[00:03] <nicodarious> hello, i'm back and i have decided to just go with mdadm as andol has said that he uses.  although i do have a question...  once /dev/md0 is created, how do you destroy it?  and also, is it possible to unmount /dev/md0 and add another hard drive to it in raid0?
[00:34] <jmarsden> nicodarious: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID  (and do not use RAID 0 on a server unless you do not care about your data)
[00:36] <nicodarious> jmarsden, thanks.  i'm checking it out now.
[00:37] <nicodarious> jmarsden, no, it's just a home server.  need lots of space without lots of partitions.  just want something big with fast access times.
[00:37] <Kamping_Kaiser> why lots of partitions?
[00:38] <nicodarious> hmmm.. ok, this is for a RAID installation.  not just implementing a raid drive.
[00:38] <nicodarious> i already have the OS installed on a 10K RPM drive.  i think it's plenty fast enough without raid.
[00:38] <nicodarious> Kamping_Kaiser, i have several hard drives to make up my 4TB home server
[00:39] <nicodarious> but none of them are bigger than 750GB, and most are only 500GB.  i am trying to get raid0 implemented instead of lvm2
[00:39] <Kamping_Kaiser> nicodarious, perhaps lvm over raid 5 (although you will lose space using raid 5/6)
[00:39] <Kamping_Kaiser> heh. ok
[00:40] <nicodarious> i bought a card with the merchant telling me 'it's REAL hardware RAID!'  yeah,  i'm about to go back and bust him one.
[00:40] <hads> RAID5 is growable these days too
[00:40] <nicodarious> hmm... question on raid 5.....
[00:40] <Kamping_Kaiser> hads, problem would be his different sized drives ;/
[00:41] <nicodarious> ahh, so they all have to be the same size?
[00:41] <hads> Yeah for sure, just mentioning that you can grow RAID5 now without LVM
[00:41] <nicodarious> that sucks
[00:42] <nicodarious> i really want REAL hardware raid so i can set it up outside the OS and it be completely translucent to 8.10, but it seems no one in Germany knows what real HW RAID card is.
[00:42] <hads> Software RAID is pretty neat.
[00:42] <jmarsden> nicodarious: Do you have a real hardware raid controller?
[00:43] <nicodarious> only a VT6421 PCI controller with 2 500GB drives on it.  then the nvidia JBOD RAID controller on the mobo.
[00:43] <nicodarious> but both are software types
[00:43] <nicodarious> nothing hardware wise
[00:44] <jmarsden> OK.  You can't do real hardware RAID without a real hardwre RAID controller.  Just can't be done.
[00:44] <nicodarious> that's where i was thinking dmraid, but i couldn't find anything to help me set up dmraid.  so i went with mdadm to set up /dev/dm0 first
[00:45] <jmarsden> OK.  You can do that, but I don't think you can expand a RAID0 array later adding extar drives without losing all the data on it.
[00:45] <nicodarious> yeah.  i know.  that's where i am pissed.  the guy who sold me the VR6421 said it was real HW RAID controller
[00:46] <nicodarious> ok, so i'm down to software raid, but i have to do something with it.  it's got to be better than it was back in the day 10 years ago.
[00:46] <jmarsden> It is, because your CPU is faster than it was 10 years ago.
[00:46] <nicodarious> you know of any sites that show step-wise how to set up a dmraid?
[00:47] <nicodarious> at two duallie CPUs running at 3.2 GHz?  better be!  rofl!
[00:47] <jmarsden> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[00:48] <Kamping_Kaiser> hw raid> software raid for a lot of things, no matter how fast the cpu
[00:48] <jmarsden> google is your friend... google for   dmraid tutorial   and go from there...
[00:48] <jmarsden> Kamping_Kaiser: True if you have the hardware, irrelevant if you don't
[00:49] <Kamping_Kaiser> jmarsden, always relevant, just not always helpful.
[00:52] <nicodarious> hmm.. that website i have looked at a lot.  google has been my site of choice for the past 8 hours of working on this.  but most of it pertains to INSTLLING onto /dev/mapper/* not just setting up one and using the VIA instead of the nvidia controller.
