Kamping_Kaiserrhineheart_m, did you type that pastebin out by hand?00:00
rhineheart_mnope.. I just pasted it.. I just hide the domain/machine name..00:00
Kamping_Kaiserrhineheart_m, was that stuff from mail.error or mail.log?00:01
rhineheart_m cat  /var/log/mail.log00:02
Kamping_Kaiserrhineheart_m, i want the last *30* lines of both mail.error and mail.log00:02
rhineheart_mcat /var/log/mail.error?00:04
Kamping_Kaisertail -n 30 /var/log/mail.error00:04
rhineheart_mgot this: tail: cannot open `/var/log/mail.error' for reading: No such file or directory00:05
Kamping_Kaiserrhineheart_m, `ls -lh /var/log/mail*`00:07
rhineheart_mgot this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57776/00:08
Kamping_Kaiserrhineheart_m, i suppose the last 30 lines of /var/log/mail.log /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.warn /var/log/mail.info would be useful00:10

AtomicSparki just had a whopper. mmm.00:13
Kamping_Kaisera what? o_000:13
AtomicSparklol. burger king.00:14
AtomicSparkand now i am setting at work. listening to groovy music.00:14
Kamping_Kaiseroh00:14
Kamping_Kaiserheh00:14
AtomicSparkwondering if i should install a server now or wait till 8.08 is released.00:15
Kamping_Kaiser8.04 ;)00:15
AtomicSparkwhatever.00:15
AtomicSparki almost got it right. :P00:15
Kamping_Kaiserand the answer really depends on how soon you need it stable00:15
AtomicSparkwhere do they get the version numbers?00:15
Kamping_Kaiser$(year -2000).(month)00:16
AtomicSparkhmm.00:16
AtomicSparki never thought of that.00:16
Kamping_Kaisershould have been : $(year -2000).$(month of release)00:16
AtomicSparkwell month of hopeful release ;)00:17
AtomicSparki hate how m$ does their years. its always the next year... like its a freaking car.00:17
Kamping_Kaiserno, month of release00:17
AtomicSparkso if it was delayed till may, it would be 8.05?00:17
Kamping_Kaiseryep.00:18
Kamping_Kaiserwhich is why dapper was 6.0600:18
AtomicSparkoh god i hope it's not delayed that long. waiting till april is enough.00:18
* Kamping_Kaiser was rather hoping this would get shifted to 8.06. lts needs more work imnsho00:18
* AtomicSpark hopes for desktop alt cd will work00:18
AtomicSparkstupid freezing on boot scripts. i read about it and lost interest lol. only can do live cd now.00:19
AtomicSparkoh well. at least server cd's work. :)00:19
AtomicSparkis there a list of updates to the hardy server? i've only seen the desktop "improvements".00:23
AtomicSparkof course it's probably just new versions of stuff.00:23

ethana2anybody here use virt-manager?02:20
AtomicSparkno.02:22
AtomicSparkalthough if it makes KVM easier, i would be happy. can't seem to figure out how to go host > guest networking.02:23
AtomicSparklike cant ssh to the machine.02:23
ethana2it makes it much easier02:26
ethana2I had it; networking just worked02:26
ethana2..but the second time just now it didn't..02:26
AtomicSparkhmm02:26
AtomicSparkcan you install it for 7.10?02:26
ethana2don't know02:27
ethana2I'm on 8.0402:27
AtomicSparknope D:02:28
faulkes-ethana2: iirc soren is handling kvm / virtio / virt-manager stuff on 8.0402:38
faulkes-I'm not sure what his current status on it is02:38
ethana2ok..02:42
ethana2my problem seems to be that virt-manager won't let me use the cd-rom even if it has permission to or something..02:42
ethana2there is no cdrom group on my system02:42
faulkes-however, if you have found a bug, by all means, report it to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy02:46
faulkes-create the cdrom group then?02:46
faulkes-just add something like "cdrom:x:<unique group number>:<your username>,haldaemon" to /etc/group02:49
ethana2uh02:53
ethana2I don't know anything about group numbers02:53
ethana2I'm filing a bug02:53

