[00:01] <helfire> my 8.04.3 server, apache takes my load to 150+ when say 50 requests come at it, and the load wont go back down. This locks up my server every time google indexes it
[00:09] <ghostlines> can anyone help me with a cod4 dedicated server setup?
[00:10] <ikonia> whats the problem ?
[00:10] <ghostlines> i run the server, but can't connect to it to join a game
[00:11] <ghostlines> when i do a nmap scan the port isn't open so I'm not suprised
[00:11] <ikonia> drop you're firewall
[00:11] <ghostlines> netstat also doesn't show anything
[00:11] <ikonia> nmap isn't the best tool to check
[00:11] <ghostlines> the firewall in my router you mean?
[00:11] <ikonia> then the server isn't running
[00:11] <ghostlines> cuz i don't have ufw setup in ubuntu
[00:11] <ikonia> if netstat doesn't show it listening, it's not running
[00:11] <smackd> in squirrelmail im getting this error.. what does this mean..
[00:11] <smackd> Transaction failed
[00:11] <smackd> 554 5.7.1 <matt14213@yahoo.com>: Relay access denied
[00:11] <ikonia> smackd: it means youre mail server is not setup as a mail relay
[00:12] <ikonia> smackd: look at your smtp server settings
[00:13] <ghostlines>  i don't have a firewall setup, unless ubuntu confifures one by default
[00:13] <ikonia> ghostlines: it's not listening
[00:13] <ikonia> ghostlines: that's the problem, not the firewall
[00:13] <ikonia> if netstat doesn't show it as listening - it's not running
[00:14] <ghostlines> my bad you said something about a firewall so i commented on that
[00:14] <ghostlines> indeed it isn't running
[00:14] <ghostlines> but in my cod4 console it does say that it's running strange
[00:15] <ikonia> so there is your answer
[00:16] <ghostlines> cool, I'll look into why the codserver is giving probs, thanks for your help
[00:40] <xander787> i upgraded my ubuntu server 9.04 (with gnome) to 9.10 and now it wont boot and spits out the error: mountall: symbol lookup error: mountall: undefined symbol: udev_monitor_filter_add_match_subsystem_devtype
[01:44] <XiXaQ> I'm wondering about this with encrypted home and mailserver. Will it work at all? Would it make it possible to setup a mailserver where even I cannot read the mail of my users at all?
[01:47] <aperson> howdy: my server isn't serving up php files, my browser asks to download  phtml files
[01:47] <aperson> I've gone through the troubleshooting with the ubuntuserverguide
[01:56] <jmarsden> aperson: Is the issue with .php files, .phtml files, or both?  And which version of Ubuntu Server are you running?
[01:58] <aperson> jmarsden, I am running ubuntu-desktop and I installed lamp via tasksel
[01:58] <aperson> 9.10
[01:59] <jmarsden> OK... and if you create a file called say test.php does that render correctly?
[01:59] <aperson> yes
[02:00] <jmarsden> But test.phtml does not.  Sounds like you just need to add a handler for .phtml files somewhere... let me explore ...
[02:00] <aperson> I do not have any phtml files
[02:01] <aperson> or at least everything is .php
[02:01] <aperson> it's just the index.php that won't work
[02:02] <jmarsden> AHA... then it is not PHP handling you need to change just the DirectoryIndex setting
[02:02] <jmarsden> Note that saying "my server isn't serving up php files" when in reality you mean "my server is not serving index.phtml" is confusing to those trying to help you...
[02:02] <aperson> sorry
[02:03] <aperson> I didn't realize that it was just the index.php that wasn't working up until you said reminded me that the test.php worked
[02:03] <aperson> wow, sentences, I apparently can't form them
[02:05] <jmarsden> OK.  Try editing the file /etc/apache2/mods-available/dir.conf so the DirectoryIndex line has index.phtml at the end of it, and restart apache2 and retest
[02:07] <aperson> nope
[02:08] <aperson> still asks to download it
[02:09] <jmarsden> Hmmm.  If you create a test.phtml file it definitely renders OK, right?
[02:09] <aperson> let me double check
[02:10] <aperson> anything specific I should put in there?
[02:10] <jmarsden> some PHP :)
[02:10] <aperson> sadly, I know none
[02:10] <aperson> I'll change the test.php
[02:11] <jmarsden> You are setting up a PHP web server without knowing PHP?  ... OK... try the contents of http://pastebin.com/f75a19f9f
[02:11] <aperson> renders fine
[02:11] <jmarsden> OK, so it is definitely indexing related.