[02:37] <Lokin> How do I boot the last person to SSH to my server?
[02:54] <L1NUX_14SIDE> hello
[02:54] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I have a bit of a problem setting up ubuntu server
[02:55] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I cannot ping the server for some reason
[02:55] <JDStone> is there like a list of some of the apps that don't work on 64-bit?
[02:55] <L1NUX_14SIDE> JDStone try googling it
[02:55] <JDStone> good idea, thanks
[02:55] <JDStone> i should have thought of that
[02:55] <JDStone> duh, lol
[02:57] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I set the ip on the server to 192.168.1.5 and the client I was testing the connection with to 192.168.1.7
[02:58] <JDStone> L1NUX_14SIDE: what's the problem?
[02:58] <JDStone> for a server, should I go 64-bit or 32-bit?
[02:59] <L1NUX_14SIDE> well what's your proccessor
[02:59] <L1NUX_14SIDE> amd
[02:59] <JDStone> yes
[02:59] <JDStone> amd
[02:59] <L1NUX_14SIDE> well, for the 64 bit system
[03:00] <L1NUX_14SIDE> you can utilize more ram I believe
[03:00] <JDStone> system only has 1GB
[03:01] <JDStone> it probably won't ever need anymore than 3GB
[03:01] <L1NUX_14SIDE> hmm.. I'm not really sure about the benefits of running 64 bit
[03:01] <JDStone> maybe even 2
[03:01] <JDStone> yeah, i know...
[03:01] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I suggest hitting up google for some answers
[03:01] <JDStone> yep, thansk
[03:01] <JDStone> *thanks
[03:01] <JDStone> actually, I just found something...
[03:01] <L1NUX_14SIDE> sure
[03:02] <L1NUX_14SIDE> if you have some answers most questions can be found in a google search
[03:02] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I've already tried to look for answers to my problem with my system
[03:03] <L1NUX_14SIDE> but, alas I had to get some human help
[03:03] <L1NUX_14SIDE> hoopss....
[03:03] <L1NUX_14SIDE> reverse what I wrote
[03:04] <JDStone> hmm, this says I should go 64bit, but I still think I'm going to go 32bit
[03:04] <JDStone> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit
[03:05] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I wish I had a 64bit system
[03:05] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I could really use the extra speed for running simulations on blender
[03:09] <JDStone> why don't you have one, they're pretty cheap
[03:16] <L1NUX_14SIDE> yeah, but besides running blender I don't really have a need for one
[03:16] <L1NUX_14SIDE> I got a pretty decent P4 workstation running at 2.9Ghz
[03:17] <L1NUX_14SIDE> that was given to me ;)
[03:30] <Lokin> Anyone here any good with Unix command line?
[03:31] <Lokin> ....
[04:01] <JDStone> Lokin: what's up?
[04:35] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all, I'm looking to see if there is a minimal Ubuntu Server install cd .. like a business card (80'ish MB) iso instead of the larger install cd?
[04:37] <NineTeen67Comet> OI'
[04:38] <NineTeen67Comet> Most of my servers are Ubuntu (8.04) with a couple Debian boxes but I would like to isntall with the smallest media possible and the biz card sized cds are perfect.
[05:30] <ball> Hmm... now I have Ubuntu Server installed, I'm not sure what to do with it.
[06:05] <lukehasnoname> yo guys
[06:06] <ball> hello
[06:06] <ball> Anyone here used swat?
[06:06] <lukehasnoname> I thought about asking a question but I want to ask google first
[06:40] <ball> With Ubuntu Server, is it difficult to configure the machine to be a DHCP server on *only* one of its attached networks?
[06:45] <LMJ> it's not hard ball; you specify which interface should listen the DHCP server
[06:48] <LMJ> Got a nasty error with my 2 md devices :  EXT2-fs warning (device md0): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2       I've fsck'ed them several time but it still not good. What can I do please ?
[06:53] <ball> LMJ :reformat your partition and restore from your most recent backup tape?
[06:54] <ball> oh wait, is md a memory disk?
