dav010I am installing all of ubuntu-server onto a 10GB drive, and then doing a software RAID1 mirror two 1 TB drives that I will keep data on. I am currently installing the OS, and I set the TB drives to be "physical volume for RAID" I then went to "configure software RAID", "Create MD Drive" and then it asked me how many active drives and then inactive drives for the RAID? WHat do I set. (I set 2...01:33
dav010...and 0). Additionally, after I did that, it told me I had to select two drives, except only gave me the option of selecting one of my TB drives. Did I do this correctly?01:33
dav010It looks like I should of set one inactive, and one active. The installer won't let me delete my RAID thats screwed it. It says "it might be in use." Any suggestions on what to do?01:38
dav010anyone?01:40
dav010anyreason that the RAID can't be deleted? Should I restart the install?01:42
dav010screw it, I'm restarting the install01:51
sly2guyi have set up an ftp server using proftpd, everything seems to work correctly locally, but I can't seem to access it using a global/remote reference, what might the problem be?03:48
nealmcbsly2guy: firewall?04:12
jordsEr.... something weird is going on. The mysql on my new ubuntu server install will accept a login with any username and no password, but not give any priviliges. More a problem, though, is that the only user you can actually login as and get priviliges is root - all the other users only login with no password even though i've set one for them, and don't get priviliges to do anything04:32
Kludge^WalesUKhai04:36
jordshey04:36
Kludge^WalesUKaha :) Wondering if i could get some seemingly basic assistance? :)04:37
Kludge^WalesUKi'm due to have a "ubuntu server" seedbox soon, i've been virtualizing the distro as best i can over win64 vista and VMWare. Just wondering if anyone can help out on any technicalities for remote administration and/or torrent client help?04:38
jordsI run a ubuntu  server seedbox also...04:38
Kludge^WalesUKi've managed to nail installation of X+Wine+Fluxbox+webui+(hopefully) VNC... But i'm aiming for a native client04:38
jordsI just use transmission-daemon, and then transmission-remote over ssh....04:39
Kludge^WalesUKrTorrent and a webui... all my efforts so far (in over 14hrs) have failed (i've re-used the same ubuntu server image)04:39
Kludge^WalesUKhmm. not heard of that combo... a webui is nice, but not necessary. I could if need be VNC/FreeNX (another failure on my part) in04:40
jordsYou don't really need a gui, but if you want one I find torrentflux-b4rt works well just by itself if your not too worried about system resource usage (bitcomet is a pig)04:40
Kludge^WalesUKi think bitcomet is still banned on many sites for its `behaviour`... I've tried torrentflux-b4rt and wasn't impressed =/ Although it "just works"... I'd still probably prefer WINE+X+WebUI+VNC04:41
=== hessml is now known as hessml|away
jordsWhat client are you using with WINE? I'm a utorrent fan myself, but I find transmission is almost as good, and runs on linux natively04:42
Kludge^WalesUKwould be using uTorrent 1.7.x as i've read that 1.8 beta still has a few problems.. i'm very used to uTorrent as I run it on my server at home. transmission i've not looked into AT ALL to be fair... Just want something functional that has a lot of control..... rTorrent does, but ugh... i find its intuition quite "WTFH IS THIS?"04:44
Kludge^WalesUKand not managed once to get a webui working at all =(04:44
Kludge^WalesUKyou still lurking, jords? :)04:49
jordsyes :D04:49
Kludge^WalesUKaha! just installed transmission... looks very simple... it can't find "transmission-remote" and it doesnt appear in the repos i have04:49
