[00:01] sbeattie: Today, really. It's Thursday already. You guys are just behind. :) [00:01] that's good news... just hope our bandwidth to SA holds up with the seacom cable maintenance... we've been having poor internet access from upstream providers running mostly on seacom [00:02] soren: based on sleep patterns I'm still on tuesday. So nyah!

I know there are Kubuntu people interested in that and probably other flavors too. [04:25] RoAkSoAx: but it would be nice to drum up some community around this [04:26] ScottK: agreed; that's part of what RoAkSoAx should be doing this summer as part of his GSoC project [04:27] kirkland, of course. That's what i was thinking. That's why at first I said goals and first get a PyGTK and then the garage/car approach. [04:27] Great. [04:27] ScottK: rough story-board looks something like http://people.canonical.com/~kirkland/testdrive-wizard.html [04:27] ScottK: where the "flavor" field would be Kubuntu/Xubuntu/Mythbuntu, etc. [04:27] ScottK, you mean have a Testdrive PyQT interface? [04:28] RoAkSoAx: That would be nice, but I was starting with being able to use different flavors in test drive. [04:28] kirkland, and yes, one of the features is to be able to testdrive other flavors... that's something that Im gonna start working on right after having the modularization finished [04:28] RoAkSoAx: so if you can get PyQT going, that's great, but PyGTK comes first; I think ScottK just means getting Testdrive able to download and test other Ubuntu flavors [04:28] In line with what kirkland just pointed out. [04:28] ScottK,^^ [04:28] Yeah. [04:28] ScottK: great, we're in sync [04:28] RoAkSoAx: if your modularization goes well, bolting on a PyQT interface should be easy for someone else to contribute [04:29] ScottK, btw.. can I bother you with python code review? in a few days for advice in the way how am implementing the OO? [04:29] kirkland, yes that;s the idea... it should be possible now btw... [04:29] kirkland and RoAkSoAx: I would suggest consulting with someont like rgreening_ who worked on the USB creator split to make sure you start with a design that will be easy to add a different front end to. [04:30] He's been through it before and can give good advice on laying a foundation for expansion. === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening [04:30] yep [04:30] :) [04:30] ScottK, yeah indeed that;s why I decided proposed to modularize the code [04:31] rgreening, ok then I;ll bother you for some code review/advice then in a few days [04:31] rgreening: BTW, you pinged earlier. I'm here now. [04:31] sounds good RoAkSoAx [04:31] rgreening: excellent, you'll be at UDS? [04:31] ScottK: I figured it out. [04:31] kirkland: yep [04:32] rgreening: cool, would be nice if you could join us for a session on Testdrive then [04:32] kirkland: I'll be bugging the server guys lots while im there :) [04:32] kirkland: sure thing [04:32] kirkland: you have a blueprint up for that?

They are just built from the same seed set (unlike Ubunut/UNE) and so may not have appeared on your list. [04:34] RoAkSoAx: yeah, please converge on one [04:35] ScottK: thanks ... this was an html napkin ;-) [04:35] Sure. [04:35] kirkland, you already proposed https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/testdrive/+spec/server-maverick-testdrive-frontend-gsoc so, I guess we should have everything in there instead of the one in https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/testdrive-gtk/+spec/server-maverick-gsoc-testdrive-frontend [04:35] ScottK: i'm going to try and get IS and the cdimage guys to give us a good manifest [04:35] I suggest drop the gtk [04:36] to remain FE agnostic :) [04:36] RoAkSoAx: yes, please just make sure there's just one blueprint [04:36] rgreening, the gtk is part of the GSoC project [04:36] RoAkSoAx: move all the pertinent info to one [04:36] RoAkSoAx: subscribe me to it [04:36] ah [04:36] RoAkSoAx: mark the other one "superceded" [04:36] okies [04:36] rgreening, but the modularization will allow us to have the other front ends [04:36] kirkland, will do [04:36] cool [04:36] rgreening: yeah, RoAkSoAx is tasked with putting a GTK frontend on it for Google Summer of Code [04:37] rgreening: in doing so, he's modularizing it such that another FE can bolt on easily [04:37] rgreening: we're interested in your advice/review of that [04:37] well, I may be able to help getting a qt/kde up and running [04:37] yep [04:37] rgreening: and if you want to put together the qt FE in parallel, that would be great ;-) [04:37] awesome then :) [04:37] testdrive rules :) [04:37] heh [04:38] rgreening: ;-) sweet, thanks. i find it very useful [04:38] rgreening: and it warms my heart to hear that it's useful to someone else [04:38] me 2 [04:38] yeah. 1 line to launch a vm.. I run for coffee while it syncs :) [04:39] rgreening: saved me many, many hours this release cycle, doing ISO testing [04:39] was *way* worth the couple of hours it took to write [04:39] kirkland: we need to figure out how to integrate checkbox into it to automate testing :) [04:39] rgreening: and the secret agenda is that it gets people using and testing KVM without really knowing it ;-) [04:40] rgreening: kvm-autotest is how ;-) [04:40] heh. tru dat [04:40] It's not a secret if you tell us [04:40] shh...