[06:54] <ball> (ramdrive)?
[06:57] <LMJ> no, it's software raid
[06:59] <ball> Ah okay.
[07:29] <Sludge321> Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone had time to discuss with me setting up an MTA on my web server - for sending mail only (not receiving, not relaying/forwarding - no MX records)? I've taken a quick look/search for postfix and exim and all the guides relate to configuring both sending and receiving.
[07:51] <jmarsden> Sludge321: ssmtp  may be what you want
[07:52] <Sludge321> jmarsden: I'm currently using ssmtp to relay to my other hosting providers smtp server, but I will be cancelling that next month - so am looking for the web server to be able to send directly.
[07:54] <jmarsden> Sludge321: OK, then just configure postfix to only listen on the loopback interface, or even hack /etc/postfix/master.cf to not even run the listeners.  Should be doable, if slightly strange.  How will you *receive* email?
[07:56] <Lokin_> So I want to limit the amount of SSH connectinos I can have on My server. I want only 5 people to be able to connect at one time (for now), How should I do this????
[07:57] <Sludge321> jmarsden: I host a few domains, i receive email at one of them (configured with google apps) - but dont want email to be sent through this (as it stores email in the sent items - and some of the emails aren't my business - they are friend's websites).
[07:57] <Lokin_> Anyone....?
[08:01] <jmarsden> Lokin_: I think you could run sshd from xinetd and configure that to limit how many to have at once, but that's pretty ugly.  It seems a odd restriction to want.
[08:02] <Lokin_> I'll explain. It's a piece of crap salvaged some computers from the 90's (early 90's) and made it into one little crap server. Internet isn't exactly server ready either.
[08:03] <Lokin_> make more sense?
[08:06] <jmarsden> OK, but why 5?  Maybe 4 of them are idle... is the issue system load, or network traffic, or what?  Then limit based on the actual resource limit not on a arbirtary number of sessions, I'd think?
[08:07] <Lokin_> jmarsden: so forget that. How can I boot the Latest user via command line?
[08:07] <Lokin_> erg that's even harder
[08:07] <Lokin_> http://pastebin.com/d5cee30a5
[08:07] <Lokin_> this was my only Idea but It failed
[08:09] <jmarsden> Sludge321: to get you started:    apt-get install postfix && cp -p /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.debian /etc/postfix/main.cf && echo inet_interfaces lo >>/etc/postfix/main.cf
[08:13] <jmarsden> Lokin_: I can't figure out what you are attempting there... w shows all users not just SSH sessions, ...
[08:14] <Lokin_> ya but there's no physical or at least I won't be doing much physical.
[08:14] <jmarsden> You could consider a few lines of shell script in .profile that log out a user if there are "too many", or if load average is too high, or whatever
[08:15] <Lokin_> ya but how do I log Someone out?
[08:15] <jmarsden> ? If the code is running in their .profile, you just exit 0 :-)
[08:15] <jmarsden> Exit their login shell.
[08:16] <Lokin_> ... I don't follow? If the code is running in their .profile......
[08:20] <jmarsden> Are you the sysadmin of this server??  If you get every session to execute, say:   [ `users |wc -l` -ge 5 ] && exit 0
[08:20] <jmarsden> at login time, then if there are too many people the session will auto-logout...
[08:21] <Lokin_> k
[08:21] <Lokin_> don;t make me restrict top
[08:22] <jmarsden> So stick that in /etc/profile and ... bingo?  Yes?  Of course this will also lock *you* out under load...
[08:22] <Lokin_> don't*
[08:22] <Lokin_> k.....
[08:22] <Lokin_> So do I need to add it to there silly little template or just cut copy...
[08:24] <jmarsden> Depends if you want the existing stuff in that file to work.  You could put it in a new file under /etc/profile.d/ too... how you manage your server is your choice if you are the sysadmin :-)
[08:25] <Lokin_> Lol. I am. I'm just no admin was bored on a rainy Wednesday so I decided to make a server... yay. but I know very little Linux.
[08:25] <jmarsden> Then do not run a shell server... it will be exploited.
[08:26] <Lokin_> ?
