[00:00] I've removed mention of my Karmic AMIs from http://alestic.com in the hopes that folks will just use Canonical's and give feedback to make it unbeatable. [00:01] jjohansen: I'll take info any way you want to provide it. I'm always a fan of making it public if it doesn't risk harm. [00:10] has anyone here able to ENABLE LdapAuthentication mediawiki-extension plugin ? [00:10] mediawiki-extension package looks like ubuntu specific [00:10] so, i cant find any documentation to help me =/ [00:14] erichammond: public is fine, I just figured email is a nice way to store the note [00:15] anyway, here they are aki=aki-c6896aaf, ari=ari-d8896ab1 [00:15] oops those are x86_64 [00:15] Yep emaill archives are nice reference, but I'll be copying the relevant info into my TODO list [00:15] i386: aki-e2896a8b ari-e4896a8d [00:16] there are also, almost identical kernels with Hz=250 and kexec [00:16] x86_64: aki-5e896a37 ari-50896a39 [00:17] i386: aki-00896a69 ari-02896a6b [00:17] smoser: ^ [00:17] the Hz=250 was to compare that vs. standard config for VOIP [00:18] the kexec is because smoser wanted to play with it [00:21] jjohansen: The manifest prefix names are looking good. Lots of useful information. [00:22] erichammond: all your doing [00:24] Somebody gets credit for taking my recommendations ;-) [00:24] ...and for ignoring the bad ones. I throw enough out there that a few must be good just by chance. [00:25] :) [00:28] hey guys, i connected via ftp in a temrinal how do i copy files to my pc? [00:30] Saj0577: get [00:31] cheers. and what about if i want to specify where it saves them? or is there a config file for this? [00:32] saj: do an "lcd" to the location where you want to save it [00:32] bventura: cheers you got a guide or anythin anywhere with them all in a readable format? [00:32] Saj0577: you can also do> get

[00:32] usually it starts you out in your home directory [00:33] Saj0577: you may also need to set your transfer mode [00:33] Saj0577: >binary [00:33] Saj0577: >ascii [00:34] jjohansen: okay cheers. [00:34] binary tells ftp not touch the data, ascii it does things to the data [00:34] shhesh I'm loking for one Saj but everything that comes up on google is wayyy to verbose [00:34] bventura: okay cheers [00:35] maybe, try researching the terminal commands "cd" and "pwd" and go from there it's the same thing as in FTP [00:36] oright yeah im fine with normal terminal so if its just the same role on hehe [00:36] yeah everything is the same, just prefix it with "l" to run the command on your PC's local side [00:36] mostly the same [00:37] okay thanks alot :) [00:37] np [00:41] . === erichammond1 is now known as erichammond === Guest77758 is now known as Pici [02:57] where do I post kernel net driver bugs? [03:05] how does one post a bug report at all? [03:10] tarvid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs [03:11] I've been on that page and I still cannot figure out how to file a bug [03:11] insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/kernel/drivers/net/sundance.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module [03:12] It's been broken for three years and I picked up the wrong card on the way home tonight [03:21] That's one way to reduce the number of reported bugs. [03:22] hey tarvid just read whats you been saying [03:22] I have an iptables rule set that works for me, how would I import it to ufw [03:22] dont normally hang here but im sure i can help. so you keep getting a bug and your having truble reporting it? [03:23] I should just throw that card out. It works in that other operating system and works on Fedora but is still broken in Debian/Ubuntu [03:23] I have the precise error message and the kernel module which fails [03:24] but ubuntu-bug wants to file it under yelp and include tons of irrelevant information [03:24] it will get passed upstream if handled at all [03:25] if you pastebin everything you know about the problem then that will probably be of help.and i will look into how you submit the bug report now for you [03:25] the problem is the one line above [03:26] uknown symbol in module one? [03:26] yes [03:26] syslog has a few more lines [03:27] but the error is basic - fundamental [03:27] kk [03:28] Some have recompiled the Fedora code. I'll throw the card away anyway. It is not worth the effort [03:28] hehe. is it some old card you had lieing around for yearS?lol [03:28] But I had the urge tonight to unwind ufw [03:29] I had forgotten why it was laying on the shelf but now I remember. [03:29] Now much call for nics these days. I need to sandbox ufw [03:30] which also deserves a bug report [03:30] you should be able to start with iptables-save [03:31] trying to map the existing rule set into ufw is not uncomplicated [03:32] New bug: #296159 in vm-builder "ec2exec: quotes not needed in sed command" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/296159 [03:50] tarvid: if you do not want to use ufw, simply do 'sudo ufw disable'. it unloads the firewall and won't be