BookmanI'm trying to connect to another computer on my local network.  I can ssh into the machine with no issues.  I just cannot see that same machine via smb and nautilus.05:08
Samofor smb you need to give access to other pc's05:09
BookmanI've done that05:10
BookmanThere is a little more....05:10
BookmanI am going through one router, into another router, into the target machine.  If I connect to the second router, I can connect to the target machine.  If I connect to the first router, I cannot seem to make it through the second router and on to the target machine.05:11
BookmanI hope that made sense!05:12
Samoin the second router smb and nautilus works?05:12
Bookmanyes, no problem05:12
BookmanI have a DMZ setup from router one to router two05:12
Samohmm05:13
Bookmanyeah, kind of strange.05:14
Samorouter manufacturer?05:14
Bookmanrouter one is dlink.  Router two is Belkin05:14
BookmanRouter one also is attached to my cable modem05:16
Samosounds like a port thing to me05:16
BookmanYeah, I just cannot figure it all out05:16
Bookmanssh works perfectly05:16
Samolet me see if i get it05:17
Samor1 and r2 are directly connected?05:18
BookmanYes05:18
BookmanModem>Router 1>Router 205:18
BookmanRouter 1 is also wireless05:18
BookmanRouter 2 is also wireless05:18
BookmanDMZ setup from Router 1 to Router 205:19
Samowhere do woy get the internet?05:20
Samosdo you*05:20
BookmanNot sure what you mean05:20
BookmanI could turn off the internet and would still have the same local network problem05:21
BookmanInternet works great from all machines05:21
Samoi was thinking that maybe the smb requests were being send out to the internet instead of the next hop router05:22
BookmanAh, got you.05:22
BookmanNot sure about that one05:23
grim76Assuming this is home networking gear.  It is possible that the router is still blocking the traffic.  Even though it is in a DMZ might have to create specific forwarding rules to get past it.05:23
geniiBookman: If you use smb://x.x.x.x             (IP of dest box) can it get there?05:24
Bookmangenii: no05:25
geniiAre both routers handing out numbers on same segment? Or is it set statically, etc etc05:26
BookmanSame segment?05:27
BookmanOne is 192.168.0.x05:27
BookmanOne is 192.168.2.x05:27
geniiSo the netmask is then 255.255.0.0 ?05:28
genii192.168.0.x and 192.168.2.x are NOT on same segment05:29
BookmanRouter One is 255.255.255.005:29
genii(unless netmask is 255.255.0.0)05:29
BookmanRouter Two is 255.255.255.005:30
Samowrite the command for the SSH you use05:31
Bookmanssh user@192.168.0.10405:31
grim76Iptables or similar firewall limiting smb traffic to local subnet?05:31
Bookmangrim76: not on purpose05:32
Samostill thinking is a port thing, the ssh is getting there on the LAN IP05:33
Bookmansmb is 445?05:34
genii135 139 I think05:35
geniiNo, 445 (just checked)05:35
Bookmanyeah, tried forwarding....no luck05:37
grim76Is there a single NIC in the samba server?  Maybe SMB is locked down to a single interface?05:38
geniiWhen daisy-chaining routers I usually do something like make router1 192.168.0.1 and give a range like 192.168.0.50-99 and router2 192.168.0.2 and give a range like 192..168.0.100-5005:38
Bookmangenii: should not matter though, no?05:39
geniiBookman: The netmask dictates for instance what IP the smb broadcasts on. So they are broadcasting on 192.168.0.255 on one router and 192.168.2.255 on the other right now05:40
Bookmanhmmmmm05:40
BookmanSo the broadcast address is the issue05:42
BookmanWhat if I can change my broadcast address on Router Two to match Router One?05:43
geniiBookman: As far as the machine offering a service being immediately seen by other boxes not on it's local subnet.05:44
Bookmansubnets are the same though05:45
BookmanMaybe I'm just not getting it05:46
genii1.1.0.x is not on the same subnet as 1.1.1.x if the netmask is not 255.255.0.005:46
BookmanOk, not sure what to change here now05:47
geniiAt any rate, almost 1AM and will require sleep here, so will be /away shortly05:47
Samowith the SN Mask being 255.255.255.0 ... there is then SN 1 = 192.168.1.0 - 255   ... and SN 2 = 192.16805:47
Samoups05:48
Samo... and SN 2 = 192.168.2.0 - 25505:48
BookmanOk, you have my setup information....I'm just not understanding what to change to get it to work here.05:49
Samoa long cable to connect directly to r205:51
Samothere!05:51
BookmanSamo: I can do that via wireless05:51
Samoxd05:52
BookmanBut I have to explain that to my users?05:52

