[00:31] <bc> does anyone happen to know the file number limit for a directory?
[00:32] <qman__> that depends on your filesystem
[00:33] <bc> ext3, which apparently has a directory number limit of 31998, but does that also go for files?
[00:34] <qman__> the number of files varies based on the options you used when you created it
[00:34] <bc> I'm up to 637 and counting, but the end result will be over 40 thousand files unless it borks.
[00:34] <qman__> "The maximum number of inodes (and hence the maximum number of files and directories) is set when the file system is created. If V is the volume size in bytes, then the default number of inodes is given by V/213 (or the number of blocks, whichever is less), and the minimum by V/223. The default was deemed sufficient for most applications. The max number of subdirectories in one directory is fixed to 32000."
[00:34] <bc> qman__: it would have been what ever the defaults are.
[00:34] <bc> qman__: ah, I see
[00:35] <qman__> you can check how many inodes are used/free with df -i
[00:36] <bc> qman__: apparently I've only used 2% on a 320 GB disk.
[00:36] <bc> (2% inodes, that is)
[00:46] <bc> qman__: thank you
[00:47] <qman__> no problem
[01:19] <twb> Wasn't GNU supposed to AVOID arbitrary limits in its code?
[01:19] <twb> Oh right, Linus and his mates aren't GNU
[01:46]  * bc found out that waiting for 40 thousand sequential http requests isn't very amusing.
[02:57] <cef> got a kvm guest (karmic for guest and host) that keeps saying 'EXT3-fs warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended.' but I can't seem to get it to run on boot. Touching /forcefsck (as root) and then rebooting doesn't seem to alter that message, but /forcefsck does disappear after the next boot. Any ideas?
[02:59] <cef> dumpe2fs -h also shows that the fs was last checked ages ago, and not when I last used /forcefsck
[03:01] <Roxyhart0> hi guy i am having this problem. http://www.mail-archive.com/samba@lists.samba.org/msg102804.html how i can upgrade my samba version (reliable) fro my ubuntu 9.10?
[03:01] <qman__> is there any way to reset a stuck tty? my tty2 locked up, I killed off the processes that were running on it, and tried 'sudo stop tty2; sudo start tty2' but it's still stuck
[03:08] <cef> qman__: try 'sudo initctl stop tty2 ; sudo initctl start tty2'
[03:08] <qman__> still stuck
[03:08] <cef> but yeah, stop and start should  do the same
[03:08] <qman__> it spawned new processes and everything
[03:08] <qman__> but the screen is stuck
[03:09] <cef> scroll lock? Ctrl-Q?
[03:09] <qman__> hey, I think that's working
[03:10] <qman__> thanks
[03:10] <cef> np
[03:10] <cef> good ol' flow control
[03:10] <qman__> was using irssi, hit spell check, and it hard locked
[03:11] <qman__> but that got the screen back, never even noticed scroll lock turned on
[03:11] <cef> what's the key spell check?
[03:11] <qman__> alt+s
[03:11] <cef> haha, hit ctrl+S insteda methinks
[03:11] <cef> instead even
[03:12] <qman__> possibly, the keyboard is a bit wonky
[03:12] <cef> yeah.. easy done
[03:12] <qman__> one time I sort of mashed the right alt/win/context keys
[03:12] <qman__> and it turned scroll lock on
[03:15] <twb> qman__: ^Q or ^A^Q to turn it off
[03:15] <twb> And stty -xoff to disable it forever in that shell
[03:16] <qman__> thanks
[03:16] <qman__> is that per bash, or per tty, because I'm using screen
[03:19] <cef> so any ideas on forcing an fsck on a karmic server with no console access?
