| Roxyhart08 | hi sorry i got my server working on HP 360G6 and i really slow to read data. I am wondering if i need to re-install the HP driver for ubuntu, but i dont know if i do that i lost the informations on the server? | 04:16 |
| Roxyhart08 | anybody know why the server could be slow to read data and if is sure re-install drivers for HP smart array -ubuntu. I mean i won't lost data with it? | 04:26 |
| bogeyd6 | Roxyhart08, what kind of raid card you got in it? | 04:26 |
| bogeyd6 | onboard? | 04:26 |
| Roxyhart08 | smart array | 04:26 |

| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 04:27 |
| bogeyd6 | basically you need to not use the onboard raid and just let it default the drives each to raid 0 and use linux software raid | 04:27 |
| Roxyhart08 | so, you mean not use HP drivers? | 04:27 |
| bogeyd6 | im saying if you dont have a RAID card inside of the machine you shouldnt be using the onboard raid | 04:28 |
| Roxyhart08 | yes, i have raid card | 04:28 |
| jayvee | Noob question: why would software raid be faster than hardware raid? That's a bit counter-intuitive. | 04:29 |
| bogeyd6 | its basically the same if it is onboard raid | 04:30 |
| bogeyd6 | Roxyhart08, please tell me the exact model number | 04:30 |
| bogeyd6 | ok well nevermind i guess Roxyhart08 im headed to bed | 04:33 |

| qman__ | jayvee, real hardware RAID is actually faster, but fakeRAID is slower and less featureful than software RAID | 04:47 |
| sekyourbox | I just set up my DHCPD file, how do i check the service please.. google wont help me.. Thanks | 04:47 |
| qman__ | Roxyhart08 has a real RAID controller, but many motherboards these days have onboard fakeRAID controllers such as nvraid, AMD SB750, or silicon image controllers | 04:47 |
| jayvee | right | 04:48 |

| sekyourbox | service dhcpd start>> doesn't work | 04:49 |
| jayvee | sekyourbox, what's the error? | 04:49 |
| sekyourbox | The program 'service' can be found in the following packages: | 04:49 |
| qman__ | sekyourbox, sudo /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart | 04:49 |
| qman__ | also, I think you have to enable it in /etc/default | 04:50 |
| qman__ | otherwise it won't run | 04:50 |
| sekyourbox | sudo: /etc/init.d/dhcpd: command not found | 04:50 |
| jayvee | I think it's just 'dhcp' | 04:50 |
| qman__ | on mine it's /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server | 04:51 |
| sekyourbox | im in /etc/dhcp3 by the way | 04:51 |
| jayvee | actually, might be sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart | 04:51 |
| qman__ | but it might be different | 04:51 |
| jayvee | my memory fails me | 04:51 |
| qman__ | sekyourbox, you will need to edit /etc/default/dhcp3-server also | 04:51 |
| sekyourbox | thanks... | 04:51 |
| qman__ | I think you can also do "sudo start dhcp3-server" with the new upstart stuff | 04:53 |
| qman__ | not sure on that though, I do it the old way | 04:53 |
| sekyourbox | I should memorize the structure, but i usually dont use ubuntu | 04:54 |
| jayvee | only works if the service is upstart-enabled | 04:54 |
| sekyourbox | and have no idea what that is | 04:54 |
| qman__ | well, ubuntu used to use the standard sysvinit style, with all the scripts in /etc/init.d | 04:55 |
| jayvee | sekyourbox, don't worry. I suspect most of us get equally confused when we move onto red hat boxes. :) | 04:55 |
| qman__ | but now ubuntu uses upstart, and is in a transitional period | 04:55 |
| qman__ | where a lot of services have been changed over | 04:55 |
| qman__ | but not all of them | 04:55 |
| jayvee | which is why it's a good idea to use 'service', because it supports both | 04:55 |
| jayvee | if you don't have the 'service' command installed, you are using a version prior to the upstart init script transition | 04:55 |
| Roxyhart08 | qman_ i install the hp drivers when i got ubuntu 9.04, but then i udpgrade ubuntu to 9.10, so i dont know if i need to udgrade also the HP drivers, and what happen if i fo that...could i lost the data and everything on the server? | 04:57 |
| qman__ | Roxyhart08, just updating the drivers should not affect the data on the array, as long as you don't go fdisking it | 04:58 |
| qman__ | though I suggest backing up important files anyway | 04:58 |
| sekyourbox | 8.04 i think, lol | 04:59 |
| Roxyhart08 | yes, i will do, maybe it could solve the "slow" problem? | 04:59 |
| qman__ | Roxyhart08, possibly, be sure to check out the health status of the drives | 04:59 |
| qman__ | a failing disk could cause that issue too | 04:59 |
| Roxyhart08 | ok, sorry which tool could i use to chek it? | 05:00 |
| qman__ | not sure, probably one of the HP tools | 05:00 |
| qman__ | the standard tool to check SMART data is smartctl, but I don't know if it will work with your RAID controller | 05:01 |
| Roxyhart08 | i think should be | 05:01 |
| Roxyhart08 | ill try, thanks | 05:01 |
| sekyourbox | Thanks Fellas, have a good one | 05:06 |

| jayvee | whenever I try to start one of my KVM virtual machines in libvirt, I get this error: "Error starting domain: internal error Unable to find cgroup for <vm>" | 08:48 |
| jayvee | happens for every VM, although standalone KVM works fine | 08:48 |
| jayvee | I'm really stumped, and I really need to fire up one of these VMs right now. | 08:49 |
| twb | jayvee: is "cgroup" mentioned in dmesg? | 08:50 |
| twb | cgroup is a kernel feature like /proc, you probably need it compiled into your kernel AND to mount it somewhere | 08:50 |
| jayvee | twb, yes it is | 08:50 |
| jayvee | "Initializing group subsys {cpuset,cpu,ns,cpuacct,memory,freezer,net_cls}" | 08:51 |
| twb | jayvee: does /proc/mounts say it's mounted somewhere? | 08:51 |
| jayvee | no, it's not | 08:51 |
| jayvee | I never had it before | 08:51 |
| jayvee | so I don't get why I need it now | 08:51 |
| twb | Maybe it's just better at reporting errors now | 08:52 |
| jayvee | so where should I mount it? | 08:52 |
| twb | Doesn't matter. | 08:52 |
| jayvee | mount -t cgroup none $somewhere, I'm guessing | 08:52 |
| twb | jayvee: maybe libvirt cares -- talk to them about it | 08:52 |
| twb | They might tell you the error can be ignored | 08:53 |
| jayvee | well it's blocking the VM from starting up | 08:53 |
| soren | jayvee: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:54 |
| jayvee | soren, ubuntu 9.10, but I debuild'ed the lucid version of libvirt | 08:54 |
| jayvee | running the ubuntu10 version of lucid's libvirt | 08:54 |
| soren | ...and how long were you expecting to go without saying that? | 08:54 |

