| wizardslovak | hello people | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| wizardslovak | so is here anyone who can help me with postfix-dovecot ? | 00:23 |
| benc2 | after editing a boot-script, do I need to do something? | 00:24 |
| wizardslovak | restart | 00:25 |
| benc2 | thanks | 00:26 |
| benc2 | and how do I deactivate a boot-script? | 00:26 |
| wizardslovak | that i dont know | 00:27 |
| benc2 | ok | 00:27 |
| wizardslovak | i am newbie in all this | 00:27 |
| storrgie | just formatted, now I dont get any autocomplete in the terminal.... why? | 00:53 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| wizardslovak | how to install SASL? | 01:35 |
| twb | sasl support for what? | 01:40 |
| maek | I copied a vmware image of ubuntu server. it has a new mac address but when It boots up it fails to see eth0? any idea. is there a file some place that tied to the old mac? | 02:53 |
| maek | sorry google | 02:55 |
| jmarsden | maek: Well, you *can* put a mac address into /etc/network/interfaces, but I don't think that is done by default. | 02:57 |
| maek | jmarsden: I read something about /etc/iftab but thats gone | 02:58 |
| maek | ah | 02:59 |
| jmarsden | Maybe grep -ril mac /etc # would find a relevant file? | 03:00 |
| maek | oh, didnt know about recursive grep, thats cool. no more find . | xargs | 03:01 |
| maek | thanks | 03:01 |
| jmarsden | :) No problem. I think that's a GNU grep extension; it's been there for at least a decade or so, maybe longer. | 03:02 |
| maek | haha, ive been living under the Sun | 03:03 |
| jmarsden | That would explain it :) | 03:04 |
| maek | it was in /etc/udev/rules.d/*net.rules | 03:04 |
| maek | it was holding onto the mac from the cloned image | 03:04 |
| jmarsden | Good, I'm glad you found it ... Googling for ubuntu mac address didn't get me much beyond pages explaining you to find out your own mac address... | 03:05 |
| maek | I did "vmware ubuntu copy no network" 3rd hit | 03:05 |
| boredandblogging | dendrobates: ping | 03:06 |
| maek | jmarsden: thanks for the help and the grep -ril :) have a good night | 03:09 |
| jmarsden | No problem. Goodnight. | 03:09 |
| oh_noes | Maybe a long shot ... but anyone know a Supermicro Motherboard (S775) which isn't FakeRAID in Ubuntu Server? | 03:21 |
| twb | ALL raid found on a motherboard is fakeraid | 03:22 |
| twb | And fakeraid is always fakeraid -- it doesn't matter what OS you run. | 03:23 |
| twb | jmarsden: I really hate that rule where it learns MACs | 03:23 |
| twb | It causes me no end of trouble when dealing with bootable removable media | 03:24 |
| oh_noes | (12:22:57 PM) twb: ALL raid found on a motherboard is fakeraid <- that's not entirely true. Maybe for Desktop boards. | 03:25 |
| jmarsden | twb: Isn't there some way to disable the rule generation script that creates those rules? Feels like their should be. | 03:25 |
| oh_noes | My question is, for a Supermicro SERVER board, what RAID chipset should I be looking at that isnt FakeRAID to Ubuntu | 03:25 |
| oh_noes | I have a few IBM x3550's, which work perfectly as proper RAID. Because they are true Hardware RAID, just built on with the board | 03:25 |
| twb | jmarsden: there is, but it's totally obtuse | 03:26 |
| twb | jmarsden: on a modern system, you can't just delete the entry that generates it -- because that's now in /usr | 03:26 |
| twb | jmarsden: instead, you have to make an EMPTY file with the same name in /etc/udev/rules.d | 03:26 |
| oh_noes | Another way to ask my same question, how can I find out if a LSI 1068E Controller will be detected as FakeRAID to ubuntu? | 03:27 |
| jmarsden | Hmmm... this should at least be documented somewhere easy to find... is there a page on wiki.ubuntu.com about it or something similar? | 03:27 |
| twb | oh_noes: I dunno about server boards, but AFAIK the IBM server we got used fakeraid. | 03:29 |
| jmarsden | oh_noes: There might be a way to grep through the kernel sources looking for its PCI ID and see what gets done with it. but that feels... harder than it should be. | 03:29 |
| twb | *I dunno *much* about server boards, I should've said | 03:30 |
| oh_noes | the IBM x3550 we have here installed without an issue as real RAID | 03:32 |
| oh_noes | let me ask in a different way, how do I find a controller (even if its seperate PCIe) that will not be dected as FakeRAID by Ubuntu? | 03:32 |
| twb | oh_noes: how do you know it's real raid? | 03:35 |
| jmarsden | I'm not sure. There is info on that contrioller and Ubuntu and RAID in http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-973912.html | 03:35 |
