JDSheweyHey, having trouble rebuilding a RAID0 array.02:32
JDSheweyWhey I run mdadm --create I get /dev/sda1: device or resource busy and for /dev/sdb2 (and two other partitions) I get "this device appears to be part of an array". Any suggestions?02:32
JDShewey/dev/sda1 is unmounted and is part type linux raid autodetect02:32
WHARRGARBLWhat is irda0?02:51
WHARRGARBLHow much space does Ubuntu server need to install?02:57
JDSheweyDepends on what you are serving.02:57
WHARRGARBLHow much data will the installer install?02:59
WHARRGARBLminus the content I put on02:59
twbWHARRGARBL: half a GiB is probably a recommended minimum for the root OS02:59
twbYou could squeeze it down further, or blow it up larger.02:59
twbUsually I allocate two to four GiB to the root filesystem, simply because I'm working with large (1TiB) disks and an extra GiB isn't noticable.02:59
WHARRGARBLDoes ubuntu server support Intel 22000BG wireless cards?03:01

twbWHARRGARBL: lspci output will help.03:02

mobi-sheepServers.  What is the best way to run VLC?  I want to install a simple Xorg and VLC.  Nothing more.  Nothing less.03:41
twbmobi-sheep: that's not a server.03:42
mobi-sheeptwb: I know.  I'm running a XBMC Live and it's jerky so I wanted to try installing Xorg and VLC.  I figured you guys would knew the answers.03:47
twbI don't know what an XBMC is.03:47
mobi-sheepProbably because you guys do install a simple GUI sometimes in a while or at least gave out commands?03:47
twbmobi-sheep: we generally disapprove of that.03:47
mobi-sheeptwb: Xbox Media Center.  It's a nice HTPC (also can be a server).03:48
twbXBMC is software that runs on an Xbox?03:52
mobi-sheeptwb: Well.  Originally, yes. But now it's able to run on Mac + Linux + Windows.03:53
mobi-sheeptwb: But that's not the point.  Basically, I got XBMC.  No GUI.  Nothing else.  I know TTY too.  However, I was wondering what package I would need to run a simple Xorg so I can run VLC under X.03:53
twbOK, so you are running XBMC as a package on your ubuntu server?03:54
mobi-sheepI used XBMC Live iso.  It's messed up so naturally I'm going to try building it out of minimal.iso because XBMC Live does not configure graphic card or anything.  It just ran.  Kinda felt like I'm missing out on certain factors.03:55
mobi-sheeptwb: Well it didn't mess up, but the video jerks every 5 seconds or so forget XBMC Live.  I found a guide that'll let me build it out of mini.iso which I will do.03:56
mobi-sheeptwb: The real question would be -- What packages do I need to run applications under X simple as possible?03:58
twbSorry, I was just trying to understand what you were doing.04:03
twbTo get *just* X running, you want to install xserver-xorg-core, or the larger xserver-xorg package.04:04
twbYou will probably also want to install packages that e.g. start X when you turn the computer on, and provide 3D acceleration, and maybe also packages that provide a window manager and a terminal emulator.04:04
twbFor details about that you should really ask another channel, since graphical stuff is offtopic for this channel.04:04
mobi-sheeptwb: Ahh.  Thank you.04:06
mobi-sheeptwb: I'll figure out what I'm trying to accomplish. ;304:06

andenwPC_Nerd101: default runlevel in ubuntu is 2, so rc2.d is the best place. But the standard way to install rc-scripts is with update-rc.d which installs in all rc*.d folders.08:36

