| Sp0tter | Why does a guided LVM put all the available space in the / partition? You can't shrink that while its up, so then whats the pointin the LVM? | 01:10 |
| Sp0tter | nijaba: how do i keep my fully auto install from never ending? install, reboot, install, reboot ? | 02:22 |
| twb | How can I find the section (i.e. main, restricted, universe or multiverse) for each installed package? | 02:23 |
| twb | (I've been asked for the licensing details for all software on my server.) | 02:24 |
| hads | Someone gave me a one-liner for that ages ago let me see if I can find it. | 02:25 |
| twb | On Debian I'd just check the Section: for a slash (e.g. admin/non-free), but that doesn't seem to work on Ubuntu. | 02:26 |
| hads | comm -12 <(apt-cache dumpavail | grep-dctrl -nsPackage -FSection universe/ |sort) <(dpkg --get-selections | awk '$2 == "install" { print $1 }'|sort) | 02:27 |
| hads | Ugly huh | 02:27 |
| twb | grep-status probably would be shorter | 02:28 |
| ScottK | sommer: I don't know if guilt will work or not, but saying pretty please hasn't gotten anything except from you. | 02:31 |
| twb | hads: I'm not convinced its working | 02:36 |
| hads | OK | 02:36 |
| twb | For example, I'm pretty sure mg is in universe | 02:37 |
| twb | Yeah, it is | 02:37 |
| twb | hads: this is a shorter version of your original one-liner, but it still has the same problem: grep-status -nsPackage,Section -FStatus "install ok installed" | paste -sd " \n" | sort | grep universe/ | 02:38 |
| twb | This has better success: aptitude search ~i~s^universe/ | 02:40 |
| hads | That's nicer | 02:44 |

| twb | Anybody got pam ldap auth working correctly (against slapd, running on the same Ubuntu 8.04 host)? | 05:03 |
| twb | I had kerberos working, then I was told to switch it over to ldap (because there are no shiny GUIs for krb). Now I broke both of `em, and I'm about to blindly follow a zimbra weenie's auth-client-config setup and see if it magically works. | 05:04 |
| twb | Last time I looked at this box (some weeks ago), we determined that slapd had the appropriate values in its database (PosixUserAccount, IIRC) but for some reason pam_ldap can't see them. | 05:05 |
| HefferMooMo | Does anyone know why postfix hangs in telnet? | 06:11 |
| ScottK | It doesn't here. | 06:18 |
| HefferMooMo | ScottK: That's odd. It says "Escape character is '^]'. then lets me type in and everything, but nothing works | 06:19 |
| ScottK | Do you get a line after that that starts with 220? | 06:20 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: ^^ | 06:21 |
| HefferMooMo | nope, that's what i got earlier. it then stopped working | 06:21 |
| HefferMooMo | ScottK: i then got despirate enough to reformat | 06:21 |
| ScottK | Then your postfix is dieing and you need to be looking in the logs. | 06:22 |
| HefferMooMo | i looked in syslog, and it didn't say anything | 06:22 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: OK. What's your current situation? | 06:22 |
| HefferMooMo | current situation is that i havn't a clue why it hangs like that, and i don't know of any specific log that could help =( | 06:22 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: As a general rule in Linux and other Unix like operating systems you'll have more luck trying to understand the problem and fix it than nuking it from space everytime it misbehaves. | 06:23 |
| hads | :) | 06:23 |
| ScottK | Are you logged into the server now? | 06:23 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: ^^ | 06:23 |
| HefferMooMo | yea, but not on this computer. Normally i woudln't nuke it, but i just switched the server over from a windows | 06:23 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: It's past 1AM here, I'm tired, and I'm not paid to do this, so please pay attention. | 06:24 |
| HefferMooMo | I am paying attention. I just type slowly sometimes | 06:24 |
| ScottK | ssh into the server and do tail -f /var/log/mail.log | 06:24 |
| ScottK | OK | 06:24 |
| ScottK | HefferMooMo: Once you've done that, telnet to the server again and see what the logs say. | 06:25 |

| ScottK | That's where you should put your results | 06:25 |
| HefferMooMo | thanks, it's not much, it seems to be something about some /etc/aliases.db | 06:26 |
| ScottK | Please pastebin what is says | 06:27 |
| ScottK | All of it. | 06:27 |
| hads | Being out of date? If so, you need to update it | 06:27 |
| ScottK | I'm guessing, but I'd rather read the whole log entry before I get excited. That shouldn't make Postfix crash. | 06:27 |
| hads | Yeah sorry, just interrupting :) | 06:28 |
| ScottK | You wanna take over so I can go to bed? | 06:28 |
| HefferMooMo | ssh doesn't work (i apparently don't have it setup on my server) | 06:28 |

