[00:01] Hello [00:02] I need help converting the default LVM install to RAID0 [00:04] no one here today? [00:07] Hello people! [00:08] funkyHat, hey [00:08] Has anyone set up 2 exim servers with one configured as a "satellite"? [00:09] I think most folks recommend postfix for new setup. [00:10] I already have a complex exim setup on the "server" side (i.e. not the satellite) [00:10] And gmail is managing to authenticate with that using the same transport and auth as I've set up for my satellite [00:10] But for some reason the satellite fails to auth correctly [00:10] Ah, then the "most folks" situation doesn't apply to you :) [00:11] Anyone know how to migrate from LVM to RAID0 [00:18] If anyone has a static ip setup could you copy and paste your /etc/network/interfaces file onto pastebin for an example? [00:20] http://pastebin.org/157951 [00:20] you don't need the post-up bit [00:21] Anyone know how to migrate from LVM to RAID0 [00:21] ah, I see you have "network" listed but not "gateway" [00:23] Sp3c1alK_: You probably want to add a gateway [00:23] that network doesn't have a default gateway [00:24] what's the differnce between network and gateway? [00:24] Gateway gives you a default route. [00:24] right, but what abou8t network [00:25] Specifies the start address of the network, I'd imagine. I think it's more useful for people reading that anything else. [00:25] ah, network is required, apparetly if you're using a 2.0 kernel [00:26] It's probably legacy cruft in our case. [00:51] Anyone know how to migrate from LVM to RAID0 === RootChaos is now known as RootChaos[h] [03:48] hi guys, I have a router with no snmp agent on it... ive installed mrtg on my ubuntu server...also installed snmpd.. how can i monitor this router internet traffic? [03:49] this line doesn' [03:49] thie line doesn't have a static IP.. that's the problem [03:50] i have a virtual ppp1 interface representing this line... can i use the interface name in 'cfgmaker' to monitor it? === oubiwann` is now known as oubiwann === Sam-I-Am_ is now known as Sam-I-Am [04:23] hey all, does anyone use rtorrent with xmlrpc-c support? i'm having trouble compiling it, on the surface it seemed like everything compiled correctly but when i try to run the "rtorrent" command I get an error that makes it look like libtorrent didn't compile correctly... but i can't see why. [04:25] nvm, sudo ldconfig fixed my issue. i'd like to know why... but i'm glad it's fixed [04:46] guys, if a router doesn't have an snmp agent, can i use snmpd to create snmp traffic from that interface?.. that way mrtg can monitor it [04:47] also, this internet line doesnt have a static IP [04:47] please advise [04:51] swift, is it ubuntu-based router or some "hardware router" ? [04:52] the router is a separate hardware... [04:52] but it is represented by a virtual interface on ubuntu... [04:52] forgive my terms.. but it's just a modem... all routing is done via the ubuntu server [04:53] routing and authentication.... basically there are 2 internet lines coming from two modems... and ubuntu is the router... so, all traffice passes via ubuntu outside [04:55] I assume, it's possible to use interface name in snmpd. I don't know how (I've not deployed snmp myself yet), but I see nothing wrong with that. [04:55] ok [04:55] ubuntu server box [04:55] 8.x lts whatever it is [04:55] console only [04:55] upsmon, perl, mabye some bare bones compiling tools [04:55] what roughly should I be looking at disk space wise [04:56] basically it monitors a ups and then ssh logs into 30 hosts and executes a vmware esx/esxi or server shutdown script [04:56] I think I am around 700 meg or so so I could almost get away with 1gb flash [04:57] but need some for swap [04:57] so I dunno === Jeeves__ is now known as Jeeves_ [09:11] New bug: #566475 in mysql-dfsg-5.1 (main) "package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.37-1ubuntu5.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/566475 [10:16] New bug: #566497 in clamav (main) "logging waaaaaaaay to much (7gb too much)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/566497 [11:08] I'm sorry if its a silly question, but if i have an UEC and one of the nodes crashes entirely, what will happen to the VM's on the server? [11:21] KristianDK: Btw. I managed to get it fully working at hetzner ;) [11:22] binBASH, How!? :D [11:22] KristianDK: Just configure Eucalyptus Network setup to SYSTEM [11:22] i even spoke to them today, and asked different stuff and they just said it wasnt possible [11:22] and then I installed a dhcpd on each node [11:22] which provides the 3 additional ips [11:23] oh, then it can distribute everything? [11:23] yup [11:23] I also have vnc running for the vms [11:23] but still, if that server crashes - all of the VMs with IP from