| warchief_ryan | Does anyone know how I can have my iptables rules added at boot? | 02:30 |
| Ontolog | Are there command-line utilities that do the same thing as the Network Configuration GUI? | 02:34 |
| Ontolog | In particular, define and apply different Profiles? | 02:34 |
| warchief_ryan | ifconfig, depending on what your wanting to do I think. | 02:36 |
| Ontolog | ifconfig is very low level | 02:40 |
| Ontolog | i'm talking about the higher-level 'Profiles' that the GUI supports | 02:41 |
| ScottK | warchief_ryan: If you configure ufw, it will run at boot. | 02:41 |
| warchief_ryan | I have, but I want to use just iptables | 02:41 |
| kgoetz | does hardy still have /etc/rc.local? if so you could put a iptables-restore in there | 03:22 |
| warchief_ryan | why would I do that? | 03:24 |
| warchief_ryan | I want my rules added, wont that just restore to default? | 03:25 |
| kgoetz | not if you restore from a dump you made. | 03:26 |
| warchief_ryan | ok, how? | 03:28 |
| kgoetz | iptables-save and iptables-restore are both <40 line man pages. its not very complex. | 03:30 |
| warchief_ryan | complex maybe not, but the man pages don't really explain throughly enough, mainly about the process | 03:34 |
| warchief_ryan | like if its dumping it to somewhere or if ive got to state where to dump | 03:35 |
| kgoetz | afaik its as hard as iptables-save > /root/dump && echo "iptables-restore < /root/dump " > /etc/rc.local # again, assuming that rc.local exists andd is used | 03:36 |
| warchief_ryan | k thanks, ill try | 03:39 |

| khaotik | anyone have time to help a complete noob? | 04:18 |
| lrojas | hi all | 04:20 |
| J_5 | khaotik: we were all noob's at once, just ask you question :) | 04:20 |
| khaotik | well i would like to attempt to set up one of my machines to run ubuntu server. I have never dealt with any server OS before. ive been using ubuntu desktop for over 1 year. | 04:22 |
| lrojas | i tried installing ubuntu JeOS server on VMWare fusion, but i am not sure if i am suposed to use it only to prepare an appliance or can i use to develop my web app in it... ( care to clarify that? ) but my main question is... Do man comes with JeOS? cause when i try to man something i get command not found | 04:22 |
| khaotik | i have an old laptop i would like to use. is there any limitations or specifications of hardware i should use or stay away from? | 04:23 |
| lrojas | did i get disconected? | 04:25 |
| lrojas | :/ | 04:27 |
| ScottK | No. | 04:27 |
| lrojas | ok | 04:27 |
| lrojas | :) | 04:27 |
| ScottK | For a test server most any hardware will do. | 04:28 |
| ScottK | Actually for most server applications hardware is less critical than desktop since you aren't running X and a bunch of heavy apps. | 04:28 |
| lrojas | are you answering me? i am asuming you are answering khaotik | 04:30 |
| hads | lrojas: sudo aptitude install man | 04:32 |
| khaotik | my bad i had to take the dog for a walk | 04:33 |
| lrojas | hads, thanks | 04:33 |
| hads | JeOS is exactly the same, just a minimal install | 04:34 |
| lrojas | does anybody knows if i intend to run the ubuntu server under a VM, installing from the JeOS iso is better than from the regular server ISO? | 04:34 |
| khaotik | the reason i ask i have an old HP laptop that has 512 MB RAM 40 GB hardrive and pentium 4 1600 Mhz. would that be something sufficient to run on? | 04:35 |
| jhigueros | good night may be you can helpme somebody knows where is magicfab i am loking for him | 04:36 |
| lrojas | hads, thanks again didnt realize that you had answered me before i asked my question | 04:39 |
| khaotik | well i tried installing ubuntu server on it. everything seem to load fine. then when i tried to install a GUI for it it crashed | 04:44 |
| hads | lrojas: No problem | 04:49 |
| lrojas | anybody can give me a sugestion, regarding runing ubuntu server on a Virtual Machine ( VMWare ), should i install it as JeOS Server? or is that only used to make appliances and for more general purposes the standard server is ok? | 05:16 |
| hads | As I mentioned it's the same thing, JeOS is just a minimal install. | 05:17 |

| soren | Well, it skips any sort of name/service resolution | 14:28 |
| soren | \sh: What happens? | 14:28 |
| \sh | soren: well, it should boot...but it doesn't :) | 14:29 |
| \sh | no errors during installation (server) | 14:29 |
| lrojas | sudo netstat -ap | grep www returns nothing | 14:29 |
| soren | lrojas: What about "sudo netstat -apn | grep lighttpd" ? | 14:30 |
| lrojas | nothing either | 14:30 |
| soren | ps aux | grep light | 14:30 |
| soren | \sh: I hope you're typing more info and not just waiting for an answer.. | 14:31 |
| lrojas | it only returns the grep itself | 14:31 |
| skep | lrojas: you could also check out the logs in /var/logs for something lighthttpd related..maybe in messages or the lighthttp logs itself (if there are any) | 14:32 |
| \sh | soren: I'm running between my desktop and my server ;) | 14:33 |
| \sh | strange..after installation the server doesn't boot up as expected...now I "reinstalled" grub from the "rescue system"...and now he finds the devices correctly, but totally wrong from grubs menu.lst now (which was during installation (hd1) and now it's (hd0))..no cold boot done | 14:34 |
| soren | Just change the boot entry in grub? | 14:34 |
| lrojas | how do i cd into /var/log/lighttpd ? i get permission denied, if i do sudo cd /var... i get cd commnad not found | 14:38 |
| \sh | soren: i did...but something goes wrong during installation via d-i and the final system...I'll have another machine with the same setup tomorrow...so I can check a bit more | 14:39 |
| \sh | soren: btw...do you have any clue how udev setups the devicenames for NICs? It looks a bit strange when the onboard and the other 4Gi NICs are somehow randomly counted... | 14:40 |
| soren | \sh: It's random. | 14:42 |
| soren | Upon discovering the pci devices, the modules are loaded. The modules's initialisation phases might overlap, and then you get a somewhat odd ordering of the interfaces. | 14:44 |
| soren | You can fix it up in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 14:44 |
| soren | You can even assign arbitrary names to nics in there. (i.e. you can name them according to function "wan", "dmz", "office", "prod", "test", etc.) | 14:45 |
| \sh | soren: yes..I know, I just thought that it happens via a non-random system e.g. pci-id dependent | 14:47 |