[03:21] <qman__> which filesystem is it? if it's non-root, you could try unmounting it and running fsck manually
[03:25] <cef> root unfortunately
[03:25] <cef> I see hints on the net to 'sudo touch /forcefsck' then reboot, but no luck
[03:27] <twb> cef: in fstab you must have fsck/dump options that aren't 0
[03:50] <SJrX> I  just took a hardrive out of a P3-733 with Ubuntu 8.04, and put it into an AMD 2800+. I have no ethernet now. lspci shows a "00:12.0 VIA Technologies, Inc VT6012 [Rhine-II] (rev 74)" card, and I've loaded via-rhine module, however still no eth0 device. Ubuntu 9.10 was on this machine previously
[03:51] <qman__> SJrX, it's probably eth1
[03:51] <SJrX> eth3 oddly enough
[03:51] <SJrX> any idea why?
[03:52] <qman__> if you want it to be eth0, wipe the old interface out of /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[03:52] <qman__> and change the new one to eth0
[03:52] <SJrX> Ad
[03:52] <SJrX> Ah
[03:52] <qman__> it dynamically assigns them, then keeps them in that file
[03:52] <qman__> so that when you remove and re-insert a device, it keeps the same name
[04:21] <SJrX> SSH doesn't respond
[04:21] <SJrX> For some reason when I connect to the machine, I never get a login prompt. Ubuntu 8.10. It works locally but from two other machines, it's just hanging. The port is open.
[04:26] <thebwt> SJrX: can it ssh out?
[04:27] <SJrX> Yeah
[04:27] <SJrX> weird it was an out of memory problem
[04:27] <SJrX> apparently something went wrong with the raid array
[04:28] <thebwt> SJrX: indeed! sounds messy.
[04:29] <SJrX> "md: array md0 already has disks!" is what the messages said
[04:29] <SJrX> but it printed about 1000 times a second in messages
[04:29] <twb> SJrX: examine /proc/mdstat
[04:30] <SJrX> It looks good afaik, not sure how to read that, active raid1
[04:30] <twb> SJrX: pastebin it, then
[04:30] <SJrX> mdadm --detail /dev/md0, says the State: is clean.
[04:31] <SJrX> Events: 0.40166
[04:41] <SJrX> I also get "md: could not bd_claim sdc1" on boot
[06:01] <Roxyhart0> hi guys, i am upgrading a file server and sharing files for users...but when i move the data i am not sure why some users can see their thata and some of them doesn't im not getting any error in the log event? any idea?
[06:03] <Roxyhart0> again. hi guys, i am migrating a file server and sharing files for users...but some users can see their thata and some of them don't. I just check the logs and im not getting nothing. any idea? i have ubuntu 9.10 and samba 3.4.0
[06:03] <Roxyhart0> thata ->data
[06:07] <MTecknology> Roxyhart0: I assume you checked permissions with ls -la
[06:21] <Roxyhart0> yes i did
[06:21] <Roxyhart0> is the same permisions
[06:22] <Roxyhart0> group:users
[06:40] <cef> twb: argh!!!! damn fstab.. thanks
[06:42] <cef> any idea why one particular kvm guest I have 1) always starts first 2) crashes when it is set to autostart and starts at boot, but works fine if manually started from virsh?
[06:44] <cef> if I can figure out why it starts first, i can narrow the issue down to the actual vm, or just cos it starts first
[06:44] <cef> (and it's not alpha-sorted or date-sorted)
[07:06] <twb> It's unlikely, but whatever is looking at "directory full of VM definitions" might be listing the directory's inode without applying any sorting at all
[07:06] <twb> cf. ls -U
[07:15] <cef> twb: indeed that makes sense
[07:16] <cef> and yup, that indeed seems to be the case.. now to change that around a bit...
[07:17] <twb> Stupid libvirt
[07:17] <twb> You should file a bug against it for doing things that way
[07:18] <cef> yeah
[07:19] <cef> oh you gotta be kidding me
[07:19] <cef> every time I create a new copy of the machine, it ends up at the top of ls -U
[07:22] <cef> well, time to go home
[07:22] <cef> will hit it (or mebbe the dev) with a hammer tomorrow
[07:23] <cef> twb: ta for the help btw
[07:27] <SeR_X> hello someone who can help me with ubuntu korganizer?
