| jmarsden | billybigrigger: check the MX records for mydomain.com really do point to your mailserver... dig mydomain.com mx | 00:56 |
|---|---|---|
| billybigrigger | yeah it all works | 00:57 |
| billybigrigger | it all worked before, im transfering over servers | 00:57 |
| billybigrigger | trying to setup 192.168.1.100 and 192 | 00:57 |
| billybigrigger | trying to setup 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.103 and then just switch the ip's around on them...but when i switch ips, apache works, and the mailserver won't accept incoming mail | 00:58 |
| fbc-mx | How do I get my nfs shares to show up in the Network browser?? I have them setup already and I can manually mount them with no problems, but other users aren't very savvy. I would like to make them idiot proof. | 00:58 |
| jmarsden | You will need a public IP if you want to get email from hotmail... 192.168.*.* is a private IP range ? | 00:58 |
| fbc-mx | avahi deamon? or something like that? | 00:58 |
| fbc-mx | billybigrigger, or you can load ddclient get a DDNS and put your computer in your routers DMZ. | 01:00 |
| fbc-mx | billybigrigger, it's not the optimal solution.. you'll bounce mail for about an hour once a week when your provider changes your IP, but after it propagates again through DNS you should be good for another week. | 01:01 |
| billybigrigger | i haven't had an ip change for years | 01:03 |
| jmarsden | billybigrigger: So when you swap IPs for the servers, you are also changing the router's NAT settings appropriately? | 01:04 |
| FFForever | can i make openssh check ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and /root/.ssh/authorized_keys for each login? | 01:07 |
| fbc-mx | FFForever, not abosulutely sure, but I think it would be a qustion of adding another pam_module pointing to the other keys file. | 01:09 |
| fbc-mx | How do I get my nfs shares to show up in the Network browser? | 01:09 |
| giovani | FFForever: why would you check root's home dir for keys for other users? | 01:21 |

| giovani | GUIs are not supported here | 01:23 |
| giovani | please go to #ubuntu for that | 01:23 |
| fbc-mx | giovani, so your saying the server does not have to announce the server? It's the desktops responsibility to detect them? | 01:23 |
| giovani | "announce"? | 01:23 |
| fbc-mx | giovani, sorry I menat annouce the service? | 01:24 |
| fbc-mx | giovani, Yeah, Like some kind of broadcast teling everyong one what it is sharing. | 01:24 |
| giovani | nope | 01:24 |
| giovani | that's a windows thing | 01:24 |
| fbc-mx | giovani, aha... ok, so then it's really not a server issue... | 01:24 |
| giovani | ask #ubuntu what you're supposed to do with that tool | 01:25 |

| Nikilos | Hi everyone, I just installed Ubuntu Server on a really old computer of mine, and when it boots up, it gets to the command line just fine, but the text is extremely huge and I can't see what I'm typing. Is there an easy fix to this? | 01:57 |
| Alex_21 | Re installl or fix the resolution on your Monitr\ | 01:58 |
| Alex_21 | Monitor | 01:58 |
| Nikilos | I tried reinstalling and it didn't do anything. How do I fix my resolution? | 01:59 |
| PhotoJim | just a shell login I assume. no GUI running. | 02:01 |
| PhotoJim | if so, weird problem. not seen that. | 02:01 |
| Nikilos | Right, no GUI | 02:01 |
| PhotoJim | my machines that are servers just boot into text mode, like DOS does. they would work on a CGA system. | 02:01 |
| PhotoJim | there are some paramters you can use in grub to force the kernel to boot up in different video modes. I wonder if that's your solution. | 02:03 |
| PhotoJim | I don't know t he details, but googling might help. | 02:03 |
| Nikilos | Alright, I'll try looking around. Thanks. I'll report back with results | 02:04 |
| PhotoJim | please do. | 02:04 |
| PhotoJim | parameters, even | 02:05 |
| PhotoJim | darn netbook keyboard :) | 02:05 |
| Nikilos | Netbooks rock | 02:05 |
| PhotoJim | I love mine, but the keyboard occasionally annoys :) | 02:07 |
| PhotoJim | it's not bad though | 02:07 |
| PhotoJim | everything else about it is great | 02:07 |
| Nikilos | What kind is it? | 02:07 |
| PhotoJim | AA1, 1.5 GB RAM, 160 GB SATA HD | 02:08 |
| PhotoJim | in pretty sapphire blue :) | 02:08 |
| Nikilos | Oooh, that's great | 02:09 |
| PhotoJim | yep | 02:09 |
| PhotoJim | dual boot, XP and Jaunty | 02:09 |
| PhotoJim | I use Jaunty most of the time | 02:09 |
| Alex_21 | Does anyone know why eSpeak is broken in Jaunty? | 02:09 |