[08:26] <Lokin_> as in how mine is now?
[08:26] <Lokin_> just Ubuntu 8.10 server?
[08:26] <jmarsden> Users will find ways to become root, or use it to attack others, or whatever.  DOn't give random people shell access to a server if you are not 100% sure you know enough to secure it well.
[08:27] <Lokin_> k
[08:28] <jmarsden> Use it to learn.  Use it as a little web server, maybe.  But not shell access, that's (in my opinion) asking for trouble.
[08:28] <Lokin_> K
[08:29] <Lokin_> would It be bad to set it up as a personal FTP server where I can just store files when I need them wherever I am?
[08:29] <jmarsden> No, for you it's fine.  I'd say use SSH and scp/SFTP rather than FTP, for security reasons, but that's fine.
[08:31] <Lokin_> ?
[08:31] <Lokin_> how do I download an app or file via SSH
[08:35] <Lokin_> where is top located?
[08:35] <Lokin_> I want to restrict it
[08:37] <jmarsden> Lokin_: Try    man scp     and also     man sftp     for copying files around over SSH.  Try     which top    to see where top is.
[08:37] <Lokin_> k
[08:40] <jmarsden> Lokin_: You might want to go through  http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/intro-linux.html for a general intro to Linux?
[08:41] <Lokin_> ya I'm on chapter 4
[08:41] <jmarsden> :-) OK.  Well, I'm going to get some sleep... goodnight.
[08:42] <Lokin_> Night
[08:42] <Lokin_> What time zone?
[08:42] <jmarsden> Pacific.  1AM here.
[08:42] <Lokin_> same
[08:42] <Lokin_> cali!
[08:42] <Lokin_> night
[08:44] <Lokin_> jmarsden: Still there? Can't get this working
[09:37] <Moshe234> there's about 200 ppl in here but no one talking
[09:38] <Moshe234> ok then maybe it's my system, i'll go and check it out
[10:58] <T-Hawk> hey... got a bit of a problem here. i've removed the old kernel version from my ubuntu-server, but for some reason linux-ubuntu-modules didn't purge. Now when i try to purge linux-ubuntu-modules it comlains that initrd.img doesn't exists (which isn't that odd) is there any way to remove linux-ubuntu-modules?
[12:52] <mib_wejucg> hi everybody
[12:53] <mib_wejucg> I've just ugraded from hh to ii
[12:53] <mib_wejucg> and now I've no Internet - no ping, no dns, nothing
[12:53] <ivoks> what did you do?
[12:54] <mib_wejucg> do-release-upgrade
[12:54] <ivoks> and rebooted?
[12:54] <mib_wejucg> there was a few config files to merge, nothing related to net
[12:54] <mib_wejucg> yes, twice
[12:54] <ivoks> so, you have access to machine
[12:54] <ivoks> ?
[12:54] <mib_wejucg> yes I have
[12:54] <mib_wejucg> just in front of me
[12:54] <ivoks> ifconfig doesn't show any ip address?
[12:55] <mib_wejucg> no, everything is fine with ifconfig
[12:55] <ivoks> do you have multiple ethernet interfaces on that computer?
[12:55] <mib_wejucg> I mean, /etc/init.d/networking restart gives no error
[12:55] <mib_wejucg> yes, eth0 that is connected to the net, and eth1 to the local network
[12:56] <ivoks> and both aren't working?
[12:56] <mib_wejucg> I'm currently using direct connexion to my ISP modem with a laptop
[12:56] <mib_wejucg> no, only eth0
[12:56] <mib_wejucg> I can ssh from any computer to this router
[12:56] <ivoks> but you can't get out?
[12:56] <mib_wejucg> yes
[12:57] <mib_wejucg> it seems there's a firewall
[12:57] <mib_wejucg> yet I have stopped firehol
[12:57] <mib_wejucg> and ufw
[12:57] <ivoks> iptables is the only right way to check if firewall rules are set
[12:57] <ivoks> iptables -L
[12:58] <mib_wejucg> there's a lot of lines
[12:58] <mib_wejucg> what is the command to remove all iptables rules ?
