[00:14] <ziggles> hi all, i am having problems using vmbuilder -- "domain is undefined and host has no domain set"  could someone point me in the right direction as to how i define a domain?  thx
[00:17] <agentk> ziggles: What is the command and options you are trying to use?
[00:18] <ziggles> agentk: just following a  tutorial right now, but here is the line:
[00:18] <ziggles> sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite intrepid --flavour virtual --arch i386 -o --libvirt qemu:///system --ip 192.168.0.100
[00:21] <agentk> ziggles: As your specifying an ip address manually you may need to specify the netmask and domain. For now try adding: --hostname YOURHOSTNAME --domain YOUDOMAIN
[00:21] <agentk> ziggles: Also you'll find if you dont specify a hostname too vmbuilder will always call the domain ubuntu and you will have to manually rename it each time.
[00:22] <ziggles> agentk: thanks i will give it a shot, but according to https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html  there are defaults and domain is not required
[00:22] <ziggles> ah i see
[00:23] <ziggles> agentk: It accepted: sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite intrepid --flavour virtual --arch i386 -o --libvirt qemu:///system --ip 192.168.0.100 --hostname HOSTNAME --domain shiz.com
[00:24] <ziggles> (just testing)  :)
[00:25] <agentk> ziggles: Sounds like your on your way now. I have put all my common options into ~/.vmbuilder.cfg and now to create a host use:
[00:26] <agentk> ziggles: sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --hostname <HOSTNAME> --mem <MEM> --dest /svr/shared/libvirt/<HOSTNAME/
[00:26]  * agentk <3 vmbuilder
[00:26] <ziggles> thats so much more pretty :)
[00:27] <ziggles> agentk, looking through the docs it looks like you can up with some pretty hairy/long option strings
[00:27] <ziggles> so that sounds very nice.
[00:28] <ziggles> agentk: one other question.... How do you setup your partitions?  i'm thinking that if i setup another partition or even different drive to house all of the VMs, back up will be a snap (we will only use about 3-4 vms, nothing crazy)
[00:28] <agentk> ziggles: you'll also find the ubuntu / kvm specific help in vmbuilder by using `vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --help` instead of just `vmbuilder --help`
[00:29] <agentk> root 8000 swap 4000
[00:30] <agentk> My vm's are fairly simple. I prefer to keep things consistant and documented.
[00:31] <ziggles> agentk, actually i mean non-vm partitions, like for example your /svr/shared/.....
[00:32] <jmedina> dont forget to send this comments to the documentation proyect, I think is it worth
[00:32] <jmedina> like the hostname/domain and that ~/.vmbuilder.cfg
[00:33] <agentk> jmedina: Yes, I am looking forward to doing that too. Should I send them to the ubuntu-server mailing list
[00:35] <agentk> ziggles: I basically only have /svr/shared as a nfs mountpoint for keeping my vm images. stored on a one of the vm hosts. and thats about the only change I have made.
[00:38] <ziggles> got u
[00:38] <Netham46> "[notice caught SIGWINCH, shutting down gracefully"  I'm getting that in my Apache error log, and nothing works. Anyone know how I can fix this?
[00:39] <ziggles> agentk do these perms look right to you?   this is the newly created HOSTNAME.xml (from my test run) in /etc/libvirt/qemu/
[00:39] <ziggles> -rw------- 1 root root  828 2009-01-16 16:32 HOSTNAME.xml
[00:42] <agentk> ziggles: Yes. Same on my system here too. Security first.
[00:44] <ziggles> agentk: thank you for checking
[00:49] <agentk> ziggles: np
[01:03] <MatBoy> when you setup a dir and make it available for nfs, another server connects to that folder as root... you will have a problem I think?
[01:05] <agentk> MatBoy: only if you use norootsquash
[01:06] <agentk> And nfs shares should be restricted by hostname or ip address in exports and iptables if you want to go that far too
[01:08] <alexb2283> hi again
[01:09] <alexb2283> i'll ask my thing again :P my udev is looking for it's /etc/udev/rules.d directory before dm-crypt asks me for the / password. is there a way to make it wait until after the root partition is decrypted ?
[01:09] <MatBoy> agentk: mhh
[01:09] <MatBoy> can't write in a strange way
[01:15] <PC_Nerd> Hi,  When ubuntu states that the servers are "compatable" does that imply that other servers arent compatable and will not work with ubuntu?
[01:16] <MatBoy> agentk: yep I have them restricted
[01:20] <MatBoy> agentk: I thought root was not able to use from external as it's also not with other things from time to time in ubuntu
[01:34] <agentk> MatBoy: Your are correct. I cant remember what permission I changed, i think i set the folder setuid with group permissions set for root only to be able to access it.