sorenethana2: Yeah, I noticed you talking about in #kvm this morning, too :)03:00
ethana2yes.03:00
ethana2and last night03:00
sorenethana2: Well, kvm can.03:00
ethana2they directed me to the CLI03:01
sorenethana2: Virt-manager makes some rather crude assumptions about what you can and can't do.03:01
ethana2I tried it and was exhausted and confused within minutes03:01
ethana2I see03:01
ethana2...can one of those crude assumptions be fixed?03:02
ethana2reading from an optical disk drive isn't that high risk..03:02
ethana2but I was running a windows virtual machine as root03:03
ethana2and networking didn't work that way03:03
sorenethana2: Well, yes, sure it can be fixed. It's just not as high priority as a lot of the other stuff I've got on my list.03:03
ethana2I see03:04
faulkes-ethan2: sounds like a job for a volunteer03:04
sorenIf you can send me a patch, though... :)03:04
ethana2well...03:04
faulkes-come to the dark side of the server team ;)03:04
ethana2I don't really know how to code03:04
faulkes-lots of ways to help other than just coding03:05
ethana2I wouldn't mind learning if someone had enough patience to lead me to being productive...03:05
ethana2hmm03:05
ethana2like filing bugs ;)03:05
faulkes-like bug reporting, testing, packaging, support03:05
faulkes-all that good stuff that makes our team rock03:05
ethana2yes03:05
ethana2I try to participate as much as possible03:05
faulkes-there is a mentoring process being setup by mathiaz03:05
ethana2ooooh03:06
ethana2sign me up03:06
ethana2my problem is this: we need to reinstall windows because it got a virus we can't remove03:06
ethana2we need to run the latest Office03:06
ethana2blasted standards incompliant mi...03:06
faulkes-iirc, send mail to mathiaz@ubuntu.com about mentoring03:06
ethana2 /anyway/... I don't want that code touching my MBR03:06
ethana2k03:06
ethana2..so I wanted to put windows in a little cage were it couldn't hurt anything03:07
faulkes-or check the server team wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam I believe it's listed there as well03:07
ethana2...but still use it for Office and such03:07
ethana2contacting him now..03:07
faulkes-ethan2: yeah, I know, I tried to install xp sp2 on a g4 via qemu ;)03:07
faulkes-lets just say, unless you have 5 days to wait for it to install, it really isn't that useful ;)03:08
faulkes-then again, a 350mhz process running seti at full blast and only giving qemu 256mb of ram probably didn't help03:08

ubotuLaunchpad bug 196559 in server-survey "target of questions is hard to follow." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19655903:14
ethana2so in the mean time, since filing that bug..03:18
ethana2am I advised to learn how to work this via CLI?03:18
ethana2I may give it a try, if someone can explain the process in a way that doesn't confuse the heck out of me03:18
sorenethana2: You can add the cdrom to the libvirt xml afer creating the rest of the stuff via the gui.03:20
faulkes-the server is shipped CLI, so getting comfortable with it is always good03:20
ethana2ok...03:20
ethana2where is this xml file?03:20
sorenWhat you want to do is do a "virsh -c qemu:///whateveryouusedtouse dumpxml nameofyourvm"03:21
sorenedit the output.03:21
sorensave it to foo.xml03:21
sorenAnd then do:03:21

sorenNo, > instead of |.03:21

ethana2now, I can't have any residual confusion03:22
ethana2so to avoid being overwhelmed again, I need to really understand all of that03:22
ethana2so03:23
ethana2what is virsh, exactly?03:23
ethana2and what I used to use for /what/?03:23
faulkes-ethan: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/advanced-topics/C/index.html is a good place to start learning about the server environment03:24
faulkes-re: CLI and other stuff03:25
ethana2well....03:25
ethana2I'm on a laptop03:25
ethana2never touched a server in my life03:25
ethana2opening link...03:25
faulkes-CLI principles still apply to desktop environments03:26
ethana2I can use the cli generally03:26
ethana2I use it to install stuff...03:26
ethana2I've gotten ubuntu gutsy working on a machine with two gpu's with vim in xorg.conf03:26
ethana2...but I have no familiarity whatsoever with virtualization03:26
* faulkes- nods03:27
faulkes-it's all about the reading and the talking, which you seem to be doing, we'll help as best we can03:27
ethana2(I don't know if you're aware of a certain xorg bug that makes that last accomplishment look really impressive....)03:27
nijabafaulkes-: regarding bug 196559, I think that it is a bit to convoluted and I don't see any simple way to solve that.  what do you think?03:27
ubotuLaunchpad bug 196559 in server-survey "target of questions is hard to follow." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19655903:27
ethana2I don't see virtualization on that page you sent me...03:28
faulkes-nijaba: I think some re-ordering may make sense but overall, I think it's convoluted03:28
ethana2also, this is ubuntu hardy..03:28
faulkes-ethan: it wouldn't be, however, that was server stuff, one sec03:28
ethana2k03:29
nijabafaulkes-: for the reodering, ok, but explaining what will be the impact of an answers over the rest of the survey?  I really don't see how, plus I believe it is not that important, IMHO03:30
=== puff is now known as jrhammer`
=== jrhammer` is now known as jrhammer
faulkes-ethan: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/jeos.html thats ubuntu specific and jeos specific but it does deal with virtualization03:30
=== jrhammer is now known as puff
ethana2k03:31
faulkes-nijaba: agreed03:31
faulkes-I'll make a note on it03:31
faulkes-and give some thought about ordering03:31
ethana2so it's recommended that I use vmware instead of virt-manager and such?03:32
ethana2Does it take advantage of the hardware acceleration present in C2D chips?03:32
ethana2I think it's called something like 'intel vt'03:33
faulkes-8.04 is going to use kvm03:35
faulkes-the docs are still being written03:35
sommerhey all03:35
faulkes-7.04 docs on KVM are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM - I wouldn't suggest using them, but reading them will get you familiar with stuff, plus links at the bottom03:36
faulkes-speak of the documentation devil himself03:36
ethana2ok03:36
ethana2so kvm is a method of acceleration03:37
ethana2that is used by xen and qemu03:37
ethana2ok, well I have all that installed and enabled in my bios already...03:37
ethana2I was running a vm that worked just fine..03:37

