[04:58] <_ruben> yes [04:58] <_ruben> most likely around that time [04:59] <_ruben> my lost+found dir has a similar timestamp, so that'd be correct [04:59] ok... that could be a root of the problem [05:00] and you can edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules now and rename interfaces to the ones you want [05:00] <_ruben> sure [05:00] the thing with eth2/eth3 instead eth0 and eth1 is fixed (but, i'm checking it again) [05:01] <_ruben> i really need to edit my inputrc to have pgup/pgdn scroll through my bash history .. its a habit/feature i dont want to lose ;-) [05:03] <_ruben> and some terminal configuration as well .. when pressing arrow keys in edit mode in vi(m) causes D/B/... chars to be printed instead of cursor movement [05:03] <_ruben> smth i recall from my slackware 4.0 machine :-P [05:03] _ruben: I have that too, it drives me crazy and I am not sure how to fix it [05:04] <_ruben> 5 o'clock .. time for me head home [05:04] <_ruben> thanks for the support so far and have a nice weekend [05:07] _ruben: wait === _ruben burns some skidmarks in the carpet [05:07] :) [05:07] _ruben: add the information about /var/log to that bug [05:08] <_ruben> ah ok [05:09] <_ruben> having /var/log as seperate partition might need a bug on its own .. /var/log/boot shows: (Nothing has been logged yet.) [05:09] _ruben: great, then report it as a new bug :) [05:11] <_ruben> any particular package i could file that against? [05:11] udev [05:12] <_ruben> the /var/log/boot one is udev related as well? [05:13] bug will be reassigned to proper package if udev is wrong [05:13] it's just important to get that on LP ASAP, since launch is near [05:14] <_ruben> ok [05:14] i think scott is already working on it :) [05:15] <_ruben> Bug #149476 filed [05:15] Launchpad bug 149476 in udev "Having /var/log as a seperate partition breaks udev and possibly more" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/149476 [05:15] <_ruben> (couldnt think of a more proper title for the bug, its friday afternoon, weekends around the corner ;-)) [05:15] it's ok :) [05:16] <_ruben> it took quite some thinking to get to this one ;-) [05:17] thanks for all the info and help [05:17] <_ruben> same to you [05:17] <_ruben> am i allowed to go home now ? ;-) [05:18] :D yes :D [05:18] <_ruben> might go play a ball or two of table soccer in the basement first tho .. will be back monday :-) [05:18] enjoy your weekend [05:19] <_ruben> you too === lousygarua [n=lousygar@DSL217-132-173-209.bb.netvision.net.il] has joined #ubuntu-server === stickystyle [n=stickyst@65-97-153-194.ftl.fdn.com] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:59] um soren ... :) [05:59] soren: i just tested with daily from yesterday... and the bug with interfaces is still there :/ [06:03] ivoks: d-i might need a rebuild to catch the new busybox.