jordsI donno how complicated your requirements are, but have a look at transmission-daemon and clutch, which is a very nice webui for it. some tricks to get it to run though04:49
jordsthe transmission packages in ubuntu are old, I just compiled the latest version  myself....04:50
Kludge^WalesUKi don't have transmission-remote here04:50
Kludge^WalesUKgah! *hides* wanna teach a n00b how to compile?04:51
jordsit's a reasonably new feature. I'll try - ok first step is to remove the old transmission04:51
jordsit's quite easy really, as long as you don't have dependancy problems04:51
Kludge^WalesUKok, do you want to see how exactly i've bodged a wine+X+utorrent install?04:51
Kludge^WalesUKi can just reuse a base vmware image so no need to uninstall :)04:52
jordsheh nice04:52
Kludge^WalesUKit's a well worn image i assure you ;)04:52
Kludge^WalesUKok here's the list of crap i go through (all manually written thanks to VMWare :( )04:53

Kludge^WalesUKokie *hides some more*04:54
Kludge^WalesUKhow does that `look`? n00bish? LOL04:54
jordsok... do you want to give transmission a try? good to lean how to do a basic build of a program too04:55
Kludge^WalesUKyeah, just decompressing the 7z archive i have now :)04:55
Kludge^WalesUKok she's booting04:56
Kludge^WalesUKok, booted, i'm at the terminal. just logged in as kludge (non root)04:56
jordsok, make a new directory, call it "transmission-build" or something04:57
Kludge^WalesUKin ~ /04:57
jordsyeah, that's your home directory04:57
Kludge^WalesUKok done04:57
jords~ means /home/<your username>04:57
Kludge^WalesUKok, i'm in that dir now04:57
jordswget http://download.m0k.org/transmission/files/transmission-1.22.tar.bz204:58
jordstar -xjvf transmission-1.22.tar.bz2 to extract it04:58
Kludge^WalesUKok, done04:59
Kludge^WalesUKchanged directory to in there as well04:59
jordsok... ./configure05:01
jordsand hope theres no errors05:01
Kludge^WalesUKno acceptable C compiler in path05:02
jordsooh, forgot that. apt-get install build-essential :D05:02
Kludge^WalesUK;) thanks... quite a few other things missing in the debug too... one sec05:02
ScottKTransmission is packaged for Intrepid.05:03
jordsScottK: it's packeged, but the version in the repos is very old05:03
ScottKIt's probably much easier to grab the Intrepid source package and build a .deb locally for your system.05:03
ScottK1.22 is in Intrepid.05:03
Kludge^WalesUKthis could take a while i'm on dialup :(05:03
ScottKhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/transmission/1.22-1ubuntu105:04
Kludge^WalesUK;) just kidding... configure went fine this time05:04
jordscool... now type make05:04
Kludge^WalesUKno makefile found05:04
ScottKGenerally you'll be happier in the long run using the packaging system even for local stuff.05:04
Kludge^WalesUKaye. well i don't wanna step on toes :)05:05
jordsScottK: well I can't claim to know enough about apt to do that...05:05
ScottKEasy enough.05:05
ScottKMake a new directory to work in.05:05
Kludge^WalesUKwho am i following now? :X05:06
ScottKYour call.05:06
Kludge^WalesUKmake seems to be failing for some reason05:06
jordsKludge: follow him, he knows much more apt than i do :D05:06
Kludge^WalesUKyou cool with that, jords?05:06
ScottKsudo apt-get install devscripts build-essential05:06
Kludge^WalesUKdone05:07
ScottKdget -x https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/transmission/1.22-1ubuntu1/+files/transmission_1.22-1ubuntu1.dsc05:07
Kludge^WalesUKgah, copy and paste doesnt work over vmware ;( one sec, this'll take a moment05:07
ScottKOr you can change the deb-src line for main in /etc/at/sources.list to intrepid, apt-get update, apt-get source transmission05:08
