slestakdoes harder server have a firewall enabled by default that would block incoming ssh?  I did install openssh and started it.  can ssh to locahost, but cannot port forward 2201 on a hrhel host to a hardy vbos gurst03:54
slestaki am using the 8.04.1 livecd install03:55
ropetinIt has ufw installed by default, but it's not enabled (at least it wasn't for me)03:55
slestaki saw that on reboot, said disabled but thought I would ask.  I am looking at server guide now03:56
slestaki have perfect outbound access, just get port refused on rhel host.03:56
slestaktrying to run HH in a vbox vm03:57
ropetinYou're connecting from the Ubuntu box to the RedHat one?03:57
ropetinHow's the networking for both configured, are they contactable in other ways?  I.e. can you ping one to the other?03:58
slestakbeen lurking #vbox for 3 days but no joy yet.  no, vice versa.  rhel 5.2 host trying to connect to HH server guest.  have port 2201 forwarded to port 22 on guest.  set it up using the VBoxManage command03:58
slestakwith nat + vbox, its documented that icmp will not respond.  i have perfect outbound connection with both boxes.03:58
slestaki dont want to use bridged tun0 setup for vm, the server is remote and im afraid i will bork sth03:59
ropetinOutbound to each other, or outbound to the world?03:59
slestakoutboud to world.  nothing inbound to HH vm03:59
slestaki eventually will setup lamp test, but ssh was supposed to be the easy case :)04:00
ropetinTrue :D04:00

antdedyetsathish: there are some round about way sto monitor bind's DNS performance using snmp with cacti and enabling query logs, but if you do A LOT of queries, this has a large potential to impact your service speed06:58

slestakhi.  i have installed ubuntu hardy server in a vm for a demo lamp machine.  ive looked at the server guide but I cannot determine if the mysql5 has a root user by default.  most of the docs I see presume it will.22:15
slestakbut using mysqladmin with a -u just prints usage information.22:16
slestaki.e. /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root22:16
slestaki vrified with init.d/mysql that it is running22:17

skorvhello23:13
skorvthings are going nicely23:13
skorvone small question23:14
skorvhow do i run a program automaticly every boot (like windows service)23:14
hadsWho would you like to run it as and what type of program?23:15
skorvhas to be runned as root23:15
skorvits an echoserver23:15
skorvfrom echogent23:15
skorvit allows me better management over vnc (i do remote support a lot)23:16
skorvthats one reason i changed to linux... faster and much more stable23:16
hadsYou'd typically run a daemon from a script in /etc/init.d/ and update-rc.d23:16
skorvok23:17
skorvhow do i create the script23:17
lukehasnonameYou write a script file.. look up bash or zsh scripting on google23:18
skorvand it will run on boot....23:18
skorvgreat23:18
hadsYou can also run things from /etc/rc.local but an init script would be the preferred way23:18
lukehasnonameYou'll set it's "mode" to executable, include it in the /etc/init.d folder, and create a link to it in one of the rc.d folders.23:18
hads(using update-rc.d)23:18
skorvin linux everything appears to be deadly complicated23:19
