=== alex88 is now known as alex88[sleep] === astechgeek is now known as techgeek [00:48] hi all, having a problem here at home, I have a server running for months without problem, now without any change (except for upgrades to ubuntu) the server only works for a few minutes connected to a specific network switch and then stalls. connector to another switch seems to work to. other equipment (freeNAS, router, etc) works fine [00:56] New bug: #494267 in nagios3 (main) "package nagios3-cgi 3.2.0-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/494267 [01:02] jfig1234: do you have physical access to the host? [01:04] twb: yes [01:04] jfig1234: is the problem currently occurring? [01:06] twb: no, but i can easly re-plug the server on the switch [01:08] jfig1234: you want to collect information like "dpkg -l network-manager", "ethtool", "ip addr" and "ip route" both before and after the problem occurs. [01:08] jfig1234: you may also want to use tshark or tcpdump to perform packet sniffing [01:09] It may just be a switch or cable is dead, and needs to be replaced. [01:10] thanks, i'll give those a try, has for ports, cables, et all i've tried several... and oother equipment on that switch works fine [01:11] since its a test version i'll also try and install a older version of ubuntu and see if it works again [01:13] I do not think a different release will change anything. [01:18] anyone used the 'rescue mode' on the server disk? why is it asking me about a root fs? the root fs on this machine is trashed and the disks are going to fail. All I want to do is boot up a minimal install and copy the files off the machine, preferably across the network. [01:19] twb: i dont see how either but this has gotten me very bugged... same server works on one switch and not on another, switch thats causing the problems works fine with other equipment... that server was working for several months - on that switch - without and problem..... [01:19] I assume you have rebooted the switch [01:19] :) several time [01:19] cef: the rescue target will not help you there [01:20] twb: yeah.. and there isn't even an ftp client on the thing.. grr [01:20] cef: at least, it'll be far less hassle to find generic live media that includes lvm2/mdadm/whatever you need. [01:20] or scp [01:20] cef: you need to request sshd specifically [01:21] cef: it will appear as a checkbox if you boot with expert [01:21] twb: in the rescue? ahh ok.. I didn't boot with expert on the rescue mode [01:21] <`jpg> jfig1234: Clear the cache on the switch if it doesn't on reboot? [01:22] cef: try "rescue priority=low" [01:22] cef: but it'd be easier to just use a knoppix or centos live cd [01:22] just frustrating that the rescue mode is next to useless if the root fs is trashed, which, imho is one of the reasons you need a rescue disk [01:22] The ubuntu ones won't do because they don't include mdadm and lvm2 out of the box, and it's a PITA to install them [01:22] don't need either.. hardware raid [01:23] cef: I don't think rescue mode is intended to be a full-featured rescue system [01:23] but it's an older machine so any livecd that has a gui is going to run like a dog [01:24] cef: both centos and knoppix live CDs do not force you to run a GUI [01:24] This is another reason they are better than ubuntu's live CD for rescue purposes. [01:30] <`jpg> cef: Also take a look at hirens boot cd etc, there are lots of console only rescue cds out there that do a great job.

[03:33] oh_noes: most of what would be inittab is in /etc/event.d [03:34] oh_noes: Dapper was the last Ubuntu release with inittab. [03:35] With a default one, that is :-) [03:36] thanks guys, looks like upstart has an easier config than inittab too [03:36] * cef realises that if he wants to boot off a cdrom, it might be useful to have one in the machine.. oops! [03:36] The reason I ask is, I have an OS Appliance where I want to create a "Press F1 to do something" at the console CLI login [03:37] so I think (and please tell me if im wrong), modify /etc/event.d/tty1 and use a different getty? [03:38] I wonder if any getty alternatives have a 'create a keypess script' so when a keycombo is pressed it just runs a script [04:05] is there a tool that can compare the content of files [04:05] ?

[04:53] everything seems to work just fine, but I get occational messages in syslog that udevd pipe failed: too many open files [04:53] nope, everything is completely vanilla [04:54] Then that looks like a bug of some sort to me. [04:54] only thing I changed is the apache config and the flag not to prompt on fsck during boot in /etc/default/rcS [04:56] I get 55 in a freshly booted Ubuntu Karmic Server VM, so there is something different about udevd action on servers, it would seem [04:57] And it seems to be slowly increasing over time... 57 now...

[05:02] in your fstab [05:02] KismetGFX: Or, if you have a machine you can experiment with, first try a single drive default install, let the installer partition it for you and see if *that* boots OK? [05:02] jtaji: one ide two sata i didnt manually specify a /dev [05:03] KismetGFX: no I mean are your drives listed as, e.g. /dev/sda1 or UUID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?