| mathiaz | Goosemoose: have you looked into using the late_command option ? | 20:06 |
| Goosemoose | yeah i just cant seem to get likewise to work right | 20:06 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: AFAIR the likewise-open package doesn't support preseeding the domain part | 20:07 |
| Goosemoose | that would be bad, i dont want to manually go join 250 machines to the domain | 20:07 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: IIRC you can pass the administrator password on the domain-join command line | 20:07 |
| Goosemoose | hmm | 20:07 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: so you can use the late_command option to perform the domain-join and adding likewise-open to the list of packages to be installed | 20:08 |
| Goosemoose | ok ill have to figure out the domain-join part, i must have something wrong with it | 20:08 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: be aware that the preseed will go uncrypted on the network | 20:08 |
| Goosemoose | i used MD5 for the admin user on the machine, I'm guessing domain-join doesn't support that? | 20:09 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: another solution is to setup ssh public keys on installs and then ssh into the box to do the domain-join | 20:09 |
| Goosemoose | i'd rather avoid that if i can | 20:10 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: right - it seems the first you'd have to take is to figure the domain-join command line | 20:11 |
| Goosemoose | ok | 20:11 |
| Goosemoose | im going to look on the forums some more | 20:11 |
| mathiaz | Goosemoose: once you've got the command line, you can choose where you want to automate it : late_command in preseed (less secure depending on your installation environment) or via ssh | 20:12 |
| Goosemoose | ok | 20:12 |
| Goosemoose | hmm, i just installed likewise-open on a machine via sudo apt-get install likewise-open, but the domain-join command does not exist | 20:25 |
| Goosemoose | is there another dependency? | 20:25 |
| Goosemoose | nvm its domainjoin-cli | 20:25 |

| sommer | ufw has some new options? | 20:27 |
| jdstrand | sommer: I just have a few really small things | 20:27 |
| jdstrand | sommer: 1) ufw has 'status' and 'status verbose' | 20:27 |
| sommer | jdstrand: ah, I'll note that | 20:28 |
| jdstrand | sommer: 2) until case-insensitive profile names are in place, when referencing applications profiles, we should use a capitalized first letter | 20:28 |
| jdstrand | sommer: eg 'Samba' or 'Apache' | 20:28 |
| sommer | okay, are the --update-new options the same?... I thought there were some changes, at least from the one email thread | 20:29 |
| jdstrand | sommer: let's get back to that in just a sec | 20:30 |
| sommer | heh, no problem | 20:30 |
| jdstrand | sommer: you say: "Similar to allowing traffic to a port, enabling an application profile is accomplished by entering" | 20:31 |
| zul | mathiaz: do you have an opinnon on bug #267701 | 20:32 |
| uvirtbot` | Launchpad bug 267701 in php5 "php5 session files purge cron job not working outside /var/lib/php5" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/267701 | 20:32 |
| jdstrand | sommer: but there really isn't a concept of 'enabling an application profile" | 20:32 |
| jdstrand | sommer: it's really, just using it, like you might use a protocol name in /etc/services | 20:32 |
| jdstrand | sommer: you use 'enabled' in a few places in there, so the workding may need to change somewhat | 20:33 |
| jdstrand | sommer: does that make sense? | 20:33 |
| sommer | jdstrand: I think so | 20:33 |
| jdstrand | sommer: ok good-- eg "To view details about which ports, protocols, etc are enabled for an application, enter:" | 20:33 |
| mathiaz | zul: we should find out why php is creating session in /tmp/ | 20:33 |
| jdstrand | sommer: here, just do s/enabled/defined/ | 20:34 |
| mathiaz | zul: or which module is causing that - and fix it there | 20:34 |
| zul | mathiaz: cool.. | 20:34 |
| jdstrand | sommer: now to your previous question | 20:34 |
| jdstrand | sommer: 'ufw app update <foo>' only does something if you used the profile 'foo' in your rulesets | 20:35 |
| jdstrand | sommer: otherwise it's a no-op | 20:35 |
| sommer | jdstrand: gotcha | 20:36 |
| jdstrand | sommer: 'ufw app update --add-new <foo>' will do as above, but will also add a rule to your existing rules if the default application policy is changed away from 'skip' | 20:36 |
| jdstrand | sommer: no packages do that currently | 20:36 |
| jdstrand | sommer: unless you are going to talk about how an administrator can use applications profiles, you might want to just skip mentioning '--add-new' | 20:37 |
| jdstrand | sommer: what do you think? | 20:37 |
| sommer | jdstrand: I think that'd be simpler | 20:38 |
| jdstrand | (it is in the man page) | 20:38 |
| jdstrand | sommer: I agree | 20:38 |
| jdstrand | sommer: it was always intended for maintainer scripts, and possibly for advanced sysadmins | 20:38 |
| sommer | jdstrand: cool, I'll rework that bit | 20:38 |
| jdstrand | sommer: that's all I have. thanks *soo* much for the docs :) | 20:39 |