Kludge^WalesUKunable to establish SSH connection05:08
Kludge^WalesUKSSL*05:08
ScottKOK.  Change /etc/apt/sources.list05:08
Kludge^WalesUKone sec05:08
Kludge^WalesUKwhat am i adding at the end?05:09
ScottKChange hardy to intrepid on the deb-src line (make sure it's deb-src)05:09
jordsI'm just using ---insecure ... is that any worse?05:09
Kludge^WalesUKi have multiple deb-src variables05:10
ScottKThe first one that has main in it.05:11
ScottKMine would be:05:11
ScottKdeb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid main restricted05:11
Kludge^WalesUKthe deb-src http://bleg/ubuntu/ hardy-updates main restricted ?05:11
Kludge^WalesUKgotcha05:12
ScottKWhere bleg/ubuntu/ is the path to your local mirror, yes.05:12
ScottKThen sudo apt-get update05:12
ScottKthen sudo apt-get source transmission05:12
Kludge^WalesUKfark i didnt sudo edit it... one moment05:13
Kludge^WalesUKok, done05:14
Kludge^WalesUK( fetched 1185KB )05:14
ScottKSo you have the source?05:14
Kludge^WalesUKyeah, i believe so05:15
ScottKls in that dir and see if it's there05:15
Kludge^WalesUKyeah, im in that dir still05:15
ScottKThen try sudo apt-get build-dep transmission05:15
Kludge^WalesUKgetting an error, want me to type?05:16
ScottKIs it the libcurl-dev one?05:16
Kludge^WalesUKno idea =\05:17
ScottKDoes it mumble about a virtual package?05:17
ScottKTrying to save you some typing ...05:17
Kludge^WalesUKgetting an "E: build-depends dependancy for transmission cannot be satisfied because no available versions of package debhelped can satisfy cersion requirements"05:17
Kludge^WalesUKexcuse typo's its 5:14am and i'm reading from a VMWare terminal ;)05:18
ScottKThat's painful.05:18
ScottKLet me look at the package05:18
ScottKIdiots05:18
Kludge^WalesUK:D05:19
ScottKThe set the version dependency to debhelper 7, but looking at it, I'm almost certain it doesn't need it.05:19
ScottKThe/They05:19
ScottKcd into the package dir05:19
Kludge^WalesUKstill in thre05:19
ScottKthen cd into the debian dir.05:19
Kludge^WalesUKnot one, only daemon05:20
ScottKHmmm.05:20
ScottKAfter you got the source, there should have been a dir called transmission-1.22 there05:20
jordsthere is a debian directory for me05:20
ScottKdebian is in that one.05:21
Kludge^WalesUKwget -x https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/transmission/1.22-1ubuntu1/+files/transmission_1.22-1ubuntu1.dsc <- that one?05:21
ScottKThat one failed for you, right?05:21
jordsoh.... dget05:21
jordsnot wget?05:21
Kludge^WalesUKif you meant to write Dget it wasn't installed, i assumed you meant wget05:21
ScottKWe did apt-get source transmission instead.05:21
ScottKNo, I meant dget05:22
ScottKDid you install devscripts?05:22
Kludge^WalesUKdget not installed then05:22
ScottKIt's in that pakcage05:22
Kludge^WalesUKyeah. maybe not at the right time... one sec05:22
ScottKjords: dget uses wget, but it knows about debian package structure so can grab the whole package.05:23
Kludge^WalesUKok, made dir transmission-build sudo apt-get install build-essentails devscripts05:23
Kludge^WalesUKchanged first line to read intrepid FROM hardly, and to main restricted05:23
ScottKThen apt-get update05:24
ScottKapt-get source transmission05:24
ScottKThat should get you transmission-1.22 just sitting there ready to go.05:24
Kludge^WalesUKyeah, does now... i rm'd what was in there to make sure05:25
ScottKcd into transmission-1.22 and then cd into debian05:25
Kludge^WalesUKnow dget ?05:25
Kludge^WalesUKaha, deb is there now!05:25
ScottKNo.  We used apt-get source instead.05:25
Kludge^WalesUKok in debian05:25
ScottKThere's a file called control.05:25
Kludge^WalesUKyup05:26
ScottKOpen it in the editor of your choice05:26
