| JanC | Crypia: what has gdm to do with Ubuntu Server? ;) | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| Crypia | JanC: oh, nothing I guess, other than I'm running it on Ubuntu server | 00:35 |
| JanC | do you use karmic? | 00:37 |
| Crypia | Yes | 00:37 |
| JanC | right, already thought so | 00:38 |
| JanC | read the release notes, have a look inside /etc/init/ and read the 'upstart' documentation :-) | 00:38 |
| Crypia | OK, I did glance at that stuff and thought the answer might be there, I'll dig a little further though, thanks | 00:39 |
| JanC | /etc/rcX.d is only used for applications that haven't been converted to upstart yet | 00:40 |
| JanC | where the init scripts haven't been converted to upstart yet, to be more precise | 00:40 |

| * erichammond was just getting used to this new-fangled /etc/rcX.d way of starting a system. | 02:59 | |
| JanC | erichammond: you come from a BSD-init background or something even more exotic? ;) | 03:00 |
| erichammond | JanC: I started with Unix 7 on this thing: http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=767&st=1 | 03:02 |
| erichammond | er, Unix version 7 | 03:03 |
| erichammond | I don't even remember what I was familiar with before what we have now; it just feels like I have to keep learning new ones and I never figure out why the old one was bad. | 03:04 |
| ScottK | Sounds like my and my feelings about Launchpad user interfaces. | 03:06 |
| JanC | erichammond: nice, my first unix experience was a bit later, as a user on an HP mini around 1991 ツ | 03:07 |
| JanC | ScottK: well, the "you must use ubuntu-bugs" bug-reporting interface is a bit annoying sometimes :P | 03:09 |
| ScottK | JanC: Fortunately there's a "unless you an Ubuntu developer" exception, so that one doesn't bother me. | 03:09 |
| ScottK | It's more every release they move stuff around and change it almost like they are trying to make it harder to use. | 03:10 |
| JanC | ScottK: but it's very annoying to beta-testers who get stuck in busybox ;) | 03:10 |
| JanC | (not me, but someone else I had to provide the noredirect link) | 03:11 |
| ScottK | JanC: Right. I didn't say I thought it was a good idea. | 03:11 |
| JanC | and, I think there are some improvements on the new LP interface too, as long as you allow JS | 03:14 |
| JanC | has been some time since I tried without JS | 03:14 |
| JanC | of course the constant changing can be annoying in itself | 03:15 |
| AnirbanHazra | I have started my DNS server almost 12 hrs ago. But still its not reflecting the new ip of my domain and showing the old ip. How to check that bind is working properly ? | 03:15 |