AnRkeywhy is webmin not supported on ubuntu?06:25
AnRkeyit works just fine for me06:26
Kamping_Kaiser'works for me' is not a big picture view...06:26
AnRkeyKamping_Kaiser, help me understand then06:27
AnRkey:D06:27
AnRkeyworks for me is probably not the best statement06:28
Kamping_KaiserAnRkey, its guilty of reguarly breaking system configuration, and is *amazingly* buggy and insecure06:28
AnRkeyyou see i run it on and have run it on many installs of ubuntu06:28
faulkes-iirc, webmin has in the past had isues with security, stability and support06:28
AnRkeyKamping_Kaiser, but then are we not supposed to help them with bug reports?06:28
faulkes-eBox is the current preferred solution for ubuntu06:29
Kamping_KaiserAnRkey, pardon?06:29
Kamping_Kaiserfaulkes-, hello06:29
AnRkeyfaulkes-, I like ebox but it does not do enough for me06:29
faulkes-if it's not supported, there would be no reason to submit bug reports06:29
faulkes-eBox is growing daily06:29
faulkes-zul just put up a whole whack of ppa's on LP06:29
AnRkeyKamping_Kaiser, i just don't understand why every1 stopped supporting it when (imho) we should help make it better06:30
AnRkeyis it really that bad?06:30
faulkes-I'm not arguing that webmin may have all the functionality you need06:30
AnRkeyand what are the examples of this06:30
Kamping_KaiserAnRkey, go and help make it better, just dont expect us to fix your system when it doesnt work :)06:30
faulkes-well, I don't that's an appropriate answer, however06:31
AnRkeyKamping_Kaiser, Thats not cool bud. I am asking not telling06:31
faulkes-it is simply a decision made by ubuntu06:31
Kamping_KaiserAnRkey, sure, and i'm telling you what i think.06:31
faulkes-if you feel strongly that webmin should be supported, you can bring it before the council06:31
Kamping_Kaiserit should however have been s/us/me06:31
AnRkeyis there a wiki page about this that is hidden somewhere?06:32
faulkes-about eBox?06:32
AnRkeyfaulkes-, how do i do that? is there a mailing list that non council members can email?06:32
faulkes-the wiki lists the various councils06:33
AnRkeyfaulkes-, no webmin06:33
AnRkeyfaulkes-, thanks06:33
faulkes-and yes, they have mailing lists and they meet on irc06:33
AnRkeyi don't want to bother the council, I am just reading up for now06:33
faulkes-more power too you06:33
AnRkeyare the meetings open to non members of the council?06:33
faulkes-to a point yes06:34
faulkes-if a meeting becomes out of order, they will take it private06:34
faulkes-iirc06:34
faulkes-but otherwise, they are open06:34
AnRkeycool06:34
AnRkeythanks faulkes-06:34
AnRkeygonna do some more reading first and then take it further06:34
* Kamping_Kaiser would have thought muting everyone else would be more apropriate06:34
faulkes-if you do plan to petition them for it though, I suggest you bring a very strong case06:34
AnRkeyi have looked around but there is no complete list of problems that ubuntu has with it06:35
AnRkeyor is there?06:35
AnRkeyfaulkes-, thats what my plan is06:35
faulkes-I can't fully answer the question06:35
AnRkeyI don't want to waste their time06:35
faulkes-it was a decision that was made prior to my joining and may in fact have been something related to debian06:36
faulkes-as we work closely with them06:36
AnRkeyKamping_Kaiser, this is open source, should we not always be open to fixing things if they are broken?06:36
Kamping_Kaiseri expect it was removed by debian (or you'll find discussion about it on debian-devel)06:36
AnRkeyyeah i read about the debian part in their lists06:36
Kamping_KaiserAnRkey, no we shouldnt.06:36
faulkes-AnRkey: it's all about support and development, commitment to maintain, etc.. as well as the actual application itself06:37
AnRkeyfaulkes-, thanks for your help06:37
faulkes-fixing oss is fine, but if you have to support it in a 5 year plan, thats a different story06:37
faulkes-np, glad to help06:38
AnRkeyI am trying to find an alternative and ebox is cool but just does not do all the cool things that webmin does06:38
faulkes-what do you need it to do?06:38
faulkes-you can always submit feature requests or see the latest development06:38
faulkes-https://launchpad.net/~zulcss/+archive06:41
faulkes-that is zul's latest work with ebox modules06:41
AnRkeybrb, client here06:42
AnRkeyis ebox going to be ready for 8.04?06:42
AnRkeyi have not checked it's progress06:42
AnRkeyalso, ebox tends to take over a bit06:42
AnRkeyin London my old network's firewalls use ubuntu with webmin06:43
AnRkeythe proxy and firewall is all done from there as well as vpn06:43
AnRkeyand webmin rocked for thi06:43
AnRkeythis06:43
AnRkeyebox worked well in tests but the biggest problem was that it wiped configs done manually06:44
AnRkeywe had a parent proxy for example that required one line of config to work06:44
AnRkeyebox kept wiping that line for some reason06:45
AnRkeyfaulkes-, it looks like ebox is my solution despite it's small problems that I have with it06:45
AnRkeythanks for the chat06:45