[02:12] <jmarsden> Where did you get the PHP you are working with and does anything else you did define DirectoryIndex somewhere?  a .htaccess file perhaps?
[02:12] <aperson> I don't have any .htaccess files
[02:12] <aperson> this is for an irpg
[02:13] <aperson> it worked fine on my old server
[02:14] <jmarsden> Old server as in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS?   Or something else?   I'll set up a fresh apache2 install in a VM and add index.phtml to that line in dir.conf and test here...
[02:14] <aperson> I haven't edited any configs other than what you've had me do and creating a /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn
[02:15] <aperson> I think I was running 8.10 at the time
[02:15] <aperson> btw, thank you for your help so far
[02:17] <aperson> maybe if I create a .htaccess for it to process the file?
[02:18] <jmarsden> OK... let's see if I can duplicate this.  On my (Ubuntu 9.04 amd64) desktop index.php definitely works as expected...
[02:18] <aperson> hmm
[02:19] <aperson> I can try purging and re-installing everything
[02:19] <jmarsden> Is the file named /var/www/index.php or is it somewhere else?
[02:19] <aperson> just to be sure we have a clean install
[02:19] <aperson> it's in /var/www/irpg/index.php
[02:19] <aperson> let me see if it'll work in /var/www/
[02:20] <aperson> that one works
[02:20] <aperson> so it's just the other dir
[02:21] <jmarsden> Ok, pastebin that config file you put under conf.d somewhere so I can see what is in it, please
[02:22] <aperson> the fqdn?
[02:22] <jmarsden> Yes, if that is what you called it.
[02:22] <aperson> ServerName localhost
[02:22] <jmarsden> No... use pastebin, don't put all of it here :)
[02:22] <aperson> that is it
[02:23] <jmarsden> Oh.  That's all?  OK...
[02:23] <aperson> that was just to stop apache from complaining when I started it
[02:23] <jmarsden> I'll have a fresh 9.10 server VM running here in a few minutes I can test with... if I can reproduce the issue I can almost certainly fix it too :)
[02:24] <aperson> :D
[02:27] <jmarsden> BTW a sane one line test.php or test.phtml or index.phtml or whatever would be    <?php phpinfo(); ?>
[02:28] <aperson> that's what I was using :)
[02:30] <jmarsden> OK... booting into my new fresh 9.10 server Vm now...
[02:31] <aperson> huzzah
[02:31] <aperson> virtualbox?
[02:33] <aperson> ooh, permission error perhaps?
[02:34] <jmarsden> Yes, virtualbox... and it works fine for me in /var/www/irpg/index.php  "out of the box", no config changes at all.
[02:34] <aperson> blast
[02:35] <jmarsden> well, at least it suggests you are not facing some new weird 9.10 bug :)
[02:35] <jmarsden> You can try changing the perms on index.php but as long as they are at least 644 all should be well.
[02:36] <aperson> no dice
[02:38] <jmarsden> And perms on /var/www/irpg are sane too?
[02:38] <aperson> yes
[02:38] <poningru> aperson, what is the issue?
[02:38] <poningru> reading up
[02:38] <aperson> I 777'd everything just for now
[02:38] <poningru> hmm
[02:38] <poningru> I see
[02:39] <aperson> poningru, I can serve index.php from /var/www/ but not from any folders below it
[02:39] <poningru> oh?!
[02:39] <poningru> wtf
[02:39] <aperson> I wonder if it'd do the same for an index.html
[02:39] <poningru> can you pastebin your apache2.conf?
[02:39] <aperson> sure
[02:40] <poningru> and your default-ssl from sites-enabled if appropriate
[02:40] <aperson> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312929/
[02:42] <jmarsden> Unchanged from the default, as far as I can see.
[02:42] <poningru> looking
[02:42] <aperson> off-topic: THERE'S A /etc/apache2/magic
[02:42] <poningru> yeah
[02:42] <poningru> lol
[02:42] <poningru> btw yeah was re: jmarsden
[02:44] <jmarsden> aperson: There is indeed, but it shouldn't have anything in it about PHP or PHTML
[02:44] <aperson> I know it doesn't have to do anything with my problem, I just found it amusing
[02:45] <aperson> still want the default-ssl?
[02:46] <jmarsden> aperson: Sure.  Re magic files:   man file      to read about magic files and what they are used for :)
[02:46] <aperson> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312931/
[02:47] <jmarsden> aperson: You can even    man magic    :)
[02:47] <aperson> I haven't changed anything from the defaults that I know
[02:48] <jmarsden> Yes, that looks nice and boring too...
