sander__Hello everyone08:14
kgoetzallo08:14
sander__ive set up share folders on two ubuntu systems but as yet all they see is the windows computer.08:14
sander__i want to share deb files from one ubuntu system to the other08:15
kgoetzwhat sort of share?08:15
sander__folder08:15
kgoetz...08:15
kgoetzsmb/nfs?08:15
sander__ok in nautilus I right clicked the folder i wanted to share clicked 'properties' and then 'share' clicked all three boxes and then the 'share' button. samba was downloaded and installed08:17
sander__i also rebooted after that08:18
sander__oh and im running hardy heron08:19
kgoetzthis is an #ubuntu question, not one for -server08:19
sander__well i gathered that server would mean networking08:20
sander__lets say i wanted my second ubuntu system as a server08:20
kgoetzwhen its running as a server, come and ask again. while its a 'i clicked in nautilus' question, its not relevent here08:21

\shdid anyone tested heartbeat2 (but with V1 config style) together with bonding interfaces? I have a problem with it, that heartbeat doesn't recognize when all cables are removed from the NICs and kernel just saying: "ok, bond interface doesn't have any active net connections anymore"...08:26
ghaleb hello, how can I print a list of directories and the size of each one ?08:43
_rubendh -h *08:43

\shdf -h is more on filesystem basis....08:53
\shls -ladh * lists all directories from . including human readable sizes....08:56
\shand "find  / -type d -exec ls -lhd {} \;" just prints all directories in longformat + human readable sizes08:59
\shor "find  / -type d -exec ls -shd {} \;" just prints all directories in short format + human readable sizes (like: 4.0k <dirname>)08:59
Roy_MHi I am trying to configure westwood congestion control on ubuntu server. You do this by just changing the name in this file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control . The problem is that for some reason, even running as root, it says that I do not have permission to modify this file. Does anyone here have any experience with this?09:33
_rubenRoy_M: how are trying to alter that 'file' ?09:39
Roy_M_ruben, I have tried modifing it with vi and also doing echo "westwood" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control09:41
_ruben/proc entries being 'special', vi tends to no work .. with echo you'd need to do echo "westwood" | sudo tee /proc/....09:43
Roy_M_ruben, that seems to work, what is special about this file that requires tee?09:45
_rubenits not the file that requires tee .. when doing 'sudo echo blaat > /some/file', the echo is done as root, but the output redirection is done by your own unprivileged user09:46
_rubenusing 'sudo tee' works around that09:46
Roy_Mahh, well thanks a lot for your help _ruben09:47
_rubenno problem09:47

esbek_how to switch computer to use grub? or standard ubuntu kernel? i have slightly modified ubuntu (by ovh) with 2.6.24.5-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv4-32 kernel and lilo ; installed grub, but system still uses lilo12:50

ScottKesbek_: Ubuntu uses grub normally, so if it's using lilo, that's something they've changed and you'll probably have to ask them.13:45

Lamba(joined at request from #ubuntu-motu)  - where would be the right place to request deb rolling of some code ? ebox has a deb in ubuntu repos together with a few of its modules, but ebox svn has code for other modules.16:13

RediXeAnyone have success installing the DMS KnowledgeTree on 8.04 server 64 bit?17:17
RediXeTrying to install a filename.bin and I chmod +x and then run it but it doesn't do anything. No errors just puts me on a fresh line. Ex: $sudo ./file.bin [enter] $17:35
RediXeIs there any way to figure out what the issue is?17:36
sommerRediXe: what kind of file is it?  try file filename.bin17:37
RediXesommer, it's the knowledetree stack installer. On the site it says to run the chmod +x and then to run ./file.bin ... if I just try file.bin I get command not found17:39
RediXesommer, tried file file.bin and I see ELF 32-bit LSB executable ... i'm trying to install on 64-bit server17:40
sommerRediXe: that would be an issue... you'll need a 64 bit install file, or install knwoledge tree on a 32 bit system17:40
RediXeguess I have to try and install from source :(17:41
sommerRediXe: that'd probably work too17:41
RediXesommer, Yeah I thought the bin would work for both 32 and 64 but guess not17:42