[07:32] <Roxyhart08> i got another question...I got a samba server and I configurated users folders . They can see some data in their folder and some dont. For example, I just copy data from the server to each user folder they can't see this new data, just the old one and the permisions are the same "users". i mean it does not refresh? any idea?
[08:06] <Roxyhart08> hi somebody know what i need to do to refresh it, i dont know why the users can not see the info on the folder
[08:07] <Roxyhart08> somebody has trying to share folder in a samba server?
[08:09] <Error404NotFound> i am following http://shapeshed.com/journal/chroot_sftp_users_on_ubuntu_intrepid/ to setup a sftp server, and i get "Bad condition X11Forwarding"
[08:10] <thebwt> Error404NotFound: at which part?
[08:10] <Error404NotFound> thebwt, the line which defined "Match group sftp X11Forwarding no ......"
[08:12] <thebwt> Error404NotFound: haveed leaving out "X11Forwarding no"
[08:12] <thebwt> have you tried*
[08:12] <Error404NotFound> yup, then it says same error on Chroot....
[08:13] <thebwt> hmm, then double check "Match group sftp"
[08:13] <thebwt> sounds like it's trying to read X11Forwarding as a condtion
[08:13] <thebwt> or whatever comes in it's place
[08:21] <Error404NotFound> i get Directive 'ChrootDirectory' is not allowed within a Match block now that i did it separately, e.g. first i defined Subsystem and then a Match group sftp
[08:30] <Error404NotFound> damn, ssh version < 4.8
[08:41] <Roxyhart08> hi some question i am migrating to new PDC, Id recover the ldap database and the name of the Domain is the same. Do i need to joing again the windows client to the domain?
[09:12] <fhermeni> hy
[09:15] <fhermeni> I have an issue with preseed. Everything is automatic except netcfg: after getting all the stuff with DHCP, it still asking for a confirmation of the hostname
[09:16] <fhermeni> documentation say that using "d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname" should prevent that question, but not seems right for my installation
[10:00] <maxagaz_> is there a way to list the last removed packages ?
[10:00] <maxagaz_> what package allows to mount usb devices automatically ?
[10:04] <twb> maxagaz_: gnome
[10:05] <maxagaz_> twb, no, I have it
[10:05] <maxagaz_> twb, their must be some package
[10:06] <twb> NFI
[10:06] <twb> udev, if you mean a specific serial ID
[10:07] <maxagaz_> udev is properly installed
[10:08] <maxagaz_> If I had a list of the 20 last removed/installed packages, I guess it would help me to understanf
[10:08] <maxagaz_> d
[10:10] <twb> maxagaz_: that's /var/log/dpkg
[10:14] <maxagaz_> twb, thanks
[10:18] <Roxyhart08> hi by error I delete my logs folder, where is going the openldap log?
[10:18] <Roxyhart08> how i can increment the log level ?
[11:52] <acalvo> hi
[11:52] <acalvo> is there any dhcp monitoring tool?
[11:52] <acalvo> dhcp server, I meant
[11:54] <screen-x> acalvo: you could try monitoring with dhcping
[11:55] <acalvo> it seems dhcping is an audit tool
[11:56] <acalvo> I find hard to manage the dhcp pool from command line
[11:58] <screen-x> acalvo: I dont know of a gui for that. I define pools in dhcpd config then leave it. Do you  need to modify it regularly?
[11:58] <acalvo> I'd like to trace if there is any error related to DHCP
[11:58] <acalvo> we have several APs which relay on a peer dhcp pool
[11:58] <acalvo> and some users have reported random disconnections
[11:59] <sherr> acalvo: there many be verbose/debug flags in the server config. Monitor DHCP in the system logs.
[11:59] <acalvo> btw, having a pool lifetime greater than 4h is not a good idea, since the network, which is a /22, gets full pretty quickly
[12:00] <acalvo> sherr: yes, but we don't see any error (just some DNS updates denied, but DHCP is looking good)
[12:01] <screen-x> acalvo: sounds like you just stated your problem. Can you use a larger network and NAT?