| Alex_21 | I run an eSpeak server | 02:09 |
| Nikilos | Be riiiight back | 02:10 |
| PhotoJim | I don't, sorry | 02:11 |
| Nikilos | No idea if that worked...test test | 02:14 |
| Alex_21 | Can you test it in Jaunty? | 02:24 |
| Alex_21 | eSpeak I mean | 02:24 |
| PhotoJim | Nikilos: so did it work? | 02:30 |
| Nikilos | PhotoJim: I'm still in the process of trying to fix it :P | 02:30 |
| Nikilos | Well, I was able to edit my menu.lst file without problems...I think. I can't really tell since I can't see what I'm typing, but hopefully it worked | 02:36 |
| Nikilos | Great, I completely murdered my display settings | 02:40 |
| Nikilos | Would using Xubuntu as a server be practical? | 02:44 |
| PhotoJim | practical but not optimal | 02:56 |
| PhotoJim | why not ssh into it from another system on your network? I think sshd is configured to run by default on ubuntu server | 02:57 |
| Nikilos | Sorry for asking such a dumb question, but how do I do that? | 03:01 |
| PhotoJim | do you have shell access to another machine on your local area network? | 03:03 |
| Nikilos | I'm not sure. How do I check to see if I do? | 03:05 |
| PhotoJim | if they're your machines, you surely have access :) | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | either that, or you can use a Windows machine and get the ssh client PuTTy | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | if you have a Linux machine with a GUI like Gnome or KDE though you can just log in and open a terminal | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | ssh is built-in | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | (essentially) | 03:06 |
| Nikilos | OH, wow, I feel really dumb now. Yes, I do :) | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | :) | 03:06 |
| PhotoJim | do you know what IP addresses your machines have? (in particular, your server) | 03:07 |
| Nikilos | I know what this machine's IP address is, not the server's | 03:08 |
| PhotoJim | you need to know the server's | 03:09 |
| PhotoJim | how is it getting an IP, by DHCP? | 03:10 |
| Nikilos | I have no idea, sorry. :(I have the server connected to a wireless router via an ethernet cable and I'm on my notebook right now, which it connected wirelessly | 03:11 |
| PhotoJim | what is your notebook's IP? | 03:12 |
| PhotoJim | how do you use your server if you don't know its IP, by the way? :) | 03:13 |
| Nikilos | 192.168.1.2 is my notebook's IP | 03:13 |
| PhotoJim | my guess is that your server is 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.3... your gateway is probably .1.1 so try .1.3 | 03:13 |
| PhotoJim | you're running Linux on your notebook? | 03:14 |
| Nikilos | I'm actually running OS X, but its Terminal will still work, right? | 03:14 |
| PhotoJim | it will. | 03:15 |
| Nikilos | Oh, I successfully connected | 03:15 |
| Nikilos | It was 192.168.1.3 | 03:15 |
| PhotoJim | how did you connect? did you do an ssh login? | 03:16 |
| Nikilos | I used Coda's terminal and used its "Connect via SSH" option and entered in the information | 03:16 |
| PhotoJim | so you're in? | 03:17 |
| Nikilos | Yup, I was able to undo the change I made to /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:18 |
| PhotoJim | oh, cool. | 03:19 |
| PhotoJim | ssh is a very useful tool. | 03:19 |
| Nikilos | Thanks for stepping me through this, Jim, you're a lifesaver | 03:19 |
| PhotoJim | not exactly :) but you're welcome. | 03:21 |
| PhotoJim | not dumb questions, by the way. | 03:21 |
| PhotoJim | we were all newbies once. | 03:21 |
| Nikilos | :) | 03:21 |
| PhotoJim | my server is in my basement. I almost never do a real console login. always ssh from upstairs, or even away from home. like yesterday, I sshed from 4000 km away :) | 03:22 |
| PhotoJim | today ssh is just a few feet :) | 03:22 |
| Nikilos | So how would I SSH to my server if I was not connected to my home network? | 03:23 |
| Alex_21 | ssh username@192.168.x.x | 03:24 |
| PhotoJim | you'll need to port forward a port from your router to your server, and have a static IP address you can use elsewhere | 03:24 |
| Alex_21 | Replace the last two with the proper values | 03:24 |
| PhotoJim | Alex_21: that won't work outside his LAN :) | 03:24 |
| Alex_21 | If you don't have a static IP use DYNDNS.net | 03:24 |
| Alex_21 | Ok | 03:24 |
| PhotoJim | yup, that'll work too, not quite as well but reasonably well | 03:24 |
| Alex_21 | And do: ssh username@something.homelinux.net | 03:25 |
