carbon_monoxideHi there07:28
carbon_monoxidedo i really have to compile Mono myself rather than apt-get/aptitude it? this is not debian/ubuntu style07:28
carbon_monoxide!mono07:30
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about mono07:30
phaidroshow would one monitor a complete directory and trigger an action if something in there cahnged?08:39
phaidrosfam and gamin seem to be more oriented for the desktop an I don't want to expose RPC to the outer world :)08:40
phaidrosso, what would be a recommendatable technology for file monitoring on servers?08:40
sorenphaidros: For real-time monitoring?08:47
sorencarbon_monoxide: No, why would you suggest that?08:48
carbon_monoxidesoren: because i can't find Mono in repo08:49
henkjancarbon_monoxide: http://inotify-tools.sourceforge.net/08:49
sorencarbon_monoxide: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=mono08:49
carbon_monoxidethanks henkjan and soren!08:53
carbon_monoxidesoren: mono package seems is ready on 8.0408:56
sorencarbon_monoxide: Mono has been in Ubuntu for ages.08:56
carbon_monoxidesoren: mono is available for dapper, feisty, and gutsy when i look into the URL you've provide me09:23
Kooncarbon_monoxide: scroll down09:29
carbon_monoxidehi Koon! do you mean mono-common?09:29
Kooncarbon_monoxide: apparently the mono packages have been refactored09:30
carbon_monoxideKoon: i see. thanks for the assist! :)09:32
Koondepending on what you're after, mono-runtime looks promising09:32
carbon_monoxideKoon: so the mono-mcs seems like the c# compiler09:40
Kooncarbon_monoxide: I have absolutely no Mono clue.09:41
carbon_monoxideKoon: me too. no knowledge on .NET09:41
phaidrossoren: yes, for realtime monitoring09:53
henkjanphaidros: http://inotify-tools.sourceforge.net/09:55
henkjancarbon_monoxide: that url was not for you :)09:55
phaidrosthx henkjan, looks like the solution I searched :)10:30
phaidrosto be precise: incron is the chosen one10:35
alexharringtonAny libvirt gurus about? I'm trying to get kvm live migration working on hardy, but can't get to qemu monitor per the docs I've found on the kvm site11:30
alexharringtoni just get a prompt "serial0" where the "qemu>" prompt should be11:30
phaidrosanyone familiar with incron? how to declare a whole directory recursive? (/tmp/foo/* is not working unfortunately)11:30
sorenalexharrington: You can't get access to the monitor, when you're using libvirt.11:31
sorenalexharrington: ...by design.11:31
alexharringtonsoren: ok, any idea how to do migration via libvirt then?11:32
sorenalexharrington: Not possible.11:33
sorenalexharrington: In Hardy, at least.11:33
sorenalexharrington: In Jaunty, probably.11:33
alexharringtonsoren: ok - thanks for your help. Tis a shame, we'll just have to wait. Cheers11:34

paul68I have a server with 2 ethernet cards for which eth0 is active at this point, if I activate the 2nd eth is that going to interfear with my current setup?12:48
ikoniapaul68: depends on your routing, but most likley - no12:50
alexharringtonpaul68: It depends on how you configure the second card. Assuming you put it on a different subnet then it shouldn't cause your original any problem12:50
paul68ikonia so I can easely modify my interfaces file and start the 2nd eth accordingly12:52
ikoniayes, as long as your routing is sound, you'll have no problems12:52
paul68I still have to create my firewall that's the reason that I want to fire up my 2nd eth12:54
paul68at this point my router is still handling the firewall part but I want to change my server into firewal router dns and dhcp server and install the router as ap on my network13:01
ikoniapaul68: ok, so what's the question ?13:05
paul68the original question was if I could do this and the reason why I wanted to do that13:06
ikoniapaul68 you can do it, although it seems a bit pointles, it depends on your needs13:06
paul68well I want to prepare my system to change to the mentioned config with as less downtime possible since my pregnant wife gets very dangerous when she doesn't have her internet13:08
ikoniaok13:08
paul68can I modify my interfaces file and restart my networking from remote?13:09