| hads | HefferMooMo: So can you pastebin the log? | 06:30 |
| HefferMooMo | yea, had to go to pastebin on the server first (i have xubuntu desktop installed) | 06:30 |
| HefferMooMo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/31588/ | 06:31 |
| hads | OK, run `sudo postalias /etc/aliases` | 06:32 |
| hads | /etc/aliases is a text format file which is 'compiled' into a binary file for postfix to access. | 06:33 |
| hads | You need to run that command any time you update the text file. | 06:33 |
| HefferMooMo | ah | 06:33 |
| HefferMooMo | thanks, that seemed to work | 06:33 |
| hads | Postfix is pretty good at telling you what is wrong so usually if you look in the logs you'll get the idea. | 06:34 |
| lamont | hads: or you can be a traditionalist and 'sudo newaliases' | 06:34 |
| HefferMooMo | fresh install worked the first time, then it acted up like this, i gotta keep a note of this. Thanks | 06:34 |
| hads | lamont: I was going to... but I chose that for consistancy with the other postfix mapping files :) | 06:34 |
| HefferMooMo | the newaliases, lots of googling had me look at that, but isn't that automatically run at install? | 06:35 |
| lamont | ISTR that I only run it if I created /etc/aliases, or added to it | 06:35 |
| lamont | about to face plant into the keyboard though, so I'm not going to go look | 06:35 |
| hads | :) | 06:36 |
| HefferMooMo | i'm still new to ubuntu some what so it's not real surprise that i didn't know which log file it modified | 06:36 |
| HefferMooMo | i thank you all for your help | 06:36 |

| toastmaker | Hello! I plan to run a cluster using Ubuntu 8.04 server edition and I would like ask if there is a support for Infiniband communication and Fibre Channel connection to disk array in Ubuntu or if it is more probably to expect some problems...

| lukehasnoname | Bnydell: You have a package manager already running, I believe | 19:14 |
| lukehasnoname | or you didn't "sudo" that command | 19:14 |
| lukehasnoname | you need to run installs with sudo | 19:15 |
| Bnydell | i tried sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 19:15 |
| Bnydell | Do i need to have the installation cd in? | 19:15 |
| lukehasnoname | as I said, make sure you aren't already running an install, apt-get, or aptitude | 19:17 |
| Bnydell | Let me restart the machine. See if it will work | 19:18 |
| maw_ | Bnydell: if your package manager crashed sometimes the lock file can remain | 19:19 |

| Bnydell | uh. not currently I would need to disconnect the ethernet from this laptop to do it | 19:27 |
| Bnydell | should i run the command after connecting in the cable? | 19:27 |
| maw_ | well, I think by default it tries to use online repositories | 19:28 |
| maw_ | unless you modified apt to use local media | 19:28 |
| maw_ | so just to confirm, you want to install xfce desktop? | 19:28 |
| Bnydell | i have not modified anything. I just installed ubuntu server 20 minutes ago | 19:28 |

| maw_ | ok, and you want xfce? | 19:29 |
| Bnydell | deeps said to type in apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 19:29 |
| maw_ | I see, well that probably won't work on a server install | 19:30 |
| Bnydell | If posible. I do not know the difference between that and other GUI's if there is any at all | 19:30 |