| PhotoJim | my ISP gives me 2 static IPs, so my router (which is a custom Alix Linux box) has one and my server has the other | 03:25 |
| PhotoJim | dual NICs on both, so they have separate connections to the LAN | 03:25 |
| PhotoJim | my WiFi router just does WiFi, no routing | 03:25 |
| Nikilos | Two routers would definitely complicate the situation, I assume... | 03:26 |
| Alex_21 | Depends on the sicuation in the first place :) | 03:27 |
| Alex_21 | It is up to you | 03:27 |
| PhotoJim | not really. my access point is set to route all traffic through 192.168.222.26, which is my router's IP | 03:27 |
| PhotoJim | works perfectly :) | 03:28 |
| PhotoJim | and it doesn't give out IP addresses by DHCP, that's disabled. | 03:28 |
| Alex_21 | I have to run | 03:28 |
| Alex_21 | I hope I could help | 03:28 |
| Alex_21 | Thanks for your help | 03:28 |
| PhotoJim | ciao Alex | 03:28 |
| Alex_21 | Good night | 03:28 |
| Nikilos | Well, I think I can figure out the rest from here. Thanks for all the help! | 03:42 |
| Nikilos | I'll most likely return sometime in the near future, though :) | 03:43 |
| PhotoJim | you're most welcome | 03:48 |
| chelehandsome | how can I mount a RAID 5 in my server? | 03:50 |
| jaypur_mb | hi, i installed apache and my internet provider blocks the access of port 80, so what port should i use at the ports.conf file and at my router? | 04:18 |
| === s_markow_ is now known as s_markow | ||
| jmarsden | jaypur_mb: Any port you like... but usually if the ISP blocks port 80 it is because their Terms of Service forbid servers, so make sure they actually permit (not just technically but contractually/legally) use of a server on whatever port you choose. | 04:57 |
| jmarsden | Ports 81 or 8000 or 8080 would be common choices for alternative web server ports. | 04:57 |

| Alex_21 | I have ap roblem. On boot I get | 06:22 |
| Alex_21 | Code: "[ 25.251737] Freeing initrd memory: 8263k freed" | 06:23 |
| Alex_21 | Any ideas | 06:24 |
| Alex_21 | Please | 06:24 |
| ssm | that's a normal boot line, Alex_21 | 06:33 |
| Alex_21 | But it is hanging for half an hour on the same line | 06:34 |
| ssm | Alex_21: does it continue to boot after the half hour pause? | 06:34 |
| Alex_21 | It hasn't booted yet. It is a vannila install | 06:35 |
| ssm | Are you booting from an install cd? Is this a normal boot from disk, and a problem that's just appeared, have you done any upgrades lately, does your disk make funny noices, black smoke, anything else? | 06:39 |
| Alex_21 | Nothing. It is a vanilla install and I am booting from the HD. It has software raid on it | 06:45 |
| jmarsden | Alex_21: It might be good to try doing a fresh install onto just one of the HDs, just to check that the basic hardware is OK? Then if that works, the issue is probably RAID related in some way, and you can go back and troubleshoot that? A 30+ minute delay means it's probably not going to finish that install, in my opinion. | 06:47 |
| Alex_21 | It finished the install | 06:48 |
| Alex_21 | This is the first power up | 06:48 |
| twb | If the delay is reproducible, I would blame nss. | 06:48 |
| twb | For example, if you have network manager installed and are running a NIS client, you will get that behaviour. | 06:48 |
| twb | Because NM retardedly tries to look in /home or something, before the network is even up. | 06:49 |
| Alex_21 | I just realized something | 06:49 |
| Alex_21 | The domain is assigned to this machine is not correct | 06:49 |
| ssm | twb: Network Manager has surprised me lately.... :/ I have ldap auth here... | 06:52 |
| ssm | Alex_21: DNS or NIS domain? | 06:52 |
| twb | ssm: well, with ldap you can at least bind softly. | 06:52 |
| Alex_21 | I don't know the difference | 06:52 |
| twb | I dunno if/how to do that in NIS. | 06:53 |
| ssm | twb: yes, or I can add the interface to /etc/network/interfaces :) The default install gives you network after you've logged in | 06:53 |
| Alex_21 | I have the domain from dyndns.com fried-rice.homelinux.net | 06:54 |
| twb | ssm: that's fucking retarded | 06:54 |
| ssm | Alex_21: then you're not running NIS, I'd guess | 06:54 |
| twb | I hate NM so much. | 06:54 |
| twb | At least wifi-radar leaves my wired nics the hell alone | 06:55 |
| ssm | twb: I'd say NM is a mixed blessing, at least :) | 06:55 |
| Alex_21 | Ok. Could this be my problem. That is not resolving correctly | 06:55 |
| twb | Alex_21: boot without "quiet" (or "splash") in your kernel command line, and take a note of the text immediately before the freeze occurs. | 06:56 |