it will die, right? [11:23] nice :D [11:23] yup [11:23] all vms will get los [11:23] t [11:24] really? Isn't there any backup? [11:24] no [11:24] it's not persistent image [11:24] but why not store the data on walrus? that's distributed, right? [11:24] you can do that [11:24] that data will be persistent [11:25] Though it's slow with hetzner ;) [11:25] only 100 Mbit [11:25] yeah, but you can actually get a 1gbit router :) [11:26] yup [11:26] you just need to pay a lot more ;) [11:26] they didnt provide me with the price, however :P [11:26] I have it [11:26] how much is it? [11:26] You need flexipack for each server which is additionally 15 Eur / Month [11:26] and a 2nd nic [11:27] then you have to let them move all nodes in hetzner datacenter so they are located at each other [11:27] costs 69 Eur / Machine [11:27] lol [11:27] and then how much for the router itself? [11:29] sec, I'm searching this [11:29] ok :P [11:29] for 8 Port Gbit it's 59 Eur once [11:29] and for 24 Port it's 199 Eur once [11:30] well, its not that bad [11:30] just the relocation is bad ;) [11:30] btw, as you are mentioning the flexipack for the router - you don't use the raid controller? [11:30] yeah, but if you order the new ones together, you can request them in the same datacenter, they said :) [11:31] yup [11:31] and the rest of my servers are in RZ10 anyway [11:31] you don't use raid? [11:31] I don't have flexipack at all [11:31] I have all systems software raid 0 [11:32] each node has a secondary one for backup ;) [11:32] at least for the storage partitions ;) [11:32] hehe, ok :D [11:32] glusterfs does this [11:33] KristianDK: http://78.46.23.157/ [11:33] well, i guess software raid can do the trick too [11:33] See cherokee webserver runs on a vm ;) [11:33] nice :D [11:34] If you want details about network config per node just tell me [11:34] I'd love to have that, because I'm certainly gonna try it out :D [11:35] ok sec, I'll pastie it [11:36] awesome :) [11:36] KristianDK: http://www.pastie.org/926849 [11:37] you have to set net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf as well [11:40] ok :) btw, what is the different IPs in terms of hetzner? The .129 gateway, is this your own machine? [11:41] i gues .151 is the normal ip of the server? [11:41] yup [11:41] 160-162 are the 3 additional ones [11:42] it's possible to use those in the vms without special nat setup [11:42] ok, so you have only 4 ips in total, right? [11:42] 4 ips / Nodes [11:42] the main ip is not usable within the vm [11:43] the .151, correct? [11:45] yup [11:46] I will use it though [11:46] it's better to run varnish not in the vm for speed :) [11:47] i can understand that you are using the cloud for web projects too :D [11:48] btw - this line - what does the .129 and .129 mean? up route add -net 78.46.22.128 netmask 255.255.255.192 gw 78.46.22.129 eth0 [11:48] it's the default route which goes through the hetzner router [11:48] how would i translate this into my own setup? [11:48] but you have this line already in the config [11:49] it will be there from the beginning? [11:49] you just need to add routes for the additional ips [11:49] yup [11:49] ahh, cool :D [11:49] the br0 routes you need to add [11:49] yeah [11:51] in the br0, why is the netmask .255 in the end? [11:51] and not 192 [11:52] Well I took that myself from another tutorial KristianDK :) [11:52] hehe, ok :D just seemed weird to me :P [11:53] just can tell you it works for me like this ;) [11:53] hehe :P [11:53] what kind of web apps are you going to host btw? [11:53] gettyimages.com [11:53] and some subsites [11:54] things like gettyimageslatam.com [11:54] our company provides software for image agencies and press content providers. [11:55] ahh, cool :) [11:55] why does it say .aspx in the end of some of the files? :P [11:55] KristianDK: Well currently we host only gettyimageslatam.com from Getty Images [11:55] others will follow [11:56] ahh, ok - but the varnish is for php then? [11:56] varnish is a caching proxy [11:56] it can cache all kind of files [11:57] the goal is to setup a geoip based system which distributes content from serverclusters which are spread world wide [11:57] yeah, i know - but sometimes you can interact with it from the scripts - at some point i saw some tutorials with it [11:57] thats cool :-D [11:58] yeah, you can purge the objects from scripts for example [11:58] so it will reload the cached objects from the source [11:58] Must have for image changes ;) [11:59] hehe, yeah, i guess they would normally cache for quite some time [11:59] Don't want to serve old thumbnails when user uploaded new pic for example ; [11:59] true :P [12:00] anyway, my macbook pro is running out of battery - i'll see you around later ;) [12:00] see ya ;) [12:00] I have free day now.