Bidouit's what i can get in my shell06:51
Bidouwhen i installed it06:51
Bidouan idea ?06:51
BidouAnRkey: ?06:51
=== c_schmitz|away is now known as c_schmitz
AnRkeythen you can set a root password06:52
Bidouhow ?06:52
AnRkeyhttp://keystoneit.wordpress.com/2006/10/28/resetting-mysql-root-password-in-ubuntu-dapper/06:53
AnRkeygoogle is your friend06:53
Bidouthanks, i'll see06:53
AnRkeyi googled reset root password mysql ubuntu06:53
AnRkeynp06:54
AnRkeyBidou, by default mysql's password for root is not set06:58
BidouAnRkey: hum sorry, for the first command i've a problem :/ "Any file or directory" > kill `cat /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid` cat: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid: any file or directory06:58
AnRkeysorry about that06:58
Bidoubut i cant change it ?06:58
Bidoui think it's an other problem06:58
AnRkeyis it a fresh install?06:59
Bidouof mysql-serv or gutsy ?06:59
Bidouyep it's a fresh install for mysql-server07:00
AnRkeymysql07:00
AnRkeysudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop07:01
Bidouwhat i have to do now ?07:02
AnRkeysudo mysqld --skip-grant-tables &07:04
AnRkeythat starts mysql so that you can login as root without a password07:04
AnRkeythen run07:05
AnRkeymysql -u root07:05
AnRkeythen you should be logged in to the mysql-server with root07:06
AnRkeythen run07:06
AnRkeyUPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD ('newpassword') WHERE User = 'root';07:06
Bidoui can see that in my shell: Version: '5.0.45-Debian_1ubuntu3.1-log'  socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'  port: 3306  Debian etch distribution /// But anythings  else happen now07:06
AnRkeyreplace newpassword with your new password07:06
AnRkeypush enter07:06
Bidoui think that's ok07:07
AnRkeyI have just tested that on one of my test boxs07:07
Bidouok07:07
AnRkeythen type exit to exit the mysql client07:07
AnRkeyand run07:07
AnRkeysudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart07:07
AnRkeyyou should be good to go07:07

