dominicdinadamininessie: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso00:07
ziesemer_I think the question being asked is how to install / use the server version of the kernel on a previous (desktop) install?00:08
viezerdaptitude has an option "-d" to download only00:08
dominicdinadato reinstall iptables    sudo aptitude reinstall iptables00:12
dominicdinada?00:12
ScottKmininessie: There isn't an i386 server kernel anymore.  Use generic.00:12
mininessieziesemer_: correct00:12
mininessieScottK: okay i just want the best kernel type00:13
dominicdinadaOrville Reddenboker type ? =)00:13
JanCmininessie: install linux-server00:15
JanCmininessie: but best kernel might depend on what you want of your system00:16
mininessieJanC: well i'm running mac i want the best graphics sound and battery life00:16
ScottKProbably not on a server though00:17
JanCmininessie: that doesn't sound like a server00:17
mininessieJanC: which one does it sound like00:18
JanCwell, I have no servers witrh graphics, sound or a battery really  ;)00:18
qman__my servers have batteries, but not internally00:29
qman__no graphics, no sound00:29
qman__the server kernel is not going to be tuned for the best performance of those things00:29

ubottuUbuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.00:51

iclebyteany known issues with bridging of a KVM host controlled by libvirt on 9.10 server?01:22
ziesemer_I have a virtual machine (in VirtualBox) that I installed lucid (desktop) into.  I then installed linux-image-virtual , which is apparently based on server - and apparently even uses the same headers.  However, after rebooting, I get "Giving up waiting for a root device", and it drops to a BusyBox root shell.01:23
iclebytei can get to the host from the guest via the bridge but i can't seem to get out any further than that01:24
iclebyteit's had me for 3 days01:24
ziesemer_It notes that /dev/disk/by-uuid/... doesn't exist.  Sure enough, I have /dev/disk/by-path, but I don't even have a by-uuid folder.  Rebooting using the old generic kernel works just fine.  Ideas?01:24
mannyvi just  installed lucid server with the os on a raid1 with lvm and it will not boot. I am getting the error no init found abda busybox prompt01:25
mannyvcan anyone help with this?01:27
gauravkHello, all, I had a question about partitioning. I have a few internal HDDs that I want to set up as samba shares that are going to contain media. I was wondering where I should mount them (I'm installing Ubuntu-server now).01:28
iclebytegauravk, under /media seems to be the general ubuntu convention.01:29
iclebytetraditionally it would have been under /mnt/01:29
iclebytebut this is 2010 - so /media/ it is.01:30
gauravkOkay, sounds good, thanks for the help.01:30
iclebytenp.01:31
ScottKziesemer_: My suggestion would be use the kernel that works.01:46
kaushalhi01:46
ziesemer_ScottK:  Yeah - but I want to get it working / know why.  :-)  It's just a trivial VM, so even if I loose it - no big deal.01:46
ziesemer_I did find that there is not even a /dev/sd0 or /dev/hd0 - so thinking a driver issue.01:47
ScottKNo idea.  Sorry.01:47
ziesemer_Maybe linux-image-virtual has too few drivers.  :-)01:47
ziesemer_I'll try linux-image-server just for kicks.01:48
kaushalI get this http://fpaste.org/cyhT/ on the console of Ubuntu Linux 8.04 server01:48
kaushalPlease suggest01:48

datzhi, I'm actually using xubuntu, but the box has no monitor.. I'd like to get the latest kernel update, but apt-get upgrade doesn't do it. Can anyone lend me a hand?03:01
qman__datz, use apt-get dist-upgrade03:01
qman__'upgrade' will not install new packages or remove old ones, only upgrade in place03:01
qman__updating your kernel requires the installation of new packages03:02
qman__which dist-upgrade will do03:02
datzah... humm.. that will not move me from say.. 9.10 to 10.04 though, will it?03:02
ziesemer_I _think_ you need do-release-upgrade for that to happen.03:03
datzok, I'll try dist-upgrade and see what happens.. thanks guys03:04
qman__yes, dist-upgrade will not do a release upgrade03:04

