[00:51] can anybody help me with spamassassin + postfix?

[10:39] http://repos.srb2.org/HNI_0079.JPG my baby [10:42] you should use some extra light sources or blink :P [10:42] heh, it doesn't stay there, I just pulled it out there to do a decent wiring job...notice you can [10:42] 't see much wires in that photo =P [10:44] they're all tucked around the nooks and crannies of the rack for maximum airflow and that shit...most of the time right now that rack sits in a toilet with a fan in it, it has to be there for the moment because we are moving it downstairs in the building in a couple of months time but we have to have SOMEWHERE to put it where we can minimize the noise [10:44] the loudest thing on that rack by far is the radio transmitter (the big thing up the top) [10:44] drowns out the servers, hard drive enclose and the signal exciter (machine below the transmitter) noise quite easily [10:45] enclosure* [10:46] http://repos.srb2.org/HNI_00030.JPG =P [10:48] http://repos.srb2.org/HNI_00020.JPG the UPS (1500VA) is under max load with everything turned on [10:48] the servers (and the computers being served by it) all run Ubuntu [10:49] those two machines running Server Edition 9.10, one running general-purpose 9.10 and two running Ubuntu Studio [10:49] nice, any portable diesel generator at backyard? [10:51] no unfortunately, we don't have the money for anything flash like that as we're a non-profit organisation with most of our equipment being donated =P the radio-related stuff is brand new though [10:52] however if power does go out, the UPS should hold everything for about 30 minutes.... I don't need so much time as I live pretty much 30 seconds away =P [10:53] we ve got 4 UPS 1000(VA) for about 2-3 hours with no power plugged. But when light goes away for 4 hours -- its disaster. And we cannot put there some diesel generator cos of "close distance to houses" too much noice at 2 a.m. or so [10:54] I see... we're the same, the radio station (where that rack is located) is in the middle of a shopping center [10:55] you would think with car engines being so quiet they'd have quiet generators too [10:56] my friend has got 2.4 kV generator ... it sounds like a tank [10:56] You can put a muffler on a generator [10:56] I don't know why they don't come with them, though [10:57] Yeah... [10:57] It doesn't kill the power really, but it is a bit expensive considering the cost of the whole thing [10:57] And it takes a bit of space, and it gets _hot_ [10:58] 2.4kV is somewhere between 5-10hp =P or something [10:58] By the way, car engines aren't really so quiet. Open the hood and pull some of the plastic away. If it's got a chain driving the cams, it's loud [10:58] yes. it is cheaper to buy another 4 UPS. [10:58] but we work with wood and there is some rules with fire protection. And we should put them backyard or something like that/ [10:59] car engines with air cooling ? ) [10:59] heh [10:59] they sounds like tank too ) [10:59] well, they're quiet considering what little cars do to drain the noise outside [11:00] generators could have endless amounts of soundproofing and exhaust muffling on them without any problems [11:00] how to check on which /dev is assigned my webcam ? [11:01] lshw -short ? [11:01] can you help me to configure xdmcp on ubuntu-server? [11:04] mealstrom, no... [11:06] dmesg returns this : /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.1/usb4/4-1/4-1:1.0/input/input10 when i plug it [11:07] g dmesg | less [11:07] oh [11:09] look here dev/v4l/by-id [11:09] /dev/ [11:10] and check /dev/video0 [11:34] can anyone give me a iptable rule to limit the number of outgoing connection to particular ip destination [11:53] can I rotate a log file maunally? [12:22] can you help me to configure xdmcp on ubuntu-server? [12:32] sacarde: X -query , you're done. [12:32] I try this [12:32] but i dont view anythings [12:33] And what did the logs say? [12:33] I use ubuntuserver as server [12:33] I configure xdm [12:33] I view: netstat -an| grep xdm --------> port 177 is open [12:34] You configured Ubuntu as the X server, or the app server? [12:34] I install xorg on ubuntuserver [12:36] OK, so xdm and all your apps are installed on the app server, right? [12:36] yes [12:37] What is the output from X -query ? [12:37] If it doesn't work, you should get some kind of error output [12:38] X :1 vt8 -dpi 100 -query 192.168.1.3 [12:38] _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6 [12:38] _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/arch64:1 [12:38] _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6 [12:38] XDMCP warning: INET6 UDP socket creation failed [12:38] argh [12:38] ipv6 [12:39] I blacklisted ipv6 [12:39] there's nothing on vt8? [12:39] no [12:39] Why the fuck is it trying to use UDP over IPv6? [12:40] sacarde: what version of ubuntu? [12:40] sacarde: why did you