| ssm | Alex_21: not sure, that should not pause the boot process | 06:56 |
| Alex_21 | Because I did have Ubuntu installed before and it worked fine. But I need Raid 1 | 06:56 |
| twb | Alex_21: then boot with "single" or into a live CD, and add tracing on those files in /etc/rcS.d | 06:56 |
| Alex_21 | What will that do? | 06:57 |
| ssm | I think the last line Alex_21 quoted was from the kernel freeing initrd memory, that's way before any init scripts. | 06:58 |
| twb | ssm: it can't be. | 06:58 |
| twb | ssm: if it's freeing the ramdisk memory, it has to be past the ramdisk | 06:58 |
| ssm | point | 06:58 |
| * ssm needs more coffee.... | 06:59 | |
| ssm | first kernel, then initrd stuff, then pivot-root and then there's a pause.... | 07:00 |
| Alex_21 | [ 25.244020] checking if image is initramfs ... it isn't (bad gzip magic numbers ); looks like an initrd | 07:00 |
| ssm | the next line after that in my dmesg is audit, but that's after 0.9 seconds, and the initrd message from Alex_21 was after 25 sec | 07:00 |
| Alex_21 | Is what it says before the freeze | 07:01 |
| Alex_21 | Code: "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID" | 07:02 |
| Alex_21 | Code: "[ 25.244020] checking if image is initramfs ... it isn't (bad gzip magic numbers ); looks like an initrd" Sorry about before | 07:02 |
| Alex_21 | What does this mean? | 07:04 |
| ssm | Alex_21: you could try booting from the cdrom again, in rescue mode, then do "update-initramfs -u -k all". The image should be initramfs, at least it is here, on my jaunty desktop install. | 07:07 |
| ssm | your dmesg says that the image is not a vaild initramfs image, and it therefore assumes that the format is "initrd" instead. | 07:07 |
| ssm | Alex_21: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1163519 also looks related | 07:09 |
| ssm | you could try adding rootdelay=200, since your boot obviously takes a while. That's bitten me on some servers earlier | 07:10 |
| Alex_21 | So I boot the disk. Then what? | 07:11 |
| Alex_21 | There is no DHCP Server on the network BTW | 07:11 |
| Alex_21 | I am at the Ubuntu Splash | 07:11 |
| ssm | when grub comes up, hit "e" for edit, navigate to the line that starts with "kernel", hit "e" for edit again, add "rootdelay=200" to the boot parameter list, then enter, and "b" for boot | 07:11 |
| ssm | also, remove the "splash" and "quiet' words on the grub kernel boot line | 07:12 |
| Alex_21 | I mean on the CD | 07:12 |
| Alex_21 | Do I go to Reque mode? | 07:13 |
| ssm | Alex_21: CD rescue mode for the "update-initramfs" trick, to see if that works, or grub menu on the hard disk for the "rootdelay" thingie | 07:15 |
| Alex_21 | I have Lelo | 07:16 |
| Alex_21 | Not Grub | 07:17 |
| ssm | Alex_21: if you boot from "lilo", then just add "rootdelay=200" after the default, which probably is "Linux" | 07:17 |
| ssm | Alex_21: the ubuntu install gives you lilo if you have everything in LVM, and grub if you make a /boot partition outside LVM when you install. | 07:18 |
| Alex_21 | I have no idea where to edit this file for Lello | 07:19 |
| Alex_21 | It was all done in LVM on top of Raid1 | 07:19 |
| Alex_21 | Thanks for your help | 07:37 |
| Alex_21 | Good night | 07:37 |
| twb | If you boot into lilo, give up and reinstall | 07:56 |
| twb | lilo is totally NOT the right thing for LVM, though it will appear to work at first | 07:56 |
| twb | It works by remembering the block offset, so if you actually try to, you know, resize or move extents, lilo will just break. | 07:57 |
| soren | twb: ...and grub doesn't know about lvm at all. So what would you use? | 08:40 |
| twb | soren: you put /boot on a separate RAID1 array OUTSIDE LVM. | 09:25 |
| twb | (Note that current versions of Grub *do* understand LVM -- but Ubuntu, and everyone else, still run Grub Legacy.) | 09:25 |
| twb | Although personally I would prefer to use extlinux over grub, if it was as well-supported by d-i. | 09:26 |
| twb | And, you know, kernel-img.conf and such. Though I think that's mostly programmable; you'd mainly need to write an update-extlinux(8) script. | 09:27 |
| a_ok | say i make an initscript what is the best way to set it up in the runlevels? | 09:57 |
| soren | twb: Yes, so that renders your lilo argument moot, doesn't it? | 10:04 |
| soren | twb: You're saying not to use lilo if your kernel is on lvm, because it'll break when stuff moves around, but what you clearly actually mean is to not put your kernel on lvm. | 10:07 |
| soren | ...which is completely different. | 10:08 |
| === cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson | ||
| twb | soren: sorry, yes, that was implied | 10:30 |
| twb | But even without LVM, lilo would be vulnerable against e.g. replacing your ext2 filesystem with another one that contains that same files. | 10:31 |
| twb | (another ext2 filesystem, that is.) | 10:31 |
| twb | That's why grub-install tends to only get run once, whereas lilo needs to be reinstalled into the MBR practically every time you upgrade your kernel. | 10:31 |
| soren | twb: s/practically // | 11:04 |

| Sam-I-Am | did your files copy correctly? | 14:48 |
| tdn | Here is terminal log of what I have tried: http://thomasdamgaard.dk/p/P1310.html | 14:48 |
| Sam-I-Am | and does mysql know about the database? | 14:48 |
| skarufue | yes | 14:48 |
| skarufue | yes | 14:48 |
| Sam-I-Am | are the indices there? | 14:49 |
| skarufue | as i recall this is something common with innodb tables when the databases are simply copied (e.g. not using mysqldump) | 14:49 |
| skarufue | indices? | 14:50 |
| Sam-I-Am | index? | 14:50 |
| skarufue | yes it say for example gallery2 db has 63 tables but i can only view 3 of them (all who are not innodb) | 14:51 |
| skarufue | (to be honest i dont get the indeces question) | 14:51 |
| Sam-I-Am | not sure if you have to regenerate any indices if the database is physically moved | 14:52 |
| Sam-I-Am | or some command that make it work on a different instance of mysql | 14:52 |
| skarufue | well the last time i think i had to read them from binary backup with some sort of offline method | 14:52 |
| skarufue | but cant remember what exactly | 14:53 |
| Sam-I-Am | maybe you need to use the same procedure? | 14:53 |
| Sam-I-Am | google might be useful :) | 14:53 |
| skarufue | yeah well i tried that a lot but its a hard search term since the internets seems to be full of people who try to restore some sort of mysql database | 14:54 |
| Sam-I-Am | can you get mysql to return a more specific error, or an error number? | 14:54 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: of InnoDB though the .frm file for the table exists. Maybe you | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: have deleted and recreated InnoDB data files but have forgotten | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: to delete the corresponding .frm files of InnoDB tables, or you | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: have moved .frm files to another database? | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/innodb-troubleshooting.html | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: how you can resolve the problem. | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: | 14:58 |
| skarufue | Jun 8 15:51:56 hosting mysqld[29526]: 090608 15:51:56090608 15:51:56 [ERROR] Cannot find table gallery/g2_User from the internal data dictionary | 14:58 |
| Sam-I-Am | have you looked at what it tells you to look at? | 14:59 |
| skarufue | yes it isnt very helpfull | 15:01 |
| skarufue | it suggest to use CHECK TABLE which ist really an option whe mysql doesnt start | 15:02 |
| Sam-I-Am | got me... | 15:02 |
| skarufue | the thing is if i move ibdata1 out of /var/lib/mysql then the server starts (and a new ibdata is created) then i see the databases but the innodb tables are empty | 15:03 |
| Sam-I-Am | http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/innodb-backup.html | 15:06 |
| Sam-I-Am | same versions, same platforms? | 15:06 |
| skarufue | yeah have binary logging turned on.. but i just realised that maybe it isnt enough to just swap out ibdata... | 15:08 |
| skarufue | ill try that | 15:08 |
| skarufue | ok | 15:12 |
| skarufue | as usually it was a file permissions fuckup | 15:12 |
| skarufue | thanks for bearing with my stupidity | 15:13 |
| skarufue | :) | 15:13 |
| jaypur_mb | hi i'd like to know a free temperature monitor to my server... does someone know? | 15:48 |
| uvirtbot | New bug: #384821 in samba (main) "samba segmentation faults" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/384821 | 15:51 |
| phoenixz | I have opted for home directory encryption in my ubuntu server installation which causes SSH not to be able to use ssh keys anymore.. anbody who could help me to fix this problem? | 16:17 |
| soren | kirkland: ^ :) | 16:17 |
