| Kamping_Kaiser | has anyone got personal experiance with dovcot vs courier for imap? i was told dovcot had in built duplicate checking, and "other goodies". i'm wondering if someone can attest to it from personal experiance | 00:05 |
| Ahmuck | marshall: ur mysql installation needs a root user and password iirc | 00:18 |
| Ahmuck | which iirc, is set up when you set up mysql | 00:19 |
| marshall | iirc? | 00:19 |
| andguent | if i recall correctly | 00:19 |

| hackeron | hey, how do I get exim to listen on port 587? -- I tried to add daemon_smtp_ports = smtp : 587 to /etc/exim/conf.d/main/00_local_settings and restarted exim, but it still only listens on port 25 - any ideas? | 00:20 |
| hackeron | anyone? hey, how do I get exim to listen on port 587? -- I tried to add daemon_smtp_ports = smtp : 587 to /etc/exim/conf.d/main/00_local_settings and restarted exim, but it still only listens on port 25 - any ideas? | 01:05 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hackeron, have you run dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low exim4-config ? you may see the option in there | 01:08 |
| * Kamping_Kaiser hasnt tried, so no useful input from me unfortunately | 01:09 | |
| hackeron | Kamping_Kaiser: yes, I have | 01:10 |
| marshall | andguent, i believe i set my mysql password when i installed it as part of LAMP | 01:10 |
| andguent | honestly I've never needed it, I assume you are trying to setup a custom email server at home to pass traffic through | 01:10 |
| hackeron | andguent: yep :) | 01:10 |
| andguent | hackeron: sorry, i dont know anything more then google does, never rolled my own server, always went gmail or zimbra | 01:11 |
| andguent | marshall: Sorry i never saw your original question, i signed in half way through the troubleshooting. What are you trying to do? | 01:12 |
| hackeron | andguent: well, I'm actually trying it to just relay email to my gmail - but I dont want to put my gmail password on every host. | 01:12 |
| andguent | ah, gotcha, i assume multiple linux servers all forwarding to your one master server? | 01:13 |
| hackeron | andguent: exactly :) | 01:13 |
| hackeron | andguent: but port 25 is often blocked, so I need my exim daemon to listen to 587 also | 01:14 |
| andguent | I'm lazy, if it were me I would just setup a throw away gmail account | 01:14 |
| marshall | andguent, i installed apache, php, mysql and phpmyadmin, im getting access denied for user (user)@(localhost) for both my regular account and my root accounts | 01:14 |
| andguent | marshall: trying from command line or something else? | 01:15 |
| hackeron | andguent: so, one jut pointing the servers to my server where I can just useradd server1 -- or going through a full gmail registration, confirmation, creating self signed certificate on server, etc, etc? | 01:15 |
| marshall | andguent, command line and phpmyadmin | 01:15 |
| andguent | hackeron: i always use ssmtp for outbound email sending, more specifically for pushing script error messages. I'm only suggesting this way because I don't know exim or sendmail at all -- I've never needed to make a cert or any of that to send through gmail | 01:17 |
| andguent | marshall: when doing command line, can you post your exact command you are trying to use to get in? | 01:17 |
| andguent | marshall: what else have you tried to gain access? have you tried any password recovery options yet? | 01:17 |
| marshall | im able to get in when i do a regular mysql | 01:17 |
| marshall | but if i try to do mysql -u root | 01:17 |
| marshall | i get access denied for user | 01:17 |
| marshall | how am I supposed to set up mysql, i did everything pretty much how i was instructed to | 01:18 |
| marshall | this is a fresh LAMP install | 01:18 |
| marshall | then i installed phpmyadmin | 01:18 |
| hackeron | andguent: hmmm? - I get your IP is dynamic and cannot be used | 01:18 |
| andguent | hackeron: exim or ssmtp? | 01:19 |
| hackeron | andguent: well, postfix, lol - but I want to try exim | 01:20 |
| andguent | marshall: gotcha, let me find some root password reset options... i'm basically just going to google for mysql root password reset | 01:20 |
| marshall | andguent, thanks | 01:20 |
| marshall | andguent, ok, i got in when i used 'root' and the password i set before | 01:23 |
| marshall | andguent, sorry for hte trouble | 01:23 |
| andguent | marshall: no worries, glad you got in | 01:23 |
| marshall | andguent, is it possible to add my user account to the mysql admin? | 01:24 |
| andguent | if you ever have additional password issues, use "FLUSH PRIVILAGES;" like salt is used on ham, its saved some hair pulling for me before | 01:24 |
| andguent | what do you mean by 'mysql admin'? | 01:25 |
| alienseer23 | how do I restart the "named" service when there is no "/etc/init.d/ named" ? I am trying to set up a dynamic dns service and I apparently need t0 "/etc/init.d/named restart" anyone help? | 02:50 |
