| hibby | hey | 02:05 |
|---|---|---|
| hibby | having some non-critical server issues | 02:06 |
| hibby | and was wondering if anyone was around to discuss how I can sort them? | 02:07 |
| ScottK | hibby: Best ask specific questions and see if anyone can answer. | 02:07 |
| hibby | right, well. I've got a system running as a server for providing my flat with files /audio/video. More or less working as a NAS, but I like to use it as a development webserver too, and ssh in from around the world regularly | 02:09 |
| hibby | we ran out of internal drive space, so bought an external drive. I want to be able to access files on it, but in the existing folders, so I've ln -s to the various folders I want on the external drive into the shared folders | 02:10 |
| hibby | I can access the files perfectly through xmbc - im watching heroes that way just now | 02:10 |
| SmokeyD1 | hey people. I am running tripwire on hardy-server in a xen virtual machine. | 02:10 |
| hibby | but my desktop system won't recognise the links as folders | 02:10 |
| SmokeyD1 | I have my tripwire policy running fine | 02:10 |
| SmokeyD1 | tripwire only complains that /proc/12007/fd/4 and /proc/12007/tasks/fd/4 don't exist | 02:11 |
| SmokeyD1 | what are they? Something to do with a floppydisk? | 02:11 |
| hibby | I've tried sharing the external drive too, but that's not working. Any suggestions? | 02:11 |
| SmokeyD1 | which indeed my virtual machine doesn't gave | 02:11 |
| SmokeyD1 | how do I prevent tripwire from checking it? I can't find any references in twpol.txt | 02:12 |
| CppIsWeird | my server has ubuntu server 7.10, all of the sudden recently when i boot it up it does not get an IP from my router, i have to plug in peripherals and ifconfig up down the adapter. Any ideas why? | 04:42 |

| andol | axisys: If there is a new kernel you'll need to reboot. | 14:32 |
| RainCT | Hi | 14:52 |
| RainCT | What do you guys recommend as cPanel alternative? Webmin? | 14:52 |
| ScottK | RainCT: I recommend vim, but ebox is the one generally recommended. | 14:52 |
| RainCT | ScottK: Thanks. Me too (well, not vim, but the command line :)), but I also want to install some more graphical thing.. (Working on a research project for school) | 14:54 |
| ScottK | I've never used it, but ebox is the one you want. | 14:55 |
| axisys | andol: when else do I need to reboot? | 15:01 |
| axisys | andol: i saw libssl upgrade on my laptop asked to restart it | 15:02 |
| ScottK | That's one of the few. If you subscribe to the security announcements they say in them if a reboot is needed. | 15:02 |
| axisys | andol: is there some similar notification thru email or in the terminal ? | 15:02 |
| ScottK | There is a terminalish place to look, but I don't recall it. I mostly just read the security announements. | 15:03 |
| axisys | ScottK: i use apticron to receive alerts when upgrade is necessary .. but a immediate terminal level notification would really help | 15:04 |

| MadChopr | should i use xinetd or something else, that's ubuntu specific? | 15:56 |
| heath|work | How can you reliably swap sata drives if the scsi numbers change on them after reboots? | 16:14 |
| RoyK | heath|work: iirc ubuntu uses UUIDs in /etc/fstab, so it shouldn't matter much | 16:15 |
| heath|work | RoyK, the problem isn't with mounts. The problem is actually trying to write a backup script for removable drives using scsiadd | 16:16 |
| RoyK | ah | 16:16 |
| RoyK | but why should the scsi id/device name change? | 16:16 |
| heath|work | for example If I need to remove a drive I have to issue scsiadd -r 2 0 0 0 | 16:16 |
| heath|work | RoyK, that's what I am trying to figure out. | 16:16 |
| RoyK | 15 | 16:17 |
| RoyK | sorry - can't help, then | 16:17 |
| RoyK | no idea where that '15' came from | 16:17 |
| heath|work | lol... it's cool | 16:17 |
| heath|work | I thought you 15 years old telling me about UUID's | 16:17 |
| RoyK | lol | 16:17 |
| heath|work | I was about to say you need to watch more tv or something | 16:18 |
| RoyK | hehehehehe | 16:18 |
| RoyK | I guess there are 15-year-olds out there that know about UUIDs these days | 16:18 |