| phoenixz | rob_p: well, in my case, I opted for home directory encryption during the ubuntu server installation. Result seems to be that SSH is not functioning correctly with keys anymore.. How can I fix this? | 16:19 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: encrypted home and ssh public key authentication are (mostly) incompatible technologies | 16:21 |
| phoenixz | kirkland: in other words.. once using encrypted home directories... you can no longer use ssh with public key authentication.. ? | 16:22 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: i say "mostly" ... | 16:22 |
| phoenixz | okay... but how could I then get them to work? | 16:22 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: there are two non-ideal work arounds | 16:22 |
| phoenixz | kirkland: oh oh... | 16:22 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: basically, encrypted-home means that you *must* enter a password to mount your home directory -- that's the design/definition of the feature | 16:23 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: you can ssh in with a password the *first* time | 16:23 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: and then subsequent ssh's via pubkey should work | 16:23 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: as long as your home dir stays mounted | 16:24 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: if you rm ~/.ecryptfs/auto-umount, it won't be unmounted on logout | 16:24 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: which is perhaps a slight security risk to your data, but will key your pubkey auth working | 16:24 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: that's option #1 | 16:24 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: option #2 ... | 16:24 |
| phoenixz | kirkland: gottit.. | 16:24 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: you can move your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file out of your encrypted home directory | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: put it in your unmounted, read-only home | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: this will get your ssh public key auth working | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: but your home dir will not be auto mounted on login | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: you will need to run ecryptfs-mount-private | 16:25 |
| phoenixz | because there is data there... | 16:25 |
| phoenixz | gottit... | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: and enter a password, and then home is mounted | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: this is documented in various scattered places | 16:25 |
| kirkland | phoenixz: i'm going write a blog post that documents it now :-) | 16:26 |
| kirkland | soren: thanks for the pointer | 16:26 |
| phoenixz | kirkland: This is a detail that might be documented a bit clearer yeah :) maybe during installation or something :) | 16:26 |
| phoenixz | kirkland: thanks a lot! | 16:26 |
| soren | How about changing the location of the authorized_keys ? | 16:26 |
| soren | I once taught ssh to look at a fuse mountpoint that would fetch ssh keys from launchpad on the fly. | 16:27 |
| soren | I feel much better now, though. | 16:27 |
| kirkland | soren: that was option #2 | 16:27 |
| soren | kirkland: Oh, I misunderstood. Sorry. | 16:28 |
| soren | huats: Hey. The changelog in your merge says that Intrepid and Karmic were merged upstream. If it's cool with you, I'll change "Karmic" to "Jaunty" and go ahead an upload? | 16:28 |
| huats | soren hey | 16:29 |
| huats | 2 minutes I am on the phone | 16:30 |
| soren | huats: Sure. | 16:30 |
| soren | kirkland: I'm reading your option #2 again, and I'm not sure we're speaking about the same thing. | 16:30 |
| kirkland | soren: okay, i simply meant option #2 to convey moving ~/.ssh/authorized_keys out of $HOME | 16:31 |
| kirkland | soren: out of encrypted home, anyway | 16:31 |
| kirkland | soren: somewhere that the system can find it, unencrypted | 16:31 |
| kirkland | soren: what are you meaning? | 16:32 |
| soren | kirkland: Right. Like /var/lib/ecryptfs-workarounds/<username>/authorized_keys or something. | 16:32 |
| kirkland | soren: sure | 16:32 |
| soren | And adjust AuthorizedKeysFile in sshd_config accordingly. | 16:32 |
| kirkland | soren: i suggested unmounted $HOME, but it could be mostly anyway | 16:32 |
| kirkland | anywhere | 16:32 |
| kirkland | soren: ah, and you mean modifying the sshd_config too | 16:32 |
| soren | Right. | 16:33 |
| huats | soren: I am back | 16:33 |
| huats | hey :) | 16:33 |
| soren | o/ | 16:33 |
| huats | oups | 16:34 |
