[04:24] Hi, Im running ubuntu server and trying to setup a network bridge using my wireless card to connect to my wireless router and my ethernet port to let my xbox 360 connect to the internet. I have gotten my computer to connect to the router just fine, but when I try setting up the bridge I lose connection to the router. Im using wpa-supplicant and my network config is as follows: # This file describes the network interfaces avail [04:24] # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). [04:24] # The loopback network interface [04:24] auto lo [04:24] iface lo inet loopback [04:24] #Wireless Connection [04:24] auto ra0 [04:24] iface ra0 inet static [04:24] address 192.168.10.3 [04:24] netmask 255.255.255.0 [04:24] network 192.168.10.0 [04:24] brodcast 192.168.10.255 [04:24] gateway 192.168.10.1 [04:24] #Local Bridge [04:24] # The wired network interface [04:24] auto eth0 [04:24] iface eth0 inet manual [04:24] address 192.168.10.4 [04:24] netmask 255.255.255.0 [04:24] network 192.168.10.0 [04:24] broadcast 192.168.10.255 [04:24] gateway 192.168.10.1 [04:24] auto br0 [04:24] iface br0 inet static [04:24] bridge_ports eth0 ra0 [04:24] address 192.168.10.5 [04:24] netmask 255.255.255.0 [04:25] any one have any ideas? [04:25] p.s. I'm totaly new to irc, so sorry if I make a fool of myself [04:27] binzyw: you should only need to assign an IP to the br0 interface, not the other individual interfaces. that might be causign you headaches [04:29] binzyw: btw: where possible, use a service like pastebin to put anything over 2 lines for people to view. lots of info appearing suddenly (like you pasted) in a channel can be very conversation disturbing, and is usually considered rather rude (no offence taken btw). [04:30] ok, Ill do that next time, and thanks Ill try removing the IPs from the other interfaces [04:31] you don't even need the other interfaces defined in /etc/network/interfaces btw. [04:31] oh and remember to add a gateway to the br0 interface [04:32] dont I need ra0 so that my wirless card will connect to my router? [04:32] that in fact is probably your main issue [04:32] as long as ra0 is in the 'bridge_ports' section of br0, then you shouldn't need it. [04:32] for ever domain name i host do i need to create a master zone? [04:33] chrisellis: if you mean bind/dns stuff, then yes, or you need to have a master somewhere that you slave off. [04:35] cef: well i have name servers set up on my server so do i just put my name servers on the domain and then add a new master zone? or how does it work [04:35] chrisellis: as long as it's actually a different 'domain' and just just a different name though' eg: www.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com are all the same domain, but different names. [04:35] cef: right yeah these are completely different names [04:35] chrisellis: so you've set up bind (or something similar), yes? [04:36] cef: yes [04:36] ok, you need to look in the bind config (probably /etc/bind/named.conf.local [04:37] ScottK: Oh, FFS, now that glibc built successfully, it's tripping on the silly kernel version check. Argh. [04:37] you just need another 'master' entry, and to point it at the correct master file. [04:37] I'm actually using webmin even though its not supported ... but iv'e created a new virtual server with the name of the new domain [04:38] ScottK: We'll get that sorted... [04:38] chrisellis: ok.. not used webmin in years.. so i've got no idea on that sorry [04:38] cef: i would like to do it with the actual config files so i know exactly whats goin gon [04:39] chrisellis: ok. look in /etc/bind/ [04:39] chrisellis: in there are a bunch of config files (named.conf, and a bunch of others, some of them are included into the main one) [04:40] i've got named.conf named.conf.local and longhornrepair.com.hosts [04:40] db.loca, db.root db.127 etc [04:41] in there somewhere should be an entry that starts with 'zone "domain.com" {' or similar (replace domain.com with your known working domain) [04:41] probably in named.conf.local [04:41] cef: if i do this stuff manually will it mess up webmin >? [04:42] chrisellis: I dunno.. if webmin is smart, no. it may even tell you (in comments in those files) how to keep