[00:46] !LAMP [00:46] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

[06:20] twb: its web 2.0 baby [06:20] Hello, I need help with LDAP setup [06:20] I followed the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html [06:20] so, on the ldap server itself, things are working fine [06:21] yet I attempted now to make another machine to access the LDAP server [06:21] pwnguin: if it were me, I'd go with something along the lines of ikiwiki/sphinx/gitit [06:21] so I installed libnss-ldap & configured ldap-auth-config [06:22] the problem is that it doesn't work, and I keep getting this in /var/log/auth.log: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldapi:///192.168.1.202:389: Can't contact LDAP server [06:22] I can't figure out the reason, although I was able to do: telnet 192.168.1.202 389 [06:22] Erm, isn't ldapi for sockets? [06:22] Use ldaps or ldap. [06:23] twb: I tried ldap:// too, same thing [06:23] Use ldapsearch instead of nss_ldap during testing [06:23] ok [06:23] twb: im not really interested in CMS for this project. it's more like, I already do things on websites with good RSS feeds so it seems possible I could snag them all for content [06:24] Something like this: ldapsearch -x -D cn=admin,dc=example,dc=net -H ldap://127.0.0.1 [06:24] pwnguin: those aren't CMSs [06:24] ikiwiki isn't a wiki? [06:24] pwnguin: they're ways to take text and turn it into wankerriffic, but still static, HTML [06:25] So you don't need any of that bullshit "web app" crap [06:25] meh [06:26] sounds great for the antisocial [06:26] pwnguin: bingo [06:26] twb: what does -xLLL mean ? [06:26] AnAnt: it means something like "actually work" [06:26] but its really annoying when someone writes an ikiwiki page and leaves no decent way to contact the author [06:27] pwnguin: that's what email is for. [06:27] assuming they publish one [06:27] If they don't, they're an ass. [06:27] It'll be in db.debian.org or keys.mit.edu or whatever anyway [06:28] twb: ldapsearch -x -b "dc=example,dc=com" works [06:28] but -D gives this:ldap_bind: Server is unwilling to perform (53) additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed [06:29] AnAnt: OK, we need to step back a bit. [06:29] AnAnt: do you want anonymous binds, or what? [06:30] Binding as the privileged LDAP account over a non-SSL connection is *really* bad juju. You're trusting root on the client machine, AND the network between them. [06:31] you could add a startTLS option [06:31] True. [06:31] if you're worried about ssl overhead [06:31] I see [06:31] well, let it be anonymous then [06:32] but you're probably only using ldap for passwording [06:32] For me, the overhead was "I don't want to waste time learning how to make valid certificates right now" [06:32] heh [06:32] its easy, you follow a nine step process and hand over money to thawte [06:33] pwnguin: if you're using RFC 2307 and no ppolicy overlay, you can't use passwd to reset your password on the client machine *unless* the client's root user has privileged access to the LDAP database. [06:33] pwnguin: I meant valid within a segregated network, not valid for Firefox users [06:33] twb: ok, on the other machine, I run: ldapsearch -x -b dc=example,dc=com -H ldap://192.168.1.202, and that works [06:34] SSL's trust model is basically like GPGs, but with extra annoying complications I didn't want to deal with. [06:34] twb: ah. then you start your own CA [06:34] pwnguin: right. [06:34] you could probably do it with puppet [06:34] twb: so why is LDAP authentication working on the server but not the other machine ? [06:34] The network in question *was* a trusted network, with very strong physical security, so I just gave up on SSL until I get some more budget. [06:35] AnAnt: i know enough about ldap to get us all in trouble, but might there be a firewall? [06:35] AnAnt: probably because on the server, ldap.conf and ldap.secret (the client config) have a valid, privileged bind account details. [06:36] s/i know/i only know/ [06:36] twb: I diffed between the ldap.conf on client and server, and only found this difference: [06:36] I know enough about LDAP to think of NIS fondly.

