mushroomblueI don't use FTP, tho.02:19
mattgyvermushroomblue, i dont think its a connection issue, there on the same network :(  im actually using sftp02:19
mushroombluewhat's the FTP server's logs saying?02:19
mushroombluesftp != ftp02:19
mushroombluesftp is ssh02:19

mattgyvermushroomblue, do you know which log that woudl be, i normally just look at the auth.log for ssh02:20

mattgyvertwb, yes sftp02:35
mattgyverI dont know if fireftp perhaps its just creating an overflow of some kind..02:35
twbmattgyver: use sftp or putty's psftp as a client.  Since they speak only sftp, and they are command-line tools, it should be more obvious what the problem is.02:35

guest1Hello, i want to use my server as a home network router, providing DHCP, NAT, and QoS. what is a good program that can handle this.03:50
giovaniguest1: well NAT/Routing/QoS are not handled by a program, they're handled by the linux kernel03:54
giovaniDHCP can be handled by dhcpd or dnsmasq (or others, but those are the common ones)03:55
mushroomblueguest1: you seem inexperienced.03:55
mushroomblueguest1: install Ubuntu 9.0403:55
guest1I am with linux03:55
mushroomblueif you're not comfortable with command line, use a desktop distribution.03:55

guest1i also use ubuntu 9.04 on another PC as a desktop03:56
giovaniguest1: it just isn't a simple setup the way you're envisioning03:56
mushroomblueguest1: oh, dhcp3 handles dhcp03:56
giovanirouting/nat/qos are not terribly simple setups03:56

KurtKrautI'd like to make an 'traffic accounting'. Log every IP address my server stabilished a TCP or UDP connection and how much traffic were sent/received by each IP. What package should I use for this job?09:40
jmarsdenKurtKraut: argus and ra will log every connection, but not the amount of traffic they use... ntop will show you traffic statistics but is interactive (web based UI)... bandwidthd maybe?10:08
KurtKrautjmarsden, I need to save it to a log. I want to later query each IP address to know its ASN and make statics about to what ASN most of my traffic is going to.10:09
jmarsdenSounds like a very specific need... those are the tools in this general area I know of... a quick apt-cache search suggest that maybe iptotal or pmacct would be worth your while looking at too.10:12
KurtKrautjmarsden, I found the package net-acct that does exactly what I want but the man page alerts it is not maintained and no bug should be filed agains this package since there is currently no developer working on it.10:13
jmarsdenWell, if it works for you and using an unsupported package is OK with you, go for it :)10:14
KurtKrautjmarsden, I'll try that out. Until know what I want to do is an un-scientific traffic analysis. Later, I'll need something more reliable. Thanks for your attention.10:14
jmarsdenNo problem.  Lokks like bandwidthd can be configured to output logs in CDF format, so that is worth trying.10:16
qman__I use vnstat for my bandwidth logging, but I don't know if it can get that specific10:16
qman__my setup is just per interface10:17
jmarsdenI'm pretty sure that's as detailed as vnstat goes -- per interface, not per-IP or per-connection.10:18
error404notfoundi have 2 1Mbps lines at my home, both are dialup DSL's which i dial via MPD or PPP, is there a way i can combine both of those connections and present as one to the network behind server to do loadbalancing and make a cost effective my own 2Mbps package?10:46
qman__there are ways to load balance, but you can't achieve 2mbps for a single connection11:17
error404notfoundqman__, i mean somehow combine both, so that it might appear as a single line to the users behind server.11:18
qman__it would still be two 1mbps lines, with the capability to have two or more simultaneous connections divided on either line11:18
error404notfoundhmmm, so if one line is congested, rest of traffic will be moved to the other line, right?11:20
qman__yes, dynamically handled by the kernel11:22
qman__it's only really effective with medium to heavy traffic11:23
simplexioerror404notfound: im aware only iptables solution which routes data per incoming ip address or by protocol11:24
error404notfoundwell we are heavily using 1Mbps line, and most of the time people complait of slow speed.11:24
simplexioimplement Qos + port 80 to only to one link, all other to other11:25
simplexio+ fall back to handle all traffic throu just one link11:25
qman__I found a good document on it a week or so ago, can't remember it though11:25
simplexioi think those are pretty simple to configure11:25
error404notfoundhmmm, but youtube, metacafe also uses port 80 e.g. users browse to them using web browser.11:26