webmin up to date or where in webmin to edit this stuff [04:42] looking won't break anything at any rate [04:43] k [04:43] yeahi have a zones.rfc1918 [04:44] look in named.conf.local and look for a text line that starts with 'zone "domain.com" {' [04:44] k yeah i see that in that file [04:45] the type is master [04:46] yup.. says it's authorative for the zone. the 'file' statement tells it where to find the details for the domain (eg: my guess in your case it has 'file "/etc/bind/longhornrepair.com.hosts"' [04:46] yeah [04:46] so do i need to create a slave zone under my master zone? [04:46] slave is if you aren't the master [04:47] ie: you host details, but you're not the one that updates the details [04:47] usually it's a different machine (for the same domain) [04:47] oh ahh gotcha [04:47] well im going to have all my domains in the same folder or their root directorys [04:48] btw: you might want to read up on 'bind', as it's probably going to be much easier [04:48] cef: yeah im pretty sure this is really easy im just an idiot [04:48] cef: i just for some reason can't grasp how this all works... [04:48] so when I removed the other two interfaces and added the gatway I lost my connection to the rest of the network. (which really sucks because Im sshing in). any other suggestions? [04:49] i've got longhornpcrepair.com working... and im guessing i can use the same name servers [04:49] but the short version: for every domain you host a DNS for, you need a new file (eg: longhornrepair.com.hosts) and a new entry in named.conf.local that defines the domain details [04:50] okay so if i have a domain using my name servers i need to create a new entry in that file [05:00] by creating a new file ... I would be creating a what? [05:06] a dns zone [05:10] I don't know why i can't understand that [05:10] this [05:11] Do i point the new domain to the same IP and the virtual server will see it and point it to the correct directory [05:14] chrisellis: yup! same ip, different name, the ebserver will see it as the other name [05:14] like cef said, you need to tell bind about the zone file by editing the bind configuration file, named.conf.local. [05:15] would it be a master zone ? [05:15] hey, you need to just read an introduction to dns/bind [05:15] it's not hard [05:15] just relax and find the time to read [05:16] could you point me to any good ones [05:17] google for it [05:18] oreilly has a classic on it, might want to check that [05:19] Hello everyone [05:19] hi, i ma tying to join to the domain a Domain member server but I got error: failed to get machine password for account INTERBASE$: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE ...somebody know this error? [05:20] Quick question. Hope someone can help. I can't seem to FTP with the domain, but I can do so locally only. This is with vsftpd. Is there some special setup for virtual hosting? === Byron_ is now known as Byron [05:44] Hi, I created a CSR using openssl, and have a godaddy.com signed certificate to use for postfix/sasl. I see references to .pem in /etc/postfix/main.cf but I do not have a .pem file nor did I receive one from godaddy ssl -- I only have .key and .crt. How to resolve this? [05:56] netritious: Linux/unix is generally not fussy about file name "extensions". Try copying the .crt to a .pem file, or if necessary, cat both of the files from godaddy together into a single .pem file. [05:59] jmarsden: thank you. i did receive another file gd_bundle.crt which has two certificates as one. Should I use that - rename to .pem? [06:00] netritious: Or simply put the .crt as smtpd_tls_cert_file= and .key as smtpd_tls_key_file=. [06:00] netritious: As jmarsden said, the file extessions itself doesn't really matter. [06:01] andol: that makes sense. I'll give it a shot. thanks [06:01] netritious: Possibly. As andol said, it depends whether the software needs to see one file with both parts in it, or the key and the public cert separately. [06:02] jmarsden, netritious: postfix can handle the key and cert separate just fine. It is also possible to bundle both the certificate and key in the same file, as the smtpd_tls_key_file=. [06:05] netritious: "man 5 postconf" will provide you with some