[12:02] <acalvo> well, we've here around 250 unique users... getting 1022 MACs seems pretty unbelievable
[12:04] <screen-x> so the /22 gets full, even though you only have 250 users?
[12:05] <acalvo> yes
[12:05] <acalvo> must say we're an university, so the wireless is not protected
[12:05] <acalvo> but the range does not reach outside the building
[12:06] <acalvo> even if some not-student users connect to the wireless network, seems pretty odd that the /22 gets full
[12:07] <screen-x> acalvo: so are you getting multiple IPs assigned to a single MAC with overlapping times?
[12:07] <acalvo> that should not occur, since the lifetime of a DHCP address is 2h
[12:08] <acalvo> but some users, while having a good signal rate, suffer some disconnection problems
[12:11] <screen-x> you say that multiple leases to one MAC should not occur, but how else are you filling that /22?
[12:46] <acalvo> screen-x: is what I don't get...
[12:51] <screen-x> acalvo: how many dhcp servers do you have?
[12:52] <acalvo> I've a dhcp peer pool with 2 dhcp servers
[12:52] <acalvo> managing 3 subnets
[12:52] <zul> morning
[12:55] <screen-x> acalvo: have you tried comparing dhcpd.leases from both servers?
[13:04] <acalvo> screen-x: mm no
[13:40] <Sorell> I was just checking my log files.... Does anyone else get IPs from china and the chech republic trying to break into there server?
[13:41] <Sorell> their*
[13:48] <Jeeves_> Sorell: That's not unusual
[13:48] <Sorell> just checking, the server has been up for like 3 days
[13:48] <Sorell> and it's already banned 42 IPs
[13:48] <Sorell> thought that was a little werid.
[13:50] <jiboumans> sorell: no, that's not a little weird :)
[13:51] <Sorell> k
[13:52] <Sorell> ty guys
[13:54] <ttx> Sorell: http://isc.sans.org/survivaltime.html
[13:59] <jiboumans> morning jkakar
[14:00] <jiboumans> it's tuesday, this must be atlanta

[14:28] <cvincenzo> Hi all :)
[14:28] <cvincenzo> can someone tell me whether packages of ubuntu for NAT and firewall there, so does the server (ubuntu) as a firewall and router?
[14:31] <fhermeni> hy, I have trouble with preseed and the network configuration
[14:32] <fhermeni> when it finished getting its stuff with dhcp, it still ask for the hostname while it knows it
[14:32] <hyperlinx> is there any prouser who can help me ?
[14:39] <hyperlinx> hello any body there ??
[14:40] <KurtKraut> hyperlinx, you'll be more lucky if you ask right away what you want instead of asking if someone is active here.
[14:40] <KurtKraut> *luckier
[14:48] <zul> ttx: i have php 5.3 packaged in a ppa Im going to send out an email to ubuntu-devel and -server to ask people to test and report back bugs
[14:48] <ttx> zul: ok
[14:49] <KurtKraut> hyperlinx, you need to make your help request here and in english.
[14:57] <smoser> good morning all.
[15:02] <zul> hey smoser
[15:07] <acalvo> Sorell: how did you block IPs? hardware firewall?
[15:11] <Sorell> fail2ban auto blocks IPs
[15:11] <Sorell> through software
[15:11] <Sorell> if someone tries to login X times with wrong pass
[15:12] <acalvo> never heard of that, thanks!
[15:14] <Sorell> np :)
[15:17] <Sorell> acalvo you may also want to install clam if you haven't already
[15:18] <acalvo> Sorell: that's one of my ToDo, install ClamAV, spamassasin and squidguard
[15:18] <Sorell> :)
[15:18] <acalvo> thanks you so much!
[15:18] <Sorell> Good luck
[15:25] <Jeeves_> grrr
[15:26] <Jeeves_> debhelper--
[15:31] <acalvo> Sorell: fail2ban is pretty awesome, support a lot of protocols
[15:55] <smoser> mathiaz_, ping
[15:56] <mathiaz_> smoser: !