| oh_noes | twb: because it appears as a single disk to Ubuntu installation. (and it's a $6000 x3550 SAS IBM ServRAID RAID 1 Mirror) | 03:38 |
| twb | oh_noes: that doesn't mean it's hardware raid | 03:38 |
| twb | When fakeraid is actually working, it will appear as a single disk to ubuntu. | 03:39 |
| oh_noes | Then what's the definition of hardware raid | 03:39 |
| twb | It's only the lowest end of fakeraid that doesn't even manage that. | 03:39 |
| twb | oh_noes: no, hardware raid does raid using a coprocessor -- fakeraid does it using the main, general-purpose GPU. | 03:39 |
| jmarsden | oh_noes: That the controller chip does the work rather than pushing it off onto the host CPU | 03:39 |
| twb | s/GPU/CPU/ | 03:39 |
| oh_noes | well.... to tell my truth, my main concern is to have the RAID handled by the Board. So hotswap and instant rebuild is handled by the controller | 03:39 |
| oh_noes | whether IOPS are handled by the CPU isn't my major concern | 03:40 |
| oh_noes | the box we're building, we need the physical hotswap port to work with the controller to rebuild | 03:40 |
| twb | oh_noes: it also means you need to shut down your OS to manage the array | 03:40 |
| oh_noes | there is no array management, we're building predefined boxes (w/ RAID1) then thats it | 03:40 |
| twb | oh_noes: or run binary vendor blobs that will probably break randomly when you perform security updates. | 03:40 |
| oh_noes | theres no changing things etc | 03:40 |
| twb | oh_noes: well, lucky you, I guess... | 03:42 |
| jmarsden | oh_noes: One way to check controllers could be to read the kernel documentation for the various real RAID drivers such as aacraid, they list what controllers they support... | 03:42 |
| twb | FWIW: http://linux-ata.org/faq-sata-raid.html | 03:43 |
| twb | 12:48 <russm> but anyway, grovel through the kernel logs for raid-type controllers is the best answer I've got... | 03:44 |
| oh_noes | twb: ta for the link, jst what i was looking for | 03:46 |
| twb | Looking at this IBM poster here, I guess you are using the "IBM ServeRAID controller". | 03:47 |
| twb | Google implies this is fakeraid | 03:47 |
| twb | Specifically, that it's a rebadged Adaptec HostRAID | 03:48 |
| twb | BTW, as you claim don't need to manage the array... how do you plan to be notified when the array becomes degraded? | 03:50 |
| jmarsden | In case it helps, in the kernel sources Documentation/scsi/aacraid.txt mentions that controller, and aacraid is (I think) a "real" RAID driver, so how fake it is may be somewhat open to interpretation? | 03:51 |
| twb | jmarsden: I suppose the internet could be wrong :-) | 03:51 |
| jmarsden | twb: If aacraid sees the array the way it sees other Adaptec RAID controllers, I'd expect it to handle the degradation notification in the same way too... | 03:53 |
| twb | jmarsden: righto! | 03:53 |
| oh_noes | Hrmm, it looks like the "3ware 8006-2LP" will suit me needs as well. True 2 port SATA Hardware RAID1. | 03:54 |
| oh_noes | how do I find out 100% that its supported as true hardware RAID in Ubuntu? | 03:54 |
| oh_noes | 3ware.com says: "Linux 2.6.x kernel includes a driver for the 8000 series controller" -- doesnt say if its FakeRAID though | 03:55 |
| jmarsden | I don't think many vendors will advertize "our controllers are fakeraid" -- not a good marketing tactic :) | 03:55 |
| twb | I've never seen a vendor mention fakeraid :-) | 03:57 |
| oh_noes | According to http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html, it's real Hardware RAID | 03:57 |
| twb | 3ware traditionally make hardware raid, AFAIK | 03:57 |
| twb | That doesn't mean ALL their stuff is necessarily hardware raid, though... | 03:58 |
| oh_noes | the page i linked above is really helpful, seems to list most controllers and if they are real/fake raid | 03:58 |
| oh_noes | twb: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html#ibm :) | 03:59 |
| jmarsden | I'd say a 3ware controller that Rick Moen says is hardware RAID is *very* likely to be hardware RAID. If you need 100%... you'd have to read the kernel driver sources, I think. | 03:59 |
| twb | jmarsden: nice one | 03:59 |
| twb | If Rick Moen says something, it is probably true | 03:59 |
| twb | To be 100% certain you'd have to visually inspect the board and find the coprocessor, then watch the electrons travel to and from it | 04:00 |
| jmarsden | And it seems "ServeRAID" is a meaningless marketing term for "whatever IBM rebadges", so some are hardware and some are not. So maybe twb's ServRAID is fakeraid and oh_noes' ServeRAID is hardware RAID... | 04:03 |
