[01:38] <quizme> when i type in gem1.9.1 it's there, but when i type in sudo gem 1.9.1 it's not found.
[01:39] <ScottK> There's a sudo option to preserver your environment.  Look at man sudo and try that.
[01:40] <quizme> i tried the -E option but it still says not found
[01:42] <quizme> /opt/ruby/bin is in the sudo PATH too....
[01:42] <quizme> and if i type sudo /opt/ruby/bin/gem1.9.1 it works too...
[01:42] <ScottK> Not sure what to tell you ten.
[01:42] <ScottK> What if you sudo -i and then try gem1.9.1?
[01:43] <quizme> scottk that worked
[01:43] <quizme> is sudo broken ?
[01:43] <quizme> how do i reinstall it ?
[01:43] <ScottK> That indicates a path/environment issue to me.
[01:44] <ScottK> Not sure of the details though.
[01:44] <ScottK> I doubt sudo is broken.
[01:44] <quizme> /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin/ec2-api-tools/bin:.:/opt/ruby/bin:/home/david/bin
[01:44] <quizme> it's in the PATH
[01:44] <quizme> /opt/ruby/bin
[01:44] <quizme> that was from sudo echo $PATH
[01:51] <ScottK> Not sure then.
[02:50] <qman__> my tty2 is locked up on one of my machines
[02:51] <qman__> I killed the bash process running on it, and tried killing getty, but it's not coming back
[02:51] <qman__> any suggestions?
[02:53] <andresmujica> init q
[02:55] <qman__> nothing
[02:55] <andresmujica> disable the tty2 in inittab , then init q, enable again init q again...
[02:55] <qman__> oh, ok
[02:56] <qman__> um, where is the inittab on ubuntu?
[02:56] <qman__> locate was no help
[02:57] <andresmujica> ughh forget what i've said
[02:57] <andresmujica> sorry
[02:57] <andresmujica> different distro :(
[02:57] <qman__> ah
[02:58] <andresmujica> that's in redhat...
[02:58] <qman__> I'm guessing it must be getty config then
[02:58] <qman__> somewhere
[02:58] <andresmujica> yeap..
[02:59] <andresmujica> there's something within event.d
[02:59] <qman__> there's a tty2 entry there
[03:01] <andresmujica> zcat /usr/share/doc/system-services/README.Debian.gz
[03:01] <qman__> thanks
[03:03] <andresmujica> sudo stop tty2
[03:03] <andresmujica> seems to be the one
[03:03] <andresmujica> then start
[03:04] <qman__> yeah, that's it, but it's still locked up
[03:04] <qman__> hmm
[03:06] <andresmujica> ohh :(
[03:10] <qman__> I was able to spawn a tty7 and 8
[03:10] <qman__> so I guess that'll do for now
[06:54] <SuperRoach> I'm using webmin with my ubuntu server (8.04) install and noticed  that I can't do bandwidth monitoring due to iptables not functioning (it did work previously). Is there a way to re-enable iptables?
[10:16] <holyhandgrenade> anyone here have any experiance setting up nagios/centreon on ubuntu server?
[10:18] <holyhandgrenade> or more specificly.. Im trying to remmove centreon and nagios mysql DBs. Since i grated them certain permissions ..the drop command returns with ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user....
[10:19] <holyhandgrenade> i could purge the mysql package...but i dont really want to be that drastic
[10:19] <holyhandgrenade> :]
[10:20] <holyhandgrenade> !mysql#
[10:21] <holyhandgrenade> !mysql
[10:34] <holyhandgrenade> my mysql root dosnt seem to want to allow the root user to create databases
[11:01] <ihtarlik> Why is samba-daemon listening on port 7?
[11:08] <ihtarlik> I've looked all over, and I can find absolutely no documentation on why Samba has tcp port 7 open.  I know it's Samba because port 7 closes when I stop Samba.  I'm using Jaunty and Samba 3.3.2.
[12:07] <SockPants> problem: for a virtual machine, i need virtualbox to be able to read and write to /dev/sda2. however, when i chmod it to 666 it just changes back again randomly... how can i make it permanent?
[17:44] <macstar> i have an issue with ssh keys, i have copied my .pub key to authorized_keys on my root login, can now log in fine. I then created a new user copied the same authorized_keys file from the /root/.ssh folder but cannot login to the new user, any pointers ?
[17:47] <holyhandgrenade> man ssh
[17:48] <macstar> dont need to read the manual
[18:27] <Sp0tter> I'm running xdm trying to connect via xming xdmcp.  I can connect and it shows the xdm login screen, but as soon as i put in my pw it just resets and shwos the login screen again.  I don't see any errorsin my xorg log or on my debug output from xdm.  Where should I look to find whats wrong?
[18:53] <mattgyver> im running a website on my 9.04 server.  When im viewing my site within my LAN, certain links force the server computer to restart like you hit reset, any ideas?
[19:06] <simplexio> mattgyver: hw problem, assuming that you dont run code which has shutdown/reboot commands
[19:07] <simplexio> mattgyver: hw as broken hardware or netcard driver.. there is no other way explain that.
[19:08] <mattgyver> simplexio, its not quite random so i dont think its hw related, i wouldnt be suprised if the code does not have shutdown and reboot commands within though
[19:08] <mattgyver> simplexio, Im running Jinzora, not sure if your familiar with that its a music content manager and sharing utility
[19:08] <simplexio> mattgyver: ssh server and tail -f /var/log/kern.log etc.. log files to see latest error
[19:09] <mattgyver> okay, i will include that with my next test that I am about to do
[19:09] <mattgyver> simplexio, if i recall tail must be run before hand as it will output live data to the terminal correct?
[19:09] <simplexio> mattgyver: just open several conenction and 'tail -f' for kern.loh, syslog etc etc-.. log in /var/log/
[19:10] <mattgyver> ok
[19:10] <simplexio> mattgyver: tail -f outputs if there is some new line in file, thats why you need few windows
[19:11] <mattgyver> ok
[19:11] <mattgyver> I will make that its own test then
[19:11] <simplexio> mattgyver: or conenction to keep on eye for several logs