[15:56] <mathiaz_> smoser: how is you swap day going?
[15:56] <smoser> hey, good.
[15:56] <smoser> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/521121/comments/1
[15:56] <smoser> mathiaz_, it got swapped :)
[15:56] <smoser> to friday or next monday. so i could get these packaging done
[15:56] <smoser> mathiaz_, in above url, you said
[15:56] <smoser> * The source package should be name txaws since this is the upstream name. The binary package should be name python-txaws as required by the Debian python policy.
[15:57] <smoser> should that be the case with my ruby packages also (right-aws and right-http-connection)
[15:58] <mathiaz> smoser: hm - that would be a good idea as well
[15:58] <mathiaz> smoser: especially if the upstream tarball follows the same convention
[15:58] <smoser> upstream tarballs are named right_aws and right_http_connection respectively
[15:59] <mathiaz> smoser: ok - so you could name the source package right-aws
[15:59] <smoser> so those changes and others to address your comments are available now in the branches linked from
[15:59] <smoser> bug 521002
[15:59] <smoser> and bug 521121
[16:00] <smoser> and both are lintian clean under lucid now
[16:00] <smoser> i'll get to work on the other 2 packages on that list.
[16:01] <smoser> mathiaz, ^
[16:01] <Peanut> Hi - when installing Karmic via PXE, how can you prevent it asking the country/region questions, as it hasn't loaded 'preseed.cfg' yet?
[16:01] <mathiaz> smoser: great - I'll have a look at them later
[16:02] <mathiaz> smoser: I'm almost done with the puppet integration in cloud-init
[16:02] <mathiaz> smoser: I've added a hook (config-puppet) to CloudConfig.py
[16:02] <smoser> ok. i'll read that when you're ready.
[16:04] <smoser> mathiaz, shoudl theree be only one entry in debian/changelog for ruby packages ?
[16:04] <smoser> i'm guessing yes. so i'll change that.
[16:04] <mathiaz> smoser: yes - since it's a brand new package
[16:04] <mathiaz> smoser: for the ubuntu archive
[16:05] <smoser> k
[16:05] <mathiaz> smoser: we don't care about the previous life of the package
[16:05] <mathiaz> smoser: it's a new born in the Ubuntu archive
[16:05] <mathiaz> smoser: there isn't any concept of reincarnation in the Ubuntu archive
[16:10] <aubre> hey guys, I updated my UEC front-end and nodes, and now when I try to run an instance, it goes from pending to terminating and once again I am getting the "in MANAGED-NOVLAN mode, priv interface 'eth1' must be a bridge, tunneling disabled"
[16:10] <aubre> I thought this problem had been fixed already

[16:14] <Pupeno> Hello.
[16:14] <Pupeno> Any ideas how to make automatic upgrades work?
[16:15] <ttx> smoser: race is on for the PHP package.
[16:15] <smoser> ttx, i will do it. thanks.
[16:15] <smoser> for the perl.
[16:15] <ttx> smoser: i did it already
[16:15] <ttx> it's uploaded
[16:15] <smoser> oh. yeah. i meant, i will do the php.
[16:15] <ttx> smoser: ok :)
[16:16] <ttx> smoser: was wondering about bug 504883 status
[16:16] <ttx> smoser: How critical is it to boothooks delivery ? If it is indeed necessary to fix it, I should bump it to alpha3 milestone
[16:16] <smoser> well, i pinged Keybuk on that friday.  the response was "bugs are fixed after feature freeze"
[16:16] <jdstrand> soren: hi! is there a wiki page describing how to ues kvm autotest in the way that you demo'd?
[16:17] <smoser> i suggested that "sooner rather than later" on this would be nice.
[16:17] <ttx> smoser: how does it impact the feature, the bug is not very clear
[16:17] <ttx> ?
[16:17] <smoser> ttx, it doesn't prevent anything, just makes the boothooks run later (and less determinably than i would have liked)
[16:18] <smoser> less determinably : (other upstart jobs could be running)
[16:18] <ttx> smoser: hhrm. So, when the bug is fixed, you can move to earlier in the boot process ?