| twb | Actually I never used my IBM RAID becaue $boss accidentally bought the one without RAID5 support :-/ | 04:04 |
| twb | But it didn't bother me so much, because I love md RAID. | 04:04 |
| TimReichhart | could anybody tell me the code for forwarding emails inside of mysql? | 05:56 |
| niels_ | I just installed Jaunty Server and I had to choose Lilo as a BootLoader, cause GRUB couldn't get installed. Now, if I boot the server all I get are tons of 99 on the screen.Has anyone got an idea what went wrong and how to solve that? | 06:12 |
| twb | niels_: that happens if you try to put /boot inside LVM | 06:15 |
| twb | Or inside RAID5 | 06:15 |
| twb | You're getting 99s on screen because LILO hasn't work, either. | 06:16 |
| niels_ | twb: I haven't configured LVM at all... | 06:17 |
| niels_ | Ahhh...the RAID might be Prob, though | 06:17 |
| niels_ | twb: Thx | 06:17 |
| twb | You must make a separate RAID1 array for /boot | 06:18 |
| niels_ | hmm...I have a Hardware RAID-6 here... | 06:21 |
| twb | There's no such thing as RAID6. | 06:38 |
| jmarsden | twb: Says who? It's defined as RAID5 plus an extra parity drive so it tolerates two simultaneous disk failures, if I remember rightly... | 06:39 |
| twb | jmarsden: no, that's still RAID5. | 06:39 |
| niels_ | twb: well there is - at least you can configure your array in the Adaptec RAID Utility as a RAID-6 | 06:39 |
| twb | But vendors call RAID5 with two parity drives "RAID6" sometimes, in an effort to confuse and annoy me, personally. | 06:39 |
| jmarsden | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID also defines RAID6... another personal attack on you, I assume... | 06:40 |
| twb | Oops, apparently I'm wrong | 06:40 |
| twb | Neevr mind. | 06:40 |
| niels_ | ;-) | 06:41 |
| twb | But I stand by RAID10 being nonsense | 06:41 |
| sammy | okay, just in case I'm missing something: 9.04 shipped with 2.6.28. there's a bug in 2.6.28 that halts my box on boot. its (supposedly!) fixed in 2.6.29. I'd like to install 9.04 onto this box. I should install 8.10, build the 2.6.29 kernel, then do a dist-update to 9.04? if there was a 2.6.29 package, I *could* create a custom install CD. but that seems like much more work | 06:59 |
| sammy | I can't see any other way to get 9.04 installed. I certainly can't use this nice pretty cd I just burned :P btw the bug is with my drive controller, the one I need to use to install 9.04. otherwise I could use some kernel command line magic to keep the offending module from loading, I bet. | 07:01 |
| jmarsden | sammy: Boot from LiveCD, tweak so relevant module does not load, install from there... maybe??? | 07:06 |
| tv7497 | guys is there a way to monitor what files are uploaded and download from my server well i have a lamp and openssh server , well most of my friends use filezilla sftp protocol to access my server and download files is it possible to monitor these transaction? i use jaunty on a 64bit system | 07:54 |
| tv7497 | guys anyone ? | 07:56 |
| niels_ | how ill I get rid of Grub not being installed on my system. It fails with the error code 1. What else is seen on the tty is that ext2fs and ext3fs wont be found...what an unreal suprise | 07:57 |
| niels_ | If I would finish the install without having grub installed how will I boot the server? | 07:57 |
| niels_ | LILO isn't an alternate choice as LILO has got major probs, as far as I know, with RAID systems | 07:58 |
| jmarsden | tv7497: Try turning up the logging level of your sshd? man 5 sshd_config | 08:01 |
| tv7497 | jmarsden: how do i do it well i am really new to this | 08:02 |
| jmarsden | niels_: You'll want to figure out why GRUB is failing to install and fix that; as a temporary approach you might be able to boot from some other media, such as a CD or usb stick, but it is going to be awkward. | 08:02 |
| jmarsden | tv7497: Did you read that man page? | 08:03 |
| jmarsden | Type the command man 5 sshd_config and read it... :) | 08:03 |
| tv7497 | jmarsden: thanks :) | 08:03 |
| jmarsden | I'm about to go to bed, I can't handhold you through actually editing the config file, but basically you'll just want to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config appropriately (to set a more verbose logging level) and restart sshd. Then look in the log files under /var/log for the resulting log entries. | 08:04 |
| niels_ | jmarsden: I can't get that far on the server :-( | 08:04 |