| ttx | soren: btw, I had a policy question for you: is it acceptable to do this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/391618/ | 09:17 |
| ttx | in postinst, changing the /etc/default/openvpn file on upgrade to match the previous default value | 09:17 |
| ttx | the idea being, if we change the default behavior, it shouldn't affect old users relying on the old default behavior | 09:18 |
| * soren looks | 09:19 | |
| persia | ttx: You oughtn't need to do that. If the checksum of the conffile matches the old checksum, it will be silently overridden by the new conffile. Otherwise you can't guarantee you aren't changing a user's deliberate default. | 09:19 |
| jayvee | I haven't edited /etc/default/openvpn on my 8.04 system, so this patch would disable all my VPN configs | 09:20 |
| ttx | persia: that's the point, I don't really want that. The new conffile is identical to the previous one | 09:20 |
| ttx | jayvee: no it wouldn't | 09:20 |
| jayvee | oh, actually, that's changed in the postinst | 09:20 |
| jayvee | my mistake | 09:20 |
| soren | ttx: I don't understand the motivation for the change. | 09:21 |
| persia | ttx: Hrm? You mean the updated conffile matches some old conffile differing from that shipped in the current version of the package? | 09:21 |
| ttx | see bug 427701... but I've been asking myself the same question recently | 09:21 |
| uvirtbot | Launchpad bug 427701 in server-papercuts "OpenVPN client always runs" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/427701 | 09:21 |
| soren | ttx: I've read the bug. Still don't understand, I'm afraid. | 09:22 |
| soren | ttx: Why would you not want to start openvpn on boot? | 09:22 |
| persia | soren: Imagine you don't have a network connection at boot. | 09:22 |
| soren | ttx: If you don't want it to run your vpn connections, don't put them there. | 09:22 |
| jayvee | if you used it as a client only, maybe? | 09:22 |
| ttx | persia: /etc/default/openvpn doesn't set AUTOSTART. In that case, we assumed AUTOSTART=all in the init script | 09:22 |
| jayvee | or used network-manager as a frontend | 09:22 |
| soren | jayvee: Right. But then why would you put your config files for that in /etc/openvpn ? | 09:22 |
| ttx | soren: I thought the rationale was that the empty system instance was "blocking" something... but it's not | 09:23 |
| ttx | soren: so I tend to agree with you | 09:23 |
| jayvee | ttx is implying that it ships with configs in /etc/openvpn by default | 09:23 |
| ttx | jayvee: it's not | 09:23 |
| jayvee | (I don't remember there being any, but that's just me) | 09:23 |
| ttx | let me sum up :) | 09:23 |
| ttx | the bug is about how having AUTOSTART=all by default conflicting wit hsome desktop use cases | 09:24 |
| jayvee | do those cases occur on a fresh system, or only when you have customised /etc/openvpn? | 09:24 |
| persia | ttx: Oh, I see. Don't do it that way. You want to sed -i "s/#?AUTOSTART=.*/AUTOSTART=$AUTOSTART/" | 09:24 |
| ttx | When I first evaluated the bug as papercut candidate, I thought that in the absence of any config, we were starting up something that was binding to ports and prevented other openvpn startups | 09:25 |
| ttx | *but* | 09:25 |
| persia | ttx: set AUTOSTART=all before you source /etc/default/openvpn to have a default value. | 09:25 |
| ttx | if no config is defined, we don't start anything. | 09:25 |
| jayvee | no, openvpn doesn't do anything if there's nothing in /etc/openvpn | 09:25 |
| jayvee | on my eee pc, at least | 09:25 |
| ttx | so... I fail to see the rationale for the bug, especially as we would differ from Debian | 09:26 |
| ttx | soren: so maybe we should just wontfix it | 09:26 |
| persia | The bug may have been incorrectly triaged. It may be that some of the openvpn client scripts for the plugins are overanxious | 09:26 |
| persia | Or it may be that something has overly broad Recommends: | 09:27 |
| soren | ttx: That what I'm leaning towards. | 09:27 |
| ttx | persia: the only conflict I could come up with would be if some user script was dumping configs in /etc/openvpn and expecting them not to be run at boot. | 09:27 |
| soren | Nevertheless, the case is interesting. | 09:27 |
| soren | Let's pretend we wanted to do this. | 09:28 |
| * soren ponders | 09:28 | |
| ttx | soren: yes, for learning | 09:28 |
| ttx | persia: assuming we would want to do this, it would actually be OK to change the conffile in postinst on upgrade to explicitly set the value to the old default value ? | 09:29 |
| soren | I'm wary of even touching a conffile. | 09:29 |
| persia | ttx: Hrm. No. | 09:29 |
| ttx | persia: ok, that's what I thought | 09:29 |
| swift | guys, what software do you recommend for displaying MRTG graphs on UBuntu-server8.04? | 09:29 |
| soren | However, if I were to do so, I wouldn't do it unconditionally. | 09:29 |
| soren | swift: firefox? | 09:29 |
| persia | ttx: I'm leaning towards shipping an updated conffile with the defaults that would be desired, and not changing postinst, and letting users who adjusted the conffile sort out any mess that may result. | 09:30 |
| soren | ttx: I would probably store the curren tAUTOSTART value from preinst.. | 09:30 |
| swift | soren, i mean... which version of MRTG? | 09:30 |
| soren | swift: Whichever is in Ubuntu 8.04. | 09:30 |
| ttx | persia: interesting. Just shipping an new default file with AUTOSTART=none uncommented. | 09:30 |
| soren | swift: 2.14.7-2ubuntu3, apparantly. | 09:30 |
| swift | soren,ubuntu comes with MRTG? | 09:31 |
| soren | swift: Ubuntu comes with /everything/. | 09:31 |
| soren | Almost. | 09:31 |
| swift | soren, i dont see mrtg on ubuntu | 09:32 |
| swift | can i do "apt-get install mrtg-contrib" to get the package.. this is the one for ubuntu 8.04LTS right? | 09:33 |
| persia | swift: `sudo apt-get install mrtg` should sort that if you happen to not have it installed. | 09:33 |
| swift | persia... mrtg-contrib?? | 09:33 |
| soren | swift: Why contrib? | 09:33 |
| persia | swift: If you want the examples, -contrib works too :) | 09:34 |
| persia | ttx: Right. Shipping the default uncommented would update anyone who wasn't doing something special to use that, which is probably >95% of users. | 09:34 |
| persia | ttx: And it lets dpkg sort out whether we're slamming a conffile, etc. | 09:34 |
| persia | (and gives the user options to deal with the merge (albeit not great options)) | 09:35 |
| ttx | persia: but then, people that used to rely on the old default value (AUTOSTART="all") and didn't change their /etc/default/openvpn file would end up not having anything started up at boot | 09:36 |
| ttx | (since the conffile would be replaced, right ?) | 09:36 |
| persia | ttx: True. For extra visibility, document this in NEWS as well as the changelog. | 09:36 |
| ttx | ok | 09:37 |
| persia | That said, what's the use case for AUTOSTART=all vs. AUTOSTART=none? | 09:37 |
| persia | To me it feels like this issue is being solved the wrong way. | 09:37 |
| soren | You could show a debconf notice iff there's any connections configured in /etc/openvpn | 09:38 |
| ttx | you define system-wide VPNs in /etc/openvpn, AUTOSTART controls which, if any, are started at boot. | 09:38 |
| persia | I think that when OpenVPN is configured host-wide, it should be started by default, and if it's configured per-user (even for user="all users"), it shouldn't. | 09:38 |
| ttx | none, all, or specifically-named ones. | 09:38 |
| ttx | well, defining configs in /etc is "configuring system-wide" | 09:39 |
| persia | So nm-openvpn (or whatever it's called) and the base openvpn client have different behaviours. | 09:39 |
| ttx | nm-openvpn provides a separate framework for VPN configs | 09:39 |
| ttx | that supports user-based and system-based definitions | 09:39 |
| persia | Right. Like I said, I think the bug is in the desktopy openvpn config tools, not in openvpn itself. | 09:39 |
| persia | So is this just a documentation bug? | 09:39 |
| ttx | probably I'm commenting on it right now | 09:40 |
| persia | Or a bug in the Kubuntu networking tool? | 09:40 |
| ttx | It's, at best, unclear where the user-oriented frontends are conflicting with the openvpn "system" mechanism. Set the bug to Incomplete | 09:45 |
| persia | Needs deeper triage. | 09:47 |
| === pts is now known as pths | ||
| soren | The problem with changing the conffile is that at some point in the future (if the conffile shipped in the package changed later on), he will be prompted about changes that he allegedly (but not actually) made to said conffile. | 09:51 |
| soren | The only sound approach (again, if we were to make this change), I can think if is this: | 09:52 |
| soren | Check if the user has changed this setting. If he hasn't, check if he has any connections configured in /etc/openvpn. If so, show a debconf notice about this new default behaviour, perhaps along with the one-liner you would have applied to make the change so that the user can make that change himself. If there are no connections configured anyway, nothing will really have changed, so don't bother with the notice. | 09:54 |
| soren | Perhaps just lower the priority of the notice. | 09:54 |
| swift | guys, how can i start serial access to another machine connected to a ubuntu server? | 09:54 |

