[00:01] zul: is there a reason why mysql-5.0 is not based on the debian package? mysql-5.0.75 is already available from the unstable repository [00:13] Is there a way to restore postconf back to default? [00:17] mathiaz: checkout the REPORT for the merge [00:22] zul: http://merges.ubuntu.com/m/mysql-dfsg-5.0/REPORT? there is one conflict in one patch. [00:22] mathiaz: ergh [00:22] not when I looked at it [00:38] Is it just me or is virt-manager crippled? [00:42] Just you [00:42] :) [00:48] sigh [00:53] lukehasnoname: What is wrong? Did a dog eat your cat? [00:56] FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU [00:56] kvm disabled in bios [00:56] that is better than a more severe problem [00:57] Pretty annoying if it's at a data centre though :) [00:57] true [00:59] is it bad that I have to jiggle my PCI NIC for Ubuntu to get past the "Configuring Network devices" process? [01:00] The card doesn't line up right with the back panel so I can't screw it in. [01:01] and virt-manager has no option for doing any sort of managing of remote virtual hosts [01:01] lukehasnoname: No, that's pretty standard for cheap hardware ;-) [01:02] lukehasnoname: Remote virtual hosts are supported with virt-manager. [01:02] ... [01:03] I have my server, with kvm running and installed. I have my laptop, which is connected to the server with virt-manager over ssh [01:03] I have no options showing in the GUI on doing anything. [01:05] lukehasnoname: File -> Open Connection [01:05] done [01:06] I'm connected [01:07] lukehasnoname: Your sense of humour needs a little tweaking my son. [01:07] ... [01:07] I'll effing screenshot it [01:08] I hit file > open connection. I connect via ssh to the IP of my server [01:08] with the root password [01:08] root is in the libvirtd group [01:08] then I see the connection as 'active' in the main window [01:08] Now [01:08] From there, where should I see things to manage/create VMs on that host? [01:09] unless I'm mistaking how VMM works [01:10] ... because I'm connecting to a physical machine expecting to be able to create, delete, shutdown, etc. all the VMs on that machine.

[02:03] Any idea why with postfix when I run telnet localhost smtp -> connects ehlo example.com nothing happens? [02:10] hellooooo, anybody here who can i answer a simple question about udeb files? [02:11] !ask [02:11] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:12] thanks Kamping_Kaiser but i've been asking this particular question all day and no one seems to know [02:13] so here goes, i've got a udeb that for some reason is not in the server install tree. it's partman-auto-raid. all i need to do is make d-i recognize it. that's it. seems to be the most difficult task, and it's looking like i may actually have to build a whole cd for it [02:14] joe-mac, not tried preseeding myself, but have you checked the debian install guide? iirc it contains a section on preseeding [02:14] yes, i spent the better part of day with it [02:14] my preseed file is absolutely fine [02:15] the problem is that ubuntu for some unknown reason does not include partman-auto-raid, but has EVERY other partman-auto* udeb, oh and also references partman-auto-raid in the docs [02:15] it's like some kind of cruel joke [02:16] joe-mac, sounds like something worth filing a bug on, it may have been omitted by mistake [02:16] so, all i need to do afaict is get d-i to see the partman-auto-raid udeb whichc i have downloaded from launchpad [02:16] Kamping_Kaiser: I'd agree however I found a post that seemed to indicate it was also missing in feisty, and it is in the 'universe' tree so idk maybe there is a reason they leave it out [02:17] joe-mac, that sounds like the reason then. when you said its meantioned in the doco, did you mean the wiki, or the offical shipped doco? [02:18] the wiki on preseeding explicitly shows how to use partman-auto-raid [02:18] i am on my home box now, but i have it bookmarked at work, let me see if i can google it [02:19] this might be it, this is a text only vt100 so bare with me, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html [02:23] joe-mac, could be a bug in the doco. (I wouldnt like to