[00:06] <ezhangin> well got my raid array to start from the live cd
[00:06] <ezhangin> interesting
[00:07] <ezhangin> let's see if it starts from the OS
[00:07] <ezhangin> i think grub was looking at it earlier
[00:09] <ezhangin> is it ok if the first thing the boot sequence says booting from (hd0,0) even though the boot drive is (hd4,0) i think
[00:10] <ezhangin> yeah
[00:10] <ezhangin> why is it doing that
[00:10] <ezhangin> hmm
[00:14] <ezhangin> anyone have an idea or should i just reinstall?
[00:14] <ezhangin> with the raid drives unplugged for the time being
[00:39] <ezhangin> wtf
[00:57] <ezhangin> different frustrations
[00:57] <ezhangin> now when i start one of my drives (at random) is in md_d0
[00:57] <ezhangin> i have no idea what that is and i didn't set it up
[00:58] <ezhangin> i guess i'll try formatting this thing again

[03:11] <qman__> Orfeous, the answer is actually both
[03:12] <qman__> Orfeous, you could upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, or install fresh with the new discs
[03:30] <Orfeous> qman__, thanks for the confirm!
[03:32] <Orfeous> ok, what is recommended install via 9.10 cd and update packages from internet or install via 9.10 dvd?

[10:09] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[10:13] <AzizLight> I'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?
[10:15] <ivoks> you need swap too
[10:15] <ivoks> installer will warn you about that
[10:16] <domas> ahhhh, stupid apache. mod_rewrite log code leaked IPC semaphores, even if mod_rewrite log is disabled
[10:16] <domas> you need global mutexes to do nothing, apparently
[10:16] <AzizLight> so root and swap is enough, or should I create other partitions seperately (ie boot, etc)?
[10:16] <domas> oh, and leaked IPC semaphores also means that server doesn't come up eventually
[10:19] <AzizLight> anybody?
[10:19] <firecrotch> AzizLight: I've never had a reason to put /boot on a separate partition. You may want to put /home on its own partition though
[10:20] <AzizLight> firecrotch: let's say I put /home on its own partition, how big should be / and swap? (I have 985GB to spare)
[10:22] <firecrotch> AzizLight: what is the server going to be used for?
[10:22] <_ruben> firecrotch: grub doesnt do /boot on lvm, which is why most of our servers have a seperate /boot partition
[10:23] <AzizLight> firecrotch: it's a developement server
[10:23] <_ruben> and yes, there's no "universal partitioning scheme", it all depends on wishes/needs/et
[10:23] <_ruben> c
[10:24] <firecrotch> For swap, the old standby of at least as much RAM, no more than 2x RAM is safe
[10:32] <AzizLight>  / should be logical or primary?
[10:34] <_ruben> i dont think lilo/grub care that much about that
[10:34] <_ruben> i tend to create 2 primaries: one for /boot, one as lvm vg
[10:34] <_ruben> err, lvm pv
[10:39] <AzizLight> I actually selected the partitionning for the free space
[10:39] <AzizLight> I think that's the best option for a first time