Samothe cisco channel on freenode05:55

andolttx: Curious about something. Sometimes I see you switch bugs from Incomplete to New. Is that to get them showing up in more searches, or is there some other thought?13:30
ttxandol: for me, when there is nothing the reporter can give us it should no longer be in incomplete13:31
ttxit should be in status "new" until we decide between invalid/confirmed13:31
ttxwhich in this case is tricky :)13:31
andolttx: I guess that kind of makes sense. Is there any general policy/guideline/wisedom regarding incomplete->new by the way? Thinking of sending an email to ubuntu-bugsquad@ otherwise.13:34
ttxandol: ideally it should go incomplete -> confirmed/invalid13:34
ttxin this case I wanted it to appear in new lists as needing some attention13:34
andolok13:35
andolttx: Have a few (other) tickets which I'm not really sure what to do with. Perhaps it might be an idea to make them ->new as well?13:36
ttxandol: I'd say they should ne longer be in "incomplete" if there is nothing the reporter can do about them. better set them to NEW to bring them to developers attention13:37
ttxreporters don't like to see the deprecation countdown while they provided all requested info.13:38

uvirtbot`Debian bug 473022 in gitosis "gitosis doesn't work without python-setuptools package" [Serious,Fixed]16:16
mdhafenyep.  dpkg reports python-setuptools installed at version 0.6c9-0ubuntu416:17
geniimdhafen: See perhaps also http://kylecordes.com/2009/04/30/gitosis-ubuntu-jaunty/   which suggests python version may need to be 2.5 and not later16:18
mdhafenI'm looking at that page.  Kyle suggests installing newer packages from the debian pool.  What is your opinion of that suggestion?16:18
geniimdhafen: In the posts below, someone just set their default pythin to be 2.5 instead of 2.6 and found it to work16:19
geniiI'd take that route before installing the debian packages16:20
mdhafenso you don't expect any other package to require python being at 2.6?16:21
geniiYou could test whatever apps you have which may expect some latest version. But I don't expect the changes from 2.5 to 2.6 would be so major as to have much impact16:23
mdhafenok.  I'll try shifting python down then.  Thanks.16:23

stercorgenii: How?  I believe I'm using mod_so.16:41
jdstrandofnqwop: the ufw cli command is useful for host-based firewalling, not routing. You can add iptables-restore style rules to /etc/ufw/before.rules for routing if you need routing16:42

stercorgenii: that was too easy!  Thanks a bunch.16:45

geniistercor: You're welcome16:45
jdstrandofnqwop: you can fine-tune that behavior by updating /etc/ufw/before.rules16:45
stercorgenii: do I have to do this every time I reboot?16:46
ofnqwopoh ok, /etc/ufw/before.rules is the ip-tables script generated by ufw?16:46
jdstrandofnqwop: not exactly16:46
jdstrandofnqwop: see /usr/share/doc/ufw/README.gz for details16:47
ofnqwopok16:47
jdstrandofnqwop: see 'Layout' and possibly 'Chains'16:48
ofnqwopk, thx16:48
geniistercor: No, it will auto-load now the module every time apache starts normally16:52
stercorgenii: Thanks again.16:52

stercorOf the 193 people in this channel, can someone enlighten me on Ubuntu's mechanism to get Apache2 and PostgreSQL working?17:33
otacon1221Which is better at allocating bandwidth, a dedicated router running NAT, DHCP, DNS, and WPA2 or a Linux server gateway running the same services?18:01
ballotacon1221: depends.18:03
ball...but the Linux server is going to be more futureproof.18:03
ball...and more flexible.18:03
giovani|workso, linux is a dedicated router if you make it one18:04
giovani|workmany consumer routers run linux18:04
ballgiovani: good point.18:04
giovani|workand a few commercial routers run some unix-type kernel18:04
giovani|workat the highest-end, typically the commercial devices will outperform a generic linux kernel18:04
ballgiovani: BSD?18:04
giovani|workbut you're not likely to be interested in the highest-end if you're asking18:04
giovani|workball: some, yeah18:05
giovani|workyour linux device will definitely outperform the features of a typical embedded router18:05
ballI have a machine here I've been planning to make a router out of.18:05

