mrhanky | ok guys i need some help | 04:11 |
mrhanky | uhm.. i have a server ubuntu server | 04:11 |
mrhanky | and i have a backup server with ubuntu server | 04:11 |
mrhanky | it backs up my main server every morn at 6am | 04:11 |
mrhanky | now, i want to save on energy | 04:12 |
mrhanky | so can i make my backup server hibernate, then make my main server tell it to wake up? | 04:12 |
mrhanky | is that possible? | 04:12 |
mrhanky | id really like to know :) | 04:12 |
iRRV1 | WOL? | 04:12 |
mrhanky | WOL? uhm not sure what that is | 04:12 |
iRRV1 | i dont know much about WOL (Wake On Lan) but sounds like what you would want | 04:13 |
mrhanky | oohhh | 04:13 |
mrhanky | yeah that is | 04:13 |
mrhanky | do you know of a tutorial or something? | 04:13 |
mrhanky | :) | 04:13 |
iRRV1 | i think it differs bios-to-bios | 04:13 |
iRRV1 | but i have never done it and know next to nothing about it | 04:14 |
Kamping_Kaiser | you need something that can send custom icmp packets to the powered off system | 04:14 |
Kamping_Kaiser | and a bios that supports wol. | 04:14 |
mrhanky | i can do that | 04:14 |
mrhanky | let me see if my bois does... i have 3 backup server candidates so im sure one of them does! :) | 04:15 |
mrhanky | thanks guys! :D | 04:15 |
iRRV1 | np | 04:15 |
Kamping_Kaiser | gl | 04:16 |
iRRV1 | im still deciding what kind of a game i should host on my server (originally was gunna be a MUD...then i wanted to do some sort of something that would actually get users...) ...any suggestions? | 04:25 |
Kamping_Kaiser | dont knock mud players ;P | 04:26 |
iRRV1 | im not | 04:26 |
iRRV1 | just saying theres too many good muds out there and im coming in too late in the game to get any users | 04:26 |
Kamping_Kaiser | guess the amount of bandwidht you have to your server affects what you want to runon it | 04:27 |
iRRV1 | 300 Mb/month iirc | 04:27 |
iRRV1 | errr.... | 04:28 |
iRRV1 | that sounded pretty low...good thing its 300 Gb/month | 04:28 |
Kamping_Kaiser | ;) | 04:29 |
iRRV1 | but its a cheap vps so its likie 256 MB ram and 10 gigs hdd and such | 04:29 |
iRRV1 | and i mean if i could get any builders to help me with my MUD i would stay at it...but i've been working at this for about a week or 2 and only got a fraction of a city | 04:32 |
iRRV1 | well...probably a week | 04:32 |
iRRV1 | (and i'll shutup if this is too offtopic, btw) | 04:33 |
iRRV1 | but if anyone has any suggestions for what to run on my server, they would be much appreciated (and yes, it is a ubuntu server :D) | 04:35 |
Kamping_Kaiser | shouldnt you get an idea before a server ? :P | 04:36 |
iRRV1 | i had one | 04:36 |
iRRV1 | then i after i got the server, i had a realization | 04:37 |
iRRV1 | so im running a MUD server and a crossfire server on there currently...but im prolly gunna take em both down if i can get a half decent idea for a server | 04:38 |

AtomicSpark | is there anyway to easily search for and delete a file in a bunch of folders without manually deleting each one? | 18:54 |
nxvl | find? | 18:54 |
AtomicSpark | nvm. i figured out i can search the mounted folder. :P | 18:54 |
AtomicSpark | that was quick. | 18:55 |
nxvl | bash scripting is always cool | 18:55 |
AtomicSpark | i'm getting rid of all the thumbs.db. silly windows files. | 18:55 |
AtomicSpark | have you worked with samba at all? | 18:56 |
nxvl | yep | 18:58 |
AtomicSpark | i have this weird inconsistency with my samba share. right now i'm just sharing a users home as one main collection of files. i can manually type in the address. smb://server/username | 19:00 |
AtomicSpark | but when i try to find it via the network option in ubuntu it just has two shares on it. homes and print$ | 19:00 |