mbtHi, is there some reason that upgrading from hardy server to lucid server isn't working?  "sudo do-release-upgrade" says "no new release found" when I run it on an 8.04.3 box04:59
qman__IIRC, you need to update first04:59
mbtThat's already been done; it's fully up-to-date04:59
qman__and 8.04.3 is not the latest 8.0404:59
mbtOh, sorry, I typed the version wrong; it is 8.04.405:00
qman__ok05:00
qman__in that case, I'm not really sure05:00
qman__I haven't tried any yet myself05:00
qman__and I don't know what it uses to determine if there are new releases05:00
mbtyeah, it's as if lucid wasn't an LTS05:00
qman__other than running sudo apt-get update to get the latest lists05:00
mbtInterestingly enough, if I 'sudo do-release-upgrade -d' it finds lucid.  But it shouldn't require the -d, correct?05:02
ScottKmbt: The recommendation for hardy to lucid upgrades is to wait for 10.04.1, so it's not being offered as a regular upgrade yet.05:03
ScottKWhat you are seeing is what is currently correct.05:03
mbtScottK: Oh, okay.  I thought the -d was for development05:04
ScottKIt is.05:04
jturekmbt, you need to edit the "/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades"05:04
ScottKContinuing to use it this way is overloading it slightly, but it has the right effect.05:04
jturekand set Prompt=normal05:04
ScottKjturek: No.  He doesn't.05:04
mbtColor me confused.  :-)  I will just use the -d switch then.05:04
mbtThanks much!05:05
ScottKmbt: Please be sure to file bugs on any upgrade issues you see.05:05
jturekif he installed desktop instead of server when he started...05:05
mbtScottK: No problem.05:05
jturekScottK, sorry, its what I had to do to go from a LTS release to another release05:06
jturekmy release-upgrades file was set to "none"05:06
ScottKsudo do-release-upgrade -d05:06
yaboowhats the best ubuntu howto doc to setup a firewall so i call allow machines in the network surf out to the net?05:08

mannyvif anyone has any idea I am trying to boot a raid1 array in lucid and it keeps failing claiming it cannot find /dev/md005:12
mannyvit can find /dev/md1 but not /dev/md0 for some strange reason05:12
yabooshould i use ufw?05:23
ScottKyaboo: For a firewall, that's the standard one for Ubuntu.05:24
dominicdinadalol05:29
* ScottK can't say much more than that. I've got my own iptables scripts that work for me, but that I wouldn't recommend for anyone else.05:30
dominicdinadaScottK:  My hostname is listed as blah-trvue0uir   when i check nslookup but I cant seem to find out where it is stored :/ /etc/hostname looks correct05:30
dominicdinadaScottK: i was laughing if he enabled the firewall on and all of a sudden lost all outbound traffic05:31
ScottKI'd try sudo grep -r blah-trvue0uir /etc/*05:31
dominicdinadacan I use a wildcard search in for the name because it is blah-   but then random characters maybe I was tired when I wiped this machine the last name05:32

kaushalis there a mailing list of ubuntu kernel ?06:20
ScottKCheck lists.ubuntu.com.06:21
yaboocan't believe samba is bjorked on ubuntu, might compile my own version06:26
mbtScottK: My upgrade went okay. The only bumps were on some /etc/init.d things that I customized that don't exist there anymore, so I had to port the changes to the upstart jobs06:44
CaptainTrekwhere's the Apache mod_security thing located at?  what package(s)06:50

The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.11:40
twbBleh, that page tells people to use -L instead of iptables-save.11:41
dominicdinadatwb: L is to list11:43
dominicdinadai thought it saves it right away11:43
dominicdinadayaboo: sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.4 to any port 22?   <~ an example to allow specific ips on ports11:44
RoyK22/tcp11:44
dominicdinadawell ya if you want to be really specific mine is behind routers :) so i get time to harden it11:45
twbdominicdinada: iptables -L is a single-table, non-machine-readable, lossy output format.11:47
twbdominicdinada: iptables-save emits a comprehensive dump of all loaded tables, in a format that can be read back in.11:47
dominicdinadaya it is how to better real it11:47
dominicdinadaoh ok11:47
dominicdinadadefault in etc?11:48
twbCertainly for anything more than trivial -s/-d/--dport, I find it easier to read iptables-save than -L.11:48
dominicdinadawell any how i killed my network a few times today but ahhh well11:49

MkoolsHi, I am using tomcat6 can someone tell me what does this means: Attribute name "docBase" associated with an element type "Context" must be followed by the ' = '18:51
MkoolsI am also getting unable to connect with: http://127.0.0.1:8080/18:55
mcasMkools: did you edit a config file before this error?19:14
Mkoolsmcas: Yes.19:15
mcashave you changed the docBase path?19:15
Mkoolsmcas: Actually I am trying to add a virtual host on it. For that I have created a docBase path. Would you like to review my server.xml19:22
mcasyes could you pleaase post it to a pastebin service?19:22
Mkoolsmcas: Before you review I would like to tell you that I am trying to use dns server( which I have configured with bind9) to use with tomcat6.19:24