say it is until its confirmed thats the link though) [02:25] so yea if you go to that link [02:25] then click next like twice, you'll be able to see the section on partitioning with raid [02:26] i'd really like to be able to just add a udeb in the pool and add it in the Packages file, i mean rebuilding a whole cd tree for one package seems ridiculous [02:27] I'm sure theres other ways to get the package in, I just cant remember them [02:28] i tried doing like a preseed/early_command or something like that, and have it run apt-install partman-auto-raid, but it didn't work, and i really didn't expect it to since it's a .udeb anyways, just shooting in the dark [03:12] is it possible to control Vmware ESXi from Ubuntu? ie. Uploading a virtual machine (created from vmbuilder), then start it? === martin__ is now known as _Cid [04:12] <_Cid> anyone here good with Sieve scripts? - been trying to get it to act on spam rating ...I fail :/ [04:40] hello people, anyone have successfully configured virtualbox with host interface in 8.10? [04:41] the only thing is stopping me is that the system insists in giving an ipv6 address to the tap0 device [04:42] and must be addressless === kraut_ is now known as kraut [05:05] mlopezqc: It worked for me following the info at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Networking on 8.10 (amd64) [05:48] Heya guys. [05:48] Quick question.. [05:49] Lately I've noticed twice now that my ethernet has essentially dropped out on one machine. No ping, no resolv nothing. Light stays on and everything else seems to work fine though.. [05:50] restarting networking of manually ifdown/ifup doesn't seem to fix it but a reboot does. [05:50] Any ideas on where I should be looking? Nothing in /var/log/messages of interest. [05:51] could potentially be the driver for the card, or the card's hardware [05:51] rebooting would reinitialise the hardware, firmware, and software [05:52] Ahh of course. [05:52] I hadn't though about that.. [05:52] Hmm, you think that would show up in the kernel log or some such? [05:52] yeah it's not particularly helpful, I know [05:53] Well it's another avenue to look into cause I was stumped. [07:58] I need to setup LTSP for my home laptop to boot ubuntu [08:18] hey people, for my understanding: the use of snort (or any other IDS) is purely so you can watch the logs and see when someone tries to break in? [08:18] I mean, the doesn't prevent anything does it? [08:19] SmokeyD: How you use it is up to you; you could easily set things up to actively reset TCP streams that snort says are bad, in real time, for example... [08:19] jmarsden: ok, that sounds more interesting [08:20] jmarsden: are there any recommended setups for snort? I have set it up loggin to mysql and wathcing the logs with BASE, but I would rather have snort so some preventive stuff [08:21] <_ruben> IDS = detection; IPS = prevention; the I and S remain the same [08:21] :) [08:21] <_ruben> snort can do IPS as well i think, no experience with it though [08:21] Have you fully tweaked is to make sure you get zero false positives from it? Otherwise, reacting to alerts could be... embarrassing -- you'd be killing of real traffic from real customers. [08:21] s/is/it/ [08:21] jmarsden that is true [08:21] so you recommend running snort only on IDS, and when sure that no false positives are present, turn to IPS [08:22] do many users use snort as IDS only? Or also IPS? [08:23] <_ruben> we used to use logsnorter (snort clone which uses syslog as input instead of the actual traffic), but when our network increased it became too large to handle [08:24] SmokeyD: You may want to read the Snort docs... including the Snort FAQ, which has a question about generating iptables rules based on alerts... http://www.snort.org/docs/faq/3Q06/node102.html [08:25] jmarsden, thanks [08:52] moin [09:13] wow, here are some interesting articles: http://www.freeos.com/projdetails/2/13/ [10:27] hey people. Would it be wise to chattr +a my syslog auth.log and messages log files? Or would that break logrotate? [10:27] <_ruben> why would you want that ? [10:27] <_ruben> especially auth.log can hold sensitive info [10:29] _ruben: that is why. I only want to enable appending to the log, not removing files. [10:30] To prevent people who shouldn't be there from removing log entries [10:30] I am not talking about chmod but chattr. [10:37] hi [10:43] <_ruben> SmokeyD1: you shouldnt be writing to those files manually [10:43] <_ruben> those are written to by syslogd [10:47] <_ruben> and either way, logrotate would most likely kill the attrib on next run [10:56] _ruben: I know I shouldn't be writing to those logs manually [10:56] that was not my question [10:57] I am concerned that a hacker who gains access to my system will erase the log entries before leaving [10:57] one way to make that harder is to chattr +a the logfile so you can only append to the file, not delete from it [10:57] I am wondering though if that would cause any unforseen problems [10:58] for instance with logrotate indeed [11:02] hi. i have a Dlink network card with driver, but i don't know how to compile the driver [11:02] SmokeyD1: can't you just use remote logging? [11:02] i'm using Ubuntu 8.04 [11:03] lapo: hmm, maybe a better idea indeed. [11:04] SmokeyD1: I think it will brake logrotate, you should use prerotate/postrotate scripts to set/unset a attribute [11:05] lapo: thanks. [11:05] SmokeyD1: I don't see it as a big security improvement [11:05] hmm, I was thinking the same. Since logrotate can do chattr -a, why couldn't a hacker [11:06] indeed [11:10] <_ruben> if you care about your logfiles, remote logs are pretty much the only decent solution [11:10] <_ruben> then again, if the hacker has root, he can disable the remote logging as well .. though you'd still have the logs upto that point in time [11:10] SmokeyD1: a good paranoid solution would be to log on the serial port [11:11] lapo: :) yeah. But that is impossible for me :) I am running a virtual machine somewhere else [11:12] SmokeyD1: then it's easier, put up another vm which does logging only, you won't even need cables :-) === rascov_ is now known as rascov [13:07] hey people. Is there any reason why /var/lib/php5 should be world writable [13:09] it has the permissions drwx-wx-wt 2 root root [13:11] oh yes, mine too, not sure why that is... [13:11] it looks like it's all session temporary files [13:12] wjlroe: yeah so world writable would mean that any user could do stuff to sessions [13:12] isn't that a security issue? [13:12] no, because a normal user can create files in there, but not read them [13:12] that is true [13:12] i mean, it can't read files already in there [13:13] i suppose it avoids permission problems as to what user apache/php is running under [13:13] yeah ok [13:13] so if I set up my apache correctly (add users apache is running under to www-data) I could set group owner to www-data and chmod to 664 [13:14] in theory, yes, there are also some cron files dealing with cleaning up session, you might want to check they will be ok still [13:15] but i think they run as root so shouldn't be a problem [13:15] cool. I might do that, allthough it's not really necessary [13:54] hey people. Is it wise to comment out rules in /etc/snort/rules files? I keep getting MS-SQL Worm propagation attempts for instance, but I don't run MS-SQL server so I don't care about them [13:55] would it be safe to comment it out? [14:02] man... I just setup a new vm with the newest vitualbox. They have made networking much easier than before! Finally! [14:02] virtualbox 2.1 is great indeed!

When i do sudo apt-get remove perl, it wants to free up 181 mb , and one of the packages that it wants to remove is apache2 [15:48] <_Cid> auch ... [15:49] <_Cid> I would think it would not delete any of your conf files though (or do backup) so maybe remove it ...then re-apply apache2? [15:49] i cant remove apache 2 lol [15:50] it wants to remove mysql server too lol [15:50] in the list of packages [15:50] <_Cid> hehe, pretty intrusive ... [15:51] 182 mg freed? my system is like 320 meg total lol [15:51] <_Cid> hehehe [15:51] <_Cid> can you do a install of perl --force? [15:51] <_Cid> the old version ...I wonder if apt-get would replace it then [15:52] <_Cid> or look at 'dpkg --force-help' [15:52] _Cid, http://pastebin.com/m64cf5ec5 [15:52] <_Cid> you can uninstall a package, forcefully - without dependencies [15:53] <_Cid> dpkg -r --force-all perl ..I would think [15:53] i need to know for sure i cant screw this up lol [15:54] <_Cid> dont you have some silly little package installed you dont need you could practise on (something that got dependencies) [16:17] _Cid, can you please tell me how to do this ? [16:18] <_Cid> the perl thingy? [16:19] <_Cid> dpkg -r --force-all perl would be how to get rid of the package without the dependencies ....but I really do not know the consequences ( in terms of, will anything be damaged) - do you really need an old version of perl that bad? :-) [16:20] _Cid, yes cause the other thing that i'm trying to install only works with the older 1 [16:21] <_Cid> well.... hopefully all the other packages just need perl ..and not perl 5.10 ...I would 'dpkg -r --force-all perl ; and hope everything keeps working ;-) [16:28] _Cid, after doing dpkg -r --force-all perl , i guess it uninstalled but then i tried perl -version it sill shows its isntalled and version 5.10 [16:29] orudie: how are you uninstalling [16:29] unless you do apt-get autoremove apache2 [16:29] mysql should be left alone [16:29] but then again ive been wrong [16:29] what does this command do dpkg -r --force-all perl ? [16:30] removes perl without dependencies ? [16:30] <_Cid> you should double check your self in the man files or so - but that is how I read it [16:30] _Cid, ok i ran the dpkg -r --force-all perl command [16:31] <_Cid> cool, try to install your new (or old) version of perl now [16:31] _Cid, sudp apt-get install perl 5.8 ? [16:32] <_Cid> the deb repositories keep the latest version..we will need to look in archives or so [16:33] <_Cid> I thought you already had it installed [16:33] <_Cid> I mean, downlaoded [16:33] <_Cid> lets have a look [16:33] ok :) [16:34] <_Cid> whats this package that requires 5.8 btw? [16:34] its called hlstatsx [16:35] stats system for a game server [16:35] <_Cid> weird that it cannot run on perl 5.10 [16:36] <_Cid> so, it looks like fiesty came with 5.8 - what ubuntu are you running on? [16:36] this is what their developer replied http://www.hlxcommunity.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=223 [16:37] <_Cid> You can remove the -CSDA from the first line in hlstats.pl to get it mostly working, but there will be situations that will cause the daemon to crash. not an option? :-) [16:37] geeze, this place is packed :-) [16:37] why do i want it to crash ?

[16:39] ScottK: an educational one that's PHP and uses either MySQL or PostgreSQL [16:39] _Cid, should i try to reinstall it by sudo apt-get install perl ? [16:39] <_Cid> orudie: no idea what he means with some crashing, heh - and no idea how soon his 1.5 will come out .... I think your best bet is to add the backport deb file to your apt, and install via that - know how to do that? [16:40] _Cid, nope lol [16:40] ScottK: we have packages for it, but there's some bugs and I'd like more of a server person's view [16:41] _Cid, maybe i should try it with perl 5.10 and remove the -CSDA ? [16:41] <_Cid> orudie: I think it might be easier [16:41] <_Cid> orudie: then you dont have to deal with all the backport stuff [16:41] so should i do , sudo apt-get install perl ? [16:41] LaserJock: I suspect that zul would probably be your man for at least MySQL stuff.

Who knows, read the logs :) [18:50] Dns is fine or else i wouldnt be browing the net [18:51] Hostname: sserver1 - OS: Linux 2.6.27-9-generic/i686 - CPU: 2 x Intel(R) Xeon(TM) (3400.072 MHz) - Processes: 149 - Uptime: 7d 10h 47m - Load Average: 0.25 - Memory Usage: 458.81MB/2023.76MB (22.67%) - Disk Usage: 1870.05GB/6088.28GB (30.72%) [18:51] thats the system its one [18:51] <_Cid> not true ... if it waits for 2 timeouts before finding a good one fx, that would work - but slow everything down [18:51] No, it could be blocking traffic to one server and you then wait for a while and then retry to a different one, or it could be allowing UDP DNS but not TCP DNS, or ... [18:51] ok so what ports would that be? [18:52] port 53 is allowed for all clients [18:52] Doonz: look at the logs to see what is happening [18:52] Doonz: Do not guess, read the logs... really. [18:52] <_Cid> how is browsing from the actual box, snappy or sluggish? [18:52] as snappy as it was prior to this [18:52] i want to create an ssh tunnel from eth2 to the outside world and allow anyone from eth0 to connect through it, any ideas? [18:53] where would the logs be kept? [18:53] Doonz: even more reason to dig into your logs further to see what may be getting blocked or otherwise slowing you down [18:53] <_Cid> Doonz: DNS could be ok then - I am going to echo what everyone else already said ..search your log files for suspicious behaviour .... if you think its the firewall, you could perhaps try to act as a router without the firewall to isolate the issue? [18:53] <_Cid> !log [18:54] <_Cid> darn :P check /var/log [18:54] i thouthg of that but when i turn off the firewall no internet works [18:54] Doonz: so you need to enable NAT only...but don't bother...dig into the logs see what is happening and that will probably guide you where you need to go [18:54] hmm nothing in the log directory from firestarter [18:55] Doonz: There is an Events page in its GUI that should show everything it blocks, and you can load/import the stuff from its logs, probably from /var/log/messages [18:56] Hehe i secured my box and disabled remote admin from the outside world [18:56] You can't ssh to it? [18:57] im ssh into atm [18:57] but i cant see the gui [18:57] Then you can run X apps over the SSH link... right? [18:57] oh really [18:57] <_Cid> if you dont know which log to look into ... checking date stamps to see recent entrides is a good start ....and then use tail on the files to see what is happening [18:57] * Doonz is a linux newbie [18:57] <_Cid> tail -f if youw ant it to keep updating [18:58] <_Cid> you can ignore all log files ending on .gz btw ...they are older - part of the log rotation [18:58] yeah [18:58] im curious about this xapp over ssh [19:00] Doonz: x apps over internet are so laggy you will wich for cli back [19:00] *wish [19:00] I'm going crazy trying to setup Bugzilla3 on my Intrepid Server. I've installed via apt and set all the passwords per this guide http://www.hacksawlabs.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=55:install-bugzilla-on-ubuntu-810&catid=36:system-administration&Itemid=53 yet i get 404 when going to http://192.168.1.108/bugzilla3? [19:01] oh ok [19:01] Doonz: You can learn where the logs are, or you can use X over SSH... your call :) [19:02] I'd strongly suspect they are in /var/log/messages [19:03] genii: Doonz has a 10mbps link, so X at 10Mbps should be sane enough... [19:07] its actually 25 [19:07] so how would i get x to work over ssh [19:09] hrmms say i got an .ovpn, .crt .key file and installed openvpn where would i put the files to get it all to work? [19:10] Doonz: At any rate, down and dirty: in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: X11Forwarding yes then restart sshd server: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart then when login remote, use switch: -X (I like also -v and -C) to start an X app: xterm & appname [19:55] kirkland: as soon as finished pushing, lp:~nijaba/screen-profiles/windows has the goodies you wanted... [19:56] nijaba: wicked! [19:56] nijaba: i just added load average, and memory info to the status bar :-) [19:56] nijaba: loadavg from mdeslaur [19:56] \o/ [20:06] kirkland: whenever the push ends you'll have: [20:06] 1/ a way to dismiss the help window [20:07] 2/ a way to enable disable default screen [20:07] 3/ create new screen allows to add to defaults [20:07] * nijaba hopes that will please jdstrand [20:08] nijaba: sounds fantastic :) [20:08] nijaba: outstanding! [20:09] * nijaba wonders how long the push will take at 300B/s [20:09] * nijaba only has 30 min of batery left :( [20:43] nijaba: cool, i'm merging now [20:44] kirkland: what? but it looks like my push is not complete... is it? [20:44] nijaba: oh ... [20:44] nijaba: you're right [20:44] nijaba: i was "attempting" to do the merge [20:44] nijaba: i just did a push, very fast for me [20:44] kirkland: I may have to wait til I am