[01:37] <MatBoy> agentk: ok !
[01:39] <MatBoy> agentk: maybe it's easier to use debian for nfs :S
[01:39] <luckyone> anyone know how to set up a streaming media server?
[01:39] <luckyone> I want to be able to stream media, videos as flash, music to my wii
[01:58] <ziggles> agentk: thanks for the help earlier
[01:59] <ziggles> i had to rush out, but wanted to say thanks
[02:24] <agentk> ziggles: Not a prob. I was having the same trouble as you when I started too.
[02:24] <ziggles> agentk: sorry, one more question... do you normally run virsh as root?
[02:24] <ziggles> using sudo was the only way i was able to define
[02:25] <agentk> Nope. As unprivliged user.
[02:25] <ziggles> Really?  when i was doing this as an unpriv user, i got this error: Failed to open file 'HOSTNAME.xml': Permission denied
[02:25] <ziggles> I also double checked that i was added to the correct groups
[02:26] <agentk> add yourself to the libvirtd group and logout and back in
[02:26] <agentk> Hmmm. and make sure your connecting to qemu:///system
[02:27] <agentk> virsh -c qemu:///system start HOSTNAME
[02:28] <ziggles> oh shit, worked
[02:28] <ziggles> :)
[02:28] <ziggles> i also added myself to the KVM group
[02:28] <ziggles> should have tried one thing at a time
[02:30] <hads> Language please :)
[02:31] <ziggles> hads, sorry! sometimes the s word comes out in periods of sheer joy
[02:37] <ziggles> does vmbuilder have a default user/pw when it creates a virtual vm?
[02:38] <agentk> ziggles: default/default
[02:38] <ziggles> agentk: hmmm tried that one, and ubuntu/ubuntu but no luck.   ubuntu/ubuntu is what is listed in the docs
[02:39] <agentk> I added passwd to my first login script and specified --username myname when building
[02:39] <agentk> ziggles: try ubuntu/default
[02:39] <ziggles> nope, lol
[02:40] <ziggles> i can ssh to it... so close :)
[02:40] <agentk> then when i first login i login with password=default and get prompted to change it
[02:41] <agentk> in my ~/.vmbuilder.cfg: user = kbowden\n name = Karl Bowden\n pass = default
[02:43] <agentk> ziggles: maybe you should specify a username and rebuild it
[02:43] <ziggles> agentk, that's a great idea.  I will do so now.
[02:44] <ziggles> its a good thing this server has sata and a quadcore xeon.  my personal PC would be dieing. :)
[02:47] <agentk> ziggles: LOL. I bought 2cpu quadcore amd servers just because my laptop was amd and I wanted to make sure I could migrate the images between my laptop and the servers live.
[02:47] <agentk> and now I dont even use live migration
[02:47] <ziggles> hahaha  that's great.
[02:48] <ziggles> agentk: so, are you using virtualization for your own personal stuff or for biz purposes?
[02:50] <agentk> ziggles: both. A couple of windows and linux vms at work and at home. mainly for application isolation at work. at home for testing and playing around
[02:52] <ziggles> cool
[02:52] <ziggles> agentk: are you happy using kvm?
[02:54] <agentk> More than. It's great for the servers. I still use virtual box for using windows guests for upgrading phone firmware via usb though.
[02:54]  * hads likes KVM
[02:55] <agentk> Just because I know it works and i've never tried it in kvm. Anybody done this with KVM successfully yet?
[02:55]  * agentk high fives hads
[02:55] <hads> :D
[02:57] <agentk> ziggles: home or work use?
[02:58] <ziggles> agentk: well, i lost my job recently, so im working on it @ home lol... but its for a client
[02:58] <ziggles> setting up a few VMs for him to work in
[02:59] <agentk> ziggles: Yip keep your mind learning new things. Life can be an intense expletive at times.
[04:24] <kj-victory> how do I uninstall the gui on Ubuntu server? I installed ubuntu-desktop, but an uninstall of that does not rid me of the gui.
[05:38] <uzair> hey all. quick question in regards to running some windows-only apps w/ a linux server
[05:39] <uzair> is it possible to just have a dedicated client that the server will allow access to somehow for the use of those apps while the linux server takes care of everything else (PDC, mail, etc)
[05:42] <uzair_> sorry back
[05:42] <uzair_> anyone happen to reply to that?