| jmarsden | niels_: You can't boot it from a LiveCD and specify root=/dev/whatever to use the hard drive's root partition...? | 08:05 |
| jmarsden | Anyway, I'm off to sleep... goodnight all :) | 08:06 |
| niels_ | cu jmarsden | 08:07 |
| niels_ | have a decent sleep, though and thaks again | 08:08 |
| niels_ | thats kinda weird now: If I say stop the installation without having a bootloader installed I'm getting told that the partioning setup of the harddrives haven't been made.Well I have made the partitioning of the drives...What's going on here?Anyone an idea? | 08:18 |
| bubba | myphpadmin wouldnt install on my windows box..any advice? | 08:24 |
| niels_ | bubba: what's got phpmyadmin and $$$XP to do with ubuntu servers? | 08:26 |
| bubba | i want to administer my ubuntu server using my windows box remotely. Am I doing something wrong? | 08:28 |
| niels_ | bubba: if you would have asked $searchengine you would have come across that Tut http://www.sebastiansulinski.co.uk/web_design_tutorials/tutorial/8/how_to_install_phpmyadmin_on_windows_xp | 08:28 |
| niels_ | does that help? | 08:28 |
| bubba | i will try that but mainly none of my php ext are opening up in my windows browser? | 08:29 |
| niels_ | ask in a Win Forum then, its got nothing do with Ubuntu | 08:30 |
| bubba | thx | 08:30 |
| stanman1 | hi, could anyone help me a bit with rsync? I get read permission errors on some paths (/var/www) | 08:31 |
| stanman1 | do i need to add the rsyncinguser to www-data? | 08:32 |
| tv7497 | jmarsden: well i don't seem getting any thing of that :( well i tried reading logs of what are the last transaction happened from (/var/log/auth.log) but i wasnt able to understand anything , could you help me with any simple kinda of thing that would let me know whats happening in my server and | 08:32 |
| niels_ | stanman1: maybe you should see 1st what the permissions on /var/ww/ are and than you might want to change them... | 08:36 |
| niels_ | stanman1: another thing nice to have,if xou want help, is to tell us what exactly you are doing | 08:36 |
| stanman1 | niels_: am a bit afraid to do so, as i run ispconfig on the machine hosting several shared site | 08:36 |
| stanman1 | i want to move from one machine to another, using openvz containers | 08:37 |
| stanman1 | i can ssh into both boxes and start rsync, but in the end i get some errors | 08:37 |
| tv7497 | niels_: is there a way to monitor what files are uploaded and download from my server well i have a lamp and openssh server , well most of my friends use filezilla sftp protocol to access my server and download files is it possible to monitor these transaction? i use jaunty on a 64bit system | 08:37 |
| stanman1 | should i run rsync as root? | 08:41 |
| niels_ | can't you just use the vzmigrate command? | 08:41 |
| niels_ | vzmigrate --online <user@host> | 08:42 |
| stanman1 | i did the vzdump an moved it all to the new server, all port 80 traffic is running to the new one | 08:42 |
| stanman1 | but to move the Maildirs i need to rsync first before routing mail to the new server | 08:42 |
| niels_ | I guess vzmigrate would've been the better choice, but I'm not sure as I am not quite familiar with OpneVZ | 08:43 |
| niels_ | That might be a good place for your probs, too. At least i would try to find someone there If you want to talk to the OpenVZ users and sometimes developers live, we can usually be found on the #openvz channel on irc.freenode.net. | 08:44 |
| sammy | jmarsden: if youre still around, thats a good suggestion, but the offending module is the ide controller the drive I want to install 9.04 on is connected to :P so disabling it wont help. | 08:44 |
| niels_ | sorry, that i cant give you any better advice | 08:44 |
| stanman1 | no probs niels, thanks for the info anyway. | 08:45 |
| sammy | how would I go about finding how long it should be until 2.6.29 has a package? I used to compile my own kernel for years, but one of the whole reasons of using ubuntu now is so I don't have to :P | 08:45 |
| niels_ | sammy: jmarsden went already to bed :-) | 08:45 |
| sammy | it must already have a package in debian somewhere | 08:45 |
| sammy | sorry niels_, I didn't go through everything I missed. I think I'm just stuck with installing 8.10, compiling the kernel, then doing a dist-upgrade | 08:47 |
| niels_ | No worries ;-) | 08:47 |
| sammy | though maybe the udma66 just doesn't matter that much | 08:47 |
| niels_ | I dont even remember what you are trying or to fix...I ended up with reinstalling Jaunty Server and I hope that he'll now writes the Grub Bootloader into the NBR | 08:48 |