Kludge^WalesUKdone05:26
ScottKSee the line called Build-Depends:05:26
ScottKIt's actually two lines.05:26
Kludge^WalesUKyeah i see it... debhelper (>= 7)05:26
ScottKChange the 7 to a 6 (we are cheating now, but I'm almost certain it's OK).05:27
Kludge^WalesUKdone05:27
ScottKNext is to install those packages.05:27
Kludge^WalesUKok, so parent dir?05:28
ScottKDoesn't matter05:28
ScottKWhen you install binary packages, the current dir doesn't matter.05:28
Kludge^WalesUKaha, okie... how'd i install? :)05:28
ScottKIf you apt-get source, the source gets shoved in the current dir so it matters.05:28
Kludge^WalesUKthankyou so much for your patience :)05:28
ScottKsudo apt-get install .... the list of packages.05:28
Kludge^WalesUKuhm. Did you just miss a step? I just changed "debhelp (>=7 to 605:29
ScottKRight.  Save and exit.05:29
Kludge^WalesUKyup;05:30
ScottKThen sudo apt-get install debhelper autotools-dev libgtk2.0-dev libevent-dev libglib2.0-dev05:30
ScottKThen sudo apt-get install libssl-dev chrpath python intltool05:30
Kludge^WalesUKah the joys of a fast connection, almost done the first bit05:31
Kludge^WalesUKok with ya05:32
ScottKYour on Hardy, right?05:32
Kludge^WalesUKyeah 8.0x LTS05:33
ScottKThen sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev05:33
Kludge^WalesUKdone05:33
ScottKThen you've got all the stuff to build the package installed05:33
Kludge^WalesUKawesome ;o05:33
ScottKNow you want to be in the transmission-1.22 dir05:33
ScottKcd .. from debian if you're still there05:33
Kludge^WalesUKyep, im there now05:34
ScottKAlso sudo apt-get install fakeroot05:34
ScottKI always forget that one05:34
Kludge^WalesUKdone05:34
Kludge^WalesUKone sec, need a pee05:34
ScottKThen debuild -us -uc (the options just mean you aren't going to sign the pakcage)05:34
ScottKDo this next one first.05:35
ScottKIt'll take a while.05:35
Kludge^WalesUKok BACK05:37
Kludge^WalesUKnext one first still?05:37
ScottKdebuild -us -uc05:38
Kludge^WalesUKfakeroot debian/rules clean failed05:39
ScottKShoot05:39
Kludge^WalesUKpermission denied... sudo ?05:39
ScottKNo05:39
ScottKlet me look05:39
Kludge^WalesUKsays it cannot remove `third-party/libeven/test/regress.gen.c` premission denied05:40
Kludge^WalesUKgugh the typos... *looks at a waiting pint of coffee* <305:40
Kludge^WalesUKdebuild fatal error at line 124705:41
ScottKOK.05:41
* ScottK is trying it.05:41
Kludge^WalesUKhow may i ask is a n00b supposed to just `know` this? :S05:41
ScottKUsually it's easier.05:42
ScottKUsually it's apt-get source, apt-get build-dep ..., debuild and you're done.05:43
Kludge^WalesUKusually because n00bs install the whole desktop environment?05:43
Kludge^WalesUKwhich has all the dev stuff already?05:43
ScottKNo, because transmission can be a PITA.05:44
ScottKMostly n00bs stick with the version in the archve.05:44
Kludge^WalesUKfair enough LOL... i'm keeping a .txt file on the process, so if/when it works 100% ok, i'll try from the first step05:44
Kludge^WalesUKas would i :X05:44
ScottKIt looks like debian rules is actually using one debhelper 7 feature.05:45
Kludge^WalesUKouch =/ no cheating for ScottK & kludge05:46
Kludge^WalesUKif you need me to start again from scratch up to a certain point i can do that :) no worries05:48
ScottKThe odd bit is it failed for me to, but in a different place.05:48
Kludge^WalesUKhmm. you want a transcript (of sorts) of what i've done?05:49
ScottKI think I got it.05:49
Kludge^WalesUKhttp://pastebin.ca/107203605:50
ScottKThere's a file in debian dir called compat05:50
Kludge^WalesUKthats my `transcript`05:50
ScottKIt'll contain the number 7.05:50
ScottKChange the 7 to 6 and try the debuild again05:50
Kludge^WalesUKnopers ;(05:51