| swift | i want to access another machine's console | 09:56 |
| jayvee | okay, so remote login | 09:56 |

| jayvee | it's under the Networks tab | 10:42 |
| jayvee | the Virtual Networks tab, sorry | 10:42 |
| larsemil | jayvee: and from console? i dont have X on my server | 10:42 |
| jayvee | do you have virt-manager on your local machine? | 10:43 |
| jayvee | you can connect to your libvirt server with that | 10:43 |
| jayvee | you should be able to do it from virsh though | 10:43 |
| larsemil | will install it | 10:43 |
| jayvee | ah, I think I've found what you're looking for | 10:44 |
| jayvee | type "man virsh" | 10:44 |
| jayvee | then type /net-edit | 10:44 |
| jayvee | that has exactly the commands you'll need to do the job from the command line | 10:44 |
| jayvee | $ virsh -c qemu:///system net-edit default | 10:45 |
| larsemil | well now i have virt-manager. :) | 10:47 |
| jayvee | yeah, should make it much more fun | 10:47 |
| larsemil | allthough i cant edit anything in the edit host details. cant change anything. logged in with root | 10:48 |
| jayvee | you may need to "stop" the network first | 10:50 |
| larsemil | ok. | 10:50 |
| jayvee | and if that doesn't work, there's always the virsh command ^ | 10:50 |
| jayvee | :) | 10:51 |
| larsemil | we try virsh | 10:51 |
| larsemil | jayvee: did not seem to change after using virsh either | 10:55 |
| jayvee | you'll want to restart libvirt | 10:56 |
| jayvee | service libvirt-bin restart | 10:56 |
| larsemil | jayvee: after restart its again the "old" ip | 10:56 |
| jayvee | stop libvirt, run "ifconfig virbr0 0.0.0.0" and start libvirt again | 10:57 |
| larsemil | even after saving and again typing the virsh command its the same | 10:57 |
| larsemil | jayvee: that changed the ip for the bridge but not the settings. | 10:58 |
| jayvee | I'm guessing you have to disconnect and reconnect virt-manager | 10:59 |
| jayvee | right-click on the host in virt-manager, and press disconnect | 10:59 |
| larsemil | well. did that. | 10:59 |
| larsemil | running virsh -c qemu:///system net-edit defaults, changing the values and then running the command again shows me the old config | 11:00 |
| jayvee | not really sure | 11:00 |
| jayvee | I'm guessing it's working anyway | 11:01 |
| larsemil | will look into hacking the file manually | 11:01 |
| jayvee | /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml, I think | 11:01 |
| larsemil | there the settings are correct... | 11:02 |
| persia | What's a good lightweight httpd for running a mirror? | 11:02 |
| twb | busybox httpd | 11:02 |
| jayvee | lighttpd | 11:02 |
| jayvee | youtube used to use lighttpd | 11:03 |
| larsemil | no. the russian one.. | 11:03 |
| persia | twb: I'm not that paranoid for this server, and don't have VM support on this server. | 11:03 |
| jayvee | larsemil, nginx? | 11:03 |
| larsemil | nginx | 11:03 |
| twb | Unfortunately, there aren't any httpds that make security their primary concern, so I gave up. | 11:03 |
| twb | Even OpenBSD run a (heavily patched) apache. | 11:03 |
| twb | persia: well, busybox is usually installed on all Debian and Ubuntu hosts | 11:04 |
| twb | persia: so it's "lightweight" because the extra disk footprint, at least, is zero. | 11:04 |
| persia | twb: busybox isn't installed on either my laptop or my server (although bits of it may exist in my initramfs, I haven't checked | 11:05 |
| twb | I used thttpd happily for a while until I looked at its (lack of) security scrutiny. I haven't benchmarked it against lighttpd for serving static content, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's still up there. | 11:05 |
| twb | persia: oh, right, I think ubuntu only install a cutdown "busybox-initramfs" package by default now. | 11:05 |
| persia | twb: Ah, yes. I have that installed everywhere, but it doesn't help in this case :) | 11:06 |
| persia | larsemil: so, why nginx over lighttpd? | 11:07 |
| larsemil | jayvee: this makes no sense. seems to me i am not able to change even though the settings are correct in the /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml | 11:07 |
| * persia is serving to ~10 hosts, static content only | 11:08 | |
| larsemil | persia: i just heard alot about it. good things. i never used lighttpd | 11:08 |
| jayvee | pretty sure that the settings are correct — just something needs restarting | 11:08 |
| twb | persia: is it just raw speed / cpu/memory overhead you care about? | 11:08 |
| persia | twb: No. I just didn't think I needed apache to handle a mirror for buildbots. | 11:09 |
| persia | twb: apache would serve my needs just fine. | 11:09 |
| twb | Then any of the above will do. | 11:10 |
| persia | Yeah :) | 11:10 |
| twb | I liked busybox httpd and thttpd because you can run them as non-root and just supply configuration on the command-line. | 11:10 |