[02:50] <jmarsden> aperson: Can you check the issue is with all subdirectories (maybe just irpg??)... sudo mkdir /var/www/somedir && sudo cp -p /var/www/irpg/index.php /var/www/somedir    and then browse to localhost/somedir/index.php
[02:51] <aperson> will try 'er out
[02:52] <aperson> it... works?
[02:52] <aperson> now I'm bothered
[02:52] <aperson> so it's the directory
[02:53] <jmarsden> OK, so is there another file index.* under /var/www/irpg/   or is there a file /var/www/irpg/.htaccess ?
[02:53] <jmarsden> actually, I'm relieved... it isn't apache, it is something you put in that directory :)
[02:53] <aperson> last I checked I didn't have any .htaccess files
[02:54] <aperson> there are no other files with the name index
[02:55] <jmarsden> OK, you can check if it moves with the directory, so   sudo mv /var/www/irpg /var/www/irpg-new and then browse to http://localhost/irpg-new/index.php
[02:56] <jmarsden> Basically from here we can narrow down the cause until we find it...
[02:56] <aperson> could it be that the files aren't in the right group?
[02:56] <jmarsden> For read access is shouldn't matter.
[02:57] <jmarsden> Move irpg to irpg-new, test , then we can move somedir to irpg and retest that...
[02:57] <aperson> will do
[02:58] <aperson> moving it worked
[02:58] <jmarsden> Hmmm.  So it works fine as irpg-new ?
[02:58] <aperson> yes
[02:58] <jmarsden> Then somewhere there must be something mentioning or configuring irpg by name...
[02:59] <jmarsden> To confirm that, mv somedir to irpg and test browsing to irpg/index.php
[02:59] <jmarsden> and it should fail.
[03:00] <aperson> yeah
[03:01] <jmarsden> OK.  So... who or what is configuring irpg "specially"?   Does grep -ri irpg /etc/apache2/    output anything?
[03:02] <aperson> nope
[03:04] <jmarsden> This is starting to feel rather odd... *something* is causing that index.php to not render correctly.  Can you pastebin the output of    ls -la /var/www/irpg/   for me, just in case that helps?
[03:05] <aperson> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312944/
[03:07] <jmarsden> Hmm, I was expecting a dir with just index.php in it... since at this point irpg/ should be the renamed somedir ... what happened?
[03:07] <aperson> oh, I'be been moving things back and forth
[03:07] <aperson> let me move things again
[03:07] <jmarsden> That's ... not helpful :)
[03:09] <jmarsden> also, the index.php in there is big, way more than just <?php phpinfo(); ?>
[03:09] <aperson> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312946/
[03:10] <jmarsden> That index.php is way big, too...
[03:10] <poningru> aperson, quick question what does firefox say is the mime type of that file?
[03:10] <aperson> oh, gah
[03:10] <aperson> I moved the index.php from the irpg back into the irpg folder :/
[03:11] <aperson> I forgot which folder I had the test one in
[03:11] <jmarsden> aperson: It is really hard to work with you if you keep doing silent changes to the test setup!
[03:11] <aperson> well, sorry
[03:11] <aperson> I'm not doing anything major, just moving files around
[03:11] <jmarsden> OK, let's retest with a /var/www/irpg that has just a one line index.php in it.
[03:12] <aperson> doesn't make a difference
[03:13] <jmarsden> Try restarting apache and retesting, just in case somehow that got cached
[03:13] <aperson> nope
[03:14] <jmarsden> OK, now  sudo mv /var/www/irpg/ /var/www/irpg2  and browse to that -- let's make sure that works fine.
[03:14] <aperson> http://imgur.com/8gA2x.png
[03:15] <jmarsden> aperson: Is this some sort of weird FF issue?  CAn you browse using lynx or some other browser and see if it makes any difference?
[03:16] <aperson> I have on multiple computers and a couple of different browsers
[03:16] <aperson> chromium mostly
[03:16] <aperson> irpg2 works
[03:18] <jmarsden> OK... so somewhere there seems to be something configuring Apache not to interpret index.php when it is in the irpg directory.  But any other directory name works fine.
[03:19] <aperson> I haven't edited any config files specifically for anything related to that
[03:19] <aperson> I can purge the server and re-install for sanity's sake
[03:20] <jmarsden> OK... at this point I'm not sure what else to suggest :)
[03:20] <aperson> but I *really don't recall* editing anything from the defaults
[03:21] <jmarsden> FYI, someone else did complain about this kind of an issue here in #ubuntu-server last month, but then they said they'd research it some more.. and they didn't come back to say what they discovered...