| maw_ | http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/xfce4 | 19:31 |
| jonesy | finally found virtualbox and can install the ubuntu server edition :-D | 19:31 |
| maw_ | you probably want to do "sudo apt-get install xfce4" | 19:31 |
| maw_ | xfce is a desktop environment like gnome and KDE | 19:31 |
| maw_ | it is more lightweight | 19:31 |
| Bnydell | so it can insatll on this server, am i correct? | 19:31 |
| maw_ | and might be better suited for a server install | 19:31 |
| Bnydell | ok | 19:31 |
| Bnydell | so i should connect the internet cable and then type in the command sudo apt-get install xfce4 | 19:32 |
| Deeps | there are very few GUI tools to configure server services btw | 19:32 |
| maw_ | well seeing how the first link I sent you says "This package depends on all of the packages in the Xubuntu desktop system" and you have SERVER... I dont think it will work | 19:32 |
| Deeps | it's not like windows, where everything is configured through a gui | 19:32 |
| maw_ | desktop != server | 19:33 |
| maw_ | and ya, what Deeps said... | 19:33 |
| Bnydell | yea | 19:33 |
| maw_ | and I agree with Deeps that server install is better to manage from shell | 19:33 |
| Bnydell | I do not have any knowledge at all of command line. and the only reason we are using ubuntu is it is free not like the other servers. We wanted a gui for it so that we can do things easyer. we are really only using this server as a file server and maybe printer serveer | 19:36 |
| maw_ | just use windows then | 19:37 |
| maw_ | unless your office is all *nix machines | 19:37 |
| jonesy | guis are harder. | 19:38 |
| maw_ | or use "openfiler" if all you need is a filesystem | 19:38 |
| maw_ | err file server | 19:38 |
| jonesy | you'd not spend any more time learning the gui if you're not familiar with the gui. | 19:38 |
| jonesy | or... any *less* tiem. | 19:38 |
| jonesy | err. time. | 19:38 |
| maw_ | http://www.openfiler.com/ | 19:38 |
| maw_ | ^ free and is a NAS/SAN | 19:38 |
| uvirtbot | maw_: Error: "free" is not a valid command. | 19:38 |
| maw_ | lol? | 19:39 |
| Bnydell | lol | 19:39 |
| maw_ | anyways.. use openfiler | 19:39 |
| Bnydell | any free programs... | 19:39 |
| maw_ | otherwise you are going to have to setup everything manually on ubuntu to work with your windows environment | 19:39 |
| Bnydell | or can i just use something that is already on the ubuntu server | 19:39 |
| maw_ | and since it sounds like you have limited *nix experience, you might be best with a windows file sevrer | 19:40 |
| maw_ | Bnydell: what would you use? | 19:40 |
| maw_ | do you know of something? | 19:40 |
| maw_ | do you think SMB is ready to sync with your active directory? | 19:40 |
| Bnydell | we did not want to pay for a windows file server | 19:40 |
| maw_ | a W2K3 license is 500-1000$... or just use MSDN license | 19:41 |
| maw_ | before you totally cheap out you should consider how much time you will need to spend implementing and maintaining your solution | 19:41 |
| Bnydell | well thanks for your guys help | 19:41 |
| maw_ | good luck | 19:42 |
| maw_ | try openfiler if you dont want to spend any money | 19:42 |
| maw_ | and you want a out of box solution | 19:42 |
| maw_ | WITH gui | 19:42 |
| Bnydell | ok i will look into that | 19:42 |
| maw_ | or go buy yourself a "linux system administration" book and start doing it all off ubuntu :) | 19:43 |
| Deeps | heh | 19:43 |
| maw_ | you should learn sometime | 19:43 |
| Bnydell | 'holy shit just had a huge earthquake | 19:43 |
| Deeps | become an MS partner and get the action pack starter kit | 19:43 |
| Deeps | 300 euros | 19:43 |
| Bnydell | excuse my french | 19:43 |

| Bnydell | yea. but i would rather not be in one :) | 19:56 |
| lukehasnoname | then again that would kill hundreds of thousands | 19:57 |
| Bnydell | yea | 19:57 |
| Bnydell | well thanks guys again for your help | 19:58 |
| Bnydell | I will be sure to pop back in if i need further help on my quest to getting this server fully working | 19:58 |
| Bnydell | have a good day. | 19:58 |

| kirkland | mathiaz: hey, do you have any iscsi-initiator experience? | 20:35 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: or do you? | 20:35 |
| dendrobates | kirkland: my knowledge ends at the definition. :) | 20:36 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: ;-) okay, well, i'm running an iscsi target in one kvm, and I'm running an iscsi initiator on a second... i can get the second to detect the first... but I'm trying to figure out the "next step" | 20:37 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: should it show up as a block device, or what..... | 20:37 |
| dendrobates | kirkland: that is my understanding. I'd shoot soren an email. | 20:38 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: k | 20:39 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: it should show up as a standard block device | 20:39 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: that you can format, etc... | 20:40 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: /dev/.... what? | 20:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: hm - I don't know exactly - look in dmesg | 20:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: there may be some clue there | 20:40 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: evand is sitting next to me, will give me a d-i architecture tour later today | 20:40 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: i looked, nothing yet | 20:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: it may be an issue with udev then | 20:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: may be the udev rule is not setup correctly | 20:41 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: also, looks like an MIR may be needed for open-iscsi | 20:41 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: hm - open-iscsi is already in main | 20:42 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: right, nevermind | 20:43 |
| dendrobates | kirkland: another thing to about, is a way to allow a user to enter a landscape key in d-i, that would be unobtrusive to those that don't care. | 20:44 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: okay | 20:44 |
| kirkland | dendrobates: i'm reading about debconf now | 20:44 |

