rcscompI have a server install I need to get the kernel source for.  I can't do this using the network b/c my NIC doesn't work b/c I need to compile a driver.  How do I get the kernel source?04:45
rcscompI have the install CD available, but don't see a package for it.04:46
geniiHaving some issue trying to bond 3 ppp connections. Do I have to enslave the eth adapters first and issue some pre-up directives like pon eth1 ;pon eth2 ;pon eth3      or so?06:03
genii(where each pon creates a pppX)06:03
geniiWell, that didn't work :)06:24

chrisadamshi guys, are there any hoops you need to jump through when creating user accounts with ssh access with ubuntu server?13:02
chrisadamsI'm trying to create accounts with: useradd test --pasword test13:02
chrisadamswhen then trying to log in with ssh using these credentials13:02
chrisadamsI've also tried listing them the AllowUsers line in a sshd_config file as well, with no luck13:04
chrisadamsis there something really obvious I'm missing here?13:04
geniiGave up on aggregating pppoe connections directly with modem in bridged mode. Opted instead for router mode then just aggregated the ethX ifaces. Too bad it's so problemmatic for the other way though.13:13

yann2https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/332882  <- does that make sense?14:20
uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 332882 in ubuntu "Change Ubuntu-server release schedule" [Undecided,New]14:20
ivoksyann2: no14:21
yann2ivoks > explain :) I must misunderstand the way ubuntu server is being released14:22
ivoksyann2: i don't see what's different than current release cycle, except proposal to move LTS from 2 to 1 year14:22
yann2read again...14:22
yann2I propose to just skip one release out of two14:22
yann2like make just a release per year14:23
yann2and keep one LTS every two years14:23
yann2eventually slightly increasing support (18->24months) - for non LTS14:23
AdamDVNo.14:24
yann2AdamDV > why? you think a 6 months schedule is needed for server?14:25
* Nafallo looks14:26
yann2please comment on the bug - from the people I know very few use non LTS on servers, so I thought if we skipped some of these, we could increase the quality14:26
AdamDVyann2: Yes.14:26
AdamDVI like new security fixes, patches, etc.14:26
ScottKyann2: It would actually take more work to NOT release Ubuntu Server on a 6 month schedule because that's the schedule used by the other Ubuntu variants.14:26
ScottKSo no, I don't think it would help at all.14:27
yann2mh :(14:27
AdamDVyann2: I run 3 corporate servers, and I use intrepid on ALL of them.14:27
markwe (wikimedia) use non-LTS servers as well, and actually selected ubuntu for its quick release cycle14:27
yann2mark > you upgrade the servers every 6 months?14:28
marknot all of them14:28
ivoksi use mostly LTS for servers that don't have any feature requests14:28
markbut some of them, which need up to date packages14:28
Nafalloyann2: I use intrepid on my host to get the latest fixes for KVM/libvirt/whatever14:28
markso we use LTS on servers that don't14:28
yann2I have quite some servers, and (to me) it sounds painful to upgrade so regularly14:28
ivoksbut for some i use latest (even jaunty on one :)14:28
Nafallohardy in the guests14:28
markalso, the support for non-LTS releases is longer than 6 months :)14:28
ivoksyann2: bottom line, your suggestion did't get approval ;)14:29
yann2Nafallo > if they are fixes they should be in hardy too :P14:29
markwe mostly use non-LTS on servers where the whole deployment is automated14:29
ivoksyann2: still, nice try14:29
yann2ivoks > yeah I kind of understood that :)14:29
markso "upgrading" is a matter of a mostly automated reinstall14:29
yann2ivoks > to be fair it comes (mostly) from what happened on ubuntu-eu... the number of important bugs in hardy has been seriously impacting the quality of the service14:30
yann2(and still is)14:30
markI agree that hardy could use some more love14:31
ivoksthat's true14:31
yann2so this was just an attempt to understand how we could improve that for 10.414:31
ivokswe have improve LTS support14:31
ivokss/have/have to/14:31
markand a bit too often the ubuntu support consists just of "fixed in the next release"14:31
ivoksyann2: which bugs are those?14:31
yann2well maybe not the support, but the testing before release?14:31
markwhich is next to useless ;)14:31
ivoksmark: i agree14:31
yann2ivoks > bah, long list. apache, python, apache modules, and kernel issues - and then the universe ones :)14:32
ivokswe should have a rule that LTS bugs can't get 'fixed in LTS+1' status14:32
yann2I didnt know there was such status :D14:33
ivoksunless it's a 'feature bug'14:33
ivoksyann2: testing is really dificult; we can't test every situation14:34
ivoksyann2: we need more people to get involved for bigger scale14:34
markjust off the top of your heads, is this a known bug btw?14:34

markI'll file a bug about it soon then14:36
yann2ivoks > i am managing like 50-70 servers (very lonely sometimes :P) - just trying to reduce my workload as much as possible :)14:36
yann2they use all different packages nearly so I am likely to be hit by pretty much any bug in main :P14:36
ivoksyann2: i have over 100, so i feel your pain :)14:36
yann2but you stay on hardy for the vms right14:36
ivoksfor most of the servers, yes14:37
yann2ivoks > very interested to know how you manage security patches if you have that many :)14:37
ivoksthose are file/mail servers14:37
markhardy seems to have especially bad behaviour when it's under memory pressure14:37
Nafalloyann2: new features as well. and new upstream versions etc...14:37
yann2fair enough anyway :) I guess I'll wait for 10.04.1 :P14:41
yann2whoups.14:42
ivoksyann2: you could also help us make LTS better14:47
ivoksyann2: do some testing14:47
ivoksyann2: after all, i'm sure you want it to be as good as possible14:48
yann2ivoks > believe me I do a lot ;)14:49
yann2ivoks > any news on the fastcgi front btw?14:49
ivoksyann2: great14:49
yann2what's the plan for php6?14:49
ivoksi don't have time to fully implement faster PHP stack for jaunty14:52
ivoksand we are in FF14:52
ivoksbut that could be something to do for koala14:52
yann2sorry I meant for the next LTS, what you were looking at :)14:52
ivoksmission one: complete mail stack for koala14:53
ivoksmission two: acl by default for koala14:54
ivokseverything else is bonus :)14:54
ivoksand i want to help on DIT, so...14:54
ivoksif there would be time for php, great :)14:54
ivoksanyway, yann2, you are welcome to submit any patch14:54
ivoks:)14:54
ivoksor an idea14:54
yann2I guess I am better to put the finger on a problem than to solve it :(14:55
ivoksyann2: that's great too14:55
ivoksyann2: best companies in the world are the best just cause they look at their customers fingers14:56
ivoksand listen to their problems14:56
yann2canonical pretty good at that ;)14:56
ivokswouldn't know; i don't work for canonical :)14:56
yann2some canonical guys coming to oxford on friday to see how we do... not many software vendors do that for us :P14:57
ivoksbut yes, brainstorm is perfect example of communication between users and solution provider14:57
yann2usually they come *before* to sell us their product, and then we never see them again ^^14:57
yann2ivoks > sorry last question: you are working on the apache+php stack in ubuntu?15:00
ivoksyann2: no, but i did have some ideas how to improve it15:00
yann2written down somewhere?15:01
ivoksyann2: atm, apache+php isn't of big intrest for me and my company, so i'm not pushing anything yet :D15:01
yann2and who do you work for? ;)15:01
ivoksyann2: my self :D15:01
yann2:)15:02
yann2funny the first ping you find when searching ivoks on google :)15:02