[03:22] <jmarsden> This kind of issue as in FF saying it got a PHTML file... not necessarily that it only happens in the irpg directory!
[03:23] <jmarsden> It was tiger2wander on 2009-10-21, according to my logs.
[03:23] <aperson> purged... now re-installing
[03:24] <jmarsden> OK.
[03:24] <aperson> weird, I'm in /var/www
[03:24] <aperson> and sudo is telling me it can't get the working directory
[03:24] <aperson> nvm
[03:24] <jmarsden> cd /var/www   --- you are in an old deleted /var/www not the newly created on.
[03:25] <aperson> just figured that :)  I shouldn't think out loud so much
[03:25] <jmarsden> :)
[03:26] <aperson> nope, doesn't work
[03:26] <aperson> let me double check that
[03:27] <jmarsden> Try testing without moving any of the old files, the real irpg/* files, back in.  Just create a one liner index.php and test with that.
[03:27] <aperson> ok, so I looked inside the phtml file
[03:27] <jmarsden> OK...
[03:27] <aperson> I deleted the entire /var/www/*
[03:28] <aperson> I used the test php for /var/www/irpg/index.php
[03:28] <aperson> and the file that got spit out was the irpg index.php
[03:28] <aperson> I tried that in two different browsers on two different computers
[03:29] <aperson> and it's always a .part file from firefox
[03:29] <jmarsden> OK... but uninterpreted.  That's what I'd expect if Apache is (somehow/somewhere) being told not to interpret that file...  Not sure about the .part thing, that is probably just a Firefox-ism.
[03:29] <aperson> yeah
[03:29] <aperson> but why would it be spitting out the file that isn't there?
[03:30] <jmarsden> The file isn't there??
[03:30] <aperson> I'm using the test php index.php
[03:30] <aperson> not the irpg one
[03:30] <aperson> it's spitting out the irpg one
[03:30] <jmarsden> Oh, the big real one?
[03:30] <aperson> yeah
[03:30] <fxhp> I just followed this guide, but I'm unable to ping my vm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JeOSVMBuilder
[03:31] <jmarsden> aperson: OK, so something is either caching it, or you have some config file somewhere changing how Apache is behaving.  Where on your machine do you currently have copies of that larger index.php ?
[03:31] <aperson> on a flashdrive
[03:32] <jmarsden> umount the flashdrive and retest
[03:32] <aperson> same thing
[03:33] <jmarsden> So either there is another copy, or something is caching big time... are you running squid or anything similar on this machine??
[03:35] <jmarsden> Worst case you could reboot the machine, but that will make finding the real culprit harder.
[03:36] <aperson> no squid
[03:36] <aperson> I can reboot it
[03:36] <jmarsden> First try stopping apache2 and then starting it ?
[03:37] <aperson> too late
[03:37] <jmarsden> Ok :)
[03:39] <aperson> same thing
[03:39] <aperson> where would the cache be?
[03:40] <jmarsden> In some service that is doing caching... ?  Are you browsing to localhost or to a real IP address?  Does it make any difference?
[03:41] <aperson> no difference
[03:41] <jmarsden> aperson: If you stop apache completely and then browse to it, what happens?
[03:41] <jmarsden> Maybe this PHTML is not really coming from your apache server at all??
[03:41] <aperson> failed to connect
[03:41] <aperson> it has to be coming from it
[03:42] <aperson> I've been testing it on multiple computers
[03:43] <jmarsden> aperson: well, you could theoretically have had another service sending it to all of them... but if stopping apache prevents it, that's somewhat conclusive.
[03:43] <aperson> SUCCESS
[03:43] <jmarsden> OK... what was it?
[03:43] <aperson> sudo service apache start-htcacheclean
[03:43] <aperson> thank you, tab-completion
[03:44] <aperson> well, not out of the water yet
[03:44] <aperson> I still need to test the site
[03:44] <aperson> but it's serving the test php from /var/www/irpg
[03:44] <jmarsden> Ok, well, at leats I was right about the caching :)  That's mod_cache ...
[03:45] <jmarsden> Did you install that on purpose, or is it there by default?
[03:45] <aperson> all I did was tasksel and selected lamp
[03:45] <aperson> to install the server
[03:46] <aperson> success!