explainations what those diffrent options in /etc/postfix/main.cf do. [06:13] where can i see apaches httpd.conf file to see my virtual servers [06:15] chrisellis: The normal place to put apache vhosts configuration, on a Debian/Ubuntu system, is under /etc/apache2/sites-available/. No idea where you have put your :) [06:19] Does anyone know how to setup vsftpd for virtual hosts? [06:19] oh well its set up correctly [06:22] Byron: Not sure if that term really applies on a ftp server. But perhaps I'm misstaken, what functionally are you asking for? [06:24] andol: I can FTP successfully with the command line (terminal/konsole/yakuake), but when I use FileZilla, I can only do it with the IP address behind my router. [06:24] This is also behind my own network. Fails outside of the network. [06:25] Byron: Is your network based NAT? In other words, does it use internal ip adresses? [06:27] andol: yes [06:29] can someone dig wwmcd.org for me por favor [06:31] Byron: Well, seems more like something which you have to configure in your local "router". For that to work well you might also want to tell vsftpd which data ports to use. [06:31] Byron: But I'm off for work now, hopefully someone else can continue to help you. [06:31] andol: the router knowns to forward IP requests [06:48] chrisellis: http://pastebin.com/f29dbbc55 [06:48] jmarsden: thank you... its not seeing my ip for some reason [06:49] Right. Cgeck your bind config files and log files. [06:49] *Check [06:50] and for each domain i have to set up another master zone [06:51] could you check it again por favor [06:53] Same deal as before. [06:53] Have you run named-checkconf to look for errors in your named config file(s)? [06:54] no [06:54] Might be worth a try. man named-checkconf [06:54] http://wwmcd.org [06:55] it looks like its working actually [06:55] Not from here. [06:55] whaa [06:55] weird [06:55] Maybe only internally... who are you allowing to query that zone? [06:56] its someone on an outside connection [06:56] there getting the index of the directory [06:58] It works from your DNs server but not from the ns1.everydns.net and ns2.everydns.net ones. [06:58] So it is random whether it works ... depends which DNS server gets picked! [06:58] oh okay [06:58] i actually don't think i've been able to get those stupid dns's to work [06:58] Then don't leave them in the DNS at the registrar :) [06:59] wonderful. build up a machine to host 4 VM's, and the hard drives start failing just as I get close to production.. *sigh* [06:59] are they working on http://longhornpcrepair.com [07:00] dig them yourself to check... dig @ns1.everydns.net longhornpcrepair.com [07:00] Looks broken to me. [07:13] is there any reason you guys know why everydns's name servers wouldn't be able to receive the master record .. just off the top of your head [07:13] Because your named config doesn't allow them AXFR access to that zone on your server? read your logs... [07:50] please somebody can help me....im trying to join the domian and I got :failed to get schannel session key from server XXX fro domain YYY...what it mean?

[13:33] Good day to the Ubuntu server community. I was hoping to get some help :) I'm new to the Ubuntu server, and I'm not used to working without a GUI. I'm trying to setup a server that will work as a shared storage device. I'm unsure how to go on with this cause there are so many different ways to go. [13:35] Depends on what system you want to reach the storage. What systems will be connecting to it? [13:37] Mac OSX Leopard. [13:39] In which case you have a choise between using Samba and NFS. I have had the most luck using NFS when it comes to speed, but it can be a bit harder to setup and get working correctly on OSX. Samba is the esiest to setup, but I have personally had some performance problems with it on OSX. They may be resolved now though. [13:40] Great stuff :) We'll be working a lot from the server. Our business is photography and the server will work as storage for our images and projects. So I believe speed is important :) [13:42] I would try out samba first, if the performance is not good enough switch over to NFS. [13:48] Thank you very much :) [13:49] And one more thing, I'm not sure