Kludge^WalesUKline 1247 still05:51
ScottKOK.  It's working for me.05:51
Kludge^WalesUKstill cannot remove that file05:52
ScottKLet's back up a bit.05:52
ScottKLet's rm -rf your transmission-1.22 dir (just the dir, not the other files in the parent directory.05:53
ScottKThe do dpkg-source -x transmission_1.22-1ubuntu1.dsc05:53
Kludge^WalesUKuh permission denied -_-05:53
ScottKAh.05:53
ScottKDid you do sudo apt-get source transmission?05:54
Kludge^WalesUKit appears so :(05:54
ScottKWhat does ls -l transmission-1.22 tell you?05:54
ScottKNo problem.  We can fix this.05:54
Kludge^WalesUKyup, root owns it05:54
ScottKsudo chown -r username:username transmission-1.22 where username is your username05:55
ScottK-R sorry05:55
Kludge^WalesUKok kludge owns it now \o/05:55
ScottKcd back into transmission-1.2205:56
ScottKThen debuild -us -uc05:56
* Kludge^WalesUK stabbeth05:56
Kludge^WalesUK1247 again05:56
Kludge^WalesUKdpkg-source -b transmission-1.22 failed05:57
Kludge^WalesUKalso can't create some files05:57
ScottKOK.  Let's back up.05:57
Kludge^WalesUKshall i follow my transcript from scratch?05:57
ScottKcd out of your transmission-1.22 dir and rm -rf it05:57
ScottKThen do dpkg-source -x transmission_1.22ubuntu1.dsc05:58
Kludge^WalesUKugh, got weirdass file differences now05:59
Kludge^WalesUKok can you check this transcript? if it looks good i'll start over06:00
Kludge^WalesUKhttp://pastebin.ca/107204206:00
ScottKhttp://pastebin.ca/107204406:02
Kludge^WalesUKright... i'm gonna nuke the work done so far, and follow that spot on... won't be long (Y)06:02
Kludge^WalesUKthanks for your patience, you're a GOD amongst men06:03
ScottKThere's more.06:03
ScottKI'm now ahead of you and finding some other stuff.06:03
Kludge^WalesUKokie. well i'll follow that until you update the link, i'll inform you of any erroring :)06:03
ScottKK.06:04
ScottKUpdated http://pastebin.ca/107205006:05
ScottKKludge^WalesUK: Did you see the extra steps I added.06:06
Kludge^WalesUKhmm. i have a much older version now (1.06)06:06
ScottKThen we didn't get the sources.list done right.06:07
ScottKGo back to the dget approach.06:07
ScottKThat worked for you.06:07
Kludge^WalesUKa bit of a mix-up on the `transcript`, my bad06:07
Kludge^WalesUKi have it sorted now, will rm un-needed files06:07
ScottKhttp://pastebin.ca/107205206:08
ScottKOK.06:08
Kludge^WalesUKalmost with you ScottK :)06:11
ScottKI've run into another problem I haven't sorted yet.06:11
Kludge^WalesUKright, well i'm about to load that URL... everythings worked spot on so far! NO errors \o/ just need to re-write it a little bit06:12
Kludge^WalesUKok finding dh_prep atm06:14
Kludge^WalesUKok found it under install: build (few lines down) dh_prep >> dh_clean -k ?06:16
ScottKYes06:16
ScottKOne more rules change will be needed.06:16
Kludge^WalesUKokie! i'm upto speed, no errors so far ;o06:16
ScottKGo on down in debian/rules06:19
ScottKFind the line dh_install -a (not -i)06:19
ScottKadd --sourcedir=debian/tmp to it06:20
Kludge^WalesUKwhere do I hadd the --sourcedir?06:20
ScottKDid you find dh_install -a?06:21
ScottKYou want:06:21
Kludge^WalesUKyup, CTRL+W ;)06:21

Kludge^WalesUKso now -a at all?06:22
ScottKnxvl: Actually we want the -a06:22
ScottKSorry.06:22
ScottKdh_install -a --sourcedir=debian/rmp06:22
Kludge^WalesUKk done06:22
ScottKSave that06:22
ScottKthen cd ..06:22
ScottKso you are in the transmission-1.22 dir06:23
ScottKThen debuild -us -uc06:23
ScottKI just did it and it worked here.06:23
nxvlScottK: i come in on the middle of the discussion, just write what i understand about it06:23
nxvl:D06:23
ScottKNo problem.06:23
Kludge^WalesUKsweet, just going to update my transcript thingo, its lagging a little06:23