[05:40] Hello, is it possible to configure ssh to use password authentication for a single user, while the others use public key authentication? [05:41] and the others can't use password? [05:42] yes, the others cant use password [05:42] Create keypairs for all the others, passwd -l all the others ... seems weird, but should work?? [05:42] it should [05:47] okay, would you recommend just forcing everyone to use a public key? [05:48] it worked btw thanks [05:48] No problem. Why are you forcing things? Who is the special person... if he determines your salary, do not force him :) [05:58] oh_noes: Did you get the sulogin on tty2 idea to work? [06:03] still looking at it now .. [06:04] not having any luck, hardy uses upstart so Im modifying /etc/event.d/tty2 [06:05] exec /sbin/getty -l /sbin/sulogin 38400 tty2 [06:05] doesnt seem to work which is kinda wierd. You would expect it to. [06:05] Sounds like it should, yes. [06:10] oh_noes: do you have an /etc/init/tty1.conf ? [06:10] tty2.conf [06:11] jtaji: On Hardy it is all in /etc/event.d/ instead [06:11] oh ok [06:14] i'll pastebin my /etc/event.d/tty2 [06:14] http://pastebin.com/m6704fcbe [06:15] when I go to tty2 ... it still displays /bin/login .... which is weird. [06:15] oh_noes: This is after a reboot to make sure you picked up the changes, right? [06:16] of course [06:19] Could you just exec a program that will output something, instead of getty, there, as a test? Like top or whatever? Just thinking out loud, I have not messed with getty and ttys for a very very long time... [06:22] yeah same ... im trying all those things now. [06:25] naa you cant exec straight into top. Which kinda makes sense, it's getty job to handle all character displays in/out (I think) [06:32] oh_noes: tried passing the standard getty the -l option? [06:35] nah ignore that [06:59] cef: even with -l it's still displaying a login prompt. [06:59] oh_noes: He already said nah ignore that [07:00] btw: -l option of getty runs the program with the 'username' as a command line option afaik [07:03] oh_noes: Is the -n option any use to you? Don't prompt for a login name? [07:03] In combination with -l ... [07:05] cef: i thought -l was to "use a different login program" [07:07] Trying -n -l /sbin/sulogin now [07:08] note: if it does, it runs as rooot [07:08] err root [07:10] oh_noes: For me on Karmic, editing /etc/init/tty2 to do exec /sbin/getty -8 -n -l /usr/bin/top 38400 tty2 # works [07:10] Major security risk, but it works :) [07:12] OH NICE, yep -n -l works :D [07:12] well -n -l /any/bin works [07:12] thanks jmarsden, i knew it was missing a single option [07:12] You're welcome.

[14:17] because it picks 'us.ec2.archive' [14:18] anyway. i was mainly afraid of "checking" and having that check hang or cause other general mishap [14:20] yeah that would have to be done very carefully if that was done [14:29] smoser: I've talked to one of the "other cloud providers" about kernels. Everyone offers Ubuntu, but with all sorts of odd kernels. I would like for them to use our kernels so that security updates come from us in a timely manner and everything is just more straightforward. Because they offer lots of other distros and want to use the same kernels everywhere, they compile everything into the kernel to avoid having to shove modules into all their im [14:29] smoser: If they were to use our kernels, they would have to follow the same approach: No modules, everything built in. [14:30] 100% "no modules" is not reasonable or possible [14:31] hello there [14:31] and realistically, i dont think we can promise that our kernels will run everyone elses user space perfectly. i'm certain the kernel team isn't willing to sign up to support that. [14:31] well, i didn't ask them, but.. [14:32] i've a strange problem on my server (ubuntu 9.04, 2.6.28-16-server) [14:32] after swapping drive /dev/sdb fdisk says: Unable to read /dev/sdb [14:32] but dmesg |grep SCSI [14:32] says it is there, [ 3.528223] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk [14:32] smoser: I'm not suggesting we explicitly volunteer to support everyone's user space. [14:33] also, i'm using software raid 1 [14:33] right, but building everything in just isn't reasonable. there are loads of kernel modules, iirc some dont even allow a 'Y' (that could be false) [14:33] any clues what could it be? [14:35] smoser: I know there's a lot of them. Luckily, only a subset are reasonably needed in a cloud context. [14:35] well, some that are reasonable are not reasonable to build in [14:35] i'm thinking fuse [14:36] Why not? [14:36] (fuse, specifically) [14:36] i dont know... just sdoesn't seem reasonabl e to me. one thing i would think is not so nice about everything built in is that it then