[15:18] <lwizardl> hi
[15:18] <lwizardl> is there anyway to keep my hostname just a local name only? example "compaq" not "compaq.ispname.tld"
[15:24] <maxb> lwizardl: define what you mean by hostname. The output of the 'hostname' command is or should be just the local name
[15:25] <uvirtbot`> New bug: #318179 in apache2 (main) "Please merge apache2(2.2.11-2)(main) from debian unstable(main)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/318179
[15:27] <lwizardl> maxb, ok last time i did a server install and configure the hostname of my server i entered compaq and after the install it seemed to become compaq.gateway.2wire.net
[15:28] <lwizardl> 2wire was used by my ISP (AT&T U-Verse used 2wire modem/router)
[15:30] <maxb> Again, I have to ask: define what you mean by hostname?
[15:31] <lwizardl> when i get the logon prompt its compaq.gateway.2wire.net, inside my hosts file its compaq.gateway.2wire.net
[16:04] <lwizardl> anyone?
[18:10] <dinsdale07> I have a security problem on my server, I find rogue perl processes and I find the following in my apache access log which is unusual.
[18:10] <dinsdale07> http://paste.org/4881  Can someone assist me please in deciphering what's going on?
[18:13] <dinsdale07> the SRC is actually given as 127.0.0.1 which means my server makes these weired requests. Is it possible that it scans other servers for vulnerabilities.
[20:10] <dinsdale07> which is a good channel to attend on freenode to learn about webserver security - people who know about php, perl, apache exploits.
[20:18] <_Cid> dinsdale07:  ther eis a #security
[20:19] <dinsdale07> Thank you very much _Cid
[20:19] <_Cid> dinsdale07:  dont get your hope up though, its pretty inactive :/
[20:20] <dinsdale07> well, you're in it :-)
[20:30] <_Cid> dinsdale07:  hehe
[20:44] <owh> apachelogger, did you just comment on bug #238444? I'm Onno.
[20:44] <uvirtbot`> Launchpad bug 238444 in kdebase-runtime "Index building for initial launch is overly complex" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/238444
[20:46] <apachelogger> owh: I did
[20:46] <apachelogger> aloha
[20:46] <owh> Hiya.
[20:47] <owh> So, I've been thinking about this. Wouldn't it mean that khelpcentre should depend on kubuntu-default-settings?
[20:48] <apachelogger> owh: you get a vanilla KDE without k-d-s, which is pretty much the idea of that package (+ of course it is more maintainable to everything in one place)
[20:49] <owh> apachelogger: I don't understand your point. I just installed task-juggler and got bombarded with index requests from khelpcentre.
[20:49] <apachelogger> owh: when opening taskjuggler itself?
[20:50] <owh> Yup
[20:50] <owh> apachelogger: I was running task-juggler, selected help and all hell broke loose.
[20:50] <apachelogger> hm
[20:50] <owh> I just wanted to RTFM :)
[20:51] <apachelogger> owh: well the design flaw is in upstream khelpcenter and is supressed in kubuntu setups
[20:51] <owh> apachelogger: I'm not running kubuntu, so khelpcentre had never been run.
[20:51] <apachelogger> yeah, figured
[20:51] <apachelogger> I actually consider deactivating the whole indexing upstream because it is only working in 0.1% of setups
[20:52] <owh> apachelogger: So, what happens if a ubuntu user installs k-d-s?
[20:52] <apachelogger> owh: the popup ought to be supressed
[20:52] <owh> apachelogger: So, would there be other side-effects?
[20:53] <apachelogger> nope
[20:53] <apachelogger> doesn't even have extra deps
[20:53] <owh> apachelogger: I'm suspecting that it also changes icons and templates, or does it not?
[20:53] <owh> apachelogger: Or is k-d-s, specifically for khelpcentre only?
[20:53] <apachelogger> that depends if taskjuggler is KDE 3 or KDE 4 ;-)
[20:53] <owh> One mo.
[20:54] <apachelogger> in genearl it is kubuntu branding + kubuntu settings ... less of the former really
[20:54] <owh> Crap, it appears that I installed this when I was running gutsy - since upgraded to intrepid.
[20:54] <owh> Uhm, that should be "freshly installed"
[20:55] <owh> I should try this again - needed to look at task-juggler anyway. BRB
[20:57] <sektor1952> I keep getting a tsig error when I start my dhcp server I have verified the keys
[20:57] <owh> apachelogger: I'm about to install it again and it's installing khelpcentre and khelpcentre4 - does that answer your question?
[20:57] <apachelogger> no
[20:57] <apachelogger> owh: we should move this to #kubuntu-devel
[20:57] <owh> Cool
[21:10] <sektor1952> I can't figure out why I keep getting the error related to the rndckey
[21:23] <Zombie_Gaz> Having trouble getting identd to work... I've tried every package I can find with no luck. At one point (last weekish) oidentd worked on and off (mostly on). Any ideas (I have 113 open).
[21:39] <sektor1952> This is the error I keep getting when I try to start my dhcp server

[21:46] <sektor1952> anubody have any suggestions?