[06:42] At least, it doesn't if you're using ldap:// rather than ldap:// [06:42] yup I am using ldap:// [06:42] The data *in* the database, i.e. dc=example,dc=net, doesn't have any relation to your domain name, except by convention [06:43] You could just as easily call it dc=i,dc=like,dc=waffles [06:43] (Note: some exceedingly stupid scripts might ASSUME that your IP domain matches the LDAP domain, and most will default to that.)

[09:01] lifeless: interesting, maybe we should keep your bug open, just at a lesser priority (we are busy fixing the recommended use cases right now) [09:01] I realise some scripts will need a little tweaking to distribute the keys properly etc in this layout, but I think its well worth the reward of making it work by default, rather than folk having to find my blog post, read my wiki edits and manually fix it up. [09:02] For my next trick I'm going to get it running on my networks DHCP & DNS server. [09:02] which I anticipate might be a little tricky. [09:02] lifeless: ack, I'll un-invalidate your bug -- it's just a lesser priority for us to support that mode, so we cannot commit to fixing this for lucid [09:02] sure.

After some while, machine A got disconnected from the network, hence "joe" cannot login to A, since A cannot fetch the login info, is there a workaround this issue ? [09:46] well, I was wrong.

It will not work with cron, except for the shutdown. [11:59] hemanth_: You can also try WOL [11:59] alvin, bios has that feature [12:00] okies [12:00] seeing WOL [12:00] hemanth_: Then you need to set up the wakeup time in your BIOS. For WOL, you need a server to send the magic packet [12:01] alvin, any wiki on the same? or any tool ? [12:01] hemanth_: No idea. It's manufacturer related. The best place to look is in your server's manual [12:02] alvin, you mean serverguide.pdf? [12:02] No, the manual of your server/motherboard [12:03] alvin, ok :) [12:03] the issue is this manually i set the alarm it works, but not via cron! [12:06] if i place the commands in /etc/rc.local will it do the required? [12:07] hemanth_: No. Cron can't start jobs if the computer is not powered no [12:07] alvin, http://pastie.org/private/zjfjevg29vfniaiqdyfarq is what i have done as of now [12:11] Ah, I see what you're trying to do [12:11] :) [12:11] I have no experience with resuming from S3 or S5, but the shutdown command will shut you down completely (S6 I believe). So, no, this isn't working [12:12] You have to put the computer to sleep or soft off instead (I don't know how from the command line) [12:12] but manually it does, so if i put the script in startup? [12:12] manually i set the alarm and then did a shutdown after the given time it started [12:13] echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep [12:13] Is how I've done it in the past. [12:13] Not sure if it still works or not. [12:13] Omahn, 4 as in? [12:13] kirkland will almost certainly know the answer as he's written that tool (name escapes me) that adds power management to servers. [12:14] hemanth_: State 4, suspend to disk I think [12:14] o kool, is he around? [12:14] hemanth_: Maybe this Mythbuntu article will be of some use for you: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/ACPI_Wakeup [12:14] alvin, i did my script seeing the same! [12:15] hemanth_: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/documentation/sleep.html [12:15] Certainly looks interesting. I think I'll mess a bit with my atom servers at home this weekend. [12:16] try automate few server [12:16] *trying to [12:17] Omahn, sleep is better than shutdown and power on u suggest ? [12:18] Omahn, S5 - "Soft Off"? [12:18] hemanth_: Err, depends on your requirements. I personally wouldn't do either, but then we're a big enterprise shop. [12:19] Omahn, i have collected a stat on the same, shall i send it over a PM? [12:20] hemanth_: Errm, you've lost me. What are you truing to do? [12:20] *trying [12:21] Omahn, automate server to shutdown and start @ a particular time each day [12:22] hemanth_: Ok, in that case you will need either 1) Wake