[03:46] <aperson> jmarsden, your patience is amazing :)
[03:46] <aperson> and I think you much for stick with me through this
[03:46] <aperson> s/stick/sticking
[03:46] <jmarsden> Cool.  No problem, I'm glad we got there in the end :)  Now I can go eat!
[03:47] <aperson> same here!
[03:47] <aperson> I've been dying to eat
[03:49] <aperson> wait
[03:49] <aperson> well, don't
[03:50] <aperson> GAAH
[03:51] <aperson> it won't serve it again
[03:53] <aperson> it's a problem with the config.php
[04:12] <jmarsden> aperson: I'm back... what did you change in which config.php to fix it?
[04:16] <aperson> setting: $BASEURL="/irpg/";
[04:16] <aperson> causes the error
[04:17] <jmarsden> Ah, Ok, so there really was a config file with the string irpg in it... but that file was where exactly on the machine?
[04:18] <aperson> /var/www/irpg
[04:18] <aperson> if you're really interested, I can pastebin the offending files, but I have it fixed for the moment
[04:18] <jmarsden> OK.  That explains why searching under /etc/apache2/ failed to see it :)  No, that's fine, makes sense now.  Thanks.
[04:19] <aperson> huzzah!  fixed my other error I was getting :D
[04:19] <jmarsden> :)
[04:19] <aperson> had to install php5-gd
[04:20] <jmarsden> OK... looks like we're going out for coffee and dessert... glad it is all (finally!) working.
[04:21] <aperson> thanks much jmarsden
[04:47] <ScottK> sommer: Are you going to update ldapscripts?  Debian is way ahead of us now.
[08:28] <kaushal> hi
[08:29] <kaushal> what are the causes for degradation in Hardware RAID ?
[14:23] <davdm2010> hi, looking for some help. I am a newb, just want to clarify that up front.
[17:14] <StrangeCharm> what's the name of the lamp metapackage?
[17:15] <kblin> apache mysql-server php-cgi ?
[17:15] <kblin> apache2, probably
[17:16] <StrangeCharm> kblin, isn't there a metapackage that includes the correct packages
[17:19] <kblin> StrangeCharm: not that I'm aware of.. though you can probably use tasksel to pick it
[17:20] <StrangeCharm> kblin, tasksel is launched with sudo tasksel?
[17:20] <kblin> I think so.. it's been years since I last ran it manually, I'm afraid
[17:35] <terinjokes> hey guys, i think i have a configuration issue with fither interfaces or dhcpd
[17:37] <terinjokes> my server box gets the internet from wifi and shares it over eth0... setting on the desktop, i can get the server (at 192.168.3.2) but not the internet
[17:37] <terinjokes> s/setting/sitting/g
[17:46] <terinjokes> no ideas?
[18:09] <kane_> terinjokes: chances are your gateway's not setup properly.. a quick google offers this howto that might be helpful: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[18:09] <terinjokes> kane_: you mean the server?
[18:09] <kane_> yeah, on the server
[18:10] <terinjokes> kane_: from the wrkgroup i can connect to the server, and it's resources, but nothing past that
[18:11] <kane_> right, that's the gateway issue; the server has to connect eth0 to it's wifi for you. take a read through the howto,it shoudl explain a lot
[18:11] <terinjokes> kane_: if only i had internet :P
[18:11] <kane_> terinjokes: i'm trusting you have internet, since you're on this *irc* channel :)
[18:12] <terinjokes> kane_: from sshing to the server from that internet-less desktop :P
[18:12] <kane_> apt-get install lynx to read webpages on the terminal
[18:13] <terinjokes> kane_: i know, 'cept i perfer links
[18:23] <terinjokes> looks like ubuntu.com when offline
[18:33] <terinjokes> kane_: crossing my fingures
[18:34] <terinjokes> nope, dropping the connection...
[18:39] <terinjokes> kane_: tried setting up iptables, no luck
[18:42] <baltadt> has anyone ever used Drupal?
[18:52] <terinjokes> kane_: works better when i don't drop *every* thing from iptables
[18:58] <terinjokes> kane_: E: Package ipmasq has no installation candidate
[19:15] <terinjokes> going down
[19:47] <ehazlett> greetings... can someone point me to docs on how to setup xen on 9.10 server?
[19:47] <ehazlett> (just to get the boot correctly with grub 2)
[20:03] <terinjokes> kane_: still there? tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyWirelessToWiredConnectionSharing which doesn't work either
[20:10] <kblin> terinjokes: so your packages from the local network don't get routed via the wifi?
