| squee__ | Is it possible to install ubuntu-server remotely, doing nothing but putting in a stock ubuntu-server cd and maybe SSHing in? | 01:56 |
| lukehasnoname | I /think/ there is a way to set that up, but I don't think it's with a stock cd | 02:00 |
| lukehasnoname | I seem to remember a tutorial where someone spun a custom disk so that when it booted up, it listened for remote connections and you installed through remote X | 02:01 |

| Ramrunner | Good afternoon all | 07:05 |
| andol | Ramrunner: Good morning | 07:05 |
| Ramrunner | I just did a server 8.04->8.10 upgrade and lost my internal net Outlook clients connectivity to dovecot. Running local Evolution on the server works fine | 07:06 |
| Ramrunner | imap | 07:06 |
| soren | How do they fail? | 07:07 |
| Ramrunner | With a wonderful Outlook error of "Cannot connect to server" :( | 07:07 |
| soren | I can't work with that :) | 07:08 |
| Ramrunner | in the mail log it says "ubuntu dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=192.168.0.3, lip=192.168.0.10" | 07:08 |
| Ramrunner | as an example | 07:08 |
| soren | Wat kind of authentication are you using? | 07:08 |
| soren | "What", even. | 07:08 |
| Ramrunner | I believe it's standard PAM unless the upgrade changed that??? | 07:09 |
| soren | No, I mean IMAP authentication. | 07:09 |
| Ramrunner | sorry - my bad - I'm allowing plain text passwords - is that what you mean? | 07:09 |
| soren | Yes. | 07:10 |
| soren | Can you put your dovecot conf on pastebin? Be sure to weed out sensitive information, if any | 07:10 |
| Ramrunner | no problem - except I'm new to IRC. How do I do that, is it easy to explain? | 07:11 |
| Ramrunner | ok wait - it's a web site | 07:13 |
| soren | Right. | 07:13 |
| Ramrunner | Do I just paste my config into the web site and hit the button? | 07:13 |
| soren | Yes. | 07:14 |
| soren | That will give you an URL that you can post here. | 07:15 |
| soren | ..and then I can go look at your config. | 07:15 |
| Ramrunner | http://pastebin.com/m6738d770 | 07:15 |
| soren | Ramrunner: It looks fine at a glance... Try cranking up the logging. | 07:18 |
| soren | auth_debug, for instance. | 07:18 |
| Ramrunner | ok - here's a new snippet | 07:22 |
| Ramrunner | Nov 7 16:20:23 ubuntu dovecot: Killed with signal 15 | 07:22 |

| Ramrunner | the ones that are working are the local evolution running | 07:22 |
| Ramrunner | the one at 16:21:13 is outlook trying to connect | 07:22 |
| Ramrunner | is there a set of telnet commands I can maybe try??? | 07:23 |

| Ramrunner | Your IMAP server wishes to aleert you to the following: | 07:26 |
| Ramrunner | Plaintext authentication is disabled, but your client sent password in plaintext anyway | 07:27 |
| Ramrunner | let me check that damn config file again | 07:27 |
| Ramrunner | sweet as | 07:30 |
| Ramrunner | When the server upgraded - it honestly didn't work, and I couldn't get it to work. | 07:30 |
| Ramrunner | I copied the new config file, set my settings, but obviously mis-read the plaintext thing | 07:31 |
| Ramrunner | the default is yes to NOT allow plaint text. | 07:31 |
| Ramrunner | I feel like a dick - and I owe soren a beer | 07:32 |
| Ramrunner | soren -you still there? I want to thank you | 07:33 |
| soren | I'm here again now :) | 07:45 |
| soren | sorry for wandering off like that. I had something I needed to handle. | 07:45 |
| Ramrunner | no problem - just wanted to thank you - i got it sorted in the end. | 07:47 |
| Ramrunner | Postfix is holding new messages now in a queue, which mailscanner is supposed to pick up and deliver, which isn't working any more but I'll sort that one out myself | 07:48 |
| J-_ | What should I chown my /var/www to so user can write with root privileges via sftp? Is there anyway to get a prompt password when trying to add to a root protected directory like /var/www? | 12:15 |
| J-_ | It looks like /var/www is owned by www-data for some reason. | 12:16 |
| stka | hi | 12:50 |
| jgjones | J-_, www-data - that's the process Apache2 runs as (so allows Apache access - usually I give group as www-data and on pages where apache2 need to edit (ie for Wordpress or other CMS) I give group write permission | 12:51 |
| stka | in ubuntu-server 8.10 is the dhcp3 and bind9 Sever linked against LDAP? In 8.04 they are not :-( | 12:52 |
| J-_ | jgjones: So, would sudo chown -R <user>:www-data /var/www be safe? | 12:55 |
| J-_ | Currently I have Drupal installed. I gave up on Wordpress. | 12:55 |
| jgjones | I don't change the permission of the /var/www directory itself | 12:55 |
| J-_ | hmm | 12:56 |
| jgjones | However on folders IN /var/www itself - I might have my own directory with my website in it - let's call it mysite - this would have user:group as me:www-data | 12:56 |
| jgjones | me being me obviously :) | 12:56 |
| J-_ | true | 12:57 |
| * J-_ ponders | 12:57 | |
| jgjones | I give it group-write permission (so if I edit pages in Drupal/wordpress/whatever - Apache2 can write to there because it's www-data) | 12:57 |
| jgjones | hope that made sense...not sure if I'm explaining it very well :) | 12:58 |
| incidence | Is it possible to deny users removing ".bash_history" or can I log the history to another file too? | 13:43 |
| soren | incidence: Anything like that can be easily circumvented. | 13:45 |
| incidence | Yea :/ | 13:45 |
| incidence | "export histfile=/dev/null" etc | 13:45 |
| soren | For instance, yes. | 13:46 |
| soren | Or start a different shell. | 13:46 |
| incidence | Yes. So the answer is no, for bash | 13:46 |
| soren | Well, no. | 13:46 |
| soren | Not if the question is: "Is it possible to deny users removing ".bash_history" or can I log the history to another file too?" | 13:47 |
| incidence | I'd like to know what commands all users / certain users run. Any suggestions? | 13:48 |
| soren | It's the correct answer to the question: "Can I easily force any command a user runs to be logged somewhere where he can't delete it again?". | 13:48 |
| incidence | Yes. | 13:48 |