loaded on boot. if you want to completely flush everything, '/lib/ufw/ufw-init flush-all' === erichammond1 is now known as erichammond [04:01] I want to use ufw but I want to start with my existing firewall rules === graham is now known as monteith [04:46] wow [04:46] whoops [04:46] wrong channel :) === Debolaz is now known as Guest76738 === sync_ is now known as sync === Guest76738 is now known as Debolaz [08:43] hi, there, i wanna know - is somebody compared performance of iScsi and samba? [08:45] with samba i have performance with my home server about ~35mb/s, is there some reason to migrate to iscsi? [11:02] We're awfully quiet today... [11:05] <_ruben> its weeekend === didrocks_ is now known as didrocks [11:27] getting over the shock and awe of Beta! ;) [11:29] i shudder at life before bittorrent :) [12:14] boostar: Now, I'll happily answer it here, that other channel is awfully noisy :) [12:14] ah ok thanks [12:15] Feel free to ask the question again just so others know what we are talking about though.. [12:15] Can I assume you are able to run the server process normally? Are you familiar with how to get other various daemons running at startup? [12:16] ok, so i installed the dhcp3-server to use ist for pxeboot and it worked very good but if i restart the server the dhcp3-server wont start up [12:17] i have to run /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server start manualy [12:18] other deamons like apache2 are starting during the boot [12:18] try 'update-rc.d dhcp3-server defaults' [12:18] System startup links for /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server already exist. [12:19] then give me a 'find /etc/rc*|grep dhcp' output [12:19] /etc/rc1.d/K40dhcp3-server [12:20] i get this frome 1 to 5 [12:20] odd [12:20] rc1.d to rc5.d [12:20] odd? [12:21] the "K" on the front of the file means explicitly kill it [12:21] it should be killing in rc0.d and rc6.d, but not 1-5 [12:22] ok.. there is a file in which this was asked [12:22] i try to remember ;) [12:25] i think i need to edit this http://de.pastebin.ca/1590446 [12:25] right? [12:25] It MIGHT be worth renaming K40dhcp3-server to S40dhcp3-server within /etc/rc3.d --- I usually don't go such brute force, but its probably the easiest way to make it work. [12:25] ok i try [12:26] I looked at that pastebin, but I'm not familiar with the file itself, the start and stop numbers I agree with though [12:28] there is not k40* file in /etc/rc3.d [12:31] cd /etc/rc3.d && ln -s /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server S40dhcp3-server [12:31] brute force method :) [12:32] Then do a 'less /etc/rc3.d/S40dhcp3-server' and make sure it doesn't give you any errors opening the file [12:41] re [12:42] i tried to link the file but it already exists [12:42] ? [12:42] cd /etc/rc3.d && ln -s /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server S40dhcp3-server [12:42] ln: Erzeuge symbolische Verknüpfung „S40dhcp3-server“: File exists [12:43] can you give me a 'find /etc/rc*|grep dhcp' output again? [12:43] if the S40 exists, it should be starting up [12:43] sure [12:44] In that case, you may have startup issues, it might be worth a 'grep dhcp /var/log/syslog' [12:44] http://de.pastebin.ca/1590466 [12:45] root@andreas-server:/etc/rc3.d# /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server status [12:45] Status of DHCP server: dhcpd3 is not running. [12:45] This is the setup we were looking for earlier. I'm confused how it got fixed, but I'm ok with it. [12:45] this is strange.. i thoungth its hard to setup a pxeboot ;) [12:45] Heh, pxe drives me crazy. [12:46] hehe... its workin on my system [12:47] In theroy, this should now work correctly on reboot. If /etc/rc3.d/K40dhcp was just recently changed to /etc/rc3.d/S40dhcp, that should fix your problem [12:47] should i rename it? [12:47] If it does not, definitely check on dhcp errors in /var/log/syslog and dmesg (the command) [12:48] based on your last pastebin, you are good [12:50] is there a way to run a command on startup? mabe something linke /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart ? [12:51] Edit /etc/rc.local and add what commands you want there. You shouldn't have to do this, but it likely will work. [12:52] ok.. first i try to reboot again ... [13:03] re [13:03] any luck? [13:04] it works after i added the /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server comand to the rcc.conf [13:04] i think its not the best way but it works [13:04] rc.local you mean? [13:04] maybe ; [13:05] yea, not the best way. The biggest challenge now is remembering its there in 2 years when you have to troubleshoot it next time. :) [13:05] yeah.. rc.local [13:06] hm i write any changes to a wiki [13:06] good idea [13:06] thx [13:06] but its a lot of work [13:07] but its nice to have this [13:08] anyway... maybe i can help you with your pxeboot... [13:08] or does it work already ? [13:08] eh, not currently a priority. I got out of IT a year ago. Thanks for the offer though.

