| ScottK | \o/ - Just added clamav and spamassassin to the server-ship seed, so they are officially supported for Intrepid now ... | 04:11 |
|---|---|---|
| Kamping_Kaiser | \o/ | 04:11 |
| ScottK | So for Intrepid you should be able to build a pretty solid mail server completely out of Main. | 04:12 |
| frith | hi, i just backported ldap 2.4.11 from intrepid to hardy, i saw the config had been moved out of slapd.conf and into a cn=config directory | 07:00 |
| frith | it seems to have left a number of ldif files around, do i need to import these files? | 07:03 |
| NCommander | frith, did it need any work to be backported? | 07:19 |
| NCommander | frith, I don't mind making it an offical backport if you want | 07:19 |
| frith | so so | 07:19 |
| NCommander | If you have the patchs, we can see on getting it offically backported to Hardy | 07:20 |
| frith | i just back to backport libtool to compile it | 07:20 |
| NCommander | ewwwww | 07:21 |
| * NCommander twichs | 07:21 | |
| NCommander | We can't backport libtool sadlyt | 07:21 |
| frith | you don't need it to run it | 07:21 |
| NCommander | It's a complicated situation | 07:23 |
| NCommander | Generally speaking build system tools are unbackportable since its too great of a change | 07:23 |
| frith | indeed | 07:24 |
| NCommander | So the way we "backport" the fix is with a hammer | 07:24 |
| NCommander | A very big hammer | 07:24 |
| NCommander | And at some point, I got dubbed "libtool guru", and get pointed to when we have a libtool explosion in the archive | 07:24 |
| hads | Intrepid isn't that far away :) | 07:24 |
| frith | i think linux should go more the freebsd route | 07:25 |
| frith | i like having a stable base and then port apps to work | 07:25 |
| frith | then again you can never win | 07:26 |
| NCommander | frith, I'm looking forward to Debian kfreebsd-amd64 | 07:27 |
| NCommander | frith, that being said, libtool issues affect FreeBSD even worse than Linux since most libtool devs are linux based | 07:27 |
| NCommander | (libtool is a godawful hack that should have never been made to exist) | 07:27 |
| frith | i guess a lot of the problems come from creating a stable system and keeping people happy by having the latest version | 07:30 |
| frith | ldap is just a pain right now as i want to get n-way replication working | 07:33 |
| frith | and i have pressure to get subversion 1.5.1 deployed | 07:34 |
| NCommander | frith, well, svn 1.5.1 was backported | 07:35 |
| frith | i did it myself some time ago | 07:35 |
| frith | just need to get sometime to test it | 07:36 |
| frith | i hate deploying fairly untested revisions | 07:36 |
| NCommander | frith, well, the backport was done by ScottK | 07:40 |
| frith | its more a case of something weird happening to my code base | 07:41 |
| frith | i get paranoid | 07:42 |
| pcuser | anyone here? | 07:57 |
| NCommander | pcuser, for some defintions of here | 07:58 |
| pcuser | i need some help but i'm not sure what's the best channel for it | 07:58 |
| pcuser | i'm looking for some direction? | 07:59 |
| NCommander | pcuser, what do you need | 08:00 |
| pcuser | i have a presentation to give on Monday about why you should use wep at college. I wanted to demonstrate cracking WEP. I've done this before on Fedora Core 7 but for some reason i can;t get it to work on Ubuntu 8.04 | 08:02 |
| pcuser | what channel should i go to for help? | 08:03 |
| NCommander | #ubuntu | 08:03 |
| NCommander | pcuser, I hope you mean "use wpa" vs use wep | 08:04 |
| pcuser | wpa2 with radius authentication | 08:04 |
| pcuser | i have the project done but i can't seem to get my usb card working in ubuntu | 08:05 |
| pcuser | it's weird, i applied the patch and everything from aircrack-ng but i can't do packet injection for some reason | 08:05 |
| pcuser | i had this working before but on fedora | 08:05 |