I have no clue how it works and why ? what ? [15:26] ok audit is a connex service to dmesg ? [15:27] lau: the 'audit' message is generated by the kernel [15:31] ok, apparmor uses the 'audit' level message in order to log into /var/log/messages [15:31] other services may also use that kernel log level message [15:31] that is why if I suspect apparmor to create pbs, I should probably grep audit /var/log/messages [15:32] is this good a approach jdstrand ? [15:33] lau: kern.log generally-- if you log them to /var/log/messages, that would work too [15:34] lau: 'grep audit /var/log/kern.log' should help you a lot [15:43] hello, can i ask about ubuntu-server, running KVM?

[15:50] no you can't, this is fedora channel [15:50] oh, sorry, wrong channel :) [15:50] s/fedora/ubuntu/ [15:50] fallback: ok, so KVM should be bridged, while others should be nated? [15:53] several guests are in a private range in a load-balancing configuration; access should be granted from the outside using port forward to the virtual IP. Another guest running FreeBSD and DirectAdmin should be accessible directly [15:53] (because DirectAdmin demands a public IP) [15:56] ivoks: can you update the changelog in your dovecot bzr branch [15:56] changelog?

[18:56] zul: sorry I was unaware of the long log file. anyways, I got the problem fixed with the help from nerko_ and he smells a potential bug. Here's how I got it fixed: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9144875#post9144875 [18:57] hggdh, is it possible for me to modify an image and try to recreate https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/566792 ? [18:57] Launchpad bug 566792 in cloud-init "UEC guests sometimes fail on consuming user data" [Undecided,New] [19:07] zul++ [19:27] hi everyone i was reffered to here from ubuntu [19:27] i wondered if it would be possible to have qmail on ubuntu with qmail toaster [19:30] kirkland: what does '!' with red backgroun in byobu means? [19:33] smoser: yes [19:33] go ahead, the environment is set up [19:33] hggdh, cempedak? [19:33] cempedak is the CLC, yes [19:33] k [19:33] RoAkSoAx: Pending updates [19:34] Daviey: thanks! :) [19:34] np [19:34] smoser: topo2, cempedak=CLC, mabolo=walrus, marula=CC, santol=SC, (sapodilla|soncoya)=NC [19:35] hggdh, how often does this happen ? [19:35] anyone knows of an easy way to install + manage postfix mailboxes? [19:36] libertiy: well, it's linux after all, so you can run what you like, but see https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/dovecot-server.html for a good imap server [19:36] hggdh, other question, where did you get "20100419.1/UEC" [19:36] 20100419.1 is not available anywhere [19:36] smoser: last 200 runs, at least 5 times [19:36] i found out sudo apt-get install postfix it looks good i found devocot indeed :P [19:37] smoser do you want me to save the current logs before you start? [19:37] sure [19:37] libertiy: postfix works well [19:37] hggdh, i'll need instruction on how to run also [19:37] give me 10 minutes to get an image registered [19:37] i come from centos with qmail so this is something different [19:37] i hope a small challange :) [19:37] it shouldn't be very hard [19:38] when installing postfix with sudo apt-get install postfix i dont get imap with it i guess right? i need to seperatly install devocot [19:38] no, postfix is an mta, not a poa [19:39] so yes, install dovecot for mailbox access [19:39] Hi RoyK [19:40] hi, bashy :) [19:41] guys sudo apt-get install dovecot-postfix gives package not found [19:41] do i need to set a remote repository for packes in the ubuntu "rpm" manager? [19:42] RoyK: Damn, I have to migrate from qmail, to postfix at some day this week :) [19:42] im sorry if in not into the correct terms here, just wonder , i guess basic principes are the same [19:42] hehe i never had problems with qmail though binBASH [19:42] libertiy: Here it crashes on mails comming from 1/4 of all mailservers [19:43] really drives me nuts, but maybe it's caused by a plugin / patch....... [19:43] smoser: I used the base install from 20100419.1, and the UEC from 20100419 [19:43] hmm thats a shame to hear, but sometimes it can be nice to try other solutions and why not keeps you sharp ;p [19:43] libertiy: I'm using qmail since 2000 [19:43] so it's a shame for me to move :p [19:43] smoser: running the single user test is set up. I would still have to create the accounts for the multi [19:44] ah. iso 20100419 [19:44] smoser: but the single test is where I got the last failure [19:44] that makes since [19:44] why? [19:45] i havent really looked into the differences on qmail and postfix, but i guess thats a discussion for another channel [19:47] hggdh, ok. i've registered emi-27101629 [19:47] i'm sniff testing it to see that the debug output that i wanted gets printed [19:47] libertiy: qmail has a license that relegates it to multiverse [19:48] and then if so, run it in a test like yo uhave [19:49] libertiy: Like I said, maybe it's caused by a qmail plugin. I'm using qmail-spp [19:49] It has a plugin which looks up sender ips against dns blacklist [19:49] hmm i havent used that i used it very basic to host mailboxes for projects and customers [19:49] so spammers will be rejected and not accepted by the server [19:49] smoser: OK. Tell me when you are ready [19:50] ready [19:50] :-) [19:50] smoser: let's do it as 200 runs, when the error happens we can stop it [19:50] libertiy: Well I do not want to use it any longer. What I want is. Have Mails accepted by the server and put them into a SPAM folder [19:50] k [19:50] just like gmail does for exmaple [19:51] however I dunno how to configure spamassassin yet [19:52] all you need to do: cd ~/uec-testing-scripts; ./uec_test.py -c config_single.yaml [19:52] you may want to put it in the background [19:52] modify config_single for my ami [19:52] right? [19:52] dammit [19:52] yes, of course [19:52] doing it [19:52] done [19:52] smoser: What happens btw. if vms in uec are rebooted? [19:53] Will they be deleted? [19:53] no. [19:53] reboot should come back up [19:53] ok [19:53] binBASH, terminate is "go away" [19:53] smoser: then just run it as I pointed above. Results are written to ./resutls/single* [19:53] and good bye data [19:55] hggdh, was there user data provided to the instance ? [19:56] hggdh, how do i know when i see it fail ? [19:57] (you can attached to screen session there: screen -x -r smoser) [19:57] smoser: no consumer data [19:58] attached. No real errors so far (apart from instances that seem to have failed to start) [19:58] smoser: What is the best way to use local storage of the node inside the vm? [19:58] ... if network speed is only 100 Mbit [19:58] maybe local iscsi provider on the node? [19:59] binBASH, hm.. i dont know. its not really covered. [19:59] I think EBS is too slow on 100 Mbit ;) [19:59] smoser: all reschedules are instances to which we could not SSH. The script tries 4 times, I think, then considers the test a failure [20:00] smoser: a string of failures, right now [20:00] yeah. [20:01] if you want you can grep the log for the instance id, and this will return all lines written for it [20:01] hggdh, so. you see that screen, right? [20:02] (and you have a terminal larger than mine) [20:04] HI! [20:05] tring to install sun-java6-jdk package on 10.04 and getting no installation candiadte found error (multiverse is enebled in sources list, had also tried apt-get update). Any ideas? [20:06] hggdh, i can just ctrl-c ? [20:07] smoser: yes, this should be trapped by the script, and it will terminate gracefully [20:08] k [20:08] i'll modify image for more debug and try again [20:08] i updated bug [20:08] smoser: cool, thank you. [20:09] smoser: I do see the screen and I have a very large terminal [20:09] :) [20:09] :-) [20:15] RoAkSoAx: man byobu [20:16] kirkland: got it already :) thanks though [20:17] kirkland: btw... you are perl programmer to right? Do you know anything about network programming in perl? [20:19] hggdh, this is easy to debug [20:19] happens reproducibly enough [20:20] RoAkSoAx: a fair bit; did some socket programming in Perl long, long ago [20:20] yes, fortunately. What worries me is why neither Thierry, Mathias, or Dustin don't get it [20:21] hggdh: what don't i get? the oops? [20:22] hggdh, speed. [20:22] the node comes up before the metadata service is all the way up [20:23] hggdh: you are a freaking lightning rod [20:23] hggdh, i suspect that the node controllers in this system have much better IO [20:24] than kirkland ttx or my crappy laptops [20:24] so the create instance happens much faster, starts, and the metadata service isn't up yet [20:26] zul it seems I am :-( [20:27] smoser: so it is a timing issue... [20:27] i think so yeah. [20:27] and yes, these machines are fast [20:27] well, here i think its that IO is faster than cpu for this case [20:27] i'm guessing still [20:27] kirkland: by any change.. do you know