[04:57] one of the vpn sw supports the cisco client iirc [04:57] not vpnc though I think [04:57] Awesome, there's also openconnect, which has a Description that talks about a *different* Cisco VPN protocol [04:58] rgreening: I did aptitude search ~dcisco~dvpn [04:59] twb: network-manager-vpnc ? [04:59] twb: Cisco vpn has a few varieties... [04:59] jpds: presumably that's a wrapper for people dumb enough to run NM [04:59] did customer provide any settings/options required? [05:00] rgreening: there's some auth details further down the page. [05:00] vpnc may do it.. depending on requirements [05:03] Oh, and they gave me a .pcf file, which is probably the equivalent of openvpn's cert files. [05:03] possibly [05:03] Haha, no, it's just an ini file [05:03] I hate customers [05:03] lol [05:05] Grr, why doesn't thttpd Just Work [05:06] Because some clown set ENABLED=no in it's /etc/default/thttpd file [05:08] Hm, looks like the QA team did it (#142306). [05:08] hey all. i'm trying to run mpd and it segfaults whenever it starts to play a song... [05:14] Play a different song, then? [05:14] lol if it was only that simple. it's not just one song [05:15] i haven't been able to get it to play one song. i've tried at least 20 [05:18] Are you running mpd in the foreground? [05:18] not currently, but i've used the --verbose and what is it, --no-damon or something? i believe it just ends. i see the segfault in my /var/log/messages tho. [05:19] Ideally you want to know what it does BEFORE the segfault [05:20] Though if I were you I'd probably just say "bugger it, let's use xmms2" [05:20] lol really? [05:20] can i connect to xmms2 with many different clients? and i'm assuming it's a console-based player? [05:21] xmms2 is a modular mpd [05:21] i really did love mpd on my old ubuntu-server. [05:21] whatever it was up to, i guess it was 9.10 before i blasted it all away and installed 10.04 fresh. [05:22] all i really want is a music server with a small footprint that just runs as a service... and i need to be able to control it from many different clients [05:23] Shrug. Your two choices there are mpd and xmms2, and I don't care enough to help you debug the former. [05:24] i thought xmms2 was just really a self contained player [05:27] hrm. that's unfortunate. i don't understand why it would segfault on libavcodec.