| alienseer23 | do I just substitute bind for named in that line, then? | 02:51 |
| hackeron | alienseer23: erm, /etc/init.d/bind9 restart ? | 02:55 |
| alienseer23 | if i stop bind9, I can still use the named command | 02:56 |
| alienseer23 | I need to be able to start and stop named? | 02:56 |
| alienseer23 | I am attempting to use the bind9 dynamic dns server for webmin | 02:57 |
| hackeron | alienseer23: erm, what? -- bind9/named is the same thing | 02:58 |
| alienseer23 | if i /etc/init.d/bind9 stop" and then type in named "anyting" I get response, is this normal? | 03:00 |
| alienseer23 | this is why I don't understand...the program calls for the path to "Command to start named", and this should be /etc/init.d/bind9 start" right? | 03:02 |
| jmarsden | alienseer23: You may be confused... why are you typing in named "anything" ?? WHat are you trying to do when you type that? | 03:08 |
| === DrUnKnMuNkY1 is now known as DrUnKnMuNkY | ||
| [gquit]bombadil | if postfix is the default MTA for ubuntu, why do the packages for nagios and mailman install exim4 by default? | 04:01 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | do they depend on exim4 ? | 04:05 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: Yes, mailman has: Depends: adduser, apache2 | httpd, cron, exim4 | mail-transport-agent, libc6 (>= 2.4), logrotate, lsb-base (>= 3.0-6), pwgen, python (>= 2.3), python-support (>= 0.7.1), ucf | 04:06 |
| jmarsden | I think that's probably a packaging bug? | 04:06 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, if postfix is already installed its a bug, if there was no existing mta, then exim would have got installed | 04:07 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: If postfix was already installed, it would satisfy the mail-transport-agent requirement so exim4 would not then be installed. | 04:15 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, i would have thought that. | 04:17 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, does mailman do the or depends as well? | 04:17 |
| jmarsden | Mailman's Depends I posted earlier. Did not yet check nagios... | 04:18 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | er, sorry. nagios. | 04:18 |
| alienseer23 | jmarsden: when I type in "named help" or anything after named, it gives me a response, was under the impression that if I stopped the bind9 service that any named shouldn't give back output? | 04:19 |
| jmarsden | alienseer23: When you stop named, it isn't running. When you then type named as a command, you run it... what are you trying to do here? | 04:19 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | if you stop named it will stop listening for dns requests | 04:20 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | by running named --help, your starting it again | 04:20 |
| alienseer23 | so to start and stop named, I can use the command "/etc/init.d/bind9 start" or stop, yes the executable is still just 'named'...? | 04:21 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: nagios3 depends on nagios3-common which depends on bsd-mailx which says: Depends: base-files (>= 2.2.0), exim4 | mail-transport-agent, libc6 (>= 2.4), liblockfile1 (>= 1.0) | 04:21 |
| jmarsden | alienseer23: Yes. | 04:21 |
| alienseer23 | jmarsden: I am trying to configure a bind 9 dynamic dns server module for webmin | 04:21 |
| alienseer23 | thank you :D | 04:22 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, i cant see why exim would be getting installed then. perhaps try `aptitude why exim4` (iirc that tells you the dependancy tree) | 04:22 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | *shudder* webmin | 04:22 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: I think [gquit]bombadil was installing them with no MTA on his system, and in that case the instaler will pick the first one listed in an "or" depend to satisfy it. | 04:23 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: The solution is to install postfix first, then install mailman or nagios. | 04:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, nod. i'm supprised an ubuntu server ships with no mta | 04:24 |
| alienseer23 | Kamping_Kaiser: I would ditch webmin all together if I could find another webbased bind9 administration tool/control panel that worked with dynamic dns. | 04:24 |
| alienseer23 | goal is to let people sign up to use a name server with dynamic dns capabilities ((climbing the learning curve)) | 04:25 |
| jmarsden | alienseer23: Why would your webmin module want you to be typing anything close to named "anything" at the command prompt? I suspect you are not doing what it wants you to? | 04:25 |
| jmarsden | Kamping_Kaiser: Security -- why have open ports you may not want open in a default install? | 04:26 |