on a normal network [20:45] nijaba: can you pastebin the bzr diff? [20:45] nijaba: i can try and apply it manually [20:45] nijaba: i'd like to push a new version to universe [20:45] nijaba: i was waiting to blog about it until the welcome screen was enabled again [20:46] nijaba: like jdstrand, i think many users would be lost with hints as to the wicked-cool shortcuts we've created [20:46] nijaba: and we need welcome/help.txt for that ;-) [20:48] kirkland: ahhh... my battery is dying, you'll have to wait a couple hours :( [20:48] nijaba: i can't wait! [20:48] :-) [20:48] nijaba: j/k [20:48] nijaba: bzr diff | pastebinit [20:54] nijaba: okay, i'm going to upload 1.5 now [20:55] nijaba: ping me here when you can upload your merge (somewhere) [20:55] nijaba: i'm quite interested in it [20:55] nijaba: s/merge/branch/g [20:59] kirkland: eheh, found a power plug [20:59] nijaba: where are you? [20:59] nick58b: somewhere interesting? [21:00] kirkland: traveling to netherland this we [21:01] nijaba: lay off the the wacky cafes there [21:01] or bring us some! [21:02] kirkland: what's the syntax for the bzr diff [21:02] nijaba: bzr diff [21:02] nijaba: or give it two revisions [21:02] bzr -r21 -r 25 [21:02] zul: not going to amsterdam, but to the islands in the north [21:02] nijaba: or something [21:02] or bring us some seeds so we can make umm...rope [21:02] nijaba: pick the last revision before you started making your changes [21:02] nijaba: and then the current one [21:02] nijaba: bzr diff -r21 -r23 [21:03] nijaba: something like that [21:04] nijaba: see my comment to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/screen-profiles/+bug/311443 [21:04] Launchpad bug 311443 in screen-profiles "running applications at startup doesn't work" [Undecided,Confirmed] [21:05] nijaba: you say "is quite easy to fix" ... can you enlighten me? [21:05] kirkland: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/102917/ [21:05] nijaba: cool, thanks, looking now.... [21:07] nijaba: hmm, i just realized ... [21:07] nijaba: ctrl-g in vi is "tell me what line i'm on" ... :-/ [21:08] kirkland: I believed somehow when I read this bug report that we were not passing the $@, but I guess I had been skiing to much at the time [21:08] kirkland: why would you need this when it is written on the bottom right [21:08] nijaba: hmm, not always [21:17] nijaba: are you doing bug triagging while skiing down the slopes? [21:21] kirkland: was finally able to push my branch [21:21] mathiaz: well, evenings are long in december [21:21] nijaba: cool, i'm merging from your diff, it's good [21:22] nijaba: one thing, i'm changing though... [21:22] kirkland: tell me [21:22] nijaba: i'm making a select-screen-windows [21:22] nijaba: i don't think the window selection belongs in select-screen-profile [21:22] nijaba: it's kinda messy there [21:23] kirkland: well, you'd better be sure the cp has occured at least once [21:23] nijaba: oh.... that's seeding that file [21:23] kirkland: else you'll get an ugly error when screen starts [21:24] kirkland: yep, the ~/.screenrc-windows [21:24] nijaba: hmm, in that case, this code needs a conditional around it [21:24] if [ ! -e "$HOME/.screenrc-window" ]; then [21:24] cp "$PROFILE_DIR/$x" "$HOME/.screenrc-window" [21:24] fi [21:24] nijaba: sorry dude [21:24] nijaba: i'm on crack [21:24] kirkland: what condition? if it does not exist, we should always create it [21:24] nijaba: i see it now [21:25] nijaba: :-) [21:25] kirkland: ahh, np ;) [21:25] nijaba: hang on though ... [21:25] nijaba: it copies $x to that every time [21:25] nijaba: that doesn't seem right [21:26] nijaba: for x in $profiles; do .... done [21:26] kirkland: $x? where? [21:26] if [ ! -e "$HOME/.screenrc-window" ]; then [21:26] cp "$PROFILE_DIR/$x" "$HOME/.screenrc-window" [21:26] fi [21:26] nijaba: that can't be right, huh? [21:26] kirkland: huh, no, let me check [21:27] kirkland: uh..... not right at all, been a been quick here [21:28] kirkland: it should just copy /usr/share/screen-profiles/windows/common ONCE [21:29] nijaba: k [21:29] nijaba: i'll fix [21:29] kirkland: thanks... that was bad, sorry [21:29] nijaba: no worries [21:30]