install X on your poor server? [12:40] why not? [12:40] 8.4 [12:40] RoyK: well, firstly because he's giving it an IPv4 address [12:41] But I guess it might be because he's not -nolistening? [12:41] sacarde: so "lsmod | grep ipv6" is empty? [12:41] now, yes..... I try to load this module [12:42] hm... yeah [12:42] ah [12:42] wierd [12:43] in my client system..... I not have ipv6 [12:46] sacarde: you need to look at your log files, on both systems [12:46] X :1 -query localhost [12:46] does that work on app server? [12:46] sacarde: your basic technique is correct, so something must be misconfigured. [12:47] ivoks: you're assuming there's an X server on his app server :-) [12:47] i think ipv6 error are not errors [12:47] how can I remove ipv6 from ubuntuserver? [12:47] no? [12:47] I agree, I suspect the IPv6 stuff is spurious. [12:47] It usually is [12:47] ah [12:47] just notification that ipv6 isn't available [12:47] (I ran off on a bit of an anti-ipv6 tangent before.) [12:52] I try loading ipv6 in client too [12:52] but I havent errors.... bu I dont view anythings [12:53] but I read: [12:53] XDMCP fatal error: Session failed Session 179920002 failed for display 192.168.1.20:1: Cannot open display [12:54] sacarde: Xorg said that? [12:55] that's an real error [12:55] yes [12:55] sacarde: is xauth installed on both ends? [12:55] mmm [12:55] sacarde: if you have firewalls, do they have the appropriate gaping holes? [12:55] no firewall [12:56] I wonder if it's worth just forcing a (non-XDMCP) remote connection, to test it [12:56] X :2 & ssh 192.168.1.20 -f env DISPLAY=192.168.1.30:2 xlogo [12:57] Where 192.168.1.30 is your X terminal [13:01] bah [13:01] Clustered snapshots are not yet supported.

[13:08] sacarde: i.e. not via xdm, gdm, xinit, or anything else [13:08] no [13:08] Well, no wonder it fails, then. [13:08] in runlevel 2 I start xdm [13:08] All those wrapper things disable remote X for your protection [13:09] ? [13:09] I check hosts.allow and deny [13:09] This has nothing to do with tcpwrappers [13:10] no? [14:03] anyone know of any good guide for lighttpd+sqlite+php ? [15:30] Hello, I'm trying to learn / configure iptables as a router / gateway. So far I have the router set to accept ssh which is working fine and it allows traffic through from other machines on the network but I can't ping any outside address from the router itself [15:31] it's as if eth0 doesn't pass it's traffic through to the wan eth1 [16:08] Hello . . . [16:08] heath|OTG: Have you configured NAT? [16:08] I need your help please . . . :) [16:09] I'm new on Linux and I use an ubundu desktop [16:09] I like to setup a system for development with LAMP [16:09] This part is already set it up [16:09] What I like to do now is to setup BIND [16:10] I want to use domain name for each of my local domain names [16:10] Jeeves_: I had a bad DNS entry [16:10] Any person to help me please ? [16:10] heath|OTG: Ah, ok. [16:10] merianos: Just ask your question, and someone will help, or not [16:10] Ok then . . . [16:11] merianos: you don't need bind for that just configure your host file if it is just for one machine [16:11] How to setup BIND for custom domain names in my localhost only, not shared domain names in my network [16:11] Ah ok . . . [16:11] where is located the host file in Ubundu ? [16:12] /etc/hosts [16:12] and then how can I build Virtual Hosts for Apache ? [16:13] merianos: see /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default [16:13] you will need to create configs in /etc/apache2/sites-available. there should be a default [16:13] once configured you enable it with a2ensite siteconfigfile [16:14] slowly slowly :) [16:14] I'm new on linux . . . [16:15] first day that I'm using it :) [16:16] Ok now . . . [16:16] I found the hosts file . . . [16:16] In example if I will use the domain www.testdomain.ext [16:17] how will I setup a virtual host on apache ? [16:17] in hosts I will add the record 127.0.0.1 www.testdomain.ext [16:18] what is the setup on apache for test ? [16:18] i mean the testdomain virtual host [16:21] Have I to make a copy of default file in /etc/apache2/sites-available and then rename it to the domain name I like to use ? [16:21] in www.testdomain.ext ? [16:22] and then enable it by using a2ensite www.testdomain.ext ? [16:24] Any help please ? [16:25] Somebody to help me ? [16:28] None ? [16:28] merianos: that should work fine and remember to change the path to the web root [16:29] merianos: please understand that must of us in here are working as well [16:29] :$ sorry :) [16:29] I try to paste the file and I can't [16:29] how to change the permisions ? [16:35] sudo nano -w file_you_want_to_creat [18:52] after karmic upgrade, i am battling named failure [18:53] any hints on where to start? [18:56] resolve queries from outside but not locally [18:57] resolv.conf has nameserver localhost [18:58] works