refnumzxi am trying to configure dansguardian filtergroups under ubuntu jaunty. i have followed several how tos and when i set users to filter2 which is  suppoed to be unfiltered, they still get blocked. advice.18:52
Fenix|workGreetings and Salutations to one and all.18:54
Fenix|workAny Ubuntu admins here who have to deal with Windows boxes?18:57
giovani|workFenix|work: on occasion, sure18:57
* Fenix|work grumbles about Windows... too bad it pays the bills.18:58
giovani|worklinux can pay more bills, generally18:58
Fenix|workgiovani, I want to set up a syslog server and collect logs from all my windows, linux and cisco boxes.18:58
Fenix|workthe last two are easy... the first, not so much.  I'm looking for suggestions.18:58
giovani|workFenix|work: sounds like a good idea18:58
ballFenix: I probably qualify18:58
Fenix|workgiovani|work, I think so too... but I have two questions... a) how to get windows to syslog it's logs... and b) how to sort through all this data.19:00
Fenix|workball, qualify for which, windows paying the bills, or dealing with windows boxes?19:00
ballDealing with windows boxen, but at least they're on the desktop.  No Windows servers.19:01
Fenix|workyeah, I have the entire windows infrastructure to deal with19:03
Fenix|workanyone have any ideas on how to parse through all those syslogs?19:04
Fenix|workI think there's an ntsyslog agent so I think I might have that aspect covered... but logs are useless if you can't get anything meaningful from them in a timely manner.19:04
ballFenix: Still, at least you're working, eh?19:04
Fenix|workI'm a windows admin who converted19:05
* ball nods19:05
ballI've looked after Windows servers in the past, as part of some database work.  I wasn't that impressed.19:05
ball...for servers that I have control over, Windows isn't on the list.19:06
Fenix|workI started playing with linux when the kernel was 0.95 on an IBM AIX server ... couldn't properly compile floppy drivers for it.19:06
Fenix|workthen I switched to windows from Novell at my place of employ because it made sense19:07
Fenix|workbut then I became a convert and am slowly moving servers to linux...19:07
Fenix|workany recommendations for parsing through syslog files?19:08
Fenix|workvast amounts of them too... hehe19:08
=== vraa is now known as vraa_work
jmedinaFenix|work: probably using a different syslog daemon like syslog-ng which has more filters than sysklogd19:11
jmedinaor probably rsyslog19:11
ballFenix: I recommend coffee.19:12
ballCurrently I run NetBSD on the few production servers I look after, but Ubuntu Server looks very promising indeed, so I'm hoping to migrate to that.19:13
Fenix|workI'm using 8.04LTS and it's rock solid19:15
ballI've been running it for a while on a casual Web server, but I want to try it on something more modern.19:15
ball(something that can virtualise a few of my old boxen)19:16
Fenix|workI have Ubuntu server running on several HP ProLiant servers19:16
Fenix|workthe most powerful one I have now is a ProLiant DL 380 G5 with 32GB RAM and two quad core xeon processors19:16
Fenix|workruns my web, database and ftp server19:17
Fenix|workI have another DL380 that runs cvs and php/mysql for buzilla and a bunch of other miscellaneous web services that are internal.19:17
Fenix|workanother is a full on proxy and another a reverse proxy.19:18
* Fenix|work grumbles about the pain in the ass it was to reverse proxy microsoft exchange web outlook.19:18
Fenix|workball, so what's coffee?19:20
Fenix|workbesides a tasty beverage that I can't live without19:20
ballFenix: that's the one.19:20
ballFenis: do you use Smart Array RAID controllers at all?19:21
ballOur ML110 has a Smart Array E200 that I'm sure will work with Ubuntu, but I want to make sure I can query the health of the array remotely19:22
ball(it lives 130 miles away from me)19:22

genii!coffee19:26
ubottucoffee is a caffeinated beverage made by filtering hot water through ground up roasted beans of the coffee plant. Flavouring to taste such as milk or cream, sugar or sweetener are often added afterwards. Not to be confused with !java19:26