| slicslak | in /var/log/messages i'm seeing -- MARK -- all over the place | 14:15 |
| slicslak | can anyone tell me what this is? | 14:15 |
| ScottK | slicslak: It's just a period message to the log so you know logging is working even if there's nothing to log. It's normal. | 14:16 |
| ScottK | period/periodic | 14:17 |
| slicslak | thanks | 14:17 |
| _ruben | for some reason the pxe bootrom can get an ip just fine, but when the ubuntu installer kicks in and tries to get an ip everything goes to shit | 14:20 |

| slicslak | J-_, set the group owner to a group that you and every web tech is in and make g+rwX for all your web files | 14:48 |
| slicslak | _ruben, where would i look for actual reboots? | 14:49 |
| J-_ | How would I do that? I think someone told me a long time ago. But, I forget. | 14:49 |
| slicslak | rtfm chmod and chgrp | 14:49 |

| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 14:50 |
| slicslak | lol, and here i thought i was being helpful | 14:50 |
| slicslak | how do you know how to invoke the bot in the chanel but do not know how to chmod? i wasn't being rude, i even gave you the syntax! | 14:50 |
| J-_ | I hang out in other Ubuntu channels where ubottu is. And, I've been using Ubuntu for a few years. :) | 14:51 |
| J-_ | 3-4 years I suppose. | 14:51 |
| slicslak | note the capital X in that chmod command, that makes directories readable but NOT files executable | 14:54 |
| aleka | is the version of vim installed by default on the server ed not the full package? | 14:55 |
| Gargoyle | whats jfgi? | 14:55 |
| slicslak | that's right | 14:55 |
| slicslak | aleka, updat apt first and then install vim | 14:55 |
| aleka | I am trying to enable syntax highlighting and trying to install the package: vim-full tries to install a bunch of Gnome-deps | 14:56 |
| slicslak | just install vim, but you need to do a package update first | 14:56 |
| aleka | slicslak: Thanks | 14:56 |
| _ruben | slicslak: the 'last' command shows reboots | 14:56 |
| slicslak | _ruben, thanks. it just shows the last reboot though. i was more hoping for all reboots (and preferrably who invoked them). i'm assuming it's somewhere in syslog.... just need the right grep | 14:57 |

| mynous | im having problems with vsftpd making rtorrent uploads drop to almost zero when im transfering a file, even when the rate is limited. is this just a conflict of the 2 programs? | 23:12 |
| mynous | neither of them will come close to maxing their connection when running concurently either | 23:12 |
| kgoetz | hm. not seen a behavour like that before | 23:13 |
| mynous | another strange coincidence is that rtorrent seems to be able to either "max" download or upload but one drops while the other goes up | 23:13 |
| mynous | the server has a 10mb connection and when downloading files from it at 3-4mb i dont see a reason for rtorrent to stall to almost 0KB, i just cant think of what would need to be configured | 23:16 |
| kgoetz | i cant think of a reason either | 23:16 |
| mynous | damn | 23:17 |
| mynous | could it be that the harddrive just isnt fast enough? | 23:17 |