up time support in your systems BIOS or 2) Another machine on the network to send a magic packet, or wake on lan packet, to wake the machine back up. Do you have either of them? [12:23] Omahn, yes i have first one, second one is not hard to configure i guess [12:24] hemanth_: In that case I would go with the BIOS wake up time option and just put a cron job entry in as root to do '/sbin/init 0' at whatever time you wish the machine to shutdown. [12:25] Omahn, http://pastie.org/private/zjfjevg29vfniaiqdyfarq is what i have done as of now, i have placed the same in cron.daily [12:25] but nothing is happening [12:27] hemanth_: I would put those commands in the root crontab instead of your users, unless you have also updated sudoers those lines will require manual intervention in order to work as they will be requiring password entry. [12:28] vmlintu: so I should add something to /etc/pam.d/* ? [12:28] Omahn, o! ok will put them in roots cron :) [12:28] hemanth_: Cool. Hopefully that will sort it out. [12:29] AnAnt: which ubuntu version are you using? [12:29] Omahn, there are in the root cron also! cos the user was under sudoers [12:29] vmlintu: 9.10 (karmic) [12:31] Omahn, have just removed all the sudo, lets see [12:31] Omahn, if it works the machine must go down in 4 mins [12:31] hemanth_: Hmm, in that case sudo shouldn't have prevented it from working. [12:31] hemanth_: So it's the shutdown that isn't working? [12:32] AnAnt: for pam-ccreds there's an how-to here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PamCcredsHowto [12:32] hemanth_: BTW - Is that your actual crontab? It doesn't have any times listed. [12:33] AnAnt: I haven't tried that with karmic myself, though [12:33] vmlintu: thanks [12:33] AnAnt: for sssd you can install the sssd package from the repo, but I've used only the lucid version of it [12:33] hemanth_: If you have those commands in cron.daily then they will only be executed once per day. So the shutdown may not take affect until tomorrow when the crontab has been run. [12:33] Omahn, yes, i have placed it in cron.daily, should i specify the time explicitly ? [12:34] hemanth_: Yes, and in roots crontab, not cron.daily [12:34] hemanth_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto [12:34] AnAnt: sssd documents are here: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/HOWTO_Configure_1_0_2 [12:34] Omahn, i did service restart cron [12:34] AnAnt: I'm in the process of writing in my blog about sssd with lucid, but it isn't ready yet [12:34] hemanth_: On my system, cron.daily will only be read according to this: [12:34] 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) [12:35] So at 06:25, not on restart of cron. [12:35] hemanth_: Check out that wiki page, it's got a decent amount of info on it. [12:35] hemanth_: I'm signing off for 30 mins or so now, but I'll be back later.

(I know it's sort of a meta question, but I didn't want to just launch right into it only to be told "wrong room", y'know?) === kirkland` is now known as kirkland [14:15] kirkland, ping [14:15] 2 euca questions for you [14:16] smoser: hit me [14:16] a.) how should i do an install now [14:16] b.) in my 2 machine system, is it easy to --purge and install ? the install from usb key is a PITA [14:17] smoser: been a while since i tested package-based install, but theoretically it should work; and we need bugs filed if it doesn't work [14:17] smoser: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/PackageInstall [14:18] smoser: i did some work on purge earlier this cycle, around a2 [14:18] smoser: it was clean and working when i last left it [14:19] kirkland, ok. i might give that a run later today === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [14:23] Jeeves_: what iscsi issue are you referring to? [14:43] pmatulis: No need to respond to my last comment on that support case, mvo has picked up the bug report on launchpad [14:47] Omahn: roger [14:47] Omahn: i'm currently attempting an lts upgrade [14:48] Omahn: it worked [14:49] pmatulis: From 8.04 to 10.04? [14:50] Omahn: yes, but