[20:11] <terinjokes> packets, yep
[20:11] <terinjokes> i feel like that USPS right now...
[20:11] <kblin> er, packets..
[20:12] <kblin> ok, you switched on ipv4 forwarding?
[20:12] <kblin> and I assume you've set up masquerading?
[20:12] <terinjokes> echo 1 > /proc/something/something/ipv4/ip_forwarding
[20:13] <kblin> what does cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward give you?
[20:13] <terinjokes> kblin: i've added a postrouting to the nat iptable
[20:13] <RoyK> omg. the opensolaris community is even worse than some linux communities
[20:14] <terinjokes> kblin: right now "1", i assume on reboot that would go back to 0
[20:14] <kblin> yeah
[20:14] <terinjokes> (well, 1, no quotes)
[20:14] <kblin> but for now that should work
[20:15] <kblin> can you pastebin the output of "iptables -t nat -L"
[20:19] <terinjokes> sure... let me switch computers and reopen screen
[20:20] <terinjokes> kblin: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/313587/
[20:21] <kblin> what is your wireless interface, and how did you set up the masquerading?
[20:22] <terinjokes> kblin: wlan0
[20:22] <terinjokes> kblin: that one was http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[20:23] <terinjokes> kblin: if i follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyWirelessToWiredConnectionSharing i get http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/313591/
[20:23] <terinjokes> (i was using -s 192.168.3.0/16 in the iptables command midway through that last page
[20:24] <kblin> I jusdt want to see the iptables command you used
[20:25] <terinjokes> iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ethX -j MASQUERADE *or* iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.3.0/16 -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE
[20:25] <terinjokes> i do *not* have dnsmasq or ipmasq installed
[20:30] <terinjokes> kblin: and for good measure my interfaces and dhcpd configuration: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/313597/
[20:30] <kblin> perfect, I was just about to ask
[20:31] <kblin> ok
[20:33] <terinjokes> kblin: something wrong?
[20:36] <ehazlett> greetings all... i am trying to get xen to run on ubuntu 9.10 server.  i can't seem to get it to boot xen
[20:40] <smackd> why would netstat only show apache2 listening on tcp6  :::80 ?? and not 4
[20:41] <terinjokes> kblin: anything?
[20:54] <kblin> terinjokes: sorry, pinged out
[20:54] <kblin> terinjokes: the second entry looks better, but not quite right yet
[20:55] <kblin> do an iptables -t nat -F
[20:55] <kblin> that will flush the old rules
[20:55] <kblin> oh, and please pastebin the output of "iptables -L"
[20:56] <kblin> then do an iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE
[20:56] <kblin> that together with the ip_forwarding setting should be sufficient to masquerade your clients out
[20:57] <kblin> unless your firewall is acting funny
[21:09] <ninjah> I'm trying to unmount a file system that's bussy
[21:09] <ninjah> How do I find out why its busy?
[21:11] <guntbert> ninjah: fuser -m <mountpoint> should help
[21:11] <kblin> lsof might help as well
[21:16] <ninjah> guntbert, kblin: lsof worked but fuser didn't give me much... Thanks!
[21:25] <russlar> ninjah: fuser -cu
[21:29] <terinjokes> kblin: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/313636/
[21:30] <kblin> terinjokes: looks good. should masquerade now if your clients are set up correctly
[21:31] <kblin> need to change trains, bbl
[21:31] <terinjokes> kblin: that's dandy... i wonder if i can get the PC to start with WOL
[21:53] <sjefen6> How can I make ubuntu server turn off the screen on my laptop when the screen is not being used (using ubuntu-server on my laptop)
[22:57] <MenZa> Is it possible to make update-motd update the motd on login?
[23:00] <MenZa> Specifically, I have a perl script I want to have executed on login. Perhaps I'm going about this the wrong way, so if there's a better option, please do point me towards it. :)
[23:05] <MenZa> It seems to me that the contents of /etc/motd is just sent to the user, but not run if indicated as a script. Perhaps I need to include the script (perl /path/to/file > /etc/motd) on login?
[23:05] <MenZa> Then again, that seems like a fairly bad solution
[23:10] <pmatulis> MenZa: you should be working with your users' shell files, not motd
[23:25] <MenZa> pmatulis: Why so?
[23:25] <MenZa> pmatulis: I'm showing information about the system, including load, number of currently logged-in users, stuff like that
[23:26] <MenZa> Makes perfect sense to have that information viewable on login.