AtomicSpark | homes doesnt mount. i'm thinking it might either be configured wrong or its trying to use the user name i'm logged into on the local machine | 19:01 |
AtomicSpark | hmm. now my workgroup is empty. smb protocol is very random. even on windows. | 19:09 |
sommer_ | ScottK: just an fyi, I got a notice from LP saying I'm about to expire from the clamav team :( | 20:01 |
thenewguy | how secure is Ubuntu server? if i put a stock Ubuntu box on the web with LAMP how safe am i? i will have it behind a Hardware firewall | 21:09 |
ivoks | you'll have only http port open to the public | 21:10 |
ivoks | fwiw, php is patched with suhosin patch from http://www.hardened-php.net/ | 21:10 |
Nafallo | if the P is PHP, you are as secure as your applications ;-) | 21:14 |
ivoks | right | 21:14 |
ivoks | and you can apply that rule to any other language | 21:14 |
Nafallo | yepp. but there is only one language I mistrust on principle ;-) | 21:15 |
Nafallo | anyway. lets not get into that discussion :-) | 21:15 |
ivoks | Nafallo: i agree with you, but when you think of it... most of the problems are really aplication based | 21:15 |
Nafallo | yepp :-) | 21:16 |
ivoks | php is, kind of, proof of concept, but, to be honest, it isn't much worse than other languages | 21:16 |
Nafallo | its widely popular, so of course it gets more CANs | 21:17 |
ivoks | right... | 21:17 |
ivoks | meh... long night in front of me... | 21:17 |
ivoks | i'll convert dbmail into dovecot... | 21:18 |
Nafallo | :-) | 21:18 |
ivoks | it would be great to have mod_security in apache, by default | 21:22 |
ivoks | too bad mod_security is still gpl2 | 21:22 |
ivoks | o! o! changes! | 21:24 |
ivoks | http://blog.modsecurity.org/2008/06/modsecurity-lic.html | 21:24 |
AtomicSpark | ivoks, yay? | 21:28 |
ivoks | AtomicSpark: yay? :) | 21:28 |
AtomicSpark | ivoks, yes. | 21:29 |
nxvl | ivoks: woooho! | 21:32 |
ScottK | sommer_: You should be able to renew yourself. Let me know if you can't. | 21:57 |
sommer_ | ScottK: cool, thanks | 21:58 |
nxvl | ScottK: hi! | 21:58 |
ScottK | Hello nxvl. | 21:58 |
nxvl | ScottK: how are you! | 21:58 |
ScottK | Good, but busy. | 21:58 |
nxvl | ScottK: everything is going fine | 21:58 |
nxvl | yeah, same here | 21:58 |
ScottK | (which explains why I haven't signed your GPG key among other things) | 21:58 |
nxvl | this days are really busy | 21:58 |
nxvl | :D | 21:58 |
nxvl | well i was going to ask you something, but, don't mind | 21:59 |
nxvl | :P | 21:59 |
ScottK | If it's a quick question, go ahead. | 21:59 |
ScottK | nxvl: ^^ | 21:59 |
nxvl | well | 21:59 |
ScottK | Is anyone here actually running dovecot for sasl with Postfix? | 21:59 |
nxvl | it's a not short time demanding thing | 22:00 |
ScottK | Not even the asking? | 22:00 |
nxvl | so nevermind | 22:00 |
nxvl | :D | 22:00 |
nxvl | well | 22:00 |
nxvl | i was going to ask you to review augeas | 22:00 |
nxvl | :P | 22:00 |
ScottK | Ah. | 22:00 |
ScottK | Probably not today. | 22:00 |
nxvl | and it's not a simple package | 22:00 |
nxvl | is a multiple binary + library one | 22:01 |
ScottK | My suggestion would be ask sistpoty to do it. He's really good on library packaging. | 22:01 |
nxvl | but doesn't mind, if you find some time i will be really grateful if you took a look, even a quick one :D | 22:01 |
nxvl | ScottK: thanks! i will | 22:02 |
* ScottK adds it TODO. | 22:02 | |
ScottK | sommer_: Are you using Postfix with Dovecot for SASL? | 22:03 |
nxvl | sommer_: can you please test augeas i need some sysadmins opinions on it | 22:04 |
nxvl | sommer_: it has some test cases on the web page, and a test environment | 22:04 |
nxvl | sommer_: so if you have time, please test it and send me some feedback | 22:04 |
