| flaccid | hey erichammond, where was that canonical config file for enable/disable root login variable? | 03:37 |
|---|---|---|
| flaccid | ah /etc/ec2-init/ec2-config.cfg | 03:44 |
| flaccid | sudo sed -i 's/disable_root=1/disable_root=0/g' /etc/ec2-init/ec2-config.cfg | 03:49 |
| flaccid | so, ultimately sudo passwd root -u && sudo sed -i 's/disable_root=1/disable_root=0/g' /etc/ec2-init/ec2-config.cfg | 03:49 |
| flaccid | hmm do i have to restart a service so root can login now | 03:55 |
| flaccid | i must be missing a step | 04:04 |
| dblick | /leave | 07:05 |
| erichammond | flaccid: The disable_root option in /etc/ec2-init/ec2-config.cfg only takes effect on the first boot. | 10:05 |
| erichammond | I.e., it only matters what you set it to when you build the AMI. | 10:05 |
| erichammond | If you want to enable root ssh after starting the instance of Ubuntu on EC2, you can follow the instructions towards the end of http://alestic.com/2009/04/ubuntu-ec2-sudo-ssh-rsync | 10:10 |
| trifon | erichammond: Hello Eric. | 10:13 |
| trifon | how is the article going? | 10:13 |
| trifon | is it published? | 10:13 |
| erichammond | trifon: There's always one more thing to improve. | 10:14 |
| erichammond | I'm struggling against the impulse to turn it into a piece of software. | 10:14 |
| trifon | erichammond: :) you are right! | 10:14 |
| trifon | so yuo want to create automated script? | 10:15 |
| erichammond | eventually, but I also want to get the basic steps out to all the people who are clamoring for it. | 10:15 |

| develop | hi any idea what is the best way to connect ec2 workers to a external datawharehouse | 16:52 |
| develop | openvpn? | 16:52 |
| Elad | I am really new to ubuntu and ec2 and had a couple of questions on AMI's - If I create an AMI and register it with amazon, can anyone launch my AMI? | 17:23 |
| trifon | Elad: yes. this is the idea of published AMIs | 17:40 |
| Elad | is there a way that I can create a customized server with my specific setup (users, mail server, mysql server) and keep it secure so that someone else can't launch it and get access to my username's password type things? | 18:19 |
| trifon | Elad: yes. you just need to kepp your AMI private | 19:28 |
| Elad | trifon: thanks | 19:28 |
| Elad | I will look into how to do that | 19:28 |
| develop | hi how can i check disk size on a chrooted image | 20:11 |
| develop | df does not work | 20:11 |
| develop | i m building an ami using http://www.linuxconfig.org/Howto_CREATE_BUNDLE_UPLOAD_and_ACCESS_custom_Debian_AMI_using_ubuntu | 20:20 |
| develop | but mount /proc outputs | 20:20 |
| develop | mount: can't find /proc/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 20:21 |
| erichammond | Elad: Private is the default for a new AMI. Sharing it with others is an explicit choice. | 20:25 |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| develop | is it possible to add a s3 folder as a mount point of a ec2 ami | 22:49 |
| === erichammond1 is now known as erichammond | ||
| flaccid | develop: only if you can find a http fs | 22:58 |
| develop | ? | 22:58 |
| develop | or use s3 as a nfs | 22:59 |
| flaccid | s3 is http, so you can't mount it unless fuse does a http driver | 22:59 |
| flaccid | develop: you are after EBS. | 22:59 |
| develop | k | 22:59 |
| develop | can any ami connect to one ebs volume | 22:59 |
| flaccid | yes | 22:59 |
| flaccid | well in theory | 22:59 |
| develop | great thnks | 23:00 |
| flaccid | np | 23:00 |
| flaccid | i recommend alestic.com/erichammond's debian AMIs | 23:01 |
| develop | wy can't i ping bettween instances in the same security group | 23:47 |