| huats | indeed | 16:34 |
| huats | intrepid and jaunty were merged :) | 16:34 |
| huats | go ahead | 16:34 |
| huats | you can change that : | 16:34 |
| huats | :) | 16:34 |
| huats | (sorry for the mistake) | 16:34 |
| soren | Cool :) | 16:34 |
| soren | huats: I didn't expect you to object, but it felt wrong changing stuff that is signed by you without your consent. :) | 16:34 |
| * soren breaks | 16:34 | |
| huats | btw I will send the patch I have added (that adds karmic) to upstream and debian too... | 16:35 |
| huats | sure I understand | 16:35 |
| huats | btw I have done locally the virt-manager update, are you interested ? :) | 16:35 |
| huats | I mean the merge | 16:35 |
| soren | huats: Sure, bring it on :) | 16:46 |
| huats | hehe | 16:47 |
| huats | I will | 16:47 |
| huats | I have just to deal with a last patch | 16:47 |
| huats | (I might need your opinion on it btw) | 16:47 |
| soren | Sure. | 16:48 |
| kirkland | soren: i'll document your suggested method too :-) | 16:55 |
| soren | ;) | 16:55 |
| huats | soren: In fact the patch that bothers me a bit is : http://paste.ubuntu.com/190975/ | 17:11 |
| huats | in fact the new interface has changed quite a bit | 17:11 |
| huats | and there is not anymore the distinction para virt/full virt (from my understanding and that has been confirmed when I have launched the application) | 17:12 |
| huats | so I am not sure this is needed... | 17:12 |
| huats | (by instance I am running it without being the kvm group) | 17:13 |
| huats | soren: I need to run | 17:30 |
| huats | I might be connected later tonight or tomorrow :) | 17:30 |

| Oasisbhrnw | Hello. I just installed Ubuntu Server 9.04. During the install there was an option to turn auto-updates on, which I did. My question is, is there anyway to check when auto-updates last ran and/or is there a way to make it run manually? | 19:36 |
| jmedina | Oasisbhrnw: AFAIK, auto update wont update your system quitely, insted will download list like apt-get update | 19:38 |
| Oasisbhrnw | I just don't know how to verify it's working. I'm paranoid it's acutally not running. | 19:39 |
| sommer | Oasisbhrnw: there will be new entries in /var/log/apt/term.log | 19:41 |
| sommer | Oasisbhrnw: you can also adjust the settings in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades | 19:42 |
| Oasisbhrnw | K, thanks. | 19:43 |
| orudie | hi, i'm struggling with this http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/590 | 19:52 |
| orudie | trying to lock user in home dir. | 19:54 |
| orudie | can someone help me with this ? | 19:55 |
| orudie | please | 19:55 |
| ghostlines | what's the prob? | 19:59 |
| orudie | well first off cant even test it with sftp user@host because i'm using ssh private key | 20:00 |
| orudie | how can i specify port with sftp user@host ? | 20:01 |
| jmedina | man scp? | 20:02 |
| orudie | jmedina-> sftp | 20:02 |
| orudie | its -o something | 20:02 |
| orudie | forgot what | 20:03 |
| jmedina | orudie: then man sftp | 20:03 |
| orudie | looking cant see | 20:03 |
| jmedina | just type: /port and there you go | 20:03 |
| jmedina | :D | 20:03 |
| jmedina | the fist match | 20:04 |
| jmedina | For example, to specify an alternate port use: sftp -oPort=24. | 20:04 |
| orudie | yup see it thanx | 20:04 |
| orudie | i didnt know how to search inside man pages lol | 20:04 |
| orudie | now i know | 20:04 |
| jmedina | ¬¬ | 20:04 |
| jmedina | orudie: the first thing is learn how to use man pages | 20:04 |
| jmedina | man man | 20:04 |
| orudie | :) | 20:05 |
| jmedina | use man before googling or ask in forums/chats... | 20:05 |
| orudie | good stuff | 20:05 |
| jmedina | it is easier, and most of time will save some time to you and to others | 20:05 |
| jmedina | and you look Pro :D | 20:06 |
| jmedina | orudie: then you dont know how to search in more/less? | 20:06 |
| orudie | do not know what you are asking | 20:07 |
| jmedina | Im taking about pager programs like more or less | 20:08 |
| jmedina | man uses a pager, I think by default is more unless you install less (1) | 20:08 |
| orudie | never used those | 20:08 |
| jmedina | :O | 20:08 |
| orudie | so yeah cant test within the host | 20:10 |
| jmedina | virtualize!!!!! | 20:10 |
| orudie | Failed to add the host to the list of known hosts (/home/paul/.ssh/known_hosts). | 20:10 |
| orudie | Permission denied (publickey). | 20:10 |
| orudie | but its obviously doesnt work because i can actually browse to other directories if i do su user | 20:11 |