| smoser | yeah. its enough at the moment for me to think we should just be putting the 2G image out for download with instructions on how to expand it | 03:22 |
| kirkland | smoser: how long until you get a 2G image up at http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/beta/ ? | 03:22 |
| smoser | rather than the other way around. | 03:22 |
| kirkland | smoser: absolutely | 03:22 |
| kirkland | smoser: that's my suggestion | 03:22 |
| kirkland | smoser: save the internets! | 03:22 |
| smoser | i dont plan on putting them in beta, but i can make them manually and put them elsewhere if you'd like | 03:22 |
| smoser | transferred zeros make al gore cry | 03:22 |
| AnirbanHazra | JanC: They are the old DNS. NOw they are 216.245.204.244 and 69.162.114.78 respectively | 03:22 |
| kirkland | smoser: is there a daily karmic dir? | 03:23 |
| smoser | yeah. | 03:23 |
| kirkland | smoser: where? | 03:23 |
| smoser | http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic | 03:23 |
| smoser | and i'll have a build with these changes in it inside the hour | 03:23 |
| smoser | and will send a mail suggesting making 2G available for download with instructions on how to resize up. | 03:24 |
| smoser | theonly issue with the smaller initiial filesize that i can think of is that it will include less inodes | 03:24 |
| kirkland | smoser: cool | 03:24 |
| smoser | which could possibly be short for 10G of acutal user data | 03:24 |
| kirkland | smoser: thanks | 03:24 |
| kirkland | smoser: drop a note here when that daily 2G image is available | 03:25 |
| kirkland | smoser: we're breaking for dinner now-ish | 03:25 |
| smoser | but in all likelyhood, you're not doing much on '/', when you've got a terrabyte in /mnt | 03:25 |
| smoser | alright. will do. | 03:25 |
| kirkland | smoser: thanks so much, dude | 03:25 |
| JanC | AnirbanHazra: I'm not a DNS guru, but I suspect the new DNS servers aren't known to the .com DNS servers yet, so you'll have to wait for that ;) | 03:27 |
| AnirbanHazra | hmmm | 03:28 |
| JanC | AnirbanHazra: never a good idea to change hosting & DNS at the same time IMO | 03:28 |
| erichammond | smoser: Something you said reminded me of something in I was wondering about based on a ##aws user's response to this article: http://alestic.com/2009/09/ec2-public-ebs-danger | 03:30 |
| erichammond | Let's see if I can express it clearly. | 03:31 |
| erichammond | When you build an EC2/UEC image with vmbuilder it is done on a loopback file system, right? | 03:31 |
| smoser | i'd read your article, but missed my chance at $100 | 03:31 |
| JanC | oh, and make sure your registrar knows about the new DNS servers too! | 03:31 |
| smoser | vmbuilder builds into a direcory, and then copies the data from the directory into a loopback image (at least for ec2) | 03:32 |
| erichammond | This means that any files you create and then delete on that file system are still going to exist in the blocks on the image. | 03:32 |
| smoser | or, for xen, in general | 03:32 |
| smoser | actually, no. | 03:32 |
| erichammond | ok. That's the preferred method I was going to recommend. | 03:32 |
| smoser | in other cases (non-xen) yes. | 03:32 |
| erichammond | Not only would it be a potential security risk to have deleted files in the image, but it might also affect the compressed size. | 03:33 |
| smoser | i'm not sure if soren did it this way to avoid data leakage, or if only for space | 03:33 |
| smoser | because all those temporary files aren't zeros | 03:33 |
| smoser | they take up un-needed space | 03:33 |
| erichammond | anyway, it sounds like it's done the good way. | 03:33 |
| smoser | right. as you said. | 03:33 |
| erichammond | computers are haard. | 03:34 |
| erichammond | :) | 03:34 |
| erichammond | I'm constantly having to make tweaks to my mental model of what is going on. | 03:35 |