| alienseer23 | jmarsden: I meant I could type in "named" and getno outpur, but if I put anything at all after it then I would get output | 04:26 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jmarsden, because it doesnt have to listen externally, it just has to be there (including for things like not having exim4 accidentally installed, or sending email from the server) | 04:26 |
| jmarsden | alienseer23: man named to understand that | 04:27 |
| alienseer23 | k | 04:27 |
| jmarsden | But basically you don't want to do either one of those things. | 04:27 |
| alienseer23 | k | 04:28 |
| jmarsden | Start it from the init script, and if you need to modify its parameters edit /etc/default/bind9 | 04:28 |
| alienseer23 | yeah, so far so good, just the named/bind9 dual identity thing had me a bit confused for a sec | 04:29 |
| jmarsden | binary program name == named, package name and so init script name = bind9 | 04:30 |
| alienseer23 | sense! | 04:30 |
| alienseer23 | I've been banging my head about the keyboard for a few hours, perhaps my true mistake is that I refuse to take breaks | 04:31 |
| jmarsden | Probably ;) So now you have discovered that piece of wisdom... take a break? | 04:31 |
| alienseer23 | yes | 04:31 |
| alienseer23 | I may have..let's see if I listen :D | 04:32 |

| gabbler | faust-c, i need to know how to find out where grub is and then install it on the other root drive | 17:02 |
| gabbler | oh :) | 17:02 |
| Faust-C | but from what ive read youll boot up live cd and re-install grub | 17:02 |
| Faust-C | you can find out where it is by filesystem type | 17:02 |
| Faust-C | md will be raid and grub will be ext2 (default file system) | 17:03 |
| gabbler | so how could i find out if it is on md0 or md1? | 17:03 |
| Faust-C | it wont be on either | 17:06 |

| zoopster | I take it no one using Macbook Pro's and 8.10 are having this problem? DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0 | 19:36 |
| zoopster | nijaba: This is the error we saw on my Mac this week | 19:37 |
| kirkland | zoopster: i'm not sure you'll get the best return-on-investment asking that question in this channel | 19:37 |
| kirkland | zoopster: i'd start by searching Launchpad, which you can do from http://people.ubuntu.com/~kirkland/search.html | 19:38 |
| zoopster | bummer | 19:38 |
| zoopster | it's already at kernel.org | 19:38 |

| slicslak | looking for backup suggestions... multiple servers need incremental multi-day backups in a production environment. backups will be done over nfs or rsync to a backup server. what are you guys using? a solution such as amanda, backuppc? or are you rolling your own rsync scripts? | 21:21 |
| Deeps | !backup | slicslak | 21:22 |
| ubottu | slicslak: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 21:22 |
| Nafallo | backuppc is sweet | 21:22 |
| * hads likes rdiff-backup | 21:25 | |
| slicslak | haven't heard of that one | 21:27 |
| slicslak | i recall rsnapshot being pretty nice. backuppc looks like it has some nice guis to impress management. :) | 21:27 |
| hads | rdiff-backup is like rsnapshot except it (rdiff-backup) stores diffs of files rather than hard links so can save a lot of space depending on what you are backing up. The trade-off being a little longer run time. | 21:33 |
| hads | But if you're looking for GUIs etc. then it won't impress management. | 21:33 |
| Faust-C | dar | 21:40 |
| Faust-C | i just dont like that it seems as if most opensource backup solutions are tedious to setup and maintain | 21:41 |
| jmarsden|work | Faust-C: Which commercial closed source ones are fun to set up and maintain? ;) | 21:42 |
| hads | *shrug* seems the opposite to me. | 21:42 |
| Faust-C | jmarsden|work, atm i dont like either | 21:42 |
| Faust-C | i still havent found anything that i would like to use w/ users and servers | 21:42 |
| jmarsden|work | Sounds like you have very specific needs. There are a lot of reasonable choices out there. Bacula? Amanda? http://www.restore-backup.com/ even? | 21:45 |
| Faust-C | yeah im looking at those 2 | 21:45 |
| Faust-C | primary issue is training co-workers | 21:45 |
| Faust-C | i can use anything, but that cant be said for my peers | 21:45 |
| Faust-C | jmarsden|work, thanks for that link | 21:49 |
| Faust-C | never heard of that before | 21:49 |
| jmarsden|work | Faust-C: No problem. | 21:50 |
| Kl4m | Hi, I virtualized a Ubuntu 7.10 server into vmware server and I need it to configure the pcnet32 card (or should it be vmxnet?). Can anyone help with with this? | 22:50 |
| Kl4m | problem solved: cleared /etc/udev/rules.d/70-...net...; replaced eth1 with eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces; restarted udev and networking. | 23:21 |
| slicslak | cool, thanks for the discussion (re: backup) guys. i'll evaluate a few next and make a decision. | 23:35 |