| * persia chooses lighttpd because it says "easy to configure" in the description | 11:10 | |
| twb | e.g. thttpd -u $USER -d $PWD -p 8080 | 11:10 |
| * soren has used lighttpd quite happily in the past | 11:10 | |
| jayvee | lighttpd is quite popular, and yes, it is quite easy to configure | 11:12 |
| twb | jayvee: bah! Anything that needs a whole config *file* isn't easy. | 11:18 |
| * twb hugs dnsmasq, for example. | 11:19 | |
| larsemil | jayvee: well i have restarted the whole machine... | 11:20 |
| larsemil | jayvee: no luck today. will look into it another day but today, no luck changing it. i want my virtual machines on the same net as my physical ones | 11:30 |
| twb | larsemil: that's called "bridging" | 11:33 |
| === pts is now known as pths | ||
| jayvee | larsemil, you'll need to create a bridge that contains both your eth0 interface and your vms | 12:40 |
| jayvee | you could possibly add your eth0 to your virbr0, but then you'd better be careful to not run a dhcp server on the virbr0 | 12:41 |
| jayvee | I'm not sure how to disable libvirt's dhcp server. | 12:41 |
| === beawesomeinstead is now known as beantisocialinst | ||
| === beantisocialinst is now known as beawesomeinstead | ||
| jayvee | okay | 12:47 |
| jayvee | how the crap to I stop libvirt from messing with my iptables? | 12:47 |

| huntsville | Good Morning all. Quick question re: Ubuntu Server 9.04, "apt-get upgrade" shows several packages being held back including kernel. I'm assuming apt-get has a configuration file somewhere where its holding these files back. Any idea where?? | 13:38 |
| soren | huntsville: No, that's not how it works. | 13:39 |
| soren | Usually, they're being held back because they have new dependencies. | 13:40 |
| soren | huntsville: Try this: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 13:40 |
| soren | huntsville: ..and see if that changes things. | 13:40 |
| huntsville | soren, ah.. | 13:40 |
| huntsville | soren, see I don't want to upgrade the dist | 13:41 |
| huntsville | from 9.04 to 9.10 | 13:41 |
| soren | Nono. | 13:41 |
| huntsville | soren, I'm trying to stay on the LTS | 13:41 |
| soren | That's not what it does. | 13:41 |
| soren | 9.04 is not an LTS. | 13:41 |
| soren | ..but regardless, dist-upgrade does not upgrade you to a new Ubuntu version. | 13:41 |
| soren | Don't worry :) | 13:41 |
| jayvee | dist-upgrade just means "hey, I'm okay if you install some new packages" | 13:42 |
| soren | Pretty much. | 13:42 |
| huntsville | soren, ? I thought all .04 were LTS :) Been far too long in the RHEL server space | 13:42 |
| jayvee | as opposed to "upgrade" which is an alias for "safe-upgrade", which means "please only upgrade packages, don't install any new ones" | 13:42 |
| soren | huntsville: No. 8.04 was an LTS and 10.04 will be an LTS. | 13:42 |
| huntsville | soren, ah. | 13:42 |
| huntsville | jayvee, oh sweet | 13:42 |
| jayvee | every 2 years is the trend | 13:42 |
| soren | jayvee: apt-get has no "safe-upgrade" | 13:43 |
| soren | aptitude does. | 13:43 |
| jayvee | or is that aptitude I'm thinking of | 13:43 |
| jayvee | heh | 13:43 |
| huntsville | :-/ hmm, wondering if I should drop back to 8.04 LTS then. | 13:43 |
| huntsville | soren, jayvee, I'm trying to create an ubuntu server build standard for my org | 13:43 |
| soren | huntsville: Then 9.04 is not a good bet. | 13:44 |
| huntsville | (dist-upgrade works) | 13:44 |
| soren | huntsville: 10.04 is only a month and a half away, fwiw. | 13:44 |
| jayvee | if you have a month or two, it may be wise to wait til lucid | 13:44 |
| huntsville | hmm, I need to get a vTiger CRM up in 3 weeks. | 13:44 |
| jayvee | 8.04 then, definitely | 13:45 |
| jayvee | it's supported until 2012, I think | 13:45 |
| jayvee | or 2013, can't remember | 13:45 |
| jayvee | 5 years from 8.04, anyway | 13:45 |
| persia | April 2013 | 13:45 |
| huntsville | there is probably better package support for 8.04 too ;) | 13:46 |
| soren | jayvee: 8.04 == 2008, | 13:46 |
| soren | April. | 13:46 |
| jayvee | I know | 13:46 |
| soren | Ok. | 13:46 |
| jayvee | I just can't add 5 to 8 in my head | 13:46 |
| soren | Math is hard. | 13:46 |
| jayvee | can never remember whether it's 12 or 13 | 13:46 |
| huntsville | rofl | 13:46 |
| jayvee | seriously | 13:46 |
| jayvee | ;) | 13:46 |
| huntsville | Well thanks guys, #ubuntu was a little too crazy to answer | 13:50 |
| huntsville | Any idea where ubuntu lists their support dates for Ubuntu server? | 13:51 |
| huntsville | And is 9.xx where they first made the designation from "desktop" ubuntu and "server" ubuntu? | 13:51 |
| soren | huntsville: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrontPage | 13:51 |
| soren | No, first ubuntu server release was either 5.10 or 6.06. I forget which one. | 13:52 |