| twb | http://www.ubuntu.com/news/zimbra-desktop | 08:08 |
| twb | What is the ETA for ZCS (Zimbra) turning up in the hardy/partners repo? | 08:09 |
| frith | hmm i can't drive my hosts file from my ldap server | 09:02 |
| twb | frith: you mean you want "getent hosts" to get information from LDAP? | 09:03 |
| frith | if i set my nsswitch to use ldap for hosts even getend passwd hangs | 09:03 |
| twb | frith: are you using an IP to refer to your LDAP server? | 09:05 |
| frith | nope, | 09:05 |
| twb | If you're referring to your LDAP server by hostname, then obviously it can't resolve that hostname because it needs to use the- OK, nevermind | 09:05 |
| frith | doh :) | 09:06 |
| frith | i was stupid and put ldap first | 09:06 |
| frith | don't suppose you know much about the 2.4.11 having its config in slapd.d and a number of .ldif files? | 09:16 |
| twb | Sorry, no. | 09:17 |
| frith | thanks | 09:19 |
| === freaky[t] is now known as fReAkY[t] | ||
| frith | happiness is a server called ldap | 10:06 |
| frith | right what else can i put onto ldap | 10:07 |
| twb | Everything that's in NIS atm | 10:08 |
| twb | >grin & duck< | 10:08 |
| frith | never used nis | 10:09 |
| frith | it looked awful, so i've avoided it | 10:10 |
| frith | i think i should setup n-way replication soon | 10:11 |
| frith | this new version with its weird config structure is a bit baffling | 10:12 |
| _ruben | does ldap do/support some sort of caching by default? i want to be able local copy of the ldap tree when the main server isnt avail for whatever reason | 10:12 |
| _ruben | s/able/able to query/ | 10:12 |
| frith | _ruben, you would use ccreds | 10:13 |
| frith | or setup a replica | 10:13 |
| _ruben | hmm .. ok | 10:14 |
| frith | there is a howto | 10:14 |
| frith | but i have problems with it | 10:14 |
| _ruben | integrating ldap in our network is somewhere downthere on my huge todolist | 10:14 |
| frith | i find that once i have it working, it saves me loads of time | 10:15 |
| frith | i think i should setup falcon next | 10:16 |
| frith | cool sudo-ldap | 10:17 |
| frith | wait why do i want that when i have ported all my groups to ldap | 10:19 |
| frith | i can just add myself into the ldap admin group | 10:19 |
| frith | duh i am thick | 10:19 |
| _ruben | hehe | 10:20 |
| frith | unless i could set sudo for each machine | 10:20 |
| frith | that would be cool | 10:20 |
| c_schmitz | can someone help me please? | 10:23 |
| c_schmitz | I have a remote server with a kernel panic | 10:24 |
| frith | who knows, ask | 10:24 |
| c_schmitz | and i have no clue what caused this and how to fix it | 10:24 |
| frith | you have remote management card in it? | 10:24 |
| c_schmitz | yeah | 10:24 |
| frith | reboot, look at the log files | 10:24 |
| c_schmitz | let me post a screen shot | 10:24 |
| frith | i would get it to do a memtest | 10:25 |
| frith | does it kernel panic often? custom kernel? | 10:25 |
| c_schmitz | http://imagebin.org/25856 | 10:25 |
| c_schmitz | its on boot | 10:25 |
| c_schmitz | cannot boot at all | 10:25 |
| c_schmitz | i doe not get to the login prompt | 10:26 |
| frith | can you run the memtest? | 10:26 |
| c_schmitz | how ? | 10:26 |
| frith | well you have memtest in grub by default | 10:26 |
| c_schmitz | its lilo | 10:26 |
| frith | oh well | 10:27 |
| frith | pxe boot? | 10:27 |
| c_schmitz | sorry.. what is 'pxe boot' ? | 10:27 |
| frith | network booting | 10:27 |
| c_schmitz | i can run that but i would not know where to boot from | 10:27 |
| c_schmitz | never did that | 10:27 |
| frith | you have another server and dhcp server ont he network? | 10:27 |
| c_schmitz | in fact I do | 10:28 |
| c_schmitz | at least another server | 10:28 |
| frith | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot | 10:28 |
| c_schmitz | i see there is a memory test installed at the network boot menu | 10:31 |