[11:27] <maxagaz> i need to see the port XX of a remote host open when using nmap, for that can i use a ssh tunnel ?
[11:27] <maxagaz> if yes, how ?
[11:28] <maxagaz> I tried "ssh -L 5432:localhost:5432 my_remote_host" but still, the nmap my_remote_host -p5432 doesn't show it as open
[11:28] <maxagaz> can someone help me ?
=== cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson
[11:31] <_ruben> -L is for local portmaps
[11:39] <maxagaz> _ruben, how should i do my tunnel to get the result i'm expecting ?
[11:40] <_ruben> well, what are you trying to accomplish exactly?
[11:45] <maxagaz> _ruben, i'm trying to tun pgsql on my machine and connect it to a remote server
[11:46] <maxagaz> _ruben, but the port used by postgresl is closed
[11:47] <maxagaz> _ruben, i'd like to open an ssh tunnel, and check using nmap that it is open
[11:58] <atomic_1> you can also check with nestat -tlnp
[11:58] <atomic_1> *netstat
[11:59] <maxagaz> atomic_1, but i should open the tunnel first
[11:59] <maxagaz> atomic_1, that's my problem right now
[12:03] <atomic_1> i 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 else
[12:03] <atomic_1> also check if there is an iptables firewall in place
[12:07] <maxagaz> atomic_1, tcp        0      0 127.0.1.1:5432          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      -
[12:07] <maxagaz> atomic_1, i have this twice
[12:08] <atomic_1> this is on the remote machine? run it with root or sudo to see the program
[12:08] <atomic_1> executing it as a regular user does not show the program name
[12:08] <maxagaz> atomic_1, tcp        0      0 127.0.1.1:5432          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      14153/postgres
[12:09] <atomic_1> there you go
[12:09] <atomic_1> there is a pg server there :)
[12:10] <maxagaz> atomic_1, i want to connect to it with pgadmin
[12:10] <maxagaz> atomic_1, from my machine
[12:10] <atomic_1> well, i think it needs to be listening on the external interface
[12:10] <atomic_1> the one connected to the internet
[12:10] <atomic_1> i dont have experience with pg
[12:10] <atomic_1> but i am sure you can configure which interface it runs on
[12:11] <atomic_1> what you pasted suggests that its bound on loopback (127.0.1.1)
[12:12] <atomic_1> funny, i've had the same situation with a mysql server recently, and i also tried to use ssh tunnel for this :)
[12:12] <atomic_1> and then use mysqladmin to connect to "localhost"
[12:12] <atomic_1> but it didnt work
[12:13] <atomic_1> i mean, mysql-query-browser
[12:14] <maxagaz> atomic_1, i got it!!
[12:14] <maxagaz> atomic_1, thanks
[12:14] <atomic_1> that'll be 4 dollars
[12:14] <atomic_1> ;)
[12:14] <atomic_1> np
[12:14] <maxagaz> atomic_1, ;)
[12:26] <maxagaz> atomic_1, from what you told me, i checked netstat -tlnp, saw there was two lines about pgsql
[12:27] <maxagaz> atomic_1, in the config of pgsql, it was set to listen on localhost and myhostname which points to 127.0.1.1 in /etc/hosts
[12:27] <maxagaz> i changed this by its ip
[12:28] <maxagaz> which was reflected by netstat -tln
[12:29] <maxagaz> atomic_1, then "nmap myhost -p5432" told me it was open from my machine!
[12:29] <atomic_1> that's what i would do too
[12:30] <atomic_1> or check if i can set it on ethX, better that way
[12:30] <atomic_1> either way should work
[12:30] <maxagaz> atomic_1, which way is better ?
[12:31] <maxagaz> atomic_1, also, can i netstat from my current machine to my remote server  ?
[12:31] <atomic_1> you cannot use your local netstat to check a remote server
[12:32] <atomic_1> its not a port scanner :)
[12:33] <maxagaz> atomic_1, ok
[12:33] <atomic_1> if your remote machine is not behind a nat
[12:33] <atomic_1> just set it to listen on the public ip address
[12:33] <atomic_1> if it is, you can still do it, but setup port forwarding on the gateway