| merlijn- | hi what is the recommended kernel for ubuntu 9.10 as a Xen guest? | 15:19 |
| n8w_ | hey | 15:45 |
| n8w_ | guys, im tryin to change permissions to drop_cache file with chmod 755 but i keep gettin an error :operation not permitted | 15:47 |
| sherr | merlijn-: I guess few here run Xen now, or know the answer. | 15:47 |
| sherr | merlijn-: Have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen | 15:48 |
| sherr | merlijn-: Plus there is a meta package that might help "ubuntu-xen-server". I would guess that "recommended" is whatever the defaults are on install/update. | 15:48 |
| sherr | n8w_: you don't have perms to that file or the device it is on. Wat perms is it (ls -l) and who are you (id). A unix question really. | 15:50 |
| n8w_ | sherr: i forgot to mention that im runin it as "su" | 15:53 |
| n8w_ | sherr: thats the prob...i dont get it...ive got su access but it still says : chmod: changing permissions of `vm/drop_caches': Operation not permitted | 15:53 |

| mathiaz | cjwatson: hi - using the installer with a serial console, is it possible to access tty2-tty4 (ie open a shell in the installer or access syslog)? | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | I think you have to use the shell option on the main menu, unfortunately | 16:13 |
| larsemil | maybe i just configure virtual bridge myself instead of using the auto isntaller... | 16:15 |
| ttx | kirkland, smoser: (still on my call) I prepared https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Boto19TestCoverage to shuffle the load of formal euca2ools test coverage among the team, let me know if you have any comments. | 16:16 |
| ttx | Most commands don't have any optional parameter so it's pretty easy to validate. There are a few complex ones that will take more time, though. | 16:17 |
| sherr | merlijn-: I have to say I am also interested in Xen somewhat. This is mainly because most of my "server" hardware at work is currently a bit too old for h/w vt. | 16:19 |
| sherr | I'd like to virtualise stuff on it. Xen's the only real option. | 16:20 |
| sherr | However, Ubuntu seems a little half-hearted with Xen and support is not so good. If I was to go down this route, I'd use stock Debian (stable). | 16:20 |

| RoAkSoAx | zul, because otherwise, I'll have to do something like report['SyslogSnmpd'] = recent_syslog(re.compile('snmpd\[')) but it would be better to attach it as a separate file | 16:58 |

| qman__ | pawel__, try getting the md5sum of the CD in a desktop, it could very well be the CD-ROM in the server | 18:09 |
| qman__ | the actual CD that you burned, to ensure it was a good burn | 18:09 |
| stefanlsd | Do we have documentation on kvm and virtio for disk and network drivers? | 18:09 |
| pawel__ | qman__ i did md5sum of CD at desktop, ok so it must be CD-ROM. thx | 18:10 |