if Ubuntu is detecting all my HDDs, is there a command line that gives me HD stats? [13:57] you can see some disk stats for mounted disks with "df -h" [13:57] <_ruben> sudo fdisk -l [13:57] ls /dev/{hd*,sd*} should show the avaiable disks (and optical devices) [13:58] no need for sudo on any of my systems [13:59] <_ruben> you're probably a member of the disk group then [14:01] nop [14:01] disk group? [14:02] dont worry about it Alexanderfoto, if you get "permission denied" do the sudo thing _ruben said [14:03] My kvm's are going absolutely nuts and now I can't even connect with virsh [14:04] they are all tacking out the entire server [14:19] hi, can somebody help me set up courier ? [14:19] actually it's set up [14:19] i just need some help trying to check my mail with a user i created.... can't login .... [14:19] IMAP/courier kinda stuff [14:20] I'm having trouble making the { char on Ubuntu Server.. I'm using an apple computer. [14:20] i tried to telnet to 443 and i can, but the login won't work... [14:31] okay, so when I type something in the terminal im suddenly unable to write.. sorry for the stupid questions but im new to this.. are there any keys i've accidently pressed? [14:35] Alexanderfoto, what do you mean unable to write? [14:36] hi quick question [14:36] is there a tomcat package that sets up everything? [14:36] quizme, if you are unfamiliar with the command you can install mutt [14:38] i cant write commands [14:38] only the backspace works [14:38] Alexanderfoto, are you at the physical server, or have you ssh'ed ? [14:39] Im at the physical [14:39] heath|work thanks for the suggestion, but i'm pretty committed to courier cuz of the way postfix and everything is set up. [14:40] quizme, mutt is a mail app that runs in a terminal. I use it for testing mutt user@localhost or whatever [14:41] Alexanderfoto, that sounds strange, but if you have logged in the keyboard was working [14:41] Yeah, it is working.. If I type numbers I get arg: # [14:42] but normal letters are a no go:p [14:43] ill try a reboot [14:51] same issues, its when i try to make the { the keyboard locks up [14:55] is mcrypt the standard encryption program for ubuntu ? [14:58] F3 resolved the problem :) [15:09] Hi there, I want to monitor apache2 of my lampp box (ubuntu 8.04lts) via http://localhost/server-status?auto , works fine except I'm missing CPU load value, any hints? [15:37] what the command to shut down apache [15:37] or stop it for a second [15:37] <_ruben> sudo invoke-rc.d apache stop [15:46] <\sh> oioiii: depending on what you want to monitor from apache2...Ithink snmp is what you are looking for [15:46] bah my applaince [15:46] is looping an email [15:46] I don't see documetion how to stop it [15:46] and check logs afterwards [15:48] \sh: I just want it to show overall cpu load on the status page. Although there is cpu load on server-status?all === _Grim76_ is now known as Grim76__ [16:22] mathiaz: I put out a call for clamav testing for jaunty-proposed to the ML. Would it be worth a post on the server blog? [16:26] ScottK: hi - sounds like a good plan [16:26] ScottK: I'll write something up [16:26] mathiaz: Thanks. [16:33] mathiaz: hey [16:37] I have installed Ubunto 9.04 Server and now it will not boot after initial install, no errors????? [16:38] do you see grub? [16:39] Not at all, just a blinking cursor and nothing. [16:39] did grub install ok? [16:40] As far as I know, did the full install twice and both times removed CD with same results? [16:41] did you install to any sort of raid? [16:42] The installed asked if I wanted to use RAID and I did use it both times? [16:44] what raid level? [16:44] 5 [16:44] yeah, linux wont boot off a software raid 5 [16:44] you'd need to have your boot partition on something else [16:44] Should I reinstall again and negate that option? [16:44] it will boot off a raid 1 though [16:44] yes [16:45] not sure what your disk configuration is [16:45] Cool thanks for your input and I will do just that, Have great weekend. [16:45] I just selected RAID because it has 3 HD's [16:46] ah [16:46] if it has hardware raid, that'll work [16:47] Yeah I did setup prior in BIOS befor install, will that help? [16:47] depends if its a real