| niels_ | Actually the system is still formatting, well 6TB may take a while ;-) | 08:49 |
| sammy | oh. my second onboard IDE controller's driver is borked in 2.6.28, which means I can't install server 9.04 using udma66 since the first controller only does udmda33 | 08:50 |
| niels_ | Thats unreal...kind of | 08:50 |
| sammy | whats great is 2.6.29 supposedly has it fixed. so I can install 8.10, compile 2.6.29 by hand (or using whatever little CLI scripts or GUI ubuntu has) and then do a dist-upgrade to 9.04 :P | 08:51 |
| sammy | and at this point I might just use the #$^*#* udma33 controller, install 9.04, and wait until the 2.6.29 package reaches jaunty-um... not backports. whatever the 'unless you enable this repository, you wont see this until karmic koala' one is. | 08:52 |
| sammy | maybe I'll get one of my linux newb friends to compile the kernel by hand. if I wanted to do it, I'd stick with gentoo :) | 08:53 |
| sammy | I've done my time learning how to hand compile things. i've earned pre-compiled binaries! though, HA it's a p3, so, I should probably compile my own kernel anyway, for the sake of every bit of free memory | 08:54 |
| sammy | okay I'm just going on by myself now. I'm going to move that drive to the udma3 controller and install 9.04 :) I have two jabber servers, an apache server, asterisk and openldap to migrate. cheers, and have fun waiting for your 6tb to format :P | 08:55 |
| niels_ | sammy: have fun as well | 08:55 |
| niels_ | I might go for a smoke and a coffee | 08:58 |
| sammy | oh a smoke! good idea. | 09:00 |
| niels_ | yep ;-) | 09:01 |

| huats | soren: hey | 09:38 |
| huats | I am currently lookig at the virstinst merge | 09:38 |
| soren | o/ | 09:38 |
| huats | I have noticed that (in the current ubuntu version) you switched from python-support to python-central, any reason ? | 09:39 |
| huats | Do I need to do the same switch, while from my understanding python-support is prefered right now | 09:39 |
| tty | simplexio: what do you mean by that? these php files are already workign under xampp in a windowz box. some of them using mssql_connect and some of them using odbc_connect. and i want to tranfer there file to a linux box. however. although the first (using mssql_connect) work just fine, the latter (usign odbc_connect) dont | 09:40 |
| soren | huats: When I first looked at the package, it didn't use neither python-support nor python-central. I preferred python-central, so I used that. Later, it started using python-support in Debian. | 09:43 |
| soren | huats: Since then, I tried switching to python-support, but the upgrades failed horribly. | 09:43 |
| soren | huats: and I just couldn't be bothered to fix that. | 09:44 |
| huats | soren: ok | 09:45 |
| huats | :) | 09:45 |
| soren | huats: It's because all the upgrade magic is put into the maintainer scripts depending on which of python-{central,support} you're using to build the package, so if you suddenly switch, you need to maintain all of that yourself, which is a major pain. | 09:45 |
| huats | sure | 09:45 |
| huats | soren: so I'll keep using python-central. I just wanted to understand :) | 09:46 |

| Niels_ | To all those who are thinking of getting a new server with an Adaptec5805 -- make sure that the newest Firmware is installed otherwise you may run in real trouble just as like as I just didi | 11:03 |
| \sh | Niels_: who builds servers with adaptec, still? Dell? IBM? | 11:06 |
| Niels_ | \sh, Supermicro | 11:07 |
| dinger1986 | might be worth looking at this as well http://drbl.sourceforge.net/ | 11:07 |
| dinger1986 | sorry wrong place | 11:07 |
| \sh | Niels_: I don't think it's supermicro but some small hardware manufacture who uses supermicro boards... | 11:08 |
| Niels_ | \sh, yes, you're right -- sorry | 11:08 |
| Niels_ | However it's been a pain with that Adaptec and a firmware which was alsmost 1yr old | 11:09 |
| Niels_ | Adaptec had released in these months 3 major Updates | 11:10 |

| twb | Why are universe and multiverse -- unsupported categories! -- in the default sources.list during ubuntu-server installation? | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | twb: because lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of people asked for it. In any case that's all going to be rearranged in the not too distant future | 11:58 |
| cjwatson | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/enabling-additional-components | 11:59 |
