| kirkland | owh: fwiw, diffs usually end in .diff, rather than begin with them :-) | 00:05 |
| kirkland | owh: at least vim will syntax highlight as a diff/patch if they end in .diff or .patch ;-) | 00:06 |
| owh | kirkland: Tah. I tried calling you about it last week but you were not around and I forgot to follow it up. The apache patch I sent you was the wrong way around, that is from new to old :( | 00:07 |
| owh | kirkland: I fixed it on the bug report :) | 00:07 |
| kirkland | owh: it's not a big deal, just thought I'd mention | 00:07 |
| kirkland | owh: the actually code being there is more important | 00:07 |
| owh | kirkland: Yup. Tah, It was more a function of my automated script. It allowed me to parse/filter/etc. | 00:08 |
| kirkland | owh: fair enough | 00:08 |
| owh | kirkland: Yeah, we're discussing how to deal with Debian in ubuntu-bugs atm. | 00:08 |
| * faulkes- is not happy | 00:30 | |
| * faulkes- is not happy about missing todays meeting | 00:30 | |
| kgoetz | :( | 00:30 |
| * faulkes- is not happy about a missing 2600 cisco and a missing 2900 switch | 00:31 | |
| kgoetz | never mind. i missed it too | 00:31 |
| faulkes- | on the plus side, after spending far too much time, I did manage to finally our iscsi box on the network so it can be configured | 00:31 |
| faulkes- | 6.0TB in it too | 00:31 |
| kgoetz | "to finally our" ... missing 'get'? | 00:32 |
| faulkes- | just a very long day of being wedged between a 2 ton AC unit, a rack cabinet and the white noise of 2k sq of servers | 00:32 |
| faulkes- | yes, forgive me, I missed the get ;) | 00:33 |
| Deeps | ouch | 00:33 |
| faulkes- | yeah, it was all kinds of awesome | 00:33 |
| faulkes- | apparently nobody knew that we had a cisco 7505 | 00:34 |
| Deeps | shit like that is why i quit being a dc monkey, heh | 00:34 |
| kgoetz | hehehe | 00:34 |
| * faulkes- is *not* a dc monkey | 00:34 | |
| Deeps | you spent the day in a dc, sounds like a monkey to me ;) | 00:34 |
| faulkes- | unfortunately, I was forced to go in | 00:34 |
| kgoetz | "i was forced to! my pants kept falling down." | 00:35 |
| faulkes- | I'm not a politician ;) | 00:35 |
| Deeps | heh, monkey for a day aint so bad | 00:35 |
| faulkes- | more like janitor | 00:35 |
| faulkes- | because 2 people were fired over this entire mess | 00:35 |
| Deeps | whoops | 00:36 |
| kgoetz | :O | 00:36 |
| Deeps | bleh, .ca | 00:36 |
| faulkes- | yeah well, add it to there lessons learned | 00:36 |
| kgoetz | thats a pretty messy mess | 00:36 |
| Deeps | (im unemployed currently and it sounds like whereever you work might be hiring now ;)) | 00:36 |
| faulkes- | heh | 00:36 |
| Deeps | but .ca's too far | 00:36 |
| * faulkes- recalls we do have a fl.us head office | 00:37 | |
| * faulkes- is waiting for the .uk office though | 00:37 | |
| Deeps | i'm in .es | 00:39 |
| Deeps | and looking for telework atm | 00:39 |
| faulkes- | depends, what is your skill set like | 00:40 |
| Deeps | umm, 2-4 years linux experience, java, php, sql, bash, basic python, ccna level (but not yet certified) cisco skills | 00:42 |
| Deeps | a bachelors degree but few people tend to care about that already despite it being only 8 months | 00:42 |
| rhineheart_m | how to determine if fastcgi has been installed to my server? | 01:21 |
| rhineheart_m | can anybody here guide me on how to install fastcgi? | 01:29 |
| PanzerMKZ | fastcgi in blender? | 01:30 |
| rhineheart_m | fastcgi for apache | 01:32 |
| PanzerMKZ | go to #apache | 01:33 |
| kgoetz | rhineheart_m: tried running `apt-cache search fastcgi` yet? | 01:33 |
| rhineheart_m | not yet. that would if I have it installed already or not, right? | 01:33 |
| kgoetz | `dpkg -l |grep cgi` to list packages related to cgi | 01:34 |
| rhineheart_m | kgoetz, I got this one: ii libfcgi-perl 0.67-2 FastCGI Perl module | 01:41 |