| artillerytx | how can i back up the drive to another drive? | 06:59 |
| twb | artillerytx: dd? | 07:04 |
| artillerytx | dd? | 07:04 |
| PhotoJim | dd if=/dev/olddrive of=/dev/newdrive | 07:04 |
| artillerytx | serisouly | 07:05 |
| PhotoJim | if the new drive is the same size or larger... yes | 07:05 |
| artillerytx | would i have to moun the other drive? | 07:05 |
| PhotoJim | not until you've copied the data over | 07:05 |
| artillerytx | its not the same size | 07:05 |
| PhotoJim | not ever, technically | 07:05 |
| PhotoJim | the new drive needs to be the same or larger for that to work properly... (slightly oversimple) | 07:05 |
| artillerytx | well crap | 07:05 |
| artillerytx | could i use a usb external ? | 07:06 |
| PhotoJim | sure | 07:06 |
| artillerytx | damn i wish i would of known that before i just restarted the machine | 07:06 |
| artillerytx | i hope it shows up again | 07:06 |
| PhotoJim | the other option is to boot off a live CD and do an fsck on your drive to fix it... that has risk of course. | 07:06 |
| artillerytx | yeah | 07:06 |
| artillerytx | i don't want to fix the drive i just want the files | 07:06 |
| PhotoJim | well, chances are if the files are corrupted, fsck won't work on them, and copying the drive won't help either. | 07:07 |
| PhotoJim | but you might as well try | 07:07 |
| PhotoJim | if you want to copy at a filesystem level, you would have to mount your external drive | 07:07 |
| PhotoJim | and then just copy files to it | 07:07 |
| artillerytx | yeah well im pretty sure the drive is bad | 07:08 |
| artillerytx | cause its only randomly showing up in the BIOS | 07:08 |
| artillerytx | great didn't show up | 07:09 |
| PhotoJim | another option, replace the drive, reinstall... and put the old drive in an external case for rescue | 07:09 |
| artillerytx | yeah but im having a hard time finding SCSI enclosures | 07:09 |
| PhotoJim | ahh, SCSI | 07:09 |
| artillerytx | god i can't believe i had the files right there and couldn't get them off | 07:10 |
| artillerytx | that blows | 07:10 |
| PhotoJim | check the cabling... cables can go bad or get loose | 07:10 |
| artillerytx | yeah i've done that and tried different slots | 07:10 |
| artillerytx | got nothin | 07:10 |
| PhotoJim | you might just be SOL | 07:11 |
| artillerytx | yeah | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | replace your drive with two identical drives, and do RAID1... at a minimum | 07:11 |
| artillerytx | im starting to feel that way | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | then if one dies you're still good | 07:11 |
| artillerytx | yeah thats what i've learned | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | and back up to a USB external | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | yup | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | we all have | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | we pick on you but we have all had it happen to us :) | 07:11 |
| artillerytx | yeah its no fun man not at all | 07:11 |
| PhotoJim | nope | 07:12 |
| PhotoJim | all my important data is on three drives... two on RAID1 and one on Firewire in an external enclosure | 07:12 |
| PhotoJim | but I've only had it configured thus for about half a year | 07:12 |
| artillerytx | yeah i bought this server for fun and ended up using it for some serious work | 07:12 |
| artillerytx | and now im SOL on 2 months of work and out $300 | 07:13 |
| PhotoJim | my server is SCSI too, 4 drives, so I did RAID1 / and RAID1 /usr. then added SATA and two 1 TB SATA drives (plus said firewire drive) for /home and a /public share. | 07:13 |
| PhotoJim | oh, that sucks. backups, backups, backups. | 07:13 |
| artillerytx | haha i feel so stupid for not doing it ... and i was hoping i could grab the files off and still have a lesson learned | 07:14 |
| PhotoJim | you might still | 07:14 |
| PhotoJim | let it cool off... and try it again tomorrow | 07:14 |
| PhotoJim | I had a SCSI drive on an ancient computer that seized up | 07:14 |
| artillerytx | yeah i let the drive sit all day pretty much and it showed up for about 15 mins | 07:14 |
| PhotoJim | after 3 days of being on it fired up | 07:14 |
| artillerytx | i only need to get 3 GB off | 07:15 |
| artillerytx | it should take 5 MIns top | 07:15 |
| PhotoJim | cool it off. fire it up. copy fast. | 07:15 |
| artillerytx | haha tahts why i wish i had an enclosure | 07:15 |
| PhotoJim | bedtime for me. good luck :) | 07:15 |
| artillerytx | thanks | 07:16 |

| StrangeCharm | what cli program should i look at for making incremental backups? | 08:24 |
| _ruben | rsync :) | 08:27 |
| artillerytx | if my sever is hot-swap that means i can remove and add hard drives while the computer is on ? | 08:36 |
| ewook | yes, but not while filesystems on the disks are active. | 08:37 |
| ewook | note that hot-swap bays does not equals to hot-swap enabled system. | 08:38 |
| ewook | StrangeCharm: rsync / bacula / etc | 08:38 |
| _ruben | dependong on the raid config, the os might not even notice the swap | 08:39 |
| artillerytx | ahh | 08:43 |
| artillerytx | if i do fdisk -l and it tells me like sda is the drive its using then every drive listed is associated with that drive correct | 08:43 |
| artillerytx | like it lists sda1, sda2, sda5 | 08:45 |

But there should be none other than myself, this is (I thought) a closed virtual server in vmware on my desktop with no outside LAN or any real domain access.

