brunokrebshi there05:49
brunokrebsif my firewall rules are empty, and I type "iptables -P OUTPUT DROP" this will revoke any rules about outputs that I might add after that?05:50
* ball stares blankly05:50
qman__no05:57
qman__that will cause it to drop all traffic unless rules specify otherwise05:57
qman__if you want to clear all your rules, use "iptables -F"05:57
brunokrebsyes, thanks06:04
brunokrebsI asked that because I was reading a book that have some examples06:05
brunokrebsbut the examples are not working properly06:05
brunokrebsand I thouth it could be that first rule that they told me to put06:05
brunokrebsthat is drop from the three chains06:05
brunokrebsbut I made a few tests now and I could find that other rules can revoke this drop all first rule06:06
brunokrebsthanks again06:06
brunokrebsthought*06:09
brunokrebsok I was able to, after setting the firewall to drop all from all chains, ping the localhost adding a few rules06:28
brunokrebslike: "iptables -A INPUT -i localhost -j ACCEPT" and "iptabls -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT"06:29
brunokrebsbut I can't accomplish to enable access to a server outside, like google06:30
brunokrebshow would I do that?06:30

DustanHey guys, I'm pulling out my hair here, hoping someone can offer some solutions to my issue.07:24
DustanI am moving a site from a managed host to a vps07:24
DustanI am running ubuntu 8.04 on my vps07:24
Dustanon of the sites I am moving over uses a form/php script to email my client when they want a quote07:25
Dustanhttp://www.harrysflooring.com/contact.html07:25
Dustanphp file processing the form07:26
Dustanhttp://pastebin.com/d43357a3407:26
DustanI set up a simple lamp server and planned to use google apps for email07:26
DustanHow can I make this function without the fun of setting up a full blown mail server on my vps07:26
Dustan? 1,000,000 internet points to man/lady who can save my day07:27
ballDustan: why not have it dump them to a flat file and use something like logrotate to chop that up for downloading via rsync or sftp?07:36
ballHang on though, you wouldn't need a main /server/, just a scriptable mail user agent07:37
ball(something like the ancient Berkeley mail program, which could mail text from standard input)07:37
Dustanhere is the thing, I am a very young server admin, less than a year, so some of this stuff is way over my head. I am getting a grasp of things though.07:41
Dustanwould installing postfix fix my problem>07:41
Dustanthe form/php functioned fine on my managed host07:41
ballNo07:41
ballAt least, not without potentially introducing many more.07:42
DustanI see.07:42
DustanIt's funny, when I found google apps I though that all my email nightmares were over.07:43
ballMail wouldn't be my choice.07:44
ballDoes your VPS have any kind of database on it?07:45
Dustanmysql07:45
Dustanit's a linode, it can have whatever we want07:45
ballJust tuck them away in a table somewhere and add an admin interface that lets your customer click a button and download the lot.07:46
Dustanwhat about  ssmtp07:47
ballputting mail on your Web server is a bad idea in my opinion because of what could happen when your VPS is compromised07:48
DustanWhat he like about the email was I could have the email cc'd to his cell xxx-xxx-xx@phoneservice.com07:48
* ball shrugs07:49
Dustanhe could call the contact from his worksite07:49
ballHe'll like that until the spammers hit.07:49
Dustancaptchas?07:50

Byron_Hello everyone. Thank you all for your help in getting my Ubuntu LAMP server setup. It's running, I can SSH to it from my phone (G1), FTP from my desktop and netbook, but I can't access the index.php file as it tries to download rather than display.17:27
Byron_What would cause this to happen? All appears to be installed and running for Apache and php517:27
=== Byron_ is now known as Byron
=== Jguy| is now known as Jguy
Byronwhen I use 'curl -i http://My.Own.IP.Address' I get the contents of what would display online, but my browser keeps trying to download the index.php file as opposed to displaying it on the browser.17:52
ByronSo it seems that I can only view the contents when I use a browser as root18:05
ByronIs there a way around this (leaving it as root:root) or should I chown it to $USER:$USER?18:06
ByronSo it seems that chown'ing to $USER:$USER was the solution for /var/www18:13
Byronwww was set to 755, if that doesn't add some oddity18:23

jaredstereven after I installed cups, cupsys, and cupsys-client20:55
heath|homeyou're using 6.06?20:59

jaredsterheath|home, do you have any idea?21:06
heath|homeI'm not sure why it wouldn't be there. Do you want me to pastebin mine?21:09
jaredsteryes please21:10
heath|homejaredster: did you install cups-common?21:10
jaredsteryes21:11

heath|homehere are the packages I have installed: http://pastie.org/54257321:13
jaredsterI'm kind of new to this.  I'm installing this for the house.21:14
jaredsterIsn't cups.d supposed to be a directory21:14
heath|homejaredster: are you installing a server for your house?21:14
jaredsteryep21:15
heath|homejaredster: look into ebox, it makes all this stuff a breeze21:15
* ScottK encourages continued learning about how the system works.21:16
heath|homeI think it's even in the guide21:16
jaredsterI've already invested too much time into this21:16
jaredsterI don't think I'm going to install an other distro21:16
jaredsterthis is just one of the few things I'm trying to set up really21:17
heath|homewell, ebox runs on ubuntu. It looks like everything you need is in the dir, what exactly is not working?21:17
jaredsterno cups.d directory, the ubuntu guide tells you to edit files in it21:18
jaredster/etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf21:18
heath|homeI don't have that dir either...21:18
jaredsterweird21:18
jaredsterand yours works fine?21:18
heath|homenor do I have that file21:19
jaredsterso that guide is wrong then21:19
heath|homejaredster: http://www.debianadmin.com/setup-cups-common-unix-printing-system-server-and-client-in-debian.html21:22
jaredsterthanks heath|home21:23
jaredsteri'll try that21:23
heath|homeThat explains what cupsd.conf needs21:23
jaredsterthanks heath|home22:14
jaredsterthe main page is up now22:14

heath|homeThat's always the best way to do it!22:15
jaredsterlol22:15
jaredsterI mean the server is in an other state22:16
jaredsterso that's always fun22:16
jaredsteropenssh ftw22:17
jaredsteri'm getting an "426 Upgrade Required" whenever I try to access anything other than the main page.22:19
heath|homemain page being site:631 ?22:19
jaredsteryes22:20
jaredsterbut if I access server:631/admin I get the error.22:20
jaredsterthen it trys to redirect me to the lanip:631, which won't work because I'm not on the network.22:20
heath|homehttp://desk.stinkpot.org:8080/tricks/index.php/2007/05/cups-problems-426-upgrade-required/22:20
jaredsteryeah I tried that, people are saying that removing the encryption fixes it22:21
jaredsterwhich is not the case here.22:21
heath|homelooks like you just need to add two lines for configuring remotely22:21
jaredsterwhich lines?22:22
heath|homejaredster: did you try using https://22:22
jaredsterwow that worked22:23
jaredsterthanks!22:23