| kgoetz | rhineheart_m: now `apt-cache show libfcgi-perl` | 01:42 |
| kgoetz | rhineheart_m: dont PM me | 01:46 |
| rhineheart_m | kgoetz, that was the content | 01:46 |
| kgoetz | rhineheart_m: i dont care. its for your information | 01:46 |
| rhineheart_m | kgoetz, okay. it doesn't help | 01:49 |
| Silvano | are there any noticable improvements from ubuntu server 7.10 to 8.04? | 02:10 |
| kgoetz | LTS support | 02:13 |
| andguent | I'm curious to know the same, all I know for sure is that when possible, it seems best to keep up with the latest, Ubuntu developers move too fast to leave your system completely alone for years :) | 02:13 |
| kgoetz | with luck it'll be more stable too (gutsy isnt renoun for its stability) | 02:13 |
| kgoetz | although that is mainly desktopland. serverland seems to be ok | 02:14 |
| flyback | oh really? | 02:15 |
| flyback | thx | 02:15 |
| flyback | you just solved a worrysome issue with 2 of my sisters | 02:15 |
| flyback | err systems | 02:15 |
| * flyback hates trying to type few mins after waking up from a deep sleep | 02:15 | |
| kgoetz | heh | 02:15 |
| flyback | ugh | 02:15 |
| flyback | brain rattle | 02:15 |
| Silvano | so if i've already got 8.04, and am about to reinstall on a different harddrive, there should be no reason or benifit to go with 7.10 then? | 02:15 |
| flyback | thyat was a seriously wacky dream too | 02:16 |
| flyback | although beats the last 5 yrs of paxil nightmare hell :/ | 02:16 |
| flyback | anyways | 02:16 |
| Silvano | lol | 02:16 |
| andguent | if 8.04 works, use it, it will be officially released soon enough | 02:16 |
| flyback | I have had a hell of a time trying to put the right kernel in 6.06lts | 02:16 |
| Silvano | sounds good andguent. thanks for your advice :D | 02:17 |
| flyback | ended up just having to remove all the stuff with kernel or linux in it then apt-get the right one based on the dpkg list I got from a temp vm I setup | 02:17 |
| kgoetz | flyback: if you can afford a month of 'work in progress', then go with 8.04 | 02:17 |
| flyback | na it's just to run vmware server | 02:17 |
| flyback | i've decided on fedora at home guys no offence but some stuff rubb3ed me the wrong way | 02:17 |
| flyback | but stuck with 6.06lts at work :P | 02:18 |
| * kgoetz feels no pain | 02:18 | |
| kgoetz | (then again, i dont have to suffer fedora) | 02:18 |
| flyback | heh I started 3with redhat 2.1 back in the day | 02:18 |
| * flyback beats kgoetz with his walker | 02:18 | |
| * kgoetz swats at flyback | 02:19 | |
| andguent | Silvano: when it is officially released and stable, do an apt-get update; apt-get upgrade (or other similar function from another favorite package manager) | 02:19 |
| flyback | not a good idea :) | 02:19 |
| flyback | a flyback is a type of high voltage pulse transformer | 02:19 |
| flyback | turns 100-200 volts into 35,000 | 02:19 |
| flyback | it's what energizes a picture tube | 02:19 |
| kgoetz | flyback: :) do want | 02:19 |
| * flyback bzzzzz kgoetz | 02:19 | |
| * kgoetz smokes | 02:20 | |
| kgoetz | (not literally, fwiw) | 02:20 |
| flyback | na it's about 0 current, you can't boost voltage magically for free :P | 02:20 |
| flyback | but it will still knock you on your ass | 02:20 |
| flyback | how the hell do I tell what kernel to use what I got dual p4 xeon blades | 02:22 |
| flyback | and why is there likes 10 packages | 02:22 |
| Silvano | i almost don't want to reinstall, got things together fairly nice and the way I want so far, minus my actual site up and running. But its on a 5 gig hd, and ive aquired a 40 gig for this box :S | 02:22 |
| flyback | so ghost it | 02:22 |
| kgoetz | flyback: not sure i follow your qustion | 02:22 |
| kgoetz | rsync ;) | 02:23 |
| rhineheart_m | I guess webmin is already been maintained | 02:23 |
| flyback | ok apprentely the installer being scripted by this pxe boot vm installed a kernel that can't do smp | 02:23 |