[18:01] <smoser> b. how does a guest become aware virtio ? .. mainly, you mentioned unaccelarated-ness of sym53c8xx . what faster path is there, and how should we change our images such that they take it.
[18:02] <kirkland> smoser: it's not the guest that decides to use virtio
[18:02] <kirkland> smoser: its the hypervisor
[18:02] <kirkland> smoser: or libvirt
[18:02] <kirkland> smoser: specifically, the kvm command line
[18:02] <kirkland> smoser: i have a kvm wrapper in $HOME/bin/kvm that does it for me
[18:03] <kirkland> smoser: let me paste you a line:
[18:03] <kirkland> smoser: sudo /usr/bin/kvm -m 512 -smp 2 -usb -usbdevice tablet -net nic,model=virtio -net tap,script=/home/kirkland/bin/bridge.sh -drive file=karmic-server.img,if=virtio,index=0,boot=on
[18:04] <smoser> if=virtio
[18:04] <smoser> i was just about to write htat
[18:04] <smoser> so then, i wonder, why eucalyptus is running with if=scsi
[18:06] <mathiaz> smoser: it may depend on the guest OS - hardy guests don't support block virtio
[18:06] <kirkland> smoser: please prepend 'kirkland';  i'm following too many channels :-)
[18:06] <kirkland> smoser: i think virtio requires support in the guest
[18:07] <kirkland> smoser: which has been available since ~hardy
[18:07] <kirkland> smoser: but might break older guests, and per chance non-Linux guests?
[18:07] <kirkland> smoser: scsi is more universally available than virtio, i suspect
[18:07] <smoser> you're rpbably right
[18:07] <kirkland> smoser: but you can get a ~10x performance improvement with virtio disks and virtio network
[18:08] <kirkland> smoser: that's supposition on my part; don't take it as gospel yet
[18:08] <mathiaz> smoser: kirkland: to be correct: hardy supports virtio network, but not virtio disks.
[18:08] <kirkland> smoser: might confirm that elsewhere
[18:08] <kirkland> mathiaz: ah, thanks
[18:10] <mathiaz> smoser: 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 disk
[18:10] <mathiaz> kirkland: smoser: that was done in virt-manager - the default template for a hardy guest will use ide as the block device
[18:21] <mathiaz> smoser: writing up the meeting notes -
[18:21] <mathiaz> smoser: <smoser> mdz had asked that vmbuilder's version be included in the manifest
[18:21] <mathiaz> smoser: <smoser> that is less straighttforward, as we're currently building with vmbuilder trunk.
[18:21] <mathiaz> smoser: couldn't the bzr revno be used for that? ^^
[18:22] <kirkland> mathiaz: cool, thanks
[18:22] <smoser> yeah. it just doesn't match with the rest of manifest data
[18:22] <smoser> i would suggest even branch-id:revno
[18:22] <mathiaz> smoser: right - better than nothing though
[18:23] <uvirtbot> New bug: #409768 in php5 (main) "php5 crashed with SIGSEGV in timelib_timezone_id_is_valid()" [Medium,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/409768
[18:32] <kirkland> ttx: smoser: mathiaz: i gotta drop for a few minutes while I replace my 100mbps switch with a 1000mbps switch, and move some hard drives around
[18:32] <kirkland> UEC testing takes fast network, faster disks
[18:32] <kirkland> my 100mbps + usb disks in my DMZ cloud aren't cutting it
[18:33] <mdz> smoser,mathiaz: I am not concerned about where it gets stashed; if you want to keep the manifest format the same (which I agree is useful), you could stash it somewhere else
[18:34] <smoser> i absolutely agree that we should record it.
[18:34] <smoser> would just writing to 'vmbuilder-version.txt' be sufficient ? or something like that ?
[18:41] <jcastro> smoser: kirkland: the eucalyptus test page says: # The most recent Ubuntu Server ISO which can be found at: TBC.
[18:41] <jcastro> what shall I put there?
[18:41] <jcastro> is that just a pointer to the normal ISOs?
[18:42] <mathiaz> jcastro: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/
[18:42] <mathiaz> jcastro: ^^ this will always point to the latest daily -server iso
[18:42] <smoser> well, in a couple hours beta link. but there are nightlies at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/
[18:42] <jcastro> ok
[18:42] <smoser> yeah
[18:42] <mathiaz> jcastro: however it may be broken
[18:43] <smoser> what mathiaz said
[18:43] <jcastro> I know where those are, I'm just making sure that that's what the eucalyptus page should point to right?
[18:43] <jcastro> ok
[18:44] <jcastro> ok nm, reading the testcases makes it obvious that it's the normal server iso.
[18:44] <smoser> the -server isos are what we use for eucalyptus installtion
[18:44] <smoser> yeah
[18:55] <free> mathiaz: hey I've updated the bug description of #347983, does it feel better?
[18:57] <ball> Anyone here using entry-level tower servers (e.g. HP ML110, Dell T100 ?)
[18:59] <mathiaz> free: great! much better. Thanks for updating this
[18:59] <free> mathiaz: np!
[19:02] <hiffy> hey peeps
[19:03] <hiffy> ubuntu server 9.04 - vim isn't in the path, there is no vim-common in the repo and it says vim-tiny is already installed. What gives?
[19:05] <felimwhiteley> hiffy: just a thought, I *think* vim-tiny actually runs as vi, certainly when I run it I get colour etc. when I enable it in the config file
[19:05] <hiffy> i just noticed it's listed as vim.tiny
[19:05] <hiffy> which uh confuses me
[19:05] <hiffy> it's been vim-full for *years*
[19:06]  * felimwhiteley uses nan anyway
[19:06] <hiffy> the 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 me
[19:06] <hiffy> i.e. the default version of vi that ships with everything
[19:06] <felimwhiteley> aye but it's vim in ubuntu all the time even when you jsut run vi afaik
[19:07] <hiffy> this is a freshly rolled install and it's not :(
[19:07] <hiffy> ah well, if i can't get syntax highlighting working i'll be annoyed
[19:14] <jtimberman> on karmic, why does couchdb require xulrunner??!