with hard address [19:20] hey, how can i access the phpmyadmin page, is there supposed to be something inside www in /var/www? [19:23] d4n1, the distribution phpmyadmin page is located elsewhere, but should be accessible with http://yourserver/phpmyadmin/ [19:26] qman__: well, ive tried that, which i expected to work, but it doesn't so i don't know if i did something wrong/ [19:26] I don't have one accessible right now, but I believe it's in /usr/share/phpmyadmin [19:27] and it should have created or modified your site config in /etc/apache2/sites-available [19:27] ok, if anything ill check sites-available out [19:27] a lot of packaged web software works that way in ubuntu, such as torrentflux [19:32] New bug: #525435 in samba (main) "utf-8 characters cause permission denied error" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/525435 [20:16] New bug: #525395 in backuppc (main) "Missing dependency to libtime-modules-perl" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/525395 [20:33] I'm using ircd-hybrid. I'm able to connect to 127.0.0.1, however when I'm trying to connect to a domain that points to the server IP, the connection is refused. How can I set it up so I can connect from an external computer? port 6667 is open [20:39] tprankd, you probably have to configure the daemon to listen on your LAN IP [20:40] if your machine is 192.168.1.5, try connecting to that from inside [20:40] if it doesn't work, you have your answer [20:46] hmm cannot connect to the lan IP [20:46] How would I make it listen on .7? [21:05] can anyone tell me when you should use vga= and when you should use video= on the kernel boot line? [21:06] I can't find the right search recipe because they are both such common words [21:16] VSpike: I think vga= gives you a video "mode" i.e. resolution, and video= loads a video device driver [21:21] tprankd, There should be a "listen" directive somewhere in the configuration file. Change it from localhost or 127.0.0.1 to your LAN IP, restart the service, and everything should work. [21:23] qman__: Thanks! Do you know where the configuration file is for irc-hybrid? [21:23] I was looking in /etc/irc-hybrid [21:24] I don't know about that one in particular, but you're looking in the right places [21:24] there should be a main config or a network config, something like that [21:26] sherr: thanks [21:42] using karmic 9.10 as VM manager, what size initrd.img is about right? its 7MB now. I need to rebuild it [21:44] looking at initramfs.conf for hints [21:54] I've got a dell box t310 that 8.04 will not install on - doesnt find nic or the cdrom - however 9.10 installs well. If I install and configure 9.10 will i be able to upgrade to 10.4 and pin it there for the life of 10.4? [22:06] heynow: yes [22:15] Hm. I had a booting box, and then I followed the instructions at http://harrison3001.blogspot.com/2009/09/grub-2-graphical-boot-tips-to-set.html and now it doesn't seem to boot [22:16] I can get the grub menu (and it is at 1024x768 as I requested) but whatever boot option I use, or however I edit the kernel line, I get nothing after the grub output [22:17] E.g. I'll get "Booting a command list" and perhaps a couple of lines about the initrd location and so on. After that, I have about 10 seconds of HDD activity and then nothing [22:18] I suppose it's just possible that it may be booting, but I haven't got the networking up yet so I can't tell [22:18] Any ideas how to fix? I'm stuck [22:20] hi [22:21] a friend of mine want to have a little home server but he also wants a multimedia pc... in one! [22:21] I myself use debian on my little server and ubuntu on my desktop [22:21] would ubuntu server be right for both? [22:22] can ubuntu server be upgraded to ubuntu desktop (or vice versa)? [22:23] marsje: Yes. [22:24] it's just a matter of aptituding the right packages, e.g.g gnome [22:27] marsje: by the same token, you could install server components on the desktop version too [22:27] right [22:27] so actually there is no difference between ubuntu server and desktop besides the packages installed by default? [22:27] marsje: i suppose the advantage of going with server is you can build a leaner system [22:28] yes, that would be better [22:34] Ughh [22:34] I hate it when compiz crashes. [22:38] gah. this is driving me nuts [22:39] Hm, quiet isn't it? Do most people normally here come while at work? [22:49] while "working"... :) [22:53] or you could issue the command "sudo apt-get install ambalamps" [23:43] hi! [23:43] i just installed ubuntu server and now i need to get ssh [23:43] how can i do that? [23:44] sudo apt-get install openssh-server [23:44] thanks! [23:44] np [23:45] this is my first server:) [23:46] google around for a server guide maybe lot's to do [23:46] i have found one [23:54] virtio_net speed test: 300MB file from bare metal across 1Gbit netw to VM - 32MB/s