can't be switched out. [14:37] but i coudl be wrong about that too [14:37] ie, i would think that if fuse is built into kernel than i can't service it with a kernel module upgrade [14:37] that may not be that big of a deal [14:38] Right, they'd have to upgrade the kernel images for all updates, even the ones that don't break ABI. [14:39] i was thinking even on a lower level, as in a user wants to build a more functional version of a kernel module in their instance [14:39] and use it , and maintain it. [14:39] lots of pepole do that for the ec2 provided kernels (xfs) for example. [14:56] smoser: Eh? Why? [14:57] because the amazon kernels a.) dont get serviced frequently b.) dont have enough stuff built in or as modules [14:58] the idea of "build more into the kernel" generally seems perpendicular to where things are going [14:59] things needed for boot i woudl consider a different category than "everything else" [15:00] For some reason we also needed to build the latest fuse kernel module from source when using the Amazon kernels: http://groups.google.com/group/ec2ubuntu/web/compiling-2-6-21-kernel-modules-from-source-for-amazon-ec2 [15:04] Well, the sun's up, so I'm heading to bed. [15:05] erichammond: bah - it's 4pm and the sun set an hour ago [15:06] I just realized I'm wrapping up my 3rd decade programming in January. That's 30 years. [15:17] I'm a bit new to administering ubuntu servers -- I have a production server for a website & database running ubuntu 8.10 Do server admins usually do dist-upgrades on servers, or just keep the current distro as long as possible? [15:18] The reason I ask is because I have rkhunter installed, and it is complaining about GPG, OpenSSL, and OpenSSH being outdated [15:22] savid: dist-upgrade will not update the release, only the installed packages. It is pretty safe. [15:22] alvin, ok, thanks :) [15:24] savid: $ sudo do-release-upgrade will upgrade to a newer release. In your case, that will be jaunty (9.04) After that, you can run do-release-upgrade again to upgrade to 9.10. There could be issues. [15:24] I see. [15:25] Well, it looks like it wouldn't matter because even 9.10 has outdated versions of those programs :-P [15:30] Would that be a bug in ubuntu, a bug in rkhunter, or neither? [15:31] savid: hardy has Gnupg 1.4.6, karmic has 1.4.9. What version does rkhunter needs? [15:31] gpg on my my server is updated to 1.4.9, not sure what version rkhunter is expecting [15:33] looks like I'm not the only one: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560157 [15:33] Debian bug 560157 in rkhunter "rkhunter: RKHunter complains about outdated versions of packages installed despite security updates" [Important,Open] [15:33] savid: Ubuntu 10.04 will also have gnupg 1.4.9, (this can still change) [15:34] savid: Ah, it's a bug in rkhunter then. If really needed you can ask for an upgraded package (see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages) [15:41] kirkland, ttx can you verify... if= for kvm booted eucalyptus instances ? [15:41] i think its 'scsi' [15:43] smoser: no setup running right now, maybe in a few === robbiew_ is now known as robbiew [16:41] smoser: test(s) in progress [16:41] i dont know how they will run [16:41] + the "i386 bundled without -r, does it run on UEC/i386" test [16:42] jjohansen, bug 494565 [16:42] Launchpad bug 494565 in linux "support ramdiskless boot for relavant kvm drive interfaces in -virtual" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/494565 [16:42] what to do when eucalyptus reports 'user admin not found' after just installing it? [16:42] ttx what did that mean, are you asking ? [16:43] smoser: no, I mean: "i will be running that test as well" [16:44] oh. ok. [16:44] nevermind, after a five minute wait it's here [16:44] i was thinking that '-r' == '--ramdisk', which i'm wondering about. see bug above.... i couldn't get it to work on "plain kvm" right now. === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [16:55] smoser: right, the current uec image tarballs do not have ramdisk [16:55] that is true [16:56] and by design [16:56] my question is if they boot [16:56] :) [16:56] hm [16:56] I have to adjust my testing script [16:56] i swear that i tested this, but today couldn't make kvm -ddrive if=scsi work with that kernel [16:57] ttx, you may want to utilize http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-on-ec2/ubuntu-on-ec2/uec-tools/annotate/head%3A/register-uec-tarball [16:57] i want to do this http://pastebin.com/m8365263 is it posiblle? [17:04] smoser: if=scsi, confirmed [17:05] smoser: I confirm that it does not boot [17:05] bugger [17:05] smoser: i confirm that UEC i386 doesn't seem to mind booting an image marked x86_64 [17:06] ttx, can you put