| c_schmitz | jsut running it | 10:31 |
| c_schmitz | I guess i updated to the latest kernel which cause this | 10:31 |
| c_schmitz | Is there a way i can boot the old kernel from lilo? | 10:32 |
| frith | c_schmitz, only if you left an entry in for it | 10:36 |
| twb | memtest is available from the d-i CDs (alternate, server), IIRC | 10:44 |
| frith | twb, he is remote, so he really needs to netboot since he has lilo'd his system for some odd reason | 10:45 |
| twb | frith: I was assuming he had a scratch monkey onsite | 11:07 |
| frith | i don't trust monkey's they constant turn off the wrong machine | 11:09 |
| frith | even if you set a message on the lcd | 11:09 |
| c_schmitz | i have a friend now wokring on it | 11:10 |
| c_schmitz | using a rescue system | 11:10 |
| c_schmitz | thanks for your help | 11:10 |
| c_schmitz | I am noticing how clueless I am | 11:10 |
| c_schmitz | :-/ | 11:10 |
| frith | we all have to learn | 11:14 |
| frith | loads of good people here | 11:15 |
| twb | frith: yeah, monkeys are unfortunate. I expected it to be less hassle than configuring netbooting if that wasn't already set up -- you need root on the DHCP server, a host on which to serve TFTP, etc. | 11:16 |
| twb | But hey, whatever. | 11:16 |
| frith | twb, true, but very handy to have for the future | 11:16 |
| c_schmitz | its a hetzner server | 11:16 |
| c_schmitz | so they have a rescue system set up | 11:16 |
| twb | frith: btw, IME if you put the /boot partition on a md RAID1'd, LVMd partition, then d-i will install Lilo instead of grub (because grub doesn't support that configuration). | 11:17 |
| c_schmitz | its not so much hassle to get into it | 11:17 |
| c_schmitz | but to know what to do next ;) | 11:17 |
| twb | c_schmitz: hetzner? | 11:17 |
| frith | twb, i just run grub twice | 11:17 |
| c_schmitz | yeah.. its one of the more known root server providers in Germany | 11:17 |
| twb | c_schmitz: oh, a hosting company. | 11:18 |
| c_schmitz | yes | 11:18 |
| frith | i wish i could afford to get some fibre into my garage | 11:18 |
| frith | garageisp.net here i come | 11:19 |
| twb | hcoop.net? | 11:19 |
| twb | My personal preference would be a VM on something approaching big iron. | 11:20 |
| twb | That way you have monkeys in the NOC to look after the physical hardware, and everything Just Works because VM hardware is simple and relatively uniform. | 11:20 |
| twb | And if the iron goes down, there are thousands of irate customers instead of just one -- so the monkeys actually have an incentive to fix it. | 11:21 |
| frith | eggs? basket? | 11:23 |
| twb | frith: hmm? | 11:30 |
| frith | i get paranoid about using vm for anything other than testing | 11:31 |
| twb | WFM, shrug. | 11:31 |

| byte_slave | hello everyone! | 18:40 |
| sommer | hi | 18:41 |
| byte_slave | i'm stucked here, suddenly withou doing nothing, ubuntu 8.04 changed to "ubuntu intrepid (development branch)" | 18:42 |
| byte_slave | and it doesn't accept the logins i used before | 18:42 |
| byte_slave | how can i undo this? | 18:43 |
| sommer | uhhh... reinstall? | 18:44 |
| byte_slave | that was what i didn't want to do :( | 18:44 |
| sommer | if you just need to login, boot to rescue mode and create a use, putting the user in the adm group | 18:45 |
| sommer | that should let you login and at least copy any data to another machine | 18:45 |
| sommer | for me intrepid has been quite stable... | 18:45 |
| byte_slave | thats what i'm gonna do. | 18:46 |
| byte_slave | thanks sommer. | 18:46 |
| sommer | np | 18:46 |
| byte_slave | one more thing! is pacific just install all from scratch and then attach the 3 hdds i've now full of backups? will i access it then without any problem? | 18:48 |
| byte_slave | probably i've to make some "chown -R" | 18:49 |
| sommer | if you've lost your old user's then, ya there will probably need to be some chown work | 18:49 |