| azlon_ | hello, i was referred here from #ubuntu | 11:09 |
| azlon_ | i am trying to get my raid running again after reinstalling 9.04 today. it is using mdadm | 11:09 |
| azlon_ | when i do sudo mdadm --assemble --scan it says: mdadm: /dev/md0 assembled from 2 drives - not enough to start the array. | 11:10 |
| azlon_ | i see all of the drives when i do fdisk -l though | 11:10 |
| _ruben | azlon_: what do the logs say? | 11:24 |
| azlon_ | _ruben, what logs should i post? | 11:24 |
| _ruben | azlon_: i know atleast the output of `dmesg` shows mdadm related, probably ends up in /var/log/syslog as well | 11:25 |
| azlon_ | http://pastebin.com/d2876a76a | 11:26 |
| azlon_ | that is the var/log/syslog | 11:26 |
| azlon_ | not sure how i can post all of dmesg to pastebin | 11:27 |
| azlon_ | i just replaced my primary drive and reinstalled ubuntu... i thought it would be easy to get my raid working on a new system | 11:29 |
| azlon_ | should i boot from my old drive just to verify that the raid is still good? | 11:29 |
| _ruben | the drive you replaced was part of the raid (which raid level over how many disks?) | 11:30 |
| azlon_ | no, it was seperate | 11:30 |
| azlon_ | i have a RAID-5 with 4x1TB HDDs | 11:30 |
| _ruben | ok | 11:31 |
| azlon_ | this is my fdisk if it helps: http://pastebin.com/d41e817d1 | 11:31 |
| azlon_ | i was running an old crappy 40GB IDE that started making noises so i upgraded to a 500GB SATA | 11:31 |
| azlon_ | i guess i could go back to the 40GB but i think its just a matter of time until the drive fails | 11:32 |
| _ruben | what does cat /proc/mdstat show? | 11:33 |
| azlon_ | hrmm... wtf... http://pastebin.com/d6e497c01 | 11:34 |
| azlon_ | looks like 2 drives are on md0 and 2 drives are on md_d1 | 11:34 |
| azlon_ | i dont know what md_d1 is... | 11:34 |
| azlon_ | the guys in #ubuntu had me do: mdadm --assemble --scan --auto-update-homehost | 11:34 |
| _ruben | some superblocks got messed up it seems | 11:35 |
| azlon_ | ugh, that sounds bad | 11:35 |
| _ruben | can be, doesnt have to be | 11:35 |
| _ruben | there've been numerous times where i was afraid to have lost terabytes of data, but managed to get them back eventually :) | 11:35 |
| azlon_ | is there a simple command to repair it or should i start putting things back the way they were and hope it works | 11:36 |
| _ruben | first thing you should do is stop that md_d1 raid .. mdadm --manage --stop /dev/md_d1 i think | 11:36 |
| azlon_ | mdadm: stopped /dev/md_d1 | 11:36 |
| _ruben | doesnt hurt to try with the old disk, but i dont expect it to be any different | 11:36 |
| _ruben | i've been wrong before though :) | 11:37 |
| azlon_ | should i do mdadm -a /dev/sda1 and same for sdb1? | 11:37 |
| azlon_ | er... mdadm -a /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 | 11:38 |
| azlon_ | something like that | 11:38 |
| _ruben | mdadm /dev/md0 --add /dev/sda1 ... might need a --force .. and that's where it gets tricky :) | 11:38 |
| azlon_ | ugh | 11:38 |
| azlon_ | let me try the old drive first... | 11:38 |

| twb | So I have an md RAID1 array for /boot, and root on another RAID5/LVM LV. | 12:40 |
| twb | I have deliberately degraded the arrays by removing one disk, and now the kernel hangs at around 80s trying to add and remove(?) nodes from the arrays. | 12:41 |
| twb | I vaguely recall I need to add a boot: parameter to say "allow degraded arrays during boot", but my google-fu is weak. | 12:41 |
| twb | Never mind! It timed out and busybox told me exactly what to type! | 12:41 |
| twb | (We're talking about bootdegraded=true.) | 12:44 |
| pmatulis | twb: you need to add 'bootdegraded=true' as a permanent kernel boot option? | 12:56 |
| twb | No, only during recovery | 12:57 |
| twb | IIRC, anyway | 12:57 |
| pmatulis | why not have it permanent? | 12:57 |
| twb | I suppose because you don't want to accidentally boot (i.e. mount -o remount,rw) a system without any parity disk. | 12:57 |
| twb | Especially if your idiot customers don't read their logfiles, and you "aren't allowed" to... but that's another story. >rant< | 12:58 |
| pmatulis | twb: what if the server is remote? | 13:00 |
| twb | Well, what happens currently in this case is I have to talk them (over the phone!) through downloading a rescue CD and reinstalling grub, because grub doesn't cope with the BIOS renumbering the SATA drives | 13:01 |
| twb | So I'm comparatively happy to talk them through adding "bootdegraded=true" to the extlinux boot prompt | 13:02 |
| twb | I guess I'm assuming that if it was safe to turn it on all the time, the Debian/Ubuntu maintainers would have made it the default. | 13:02 |
| twb | In this case, it has failed badly because as well as removing a disk, this is a scratch install so it hadn't finished syncing the 750GiB array before I deliberately degraded it :-) | 13:04 |