| eyci | Good afternoon. I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge on creating a working Server- Client network. | 19:28 |
| JollyMeck | Hello guys! I have a server with ubuntu 9.10 and i wonder if it is possible to somehow setup the syslog to send information to my desktop computer ? | 19:29 |
| eyci | You're not the only one waiting JollyMeck :) | 19:33 |
| eyci | Create some conversation in here, perhaps it will be noticed. | 19:34 |
| Remowylliams | Hello everyone, common question I'm sure but trying to perform the install of openssh-server fails apt-get can't find the package. | 19:36 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, ping. | 19:36 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: pong | 19:36 |
| Remowylliams | How can I install openssh-server ? | 19:36 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, what's up? | 19:36 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: just touching base with you on likewise-open on ARM | 19:37 |
| Remowylliams | I'm using Ubuntu Server 9.10 64bit | 19:38 |
| thebwt | Remowylliams: have you done an apt-get update? | 19:38 |
| thebwt | Remowylliams: my gut reaction is that you have no network connection, or no sources (nothing in your repo file) | 19:39 |
| Remowylliams | thebwt: no it wasn't in the instructions | 19:39 |
| Remowylliams | thebwt: no I'm connected. | 19:39 |
| Remowylliams | I can ping the address just fine | 19:39 |
| studio_ | can anyone help me with ssh? | 19:39 |
| thebwt | Remowylliams: kk, try doing 'sudo apt-get-update' | 19:39 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, cool. I don't know how many patches you have but You might need to rebase off the latest code. Are you working from the original likewise-open source tarball in Lucid Alpha2? or from the ubuntu-lucid git branch at git://git.likewiseopen.org/likewise-open.git ? | 19:39 |
| eyci | That looks like Remowylliams' question studio | 19:39 |
| Remowylliams | I'll try apt-get update and hope that fixes the list I update aptitude but can't find it anywhere | 19:40 |
| maxb | studio_: Please ask a more specific question | 19:40 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: the former, but it shouldn't be hard to move into your git, but I haven't had an opportunity to test likewis eat all on ARM, I just know it builds :-) | 19:40 |
| eyci | I'll reask my question:"I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge on creating a working Server- Client network." | 19:40 |
| icye | lol wut | 19:41 |
| thebwt | eyci: depends largly on the software | 19:41 |
| studio_ | well, i'm stupid, my friend said he will setup my new ubuntu box, if i can get ssh running | 19:41 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, That's more testing than I've been able to do :) | 19:41 |
| icye | hey guys whats up | 19:41 |
| thebwt | studio_: kk, 'sudo apt-get install ssh' | 19:41 |
| eyci | Server 9.10 | 19:41 |
| thebwt | should do it | 19:41 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, I'll send you mail once I push out the latest merge today. Just want to verify the PPA build first. | 19:41 |
| studio_ | done | 19:42 |
| thebwt | studio_: your friend should be able to help from there. | 19:42 |
| Remowylliams | thebwt: that should do it. Sorry I've never used Ubuntu before. Mostly FreeBSD, SCO, DEC Unix, Irix, 40 versions of other linuxi. :) | 19:42 |
| studio_ | is there a way i can test it myself? | 19:42 |
| eyci | Currently I have attempted to set up a server-client network on Server version 9.10, but have not been successful. | 19:42 |
| thebwt | Remowylliams: don't sweat it ;) Basciaclly that needs to be run to initialize the sources repository. It's usually run automatically (for security updates) | 19:43 |
| thebwt | studio_: 'ssh localhost' | 19:43 |
| thebwt | eyci: can you be more specific? What application are working with? | 19:44 |
| icye | hello | 19:44 |
| thebwt | studio_: if that asks you for your login password, it is set up and configured. If your friend has trouble connecting still, it's likey a port forwarding issue. | 19:44 |
| thebwt | icye: Hello | 19:44 |
| icye | thebwt, I'm eyci | 19:45 |
| icye | my terminal disconnected :( | 19:45 |
| thebwt | I figured | 19:45 |
| studio_ | thebwt, thanx | 19:45 |
| thebwt | ah | 19:45 |
| thebwt | studio_: always a pleasure. | 19:45 |
| icye | thebwt: "can you be more specific? What application are working with" what do you mean | 19:47 |
| davmor2 | meh do we not package the ebox-mail portion? | 19:49 |
| NCommander | BTW, does anyone here care about SPARC and have some interest to debug it? | 19:50 |
| icye | thebwt we used samba, smbclient but we are lost for the most part | 19:51 |
| thebwt | ah nvm | 19:52 |
| thebwt | i was confusing things around | 19:52 |
| thebwt | samba is fun... so you have multiple desktops to 'share' folders over samba? | 19:53 |
| icye | yes we basically are trying to set up a server/client network which allows the server to share files with the 5 clients while the clients can't send or recieve from other clients | 19:54 |
| icye | and we need to set up an application on our server which the clients can run without installing or executing on their own computer | 19:54 |
| thebwt | icye: are the clients running ubuntu as well? | 19:55 |
| icye | thebwt yes they are | 19:55 |
| thebwt | so wait, you want an application on the server, the remote machines access the servers application and run it? | 19:56 |
| thebwt | is that accurate? | 19:56 |
| icye | thebwt yes, basically, and file sharing | 19:56 |
| thebwt | ssh may be a more suitable(and simple) medium | 19:57 |
| thebwt | what does the application need to do? | 19:58 |