Kludge^WalesUKdependancies not met DOH!06:25
ScottKWhat does it complain about06:25
ScottKIt'll tell you what's missed06:25
Kludge^WalesUKtypo my end i'm thinking line 99306:26
Kludge^WalesUKsays i don't have all build dependencies met06:26
Kludge^WalesUKits wanting `pbuilder` package06:26
Kludge^WalesUKwill check line 993 somehow06:26
ScottKPastbin the error06:26
Kludge^WalesUKi can't :( bloody VMWare06:27
ScottKAh06:27
Kludge^WalesUKhmm, the "rules" file has just disappeared... OR i'm going blind06:28
ScottKThen sudo apt-get install pbuilder , but I find that a little suprising.06:28
Kludge^WalesUK50/50% of either really06:28
Kludge^WalesUKnope still screwing up ;(06:28
Kludge^WalesUKdh_install -a --sourcedir=debian/tmp06:29
Kludge^WalesUKrmp jesus06:29
Kludge^WalesUKone sec, this end (ofcourse)06:29
nxvlScottK: for sync request on universe after IF do i need 2 ACKs or with one is enought?06:30
Kludge^WalesUKok whatever --sourcedir=?? it doesn't exist if that helps?06:30
ScottKnxvl: One is fine.06:31
nxvlok, so i just need to wait06:31

Kludge^WalesUKok altered the sources.list and done a apt-get update06:38
ScottKPresumably you'll want to say yes.06:38
ScottKIt's still building.06:38
ScottKWhat architecture are you running?06:38
Kludge^WalesUKatm under VMWare i386 ubuntu server, most likely the same flavour as the seedbox to be06:38

Kludge^WalesUKthe way things are going, i'm still heading toward WINE+X+fluxbox+utorrent with webui LOL07:20

Kludge^WalesUKwhat'd you recommend? >_>07:21
Kludge^WalesUKi'm quite impressed by Deluge, its easy to install, navigate, use, and the webui just works out-of-the-box... unlike everything else07:22
Chipzzdunnow - have been fucking around a bit with some code for an rtorrent webfrontend of my own, but hit that bug07:23
Chipzzthere's also this python-based torrent webinterface07:23
Kludge^WalesUKouch ;-/ Might mess about some more tomorrow. See what kTorrent can come up with07:23
Kludge^WalesUKoh?07:24
Chipzztorrentflux07:24
ChipzzI do not recommend it07:24
Kludge^WalesUKyeah, tried it, hated it =/ although it CAN use the transmission backend07:24
Chipzzeats lots of CPU07:24
Kludge^WalesUKAJAX is probably its biggest fault i guess07:24

Kludge^WalesUKLOL! thats the only ways its `acceptable` :innocent:07:25
jordsalso, install pastebinit07:25
Chipzzno, torrentflux's biggest fault is doing torrents in python :P07:26

Brazenok, so I didn't want to go off on a stupid tangent in the meeting, but would it be possible to keep sslv2 in OpenSSL but just disable it by default?17:01
culpritczthans17:02
culpritczthnx17:02
ivoksBrazen: disable as a compile time option?17:02
ivokspoint of my job is to keep sslv2 in openssl, but disable it on services like apache, postfix, etc...17:03
Brazenwell, I'm thinking keep it compiled in, but have like a config file or something that can either enable or disable it17:03
ivoksi don't thnik that's possible; enable ssl2 for whole sistem trough config file17:03
* delcoyote hi17:04
Brazenyeah, ivoks, I get that, but like someone said, compiling it out of Openssl would make SURE it was gone.  I'm thinking the package could keep it compiled in, but disabled.  That way people with legacy clients could enable it if needed17:04
Brazenkeep in mind, I'm not a developer, so I just thought I would toss that idea out there17:05
ivoksit's impossible, cause openssl is a library17:05
Brazenwell, that's kinda what I figured17:05
ivoksone can't just disable part of the library17:05
ivokswell do exactly the same thing per package17:06