dbakeranyone using paver, fabric or another automated tool for server setup/deployment?14:17
acalvoHi y'all!14:24
acalvoI'm migrating from an old server to a new one, and while trying to move all my LDAP tree I found that the userPassword attribute it's not following the same encryption14:25
acalvois there any way to force it?14:25
Sam-I-Amwhat was it using?14:31
Sam-I-Amthe default now, if unspecified, is ssha14:31
Sam-I-Amfor reading passwords, though, it shouldnt matter since the hash type is before it in the attribute like.. {HASH}password14:31
acalvoI know14:40
acalvobut I've tried the same string in both servers14:40
acalvoand they gave me different outputs14:40
acalvohowever, I've tried a simple one, and the result is the same14:40
acalvoa bit confusing...14:40
Sam-I-Amwhats in your config file?14:48
RoyKcan I use the ubuntu usb creator to create a fedora boot stick?14:58
bitprophetdbaker: I use Fabric15:00
bitprophetright now, primarily for OS setup/install, and some deployment of Django apps15:00
bitprophetfabric executes locally and is in Python, is the main difference15:05
bitprophetit also has some extra layers on top of common shell tasks that sometimes make stuff easier (i.e. a contains method that's just a wrapper around grep, etc)15:05
dbakerbitprophet: what do you mean by: 'run locally' ?15:06
dbakerbitprophet: on my machine and not on the server I'm trying to setup?15:06
bitprophetwell a bash script would have to be copied to the remote machine and then executed there, whereas fabric runs locally and executes commands over ssh15:06
bitprophetcorrect15:06
dbakerbitprophet: are paver and fabric suppose to serve the same purpose?15:07
bitprophetI've not used Paver much, but in my understanding there is some overlap but paver is more of a build tool whereas Fabric focuses more on the deployment/scripting15:07
bitprophetbut there's probably a lot that could be done in either one just fine15:07
bitprophetI'd try both and see which one you like more15:07
dbakerbitprophet: what do you mean by "a build tool" and "deployment/scripting" ?15:10
dbakerbitprophet: if I want to setup a server with nginx, django, postgresql... is this a deployment task?15:10
heath|workI am getting an error on --suite=intrepid  for vmbuilder. There is an intrepid JeOS, right?15:16
stiValhello people! I'm having a little trouble automagically updating from gutsy to hardy. The update is being started by a script in run, that has no frontend.15:40
stiValaptitude is called with this: /usr/bin/aptitude -o Aptitude::Log::=/tmp/aptitude-log -q -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confnew -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confmiss15:41
stiValit seems this is not enough?15:41
stiValit gets stuck with the libssl package --- which tries to ask which services to restart, but i want it to start them anyways15:42
stiValsry, i forget - additional aptitude parameters: "-s -V -y 2>&1"15:42
bitprophetdbaker: sorry, didn't notice your reply :(15:43
bitprophetdbaker: in my totally non scientific terminology, "build" involves more setting stuff up locally, compiling, writing out config or xml files, etc; "deploy" or "script" means to install or modify software or applications15:43
bitprophetbut I'm pretty sure paver can execute commands over ssh, and fabric can set up dependencies for easy local building, so they technically overlap. the differences would be in syntax and the extra tools provided to make certain types of tasks easier15:44
bitprophet(which is why I suggested to try both :))15:45

Marticusanybody familiar with michael jang's books?16:04
stiValor asked a little shorter: What do I need to do, so debconf is NOT asking ANY questions and using the default values and actions?16:07
bitprophetstiVal: when I need to noninteractively run apt stuff and it hangs with debconf asking questions, I've found I often have to figure out the name of the debconf "setting" (not sure what the right term is) and stick that in debconf's database with debconf-set-selections16:11
bitprophetso for example when I autoinstall systems with mysql or postfix, I do e.g. "echo mysql-server mysql-server/root_password password <secret> | debconf-set-selection"16:12
bitprophetto set a default mysql root password16:12
bitprophetalso pretend I had the quotes in the right place there16:12
bitprophetanother example, echo "postfix postfix/relayhost string mail.my.domain" | debconf-set-selection16:13
bitprophet /end blather16:13
bitprophetif you've ever dealt with preseed files, it's the same format since it's all just debconf16:13
stiValyes i have ... it's just really anoying, that there is no way to be sure that NO package is asking questions. i don't care what the configurations look like since there is a middleware that takes care of my configurations - everything else can and should be default (no passwords or whatever)16:14
stiValnot every system is the same or has the same configuration - that's why the middleware is there - taking care of every package that could ask a question in all the different cases is nearly impossible for me16:16
stiValbut thanks - I'll look into that, if at least this time i can make it work your way ;)16:16
bitprophetyea, I hear you.16:25