Does anybody work with this one? [08:40] artemglusankov: it appears to be in the repository. [08:52] From Karmic onwards, there's no qemu, only qemu-kvm. [08:52] What am I supposed to do if I can't use KVM, and installing the kvm package (which modprobes kvm without asking) causes the kernel to hang completely, due to it fighting with vmware? (And management won't let me remove vmware.) [08:53] <_ruben> file a bug i assume [08:53] I was afraid of that :-/ [08:54] For qemu 0.11, I rolled Debian's package into a ppa backport (for hardy). [08:54] Now I need 0.12, so looks like I'll be doing that again [08:54] <_ruben> does blacklisting the kvm modules help? not sure if blacklisting works for modprobe invokations though [08:54] I'm a bit scared to try that on a production machine [08:54] <_ruben> that's what test setups are for ;) [08:55] I can't afford the $300 for a second VT CPU [09:07] twb: You can blacklist the kvm modules. [09:07] twb: The upstart job should respect that. [09:07] soren: hardy doesn't use upstart much :-) [09:08] twb: Well, you could just comment out the call to modprobe. [09:08] But any call to modprobe will honour blacklists in modprobe.d [09:08] I forget if the init script passed -b to modprobe in Hardy. [09:08] <_ruben> twb: but hardy isnt "karmic onwards", so now i'm confused :) [09:08] It's been a while, after all :) [09:08] twb: No. [09:08] twb: Only if you pass -b. [09:09] Sorry, by blacklist I mean "install foo /bin/true" or so, not "blacklist foo". [09:09] _ruben: sorry, I'm stuck on hardy but I want (to backport) qemu 0.12. [09:10] twb: Anyways, commenting out the call to modprobe is perfectly acceptable as well. init scripts are conffiles as well. [09:10] <_ruben> twb: ah [09:10] soren: yes, but less reliable if some OTHER part of the kvm package tries to modprobe. [09:11] I'd at least have to use policy-rc.d to prevent it doing it at install time, before I could get to the init script to edit it. [09:11] Not that it matters much... [09:15] I didn't think just loading the modules caused problems. I thought it wasn't until you actually ran some virtual machines things started to go South. [09:17] Oh, sorry, I just remembered [09:17] It's not kvm + vmware, it's kvm + openvz that makes it hang [09:17] Or possibly all three together [09:18] I just like to blame vmware because it's proprietary [09:23] erichammond, stuff is on its way up to ap-southeast-1 [09:23] smoser: Sweet!

[09:45] Consider what would, today, be a five-year-old machine. It's probably PATA or SCSI, DDR1, and a Pentium 4 or so. You would have to pay MORE for spare parts than to buy a whole new machine three times faster. [09:46] Oops, ignore me completely. I read "20 users" as "20 years" [09:46] ;) [09:46] Because 64GB is pretty overkill for most applications of a twenty-user system [09:47] well, we are replacing an about-9-year-old machine, for which the original admin is long gone [09:47] oh, for an average user [09:47] we will be doing computations which require 4GB+ memory [09:47] File sharing, printing, and mail would only need 1GB [09:47] Ah, OK [09:48] almost a cheap, home-blown HPC [09:48] Nod [09:48] we're considering a queuing system if some users were too agressive on the processor time [09:50] I am looking for a guide to help with such stuff like user quotas, hooks on user creation, packages considered as a must-have [09:50] Some of that is just ulimits [09:51] ok [09:52] among others, there would be: LAMP, ssh, ftp, svn, bzr and mathematic packages on FORTRAN and Matlab [09:53] janislaw: /etc/security/limits.conf [09:53] could you recommend http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/ [09:53] Hmm? [09:54] twb: /etc/security/limits.conf is exactly what I need for the start [09:55] limits.conf is basically the default values; the sh "ulimit" builtin allows users to voluntarily restrict themselves further. [09:55] For disk quotas, you want the "quota" package, which requires some extra setup.