spiekeyHello!15:17
spiekeythis might be a little off topic but i know here are some smart ppl :)15:18
spiekeyi am failing to compile syslog http://pastebin.com/m4bf1b11415:18
spiekeytha autor says: #15:18
spiekeytry adding a -ldbi to the link command line.15:18
spiekeybut i dont know how?! Whats the syntax? :)15:19
spiekeyanyone? :)15:22
SchneeSchwarzspiekey: is libdbi0-dev installed on the machine? But: why do you want to compile syslog in the first place.15:25
spiekeySchneeSchwarz: because i need native postgres support :)15:31
spiekeySchneeSchwarz: yes, its installed.15:33
SchneeSchwarzI'm not familiar with compiling syslog-ng. But the generic first step I'd try is to look at the output of ./configure --help (in the dir where you unpacked the sources). Maybe there's an option to enable pgsql support.15:41
SchneeSchwarzIf all else fails, you could execute line 4 of your paste manually after adding -ldbi to it.15:44
spiekeythat worked! :))15:45
iAlienI am hopeing that somebody has an idea for a work around for a problem i am having with ubuntu server 8.04. It wont install on a Dell Latitude D600 I have at the office. It appears to be a known issue, I am just hopeing there is a workaround that i have not found16:16
Deepslooked on launchpad?16:21
iAlienkernel panic16:24
iAlienthis kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu 0:616:24
iAlienunable to book please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu16:25
andoliAlien: Sounds like your D600 doesn't support PAE?16:29
andoliAlien: Is it neccesary to run the server-kernel, or would it work with the generic ubuntu kernel?16:29
iAlienthats what i'm thinking -- i am just needing to use it as a test bed so i can develop a website with out having it on a live server16:31
iAlienjust need apache / php / mysql16:31
iAlienand sshd16:31
trashguy?16:31
trashguywhy wouldnt it support PAE?16:31
trashguyhwo old is this thing16:32
iAlienim guessing 3 or 4 years16:32
iAlienwas here when i started working here16:32
trashguyshould be fine16:34
trashguyp4 right?16:35
iAlienPentium m --- however we do have a few that have the p416:35
soreniAlien: You need to get the generic kernel installed.16:36
soreniAlien: Boot the server cd, and enter rescue mode. go through the dialogues, and when you're in a shell on the installed system, do an apt-get install linux-generic.16:36
iAlienthanks16:39
iAlieni knew there had to be an easier way then just installing the desktop version16:41
andoliAlien: Another option could be to use the alternate-cd16:43
iAlienjust started the apt-get16:44
iAliensure seems that linux has changed alot - i don't remember it being this easy16:46
andoliAlien: It wasn't :)16:47
freaky_ti hope i can upgrade from ubuntu hardy to intrepid without any problems on my server in 2-3 days16:50
freaky_tmaybe i should wait another week so any occuring bugs will be fixed16:50
trashguyi doubt its pae messing his stuff up16:50
iAlienwas 7 years when i last worked with well at that time freebsd16:50
trashguydell laptops are ntorious fail16:50
trashguyfreebsd isnt linux ^^16:51
iAlientrue16:51
trashguyits a crime to associate it with linux16:51
trashguyI actually run the desktop version of ubuntu with the server kernel though16:52
trashguyits win16:52
iAlieni have the desktop version on a few systems here ( was only able to get away with it cause we were out of licenses for AV software ) for internet terminals for clients16:55

ubottupltmnky: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)17:37
pltmnky:P well, we have a printserver, and a kdc and ldap servers already working and set up correctly. I was able to follow the cups docs on getting cups to auth against kerberos (meaning ask for a password everytime we print). (there are _no_ windows/macs in the mix). I would like for cups to check against the existing kerberos ticket for user printing17:40

slicslakwhat do i need to do to add an admin?  just use adduser and add the user to the sudo group?22:17
trashguyyes22:18
mathiazslicslak: add the user to the admin group22:20
trashguythats right22:21
trashguyubuntu just allows admin group to sudo22:21
slicslakodd, on a ubuntu-server install i did last month the admin group existed (and no sudo group).  but on this install of ubuntu-server there is no admin group but there is a sudo group.22:23

slicslakmathiaz, i didn't.  it's a dedicated server that was setup for me.22:28

slicslakJ-_, it's pretty easy, but have you tried #wordpress?23:24
J-_slicslak:  Yes. I've installed it and everything. Just not sure what to chmod /var/www/wp-content to. I did a "sudo chmod -R 777 wp-content" But, I'm not entirely sure if that's right.

J-_:(23:35
slicslakI recommend:23:35
slicslaksudo chmod ug=rwX,o=23:36
slicslakthat will give the user and group read and write and other nothing23:36
slicslakthe X makes directories only executable (readable in that case)23:36
slicslakor you might try:23:37
slicslaksudo chmod ug=rwX,o=rX23:37
slicslakthat's also an ok setup and will let apache read your files if it's not the owner or in the group23:37
anthonyHi, I know in the last release cycle NUT had a MIR that I believe was accepted, yet I haven't succeeded in finding documentation for it in the Ubuntu Server Guide or on the wiki.  Could someone point me in the right direction?  (I'm hoping to set up a new server & UPS tomorrow.)23:41
J-_slicslak:  the 2nd one didn't work well. It says, "You need to make this file writable before you can save your changes." Then states to do, http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions23:41
