osmosis_kirkland: works for me. ive been using kvm in production on ubuntu since hardy was released. Im currently running hardy with the latest kvm backports. Will be rebuilding my server farm with lucid later this year. But im doing a lot more work to improve my setup now, mostly through python scripting and stats tracking in mysql.00:02
kirklandosmosis_: cool; it would be great if you could get some test cycles and give some feedback on lucid's qemu-kvm-0.12.2 package00:02
osmosis_kirkland: might be able to do that. would be easier if recursive VMX cpu extension support in guests was available.00:05
osmosis_nested00:06
osmosis_Avi's blog says it might be available sometime this year.00:08
kirklandosmosis_: for intel, yeah, it's in the works00:13
kirklandosmosis_: works pretty well on amd for me00:13
sorenNested VMX will be awesome.00:14
sorenWhoever manages to implements it deservers fortune and glory.00:15
* soren types quite poorly right now00:15
osmosis_soren, an IBM team is on it00:16
sorenosmosis_: Oh, ok. I would have expected Intel to do it. Seems fitting that they'd do it themselves. It's their fault it's so complicated to do :)00:17

twbOh, the x86-64 extension to for hardware virtualization.00:55
twbHow would "nested vmx" work?  It doesn't make sense to me.00:57
sorentwb: You would be able to run kvm inside a kvm.01:06

eric_1982I was wondering if some one could help point me in the right direction. I have not messed with managing Linux computers in a corporate environment. I am however, very familiar with windows administration tools such as WSUS, Group Policy, Active Dir..etc. Are there similar tools available to help manage several Linux computers, basically tools used to help administrate a linux enviroment? I would like to be able to define what updates01:09
eric_1982  can be pushed out, lock down specific things, example apply a business background, map network drives..etc. Can any one supply me some names of some of these tools ect. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!01:09
smosereric_1982, https://landscape.canonical.com/ is one.01:21
osmosis_https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html   is incomplete. If a user follows the instructions, it wont work.01:44
nijabakirkland: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SquidDebProxy01:53
twbosmosis_: file a bug against the server guide package01:57
twberic_1982: the term you want to search for is probably "change management".  Free implementations include puppet, chef and cfengine.  Landscape is canonical's solution, but it's server side is proprietary.01:58
eric_1982Has any one used https://landscape.canonical.com/ ?01:59
eric_1982Any thoughts on it01:59
eric_1982It looks like it gives you heads up on updates02:00
twbPuppet (or whatever) is useful if you have hundreds of workstations or dozens of servers, but if you only have a small office network it is NOT worth the hassle of setting it up and babysitting it.02:00
eric_1982It doesn't appear to allow me to manage users and setting though02:00
twbWhere "small office" means one serevr and a dozen workstations.02:00
twberic_1982: for managing user accounts, you want OpenLDAP.  There's no useful, portable graphical UI for it.02:02
eric_1982I will need to look into Puppet. Looks promising02:02