[16:18] <smoser> i would like for it to be fixed "sooner rather htan later" because it might have some fallout when we move to running that early.
[16:18] <ttx> I'll target it for alpha3
[16:19] <smoser> but, yes. thats what steve has found.
[16:19] <smoser> you want a comment in there ?
[16:19] <ttx> I'll do it
[16:24] <smoser> ttx, http://paste.ubuntu.com/377702/
[16:24] <smoser> i'll post that in the bug unless you think its not clear
[16:24] <ttx> aubre: not sure that error message is the cause to your instance run issues
[16:25] <ttx> smoser: works from me
[16:25] <ttx> for

[16:25] <aubre> ttx: agreed. I tried using the UEC web interface to get a 32-bit image and tried to start it - no joy
[16:26] <aubre> ttx: everything was working fine until I upgraded to the latest packages
[16:26] <ttx> aubre: define "latest" ? lucid ?
[16:26] <aubre> ttx: karmic - I haven't made the jump yet
[16:27] <ttx> aubre: so latest = ?
[16:27] <aubre> ttx: sec
[16:28] <aubre> ttx: what's the command to see what version you have installed? I'm having a senior moment
[16:29] <aubre> ttx: it's the latest from "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[16:29] <aubre> ttx: I'm wondering if it has to do with this https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eucalyptus/+bug/503180

[16:30] <aubre> ttx: 1.6~bzr931-0ubuntu7.4
[16:32] <aubre> ttx: I can rebuild using the latest lucid isos if you think that might correct the problem

[16:43] <aubre> ttx: an ID is being assigned , but no instance gets to a running state
[16:43] <aubre> ttx: the instances I am using are from the store
[16:44] <ttx> aubre: could you pastebin your nc.log ?
[16:44] <aubre> ttx: I mean images
[16:44] <aubre> ttx: sure
[16:44] <ttx> aubre: I'm more interested in error messages when ie starts up (rather than error messages when it terminates)
[16:45] <aubre> tt: k
[16:45] <aubre> ttx: k
[16:50] <aubre> ttx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/377721/
[16:51] <ttx> aubre: now that's strange
[16:51] <ttx> aubre: look into cc.log
[16:51] <ttx> because the nc never gets contacted to run the instance :)
[16:54] <aubre> ttx: ok
[16:54] <ttx> (the strange thing being... it gets contacted to terminate them)
[16:55] <ttx> so from the NC perspective, everythign is alright
[16:55] <aubre> ttx: ok that makes sense
[16:58] <ttx> aubre: got to go now
[16:58] <ttx> aubre: if you find something fishy, file a bug :)
[16:59] <aubre> ttx: thanks for helping - will do
[17:23] <pmatulis> with quotas, is it possible to override a group quota (giving a user a different quota)?
[17:38] <zul> ttx: bug #522746
[18:03] <abeman> hi, I am having some issues setting up postfix behind a corporate proxy for wordpress
[18:04] <abeman> i think it might be also due to the dns not resolving the smtp relay
[18:04] <abeman> any suggestions?
[18:13] <smoser> mathiaz, you have any way you can give me accesss to your UEC that reproduces bug 520707
[18:17] <mathiaz> smoser: bug 522292
[18:39] <acalvo> I'm in a hurry: does anyone know why a dhcp server receive dhcpdiscover, sends an offer but does not receive a dhcpack?
[18:39] <acalvo> it seems to be a little random
[19:00] <mathiaz> smoser: working on my cloud-init-puppet upstart job
[19:00] <mathiaz> smoser: I'd like to have the puppet cloud config hook run *after* apt repositories have been setup
[19:00] <mathiaz> smoser: on which job should I depend on in the cloud-config-puppet job?
[19:01] <mathiaz> smoser: start on started cloud-apt-update-upgrade?
[19:01] <smoser> started ?
[19:01] <smoser> i think cloud-apt-update-upgrade is right , but dont know about started
[19:01] <smoser> would that possibly let you run before that job is finished ?