| Spartan7 | checking | 17:38 |
| genii | scrash09: Support community is very helpful with Ubuntu, also there are definite release and support cycles, unlike Debian | 17:39 |
| genii | ( Debian is a "rolling release" ) | 17:40 |
| scrash09 | genii: hi. re: community. i just noticed that there IS a ubuntu-server ch, but no debian-server channel. tough to get server questions answered in debian ... | 17:42 |
| scrash09 | re: rolling release. not sure --yet -- if it matters to me. coming from opensuse where i need 25+ non-standard repos on top of a "release" just to not be horribly disfunctional and out of date -- it was, as well, effectively a rolling-release | 17:42 |
| scrash09 | hm. docs online look very polished ... at least, prolific | 17:45 |

| Spartan7 | is there a on off switch on the mobo for the nic? | 17:46 |
| scrash09 | ok, ubuntu-server's installing ... in the meantime, let's try this here. | 17:57 |
| scrash09 | I've config'd exim server to exec the service as "exim -C /non/standard/path/exim.conf". Runs fine (on debain; soon on ubuntu, i presume). Cron jobs that mail, however, still invoke "just exim (or, sendmail)" which tries to use the compiled-in default config @ /etc/exim/exim.conf. | 17:57 |
| scrash09 | What's the right way to make cron, and any/all invocations of exim by server daemons etc, use the '/non/standard/path/exim.conf'? | 17:57 |

| bventura | i have a dns problem if anyone can help see here: | 19:04 |
| bventura | http://snippets.dzone.com/user/bventura | 19:04 |
| bventura | i can't reach my CNAME'd host, i think that double name thing must be related, the dig line where it says mail.mydomain.com.529373INCNAMEubuntusvr2.mydomain.com.mydomain.com. | 19:05 |
| bventura | what did i do wrong? | 19:05 |
| smoser | AnirbanHazra, it depends what is doing the caching | 19:06 |
| smoser | if you're using dnsmasq easiest way is to restart it. | 19:07 |
| smoser | if its somewhere upstream from you, you can't do anything afaik | 19:07 |
| AnirbanHazra | smoser: reflecting the old ip aadess instead of new one of my doaminn | 19:10 |
| smoser | it depends on what is doing the caching. you have no control over any dns server other than your own. | 19:10 |
| smoser | if you just want to "fix" it temporarily on your system, i suggest putting the updated value in /etc/hosts | 19:10 |

| bventura | i'm not sure what that IP is, the network solutions DNS server? | 20:03 |
| bventura | oops crap i forgot to substitudte my real domain name hold on | 20:04 |
| _ruben | heheh | 20:04 |

| bventura | mail.mydomain.com.604800INCNAMEubuntusvr2.mydomain.com. | 20:05 |

| bventura | ubuntusvr2.mydomain.com. 604800 INA75.101.46.103 | 20:05 |
| _ruben | so your local resolver config is broken, it doesnt treat mail.mydomain.com as a fqdn | 20:06 |
| _ruben | one of the workarounds would be to remove "search mydomain.com" from /etc/resolv.conf | 20:06 |