| icye | thebwt ok do you have any guides or walkthroughs to recommend | 19:58 |
| icye | it could be anything thebwt | 19:58 |
| Omahn | NCommander: | 19:58 |
| thebwt | icye: *nods* Well ssh is a versitule tool, first off the server needs openssh-server | 19:58 |
| Omahn | We have *tons* of SPARC kit, not sure I would be interested enough to debug it though. | 19:59 |
| thebwt | versatile* | 19:59 |
| icye | ok is there anything else we need | 19:59 |
| thebwt | nope | 19:59 |
| icye | ok how do we get it? | 19:59 |
| thebwt | you comfortable with the terminal? | 19:59 |
| icye | not very | 20:00 |
| icye | but if it's apt get I think we can figure it out | 20:00 |
| thebwt | kk | 20:00 |
| thebwt | 'sudo apt-get install ssh' on the server | 20:00 |
| NCommander | Omahn: its a failure to boot on lucid :-/. karmic is broken due to other issues, but I'm not sure what the underlying issue is specifically :-/ | 20:00 |
| thebwt | the clients don't need it | 20:00 |
| icye | ok and when we are finished with that, what's next? | 20:00 |
| thebwt | on a client, open up nautilus | 20:01 |
| icye | ok | 20:01 |
| Omahn | NCommander: I didn't realise Lucid would have any SPARC support? | 20:01 |
| Omahn | \window 2 | 20:01 |
| thebwt | in the location bar, enter "ssh://"username "@" ip address of the server | 20:01 |
| * Omahn is obviously tired and failing this evening | 20:02 | |
| thebwt | so I use "ssh://thebwt@192.168.15.15" to access my server at 192.168.15.15 | 20:02 |
| NCommander | Omahn: there's been support for SPARC since dapper(?), but its community maintained, so its not guaretted to work in any given release | 20:02 |
| icye | ok I'll give it a shot | 20:02 |
| thebwt | you'll want to set all the 'clients' up with users on the server | 20:02 |
| thebwt | and use the built in permissions | 20:02 |
| icye | is it the client username or the server username | 20:03 |
| thebwt | server | 20:03 |
| Omahn | NCommander: Ah, ok. I didn't realise it even existed. What hardware are you testing on? | 20:03 |
| NCommander | Omahn: Sunfire 120 | 20:03 |
| icye | ok is the the user name we log in with or the name we set when we setup the server | 20:03 |
| NCommander | Omahn: fairly dated box, but it gets the job done | 20:03 |
| icye | ie. the terminal name | 20:03 |
| thebwt | icye: log in username | 20:04 |
| Omahn | NCommander: Yeah, we have plenty of them, many still in production use. | 20:04 |
| thebwt | icye: that other name is 'host name' | 20:04 |
| icye | ah | 20:04 |
| Omahn | NCommander: Does any documentation exist for the SPARC port? | 20:04 |
| NCommander | Omahn: yeah, there's an official installation manual | 20:04 |
| NCommander | Omahn: CDs are sometimes flakely though, I find SILO is a real crapshoot if it works on ANY hardware when not booting from HDD | 20:04 |
| thebwt | icye: any luck? | 20:05 |
| icye | yes! | 20:05 |
| icye | omfg ty | 20:05 |
| thebwt | icye: no problem | 20:06 |
| NCommander | Omahn: if you grab one of the SPARC CDs from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com, and then burn itr and do boot cdrom, it should just start the installer | 20:06 |
| icye | so we have the file sharing, how can we use this to run applications | 20:06 |
| thebwt | icye: that depends strongly on teh application. Is it a gui application? | 20:07 |
| icye | yes but ubuntu desktop is installed on the server | 20:07 |
| NCommander | Omahn: I've only installed over serial console (no video card in my server) | 20:07 |
| thebwt | icye: kk this requires the terminal (but you can make this a script, need to elarn the commands first) | 20:08 |
| icye | thebwt we have gnome GUI installed on the server | 20:08 |
| thebwt | icye: *nods* thats great | 20:08 |
| icye | thebwt what commands will we need? | 20:08 |
| thebwt | on the client, pop open a terminal | 20:08 |
| thebwt | 'ssh' is all you need | 20:08 |
| Omahn | NCommander: I'm not onsite again until Thursday but I'll see if I can grab one of the spare boxes to do some testing. | 20:08 |
| thebwt | but | 20:08 |
| thebwt | it's already on the clients | 20:08 |
| icye | ok terminal is open | 20:08 |
| thebwt | kk | 20:08 |
| NCommander | Omahn: well, I'm trying a fresh install and upgrade, which may fix it, since karmic was completely foobar'ed on SPARC | 20:09 |
| thebwt | "ssh user@server-ip -X" | 20:09 |
| Omahn | NCommander: Remind me again, why? :-) | 20:09 |
| icye | ok do we enter that | 20:09 |
| NCommander | Omahn: bug in upstart causes it to segfault, causing init to crash and ... | 20:09 |
| NCommander | Omahn: (well, bug in libnih which upstart uses) | 20:09 |
| thebwt | icye: yes | 20:10 |
| thebwt | let me know when you're logged in | 20:10 |
| Omahn | NCommander: No, I mean why would you want to carry on using SPARC? | 20:10 |
| icye | permission denied | 20:10 |
| blackxored | how i setup a cname record in bind for a SOA pointing at google.com domain | 20:10 |
| blackxored | ??? | 20:10 |
| NCommander | Omahn: SPARC's a cool architecture :-) | 20:10 |
| thebwt | icye: did you use the server login username? | 20:10 |
| icye | yes | 20:10 |
| icye | oh another client got in | 20:11 |
| thebwt | kk | 20:11 |
| thebwt | and you have the -X on the end? | 20:11 |
| icye | yep | 20:11 |
| Omahn | NCommander: Mmmm, I think the only SPARC kit I would use today (for new systems) would be the T2 | 20:11 |
| thebwt | kk | 20:11 |
| thebwt | type 'gedit' | 20:11 |
| icye | ok | 20:11 |
| NCommander | Omahn: should be new enough for Ubuntu sparc to work | 20:11 |
| icye | its says GTK warning cannot open display | 20:12 |
| thebwt | the -X, makes sure the X is capitalized | 20:12 |
| icye | ook | 20:12 |