[19:03] <pgoetz> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/ doesn't appear to contain a .iso ....
[19:05] <smoser> kirkland, ping
[19:10] <tonyyarusso> I'm not really sure if this is a samba issue or an OpenOffice issue, but hopefully someone can help...  I have a Samba share set up, with create mask and directory mask of 0775, file permissions with g+w, yet whenever a user tries to open project2.odp, they get the message "This document is locked for editing by Unknown User".  What's wrong?
[19:11] <tonyyarusso> (It works fine with an SFTP mount.)
[19:14] <pgoetz> @tony Did you try opening a text file in the same folder using gedit?  If it's a samba issue, it should show up here, too.
[19:14] <smoser> mathiaz, from started(7),
[19:14] <smoser> A task that must be run after another task or service has been  started might use:
[19:14] <smoser> start on started postgresql
[19:15] <smoser> hm... first read of that indicated to me more clearly that  'another task' would have already finished. i dont know though.
[19:16] <tonyyarusso> pgoetz: Yeah, it seems to only be OpenOffice and MS Office files that are affected.
[19:16] <tonyyarusso> but only when accessed via samba.
[19:16] <pgoetz> what version of samba/ubuntu server/oofice?
[19:17] <mathiaz> smoser: right - I think it's the right definition
[19:17] <mathiaz> smoser: and cloud-apt-update-upgrade will update the apt sources?
[19:18] <smoser> yes
[19:18] <tonyyarusso> pgoetz: 3.4.0-3ubuntu5.4, 9.10, 3.2
[19:18] <mathiaz> smoser: great thanks
[19:18] <smoser> mathiaz, but will also have run apt-upgrade (if configured)
[19:18] <mathiaz> smoser: np
[19:19] <mathiaz> smoser: the use case here is to be able to configure another apt repostory
[19:19] <mathiaz> smoser: to pull in a new version of puppet if desired
[19:20] <pgoetz>  What about opening an openoffice doc using koffice?
[19:20] <tonyyarusso> pgoetz: I can give you access to the share if that would be helpful.
[19:21] <tonyyarusso> I suppose I could try installing koffice on something - I don't have it currently.
[19:22] <pgoetz> Should be easy to install (assuming you already have other KDE stuff) and might help narrow the problem down.
[19:23] <tonyyarusso> is there a read-only flag somewhere internal to the ODF format?
[19:24] <pgoetz> http://blogs.sun.com/oootnt/entry/read_only_writer_documents
[19:26] <tonyyarusso> pgoetz: nope, not that.
[19:27] <tonyyarusso> pgoetz: KPresenter appears to have opened it okay?
[19:28] <pgoetz> weird.  Sounds like it must be a problem with oo 3.2.
[19:32] <nandersson> Hi! Does someone have a link for a "best-practices HOWTO" for setting up your own APT Repository?
[19:33] <tonyyarusso> nandersson: are you looking to mirror existing ones or create your own for certain software?
[19:34] <nandersson> tonyyarusso, Create my own for certain software on my private server
[19:34] <tonyyarusso> nandersson: I'd try asking Seveas if he's online.
[19:35] <nandersson> tonyyarusso, Ok, thanks!  I'll look out for him then :)
[19:37] <tonyyarusso> nandersson: (not likely to be in here necessarily, use /whois)
[19:38] <nandersson> tonyyarusso, Ah, ok, Thanks!
[19:40] <pmatulis> lamont: do you know what postfix version enabled 'smtp_sasl_auth_cache_name' and a few other suchlike things?
[19:41] <lamont> not off the top of my head, no
[19:41] <pmatulis> lamont: i'm looking at the changelogs and i can't find anything.  man page just says "since 2.5"
[19:42] <lamont> then 2.5.0-1 :-D
[19:46] <pmatulis> lamont: hmm
[19:47] <lamont> well, I expect so anyway
[19:47] <pmatulis> lamont: ok, thx
[20:24] <clbr> i've got a strange problem while trying to set up KVM on a karmic server: for some reason I get an class A netmask and bcast-address instead of what I specified in network/interfaces, see https://textb.org/t/7ac34qqvrw/
[20:24] <clbr> someone has a hint?