hardware raid or not [16:47] if so, it would appear as one disk to the system [16:47] The MD has hardware RAID available. [16:47] at least as far as the ubuntu installer is concerned, and probably wouldnt let you do raid [16:47] MB [16:47] you can try configuring that [16:47] but a lot of motherboards are 'fake' raid [16:48] That's fine I don't need RAID for this system [17:35] New bug: #407415 in openldap (main) "slapd2.4.15-1ununtu3 failed to install or upgrade" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407415 [17:35] I have a ubuntu linux router that I can sshinto, it can resolve ip addresses but cannot ping them. iptables seems to be fine [17:35] It just won't let any traffic out... [18:01] I there, anyone here hows a recent openvpn version for hardy? [18:01] probably a PPA? [18:04] I want 2.1rc19, because I need to add "redirect-private" and "auth-user-pass-optional" and thos options are only available starting from 2.1RC14 [18:05] I know it is really easy compile openvpn by hand [18:06] man, i've been kicked out of ubuntu because i said to those idiot don't ever type this: sudo rm -rf /. and yet those idiots do that! [18:06] jmedina: LP now has a search feature for ppa's. [18:06] sonism: #ubuntu-irc if you want to bitch. This isn't the place. [18:07] jmedina: I do not, however, favor installing code from somewhat random sources of indeterminate provenence. [18:08] ScottK thanks, probably I dont know how to use LP, bu the search feature only shows me the ppa repositories, and I have to searh PPA by PPA, that is not that easy [18:08] :) [18:09] jmedina: Did you try https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=openldap [18:09] ScottK: i'm not bitchin', some onje messin' with sudo command, and then i told him what he don't do right. and then i told him not to do the previous one also. and yet he do that. it definetelly not my fault.... [18:10] sonism: How does that relate to Ubuntu Server? [18:10] ScottK: ok, i know..... sorry.... [18:11] ScottK, yeap, still I have to search into each PPA [18:11] OK [18:11] well I finished with 20 results and only one old package [18:11] from LaMont Jones [18:12] Him I'd trust. [18:13] good [18:14] I think it is time to lear how to create ubuntu packages and use PPA [18:14] * jmedina comes from pacakage slackware pacakges :) [18:16] jmedina: http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ is a good starting point [18:18] ssm: thanks [18:18] well, time to create 50 openvpn client certs and packs :S [18:25] I'm trying to Install Perl 5 and Webmin 1.480 [18:27] I'm trying to Install Perl 5 and Webmin 1.480 [18:28] HELP ANYONE [18:29] Vaine-Dragon: and what is the problem? [18:29] have have you tried? [18:29] I think webmin is not supported in ubuntu [18:29] !webmin [18:29] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [18:29] Will 8.10 work [18:31] I found this info on the Official Ubuntu page for configs [18:31] Or is there another web admin package that will work with 9.04 [18:31] well I really dont know, last time I used webmin was 5 years ago [18:32] New bug: #407428 in openssh (main) "sshd zombie processes and strange behavior after karmic upgrade" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407428 [18:32] Vaine-Dragon: did you read the mmesage frfom ubottu? [18:32] Yes is there another such package for this type of admin [18:33] !ebox is that a package or another server? [18:33] is that a question? [18:34] Yes [18:34] !ebox [18:34] ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox [18:34] they are packages or full distro [18:34] Ok thats what I need, kinda new sorry for the confusion [18:35] dont worry [18:35] bu === mathiaz_ is now known as mathiaz [20:54] <_lam> hi [20:55] hi [21:26] New bug: #407310 in mysql-dfsg-5.0 (main) "Failed to check for installed and available applications" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407310 [21:43] Stupid question : where do I set the user that spamd should run as? [21:45] Oh got it, I add -u blah to /etc/default/spamassassin [21:50] anyone seen this? When under a heavy cpu load I can't SSH to the server and if I'm already on the server, I can't su -- it's like authentication is waiting on CPU to free up