jeiworthhi all, we're a small company (7 users) and my boss has asked me to install a groupware solution, so first i was looking at zimbra, which looks great but you never know what will happen to it if microsoft ever buys yahoo (well, actually we probably all know what will happen ;)) so i am not so sure i want to use it, next on the list are openxchange and opengroupware, does anyone here have experience with either 3 of these solutions? or other recom17:48
jeiworth worth looking into for that matter? thanks!17:48
ivoksi've worked with zimbra17:48
heath|workivoks, quota = maildir:User quota17:48
ScottKjeiworth: Most of Zimbra is free software.  You might also look at what proprietary bits they add on and if they aren't critical, don't worry about it.17:49
heath|workjeiworth, I have used eGroupware, open-exchange(like a lot), and Zimbra17:49
ivoksheath|work: which dovecot version is that?17:49
heath|work1.1.1117:50
heath|workfor jaunty17:50
jeiworthivoks: ok, what is your impression? especially regarding outlook, entourage and kontact compatibility? :)17:50
ivoksit was used in ubuntu-only environment17:50
jeiworthScottK: yes, i think a lot of it is under the gpl, right17:50
ivoksand everybody used web interface17:50
ScottKjeiworth: Or various other Free licenses, yes.17:51
jeiworthheath|work: open-xchange you like a lot or you have been using a lot? :)17:51
jmedinaI offer zimbra as a solution to get rid of outlook and any other desktop client17:51
heath|workjeiworth, I like it a lot and will be using it a lot as I replace other servers17:51
jeiworthivoks: i doubt i can convince the hardcore windows users here to only use the web interface17:51
ivoksheath|work: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/1.117:51
heath|workivoks, that's what I have run through to get what I have.17:52
ivoksjeiworth: afaik, outlook plugin isn't free in any way17:52
jeiworthheath|work: what about egroupware? the advantage would be that its in the ubuntu repos but probably an older version17:52
ivoksheath|work: you said you enabled plugin in imap protocol?17:52
heath|workubuntu reps our way out dated when it comes to egroupware17:53
jmedinazimbra desktop works fine, and also uses lots of resources, so the better choice is use web interface, and of course train your users :)17:53
jeiworthivoks: well, that is the problem of my boss, i dont think it would be a problem paying som bucks for a decent stable plugin17:53
heath|workAlthough I saw eBox was integrating eGroupware into it17:53
ScottKOTOH if you're using Outlook on your desktops, a non-free plugin shouldn't worry you too much17:53
jeiworthjmedina: hehe yeah, but some users simply don't want to be taught ;)17:54
jmedinajeiworth: well they have no choice, it is the cost of migrating...17:55
heath|workivoks, in imap I have: mail_plugins = autocreate quota17:55
heath|workautocreate is working perfect17:55
jeiworthok, so open-xchange or zimbra it is...hmm...zimbra needs to be installed on a dedicated (virtual) machine iirc17:55
jmedinajeiworth: most of my implementations requiere that, no deskto client17:55
ivoksfor zimbra, i'd suggest install it and never touch it again17:56
ivoks:)17:56
heath|workjeiworth, we used zimbra but it would allow read receipts and everyone was pissed17:56
jeiworthjmedina: i prefer that too but you know, some people just _want_ to use their outlook no matter what. :-/17:56
heath|workthey may have fixed that by now though17:56
jeiworthheath|work: can't that be deactivated globally?17:57
jmedinajeiworth: jejejee, then they will loose all great features of web interface17:57

