[00:18] <lhoerste> should I use /usr/share/phpmyadmin or /var/lib/phpmyadmin for my phpmyadmin install?
[01:27] <osmosis> how do I get ride of the  apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed    when I do  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[03:02] <mralphabet> osmosis: look at your /etc/hosts file
[03:03] <mralphabet> osmosis: somebody else mentioned that the 127.0.1.1 line does not have a fqdn
[03:06] <osmosis> mralphabet: uhh  fqdn?
[03:07] <mralphabet> fully qualified domain name
[03:07] <osmosis> mralphabet: your right,
[03:07] <osmosis> mralphabet: i still get this though,  apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[03:08] <mralphabet> yup
[03:08] <mralphabet> that can be forced somewhere in the apache ini files, but that is just a warning, not a failure
[03:10] <mralphabet> by using the ServerName directive
[04:21] <nealmcb> osmosis: as they say, IIRC you can sop those apache warnings by putting the right fqdn for 127.0.1.1 (note 1.1) in /etc/hosts
[04:22] <osmosis> nealmcb: i go that part..im still getting    apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName  though
[04:30] <nealmcb> osmosis: hmm - well that is what worked for me, using a default apache install
[04:42] <osmosis> nealmcb: yah...that took away one error, but there is still another. i think its an apache.conf error
[05:20] <nealmcb> from this blueprint I gather that in gutsy I can't expect my cups printers to be automatically shared via avahi to macs on the local network: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/printer-sharing   but in hardy that now works.  so what is avahi being used for in gutsy (it is a dependency - libavahi-compat-libdnssd1)?
[06:10]  * nealmcb succeeds with sudo /usr/share/cups/enable_browsing 1  #edits /etc/cups/cupsd.conf sudo /usr/share/cups/enable_sharing 1
[06:12] <nealmcb> ...having found the out-of-date advice at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HOWTO-enable-cups-browsing (which I didn't find earlier since it didn't mention "avahi" - I'll fix that....
[06:29] <nealmcb> sommer: (ivoks?) more updates of that howto ^ would be good for post-dapper and to answer the questions about security and recommendations
[09:42] <kraut> moin
[11:35] <pteague> suggestion for a location to store the library files for vmware server?  /opt/lib/vmware, /usr/lib/vmware, or something else?
[13:36] <Gh0sty> is there a way to address all disks individualy from a software raid 5 by uuid?
[13:37] <Gh0sty> i have raid 5 consisting of /dev/sdb up to /dev/sdf which is ofcourse now /dev/md0
[13:37] <Gh0sty> would like to read out each disks temperature with hddtemp
[13:38] <Gh0sty> problem is: depending of the startup of my machine sometimes sdf becomes sda and sda becomes sdf ... so i cannot rely on the names. I would like to use UUID. But since i dont mount each disk individually i have no entries for eachc disk under /dev/disk/by-uuid
[14:20] <tt_> Would 256 MB is enough for unbuntu server?
[14:23] <tt_> Anyone?!
[14:25] <tt_> hi stormx :)
[14:28] <tt_> Would 256 MB ram is enough 2 run Ubuntu Server?
[15:25] <dthacker> tt_, yes
[15:25] <dthacker> but beware of swapping if you run heavy loads on it.
[16:51] <theunixgeek> How do I set up alpine to receive email messages?
[16:55] <spiekey> hey!
[16:55] <spiekey> my ubuntu box keeps spaming my tty with logs. How can i disable that?
[17:26] <spiekey> hi
[17:26] <spiekey> my ubuntu box logs my iptable stuff to tty0 and i cant use my tty anymore.
[17:27] <spiekey> any idea where i can change that?
[17:27] <spiekey> (i just asked this a few mins ago but got disconnected)
[18:02] <soren> spiekey: Can I see your iptables LOG rules?
[18:04] <spiekey> example: $IPTABLES -A Out_RULE_3  -j LOG  --log-level 3 --log-prefix "RULE 3 -- ACCEPT " --log-tcp-sequence  --log-tcp-options  --log-ip-options
[18:04] <spiekey> is that enough?
[18:08] <soren> spiekey: Yes. Just a sec. (I'm on the phone)
[18:09] <spiekey> brb, too
[18:10] <soren> spiekey: Why --log-level 3?
[18:11] <spiekey> i changed it to info ;)
[18:11] <spiekey> now it works
[18:11] <spiekey> i though this was a ubuntu issue
[18:11] <spiekey> thanks!
[18:11] <soren> Heh.. np :)
[19:25] <pteague> anybody know if /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vmware_drv.so something from the vmware server install?