| orudie | anything ? | 20:16 |
| orudie | anyhing anyone ? | 20:20 |
| ghostlines | what vpn solution do you guys recommend? | 20:34 |
| mathiaz | ghostlines: openvpn is a good solution and may fit your needs | 20:36 |
| ghostlines | I have experience with open-vpn, wondering if they're are any better ones | 20:36 |

| ta3one | can anyone please help? | 21:48 |
| matthewmpp | Hi, I am new to server-editions. I created a user on my server with: useradd -m matthewmpp, but it never asked me for a password for matthewmpp. How do I create or change the password for this new user? | 21:53 |
| matthewmpp | ping | 21:54 |
| ta3one | hey matthew | 21:56 |
| matthewmpp | hi | 21:56 |
| ta3one | use passwd username | 21:56 |
| matthewmpp | okay | 21:56 |
| ta3one | sudo passwd username | 21:56 |
| ta3one | you can reset any password like that from the cli | 21:56 |
| matthewmpp | by using passwd username? | 21:57 |
| ta3one | yeah | 21:57 |
| ta3one | by the way, you should be using adduser | 21:58 |
| ta3one | not useradd | 21:58 |
| orudie | after following this guide http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/590 i can not figure out where they authorized_keys file with ssh key should go | 21:58 |
| orudie | had been stuck on this for many hours already | 21:58 |
| ta3one | useradd is low level utility | 21:58 |
| giovani|work | orudie: that guide has nothing to do with ssh keys | 21:59 |
| giovani|work | so, clearly that's not a good place to find the answer | 21:59 |
| ta3one | orudie, what are you trying to do? | 21:59 |
| ta3one | you mean like automatic logon? | 21:59 |
| orudie | giovani|work-> yes, but i cant connect | 21:59 |
| orudie | ta3one-> lock user in directory with help of chroot | 21:59 |
| ta3one | ohh sorry, I've never done that ... | 22:00 |
| orudie | giovani|work-> its like ssh doesnt know where to look for authorized_keys file after i followed the guide | 22:00 |
| orudie | giovani|work-> for that particular user | 22:01 |
| orudie | where does the authorized_keys file go when using chroot in sshd_config ? | 23:12 |
| FFForever | is anyone around that has setup proftpd before? | 23:15 |
| FFForever | i keep getting ProFTPd warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode. Check your configuration., and i only installed it i have not modded the default configuration | 23:15 |
| orudie | FFForever, why not use sftp ? | 23:16 |
| FFForever | orudie, because this is for a client and not me personally | 23:16 |
| FFForever | any ideas? | 23:22 |
| FFForever | bah =( Fatal: unable to load module 'mod_lang.c': Operation not permitted | 23:25 |
| FFForever | anyone around? | 23:44 |
| billybigrigger | reconfigure it? | 23:44 |
| billybigrigger | dpkg-reconfigure proftpd | 23:45 |
| billybigrigger | unless it was compiled | 23:45 |
| FFForever | it was installed via apt | 23:45 |
| FFForever | i get this http://pastebin.ca/1452500 | 23:46 |
| FFForever | billybigrigger, any other ideas? | 23:48 |
| billybigrigger | sudo dpkg-reconfigure proftpd | 23:51 |
| billybigrigger | ? | 23:51 |
| billybigrigger | hmm | 23:51 |
| billybigrigger | nm | 23:51 |
| FFForever | i am root | 23:51 |
| billybigrigger | didn't see root@ | 23:51 |
| FFForever | ahh | 23:51 |
| billybigrigger | is it a functioning fp server? | 23:52 |
| billybigrigger | ftp? | 23:52 |
| billybigrigger | purge it and reinstall | 23:52 |
| FFForever | billybigrigger, i did that | 23:53 |
| FFForever | no luck | 23:53 |
| FFForever | i have made no modifications | 23:53 |
| jmedina | billybigrigger: why dont you set your locales? | 23:55 |
| billybigrigger | FFForever | 23:55 |
| billybigrigger | not i | 23:55 |
| billybigrigger | :P | 23:55 |
| jmedina | sorry :S | 23:55 |
| jmedina | FFForever: why dont you set your locales? | 23:55 |
| FFForever | cause i do not know how? | 23:56 |
| jmedina | for easy: apg-get install language-pack-en | 23:56 |
| jmedina | is that a virtual machine? | 23:57 |
| FFForever | yeah | 23:57 |
| jmedina | :D | 23:57 |
| FFForever | that worked... | 23:57 |
| jmedina | now try to restart proftp | 23:57 |
| FFForever | perfect | 23:58 |
| jmedina | ok | 23:58 |
| jmedina | probably a bug with proftpd init script, it is catchig local exict code not proftp daemon | 23:58 |
| jmedina | you can help sending a bug report | 23:59 |
| jmedina | probably someone else can confirm this | 23:59 |
| FFForever | i am on dialup at the moment ill so ill have to do this tomorrow | 23:59 |
| FFForever | dialup + bnc == fun | 23:59 |