[16:03] I suspect if you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix#Authentication carefully, I suspect you'll find you missed a step. [16:03] ScottK: Karmic [16:03] no, hardy sorry [16:05] dutchie: My recommendation though is to go and use the official docs for this: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/email-services.html [16:05] You'll be better off in the long run to do it that way since people will better be able to help you here. [16:45] right, screw authentication, I'll just use the dyndns thing to identify [16:45] which config option should I set in /etc/postfix/main.cf? [16:46] dutchie: Probably all you need to do get authentication working is unchroot postfix [16:46] If you want the quick and easy way [16:46] is that bad in any way? [16:47] It's in theory slighlty less secure. [16:48] In the scheme of things it's way better than 'screw authentication' [16:48] it will probably not be the most insecure thing on that server [16:48] ;-) [16:49] You have to work at making postfix insecure. Some people manage, but I have no idea how. [16:49] do I have to change anything apart from the one line in master.cf? [16:50] IIRC it's more than one, but I don't have time to look it up right now.

[18:53] Hi, as an Ubuntu translator, I noticed the presence of the Ubuntu Server Guide as a translatable package [18:53] I have a question regarding this: where are translated versions of this guide to be found? [19:03] sommer: ^^ [19:05] I'm interested in translation the guide only if the translations will be used somewhere [19:06] Understandably. [19:06] That's why I pinged sommer. He's the one that mostly takes care of it. [19:06] *translating. Okay :) [19:07] IIRC it's available as an installed package on Ubuntu Server and I'd guess that's where the localized form of it exists. [19:10] yes I noticed that, but I think more users would be satisfied with an online PDF version of the document rather than that package, since reading documents on the console isn't very pleasant to do [19:12] I don't know how hard that would be to do. [19:12] * ScottK doesn't know a huge amount about translations. [19:13] ScottK, there is already a PDF version available, though not translated [19:13] I don't know how that one gets built. === dendro-a` is now known as dendrobates === EarlJr_ is now known as EarlJr [20:06] New bug: #441621 in samba (main) "samba crashed" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/441621 === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [20:58] cumulus007: the documentation team handles translations of the official docs [20:59] pmatulis, come to #ubuntu-qc [21:00] pmatulis, I asked it them in their IRC channel but I had no luck with feedback [21:01] Could somebody walk me through deciding how to implement LDAP/Kerberos on a school lab that I administer. [21:01] ? [21:01] cumulus007: the official docs are hosted on launchpad [21:02] they are? Are they accessible in Wiki-style or something? [21:02] you can read them on help.ubuntu.com, but only in English [21:02] It's a thin client lab, with three servers, so I really need centralized login/user info, but I've hit brick walls several times trying to go through HowTos. [21:03] cumulus007: bzr repo [21:03] But that's not really user-friendly, is it [21:05] Translated versions of the server guide should be available for consulting online in either PDF format or in a way like the current English documentation is built [21:05] It may be a good idea to file a bug about this issue [21:05] cumulus007: 'bzr branch lp:ubuntu-docs' [21:06] cumulus007: the official docs are what make up help.ubuntu.com [21:06] cumulus007: they are also on your desktop system [21:07] cumulus007: see 'System > Help and Support' and search for 'server guide' [21:09] I can't find them there === erichammond1 is now known as erichammond [21:11] never mind, got it [21:12] Don't forget that a server doesn't have a nice GUI to consult the server guide ;) [21:12] I really think it should be a great idea to make the translated versions of Ubuntu documentation available online, along with the English version [21:14] cumulus007: join the documentation team and/or send a suggestion to their mailing list [21:14] That's a good idea and I think I'm going to do that, or at least file a bug report [21:17] cumulus007: what i find weird is that they impose a "string freeze" after which the docs cannot be changed. for example that freeze is presently in effect for karmic. no more changes to the karmic docs :( [21:17] usually these things have exceptions [21:18] meaning you have a formal review process for change instead of whatever goes [21:18] sure, sure [21:18] thing is, people need to use a release and then document [21:18] right now they have about a month after feature freeze [21:18] the other thing is, i believe you're mistaking string freeze for translations freeze [21:19] ah perhaps [21:19] but maybe not [21:19] but i was told something pretty clear a couple of weeks ago [21:20] there is no good reason to impose a documentation freeze at all [21:22] the idea is [21:22] translators shouldn't have to translate every version of a string [21:23] pmatulis, a freeze is important for translators so they can translate without having the risk that their translation is lost the next day because the string changed [21:23] anyway, thanks for your information about the server docs [21:23] good night :) === dantaliz1ng is now known as dantalizing === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [22:30] is dcc-client not available for Hardy any more ?