| nhandler | Could someone give me a hand? I'm trying to add a status function to the init script in openvpn, but I'm having some issues | 20:48 |
| zul | Koon: ^^^ | 20:53 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: what are your issues ? | 20:54 |
| nhandler | mathiaz: I was trying to look at some of the other patches that have been prepared to add a status function. However, for openvpn, it looks like it has multiple pid files (/var/run/openvpn.*.pid). This is making it difficult for me to figure out how to add the status_of_proc call. | 20:55 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: IIRC kirkland said there was a loop somewhere in the init script | 20:56 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: you'd probably need to do something similar and check that every vpn is running | 20:56 |
| kirkland | nhandler: you might try something like .... | 20:58 |
| kirkland | for i in `ls /var/run/openvpn.*.pid`; do | 20:58 |
| kirkland | status_of_proc -p $i $DAEMON openvpn($pid) || status=$? | 20:59 |
| kirkland | done | 20:59 |
| kirkland | pulling the pid into $pid | 20:59 |
| nhandler | Ok, the part that I was running into issues before were because I was trying to figure out how to have the exit 0 || exit $? part in the loop. I didn't think to use a variable | 20:59 |
| kirkland | yeah, don't exit in the loop | 21:00 |
| nhandler | :) | 21:00 |
| kirkland | start off status=0 | 21:00 |
| kirkland | set status=$? if any is not running | 21:00 |
| kirkland | and exit $status | 21:00 |
| kirkland | it'll be 0 if they're all running | 21:00 |
| kirkland | non-zero if any one is not | 21:00 |
| kirkland | it ain't perfect, but it's the best we've got atm | 21:01 |
| mathiaz | right - another option would be to print out which vpns are not running | 21:01 |
| nhandler | Ok, so it doesn't need to show the status of each individual one? Because using this method, you won't be able to tell the difference between one not running and 5 not running | 21:01 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: status_of_proc() will do that too | 21:02 |
| mathiaz | it may require more code to track which are up and which one are down | 21:02 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: ah right - with the DESC | 21:02 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: i was suggesting identifying each by its pid | 21:03 |
| kirkland | output would look like | 21:03 |
| kirkland | * openvpn(2113) is running.... | 21:03 |
| kirkland | * openvpn(23938) is not running.... | 21:03 |
| kirkland | * openvpn(3223) is running... | 21:03 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: isn't the name of the vpn in the pid file ? | 21:03 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: yup, awk/sed that out | 21:03 |
| kirkland | in the for loop I suggested up there | 21:03 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: that would be more useful IMO | 21:04 |
| kirkland | and pass to status_of_proc as the last argument | 21:04 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: instead of a simple "openvpn" as the description, pass "openvpn\($pid\)" | 21:04 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: oh, you mean the ***name*** of the vpn? | 21:05 |
| mathiaz | I'd rather see something like this: | 21:05 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: okay, that works too | 21:05 |
| mathiaz | * openvpn(office1) is running... | 21:06 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: sorry, i have no experience with openvpn, no idea what it looks like | 21:06 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: yeah, that sounds brilliant | 21:06 |
| mathiaz | IIRC the init script is set so that the name of the vpn is in the pid filename | 21:06 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: you'd have to check this out | 21:07 |
| nhandler | mathiaz: I'll do some tests and see what I can do. | 21:07 |
| kirkland | nhandler: the important hints are: | 21:07 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: but if you could come up with a patch that results in giving an output similar to the one I mentionned above, it would be perfect | 21:07 |
| kirkland | nhandler: a) loop over all the pids | 21:07 |
| mathiaz | nhandler: * openvpn(office1) is running... | 21:08 |
| kirkland | nhandler: b) identify each vpn uniquely by name or pid | 21:08 |
| kirkland | nhandler: c) don't exit inside the loop, but after the loop is done | 21:08 |
| nhandler | Strangely, when I run openvpn, it does not create a pid file in /var/run. As a result, the status function will fail to run because the ls command won't find any files | 21:48 |