[19:28] <mralphabet> pteague: I don't believe so
[19:29] <pteague> k, for some reason i'm having issues installing vmware & thought i might just try to start over
[19:29] <mralphabet> it is from x11/xserver-xorg-video-vmware
[19:31] <pteague> it's just weird cause i didn't have any issues installing vmware server on my box at work & the only difference is intel on this box instead of amd, 2 gigs of ram more, & the 8600gts has 512 instead of 256mb ram
[19:34] <pteague> any idea which gcc i should be trying to build this with? 4.2?
[19:38] <pteague> http://hashbin.com/ay
[20:06] <nealmcb> pteague - /srv/vmware?
[20:10] <pteague> ah, i figured it out... was trying to install 1.0.3 & should have installed 1.0.4... it seems to be working now
[22:18] <lifesf> hello :) I need help... i need to install dnsexit and it tells me to run setup.pl .... only typing setup.pl is telling me: [bash: setup.pl: command not found]
[22:19] <lifesf> Ubuntu Server 7.10
[22:21] <zul> lifesf: do you hvae perl installed?
[22:21] <lifesf> not sure...
[22:21] <lifesf> apt-get install perl?
[22:23] <zul> yep
[22:31] <lifesf> oki
[22:31] <lifesf> yes it was installed
[22:45] <SweMac> Hi... Having big issues trying to convert avi to 3gp on ubuntu server
[22:45] <SweMac> get unknown codec error
[22:45] <SweMac> Tried installing ffmpeg from medibuntu repo, but dont know how
[22:50] <lifesf> how do i run/install setup.pl?
[22:53] <SweMac> ./setup.pl
[22:53] <SweMac> ?!
[22:53] <SweMac> check that, chmod +x setup.pl
[22:54] <lifesf> i did ./setup.pl it worked :)
[22:54] <SweMac> Cool
[22:54] <lifesf> but now it's asking me if i want to run it as a daemon :S
[23:03] <soren> SweMac: #ubuntu is the channel for you. This has nothing to do with Ubuntu server.
[23:04] <SweMac> soren working great on ubuntu-desktop but having problems on ubuntu-server, but try there...
[23:04] <nealmcb> Gh0sty: e.g. /dev/disk/by-uuid/0b61784e-aec2-4112-b9d7-f1b9b8ee8a52 ?
[23:05] <nealmcb> or  /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:1f.1-scsi-0:0:0:0
[23:06] <soren> SweMac: Doesn't matter. The only difference between ubuntu server and desktop is the kernel and the set of packages installed by default. Neither has software for converting avi to 3gp, so you're not dealing with the default set of software anyway :)
[23:09] <nealmcb> soren: happy holidays - have you been getting a nice vacation?
[23:10] <Gh0sty> nealmcb: if i list all under /dev/disk/by-uuid/ my disks dont have individual uuid's
[23:10] <Gh0sty> since they are part of the array ...
[23:10] <nealmcb> Gh0sty: how about /dev/disk/by-id etc?
[23:12] <Gh0sty> how do you give a disk an id? :/
[23:12] <Gh0sty> remeber vague it was something with partitioning or filesystem based ... :/
[23:32] <lifesf> what is the difference between runnning in daemon and not?
[23:33] <soren> nealmcb: I'm completely knackered. I bought a house about a month ago, and I've spent the holiday working on it. As you have probably guessed, I'm not used to handling power tools for 10 hours a day..
[23:34] <soren> nealmcb: Thanks for asking, though. How about you?
[23:36] <lifesf> what is the difference between runnning dnsexit in daemon and not?
[23:39] <soren> lifesf: deamons typically detach from the terminal and keep running in the background.
[23:39] <soren> Gh0sty: You don't give disk id's yourself. They're automatically set by mkfs.
[23:42] <Gh0sty> ah really
[23:42] <Gh0sty> have to check ...
[23:42] <Gh0sty> woow
[23:42] <Gh0sty> what an id's :p
[23:43] <Gh0sty> can i somehow map such id's to something better readable? :p
[23:43] <Gh0sty> to use with hddtemp ;)
[23:47] <J_5> anyone ever created a terminal server with ubuntu? is this even possible?
[23:48] <Gh0sty> why shouldn't it be possible? :p
[23:50] <J_5> haha well...good point.
[23:51] <Gh0sty> what do you want? share your linux desktop for multiple clients? :/
[23:53] <J_5> well, yes. i just want to be able to access a desktop remotely
[23:54] <soren> J_5: That's even installed by default. Just enable it under System->Settings->Remote desktop or something to that effect.
[23:57] <J_5> well, can i do this. I have a ubuntu server. can i turn that into a terminal server? and login with RDP/VNC whatever?
[23:57] <soren> J_5: ...assuming you have a desktop running already and that's what you want to connect to. If not, you probably want to enable a vnc server in gdm or something.
[23:57] <soren> J_5: Yes. Ask google about vnc and gdm.
[23:57] <J_5> ok thanks
[23:58] <J_5> :)
[23:58] <soren> np :)
[23:58]  * soren goes to bed
