| tonyyarusso | I'd like to set up a caching server (DNS, web, other?) just for personal home use. Would I need it to have two NICs, or could it be done with just one? (I'm considering an Eee Box for the task currently.) | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| giovani2 | I don't see why you'd need more than one nic, nope | 00:04 |
| tonyyarusso | Excellent. Wasn't sure if such a thing would need to also be acting as the gateway or some such thing. | 00:06 |
| giovani2 | well, you don't have to make it your gateway | 00:06 |
| giovani2 | you could, but, running a web cache, and a dns cache don't require that, they just require that your user computer's dns be pointed at it, and it have your box as its http proxy | 00:07 |
| tonyyarusso | Any other tricks like that that you can think of to make my internet connection appear faster? | 00:10 |
| giovani2 | uh | 00:10 |
| giovani2 | how fast is your internet connection? | 00:10 |
| tonyyarusso | 12Mbit DSL, iirc. | 00:11 |
| tonyyarusso | Obviously I can't make big downloads faster, but for my everyday stuff every little bit helps. | 00:12 |
| giovani2 | unless you have extremely high latency, it's unlikely you're going to see much gain | 00:13 |
| tonyyarusso | (I'm also partly doing this just to learn how, so I could potentially do similar things on a broader scale later in life.) | 00:14 |

| kriel | Okay; so. The linux installer asked me if I wanted to raid my system; I set it up / to be raid1. For some reason it didn't do a dpkg-reconfigure mdadm during setup (or at least didn't ask those questions.) I did sudo dpkg-reconfigure mdadm after the fact. Halfway through it gave a bunch of "rm: cannot remove md0-: Read-only file system". Should I be worried? | 03:47 |

| Shoopuf | Hello.. Does anyone know how to add the PHP path directory so that any scripts I run can use PHP? I don't know where to add the PATH to | 05:55 |
| ball | If you install php, doesn't it go into your path by default? | 06:04 |
| Shoopuf | Hmm... Well when I type "php" I get an error "-bash: php: command not found" | 06:04 |
| sommer | Shoopuf: you'll want to install the php5-cli package | 06:05 |
| Shoopuf | sommer: ok, apt-getting now :) | 06:05 |
| Shoopuf | sommer, ball: thanks guys, workin like a charm now... had to install php5-cli | 06:16 |
| sommer | welcome | 06:16 |
| Shoopuf | i figured i had to edit some text file and add a path somewhere :/ | 06:17 |

| ziroday | Hi, would anyone know why ssh would be laggy? (I mean just typing in text is slow) | 12:16 |
| acicula | heu busy link? | 12:16 |
| Nafallo | 3G connections do that. | 12:16 |
| ziroday | but its just text, surely even the most basic internet can not lag on that? | 12:17 |
| acicula | well your letter has to go to and from your server first | 12:17 |
| acicula | i think | 12:17 |
| ziroday | any idea on how to speed it up, if it were the connection? | 12:18 |

| Deeps | latency is latency | 12:18 |
| Deeps | ping the server | 12:18 |
| Deeps | 200ms+ ping can make ssh appear 'laggy' | 12:19 |
| Nafallo | no it isn't. it's screen re-draws. | 12:19 |
| ziroday | Deeps: ah right | 12:19 |
| Nafallo | :-P | 12:19 |
| ziroday | eek 2000ms, time to get a better connection methinks | 12:19 |
| Deeps | there you go then | 12:19 |
| Deeps | it's taking 2 second for a simple message to reach the server and get back to you | 12:19 |
| ziroday | Deeps: thanks! | 12:19 |
| Deeps | ssh is an ecrypted bytestream, not just plain text ;) | 12:20 |
| rags | I am trying to add a second nic to my ubuntu server..it get's listed on lspci..but how to give it an interface name like eth1?? | 12:20 |
| Deeps | (so that'll add an additional 5ms or so?) | 12:20 |
| Deeps | rags: ifconfig -a, do you see a new interface there? | 12:20 |
| rags | oh ya...it is eth2 though not eth1 | 12:21 |
| rags | i did only ifconfig previosly tht's y i missed it | 12:21 |
| Deeps | ifconfig only shows interfaces that are marked as 'up' | 12:21 |
| Deeps | ifconfig -a shows all interfaces | 12:21 |
| Deeps | you can change your network interface labels with /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 12:22 |
| Deeps | or rather, not with, but in that file | 12:22 |
| rags | all right...thx..now all I have to do is add it to /etc/network/interfaces file right?? | 12:22 |
| Deeps | yep | 12:22 |
| rags | in the 70-persistent-net.rules( wht a weird name ) there is another device (USB device 0x0bb4:0x0b0c ) which is taking the eth1 name.. any idea wht it is? | 12:25 |
| rags | it says in brackets rndis_host | 12:25 |

| Noble | Hi, is it possible to install firestarter on ubuntu server edition without GUI? | 17:26 |
| acicula | Noble: yeah, you can forward x11 connecions wit ssh, it'll still install a lot of gui libraries and such though | 17:28 |
| pmatulis | Noble: have you tried ufw? | 17:29 |
| uvirtbot | New bug: #343244 in mysql-dfsg-5.0 (main) "package mysql-server-5.0 5.0.67-0ubuntu6 [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.0.list] failed to install/upgrade: subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/343244 | 17:29 |
| Noble | No, is that similar to firestarter? | 17:30 |
| acicula | is there a log parser of sorts that can parse the firewall messages from the syslog? | 17:30 |
| jpds | !ufw | Noble | 17:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ufw | 17:30 |
| jpds | Arg.. | 17:30 |
| acicula | heh | 17:30 |
| acicula | Noble: it's a commandline front end of sorts for the firewall, just like firestarter does | 17:30 |
| pmatulis | ufw comes installed by default on recent releases | 17:31 |
| acicula | but without the gui and the crapload of gui dependencies | 17:31 |
| pmatulis | it's pretty basic. depends what you want to achieve | 17:31 |
| Noble | Ok, sounds nice. Im looking for something to share my connetcion with other computers | 17:31 |
| Noble | I have 2 NICs | 17:31 |
| pmatulis | hmm, not sure it can set up NAT | 17:31 |
| pmatulis | read up though | 17:31 |
| Noble | Ok, I was looking at IPcop, but it seems it cant run all the other servers I want. | 17:32 |
| Noble | So its kinda somthing similar im looking for. | 17:32 |
| Noble | just on top of ubuntu | 17:33 |
| Noble | If I understand this correctly, many firewalls uses iptables to set up everything? | 17:40 |
| Noble | So basicly I can use iptables as well with a bit of reading? | 17:40 |
| acicula | everything uses iptables | 17:40 |
| acicula | well, linux 2.6/2.4 anyway | 17:40 |
| Noble | Would it be very optimistic of me to thinker with it? | 17:41 |