| wizardslovak | ssdd heh , just installing ubuntu server on my old machine heh | 20:35 |
| wizardslovak | quick question , better to install LAMP which installing system or do it later/ | 20:36 |
| Len_ | wizardslovak: Do you know what's causing Ubuntu not recognize Raid 1 during installation | 20:36 |
| Len_ | ? | 20:36 |
| aubre | I like installing stuff later | 20:36 |
| wizardslovak | do you have raid card? | 20:36 |
| Len_ | the raid was set during boot. | 20:37 |
| wizardslovak | aubre: whats the difference btw now and later? later you will do updates which will be equall | 20:37 |
| Len_ | strange thing is that Ubuntu ask to load raid module | 20:37 |
| Len_ | but during installation it doesnt show any HD to make partition | 20:37 |
| aubre | wizardslovak: my old and crusty set ways is all | 20:37 |
| wizardslovak | i might be wrong but i read that ubuntu server has hard times with raid1 wihout card tho | 20:37 |
| wizardslovak | if it doesnt see HD in installation , check cables and power cables to HDs | 20:38 |
| wizardslovak | aubre: i am newbie heh | 20:38 |
| Len_ | I read something about on forums, but the informations were too vague | 20:38 |
| wizardslovak | some time ago i did web server but couldnt figure out postfix tho | 20:39 |
| wizardslovak | now i came back to finish it ;p;p | 20:39 |
| aubre | wizardslovak we were all newbs at one point | 20:39 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: if installation doesnt see HDs , There is some connection problem then | 20:39 |
| wizardslovak | aubre: true , | 20:39 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: what about jumper settings? | 20:40 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: is it dell pc? | 20:40 |
| Len_ | FP | 20:40 |
| Len_ | HP | 20:40 |
| Len_ | Jumper are ok, I installed Ubuntu server without raid on another machine | 20:40 |
| wizardslovak | aubre: i prefer when there is somebody who actually guides me true work , and i dont like to read all those howtos | 20:40 |
| Len_ | same configuration | 20:40 |
| Len_ | and when I erease array, it show both HD to install | 20:41 |
| aubre | wizardslovak: it takes some getting used to | 20:41 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: hmm | 20:41 |
| Len_ | wizardslovak: hmm sounds like trouble :P | 20:42 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: not trouble , i just never installed raid | 20:42 |
| Len_ | I think I'll just install it without raid then | 20:43 |
| wizardslovak | Len_: http://advosys.ca/viewpoints/2007/04/setting-up-software-raid-in-ubuntu-server/ | 20:43 |
| Len_ | wizardslovak: from what I know, raid software it's different when raid it's implemented on hardware | 20:44 |
| Len_ | wizardslovak: Hardware has a better performance | 20:45 |
| wizardslovak | lol , i told you i dont know much about raid and never installed it | 20:46 |

| smoser | $ cat /proc/partitions | 22:06 |
| smoser | major minor #blocks name | 22:06 |
| smoser | 8 2 156352512 sda2 | 22:06 |
| smoser | 8 3 917504 sda3 | 22:06 |
| smoser | 8 1 10485760 sda1 | 22:06 |
| smoser | the uec image is only sda1 | 22:06 |
| smoser | its a partition image | 22:06 |
| smoser | ec2 adds these other paritions, one with some space (that we mount at /mnt) and one with swap (sda3) that we use. | 22:07 |
| smoser | uec should do that too | 22:07 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: http://packages.debian.org/sid/libvirt-bin | 22:07 |
| smoser | addisonj_, i'd use rsync and --exclude | 22:08 |
| smoser | http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic/20091008.6 will have new output soon (ignore my comment on .3 before). | 22:10 |
| smoser | http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic/20091008.6/ is there now, and i'm leaving for a few hours at least. maybe till morning. | 22:16 |
| mathiaz | smoser: all *SUMS files are empty on http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic/20091008.6/ | 22:28 |
| foxray | hi is it possible to install ubuntu server on a virtual machine and access it from outside, trying to setup an ftp server | 22:30 |
| smoser | mathiaz, hmm... yeah, i'll have to look at that tomorrow, it must have not realized it should sum something named .tar.gz | 22:33 |
| smoser | hmm.. but then it did in the unpacked dir. | 22:33 |
| smoser | tomorrow. | 22:33 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Hi, I'm trying to change the motd, but I guess it keeps getting overwritten by update-motd. I like most of what that package does, but I want to remove the uname line in particular -- however I can't find where that is added (it isn't any of the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/). Does anyone know where that is added so I can remove it? | 23:32 |

| wizardslowik | how to set up apache | 23:44 |
| wizardslowik | apache works | 23:45 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Maybe you should start by stating what *doesn't* work and maybe someone can help you (not me however, I know next to nothing about apache) | 23:46 |
| wizardslowik | ok | 23:46 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Also note that #httpd is apache's channel on freenode | 23:46 |
