hansin | Does anyone know why you can not set the framebuffer in GRUB in Ubuntu and get the kernel messages (or for that matter to get it to boot to a CLI only system)? I'm talking about adding VGA=775 to the kernel line. | 02:33 |

stonehelm | couple of questions about PAM and per-user limits: on a default system the max number of open-file (per user) is 1024, is this defined in the kernel? | 12:07 |
stonehelm | and how can I check the current number of open files for a user? is lsof |wc -l enough? | 12:08 |

admin21ten | hello all | 05:33 |
admin21ten | is this a user support or a developer channel? | 05:39 |
Nafallo | both AFAIK | 05:40 |
Nafallo | admin21ten: please read the topic :-) | 05:40 |
admin21ten | I just installed ubuntu server and I am trying to setup a gateway which will take a wireless signal on ra0 and distribute it on eth0 to several APs which will hook to it on a switched network | 05:42 |
admin21ten | with that context, I was wondering if anyone could provide me with information on packages that would make this easier to do | 05:43 |
admin21ten | s/information/recomendations | 05:43 |
admin21ten | I had previously installed IPCOP, but I was unable to set the wireless card up as the RED interface | 05:44 |

admin21ten | ATAWolfpack: what up, fellow kcluger! | 05:48 |
=== admin21ten aka luckyone | ||
ATAWolfpack | Howdy! | 05:49 |
admin21ten | ATAWolfpack: care to help me decide on some packages which will make managing my building's router/gateway a little easier? | 05:50 |
admin21ten | ATAWolfpack: I tried IPCOP before but couldn't get it to let me use ra0 as RED interface | 05:50 |
admin21ten | now I am on good ol' ubuntu, I have the wireless interface ra0 configured as my primary, and I am connected on it right now | 05:51 |
admin21ten | ATAWolfpack: now I just need to figure out how to share this connection with eth0 and configure eth0 to be what my GREEN network would have been in IPCOP | 05:52 |
ATAWolfpack | Hmm | 05:53 |
ATAWolfpack | i don't know much about IPCOP.. i mostly use shorewall or firestarter | 05:53 |
admin21ten | does shorewall have a gui? | 05:53 |
admin21ten | I think that is what I want to use | 05:53 |
=== ATAWolfpack1 [n=jbrouhar@cm-207-192-233-238.stjoseph.mo.npgco.com] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
ATAWolfpack1 | bloody hell... the wireless here is REALLY messed up. | 05:56 |
ATAWolfpack1 | Shorewall doesn't have a GUI. it's entirely command based. it uses configuration files to build the iptables rules | 05:57 |
admin21ten | hmm, I am worried that will be a little over my head and very much over the head of the person who manages this when the day comes for me to move out | 05:58 |
admin21ten | I mean, it isn't really the firewall part that I am worried about, it is more about configuring the gateway | 05:59 |
admin21ten | that is all I need to do to get this part of the project done | 05:59 |
=== ATAWolfpack1 is now known as jbrouhard | ||
admin21ten | we will not be on the big, bad internet... we are simply taking the library's wifi signal and distributing that across our building | 06:00 |
jbrouhard | Smoothwall is fairly straightforward. | 06:01 |
jbrouhard | the configs are pretty much written in end-user language | 06:01 |
admin21ten | cool | 06:01 |
admin21ten | does it allow me to do what I want to do? | 06:01 |
admin21ten | ie, dhcp and configure a gateway | 06:01 |
jbrouhard | I think so | 06:01 |
jbrouhard | Well, yeah | 06:01 |
jbrouhard | DHCP is external | 06:01 |
jbrouhard | if you want a howto, i have one | 06:02 |
admin21ten | how to set up shorewall?!? | 06:02 |
admin21ten | or DHCP? | 06:02 |
admin21ten | the DHCP part I am less worried about it, I am thinking I might just have the WRT54GL's handle that at the AP level and give them static addresses | 06:03 |
admin21ten | jbrouhard: what do you think of smoothwall? | 06:04 |
peanutb | hmm. anyone know why lsb_release might be takeing up 99% of the CPU? | 06:06 |
peanutb | im on a dapper VPS | 06:07 |
peanutb | admin21ten, shorewall is great if you want a dedicated box as a DHCP server. What it lacks is easy expandibility | 06:08 |
=== peanutb has one sitting behind him | ||
peanutb | its a bit of a waste of power | 06:09 |
peanutb | i recomend something that can provide more features such a ebox ect | 06:09 |