Mkoolsmcas: Now tomcat is running on 192.168.0.1 which is the ip of my dns.19:48

dominicdinadaIf I plug a usb external hard drive into my server I will have access to it correct? transfering 50 gigs over the network is well time consuming19:49
Mkoolsmcas: Can you please tell me what should be the path set for docBase and context element in server.xml?19:50
Mkoolsmcas: Basically I am lot more confused about path structure used in tomcat19:51
mcasMkools: i would try path="" and docBase="ROOT"19:51
mcasdominicdinada: yes should work19:51
mcasdominicdinada: you should first check if you "see" the usb hard drive with dmesg and then mount it manually19:52
dominicdinadaOk after this 3 gb transfer is done ill give it a shot... then I am gonna break my server for the 4th day in a row :P19:52
dominicdinadamcas: will do19:52
mcasdominicdinada: i don't think pluging in an usb hard drive will break your server ;-)19:52
Mkoolsmcas: What's your opinion on port, i.e. because dns uses 53 and it is using I think 8080. If I need to edit the port then where do you think the it should be done in server.xml19:53
mcasMkools: there should be no problem with ports while running your bind and tomcat on the same host19:53
dominicdinadamcas: No but when I go to follow through the steps to turn the server into a WIFI-access point well it messes everything up... Alone I cant even get the server to set statically :(19:53
mcasstatically?19:54
dominicdinadaStatic ip...19:54
dominicdinadaI set it to what it should be....19:54

mcasok than this is your tomcatdir20:18
Mkoolsmcas: Then how to remove this extra :8080 in the URL20:19
Mkoolsmcas: Because I thing rest of the things have been done.20:20
\shMkools, you want to use tomcat as webserver? you can just get rid of the port 8080 when you remove the port number and change it to 80 in the web connector in server.xml20:21
\shbut then you need to start tomcat6 as root, which is bad20:21
\shtherefore you should think about using apache2 + mod_jk and using ajp3 connector on tomcat6 side20:22
mcasyou can use iptables and portforwarding20:22
Mkoolsmcas: More about it. Links?20:22
mcashttp://www.klawitter.de/tomcat80.html20:23
Mkoolsmcas: Is it the only solution besides that of apache.20:24
\shMkools, you can use tomcat6 as standalone webserver, but it's not recommended, because of speed, and security20:25
\shapache is the better way..20:25
\shand much better to scale20:25
mcas\sh what about running apache as a reverse proxy for tomcat? could this be a solution?20:25
Mkools\sh: Ok thanks but I am really running out of time.20:26
mcasi think you have more experience with tomcat ;-)20:26
\shmcas, yes, but then you have a one to one connection to your tomcat...which is the same as running it as standalone20:26
\shusing mod_jk gives you NxAJP channels which performs much better20:26
mcasok20:26
\shmcas, on one apache that is...(you could use lighty as well woth a ajp modul)20:27
Mkoolsmcas: \sh: thanks for your help I will talk to you later can you give me your appointments on the IRC. Because I live in India.20:27
\shmcas, oh well...I'm not an expert...but we are running 4 frontend apaches and behind them are 30 tomcats :) and the apaches are not the bottleneck ;)20:28
MkoolsThe people in US have time zone problems.20:28

