jshocki'm looking for help with a maildir problem ubuntu server 8.1001:07
pixelmonkeyI would like to switch an old server running Debian over to Ubuntu Server.  I think this is a somewhat significant migration, as it will involve configurations for e-mail, web, DNS, databases, etc., and obviously the versions of all this software will be different.  I was thinking about testing by setting up a local installation of Ubuntu Server under a VM and piecemeal migrating configuration from my Debian server until I get somethi01:14
pixelmonkeyng that matches and that I can use as a 'drop-in' replacement.  Has anyone ever done something like this?  Any tips?01:14

fir3hornI'm trying to set up awstats. I've gotten it all set up, but when I go to access it in my browser, it just has me download the file. I've got perl installed, so I'm at a loss.03:43
fir3hornWhat could be the cause of that issue?03:43
ballWhat URL are you using to access it?03:48
fir3hornI'm using the domain name. I've got it set up so if I go to /awstats/awstats.pl, it should bring it up.03:49
ballHave you told your httpd to interpret perl?03:50
ball(is there a Perl plug-in module for it?03:50
ball)03:50
fir3hornI'm unsure. I don't believe I have.03:51

yaris123456789hey guys i have created my own nameserver on my VPS using cpanel. i want to link www.mycooldomain.com to my new VPS server. what to do ?04:01
balltalk to your domain name provider04:02
yaris123456789well i have added the nameservers with registrar, still www.mycooldomain.com is pointing to the old server not the new VPS04:02
ballWhere do your DNS records live?04:03
yaris123456789i dont know what does that mean04:04
ballyaris123456789: if you want to run your own name server, you need to find that out.04:06
ball...or pay someone to look after it for you.  Perhaps both.04:06
yaris123456789i would pay04:06
yaris123456789right now04:06
yaris123456789if someone could move all of the stuff from my old server to the new04:06
ballokay, that's the quick way to do it then.04:06
ballTalk to the people who sold you your domain name.  They may be able to host your DNS records04:07
ball...you probably won't need a name server on your VPS account.04:07
yaris123456789than which nameserver shall i sue04:11
yaris123456789uae04:11
yaris123456789use04:11
yaris123456789my host did not provide any nameservers04:11
yaris123456789it said i had to use my own04:11
ballYou'll have to find another company to pay then... perhaps your ISP04:12
yaris123456789wait i dont think u get what i mean04:15
yaris123456789i have created a few nameservers, say ns1.mine.net, where mine.net is the domain name i own.04:15
yaris123456789now i want to link, www.somethingcool.com to my vps box, what to do ?04:15

Tim__Reichhartcan somebody tell me why I am getting the SSL :(Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate)05:53
hadsWithout some context probably not. Sounds like an expired certificate.05:58
Tim__Reichhartso how do I get it redued?05:59
hadsNot a lot of idea what you're talking about. If you want to renew a certificate you need to talk to an issuer.06:01

zicadaive got an issue with disk IO. The box only has a single disk (home fileserver). Problem is, when i play a video from it over samba, it will lag if the box does any heavy IO like file copy or unrar and such.19:24
zicadaive tried both the deadline and cfq schedualers19:24
zicadait also hosts some web apps that will lag horribly when local IO stuff like filecopy etc is high19:25
zicadaanyone have any good tips on how to perhaps ionice or renice permanently ?19:26
zicadaor any other sort of tuning that would sort this out19:27
zicadai really dont need unrar and cp/mv etc to be as fast as possible. Much nicer for apache and smb to run at higher pri19:27
zicadai mean, i can ionice -c3 -p$$ the shell i use to cp / unrar etc19:54
zicadabut something more permanent would be nice (no pun intended :D )19:54
