Alex_21Hi, all,02:40
Alex_21I would like to scan my network since the ip of one of my servers changed after a router upgrade and I can't find it. I have NMAP, but I don't remember how to can 192.168.0.0/2402:41
Alex_21Can someone help me?02:41
Alex_21Please02:41
giovaniread the nmap manpage02:41
giovaniit's very well-documented02:42
Alex_21I am having a hard time reading it02:43
giovaniwhy?02:43
Alex_21I can only read small chunks of man pages because of my screen reader02:44
giovanipage down02:45
Alex_21Nope02:45
giovanithen fix your screen reader02:45
giovanior use google02:45
giovanito find an online copy of the manpage02:45
giovaniubuntu has a website for manpages02:45
Alex_21There is nothing wrong with my SR02:46
giovanithere is if you can't page down02:46
Alex_21I was asking a simple question as I struggle through the Man page02:46
giovaniI'm in favor of you finding the very well-documented answer, rather than handing it to you02:46
Alex_21No, there isn't. I can page down, but the way things work, I can't read what is in between pages02:46
Alex_21It is quite unusual behavior :(02:47
giovaniuse the up and down arrows to move one line at a time02:47
Alex_21It hits invisible barriers02:49
Alex_21It is a well-known but in Terminal02:49
giovanithis is not normal behavior02:49
giovanianyway02:49
giovaniI've said that you can find manpages on the web02:50
giovaniubuntu has a website for them02:50
Alex_21I am reading a hotow on it as we speak02:50
Alex_21Howto on it, ... Sorry02:50
Alex_21Also, it is usual behavior02:50
Alex_21It just is not ideal behavior02:51
giovanino, the default manpage reader doesn't hit "invisible barriers"02:51
giovanithat's not normal behavior02:51
Alex_21With a screen reader it does02:52
giovaninope02:52
Alex_21It has as far back as I can remember on02:52
Alex_21I have used a screen reader for years. I think I know when I find a bug and it is reproducable accross machines02:53
Alex_21Unless you think differently, I am sure this is a bug02:55
giovaniwell there's no way to really prove this, or troubleshoot it -- did you find the manpage online?02:56
Alex_21I should call up software dev team staff on Monday and rereport it02:56
Alex_21I did not look. I found a nice walk-through though02:56
Alex_21So I am on my way02:56
Alex_21I realized my server isn't connected to the network even02:57
Alex_21It seems anyways02:57
Alex_21I'll bee back.02:57
Alex_21I'm going to go to the rack and fix it.02:58
Alex_21Thanks for your help02:58
Alex_21Good night02:58
burn_anyone have a package or something to show temp and other stats on a web page?03:59
HasbroHi04:00
HasbroOn my Ubuntu installation I cannot resolve anything without editing my hosts file :S I'll type ping google.com won't work unless I add that as an entry in my hosts file.04:01
ClackamasHi, I need some help in trying to preserve my RAID moving from SuSE 10.3 -> Ubuntu 9.04.04:01
HasbroHas anyone any ideas about this issue?04:01
ClackamasDo I need anything besides the UUID and disk mappings?04:01
ClackamasI am using the md driver.04:01
ClackamasHasbro: you probably don't have DHCP set up correctly.04:02
HasbroAny guides?04:02
giovaniHasbro: your DNS isn't configured or working properly, obviously04:02
Hasbrogiovani, I use my provider's nameservers04:03
giovaniwhich are?04:03
Hasbro• ns1.limestonenetworks.com04:03
Hasbro• ns2.limestonenetworks.com04:03
ClackamasHasbro: what is in /etc/resolv.conf?04:03
Hasbrosearch arcemu.info04:03
Hasbronameserver 209.130.152.704:03
giovaniHasbro: those dns servers aren't returning records for the internet04:04
HasbroHow can we check?04:04
giovaniand you are not specifying them in /etc/resolv.conf04:04
giovanii just did check04:04
giovaniwhat makes you think you're using ns1 and ns2.limestonenetworks.com?04:04
HasbroI set the domains to them04:04
Hasbrolol04:04
giovaniuh04:04
giovaniI think you may be confused how DNS works04:04
HasbroYes, wasn't thinking04:04
Hasbrowait so question04:05
HasbroI did not edit04:05
Hasbrothis04:05
giovanithere's a huge difference between authoritative DNS and internet resolvers04:05
Hasbroand it was set to 209.130.152.704:05
Hasbrowhich if you go it in a browser, brings up a page04:05
Clackamasns.limestonenetworks.com is 74.63.208.204:05
giovaniClackamas: ignore that -- he's confusing his authoritative DNS for his domain with resolvers04:05
Hasbrowhat's ubuntu's default nameserver set to?04:05
Hasbrosorry04:05
giovaniHasbro: it's not set -- that perobably came from your DNS at cologuys04:05
Hasbrowhat resolver04:05
giovanierr04:05
giovaniDHCP04:05
giovanior cologuys configured it for you04:06
Hasbronah04:06
giovaniwell someone configured the box04:06
HasbroI run Ubuntu in a vm on windows04:06
giovanihaha04:06
Clackamasgiovani I will let you drive.04:06
HasbroIt doesn't set to anything by default?04:06
giovaniHasbro: no, of course not04:06
giovanithat's up to you to configure04:06
Hasbroso if I leave it blank, what will happen?04:06
giovaniyou won't be able to resolve domains04:06
Hasbrogiovani, so question04:06
Hasbrosince I run it in a vm on windows, can I just get what ever my windows one04:07
Hasbrois set to?04:07
giovaniyes ... but you'd have to configure your vm software properly04:07
Hasbroalso, might I ask what the search line is for?04:07
Hasbrosearch arcemu.info04:07
giovanito either pass that ... or find the information in the windows host, and copy it04:07
Hasbroin resolve.conf04:07
giovaniit's for automatically appending that domain on non-FQDN names you attempt to resolve04:07
giovanii.e. ping foo04:07
giovaniwill search DNS for foo.arcemu.info04:07
Hasbrooh04:07
Hasbroso ping google.com04:08
Hasbrois searching forr google.com.arcemu.info maybe?04:08
giovanino04:08
Hasbrohrm04:08
giovanigoogle.com is a FQDN04:08
giovaniyour DNS is broken, obviously04:08
Hasbrocould you check if 209.130.152.7 is a resolver?04:08
Hasbromaybe it's vmware's settings which are fubared04:08
giovaniwell it only has settings you give it04:08
giovanibut no, 209.130.152.7 is not resolving domains for me04:09
giovanihowever04:09
giovanithat's a cologuys IP04:09
Hasbrocologuys?04:09
giovaniso it's possibly limited to the internal network04:09
giovanithat's your IP space owner04:09
giovaniwhomever you rent a server from is either cologuys, or is a customer of cologuys04:09
HasbroI see04:09
Hasbrobut the thing is04:09
giovanithis is a question for your provider04:09
HasbroI haven't modified any of this, and it worked on friday morning04:10
giovaninot #ubuntu-server04:10
Hasbroand then it stopped working04:10
giovanimaybe their DNS server is broken now04:10
Hasbrohrm04:10
giovanionce again, this is a question for your provider04:10
HasbroI'll contact support, 1 moment04:10
giovaniubuntu is working perfectly04:10
Hasbrogiovani, do you have a server I could use to resolve domains off of?04:11
giovanino04:11
Hasbrowhat is yours set to then?04:11
giovanithey're set to opendns04:11
giovaniby way of a caching resolver04:11
Hasbroso are there free resolvers out there?04:11
giovaniyes04:11
Hasbrowhich is open dns?04:12
=== s_markow_ is now known as s_markow
Hasbrogiovani05:13
Hasbrocould I setup my own dns server?05:13
Hasbroon the machine?05:13
JomyootIf NFS volume in /etc/fstab fails to mount. then will machine fail to boot?05:17
Hasbrogiovani, nevermind found my own answer and a nice guide :)05:19
Hasbrocheers05:19
HasbroJomyoot was yours deleted or soemthing?05:20
Hasbrosomething*05:20