AnRkeyBidou, it's not a bug if that's what you mean07:19
AnRkeyhi Jeeves_07:20

faulkes-heh, ok, enough trying to remember a language I havent spoken in 20 years ;)07:46
Bidousome people say, american are not very cultivate, is it true :p ?07:47
faulkes-thank you though, it brought back some wonderful memories of paris07:47
Bidouit's ok if i can understand ^^07:47
faulkes-I wouldn't say that, I have many good friends in america07:47
faulkes-it is the adjustment to many things, like food07:47
Bidouor maybe i was thinking about geographic07:49
faulkes-and like many countries, they have perceptions of other countries which aren't true07:49
Bidousure!07:49
faulkes-it is just an adjustment from what you are used to being around, to new surroundings07:50
faulkes-for some people, it is easy, for others, very difficult07:50
Bidoui think people must be interressted if they want to be cultivate07:51
faulkes-cultivate = cultured?07:51
Bidouyeah xD07:52
faulkes-cultivate in english is usually referred to growing plants07:52
Bidoulol xD07:52
Bidouok i've to keep learning english07:52
Bidouthe best solution is to go in us and learn by listening07:53
faulkes-thats entirely more difficult in new york or connecticut07:53
Bidoulast time i was in us was last summer and after 2 month i spoke english well07:53
Bidouwhy ?07:54
faulkes-'cause in new yawk, it's like dey speak a different language, use knows?07:54
Bidoui didn't know yet07:54
faulkes-very accented english07:55
Bidousome people in new york cant understand other people in new york ?07:55
faulkes-like dialects, consider that quebec french is very very different from parisien07:55
faulkes-they do, but only because they live there everyday07:56
Bidouquebec is very different but a french can easy understand quebec07:56
faulkes-however, travelling, exploring and learning are all good07:57
Bidouit's better to leave in wich parts of us ?07:59
Bidoulol are you searching on google ?08:00
faulkes-leave or live?08:01
Bidouoh sorry: live08:01
faulkes-boulder, colorado is nice, so is san francisco08:01
faulkes-new york is nice as well, especially if you enjoy dancing/night clubs etc08:02
Bidoui went to las vegas but never to sans fransisco08:02
faulkes-I remember my time exploring paris, I got off at les alles, was with an american woman I was seeing at the time08:02
Bidounew york and for theater too :p (broadway, i saw grease, en the chorus line)08:02
faulkes-we walked around, enjoyed a cafe and then down to the seinne, walked along it and came to the louvre08:03
faulkes-she asked "I wonder what the big old building is"08:03
* faulkes- had to laugh a little bit08:03
Bidoulol yeah, le louvre is so beautiful08:04
Bidouand so old08:04
faulkes-although I have to say, navigating the paris subway system is a nightmare if you've only been in the city two days and you've been drinking for 6 hours08:04
faulkes-the damn things just keep going in circles until you reach the turnstiles08:05
faulkes-but I loved my time there, I want to go back again08:06
Bidoulol, maybe yes, but with a guid that isn't good ?08:06
faulkes-walk along st. germaine08:06

faulkes-walked from les alles station to the eiffel tower08:08
Bidouok but trocadero is maybe the most beautiful ^^08:08
faulkes-taking side streets, stopping at cafes08:08
faulkes-looking in little shops08:08
Bidouoh that's the best !08:08
Bidoueven for me08:08
faulkes-in new cities I like to take long walks around the neighborhoods rather than subways and taxis08:10
faulkes-gives you a much better feel and enjoyment, for me at least08:10
faulkes-discovering new places08:10
faulkes-ok, now it's time for bed, I've been reminiscing for too long08:11
faulkes-enjoy your day Bidou08:11

Kamping_Kaiserno, not real servers.12:26
henkjansemi redundant with two dhcp servers with both theire own scope works nice12:27
Kamping_Kaiserif you set two servers with the same ranges and make sure only one is authoritive you should be mostly ok12:28

Kamping_Kaisersergevn, ah, np *hehe*12:30

faulkes-nijaba: I am now12:46
sergevnKamping_Kaiser: yes, but it does not automaticly take over12:50
Kamping_Kaisersergevn, it should become authoritive when the first server goes away12:50

ubotuLaunchpad bug 196854 in fail2ban "fail2ban doesn't handle leap years" [Undecided,Confirmed]21:23
LiENUSwhy should i open another bug when one already exists?21:23
LiENUSthe official position seems to be that 6.06 is unsupported and the fix is to upgrade to a newer version21:24
LiENUShence i came to ask if that was true or not21:24
zulLiENUS, its supported but its in universe so the fix has to be fixed in hardy first and backported ill look into it. For now you might wan to get the source from upstream21:26
zulI meant to say 6.06 is supported but fail2ban is in universe which is not supported21:28
LiENUS http://breakherthewang.com/fail2fix  is a patch based upon the patch from the fail2ban guys21:33
zulthanks...ill try to get the fix in for hardy now21:34
