpt sas driver [05:42] ok, so i'm gonna try installing feisty for the moment [05:42] is there any particular advantage to a separate /boot partition when using xfs for the main partition? [05:42] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/37452 [05:42] Launchpad bug 37452 in linux-source-2.6.15 "fusion mpt sas driver does not find a RAID1 disk during installation(Sun Galaxy X4200 and X4100, Dell SASR5/i)" [High,In progress] [05:43] probably not, as grub should read xfs without any issues [05:44] ajmitch: yeah i found that before, just working my way through the links in the comments [05:44] some tedious workarounds in there [05:44] is there any advantage to a separate boot partition with the main partition being xfs on lvm? [05:45] yes, grub can't handle lvm [05:47] good to know [05:47] yay, it worked! thx a lot! [06:04] ok....so like...how different from 6.06 is 7.04? [06:09] halcyonCorsair: This is for server, right? [06:09] ScottK: yeah [06:10] The biggest thing you will immediately notice is that mounts are done by UUID instead of device name. [06:10] Upstart is used instead of the traditional Sys V init system, but it has a compatibility layer, so you may not even notice that. [06:11] ScottK: will be switching from mawk to gawk, using bind9 for dns, squid, dhcp3-server, and our own custom software [06:11] hmm, upstart.... >:( i hope so....i don't want to rewrite our init scripts again.... [06:11] Oh, one other big thing is the default shell switches from Bash to Dash, so no mor Bashisms. [06:12] You shouldn't have to. [06:12] mor/more [06:12] mounts by uuid is iky :( [06:13] ScottK: i think i need the crazy-mad bash stuff [06:14] your initscripts are full of bashisms? [06:14] '/bin/sh is a symlink, so you can change it. [06:15] Kamping_Kaiser: Why? It's the only thing that actually works reliably with mutliple SATA/RAID drives. [06:15] ajmitch: well....sec [06:15] ScottK, because its unreadable (by me). /dev/sda i can read [15 character string] i cant (or write) [06:16] Agreed, but unless you want random failures on reboot, for systems with multiple drives, it's the only way to fly. [06:17] yea. quite probably :( [06:17] Kamping_Kaiser: so use LVM on top & don't worry about it [06:17] ajmitch, potentially the first thing i've heard that makes me like the sound of lvm, but i dont like the 'one drive dies, you loose all' bit that i've herad of [06:18] so use LVM on RAID :) [06:18] what are the chances of this working in dash?: http://rafb.net/p/R9j5P643.html [06:18] or a separate volume group per drive, if you're that way inclined [06:19] my eyes... [06:21] thats what happens when you get help from #bash....i know what it does, and mostly how it does it, but.....its a monster nonetheless [06:22] i usually do pretty welll out of #bash [06:25] heh :) [06:25] greycat forever!

[02:55] same problem with Feisty [02:55] Hmmm [02:56] Do you have any IDE devices? [02:58] during the installation? [02:58] Yes. [02:58] Different 965 variants have one of two different IDE controllers (non-Intel) on them. [02:59] One has been problematic on kernel support and the other hasn't. [02:59] All of the 965 install problems I've seen relate to that. [03:00] On pure SATA systems that don't use the IDE controller, it generally installs fine. [03:00] yes. i had. sda and sdb [03:00] How about the CD/DvD? [03:01] one moment, i will reinstall again. [03:05] Sounds like the jmicron issue I came across, not that it will probably help but I had a similar issue on Asus P5B, updated the Bios and it's ok now. [03:07] Actually while I'm here, has anyone got Ubuntu to install on an old Compaq Proliant server? So far all I've got to boot is Centos/RH. I'm thinking it's either a RAM or Raid issue.

[04:39] ScottK: Sure, got it. [04:39] Just one more thing I want to check. Hang on. [04:40] OK. You were correct about README. I have a revised upload prepared. [04:43] ScottK: The build-dep on python-all-dev should be "(>= 2.3.5-11)", I believe. [04:44] Also, shouldn't there be a XB-Python-Version: ${python:Versions} ? [04:45] soren: debian/pyversions takes care of both of those I believe. [04:45] ScottK: No, not exactly. [04:45] No? [04:46] ScottK: The former is needed for pyversions (the script) to do the right thing (or something like that). [04:46] ScottK: The latter is needed, and in the absence of debian/pyversions, it will be used in its place. [04:46] ScottK: Did that make sense? [04:46] Yes. [04:46] "Note: if there's no debian/pyversions, dh_pysupport will try to use the XS-Python-Version field to find out the list of supported versions." [04:47] http://wiki.debian.org/DebianPython/NewPolicy [04:47] I'll add the python-all-dev versioned dependency. [04:47] Right. [04:47] So python-all-dev (>= 2.3.5-11) is what I need to add. [04:48] Er... Oh, I'm messing things up here. [04:48] XB-Python-Versions *is* needed, but the quote above is unrelated to that, actually. [04:48] So what's the point of debian/pyversions then? [04:49] I had a delivery arrive just now. I'll be back in a couple of minutes. [04:51] debian/pyversions specifies which versions of python the package is compatible with. [04:51] python-{support,central} extracts this info and creates a substitution variable that can be put in debian/control, namely ${python:Versions}. That's how I understand it. [04:56] ..so add the XB-Python-Versions, and I'm happy. [05:00] OK.

