AzizLighthi everybody10:09
AzizLightI'm installing ubuntu server for the first time, I am doing a manual partitionning. What partitions do I need to create? can I just create a root partition or I have to create other partitions?10:13
ivoksyou need swap too10:15
ivoksinstaller will warn you about that10:15
domasahhhh, stupid apache. mod_rewrite log code leaked IPC semaphores, even if mod_rewrite log is disabled10:16
domasyou need global mutexes to do nothing, apparently10:16
AzizLightso root and swap is enough, or should I create other partitions seperately (ie boot, etc)?10:16
domasoh, and leaked IPC semaphores also means that server doesn't come up eventually10:16
AzizLightanybody?10:19
firecrotchAzizLight: I've never had a reason to put /boot on a separate partition. You may want to put /home on its own partition though10:19
AzizLightfirecrotch: let's say I put /home on its own partition, how big should be / and swap? (I have 985GB to spare)10:20
firecrotchAzizLight: what is the server going to be used for?10:22
_rubenfirecrotch: grub doesnt do /boot on lvm, which is why most of our servers have a seperate /boot partition10:22
AzizLightfirecrotch: it's a developement server10:23
_rubenand yes, there's no "universal partitioning scheme", it all depends on wishes/needs/et10:23
_rubenc10:23
firecrotchFor swap, the old standby of at least as much RAM, no more than 2x RAM is safe10:24
AzizLight / should be logical or primary?10:32
_rubeni dont think lilo/grub care that much about that10:34
_rubeni tend to create 2 primaries: one for /boot, one as lvm vg10:34
_rubenerr, lvm pv10:34
AzizLightI actually selected the partitionning for the free space10:39

maxagazi need to see the port XX of a remote host open when using nmap, for that can i use a ssh tunnel ?11:27
maxagazif yes, how ?11:27
maxagazI tried "ssh -L 5432:localhost:5432 my_remote_host" but still, the nmap my_remote_host -p5432 doesn't show it as open11:28
maxagazcan someone help me ?11:28
=== cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson
_ruben-L is for local portmaps11:31
maxagaz_ruben, how should i do my tunnel to get the result i'm expecting ?11:39
_rubenwell, what are you trying to accomplish exactly?11:40
maxagaz_ruben, i'm trying to tun pgsql on my machine and connect it to a remote server11:45
maxagaz_ruben, but the port used by postgresl is closed11:46
maxagaz_ruben, i'd like to open an ssh tunnel, and check using nmap that it is open11:47
atomic_1you can also check with nestat -tlnp11:58
atomic_1*netstat11:58
maxagazatomic_1, but i should open the tunnel first11:59
maxagazatomic_1, that's my problem right now11:59
atomic_1i just read what you wrote, if i understood you correctly...why would you use a ssh tunnel ? if you can login to the remote machine, you can use netstat to check if the port in question is being used by something else12:03
atomic_1also check if there is an iptables firewall in place12:03
maxagazatomic_1, tcp        0      0 127.0.1.1:5432          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      -12:07
maxagazatomic_1, i have this twice12:07
atomic_1this is on the remote machine? run it with root or sudo to see the program12:08
atomic_1executing it as a regular user does not show the program name12:08
maxagazatomic_1, tcp        0      0 127.0.1.1:5432          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      14153/postgres12:08
atomic_1there you go12:09
atomic_1there is a pg server there :)12:09
maxagazatomic_1, i want to connect to it with pgadmin12:10
maxagazatomic_1, from my machine12:10
atomic_1well, i think it needs to be listening on the external interface12:10
atomic_1the one connected to the internet12:10
atomic_1i dont have experience with pg12:10
atomic_1but i am sure you can configure which interface it runs on12:10
atomic_1what you pasted suggests that its bound on loopback (127.0.1.1)12:11
atomic_1funny, i've had the same situation with a mysql server recently, and i also tried to use ssh tunnel for this :)12:12
atomic_1and then use mysqladmin to connect to "localhost"12:12
atomic_1but it didnt work12:12
atomic_1i mean, mysql-query-browser12:13
maxagazatomic_1, i got it!!12:14
maxagazatomic_1, thanks12:14
atomic_1that'll be 4 dollars12:14
atomic_1;)12:14
atomic_1np12:14
maxagazatomic_1, ;)12:14
maxagazatomic_1, from what you told me, i checked netstat -tlnp, saw there was two lines about pgsql12:26
maxagazatomic_1, in the config of pgsql, it was set to listen on localhost and myhostname which points to 127.0.1.1 in /etc/hosts12:27
maxagazi changed this by its ip12:27
maxagazwhich was reflected by netstat -tln12:28
maxagazatomic_1, then "nmap myhost -p5432" told me it was open from my machine!12:29
atomic_1that's what i would do too12:29
atomic_1or check if i can set it on ethX, better that way12:30
atomic_1either way should work12:30
maxagazatomic_1, which way is better ?12:30
maxagazatomic_1, also, can i netstat from my current machine to my remote server  ?12:31
atomic_1you cannot use your local netstat to check a remote server12:31
atomic_1its not a port scanner :)12:32
maxagazatomic_1, ok12:33
atomic_1if your remote machine is not behind a nat12:33
atomic_1just set it to listen on the public ip address12:33
atomic_1if it is, you can still do it, but setup port forwarding on the gateway12:33