| heath|work | scary | 16:19 |
| RoyK | :) | 16:19 |
| RoyK | I guess I was 16 or so when I wrote my first boot loader in assembly | 16:19 |
| heath|work | I didn't really catch an interest in computers till about 18 | 16:22 |
| heath|work | then I was stupid and used winblows for a while till I saw the light | 16:23 |
| RoyK | hehe | 16:23 |
| heath|work | When you setup RAID with mdadm, do you need to manually enter info into the mdadm.conf file, or is everything fine after creating an md dev? | 16:53 |

| RoyK | heath|work: it's written to the md sectors and automatically detected upon boot | 16:56 |
| heath|work | nice... thanks | 16:58 |
| === jussio1 is now known as jussi01 | ||
| RoyK | heath|work: still, the md code is somehow outdated unless you need RAID > 1 | 17:02 |
| RoyK | if you just want mirroring, the LVM code is far more flexible | 17:03 |
| heath|work | what would you suggest? I need raid one here, but raid 10 at home | 17:03 |
| RoyK | I'd suggest using lvm for mirroring | 17:04 |
| RoyK | lvm can do striping as well, so I guess 1+0 should work well | 17:04 |
| * RoyK checks | 17:04 | |
| RoyK | seems if you need raid-1+0, the best would be to setup mdadm mirrors and then span them with lvm | 17:06 |
| heath|work | really, I need to use both? | 17:11 |
| heath|work | I have raid10 up and running with just mdadm at home right now | 17:11 |
| stephank | Hi! I'm trying to set up slapd with tls. So far so good it seems, it finds the certificate and key, a remote host can connect using ldapwhoami. My problem is that phpldapadmin doesn't connect, saying "Could not start TLS." | 17:47 |
| stephank | It looks like I've ended up in a fight with gnutls. It's not picking up my ca cert in /etc/ssl/certs! Does gnutls have a different default location somewhere? | 17:48 |
| stephank | (I got ldapwhoami working by setting TLS_CACERT in /etc/ldap/ldap.conf, but phpldapadmin is not picking this up :( | 17:49 |
| stephank | bah, gnutls is winning... at losing from openssl o_O | 18:04 |
| pioni | can anyone help me with setting up a lvm mirrored disk? | 18:06 |
| toehio | hello | 19:58 |
| toehio | can somebody please explain to me how you should set-up users on a server that has multiple services (games, ftp, web, irc, etc) | 19:59 |
| sommer | toehio: most applications will use system user's by default, so adduser and useradd are good utilities for that | 20:06 |
| toehio | ok | 20:07 |
| toehio | but how about the files for all the servers such as the web server and game server? | 20:07 |
| sommer | toehio: not sure what you mean? | 20:10 |
| toehio | I am running a game server (wolfenstein enemy territory) | 20:10 |
| toehio | and it has lots of files | 20:11 |
| toehio | where should it be installed? | 20:11 |
| sommer | toehio: I usually install third party stuff like that into /opt | 20:11 |
| sommer | toehio: so /opt/wolf or something similar is what I'd do | 20:11 |
| toehio | ok, thank you for you help | 20:12 |
| sommer | toehio: then you can symlink any binaries into /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin | 20:12 |
| sommer | toehio: np | 20:12 |
| toehio | wait | 20:12 |
| toehio | the default installation dir for this game is "/usr/local/games/enemy-territory" | 20:12 |
| toehio | would that be a good place? | 20:12 |
| sommer | toehio: sure, really the best thing with third party apps is to place them somewhere you'll remember | 20:13 |
| toehio | how about starting it? | 20:14 |
| sommer | toehio: I like /opt/ because the path is shorter than /usr/local, but it's really just a preference | 20:14 |
| toehio | what user should i use? | 20:14 |
| toehio | because its not a daemon with its own user | 20:14 |
| sommer | toehio: should work with any user with rights to /usr/local/games/enemy-territory | 20:14 |
| toehio | ok | 20:15 |
| toehio | thank you | 20:15 |
| sommer | welcome | 20:15 |

| jam59 | Hello folks. Just installed Ubuntu server including the LAMP option but can't get Apache2 to parse PHP files. They run from the command line, however. Any ideas? | 22:54 |