[20:49] <lbrinkma> Is their any update on libmysqlclient?
[20:51] <jdstrand> jiboumans: fyi, I just filed bug #522845
[20:52] <jdstrand> jiboumans: soren updated libvirt to be compiled with libcap-ng for the lxc stuff
[20:52] <jdstrand> jiboumans: this has some side-effects for the qemu/kvm driver
[20:53] <jdstrand> jiboumans: as it turns out, the AppArmor security driver is preventing this problem-- however, if someone disables the AppArmor security driver and has disk files, etc owned by non-root, then there will be problems
[20:54] <jdstrand> jiboumans: I marked it as Triaged, but I'm uncomfortable making changes atm
[20:55] <jdstrand> jiboumans: mostly, I wanted you to be aware of the potential problems for any installs that disable the AppArmor security driver
[20:59] <jdstrand> jiboumans: I've heard that some eucalyptus deployments do this (though I have no idea why)
[21:29] <jdstrand> kirkland: hey, fyi on backscroll starting with '14:51 < jdstrand> jiboumans: fyi, I just filed bug #522845'
[21:30] <jdstrand> kirkland: can you also let ttx know in case I forget?
[21:30] <kirkland> jdstrand: let ttx know what exactly?
[21:30] <kirkland> jdstrand: that you filed the bug?
[21:30] <jdstrand> heh
[21:30] <jdstrand> kirkland: not that I filed it per se, but there is a potential problem, as reported in the bug :)
[21:30] <kirkland> jdstrand: okay
[21:31] <kirkland> jdstrand: i subscribed him to the bug
[21:31] <jdstrand> kirkland: I really don't know what is going on the lxc and don't know what kind of priority (if any) this will have for you guys
[21:31]  * jdstrand should have thought of that
[21:32] <jdstrand> kirkland: thanks
[21:32] <kirkland> jdstrand: np
[21:32] <genii> ompaul isn't helping much
[21:33]  * genii grumbles about wrong channels
[21:33] <jdstrand> kirkland: say, have you done much with kvm-autotest?
[21:33] <kirkland> jdstrand: sadly, no
[21:33] <kirkland> jdstrand: i'm familiar with it
[21:33] <jdstrand> kirkland: yeah, me either...
[21:33] <kirkland> jdstrand: i watch/follow the threads about it
[21:34] <kirkland> jdstrand: soren's presentation was interesting
[21:34] <jdstrand> kirkland: do you know if an iso is *required* to be used with it?
[21:34] <jdstrand> kirkland: it was indeed!
[21:34] <kirkland> jdstrand: i'm pretty sure it's not required
[21:34] <jdstrand> kirkland: cool, thanks
[21:34]  * jdstrand sees what he can do with it...
[22:30] <ebartilson> hello, I have a quick problem, I have a server computer at work, when I go to install ubuntu ( any iteration)  when i click install only a dialog box appears
[22:31] <ebartilson> I believe the computer is not letting the CD load to RAM
[22:32] <ebartilson> any help?
[23:07] <sherr> Click Install? Is this an "install" icon on the desktop - off a live CD?
[23:33] <usuario_> my usb wont mount any advices
[23:33] <usuario_> advice
[23:42] <Th0th> hello everyone
[23:45] <Th0th> I have a server that recently started freezing on me, first the mysql daemon mysteriously died one day, now the thing is freezing intermittently anywhere from 1.5 hours to 15 hours after boot, on the actual monitor hooked up to the server it usually says something about one of my deamon processes hanging (java, apache2, or mysql usually)
[23:46] <Th0th> any guesses to my problem?  I updated everything and no recent changes to my setup to precipitate this, all partitions have plenty of free space, so I'm thinking hardware like memory or cpu
[23:59] <twb> Th0th: did you check the logs?
[23:59] <twb> Th0th: did you check dmesg?