if it would be possible to capture a current SSH connection with a perl app and send data through that current connection, without having to create a connection through the scritp? [20:28] RoAkSoAx, [20:28] ControlMaster auto [20:28] ControlPath /tmp/.ssh-%r@%h:%p [20:28] ? [20:29] RoAkSoAx: ^ [20:29] smoser: awesome, I'll look into it :) [20:29] RoAkSoAx, man ssh_config will tell you more about those [20:29] i have tha tin my default .ssh/config [20:31] sommer: ok cool. I'll look into it :) thanks. [20:32] s/sommer/smoser [20:35] ls [20:35] whoops, lol.. sorry [21:03] jdstrand: ping [21:03] kirkland: hi [21:03] jdstrand: can you check my last comment to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/557429 [21:03] Launchpad bug 557429 in mdadm "array with conflicting changes is assembled with data corruption/silent loss" [High,Triaged] [21:03] * jdstrand reads [21:05] jdstrand: i expect user "ceg" to come down hard on me. he always does. [21:05] kirkland: I haven't been following what it would take to fix it, but your comment seems reasonable [21:06] jdstrand: there's one part that i left unwritten .... [21:06] jdstrand: while it's easy to force this situation in a VM, i question the practicality with real hardware [21:06] jdstrand: if a real disk "dies" and "disappears", they don't often just "come back", do they? [21:08] kirkland: I tried to convey something along those lines in the release meeting last week. I don't think it is something that most people would do, but if someone removes the disk to say test the array, or remove/move around some hardware or something, if the bug hits it is devastating [21:08] kirkland: so while an unlikely event, if it happens, ouchy [21:08] jdstrand: fair enough [21:09] jdstrand: i agree that it would be fixed in an ideal world [21:09] jdstrand: but i don't think we can hack that into the mdadm's failure hooks easily [21:09] kirkland: not to mention, it is the test case in http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/ServerRAID1. if someone does that on real hardware... again, ouchy [21:10] jdstrand: how/why would someone do this on real hardware? (i'm trying to clearly understand the test case, not being pedantic) [21:10] kirkland: I'm not suggesting that we try to rush something for lucid, but it seems it should be fixed in maverick [21:10] jdstrand: excellent; if you care to +1 that analysis in the bug, that would be pretty cool! [21:11] well, no one should be doing iso testing on live machines that they have data that they care about; I do for some tests, but I recognize that I'm risking an installer bug by having it toast a wrong partition. [21:11] kirkland: boot with both disks. shutdown, remove one. boot. shutdown, put in the other one, boot. put in the first first. boom [21:11] jdstrand: right, but why would someone realistically do that? [21:11] kirkland: it isn't that far fetched that someone would do this to verify their array-- there is a reason it ended up in the test case [21:12] jdstrand: i could drop my laptop in the bathtub too, boom! [21:12] kirkland: I agree that it wouldn't happen often. I'm just saying if it did happen, it is devastating total data loss [21:12] welll, it can happen if you've got a squirrely controller. [21:13] kirkland: I think a user would expect the system to be hosed if it was dropped in a bathtub. I don't think total data loss is expected by adding back a drive [21:13] jdstrand: sbeattie: alright, thanks [21:13] jdstrand: should be fixed, Maverick issue/timeframe [21:14] jdstrand: if the fix is "contained", an SRU is perhaps meritted [21:14] that is fine be me. afaict, the issue was in karmic too [21:14] it would be nice to not have it in an LTS, so hopefully it is SRU worthy [21:14] jdstrand: yup [21:14] jdstrand: okay, thanks a bunch [21:14] kirkland: sure! :) [21:17] smoser: hggdh: okay ... ran 1000 instances on today's UEC, and uec-images: [21:17] failed: 44 [21:17] success: 949 [21:17] success_rate: 0.94999999999999996 [21:17] i'll tar up the results [21:17] please. [21:18] sbeattie: I agree about the iso testing part on a live machine. I can imagine someone trying the non-install part of the test case, to be thorough and ensure raid is working properly. on real data without backups? pretty dumb, but it shouldn't be doing this... [21:19] hggdh: where's that uec testing branch you had with some fixes? [21:19] hggdh: did you give me that in irc or in email? [21:19] hggdh: i forgot