[12:58] <ivoks> stoping 'firewalls' like firehol and other not-real-firewalls usually means that you are stoping the service
[12:59] <ivoks> but rules are preserved
[12:59] <mib_wejucg> I'll try to flush the rules
[12:59] <ivoks> be careful
[12:59] <ivoks> if your default policy is DROP
[12:59] <mib_wejucg> yet, before the upgrading, firehol was already allowing all traffic from this router
[12:59] <ivoks> you'll kick your self out of the machine
[12:59] <ivoks> so, that's a router?
[13:00] <ivoks> can you access outside network, like google, from it?
[13:00] <mib_wejucg> yes, but it's a personnal router, so it does not matter...
[13:00] <mib_wejucg> no
[13:00] <ivoks> ok
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
[13:01] <mib_wejucg> i can't even ping my dns servers
[13:01] <ivoks> then flush them:
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -F INPUT
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -F OUTPUT
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -F FORWARD
[13:01] <ivoks> and delete all user defined chains:
[13:01] <ivoks> /sbin/iptables -X
[13:02] <mib_wejucg> ok thank you, now I will have to disconnect my laptop to try the internet connexion on my router
[13:02] <mib_wejucg> so I'll disconnect
[13:02] <mib_wejucg> see you
[13:07] <charlax> ok ivoks, thanks for your help, but it didn't change anything
[13:07] <ivoks> why did you diconnect?
[13:07] <ivoks> you said you could connect to your router from local machine, right?
[13:08] <charlax> I have one internet connection, with one modem. I'm currently using directly this ISP-provided modem, with my laptop
[13:09] <charlax> I have a physical access to my router
[13:09] <charlax> my laptop is directly plugged to the modem
[13:09] <charlax> so I unplugged it to plug my router to the modem
[13:09] <ivoks> ok
[13:10] <ivoks> eth0 has an IP?
[13:10] <charlax> yes
[13:10] <charlax> ifconfig is correct, I mean, it is the right configuration
[13:10] <ivoks> what kind of connection is that?
[13:10] <ivoks> plain ethernet?
[13:10] <charlax> DHCP
[13:11] <charlax> yes
[13:11] <ivoks> so, server gets an ip from router
[13:11] <charlax> yes
[13:11] <charlax> my modem works as a router, it is a freebox modem provided by my ISP
[13:11] <ivoks> that means that network is working
[13:12] <charlax> but I'm using a server as a router, let's call it www it will be easier
[13:12] <ivoks> you can't modem from server?
[13:12] <ivoks> you can't ping modem from server?
[13:12] <ivoks> :)
[13:12] <charlax> I'm sorry I'm French - as you may have recognised, so it's not quite easy
[13:13] <ivoks> bien
[13:13] <ivoks> :)
[13:13] <charlax> let' try...
[13:13] <charlax> tu parles un petit peu français ?
[13:13] <ivoks> oui, mes petit peu
[13:13] <charlax> ok I'll disconnect to ping the modem
[13:13] <charlax> :-)
[13:14] <charlax2> ok, I can't even ping the modem
[13:15] <ivoks> that's strange, cause it recieved an ip from modem
[13:15] <charlax2> yet from my laptop I can
[13:15] <charlax2> there seems to be a complete firewall...
[13:15] <ivoks> what network card is on server?
[13:16] <charlax2> eepro 100
[13:16] <charlax2> and brodcom netxtreme gigabit
[13:16] <ivoks> that should work
[13:16] <charlax2> let me check which is eth0
[13:16] <charlax2> is it useful ?
[13:16] <ivoks> both should work
[13:16] <charlax2> yes, because it was working before upgrade...
[13:16] <ivoks> i'd bet on firewall
[13:17] <ivoks> did you flush it?
[13:17] <charlax2> yes
[13:17] <charlax2> when I do "iptables -L"
[13:17] <charlax2> I get
[13:17] <charlax2> Chain INPUT policy accept
[13:17] <ivoks> ok
[13:17] <charlax2> target...