that in that bug [17:06] smoser: do you need the euca-get-console-output for this one ? [17:07] ok, first, please comment in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eucalyptus/+bug/494084 that i386 doesn't seem to mind booting an image marked x86_64 [17:07] Launchpad bug 494084 in eucalyptus "arch parameter is not passed by the image proxy during image install from store" [Undecided,Confirmed] [17:07] smoser: sure [17:07] second, this really sucks. [17:08] because according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerLucidCloudKernelRamdisk i verified boot of 20091201 on uec [17:08] you want the console output ? Which bug ? [17:08] but 20091201 has since fallen off, so i can't easily confirm or refute my assertion [17:09] we need a new bug for "uec images dont boot". you can but console output there, please. [17:09] jjohansen, ping [17:13] smoser: bug against what package ? "linux" ? [17:13] yeah [17:13] linux-virtual [17:13] fails for both i386 and amd64 ? [17:14] hm, no time left to test /that/ [17:18] smoser: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/494611 [17:18] Launchpad bug 494611 in linux "UEC Lucid 20091209 image fails to boot on UEC" [Undecided,New] === luis__lopez is now known as luis_lopez [17:19] smoser: sorry I don't have time for more complete tests, just posted what I have [17:19] ttx, thanks. its good enough. === _Grim76_ is now known as Grim76__ [17:39] hi, which dns software is reliable and recommended for production use: bind, powerdns, mydns, djbdns, to name just a few.. [17:42] * ScottK likes unbound === nxvl_ is now known as nxvl [17:51] bind [17:51] I use bind. [18:53] how can i set the owner of file transferred with samba? [18:53] force something [18:54] in which file? sry but i haven't used samba [18:55] alex88: the Samba config file [18:55] mneptok: there are the samba shares there? and i force with "force create mode = 0770 [18:56] ? [18:56] alex88: unsure. i'm not a Samba user. but i know permissions are forced via the config file. i'm sure there are many examples on the web. [18:57] searching for them [18:58] force create user I think [18:58] hello guys, I need a compressed, incremental, and windows-aware backup solution for setting up an enterprise backup server, I'm taking a look at amanda, after giving up with bacula because of it's complexety, do you think I'm in a good path? If I am, can you point me to some updated documention about setting this up with 8.04.3?? [18:58] alex88: samba has unix extensions enabled by default, so it should work out of the box, given the same UIDs on both sides [18:59] without identical UIDs, there's no way it'll work [18:59] ok, thank you all.. [19:08] anyone? [19:08] hello guys, I need a compressed, incremental, and windows-aware backup solution for setting up an enterprise backup server, I'm taking a look at amanda, after giving up with bacula because of it's complexety, do you think I'm in a good path? If I am, can you point me to some updated documention about setting this up with 8.04.3?? [19:09] blackxored: i've also tried bacula and i can agree that's complex.. [19:09] alex88, extremely to my goals [19:11] i'm now using webmin ftp backup..but it's not incremental [19:11] alex88, you're using something for personal back-ends I assume [19:12] I need something enteprise-grade, centralized, incremental, compressed, windows smb/ backups and the like [19:12] so I'm now installing amanda [19:13] good luck so.. btw yes, personal, my small vps.. [19:14] blackxored: I'd rather take a look at opensolaris, the later -dev releases with dedup [19:14] linux can't do that stuff [19:15] RoyK, hheheh really, don't make me laugh [19:15] amanda does all that [19:15] bacula does taht [19:15] does that [19:15] realtime deduplication and compression on disk? [19:15] and in the end time [19:15] solaris = unix [19:15] :P [19:15] all the while open source and very fast and very secure? [19:15] is not something martian [19:16] but block level dedup is [19:16] RoyK, don't market solaris here, I was just asking a question [19:16] opensolaris works with native cifs sharing and ACLs and so on [19:16] RoyK, be happy to heard that I'd prefer that to windows [19:16] RoyK, linux too [19:16] and cifs/smb without samba, that is [19:16] in-kernel cifs server [19:16] wait what? [19:16] opensolaris rocks, even if you don't like it [19:17] arj: what what? [19:17] in-kernel cifs? [19:17] but this isn't #opensolaris..xD [19:17] arj: yeah, with full ACL support [19:17] nfs4 compatible [19:17] alex88, +1 [19:18] RoyK, see: [19:18] RoyK, don't market solaris here, I was just asking a question [19:18] alex88: I know, but blackxored asked for stuff not in linux, so I just suggested something else [19:18]