| cjwatson | (which was more desktop-focused than server-focused but it's a pain to have separate handling there and I didn't see a particular need) | 11:59 |
| cjwatson | basically the very first thing that every single piece of third-party Ubuntu documentation said was "go and turn on universe and multiverse" | 12:00 |
| twb | cjwatson: I guess I would've preferred it to be a question during install, even though you try to avoid that | 12:00 |
| twb | cjwatson: just from the perspective of Canonical not going insane :-) | 12:00 |
| cjwatson | we don't find that this causes us to go insane | 12:00 |
| twb | That's just want insane people WOULD say | 12:00 |
| cjwatson | people with firm requirements can always preseed it off or whatever | 12:01 |
| twb | Nod. | 12:01 |
| twb | I've another question, which I'll take to -install... | 12:01 |
| cjwatson | but we find that this actually decreases the pressure on us to support absolutely everything just so that it can be available by default | 12:01 |
| \sh | Niels_: depends :) | 12:02 |

| madler | good day everyone ... is there any way apart from compiling myself to get a newer version of samba on a hardy install? I am having massive problems with samba 3.0 and remote subnet domain joins ... and upgrading seems to only be the last thing which I have not checked | 14:32 |
| Sam-I-Am | madler: well... | 14:34 |
| Sam-I-Am | i built a debian package for hardy of samba of 3.3.2 | 14:34 |
| Sam-I-Am | er, of samba 3.3.2 | 14:35 |
| Sam-I-Am | it was the jaunty package, but its backported | 14:35 |
| madler | 3.3.4 is afaik current stable ... but seems new enough to me ... is there a repository for it? | 14:35 |
| Sam-I-Am | no, its sitting on my local machine | 14:36 |
| Sam-I-Am | but if you have a place i can send it to... it also has a few dependencies | 14:36 |
| Sam-I-Am | i'm planning to put a bunch of backports up on my PPA but i havent gotten there yet | 14:37 |
| Sam-I-Am | or if you want i have detailed instructions on building it yourself | 14:38 |
| Sam-I-Am | including building the dependencies | 14:38 |
| madler | Sam-I-Am: that would be much appreciated | 14:39 |
| madler | the build instructions | 14:39 |
| Sam-I-Am | sure... lemmie send them to pastebin | 14:39 |
| Sam-I-Am | (and see how they look first) | 14:39 |
| madler | do you think this would apply to 3.2.11 aswell ... as this seems a bit more tested (at least from the version numbers) | 14:39 |
| Sam-I-Am | well, these instructions use the jaunty package and make it work on hardy... compiling from upstream source you'd need to do a bit more work to make a debian package... however you could just build and install in /usr/local, but that gets messy. | 14:40 |
| madler | hmmm | 14:42 |
| madler | so frustrating | 14:43 |
| madler | yes ... smbldap open connection; check_ntlm_passwd success ... one error which I see quite often is "read_data: read failure for 4 bytes to client 192.168.10.117. Error = Connection reset by peer" ... but this happens on all machines ... I can't pin-point this either | 14:56 |
| madler | I am pulling my hair out meanwhile | 14:56 |
| Sam-I-Am | hmm | 14:57 |
| Sam-I-Am | have you tried a tcpdump on the windows machine to see if the traffic getting sent from samba is making it back? | 14:58 |
| Sam-I-Am | you should see the same traffic on both ends if the connection is clear | 14:58 |

| LeChacal | hello, I am looking at buying an HP workstation/server that has a LSI 8888ELP RAID controller card in it, the HP site doesn't have any Linux drives for it so i think HP is assuming that drives are natively available (HP only support RHE4, RHE5, and Suse Enterprise 11). Now on the LSI site they have Linux drives for the controller but for RHE3/4/5, Suse Ent9/10/11, CentOS 5.2, and Fedora 9. My question is can I get a driver out of one of these that | 15:48 |
| Sam-I-Am | if its open source it should just be in the kernel | 15:48 |
| LeChacal | Sam-I-Am:what do you mean by if its open source it should be in the kernel? | 15:49 |
| Sam-I-Am | if lsi is just releasing its drivers as open source it'll probably be in most kernels | 15:50 |
| Sam-I-Am | have you googled? | 15:50 |
| LeChacal | Sam-I-Am: and are you saying in the server kernel or in the desktop? | 15:50 |
| LeChacal | yes i googled the card with linux behind it and nothing really comes up as people having problems with it or anything but I also dont see anyone else talking about drives for it | 15:50 |
| Sam-I-Am | either one... they're more or less the same driver-wise | 15:50 |