[11:39] "cloud servers" [11:40] the big differenc between a "cloud server" and a normal VPS is that you have an api to spawn and terminate servers and it happens in minutes [11:41] ...and you pay for it in small units like by the hour. [11:42] thats crap :( [11:42] its hardly really a cloud is it [11:43] if someones going to offer me some cloud service, i expect scalability to be automagic [11:43] like appengine [11:43] echosystm: then perhaps you have to rethink your definition of a cloud service [11:44] echosystm: There is no widely accepted definition of "cloud" so it is difficult to say what is and isn't "cloud". EC2 = "Elastic Compute Cloud" and is one of the few services which self proclaimed "cloud experts" would never say is "not cloud". [11:45] the whole idea of the word "cloud" is that you just throw your app out there and it somehow just works [11:45] thats hardly what EC2/rackspace/ etc. provide [11:45] lol [11:45] but anyway [11:45] echosystm: You're free to add your own definition of cloud to the mess :) [11:45] i guess i got my answer, thanks guys:) [11:46] echosystm: np ;) [11:46] echosystm: ec2 does offer autoscaling [11:46] yeah, but its like scaling one VPS, isnt it? [11:47] as opposed to having your app automatically deployed to multiple servers [11:47] scalability is never going to be automagic. [11:47] it is on app engine [11:47] It may be easier, but if you want a scalable system, you have to design for it. [11:47] echosystm: you can have your app automatically deployed to ec2 instances [11:48] app engine you just upload to one place, and google works out where best to put it [11:48] echosystm: yeah but app engine has other big limitations [11:48] true [11:50] echosystm: just use the tool that fits best, but just because you can hardly put a nail in the wall with a screwdriver, the screwdriver istn't bad by design [11:52] <\sh> application scalability has nothing to do with the underlaying server...app engine just works like a simple web host .. if they wouldn't have shared storage and shared session management for the apps it wouldn't work as expected... === zorzar is now known as zorzarAway === swift__ is now known as swift [12:24] ok guys [12:25] ubuntu server has 5 years [12:25] but desktop only has 3 [12:25] (LTS, i mean) [12:25] is it like a subset of the repo has 5 years, while the rest has 3? [12:25] or what [12:25] because ubuntu and ubuntu server obviously use the same repo [12:25] i dont get it [12:26] Yeah, it's a subset of the repo is on a three year support cycle. [12:29] that sucks :( [12:29] echosystm: why? [12:29] would have been nice to have the whole repo on that support cycle [12:30] sometimes on servers you need to install gnome and so on [12:30] it's not like those packages will be removed [12:30] yeah but they wont get security updates [12:30] cant have that [12:31] I have never found a decent reason to install gnome on a server. [12:31] What about "to convince $boss the hardware is too slow" [12:32] "Gee, boss, look, after I installed tomcat, we get OOMed every few minutes" [12:32] "Maybe you should give me $30 to upgrade to 1GiB of RAM" [12:36] small business lil_cain [12:36] they want a GUI [12:36] use a web thingy [12:37] !ebox [12:37] ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox [12:37] echosystm: rather, they THINK they want bug-for-bug compatibility with MS SBS === zorzarAway is now known as zorzar [13:04] zul: good game last night ;) [13:05] pmatulis: i didnt watch it....hockey season is over [13:05] zul: ha ha === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === 17SAAL2LM is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as 17SAAL2LM === 17SAAL2LM is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [14:56] Hello... how do i make a ftp server where its possible to give directory permissions to different users/groups? [14:56] like an ACL kinda thing === Guest13577 is now known as peterlh [14:57] i cant seem to find any ftp server that does that on linux? [14:57] you're talking virtual users and permissions? pretty sure proftpd will do what you want [14:58] yes virtual users [14:59] iam using pureftpd-mysql now [14:59] but that can handlt it [14:59] handle [15:00] can't vsftpd do that (as that's the default FTP server for Ubuntu)? [15:05] trying to nfs export a directory with a bind mount within it...the export works and I can see everything in the directory but when I look in the folder that contains the bind mount it's empty. Is it possible? Why doesn't it work? http://paste.ubuntu.com/424618/ [15:27] hi there [15:27] i'm using mdadm to create a raid1 array over two hdds [15:28] it all works fine until i reboot, the array is not automatically reloaded [15:28] am i missing something obvious here? === oubiwann is now known as Wooster_ === Wooster_ is now known as oubiwann [15:34] what does your mdadm.conf say ? [15:35] where is mdadm.conf normally stored? [15:35] i dont have it on an ubuntu box, but debian has it at /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf [15:35] the man page on there shows how to generate a new one [15:35] ok, cheers, i think i may of overlooked this step [15:35] mdadm --examine --scan --config=mdadm.conf [15:35]