[19:32] <jjohansen> smoser: do you want to give i386: aki-c28063ab, ari-c48063ad  x86_64: aki-a68063cf, ari-ba8063d3
[19:32] <jjohansen> smoser: they are built with the more virtualized configs
[19:33] <smoser> give what ?
[19:33] <smoser> give them a test ?
[19:36] <jjohansen> smoser: yeah
[19:49] <Hypnoz> my iphone supports PPTP, L2TP, or IPSec.  Any free apps that will run one of these easily?
[19:49] <giovani> sure
[19:50] <Hypnoz> any suggestions gio?
[19:50] <giovani> openvpn is widely used
[19:50] <Hypnoz> openvpn doesn't support any of those does it
[19:50] <Hypnoz> i have openvpn running already, so if it did that would be the best
[19:50] <Hypnoz> was thinking i'd have to set up a 2nd vpn just for my iphone
[19:51] <giovani> of course openvpn does
[19:51] <Hypnoz> not natively right
[19:51] <Hypnoz> i'd need some kind of plugin?
[19:54] <Hypnoz> everything i've read says the phone doesn't support openvpn cause it can't create a tun adapter
[19:55] <giovani> if you want to use something proprietary like pptp then I think there's a pptpd
[19:56] <giovani> ipsec is the way to go ... but, it's not as easy to set up -- openswan is the big daemon for that on linux
[20:04] <|rt|> iphone does work with poptop
[20:04] <Hypnoz> poptop = pptpd?
[20:04] <|rt|> yeah
[20:05] <Hypnoz> ya i was getting that feeling after some testing
[20:05] <Hypnoz> rt have you ever connected iphone to a linux vpn?
[20:05] <|rt|> yeah we have a poptop, pptp vpn, here at the office
[20:05] <Hypnoz> i'm looking at the openswan wiki now, might try ipsec
[20:06] <|rt|> we have some ipsec stuff too but currently only use it for the permanate tunnels
[20:06] <Hypnoz> so i just need to configure my pptpd better and iphone will be able to connect...
[20:07] <|rt|> Hypnoz: in theory :)
[20:07] <|rt|> Hypnoz: i'll msg you to see if I can help with your configuration
[20:07] <Hypnoz> you know what port pptpd runs on?
[20:08] <|rt|> pptp runs on two ports 1723 and 47 for GRE
[20:10] <|rt|> i guess that's IP protocol 47 not port 47 for GRE

[21:18] <gre0> Q: on a ubuntu box running as a NIS server, when changing a NIS user's password as root, does root have to specify the user's old password before entering the new?

[21:27] <Bilge> So I tried to mount a FAT device
[21:27] <Bilge> Wasn't happening on Ubuntu server 8.04 LTS
[21:27] <Bilge> FAT: codepage cp437 not found
[21:28] <Bilge> Apparently this means I need to reconfigure and recompile the kernel
[21:28] <Bilge> Does this sound right or am I way off the track somewhere
[21:28] <Bilge> In some ways I hope so because I really know nothing about recompiling kernels and whether it's safe/possible with only remote SSH access
[21:30] <alex_joni> sounds like you need to 'sudo modprobe nls_cp437'
[21:30] <alex_joni> maybe that makes it work