a1fawhat server?20:47
divanHi all - quick question has any one tried unattended upgrades (autoupdates) on ubuntu-server20:47
jason__a piece of shit p4 i had lying around20:47
a1fathere you go20:47
jason__the PSU was making a crazy high pitched sound all day yesterday20:48
divani've tried it on 8.04.2 and 9.04. I often see updates available but they only seem to get applied if I manually do an apt-get update and then wait one night. Surely theres a setting to apply it quicker20:48
a1faok20:48
a1faare you sure its not the hard-drive20:48
a1fathat was making noise?20:48
jason__yeah, i'm sure20:48
a1fadivan : apt-get dist-ugprade20:48
jason__i turned it off and back on again20:48
a1fajason__ : its trashed20:48
a1fait might have friend your hard-drive20:48
jason__the HD?20:48
a1fafried*20:48
a1fayeah20:48
a1faboth20:48
a1faPSU nd HD20:48
jason__yeah, that's what i'm thinking...20:48
a1fashit happens20:48
jason__damn20:48
a1fahopefully I know you have backups20:49
a1fa:)20:49
jason__i have backups that aren't nearly as recent as i'd like20:49
jason__never got around to setting up a raid array20:49
jason__oh well20:49
a1fa:P20:49
a1fasuck-ah!20:49
a1fahehe20:49
a1fai am dealing with crap myself20:49
jason__at least i wasn't paying $10 / month to share a computer with 200 people ;P20:49
a1faDell 26500 raid10 is not really20:50
a1faraid1020:50
divanalfa: I know I can apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y however thats not the point - the point is unattended - the ubuntu recommended way as per documentation doesn't work very well.20:50
a1fadivan20:50
a1faask for your money back and help fix the documentation20:50
a1fawhy the hell do you do unattended upgrades20:50
a1faanyway20:50
a1fayou are just asking for trouble20:50
divanalfa: Its not ask for trouble its a good security thing to do, it emails you the results anyway. In some scenarios it good practice. I understand I can contribute to the documentation - thats for pointing out the obvious20:52
a1fa:)20:52
a1fathanks for making ubuntu better, divan!20:52
divanMy question was because this being the ubuntu-server channel you would think someone tried the ubuntu server suggested documentaion practice and has some feedback regarding it.20:52
a1fagood point20:56
rsrhi20:57
a1faih20:58
rsrI have an ubuntu server running squid and apache. I installed ebox and sarg. Ebox is working fine but when I try to access the squid-reports from the lan I get a network timeout error. Although... if I use links to access it from the server I can do it with no problem. Maybe its an apache problem or something else?20:59
a1fano21:00
a1fait probably has access list set to 127.0.0.121:00
a1faor something along those lines21:00
rsrhow would I resolve this issue? where can I disable that?21:00
rsrin apache´s site configuration?21:01
rsrI do think youre at least partially right since after every apache reload I get this message: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName21:02
heath|workrsr, edit your host file21:25
rsrheath|work: I saw in /etc/hosts that there was an entry 127.0.1.1 myubuntu... so I changed it to 192.168.0.25221:29
heath|work192.168.0.252 myubuntu.domain.tld myubuntu21:30
rsrheath|work: I just want to access through the ip... so I dont need a domain name21:30
heath|workrsr, apache needs the fqdn no matter how you are accessing it21:31
heath|workhostname -f    should be the fqdn of the server.21:31
rsrhostname -f returned myubuntu21:31
rsrheath|work: I guess that isnt my problem....Im getting a network timeout21:32
heath|workLots of network issues can be caused by host name problems21:33
rsrheath|work: but the other site on the same server works fine21:33
rsrheath|work: it is https though21:33
heath|workYou will have problems with your cert for https if you redo your host name, but I do think you should give the machine a fqdn.21:35
heath|workFor all local stuff I use name.something.local21:35
a1facan anyone send me a link to vmwave patch21:43

akoimeexxAnyone know of a good channel to get ircd-hybrid support on ubuntu server?21:56