=== ATAWolfpack is now known as jbrouhard | ||
jbrouhard | admin21ten sorry about that | 06:15 |
jbrouhard | admin21ten How many computers are in question ? you can use static IP for probably up a handful of computers | 06:18 |
jbrouhard | but if you have a large # of computers (say more than a dozen) DHCP is really the best way to go | 06:18 |
admin21ten | jbrouhard: sorry, was reading shorewall doc and I don't have this screen set up to tell me about alerts in other screens... | 06:24 |
jbrouhard | NP | 06:25 |
admin21ten | jbrouhard: there will be 7-8 AP's that I would address statically, then let them use dhcp to issue addresses | 06:25 |
jbrouhard | I have a debian firewal how-to.. | 06:25 |
jbrouhard | includes DHCP, Shorewall, Cacheing DNS | 06:25 |
admin21ten | donde? | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | donde ? | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | huh? | 06:26 |
admin21ten | where? | 06:26 |
admin21ten | heh | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | LOL | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | I'm planning to adapt and modify this for Ubuntu-Server, maybe include it as a SOHO option | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | http://www.cyberdogtech.com/firewalls/ | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | and FYI, i really don't recommend linux as an AP | 06:26 |
jbrouhard | :) | 06:27 |
admin21ten | BSD? | 06:27 |
jbrouhard | unless you're using a commercial AP. | 06:27 |
jbrouhard | meh | 06:27 |
jbrouhard | Never heard of much luck using anything other than hardware-based AP's. | 06:27 |
admin21ten | really, so you think it is going to be tough to for me to set this up? | 06:28 |
admin21ten | what I want to do seems simple to me | 06:28 |
admin21ten | take ra0, share that over eth0 and let 7-8 wireless ap's connect to it | 06:29 |
jbrouhard | hmm | 06:29 |
jbrouhard | Maybe i'm not getting this | 06:29 |
jbrouhard | ra0 is what? your internet link ? | 06:29 |
admin21ten | yes | 06:29 |
jbrouhard | or wireless ? | 06:29 |
admin21ten | ra0 is the wireless nic that will connect to the Downtown Library's wifi network | 06:30 |
jbrouhard | I see. | 06:30 |
admin21ten | (they are proponents of this btw) | 06:30 |
jbrouhard | heh | 06:30 |
admin21ten | so this box is responsible for connecting to that signal, then feeding the network we build in house | 06:31 |
jbrouhard | hmm | 06:32 |
jbrouhard | to keep it simple and not mess with your brain... | 06:33 |
admin21ten | hah | 06:33 |
jbrouhard | I'd set up a router/gateway on the box in question, and use your own IP address network. | 06:33 |
jbrouhard | i'm presuming that's your opinion ? | 06:33 |
admin21ten | yes | 06:33 |
admin21ten | that is exactly what I want to do | 06:33 |
jbrouhard | hmm | 06:44 |
jbrouhard | the howto i sent you should do the trick just as easily. | 06:44 |
jbrouhard | you should be able to modify the howto to work with *buntu, since it's based on debian | 06:44 |
admin21ten | jbrouhard: quick question for you... if ifconfig doesn't show my eth0 card (I thought it did, and it is recognized in lspci) what do I need to do to get it to show up? | 07:03 |
jbrouhard | check /etc/network/interfaces | 07:05 |
jbrouhard | eth0 may not be set to "auto" | 07:06 |