Davieynijaba: well i don't know if kirkland will want to do it, considering he has contributed to the project and initially uploaded it to universe for me. So, might have to grab someone else.15:28
etblwell i don't care about whether its "serious" or not, just whether it'll do _anything_ at all15:28
pmatulisetbl: just do it in a separate directory like /home/etbl/source15:28
aubreI moved http://www.auburn.edu from Solaris Sparc to jaunty. I've been quite happy with the results.15:28
Davieynijaba: I'll try and get v0.3 ready for tonight.15:28
etblthe manpage isn't quite clear on what a-g source does15:29
pmatulisetbl: it *will* do something.  it will d/l the source15:29
nijabaDaviey: kirkland is indeed a good candidate :)15:29
pmatulisetbl: but that's all15:29

etblpmatulis: its not there15:30
Davieyaubre: great!15:30
pmatulisetbl: huh?15:30
etbli just did a 'find . -name ejabberd.cfg' and it didn't return anything with etc in the path15:30
etbl$ ls ejabberd-1.1.4  ejabberd_1.1.4-4.diff.gz  ejabberd_1.1.4-4.dsc  ejabberd_1.1.4.orig.tar.gz15:30
aubrenijaba, Daviey : I also talked my director into giving me $7500 worth of hardware to setup and test UEC, and I've been working with zoopster and EtienneG to make it happen15:31
pmatulisetbl: looks good15:31

pmatulisetbl: looks like you're after ejabberd-1.1.4/debian/ejabberd.cfg15:32
etblbased on what?15:32
pmatulisetbl: common sense15:33
nijabaetbl: based on the fact that is is the one the deb will use to place it etc15:33
aubrenijaba, Daviey : and FYI if you don't find my tips appropriate or don't want to use them you won't hurt my feelings lol. I am glad to see Asterisk coming into jaunty, Mark Spencer from Digium is a friend of mine, we once started a LUG together15:33
aubreI mean in to karmic15:33

Davieyaubre: nice, would like to hear how you get on with eucalyptus15:33
pmatulisetbl: that's ok15:34
aubreDaviey: I will be letting folks know15:34
nijabaaubre: nothing personal on our side, we rae just trying to find the right balance.  quite new to us as well :)15:34
etblnijaba: how do you know that the deb is going to place that one in /etc?15:34
nijabaetbl: well, I could confirm this by looking closer at the package, but mtr and win32 do not seem like good candidates for some obvious reason, don't they?15:35
etblwhat does mtr stand for? and why is there something labeled win32 in an ubuntu package?15:36
PhotoJimmtr is "my traceroute"15:36
PhotoJimif it's the package I know15:36
nijabaetbl: remember that you just download the source.  apart from the debian directory, all the rest should be able to compile on any platform it is designed to run on.  It's therefore not surprising to see example configuration in there for other platforms.15:38
etblnijaba: ah, i see15:39
etblthank you for the very informative explanation.15:39
aubreebtl: for example in the apache2 source you will see code for Netware, among others15:39
etblso basically, i was starting with a stock ejabberd.cfg, and i had a set of instructions to modify it15:43
etblbut i lost track of what i did, and had nothing to diff it against (at one ponit i was doing it as planned, and then at another point i was unintentionally editing my backup), so my edits were spread across the original file and the backup15:44
etblbut you're saying that its safe to assume that that debian/ejabberd.cfg is exactly what my /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg file looked like before i did anything to it?15:45
etblpmatulis: nijaba:15:48
nijabaetbl: Yes, this is what we assume.  In order to keep track of your changes, have a look at how you can use etckeeper to store your changes in bazaar15:49
pmatulisnijaba: hey thanks for the tip!15:50
etblnijaba: yes, i've heard of that before, and it seems very attractive.  however, the way my machine is set up, most of my config. files end up way scattered all over the place.15:50
nijabaetbl: ooops, you said earlier you were on 8.04...  and etckeeper does not work with bazaar until 9.0415:50