| Sam-I-Am | if you downloaded the redhat driver or .tar.gz, can you figure out the module name? if so, you can see if its in the ubuntu kernel | 15:51 |
| LeChacal | let me look and see if i can find the module name, but the file they provide for the drive is a zip archive with an rmp, img, and tgz in it, and the tgz look like just normal source that i can compile | 15:54 |

| billybigrigger | i just acquired an old pentium box, i haven't had a chance to look inside it yet, but my plans for it are to make a server out of it...right now my only box is dual purposing as a desktop/web/mail/ftp server...what is the best way i can migrate the server side of my current box over to this new server? | 20:39 |
| billybigrigger | or is my only option to just manually reconfigure everything again on the new box? | 20:39 |
| gcleric | billybigrigger: are you dual booting? | 20:40 |

| billybigrigger | gcleric::: no | 20:41 |
| gcleric | if you are you could image the server side with something like dd and restore it to the old box. then using the LiveCD modify the fstab to change the drive it's pointing at to sda. | 20:42 |
| billybigrigger | gcleric::: i just have jaunty desktop installed, but also apache/mysql/php/proftpd packages installed on top | 20:42 |
| billybigrigger | i don't think that will work | 20:42 |
| billybigrigger | hmmm | 20:42 |
| billybigrigger | ill just have to reconfigure i imagine eh? | 20:42 |
| gcleric | then I'd build a new box from scratch and migrate services to the new box. | 20:42 |
| gcleric | just tgz up the data and configs and restore them to the new box | 20:44 |
| gcleric | that is after you install the servives on the new box. | 20:44 |
| gcleric | billybigrigger: once you get your server up and running consider imaging it for backup.... if the size of your data allows it. | 20:46 |

| dinger1986 | or use mondo | 20:47 |
| giovani|work | dinger1986: what advantages does that offer? | 20:48 |
| billybigrigger | gcleric::: thanks | 20:48 |
| billybigrigger | also...i just found the two usb inputs are not working...this box was made in '97 according to the sticker on the back and im wondering if my newer usb dongle for keyboard and mouse are too new for it...now i don't have a ps2 kb/mouse | 20:49 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: no, there's no such thing as "too new" in USB | 20:50 |
| dinger1986 | or remondo makes an image | 20:50 |
| billybigrigger | so is there anyway to do a networked install? probably not eh? like the only thing i plan on doing with this box is hooking up power and wire it... | 20:50 |
| gcleric | giovani|work: unless he's refering to USB 1.1 | 20:50 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: USB 2.0 works with USB 1.x -- however, your mouse/keyboard are likely not USB 2.0 anyway | 20:50 |
| giovani|work | dinger1986: I'm unclear on how that's better than using dd ... mind explaining? | 20:50 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: i thought they were backwards compatible... | 20:50 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: they are, I just said that | 20:51 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: well ill just have to open it up, and see if there's something visibly wrong with the inputs then | 20:51 |
| dinger1986 | none over using dd | 20:51 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: ya, and i said i thought they were, thanks for confirming | 20:51 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: however, a system as old as 97 might not support USB for keyboard input | 20:51 |
| giovani|work | in the bios, etc | 20:51 |
| billybigrigger | ahh | 20:51 |
| dinger1986 | they wont | 20:51 |
| giovani|work | should work with an OS that has drivers, though | 20:51 |
| dinger1986 | do you have anyusb to ps2 adapterS? | 20:52 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: so will i have usb kb/mouse during ubuntu install? or no because the bios won't support it | 20:52 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: I can't say for sure | 20:52 |
| billybigrigger | negative on the usb-ps2 adapter | 20:52 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: any problem with just trying it and rolling with the punches? | 20:52 |
| billybigrigger | fuck, im gonna have to look through a bunch of shit stored away in the storage room, and even then i might not find the old kb/mouse i had...i think i chucked it a long time ago | 20:53 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: nothing wrong with rolling with the punchs | 20:53 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: I said try it ... | 20:53 |