| flyback | so I had to force in the right one | 02:24 |
| Silvano | rhineheart_m: supposedly, it doesnt work well with ubuntu, i've got it up and running, and it seems fine. | 02:24 |
| flyback | and I just had a hell of a time knowing what was what I finally resorted to doing a clean install to a vm and making a script to apt-get those files | 02:24 |
| rhineheart_m | Silvano, yeah.. I agree with that.. if you just know how to handle config files.. then webmin is really a great stuff! I love its file manager.. it uses https and can be configured what port you will be using.. so I found it more secure this time than before | 02:25 |
| flyback | after I dpkg --get-selections |grep kernel to a file and again made it intoa script that removed all that | 02:25 |
| andguent | Silvano: there are multiple good drive clone utilities out there, sometimes a new disk in retail package actually has the software included, there are definitely ways around having to start over. -- A second option is learning how to grab the appropriate configs from the old drive and placing them on the new drive to see what you can "restore from backup" | 02:25 |
| flyback | nm | 02:26 |
| flyback | my brain is fried | 02:26 |
| kgoetz | does 'just install the smp kernel' help? | 02:26 |
| flyback | I think I just did like kernel-server and that worked | 02:27 |
| Silvano | thanks andguent, but although I don't want to, I think reinstalling will be good for me, as Im finally starting to understand some key commands and linux concepts :D | 02:27 |
| flyback | I think the virtual machine I used that takes a iso of several os's and scripts it for pxe installs did somethjing\ | 02:27 |
| andguent | Silvano: just keep that old drive intact, you can always mount it as a secondary drive and take a peek at your ftp daemon config file or whatever | 02:27 |
| flyback | they are headless blades | 02:28 |
| Silvano | great idea...didnt think about that! | 02:28 |
| flyback | it's just there was like 3 ways to get the same thing when I was looking at packages to install for the kernel | 02:28 |
| flyback | and no explanation | 02:28 |
| rhineheart_m | what does this warning mean (chkrookit output): Checking `lkm'... find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /proc: this may be a bug in your filesystem driver. Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option. Earlier results may have failed to include directories that should have been searched. | 02:38 |

| Silvano | what ftp server do you guys reccomend for a lamp server? | 05:28 |
| foo | I like proftpd | 05:31 |
| foo | Everyone will tell you something different, though :) | 05:31 |
| foo | your options: pureftpd, proftpd, vsftpd | 05:31 |
| Silvano | I've tried vsftpd, and wasn't too sure on configuring it (im a linux newb) so I think i will try proftpd as I was browsing through http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588 this tutorial when you mentioned it :D | 05:33 |
| calcmandan | hi guys. i'm about to pull an old box out of the closet and play with mail servers for our small business. anyone have a good recommendation? something where my brother can comfortably use his precious outlook. | 05:33 |
| calcmandan | the workstations around the shop are xp pro. he has a unix server used for diagnostics, and untouchable. | 05:34 |
| kgoetz | if all you want is mail any mailer will do | 05:34 |
| Silvano | thunderbird >outlook imo :D | 05:34 |
| kgoetz | * > outlook | 05:34 |
| Silvano | lol | 05:34 |
| calcmandan | kgoetz: yeah, he wants to use his calendar and shit. | 05:34 |
| calcmandan | Silvano: thunderbird > outlook. kontact > outlook... | 05:35 |
| kgoetz | calcmandan: so he wants more then a mail server | 05:35 |
| calcmandan | kgoetz: well, i'm looking at a server that is specifically for mail, and maybe a few other things. | 05:35 |