[06:20] It may be some kind of record. 4 minutes from I filed the backports bug to the archive had released the backport! === mvo [n=egon@p54A65B9A.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [06:23] ScottK: ok. [06:23] It seemed more on topic here. [06:23] Yes. I know almost nothing about samba [06:23] ScottK: every now and then there is a request file in LP that samba should be upgraded to suppor the latest and greatest. [06:24] Which is, in general, what backports is for. [06:24] ScottK: I was wondering if dapper-backport could be used for shipping the latest samba [06:24] ScottK: so that people can use the latest version of samba or choose the one that is supported. [06:25] Sure. The key questions are: [06:25] ScottK: I was thinking about putting the latest version from samba in dapper-backports. [06:25] 1. Are there rdepends that it breaks? [06:26] 2. Does it work (who's got Dapper and is going to test it)? [06:26] 3. When it falls over and dies and users file bugs, who can I point a finger at? [06:27] ScottK: for 3. I guess that users will file a bug directly under samba for ubuntu. [06:28] ivoks: I checked, and yes, that's the case. [06:28] ScottK: so ubuntu-server will receive it. [06:28] soren: great [06:28] mathiaz: And if they do, you should mark it invalid and tell them to file against dapper-backports. [06:29] ScottK: right. May be ubuntu-server could be added as a bug contact for samba in -backport [06:29] ivoks: Yeah, so it's under control, and as soon as my module-init-tools build is done, I think cjwatson will be doing a new d-i build, so either tomorrow or the day after. [06:29] For backports it's all or nothing. [06:29] I think we can leave it that if there are problems, I'll scream and you'll deal with it. [06:29] Oh. Almost forgot: [06:29] 4. Are all the dependencies present in Dapper. [06:30] That's important too. [06:30] ScottK: yes. of course. [06:30] ScottK: I won't try to publish in dapper if it cannot build. [06:30] ScottK: what do you mean by "all or nothing" ? [06:31] If you are a dapper-backports bug contact you get ALL the dapper-backports bugs, not just specific packages. [06:32] ScottK: you cannot set a bug contact for the specific package ? [06:32] No. [06:34] ScottK: is it by policy or for a technical reason ? [06:34] Technical [06:34] We don't file bugs in backports by package, just against the project. [06:35] ScottK: ok. [06:36] It's no problem for me to point you at stuff that comes up, I just want to make sure there's someone that will figure Samba stuff out as I'm virtually completely ignorant on Samba. [06:36] ScottK: ok. I understand your point of view. [06:37] ScottK: I may bring that up during next ubuntu-server meeting. [06:37] So, if you decide to go for it, test the package out and then file a bug in dapper-backports.

Some functions that use sendmail are not sending mail yet not returning any errors. Does the default installation of PHP5 built for Ubuntu disable sendmail in any way? [09:17] maestrojed: Did you install an MTA? One isn't included by default. [09:20] ScottK: I don't know what an MTA is? [09:20] ScottK: so, no, I did not install one :) [09:20] maestrojed: Mail Transfer Agent (aka mail server). [09:21] Then you have no sendmail. [09:21] !mta | maestrojed [09:21] Sorry, I don't know anything about mta - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [09:21] ohhh, no this is the first server I built and I followed the direction for a standard LAMP server but didn't now I had to do that. [09:21] the piece of software that accepts a message, wraps stuff around the message, then is capable of handing the message off to another machine = MTA [09:22] Gotcha, Thanks for all this info. I will read up on it and try to get one installed [09:22] maestrojed: LAMP is apache mysql (or postgresql) and php (or python or perl) [09:23] mralphabet: right, I just thought sendmail was a self contained function in PHP that could send mail. I did not realize it needed a MTA [09:23] mta isn't in that equation ;) I would suggest postfix, it seems the standard preference [09:23] great [09:23] maestrojed: gotcha === ToonArmy [n=chris@82-32-184-195.cable.ubr04.newt.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-server [09:27] "sendmail" is an MTA by itself [09:27] there are several large MTA packages [09:27] Sendmail, EXIM, Postfix [09:29] Postfix is the primary/most supported in Ubuntu, but you can use pretty much whichever one you want. [09:30] there are other smaller ones too, but like ScottK said, postfix is probably the way to go [09:30] does the postfix configuration set up a symlink for /usr/sbin/sendmail? and does postfix accept the same args? [09:30] the way exim4 does? [09:30] now that we have beat that issue to death . . . [09:31] dantalizing: Yes. One of Postfix's primary design goals was to be externally compatible with Sendmail. [09:31] thx [09:33] dantalizing: The other ones were to be more secure and more comprehensible. [09:34] Even today, "Sendmail does X, so please fix Postfix" is generally an acceptable request. [09:34] need to try migrating one of my systems to postfix [09:35] Hey I appreciate it because I know not what I am doing :) So all this info is great [09:37] For anyone learning Postfix, I highly recommend "The Book of Postfix". It covers everything you need to know in a logical, detailed way. Not just Postfix specifics, but the theory behind it too. [09:40] is that available via apt? or $ only? [09:41] nm... [09:42] Which?