[09:44] is there a console ncurses tool I can use to enter the ssid and key for my wifi net? [09:45] man 5 interfaces [09:45] Or do I have to update /etc/network/interfaces manually? [09:45] It sounds like you don't have DHCP setup on your networking equipment === sahafeez [n=sahafeez@67.109.14.227.ptr.us.xo.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [09:45] it works well with dhcp [09:45] no problem [09:46] I just do an iwconfig ... then dhclient .. and it works === sahafeez [n=sahafeez@67.109.14.227.ptr.us.xo.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [09:46] I would like to have that set in stone though ;) [09:46] what release are you using? [09:46] the latest stable [09:46] ok [09:46] Do I want to know why you have a server that's connected with wireless? Probably not, right? :) [09:46] ha ha [09:46] Anyhow, you can configure your ESSID in /etc/network/interfaces. [09:47] The manpage is very friendly about the whole thing. [09:47] yes .. I know [09:47] though I was still wondering why there isn't a handy tool for setting it up [09:47] If your wireless NIC had been found at install, d-i would have let you configure it then too, but you may have skipped that bit if you had a wired network too. [09:47] while there is one during the installationprocess [09:47] Yeah, setting up a server with a Wireless connection is (a) a security hazard and (b) performance will always suck. [09:48] No need for a tool, really, the config file is easy enough to understand... [09:48] btw, how does ubuntu behave when the wifi connection goes away for a time and comes back .. will it automatically pick up where it left? [09:48] We have tools for GUI users, but (puts on his elitist jerk hat), a sysadmin that can't figure out interface(5) won't get much further with his system, IMO. [09:49] It should keep the association, in general. [09:49] infinity, sure its easy .. though it would be super easy just to run a curses program [09:49] okay [09:49] Yes, but it would be super-pointless for me to WRITE a curses application, since the config file is easy. See? :) [09:49] If it's an itch someone cares to scratch, they may. [09:49] Dose anybody know if ifolder will be available in the Universe repositories for 7.10 Gutsy? I know of some people who claim to have gotten it working, but only on 6.06. [09:51] infinity, well .. its an old discussion :) [09:59] Do any of you have a solid understanding of Samba3? === sahafeez [n=sahafeez@67.109.14.227.ptr.us.xo.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [10:02] ubuntu-jeff: you'd better ask your questions [10:02] ubuntu-jeff: someone may have enough understanding of samba3 to help you [10:04] ok [10:04] well... [10:05] If I setup a SAMBA share with Read (or Read Write Permissions) to /mnt/smb/data [10:05] Which is it's own partition (single hd, raid, not relevant for the question) [10:06] Then I set the noexecute option for /mnt/smb/data [10:06] in fstab [10:06] will that prevent the Windows XP/2k clients [10:06] from executing code (.exe's) stored on the server, available on the share? [10:06] ubuntu-jeff: no [10:07] Or will that only prevent Unix users, telnet / ssh'ed into the server from executing code in /mnt/smb/data? [10:07] ubuntu-jeff: windows copies the file to the windows client and executes it out of /userdata/temp/ [10:07] damn [10:07] so [10:08] Even though my nice shiny Ubuntu server is immune to viruses itself, it could become the typhoid marry of the network, if enough users make use of an infected file? [10:08] Even with noexecute set in fstab? [10:09] if they do not have write access to the share, the clients can't write back to infect files on the server [10:10] ok [10:10] thanks [10:10] this isn't a "ubuntu fails" type question (and I know you weren't going to say that) but this is a standard file serving issue === mralphabet sighs [10:11] ubuntulog: noexec can never stop anyone from executing code anyway. [10:12] Err. [10:12] Sorry, ubuntulog..