| foo | calcmandan: Outlook doesn't depend on which mail servers you want, you just need something with IMAP/POP. | 05:36 |
| foo | calcmandan: personally, I'd just setup google hosted for him and do something else with your time. | 05:36 |
| calcmandan | yeah, I'm aware of that. | 05:36 |
| kgoetz | foo: depends how you feel about your data | 05:36 |
| foo | (unless there is a good reason not to use it) | 05:36 |
| foo | kgoetz: right | 05:36 |
| kgoetz | calcmandan: its the 'other things' that are really casual and easy to throw in the sentence that make the difference | 05:36 |

| calcmandan | kgoetz: sorry bro. | 05:37 |
| Silvano | how do i access a local ubuntu box by hostname from a windows box? | 05:39 |
| foo | Silvano: you could hard code it in your hosts file on windows, or tell windows to use linux box as DNS server and have the hostname resolve to the linux box | 05:40 |
| Silvano | foo: theres no way to automatically broadcast it? | 05:41 |
| foo | Silvano: hm, not sure to be honest... let me know if you find a way | 05:43 |
| Silvano | will do. I honestly cant remember setting hostnames for my windows boxes in the router, but they are there. I assumed that they were broadcasted somehow, and was just wondering if it was possible with the linux box. itd make it much easier than typing the ip tons of times a day :D | 05:45 |
| foo | what are you typing it for? | 05:45 |
| Silvano | ssh http testing ftp testing etc. just trying to get it set up, configured and tested | 05:46 |
| kgoetz | Silvano: setup key based ssh :) | 05:47 |
| kgoetz | Silvano: avahi advertises hostnames, fwiw | 05:47 |
| kgoetz | avahi/mdns | 05:47 |
| Silvano | itd take 10 secs to set in the router, just trying to see if it was something simple I didnt know about | 05:47 |
| Silvano | kgoetz: avahi looks nice...will try it out in the morning. | 05:49 |
| kgoetz | Silvano: if your into that sort of thing its nice. cant say i like it | 05:49 |
| Silvano | off to bed, thanks for your advice and conversation, and see you guys tomorrow. | 05:49 |

| W8TAH | hi folks -- this my not be the right place to ask this question -- but im looking for a simple / easy to operate utility to quantify the speed of one of my network links here -- can someone suggest such a program | 15:09 |
| _ruben | W8TAH: you mean measuring your network usage? | 15:17 |
| _ruben | if so: iftop | 15:17 |
| W8TAH | hi _ruben no - -i mean in terms of what the line can transmit -- its a bit of a far run - i have 1gb switches at both ends - -but i need to know in general terms if the line is actually running 1gb or something less | 15:18 |
| W8TAH | im considering moving a number of our servers to the far end of the line and need to know if speeds are going to be badly impacted | 15:20 |
| _ruben | W8TAH: ah .. i ran into a nice tool for that quite some time ago .. cant recall its name tho :( | 15:28 |
| W8TAH | ok | 15:28 |
| _ruben | but as long as you stay within the specs you should be ok i'd say .. 100meters is the max for cat5/5e/6 afaik | 15:31 |
| W8TAH | ya - the run is about 230 feet -- | 15:35 |
| faulkes- | yes, 100m for cat5 is the bicsi spec | 15:36 |
| W8TAH | i just dont need issues -- and before i commit to a datacenter move i wanna be sure the line can handle it | 15:36 |
| _ruben | the only real test is a live test ... | 15:41 |
| W8TAH | ok | 15:59 |
| W8TAH | it was worth a try i guess | 15:59 |

| amen51 | hi, a commond line question: | 17:27 |
| amen51 | how to pipe a file to a command that usually accepts the file as an argument | 17:27 |
| amen51 | e.g. evince file1 | 17:28 |
| amen51 | we want to pipe file1 to evince | 17:28 |
| amen51 | anybody? | 17:29 |
| leonel | you need that the program can read from pipes . | 17:29 |
| amen51 | is there a command-line related channel? | 17:29 |