freemathiaz: I was wondering if it's possible to set up a deadline somehow, as having that update pushed is becoming very important17:51
freemathiaz: ideally we'd like to get it done before the end of this month17:52
mathiazfree: that should be doable (considering we're the 1st of the month)17:52
freemathiaz: perfect17:52
freemathiaz: I guess the sooner the better though, as I believe things will get very busy for you folks as we apprach the karmic release17:53
mathiazfree: one of the big stumbling block may be the smart update17:53
mathiazfree: IIRC landscape-client has an SRU expeption, but not smart17:53
freemathiaz: that's correct17:54
mathiazfree: IIUC smart intrepid is a new upstream release17:54
freemathiaz: also correct, jaunty is not17:54
freemathiaz: the changes between the two versions are not that many though, if needed we could help in reviewing them and explain what they do17:55

smoseri'm thinking its possibly between chair and keyboard, but dont know17:59
mathiazfree: and I'll wait on an update description of the bug17:59
mathiazfree: the goal here is to get a clear description about the SRU17:59
mathiazfree: so that the ubuntu-sru is comfortable with accepting the update17:59
freemathiaz: so once you upload them to {intrepid,jaunty}-proposed the SRU team is going to review them looking at the bug?18:00

smoseri was just about to write htat18:04
smoserso then, i wonder, why eucalyptus is running with if=scsi18:04
mathiazsmoser: it may depend on the guest OS - hardy guests don't support block virtio18:06
kirklandsmoser: please prepend 'kirkland';  i'm following too many channels :-)18:06
kirklandsmoser: i think virtio requires support in the guest18:06
kirklandsmoser: which has been available since ~hardy18:07
kirklandsmoser: but might break older guests, and per chance non-Linux guests?18:07
kirklandsmoser: scsi is more universally available than virtio, i suspect18:07
smoseryou're rpbably right18:07
kirklandsmoser: but you can get a ~10x performance improvement with virtio disks and virtio network18:07
kirklandsmoser: that's supposition on my part; don't take it as gospel yet18:08
mathiazsmoser: kirkland: to be correct: hardy supports virtio network, but not virtio disks.18:08
kirklandsmoser: might confirm that elsewhere18:08
kirklandmathiaz: ah, thanks18:08
mathiazsmoser: kirkland: TBH hardy will also work with virtio disks - but there were some bugs in virtio disks that made us switch hardy to not officially use virtio disk18:10
mathiazkirkland: smoser: that was done in virt-manager - the default template for a hardy guest will use ide as the block device18:10
mathiazsmoser: writing up the meeting notes -18:21
mathiazsmoser: <smoser> mdz had asked that vmbuilder's version be included in the manifest18:21
mathiazsmoser: <smoser> that is less straighttforward, as we're currently building with vmbuilder trunk.18:21
mathiazsmoser: couldn't the bzr revno be used for that? ^^18:21
kirklandmathiaz: cool, thanks18:22

hiffyi just noticed it's listed as vim.tiny19:05
hiffywhich uh confuses me19:05
hiffyit's been vim-full for *years*19:05
* felimwhiteley uses nan anyway19:06
hiffythe implication behind vi is that it is old school and annoying and I don't want to use it, or at least my years of doing this has trained me19:06
hiffyi.e. the default version of vi that ships with everything19:06
felimwhiteleyaye but it's vim in ubuntu all the time even when you jsut run vi afaik19:06

Hypnozmy iphone supports PPTP, L2TP, or IPSec.  Any free apps that will run one of these easily?19:49
giovanisure19:49
Hypnozany suggestions gio?19:50
giovaniopenvpn is widely used19:50
Hypnozopenvpn doesn't support any of those does it19:50
Hypnozi have openvpn running already, so if it did that would be the best19:50
Hypnozwas thinking i'd have to set up a 2nd vpn just for my iphone19:50
giovaniof course openvpn does19:51
Hypnoznot natively right19:51
Hypnozi'd need some kind of plugin?19:51
Hypnozeverything i've read says the phone doesn't support openvpn cause it can't create a tun adapter19:54
giovaniif you want to use something proprietary like pptp then I think there's a pptpd19:55
giovaniipsec is the way to go ... but, it's not as easy to set up -- openswan is the big daemon for that on linux19:56
|rt|iphone does work with poptop20:04
Hypnozpoptop = pptpd?20:04
|rt|yeah20:04
Hypnozya i was getting that feeling after some testing20:05
Hypnozrt have you ever connected iphone to a linux vpn?20:05
|rt|yeah we have a poptop, pptp vpn, here at the office20:05
Hypnozi'm looking at the openswan wiki now, might try ipsec20:05
|rt|we have some ipsec stuff too but currently only use it for the permanate tunnels20:06
Hypnozso i just need to configure my pptpd better and iphone will be able to connect...20:06
|rt|Hypnoz: in theory :)20:07
|rt|Hypnoz: i'll msg you to see if I can help with your configuration20:07
Hypnozyou know what port pptpd runs on?20:07
|rt|pptp runs on two ports 1723 and 47 for GRE20:08
|rt|i guess that's IP protocol 47 not port 47 for GRE20:10

BilgeSo I tried to mount a FAT device21:27
BilgeWasn't happening on Ubuntu server 8.04 LTS21:27
BilgeFAT: codepage cp437 not found21:27
BilgeApparently this means I need to reconfigure and recompile the kernel21:28
BilgeDoes this sound right or am I way off the track somewhere21:28
BilgeIn some ways I hope so because I really know nothing about recompiling kernels and whether it's safe/possible with only remote SSH access21:28
alex_jonisounds like you need to 'sudo modprobe nls_cp437'21:30
alex_jonimaybe that makes it work21:30