RoyKin zfs there is a zero intent log (zil) that can be placed on an SSD to speed up things - does ext[234] have something like this?20:48
penguin42RoyK: You can put the journal from ext* on a separate device20:51
RoAkSoAxkirkland, ping?20:51
RoyKpenguin42: is that similar to the zil? as in - things are written there first and then flushed?20:52
penguin42RoyK: I think so, but I don't know much about the zil20:52
RoyKare data written to the ext[34] journal and then flushed?20:53
mcasRoyK: i cannot tell you the exact function of ext[34] but puttin the journal on a different device speeds things up20:56
RoyKtoo bad btrfs is (still) late21:05
RoyKit'd be nice to run linux on some high-volume boxes here, but now we're on osol for them21:05
_Trullojust added 2 drives to my server, do I have to add them to fstab to get them mount each time I start the server?21:08
JanCRoyK: does it write to the disk in a location mapped as belonging to the journal and when it succeeds, moves that location to the main diskspace?21:08
penguin42_Trullo: Probably21:08
mcas_Trullo: yes21:08
_Trullook21:09
RoyKJanC: zfs zil?21:09
JanCRoyK: yeah, trying to understand what it does?  ;)21:09
JanCIIRC some FreeBSD filesystem supports that21:10
RoyKzfs on freebsd, yes21:10
JanCI mean, not ZFS21:10
JanCjust trying to understand what functionality exactly you're talking about...21:11
JanChttp://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Evil_Tuning_Guide#Disabling_the_ZIL_.28Don.27t.29 --> this?21:14
RoyKthat's the ZIL21:14
RoyKit'd be nice if Oracle went bankrupt and gave away their code21:15
RoyKabout as likely as a meteor striking21:15
JanCif I understand correctly it's a written log of operations that might take some time to finish, so that if there is a power down before they finish, the kernel/fs can finish them after a reboot, or something like that?21:16
penguin42sounds pretty similar to the ext journal to me21:16
RoyKlike a database log21:16
RoyKvery much like it21:16
JanCpenguin42: it's a bit more than ext journal I think21:17
RoyKexcept ext3 doesn't deal with checksumming and raid and dedup and so on21:17
JanCbut I might be wrong  ;)21:17
penguin42RoyK: Yeh the responsibilities are split on linux where as zfs mushes them altogether a bit21:17
RoyKJanC: I think you might be quite right21:17
JanCRoyK: from what I understand ZFS dedup isn't exactly scientifically sound ;)21:18
RoyKpenguin42: yeah, and with them all "mused" together, consitency is quite easy21:18
RoyKJanC: it's ok so for you have tons of memory and l2arc and nothing bad happens21:19
RoyKsay 4GB plus 1GB per 1TB storage plus a little more - then add l2arc SSD devices and som Zil SSD devices21:19
RoyKbut if you're doing a 100TiB setup, it's quite nice21:20
ibrandtGreetings all.  I'm new to Ubuntu and EC2 (but not Linux otherwise).  If I launch one of the server AMIs, install, configure and use some apps (e.g. a database), and then shut down is all data lost, or do the AMIs mount certain paths from the EBS?  I'm trying to understand if I should read up on deriving new AMIs and reconfiguring mount points to EBS before I take my firs21:20
ibrandtat the cloud.  Thanks to any takers.21:20
RoyKthat is, unless you try to remove a 10TiB dataset and the server reboots. Then it'll probably hang until it's finished the removal of that dataset21:20

RoyKviezerd: with supermicro hardware, it's really not very expensive21:26
scarif i unplug the drives and reboot, then i can get into the BIOS... when i put them back to "IDE" it will detect the disks again... wtf?21:26
penguin42scar: Sounds like a bios bug21:27
RoyKscar: seems like a bad bios to me21:27
scarthe thing is, i have another server of the exact same type with same BIOS version and it's been working just fine with AHCI21:27
RoyKsame ubuntu version?21:27
scaryeah both with 10.0421:27
RoyKanyway - it's not really an ubuntu question, since linux never gets booted21:28
penguin42still say it sounds like a bad bios21:28
scarso do i try to reflash the BIOS?21:28
JanCscar: same BIOS version?21:28
scarJanC, yeah21:28
penguin42I doubt that will help21:29
RoyKit's worth a try21:31
RoyKsince it never reaches grub, something must be fscked up in the BIOS21:31
penguin42scar: My guess is the bios isn't clearing some state out on the hardware on reboot and is confused by the state ubuntu has left it in21:32
RoyKpenguin42: aren't those supposed to be reset on reboot?21:33
RoyKor at least a powerdown?21:33
penguin42RoyK: They *should* be reset on reboot21:33
RoyKnot stored in nvram?21:33
RoyKscar: have you tried to power down the system and let it rest for a minute or two?21:34
penguin42RoyK: Well it should reset the hardware to a decent state before probing21:34
scarpenguin42, i tried using 'load failsafe defaults' as well as 'load optimal defaults' it will work when in IDE mode but when i put it back to AHCI it still is stuck on detecting SATA channel 021:35
RoyKif the firmware isn't buggy :þ21:35
scarRoyK, no... maybe i did for about 30 seconds21:35
penguin42oh so you've tried unplugging - very odd21:35
viezerdRoyK: those Supermicros quality , same as , lets say HP Proliants ?21:36

kirklandRoAkSoAx: here's to hoping you make it, dude22:45
RoAkSoAxkirkland, i do hope so to!! I could have changed to other flights departing today though.. btu the counter at the airport messed up real bad and didn't tell us that there there were other flights available (through different airports) and when we came to see online, we tried to call every apparent avaiable flight but everything got packed22:47