[13:17] <charlax2> Chain FORWARD policy accept
[13:17] <charlax2> so I think it's ok
[13:18] <ivoks> run dmesg | grep eth0
[13:18] <ivoks> and check if something is wrong there
[13:18] <ivoks> try disconnecting the cable
[13:18] <ivoks> and run that command again
[13:18] <ivoks> then connect it back again
[13:19] <charlax2> sorry, Internet is eth1, local eth0
[13:19] <charlax2> everything seems to be fine
[13:19] <charlax2> I'll disconnect to try
[13:21] <charlax2> everything is ok
[13:21] <charlax2> I get a "link up"
[13:21] <charlax2> but no ping...
[13:21] <charlax2> :-
[13:21] <charlax2> that's strange
[13:22] <ivoks> if it's not secret, what's your ouside IP?
[13:22] <ivoks> outside
[13:22] <ivoks> i would scan it
[13:22] <ivoks> hm
[13:22] <ivoks> but i guess that's wouldn't show anything
[13:22] <ivoks> since modem does the routing
[13:23] <charlax2> yes
[13:23] <charlax2> I don't think it will show anything
[13:23] <charlax2> everything is routed
[13:23] <charlax2> you will just scan the modem
[13:24] <ivoks> right
[13:24] <ivoks> you could try setting up static ip on server and laptop
[13:24] <ivoks> and then connect them
[13:24] <ivoks> and see if that works
[13:24] <ivoks> that way you would eliminate router as a problem
[13:25] <charlax2> I don't understand
[13:25] <charlax2> server has the right address, laptop also
[13:25] <ivoks> but you can't access server from laptop
[13:25] <ivoks> cause server is disconnected
[13:25] <charlax2> yes, on my laptop I've got only one ethernet port
[13:26] <ivoks> what's the ip server gets?
[13:26] <ivoks> is it from the same subnet as local network?
[13:27] <charlax2> the right ip, I mean, I have a fixed IP and it is the right one
[13:27] <charlax2> no
[13:27] <ivoks> hm
[13:27] <ivoks> i'm affraid i can't point at the problem
[13:27] <charlax2> ok
[13:28] <charlax2> that's very strange, isn't it ?
[13:28] <ivoks> yes
[13:28] <ivoks> there's somewhere user error, i'm sure
[13:28] <charlax2> do you think it could come from the kernel ?
[13:28] <charlax2> yes, that would be more probable
[13:28] <ivoks> i have lots of servers with broadcom and intel and had non problems
[13:28] <charlax2> ok
[13:29] <charlax2> thanks for your help !
[13:29] <charlax2> I'll try something else
[13:29] <ivoks> np, too bad we didn't solve anything
[13:30] <charlax2> while upgrading, I was modifying the configuration of firehol, dansguardian, squid
[13:30] <charlax2> It could come from this
[13:30] <ivoks> try this
[13:30] <charlax2> I'll try reinstalling firehol
[13:30] <ivoks> chmod -x /etc/init.d/firehol
[13:30] <ivoks> and then reboot
[13:30] <ivoks> firehol is a service, right?
[13:30] <charlax2> yes it is
[13:30] <ivoks> right, disable it and reboot
[13:30] <charlax2> ok
[13:34] <charlax2> I'll disconnect
[13:40] <charlax> now I can ping my modem !
[13:40] <charlax> but I can't ping anything else
[13:40] <ivoks> nice
[13:41] <ivoks> well, modem is a begining :)
[13:41] <charlax> yes but it is on the subnet of eth1
[13:41] <ivoks> i know, but that didn't work before, right?
[13:42] <ivoks> so, after all, it was firewall issue
[13:42] <charlax> yes, but I can't ping anything else
[13:42] <charlax> I've done "route"
[13:42] <ivoks> connect to server and try running
[13:42] <charlax> there is only two routes
[13:42] <ivoks> nslookup www.google.com
[13:42] <ivoks> only two routes?
[13:43] <charlax> yes
[13:43] <charlax> I have no access to dns
[13:43] <charlax> it times out every time
[13:43] <ivoks> which routes?