| thebwt | icye: though, the more I talk to you, the more I think you want a full remote login environment. Don't you | 20:15 |
| icye | ok can we apply that to something different like a game | 20:15 |

| blackxored | <blackxored> ??? | 20:17 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, I'll email you an update later today and we can work out the details,. | 20:17 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: I know relatively little about likewise itself, I just ported it as its, although its useful to have no doubt | 20:17 |
| blackxored | <blackxored> googledd4d6e####### 10800 IN CNAME google.com. | 20:17 |
| blackxored | <blackxored> doesn't seem to work | 20:17 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: thanks, I'll make sure that email also gets to other people who need to test it if thats ok | 20:17 |
| thebwt | diago: have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/CreateGuests#Example%20Windows%20install | 20:17 |
| coffeedude | NCommander, It's useful people in certain environments and irrelevant to people in others :) Like all software. | 20:17 |
| thebwt | icye: in that ssh session, type /usr/games/glchess | 20:18 |
| thebwt | icye: "/usr/games/glchess" | 20:18 |
| thebwt | w/o the quotes | 20:18 |
| NCommander | coffeedude: heh :-) | 20:18 |
| icye | And this will run the chess game? | 20:18 |
| thebwt | icye: yes | 20:18 |
| icye | What about installing a program and running it via LAN? | 20:18 |
| thebwt | you are running that via lan | 20:19 |
| thebwt | the chess game is running on the server | 20:19 |
| thebwt | and displaying on the client | 20:19 |
| thebwt | hmm | 20:19 |
| icye | I meant, running a game and having other clients also playing that game, connected together | 20:19 |
| diago | thebwt: Everything there is exactly what I have done so I'm not sure what the issue is | 20:20 |
| diago | I get this after running virt-install: Starting install... libvir: QEMU error : | 20:21 |
| heynow | hi all - can anyone confirm that this ethernet controller is compatible with 8.04 OTB HP NC107i in a Proliant DL120 G6 | 20:22 |
| diago | then it continues and says .. install in progress blah blah | 20:22 |
| icye | I'm guessing, to prove that we successfully installed and ran a program from the server, we would need some program not already installed on the other desktops, the clients. | 20:22 |
| thebwt | yup | 20:22 |
| diago | also I can't specify arch x86 for some reason | 20:22 |
| === rberger_ is now known as rberger | ||
| thebwt | diago: I recommend #ubuntu-virt (the ubuntu virtualization channel) | 20:24 |
| thebwt | diago: it sounds like qemu isn't installed or is misconfigured | 20:24 |
| diago | ok thanks | 20:24 |
| icye | We will find a program to run, but if the program has a LAN connection capability (Such as the Chess can access a server to play with other humans), would this allow us to run the game and access the LAN to play together all through the server? | 20:25 |
| thebwt | icye: no | 20:25 |
| thebwt | icye: I'm not sure how you would do that | 20:25 |
| thebwt | icye: maybe vnc would | 20:25 |
| icye | vnc? | 20:25 |
| thebwt | icye: I'm just not sure if vnc allows siumotanious connections | 20:26 |
| Pici | It can | 20:26 |
| thebwt | Pici: do you think it would do what icye is wanting? | 20:26 |
| icye | So ssh doesn't allow similtaenous connections? | 20:26 |
| thebwt | icye: hmm it is different | 20:26 |
| thebwt | icye: ssh is, but this has to do with x server (the display server) sharing. You need an abstraction over that, which vnc provides. | 20:28 |
| icye | More importantly, is there a way to have these games open from an icon, rather then having to type it in the terminal? Would that basically be changing the filepath of an icon to the filepath on the server? | 20:29 |
| thebwt | icye: that would be the script I mentioned earlier. | 20:29 |
| icye | Ahh | 20:29 |
| thebwt | icye: really though, this is all just a hack to make it work. The functionality you desire would need to be built into the application in question | 20:30 |
| thebwt | icye: for it to work well. | 20:30 |
| icye | I'm guessing the majority of games don't have this functionality built in. Do you know of any that do? | 20:30 |
| thebwt | icye: games with client-server connections, yea I know a few | 20:30 |
| thebwt | freeciv | 20:31 |
| thebwt | open arena | 20:31 |
| thebwt | hmm | 20:31 |
| thebwt | not sure beyond that | 20:31 |
| thebwt | I'm not sure I understand the full purpose I guess. | 20:31 |
| icye | These are in the repositories that we should all ready have access to, or from a webpage? | 20:31 |
| thebwt | repository | 20:32 |
| icye | how would we install one of them? | 20:32 |
| icye | just apt install openarena? | 20:33 |
| thebwt | icye: at this point you're question is no longer really server related. You should move to #ubuntu. The way to install applications is syste->admin->Synaptic package manager. Use the search function to search for the applications. | 20:33 |
| icye | Ok. | 20:34 |
| icye | That is all the questions we can think of. Thank you for your time. | 20:34 |
| thebwt | It was fun :) | 20:34 |

| \sh | jcastro: bah...it still uses sysklogd and not rsyslog ;) | 20:51 |
| jcastro | yeah whichever syslog daemon we ship by default. | 20:51 |
| \sh | rsyslog that is... | 20:52 |
| jcastro | there are likely 5 out-of-date wiki pages on wiki.ubuntu.com on the subject I'm sure | 20:52 |
| MTecknology | jcastro: the story of rapidly changing technology | 20:53 |
| \sh | hopefully when we are finished here with our solution we can write something up covering: centralized syslogging from network appliances, from ubuntu server, from tomcat application logs via log4j etc. including bringing the different logs to admins, developers and managers ;) | 20:53 |
| \sh | including: "which storage solution behind that magic box" | 20:54 |
| Kenjiro | hello there | 21:05 |
| Kenjiro | does anyone know which package should I install to get "ldap.load" on my server? (Ubuntu Server 9.10) | 21:05 |
| MTecknology | Kenjiro: aptitude search apache | grep ldap | 21:05 |
| sherr | Kenjiro: Also - search package contents here http://packages.ubuntu.com | 21:07 |
| Kenjiro | MTecknology: weird | 21:08 |
| Kenjiro | I have all those three packages installed but I still don't get ldap.load :( | 21:08 |
| Kenjiro | was that a file from an old version of Ubuntu, which was "discontinued"? | 21:08 |
| MTecknology | Kenjiro: pastebin 'ls /etc/apache2/mods-available/ | 21:09 |
| Kenjiro | http://pastebin.ca/1830653 | 21:10 |
| Kenjiro | close to that I have ldap_userdir.load | 21:11 |
| guntbert | Kenjiro: wrong directory mods-available not mods-enabled | 21:13 |
| Kenjiro | oh man... | 21:13 |
| Kenjiro | guntbert: do you have a gun? if so, please shoot me on the butt | 21:14 |
| guntbert | Kenjiro: happens to the best :) | 21:14 |
| Kenjiro | still weird. | 21:18 |
| Kenjiro | now I have ldap.load on the right place (mods-enabled/) | 21:18 |
| Kenjiro | then I try to start apache2 and it says "Unknown Authn provider: ldap" | 21:19 |
| Kenjiro | :( | 21:19 |
| MTecknology | Kenjiro: did you do a2enmod ldap? | 21:20 |
| zAfi | Hey there. I'm running ubuntu server 9.10 on the Intel D510MO with integrated Atom D510 CPU and I just can't figure it out, how to change the default governor from performance to ondemand. (/sys/dev/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq does not exist btw...) Any hints/ideas? ;) | 21:47 |
| jjohansen | zAfi: if it doesn't exist something is telling the kernel scaling is not supported | 21:50 |
| zAfi | hm...but it should... | 21:52 |

| glphvgacs | hi, ext4 on 9.10 and now lookin for a good pick of usage for / and /home | 22:45 |
| glphvgacs | should I go with large4 for both? | 22:45 |
| bogeyd6 | ext4 should be default filesystem all around | 22:50 |
| glphvgacs | bogeyd6: yes, and then I have this option during installation that I can specify usage | 22:53 |
| glphvgacs | and there I have largefiles largefiles4 news and standard | 22:53 |
| bogeyd6 | !ext4 | 22:56 |
| bogeyd6 | !filesystem | glphvgacs | 22:56 |