kjkjavaHey there05:27
kjkjavaI'm having some trouble setting up Ubuntu Server 9.04 LAMP on the network side of things05:29
kjkjavaI have set port forwarding on 80 and 2205:30
kjkjavaand an online port scanner shows them as open05:30
kjkjava(and only them)05:30
kjkjavaAlso, web pages pull up fine on the internal IP05:31
kjkjavaand same with SSH (works internally, external port is open, but still nothing)05:31
kjkjavaokay, so even though tracerts can't make it to my global IP, my friend (outside of the network) was able to get to my site06:01
kjkjavaand so was a proxy06:01
kjkjavaso it looks like everyone outside of my network can get to me via my external IP06:02
kjkjavaso my new question is, why won't it work from the inside?06:03
kjkjavabut I'm happy, I suppose06:03
fbc-mxCould someone tell me how(or point me in the right direction) to implement Event MPM on my server?11:44

pmatulisanirban: it looks like you are mixing up debian and ubuntu packages12:48
anirbanpmatulis : Isn't ubuntu and debian packages same ?12:50
anirbanThen how to upgrade SQL server to 5.1.34 in Ubuntu ?12:52
pmatulisanirban: no they're not the same12:54
pmatulisanirban: just upgrade your system in the normal way12:54
pmatulis$ sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude full-upgrade12:54
anirbanpmatulis : But it is stuck in SQL server 5.0.67 in Ubuntu 9.04 server. Where the current release is 5.1.3512:55
pmatulisfirst of all, it's not 'SQL server'.  it's 'MySQL server'12:55
pmatulisanirban: i see 5.0.75 for jaunty12:57