| byte_slave | ;) thats the minor problem | 18:50 |
| sommer | so the machine is just a backup server? | 18:51 |
| byte_slave | yes | 18:52 |
| byte_slave | only that | 18:52 |
| byte_slave | just need to reconfigure samba and rsync and it should work | 18:52 |
| sommer | gotcha, if the data partions are seperate from the rest you can probably re-install without losing the data | 18:53 |
| byte_slave | let me try reinstall first, then | 18:54 |
| sommer | you'll just want to be careful during the partiion phase, and not reformat the wrong one :-) | 18:54 |
| byte_slave | sure :) | 18:54 |
| byte_slave | i guess for safety, ill turn off the other disks and the after all i connect them and i add it to fstab | 18:55 |
| sommer | I'd think that'd work fine... but if it's only a backup server why not just run intrepid for the next month until release? | 18:56 |
| byte_slave | do you thinks the final upgrade to the offical final release then will be peacfull? | 18:57 |
| byte_slave | i never did any upgrade from previous to current versions ( at least voluntarily ) | 18:57 |
| sommer | heh, I'd think so, but there's no 100% garuntee | 18:58 |
| byte_slave | we'll see. i guess i'll follow your instructions. thanks | 18:58 |
| sommer | welcome | 18:58 |
| byte_slave | at least i guess i can save my saturday night doing you way :) and i can go out drink some beers ;) | 18:59 |
| byte_slave | BTW, the idea of create a new login at boot time can be done with 8.04 cd? | 19:00 |
| sommer | heh, I definitely prefer beers over work :) | 19:00 |
| sommer | if you have physical access to the machine grub will show you a recovery option in the list, that'll boot you to single user mode where you can use normal adduser, addgrp, etc | 19:01 |
| sommer | much faster than booting from cd | 19:01 |
| byte_slave | great! i don't even have a cdrom at the machine | 19:02 |

| gladk | hi all | 20:28 |
| gladk | can anybody help with VPN server? | 20:28 |
| ivoks | maybe | 20:29 |
| gladk | I have installed it on Ubuntu 8.04 server, trying to connect it from Windows XP, connection establishes, but no ping..... nothing | 20:29 |
| ivoks | VPN isn't the name of the program | 20:29 |
| ivoks | that's a common name for couple of implementations | 20:30 |
| ivoks | so, which vpn server are we talking about? | 20:30 |
| ivoks | openvpn, pptpd...? | 20:30 |
| gladk | pptpd | 20:30 |
| gladk | and i cant ping connected client from server | 20:30 |
| ivoks | ok, that one basicly works with almost no configuration | 20:31 |
| gladk | yea, I just chenged ip-s | 20:31 |
| ivoks | you added localip and remoteip in pptpd.conf? | 20:32 |
| gladk | yes | 20:33 |
| ivoks | from some other ip range? | 20:33 |
| ivoks | or from the same as server? | 20:34 |
| gladk | from same server | 20:36 |
| ivoks | so, your server has an IP 192.168.0.1 | 20:37 |
| gladk | 192.168.0.17 | 20:37 |
| ivoks | and you've set up 192.168.0.x as a remoteip | 20:37 |
| gladk | 192.168.177.X | 20:37 |
| ivoks | ok, and localip is...? | 20:38 |
| gladk | 192.168.177.234 | 20:38 |
| ivoks | so you can't ping 192.168.177.234 from connected client? | 20:38 |
| gladk | yes | 20:39 |
| gladk | no... | 20:39 |
| gladk | I can ping client from client | 20:39 |
| gladk | myself | 20:39 |
| gladk | I cant ping client-server and server-client | 20:39 |
| ivoks | firewall on server? | 20:41 |
| gladk | iptables | 20:41 |
| gladk | port 1723 opened | 20:42 |
| ivoks | ping doesn't have anything with TCP or UDP ports | 20:43 |
| ivoks | ping is ICMP | 20:43 |
| gladk | it is allowed also | 20:43 |
| ivoks | i don't know then... try dumping traffic | 20:45 |
| ivoks | does other connections work? | 20:45 |
| gladk | how can i dump traffic? | 20:46 |
| ivoks | tcpdump | 20:47 |
| ivoks | sorry, can't help you more... i'm tired | 20:48 |
| gladk | ivoks: thank you anyway | 20:48 |