| leonel | in that case maybe evince can be controled by gnome / corba / dbus or something | 17:30 |
| amen51 | can you give a specific command line example | 17:30 |
| amen51 | e.g. cat file1 | evince does not seem to work | 17:30 |
| amen51 | thanks anyways | 17:32 |
| c0ldfusion | you know you can redirect standard input | 17:32 |
| c0ldfusion | to the program | 17:32 |
| c0ldfusion | not sure if that would help | 17:32 |
| amen51 | i guess something like evince do not read from standard input (not sure though) | 17:33 |
| c0ldfusion | try evince < file1 | 17:33 |
| c0ldfusion | yeh maybe not | 17:33 |
| c0ldfusion | I don't even know what that is ;) | 17:33 |
| amen51 | thanks again | 17:38 |

| Loosewheel | Hi everyone | 22:59 |
| silvanozzzz | hello | 22:59 |
| === silvanozzzz is now known as silvano | ||
| Loosewheel | silvano: do you know how to create a link in the index.html file? I'm trying to link a Open Office Presentation ? | 23:02 |
| * flyback stuffs his freshly washed circuit boards into a silver static bag and places the opening near a heater to dry aka "shake-n-bake" | 23:03 | |
| silvano | hmm, not sure. what extension is it? | 23:05 |
| Loosewheel | Well I put it together with oo, and the exported it as .html. I can link to www using oo writer, but can't figure out how to make a link to grab this file from the web page. | 23:08 |
| silvano | if its just an html document, you could try html to link it http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/html_link_code.cfm | 23:10 |
| Tatster | Hi all. I'm trying to recover from a disk failure from a raid 1 mirror. The outputs from my various LVM commands are at http://pastebin.ca/970152 - the issue is my logical volumes are showing as "Not available" and I can't work out why/how to fix! | 23:12 |
| Tatster | Can anyone suggest any ideas? | 23:12 |
| RPC | Hello, everyone. | 23:13 |
| Loosewheel | hi | 23:13 |
| RPC | Is there someone in here who would be willing to basically hold my hand through a linux install? | 23:14 |
| Loosewheel | silvano: Thanks, I'll chew on that for a while. | 23:16 |
| silvano | np, hope it helps | 23:16 |
| RPC | guess that's a no | 23:17 |
| silvano | RPC: its fairly simple if your installing ubuntu 8.04 desktop. I believe its a series of 7 steps, asking names, passwords, timezones, keyboard and region layouts etc. | 23:18 |
| RPC | Yea, until somethign gives an error... | 23:19 |
| Tatster | i think there may also be some good guides on www.howtoforge.com | 23:19 |
| silvano | your gettting an error during the install? | 23:19 |
| Tatster | If anyone can help with LVM issues I'd be really appreciative | 23:20 |
| RPC | no, im having a lot of things not work after install | 23:21 |
| Tatster | RPC: what things are not working after your install ? | 23:22 |
| RPC | wifi, vid card, that i've noticed | 23:22 |
| RPC | volume switch | 23:22 |
| Tatster | Which version of Ubuntu are you installing ? | 23:23 |
| RPC | ubuntu 7.1 | 23:23 |
| RPC | but i actually have been trying with Mandriva most recently | 23:23 |
| RPC | with the same issues | 23:23 |
| Tatster | the desktop or server version of 7.10 ? | 23:25 |
| RPC | desktop, i assume | 23:25 |
| Tatster | ok, I literally arrived in this channel a few minutes ago, and someone more regular please correct me if I'm wrong - this channel is aimed at Ubuntu server specific issues, desktop talk is normally discussed in #ubuntu | 23:28 |
| Loosewheel | Tatster: Sorry I can't help....but http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2006/04/27/managing-disk-space-with-lvm.html?page1, may help. | 23:32 |
| Tatster | Loosewheel: that looks like a good reference article. Doesn't cover my issues but good reading none the less | 23:37 |
| Loosewheel | Thought maybe the commands on page 2 might get you there. | 23:38 |