anirbanThere is something like denied_mask="::r"13:58
anirbanHecate : Can u hav an SSH access and look into the problem ?13:59

mobi-sheepI'm thinking about creating a Ubuntu Home Theater PC Server --- Preferably XBMC.  What could you run on server that would benefit me (the home user) the most?14:29
mobi-sheepAnd on the side note, I'm fairly experienced with Ubuntu already.  I want to dip my feet in the server / networking area more. :)14:30
giovanimobi-sheep: ubuntu-server has the same packages as the desktop version14:35
giovaniso there's really little-to-no difference from a what-will-run perspective14:35
mobi-sheepgiovani: I mean literally hooking it up to a HDMI television in living room so I would like to avoid the GUI.  In a way, I'm saying that I want to set it up to run XBMC as a default session.  I also looked at LIRC remote control.  I only want to know what I could do that would benefit me or my local network.14:38
giovaniwell xbmc is a gui14:39
giovaniand has to run on xorg14:39
mobi-sheepgiovani: Few packages would be fine for starters.  It'll give me something to look at.14:39
giovaniI don't know what you're asking for though14:40
mobi-sheepDoes that mean I have to install Ubuntu-desktop or will xorg be sufficient?14:40
giovaniit means running xbmc on ubuntu-server might be a bit of a mess14:40
mobi-sheepgiovani: I simply want to learn more about server packages.14:40
giovaniit's most certainly possible14:40
giovanimobi-sheep: there are thousands14:40
giovanigiven that xbmc is a desktop-oriented application, it's not supported here14:41
mobi-sheepgiovani: Heh.  Alright.  I'm copying system files for XBMC live to usb at the moment.  Thanks for the small talk.  I'll figure out what I'm trying to do.  I think I'm trying to achieve a ultimate HTPC + Home Server type thingy. :)14:43
ruben23hi14:59
ruben23hi how do i change hostname on ubuntu server15:04
_rubenfind all files on the system that refer to the old name, change to new name, reboot :P15:05
ruben23are there modprobe.conf setting on ubuntu server15:20
Hecateruben23, basically that would be /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts, but as _ruben said a 'grep -r "`hostname`" /etc' can't hurt15:20
ruben23Hecate:ok, but how about modprobe.conf can i find that on ubuntu or what is the equivalent config for that on ubuntu15:23
giovaniruben23: ubuntu uses the modprobe.d structure15:23
giovanilook at /etc/modprobe.d/15:23
ruben23giovani:its empty15:29

jdariasi have ubuntu server installed on a laptop. Is it possible to have dpms off everytime i boot it?19:51
jdariascurrently i have to issue sudo vbetool dpms off to turn off the screen (that´s what i want to do)19:52
_rubenjdarias: put "vbetool dpms off" in /etc/rc.local oughta do the trick i'd say19:59
jdariasnobody?19:59
jdariasgonna check that now ruben! :) ty20:00
jdariasbrb, will tell you if it worked or not.20:02
jdariasit worked, ruben, thank you very much!20:07
_rubennice :)20:08
slestak__ruben: would you know how to troubleshoot a usplash problem on a laptop?  It is the only one (of like 20 installs) i have seen the usplash screen distorted.  on livecd boot, it looks correct20:10
Hasbroslestak_, does the livecd use it's own drivers?20:10
slestak_Hasbro: i dont know.  This is not a server problem, we can take to to pm or #ubuntu if anyone has a problem with OT20:11
slestak_i would think the 9.04 livecd would use its own drivers, probably nv, i am using nvidia accel driver with hd install20:11
HasbroMight be best to try #ubuntu ;)20:11
slestak_i was over there (still am) I was talking to _ruben over there, and saw him over here as well20:12
slestak_sorry, i know its OT20:12
slestak_im doing some gparted amnipulations rignt now, so i'll save the usplash problem for another day20:13
slestak_i have 60g available in a logical partition sda4, i really need to get it out of there and into a new primary partition20:17
slestak_i have moved it up to the front of the logical partition, but do not see how to take it any further20:17
_rubenlvm for the win! ;)20:18
slestak_is that the only solution?20:18
slestak_i mean, am i screwed with this install, i can redo it,m just reying to extend and learn20:18
_rubenprobably not, but sure makes things easier20:18
_rubenand whats the real underlying problem? why do you need to move the space ?20:19
slestak_im trying to get xp home onto a primary partition, basically dual boot - ubuntu installed first20:19
slestak_i kinda planned ahead, i have jaunty in an extended partition20:20
_ruben"best" practice is to install windows first .. its has a deep love for the first primary partition, and destroys any unknown bootloaders20:20
slestak_yeah20:21
slestak_well, i keep good backups, im gonna just redo it.20:21
slestak_ty for your counsel :) happy fathers day to you dads in here20:21