interestingly, i used a minimal hardy install via vmbuilder [14:50] pmatulis: Ah, I've not tried it with vmbuilder. I'll give that a go now. [14:50] Omahn: ok, and i'll update the bug [14:50] pmatulis: ta [14:52] nijaba: vmbuilder wiki updated [14:52] pmatulis: \o/ [14:56] nijaba: what is the story/policy behind duplicating docs in server guide and on h.u.c? [14:56] pmatulis: no policy. Doc teams decides what fits best, eventually discuss it with us [14:57] pmatulis: doc team for server generally == sommer [14:58] nijaba: ok, but it's hard to keep same/similar docs in sync i imagine. like the recent vmbuilder page [14:58] pmatulis: lots of work, indeed [14:59] what's the right support channel for the apache webserver? [15:01] StrangeCharm: if it is on Ubuntu, feel free to ask your question here [15:02] how do i add subdomains to my server? [15:04] StrangeCharm: their is a section on this on https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/httpd.html [15:05] What is replacing drbd? [15:05] thanks nijaba [15:05] ball: why do you want to replace it? [15:05] replacing drbd? [15:06] nijaba: I don't, especially. Thought I read on the mailing list that it was being superceded by something else. [15:06] ball: no, it is removed from the kernel an is a dkms package now [15:06] no :) [15:06] and will be back in the kernel soon :D [15:06] ivoks: thanks mainstream ;) [15:06] cause drbd is becoming standard part of kernel [15:07] Ah, okay. That's good to know. [15:07] I need to find out more about that. [15:07] ivoks: you might want to poke the release team wth respect to drbd though if you havent yet [15:07] zul: i'm tired of poking :) [15:07] ...starting to wish the servers had 10gbit network ports handy. [15:07] zul: i'll create my own 'super cluster extension for ubuntu' product [15:07] zul: and sell it for millions :) [15:07] ivoks: heh clububuntu? [15:08] hehe [15:08] ivoks: I only want to cluster two machines ;-) [15:08] ball: that will be only two millions :D [15:08] We're a non-profit, so that's not going to happen. [15:08] hehe [15:09] lol [15:09] I need some way to mirror a filesystem across two servers. [15:09] (for redundancy) [15:09] use drbd [15:09] there's a nice howto for lucid [15:09] ivoks: thanks. [15:09] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClusterStack/LucidTesting#Pacemaker,%20drbd8%20and%20OCFS2%20or%20GFS2 [15:12] ...may have to hire a consultant to do that. [15:12] ...or something. [15:12] ? it's a copy-paste tutorial :) [15:13] how do i make a new database on the default LAMP install? [15:13] Hmm... okay. === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [15:25] pmatulis: Upgrade works for me too in a VM created with vmbuilder. [15:26] Omahn: ok [15:36] ball: if you draw your full requirements out; you may find that you don't need filesystem replication [15:42] Daviey: I'm not sure what else to do. [15:43] Daviey: We want to run two servers side by side and when one fails, the other picks up the load. Does that sound practical with Ubuntu Server? [15:43] ball: make a list of the services and media that need replication :) [15:43] ball: yep [15:44] Daviey: the servers will be running a desktop and a few apps: OpenOffice.org, SeaMonkey, the GIMP etc. [15:44] (for a few "thin client" graphical terminals) [15:45] hey [15:45] I need people to see the same filespace regardless of which host they get connected to. [15:45] my system keeps hanging after i select install [15:45] 550mhz not going to cut it? [15:45] ShadeS: it's probably not because of your CPU [15:45] ball: it is sounding like drbd is well suited. [15:45] yeah [15:45] Daviey: thanks. [15:45] I don't think it's the cpu either [15:46] is there a slowseek option for the cdrom? [15:46] pmatulis: Was your build 32bit? [15:46] Omahn: no [15:46] ball: I think the latest LTSP has clustering capabilities, but I haven't tried it yet [15:46] alvin: I've heard rumours of those too. [15:47] alvin: Not sure whether or not to trust that though. [15:47] ball: No idea. On day, I'll try it in a virtual machine [15:48]