Roxyhart0hi, i am trying to follow the how to install openldap. After configure tha data base and start SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started14:04
Roxyhart0i got the error: ldap_add: Insufficient access (50). any diea which could be the problem, i did exclatly that said the how to http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html14:04
sommerRoxyhart0: are you using sudo?14:06
Roxyhart0yes14:07
Roxyhart0and also is when i do this kind of command using "EXTERNAL" i dont undertand what it means, i something with SASL14:09
Roxyhart0when i do this command i get the error: No such object (32)14:11
sommerRoxyhart0: what's the exact command you are using?14:12
Roxyhart0yes14:12
Roxyhart0sorry is this command: ldapsearch -LLL -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b cn=config dn14:13
sommerRoxyhart0: what happens if you add a sudo in front of the ldapsearch?14:15
Roxyhart0im working as root14:15
sommerwhich release are you on?14:17
Roxyhart09.1014:17
sommerRoxyhart0: which step of the guide are you on?14:20
sommerRoxyhart0: I'd also recomment using sudo instead of running as root, but either way :)14:20
Roxyhart0it is : Further Configuration14:21
sommerRoxyhart0: works for me... can you try using sudo with a non-root user?  just as a test14:25
Roxyhart0ok14:26
Roxyhart0same error14:28
Roxyhart0maybe are the acl? or maybe i need to start slapd wih ldapii?14:28
sommeryou don't have it running with ldapi?  ps -ef | grep slap should show the slapd startup command14:29
sommerif it doesn't have ldapi you can add it in /etc/default/slapd14:29
Roxyhart0it shows me /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldap14:31
sommerya, take a look at /etc/default/slapd14:33
sommerjust add ldapi:/// to the SLAPD_SERVICES line... then the command should work14:33
=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
Roxyhart0it is already there SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap:/// ldapi:///"14:34
Roxyhart0do you know what means EXTERNAL and when I use LDAPI for ldapsearch,ldapadd or ldapmodify?14:38
sommerRoxyhart0: the EXTERNAL tells the ldap command to use the system authentication14:40
sommerthis is the entry I believe: olcAuthzRegexp: {0}gidNumber=[[:digit:]]+\+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external ,cn=auth cn=localroot,cn=config14:41
sommerRoxyhart0: if you don't have any data in the directory, and I assume you don't, you might try starting over with sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd... then retry the commands14:42
Roxyhart0doesn't work dpkg-reconfigure :S14:42
Roxyhart0where i need to write this line?14:43
Roxyhart0i need to add when i am creating the database ?14:43
Roxyhart0on db.ldif file?14:43
sommerI'm not sure what you mean?14:50
Roxyhart0to add this line just you told me14:50
sommersudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd should remove all the old configurations allowing you to start over... not sure what you have in db.ldif14:51
Roxyhart0i just follow the how to, in there you do the first configuration on a ldif file14:52
Roxyhart0my question is if i add this line shold work14:52
Roxyhart0my question how I add that line?15:03
sommer"sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd" is a command not a line to add to an ldif file15:05
Roxyhart0i mean the line avobe15:06
Roxyhart0olcAuthzRegexp: {0}gidNumber=[[:digit:]]+\+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external ,cn=auth cn=localroot,cn=config15:06
sommerdid the schema files load without error?  those are the first command?15:06
Roxyhart0yes15:06
sommersorry, you don't need to add that line it's already in the config... I was just trying to explain the EXTERNAL auth method15:06
Roxyhart0but i did it before15:07
sommerdid what before?15:07
Roxyhart0and still doesn't work15:07
sommerwhat's the command and error again?  I think I'm confused15:08
Roxyhart0well i need to configurate again15:09
Roxyhart0because i just did dpkg-reconfigure15:09
Roxyhart0hahah15:09
sommerah, well maybe it'll work better :-)... you might try as non-root just so the commands line up exactly15:10

ShumpHi, folks. Forgive the repetition, but alot of folks have come and gone since I asked my question. Hoping someone knows. In an Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud environment, must all physical servers running as part of the cloud have virtualization technology, such as Intel VT or AMD-V, or can you have servers as part of your cloud without that?21:23
_rubenShump: no personal experience with it .. but i assume it's based on kvm, which in turns depends on intel vt / amd-v21:24
Elad___ruben: So how do I go about creating keys for each user?21:24
Elad__I added the user, and I tried "su new_user_name ssh-keygen -t dsa" and a couple other variations but get invalid options21:25
_rubenElad__: have each user create their own keypair, get them to send the pub key to you, so you can upload it to each user's homedir (.ssh/authorized_keys2)21:25
Shump_ruben: Yes, it mentions that it's based on KVM. So that would mean, then, that any hardware it was running with would need either Intel VT or AMD-V?21:26
Elad__is there a way I can create the keys for them?21:26
Elad__ah, I think I get it - I would create the public/private keys, stick the key.pub in their .ssh/authorized_keys2/ directory and then send them the private key?21:27
_rubenShump: basically yes .. there's also kvm-qemu i think, but qemu gives *very* poor performance21:27
_rubenElad__: you can, but i prefer to do it the other way around .. then again, they can alter their passphrase anyway21:28
Elad___ruben: What if the new user doesn't have a .ssh directory? Can I just create it and put the public key there? Or is there a better way to do it?21:28
_rubenElad__: the .ssh dir doesnt exist by default indeed, its safe to create it21:29
Elad___ruben: thanks for your help, I appreciate it21:29
_rubenand the authorized_keys2 filename is "old" i think, the manpage of ssh/sshd will probably tell you which filename one should use these days21:29
Shump_ruben: Thanks so much!21:29
Elad__The file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys lists the public keys that are permitted21:30
Elad__     for logging in.21:30
Elad__right on the man page. Thanks for the heads up21:31