| billybigrigger | s/punchs/punches | 20:53 |
| giovani|work | did you try it first? | 20:53 |
| billybigrigger | IM TRYING! :P | 20:53 |
| giovani|work | trying? it either works ir not | 20:53 |
| giovani|work | or* | 20:53 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: and yes, network-booted installs (PXE) do absolutely work, we do dozens of them a week here | 20:57 |
| giovani|work | so that's an option if you want to set it up | 20:58 |
| billybigrigger | so i can install without a kb/mouse if i HAVE to | 20:58 |
| billybigrigger | nice... | 20:58 |
| giovani|work | but it's probably more work to set that up than it is to find a PS2 keyboard, if in fact the USB keyboard doesn't work | 20:58 |
| billybigrigger | ahh | 20:58 |
| billybigrigger | bummer... | 20:58 |
| giovani|work | I'm not sure who doesn't have a PS2 keyboard | 20:58 |
| dinger1986 | why nt install on another machine then take it across? | 20:59 |
| dinger1986 | and repair network cards etc | 20:59 |
| giovani|work | that's a horrible solution | 20:59 |
| giovani|work | please don't recommend that to users | 20:59 |
| dinger1986 | ok | 21:00 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: so you have or have not tested the usb keyboard in the ubuntu installer? | 21:00 |
| billybigrigger | downloading install cd as we speak | 21:01 |
| billybigrigger | i used to have a ps2 keyboard/mouse but i think its long gone | 21:02 |
| giovani|work | honestly, you should ALWAYS have one | 21:02 |
| giovani|work | USB is a far too complex protocol to rely on for something as simple as a keyboard | 21:02 |
| billybigrigger | well i used to have 3 box's in my comp room so instead of running kb's/mice to all of them i bought a usb kb/mouse with a dongle and they all had usb, and it worked great....now that was years ago and i've clean house a bit and downsized to 1 machine, which was a dumb idea, i should have kept my old server box in the first place | 21:07 |
| billybigrigger | i really don't feel like going through the boxes in my storage room to find that kb though...if i can get it to work some other way i will :P | 21:08 |
| billybigrigger | well i don't know how i can enter bios a set boot to cd | 21:31 |
| billybigrigger | i need a kb | 21:31 |
| billybigrigger | this sucks | 21:31 |
| billybigrigger | giovani|work::: how do i net install? | 21:31 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: it's far more complex than finding a PS2 keyboard, I assure you | 21:34 |
| giovani|work | if you've never done it before ... good luck | 21:34 |
| giovani|work | this look like a relatively complete guide, but I can't vouch for it -- I'd do it without a guide: https://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install | 21:35 |
| giovani|work | looks* | 21:35 |
| giovani|work | you'll want to automate the install | 21:35 |
| giovani|work | so that you don't need a keyboard | 21:35 |

| ewook | billybigrigger: easier to just go with the general kernelbuild. | 22:01 |
| ewook | or build your own. | 22:01 |
| billybigrigger | would i be better off checking out debian lenny? | 22:01 |
| jeiworth | hi guys, i am looking for a decent groupware for a heterogenouus environment (win, mac + linux), so far kolab and perhaps obm sprung to my mind, does anyone here have a recommendation? | 22:02 |
| billybigrigger | ewook::: should i try the general kernel build or try debian? | 22:06 |
| billybigrigger | ewook::: and where can i download find more info on this general kernel build you speak of | 22:07 |
| ewook | billybigrigger: I am talking about the same build that ubuntu uses, you can apt-get it. | 22:08 |
| ewook | debian's standardkernels might be even nicer, but, well. dunno. | 22:08 |
| billybigrigger | oh, your talking about building my own kernel | 22:08 |
| ewook | nah | 22:08 |
| ewook | not really | 22:08 |

| billybigrigger | is there anyway to pass boot options to the install cd before the actual installer? | 22:14 |
| billybigrigger | i got an error saying i couldnt boot the install cd because i needed to update my bios, is there anyway around this? like passing acpi=off | 22:15 |
| giovani|work | billybigrigger: if you couldn't boot the installcd, how did you determine if the USB keyboard didn't work? | 22:24 |
| giovani|work | and yes, you can modify the cd's default boot line | 22:25 |
| giovani|work | edit it | 22:25 |
| billybigrigger | but i get the error right after booting cd.....the isolinux runs for 1 sec and gives me that error | 22:28 |