| RainCT | jam59: any error message? | 22:56 |
| RainCT | and, just to be sure, you have libapache2-mod-php5 installed? | 22:56 |
| agentk | jam59: Worked out of the box for me w/ 8.04 and 8.10 | 22:57 |
| jam59 | RainCT: The browser tries to download the file with the message: "You have chosen to open [blank] which is a application/x-trash" | 22:57 |
| jam59 | I've run the suggested tests to see if PHP module is installed and it is. | 22:58 |
| Faust-C | jam59: you restarted apache | 22:59 |
| jam59 | Faust-C: I did. | 22:59 |
| jam59 | Any ideas? | 23:02 |
| NCommander | RainCT, I'm VERY VERY VERY scared of doing a openssh backport; if it breaks, we're in the **** | 23:08 |
| RainCT | jam59: how are you trying to access the file? | 23:09 |
| ScottK | NCommander: + about a billion. | 23:09 |
| ScottK | NCommander: BTW, did you see what happened with the unbound backport? | 23:09 |
| RainCT | ohh, it contains ssh-keygen, nice package :P | 23:09 |
| jam59 | RainCT: I'm trying to access it via http and the command line. | 23:10 |
| NCommander | ScottK, no, obviously something broke if your telling me | 23:10 |
| RainCT | jam59: yeah, but which URL? | 23:10 |
| NCommander | Oh | 23:10 |
| NCommander | FTBFS | 23:10 |
| jam59 | RainCT: The default: jamarks.com | 23:10 |
| RainCT | NCommander: it's OK, I'll go the PPA way then | 23:10 |
| ScottK | NCommander: Yeah. Fix committed already. | 23:10 |
| NCommander | SchneeSchwarz, sorry about that | 23:10 |
| NCommander | ... | 23:10 |
| NCommander | damn autocomplete | 23:10 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Right now, index.php is in the default directory for jamarks.com | 23:11 |
| RainCT | jam59: oh, dedicated server? :). did you modify some config file, and if so can you paste it somewhere? | 23:11 |
| RainCT | jam59: http://jamarks.com/index.php - works | 23:12 |
| jam59 | RainCT: No, I didn't modify any config files. I just installed Ubuntu - including the LAMP option - and started using the server. index.html works fine when it's enabled. index.php doesn't. | 23:12 |
| RainCT | jam59: I see a index.php which is working, and the "save.." dialog being showed by index.html | 23:13 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Ok, damn. It's working now. :) | 23:16 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Why do configurations fail UNTIL you ask someone? :) | 23:16 |
| RainCT | hehe | 23:16 |
| RainCT | jam59: oh, that's the magic of computing.. | 23:17 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Thanks for, you know, whatever you did or didn't do, or for allowing me to look foolish. :) | 23:17 |
| RainCT | LOL. Always a pleasure ;P | 23:17 |
| jam59 | RainCT: This is weird, though (and maybe why I thought it wasn't working): jamarks.com/index.php works but jamarks.com (without expressly requesting index.php) doesn't. | 23:19 |
| jam59 | RainCT: index.php should be served if no specific page is requested, shouldn't it? Maybe I need to look at the config file. Isn't that always the default? | 23:19 |
| RainCT | jam59: no, index.html and some other files come before it (perhaps also some default.<something>, not sure if those come before or after index.php) | 23:20 |
| RainCT | jam59: is index.php the only file you have in there? | 23:21 |
| jam59 | RainCT: I just changed index.php to test.php and reinstated index.html | 23:22 |
| jam59 | RainCT: So now, there are those two files: test.php and index.html | 23:22 |
| jam59 | RainCT: And it's not seeing the index.html by default file when you go to jamarks.com | 23:23 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Except it is in another browser (Safari)... Maybe my Firefox browser is hosed... | 23:24 |
| RainCT | jam59: try removing/renaming index.html | 23:25 |
| RainCT | wait, if you renamed index.php nvm | 23:25 |
| jam59 | RainCT: Yeah, it's gotta be the browser. Several other browsers are pulling up the index.html file by default without any problem... | 23:25 |
| jam59 | RainCT: So, again, I look foolish! :) | 23:25 |
| RainCT | w3m works too | 23:26 |
| RainCT | jam59: not you, Firefox looks foolish ^^ | 23:26 |