[13:43] <charlax> one per subnet
[13:43] <ivoks> you should have a lot more than 2
[13:43] <ivoks> i have three per one device
[13:43] <charlax> I did "route"
[13:43] <charlax> you're right
[13:44] <ivoks> you did 'route'? your modem should forward routes to your machine
[13:44] <ivoks> you shouldn't do that by hand
[13:44] <charlax> the command route gave me a table with two lines
[13:44] <ivoks> ah
[13:44] <ivoks> could you write those two lines?
[13:44] <charlax> Yes
[13:45] <ivoks> just first three and last column
[13:45] <charlax> modem subnet ending by 0 - * - 255.255.255.0 - ... - eth1
[13:45] <charlax> 192.168.0.0 - * - 255.255.255.0 - ... - eth0
[13:46] <ivoks> *?
[13:46] <charlax> that's it, yes
[13:46] <ivoks> no 0.0.0.0?
[13:46] <charlax> no
[13:46] <ivoks> it should be:
[13:46] <ivoks> x.x.x.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 ............ eth1
[13:47] <charlax> I don't have such line
[13:47] <ivoks> 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 ............ eth0
[13:47] <ivoks> +
[13:47] <ivoks> 0.0.0.0 [modem_IP] ........ eth1
[13:47] <ivoks> run this on your server:
[13:47] <ivoks> route add default gw <ip of modem>
[13:48] <charlax> ok, I'll disconnect now
[13:49] <charlax> I've disconnected too quickly
[13:49] <charlax> could you retype the command please ?
[13:49] <ivoks> route add default gw <ip of modem>
[13:49] <charlax> thank !
[13:50] <charlax> wonderful job !
[13:51] <charlax> it is working !
[13:51] <ivoks> of course it is
[13:51] <ivoks> so...
[13:51] <charlax> so no route are initialized
[13:51] <ivoks> and why is that?
[13:51] <ivoks> past your /etc/network/interfaces somewhere
[13:51] <ivoks> masq non-private ips
[13:51] <ivoks> paste.ubuntu.com
[13:52] <ivoks> and copy paste the link here
[13:53] <charlax> http://paste.ubuntu.com/78039/
[13:54] <ivoks> eth1 is dhcp and dhcp doesn't provide default gateway?
[13:54] <ivoks> remove last line from eth0
[13:55] <ivoks> 'gateway 192.168.0.1'
[13:55] <ivoks> and fix broadcast
[13:55] <ivoks> it can't be 192?168.0.255
[13:55] <charlax> sorry I mistyped broadcast, it is right in the file
[13:55] <ivoks> ok
[13:56] <ivoks> your modem is broken if it doesn't send 'gateway' to a client
[13:56] <ivoks> but, since your laptop works...
[13:56] <charlax> yes...
[13:56] <charlax> how do I verify that my modem is sending the gateway ?
[13:56] <charlax> with ifconfig ?
[13:56] <ivoks> no
[13:57] <ivoks> syslog?
[13:58] <ivoks> anyway, i have to go now
[13:58] <charlax> ok
[13:58] <charlax> thank you very much ivoks
[13:58] <ivoks> np
[13:59] <ivoks> check if you aren't touching network with some other services or tools
[13:59] <ivoks> and remove all wanabe-firewalls
[13:59] <ivoks> stick with iptables and ufw
[14:00] <charlax> ok
[14:00] <ivoks> bye
[14:31] <LMJ> Got a nasty error with my 2 md devices :  EXT2-fs warning (device md0): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2       I've fsck'ed them several time but it still not good. What can I do please ?
[15:12] <stas> hi guys
[15:12] <stas> can sombody help me format a hdd using ufs on ubuntu?
[15:48] <andol> stas: If I'm not totaly misstaking, Linux can read but not write ufs.
[15:49] <stas> andol: I found ufsutils and libbsd0 on launchpad
[15:49] <stas> but those will be included only in jaunty release
[15:49] <stas> so far those are totally broken
[15:50] <stas> I mean, mkfs.ufs /dev/xxx doesn't understand linux device naming
[15:50] <andol> stas: Ok

[15:50] <stas> sad... :(
