[01:32] <VSpike> This is the iptables setup on my nat gateway + squid server. http://pastebin.com/xy2EZetR
[01:32] <RoAkSoAx> i have played little with dnsmasq so i dont think i can help you with that
[01:33] <VSpike> can anyone tell me what I need to do to forward an external port to a specific machine/port on the private lan?
[01:35] <agentk> An example for my firewall: iptables -A PREROUTING -s ! 192.168.0.0/16 -i ppp+ -p tcp --dport 25 -j DNAT --to-dest 192.168.1.23
[01:36] <agentk> VSpike: It's very similar to your squid redirect. That what you were asking?
[01:37] <VSpike> agentk: i think so .. thanks.. let me pick it apart with iptables doc :)
[01:38] <agentk> VSpike: No prob. Mine's been made fairly specific the the system here. Basics are: PREROUTING <match rules> <action rule>
[01:39] <agentk> VSpike: Another example with port redirection too: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING  -i ppp+ -s 192.168.0.0/16 -d ! 192.168.0.0/16 -p tcp --dport 80   -j DNAT --to-dest 192.168.1.1:8081
[01:44] <VSpike> agentk: that second one redirects outgoign traffic on port 80 to 192.168.1.1:8081 ?
[01:45] <VSpike> except it says in interface is ppp+ which seems to be the WAN
[01:46] <agentk> VSpike: It's for traffic comming in over a vpn in through ppp0 and ppp1 to be sent to a squid machine
[01:47] <VSpike> source is local network, destination is not local network.  that seems to be a contradiction, so i'm probably missing some.... ah!
[01:47] <VSpike> vpn of course
[01:48] <agentk> I start with the broadest match rules that work, and narrow them down until it still works and gets closest to the match I need.

[06:18] <MTeck-ricer> a move like losing everything except /var, /home, /etc, and /usr
[06:19] <rcsheets> so um ... /var, /home, /etc, and /usr have pretty much all your data in them, typically
[06:20] <MTeck-ricer> i was backing up those, but toasted the system

[06:20] <MTeck-ricer> rcsheets: those partitions are what I kept
[06:20] <MTeck-ricer> everything else is gone
[06:21] <rcsheets> if this was just a database server, i'd suggest installing ubuntu server on a different machine, installing mysql there, and then restoring /etc/mysql and /var/lib/mysql to the new box, and see if it works ok

[14:46] <gzur_> Hi - I'm running Ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS and can only access it via SSH. A technician connected an external drive to my server yesterday and I'm having trouble mounting it.
[14:47] <gzur_> Can I disconnect/reconnect the external drive somehow via SSH?
[14:47] <gzur_> Since I don't have physical access to the server itself.
[14:50] <gzur_> maybe a reboot would do the trick?
[14:50] <gzur_> trying that now :)
[14:52] <joschi> gzur_: what kind of drive? does your kernel have the necessary drivers and are they loaded?
[14:52] <gzur_> it's an NTFS usb drive
[14:55] <gzur_> it comes up in fdisk -l as   HPFS/NTFS
[14:55] <joschi> gzur_: make sure the ntfs module is loaded
[14:56] <gzur_> how can I make sure?
[14:56] <joschi> gzur_: and then just mount the appropriate partition
[14:56] <joschi> gzur_: check the loaded modules with `lsmod`
[14:56] <joschi> gzur_: and load ntfs with `modprobe` if it hasn't been loaded yet
[14:56] <gzur_>  lsmod | grep ntfs gives bubkiss
[14:56] <gzur_> can I install it through apt?
[14:57] <joschi> gzur_: it should be part of linux-image
[14:57] <joschi> so you don't need to install it seperately
[14:57] <gzur_> so I only need to activate it?
[14:57] <gzur_> doesn't it get activated automatically if I try to mount an NTFS drive?
[14:58] <joschi> try it...
[15:00] <gzur_> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/EJB9vzuN
[15:00] <gzur_> looks like a problem with the drive
[15:00] <gzur_> which is weird, I was copying onto it from windows yesterday morning

[22:31] <nicodarious> evening all
[22:32] <nicodarious> anyone on here that knows much about automated backups by chance?
[22:33] <nicodarious> been trying to set up a dual hdd system for my parents.  I'm having a bit of trouble trying to set up a backup system while trying to keep it simple for them (since I won't be there for tech support).  Been trying to work with dd, rsync, and such, but I can't find an easy way to set up an automated backup to the secondary drive.  Anyone have some ideas?
[22:41] <sherr> nicodarious: You've installed ubuntu-server for your parents? :-)
[22:41] <nicodarious> no, it's only the desktop version.
[22:42] <nicodarious> but I am sure that I can install the necessary programs in order to create a type of 'server' for them.
[22:42] <sherr> OK, this is the server channel, so it's a bit off-topic. But what sort of problems have you had?
[22:42] <nicodarious> I'm just trying to make a complete copy of one drive to another, then set the second into standby until the first drive fails.
[22:43] <nicodarious> well, the reason why I came here is because this is a little more of setting up a server rather than a regular desktop.
[22:43] <sherr> What about RAID-1 mirroring?
[22:43] <nicodarious> well, thought of that, but I have had, in my time, noting but trouble with setting up RAID1.
[22:44] <sherr> You can sort that out at install time.
[22:44] <sherr> It's very smooth usually today.
[22:44] <sherr> Alternatively - clonezilla can create disk images. Maybe that can be automated - but at least a "snapshot" of an install.
[22:45] <nicodarious> not only that, but both drives would be used all the time.  I'm trying to conserve one drive as a 'storage' backup drive, so if the primary fails, the secondary has a complete system that was created by a cron job or something.
[22:45] <sherr> If one drive fails ... sounds like your want RAID really :-)
[22:45] <sherr> Anyway - alternatives :
[22:45] <nicodarious> well, here's what I have run into so far.  I have tried using 'dd' to make an image of sda to sdb.  this works great... all except for one problem.  it also copies the uuid info
[22:46] <sherr> clonezilla (image), rdisk-backup, backup-pc (gui), bacula (maybe too complex) ...
[22:46] <sherr> Lots of options.
[22:46] <sherr> Alternatively, a cronjob that does an rsync at 04:00 hrs
[22:47] <nicodarious> at boot time, grub gets confused sometimes and / might be sda /boot may be sdb and /home may be sdb.....  sometimes, it's all confusing.  what I am thinking is if there's some way to inplement into my cron job for dd, some way to change the uuids on sdb partitions?
[22:48] <sherr> nicodarious: grub gets confused? Use labels or UUID's for grub and fstab ... grub should never be getting confused nowadays.
[22:48] <sherr> What OS/version are you talking about?
[22:48] <nicodarious> sherr, that's what i though also. but with sdb and sda having the 'exact' same info, including uuids, it's kinda interesting.
[22:48] <nicodarious> sherr, i'm trying to set up Ubuntu 9.10.
[22:49] <nicodarious> tried arch (since that's what i personally run on all my machines, but the problem was even worse)
[22:49] <sherr> If you want to have this sort of redundancy, use RAID-1. Else - clone a snapshot after install (perhaps).
[22:50] <sherr> Then forget aboyt sda,sdb,uuids etc. just rsync form 1 or more filesystems (/,/home etc) to the backup (/mnt/backupdisk)
[22:50] <sherr> Anyway, this is #ubuntu-server, so off-topic ... and I'm off to bed :-)
[22:50] <sherr> Good luck
[22:51] <nicodarious> hmm...  ok, thanks, but I thought this might be right up this channels ally.  thanks anyway.