to merge that when i ran these tests [21:21] kirkland: added my +1 cent to the bug [21:22] kirkland: it was in the email, hold on a sec [21:23] kirkland: lp:~hggdh2/%2Bjunk/uec-testing-logged [21:23] kirkland|jdstrand: I have in fact suffered from a raid failure (under windows, alas) that was quite similar, due to a controller/electrical issues: disk 1 goes clicky, clicky, no spinnee; I replace disk 1 and try to sync it to disk 2; very shortly after sync starts, machine reboots; next reboot, system attempts to resync disks and decides the new disk 1 with nearly all zeros is the one to sync from. [21:24] ouchy === RoAkSoAx is now known as RoAk === RoAkSoAx_ is now known as RoAkSoAx [21:42] hggdh, can i tell it collect all console logs ? [21:42] even on success ? [21:48] smoser not as written, but this is a small change. Give me 5 [21:48] Apple SUCK: kvm-ok [21:48] INFO: Your CPU supports KVM extensions [21:48] INFO: KVM is disabled by your BIOS [21:48] HINT: Enter your BIOS setup and enable Virtualization Technology (VT), [21:48] and then hard poweroff/poweron your system [21:48] KVM acceleration can NOT be used [21:48] how the hell do I go into the bios on a MAC? [21:49] smoser: I will change it to collect *all* consoles for all instance runs. This will be a local hack right now [21:50] which is to say, do not rm uec_test.py from cempedak ;-) [21:50] yeah [21:52] hggdh, ok. i'm ready to run [22:00] hggdh, i have to run. [22:00] i would much appreciate seeing log output of this config_single run with emi-28171637 [22:00] maybe run 200 times and just collect it all. [22:00] please ? [22:00] i'll check in later [22:04] i need a simple pop imap mailserver with terminal administration to add accounts and domains and virtual hosts, its for webhosting [22:04] anyone can advise me on something? [22:04] seems to be harder then i thought and i have no php so i skipp the webinterface, a terminal session to add some accounts would be okay also [22:08] libertiy: postfix? Very good mail server, but not specially adapted for webhosting. [22:08] how about exim? [22:08] smoser: will do [22:08] ive just red that seems a good choice [22:08] else i would choose qmail but that i a bit harder on ubuntu server [22:08] just need it for some clients like 15 [22:09] all info@theres.com and need some way to easily manage adding clients and passwords without messing with 1000s of config files [22:09] libertiy: I never used exim, can't advise you on that. [22:09] what would you use then on ubuntu clrg? [22:10] libertiy: postfix [22:10] for webhosting? [22:10] else i hve to go back to centos to server but thats not handy i have to setup that all from scratch [22:11] this ubuntu imafge im on now is very clean and memory safe and secure [22:11] libertiy: As e-mail-server. I work in the hosting business as well, but we only have very large customers, for which we make individual solutions. We use postfix for alarming per mail. [22:11] just have to add the mail server to it somehow and im done [22:11] okay then postfix will be it,do you know of a way to easily manage accounts from the terminal? [22:11] since im all ruby on rails now i cannot run the postfix admin which is php [22:12] and i dont feel like installing php to my server just for postfix admin [22:12] libertiy: mostly, I use vim [22:12] just some config file editment thus ;p is that cost a lot of time? [22:12] or is it just 1 config file with the client details [22:13] liberty: It doesn't matter. Do the procedure once, then write a script which does the work for you. [22:14] liberty: Is this what you are looking for? http://postfix.wiki.xs4all.nl/index.php?title=Virtual_Users_and_Domains_with_Courier-IMAP_and_MySQL [22:15] something like that indeed but than more tailered for ubuntu with imap support ireally need that also [22:15] New bug: #566869 in samba (main) "package samba-common 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/566869 [22:15] which makes it a unpleasent task for someone tired and its late here ;p perhaps better check into it tomorrow [22:17] thats what i need sortoff clrg thx altough i dont want to use postfix webadmin since i dont host php anymore [22:17] but it could be something to look into [22:18] or zimbra but thats heavey on the memory [22:18] zimbra is also heavy on the violation of APIs in postfix. === RoAkSoAx_ is now known as RoAk === RoAk is now known as RoAkSoAx [22:34] Anyone here familar with mailman w. postfix?