FragtioNHey guys, anyone know of a bug where traceroutes will report higher (clearly false) latencies than ping, using the same packet size? Im on ubuntu server 8.10 using 2.6.26 @ 1000Hz (i switched to this thinking it might help - default kernel gave the symptom originally)19:49
FragtioNif i ping the remote host from windows, i get a pretty stable 2-5ms ping. same thing if i ping it from the ubuntu server; but if I do a traceroute, it will report it as like 35ms ? - every time...19:50
FragtioNalso tried uninstalling traceroute deb and compiling the latest version - 2.0.11 and that gives the same problem19:51
FragtioNrunning x86_64 on an AMD64 3400+19:51
taconehello. is there any ubuntu room targetting webdevelopers ? (about how to make ubuntu more suitable for them and push them to adopt ubuntu as their developing platform ?)20:14
lukehasnonamenot that I know of20:44
lukehasnonametacone: ping20:44
lukehasnonameubuntuforums.org might be useful20:44
FragtioNseem to have found the problem for anyone who ever gets a similar problem - seems like it was async routing (box was routing through a routerboard with some b0rked routes)21:03
taconelukehasnoname: ok. I was looking for a "team" or something like that.21:10
lukehasnonameask #ubuntu-devel if you must, they aren't web-focused, they're Ubuntu focused.21:14
lukehasnonameas in, they actually develop Ubuntu, not just devs who use it.21:14
taconelukehasnoname: ok, there's not yet a team to take care of this kind of thing. I'll search for a team I launchpad or maybe open my own then.21:16
taconeI have no problem, just looking for alikes. thanks for now, good evening :-)21:17
veNom_bztacone what do you use for web-development? perhaps you could look for a language specific team.21:18
taconeI am a php professional. btw I am the main developer of rapache project (apache easy  configuration tool).21:19
taconeI was just looking for people to share best practices or ideas with.21:19
veNom_bzperhaps an apache or php channel then or try web developers group on ubuntu server http://ubuntuforums.org/group.php?groupid=2 feel free to discuss ubuntu server specific intricacies here21:27
taconevery nice21:29
nealmcbFragtioN: very odd.  my offhand guess would be that they are using different kinds of pings somehow (like icmp vs udp or the like), or that the successive ttl values cause the routers to do something odd21:58
nealmcbahh - I see your update now21:58
AtomicSparkso i've been messing with samba for 2 days now. trying to get two shares working under two differnt user names (office and manager). turns out, the xp pro machine doesnt want to, for some reason, conenct to the server with two shares of different user names. i'm not sure if this is a problem with windows itself or with the samba server. any ideas?22:01
AtomicSparki might have to add the manager user to the office group, so they can access it via their username too.22:02
veNom_bzthis is not an ubuntu server probelm. to address your question though windows will not allow it. it is not a samba problem. samba can however be configured to accept only one connection per username at a time though.22:05
AtomicSparkveNom_bz: thanks. figured it was a windows limitation. i suppose ill set it up properly. ;)22:33
d0m1n0ezthis may be a dumb question, but I am looking for documentation for apache on their website.  I installed apache2, but I not sure as to what version of apache the install is (ex: 2.0, or 2.2) is there a way to find out?22:48
hadsSure. `dpkg -l | grep apache` will tell you the pacage version installed.22:50

ubottuUbuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).23:34
veNom_bzsamba is not linux networks. install what you need. nfs is my recommendation to you however. do some reading http://nfs.sourceforge.net/.23:35
