| _Snark | So. I don't suppose anyone has any advice on installing 10.04 on an ion n330 platform with fakeraid? | 05:17 |
| _Snark | aside from don't.. | 05:17 |
| jturek | Snark, actually i have seen a few people make DIY NAS with fakeraid using the small form factor N330 | 05:21 |
| jturek | Snark, not going to say you could use all your data though <grin> | 05:22 |
| echosystm | ok dudes | 05:23 |
| echosystm | how do i get the ssh client to disconnect? | 05:23 |
| echosystm | ive uncommented escapechar in /etc/ssh/ssh_config | 05:23 |
| echosystm | but when i do ~~. it stil doesnt work | 05:24 |
| echosystm | what is this madness? | 05:24 |
| jturek | try ~? to see if you get a list of options | 05:30 |
| jturek | ~. should be the same as the telnet CTRL-] | 05:30 |
| jturek | if you set your Escape Char to ~ | 05:31 |
| echosystm | doesnt work jturek | 05:35 |
| echosystm | :/ | 05:35 |
| echosystm | just to clarify | 05:36 |
| echosystm | hold shift, press `, press /, release shift ? | 05:36 |
| enav | hi people i got a problem using ubuntu server edition... i cant make ebox run propertly... can i have some help here??? | 05:36 |
| jturek | echosystm: http://www.void.gr/kargig/blog/2006/01/24/ssh-escape-characters/ has a quick run down | 05:39 |
| jturek | 1 | 05:44 |
| scar | jturek, why not be able to use all the data? | 05:45 |
| scar | echosystm, it has to be done on a new line i think, so push enter first, shift+`, release shift, then period | 05:47 |

| RoyK | works, though | 08:17 |

| ivoks | hi | 10:29 |
| ivoks | alvin: what's the problem? | 10:29 |
| ivoks | oh, i see | 10:29 |
| alvin | ivoks: Hi. Well, i'm not finding where to change stuff | 10:29 |
| ivoks | well, dovecot's config changed a lot | 10:29 |
| alvin | Most of the settings are changed | 10:29 |
| ivoks | some of the attributes that existed before do not exists any more | 10:30 |
| alvin | Oh? Is there any documentation? | 10:30 |
| ivoks | on upgrade, if you didn't change anything in dovecot-postfix config | 10:30 |
| ivoks | postinstall will just install new version of config | 10:30 |
| alvin | I'm now comparing the old config file to the files in conf.d and auth.d | 10:30 |
| ivoks | do you know what you have changed in karmic's dovecot-postfix.conf? | 10:31 |
| ivoks | just a second... | 10:31 |
| alvin | Yes, I have a copy and used dovecot -n c <originalfile> | 10:31 |

| alvin | Ouch, first_valid_uid is not valid anymore :-( | 10:37 |
| ivoks | i'm back | 10:37 |
| ivoks | when you start dovecot, it will complain what's wrong | 10:37 |
| alvin | Yes, it does. Problem is. I used a user 'mail' with uid 8 and dovecot no longer accepts first_valid_uid | 10:39 |
| alvin | Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/auth.d/01-dovecot-postfix.auth line 2: Unknown setting: first_valid_uid | 10:39 |
| ivoks | alvin: if you want custom changes, my advice would be to create additional config file in conf.d | 10:39 |
| alvin | So, I shouldn't change 01-dovecot-postfix.conf | 10:39 |
| ivoks | that's the only file in conf.d? | 10:40 |
| alvin | I just wantd to keep my configuration from karmic, but that is destroyed | 10:40 |
| alvin | yes | 10:40 |
| alvin | well, there's also 01-dovecot-postfix.conf.dpkg-old (because of the upgrade) | 10:40 |
| ivoks | it's not; it's in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.old or something like that | 10:40 |
| ivoks | isn't it? | 10:41 |
| alvin | There is no file /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix* | 10:41 |
| alvin | I do have a backup of that file, but the originl was deleted on upgrade | 10:42 |
| ivoks | it was merged in 01-dovecot-postfix.conf | 10:42 |
| ivoks | that's basicaly, your config | 10:42 |
| alvin | and changed I see | 10:42 |
| ivoks | changed? | 10:42 |
| alvin | maybe the first_valid_uid should go into that file. I have put it in auth | 10:43 |
| alvin | Yes, almost all settings I had were changed | 10:43 |
| ivoks | it isn't it just split it into two files | 10:43 |
| alvin | location of maildir, authentication, protocols,... everything | 10:43 |
| ivoks | ok, let's start over | 10:43 |
| ivoks | in karmic, you installed dovecot-postfix, right? | 10:43 |
| alvin | yes | 10:43 |
| ivoks | then you changed /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf? | 10:44 |
| alvin | yes | 10:44 |
| ivoks | then you upgraded to lucid | 10:44 |
| alvin | also yes | 10:44 |
| ivoks | as an author of dovecot-postfix | 10:44 |
| ivoks | postinstal script should've split your custom dovecot-postfix.conf into two files | 10:44 |
| ivoks | one is conf.d/01-dovecot-postfix.conf | 10:44 |
| ivoks | and the other is auth.d/01-dovecot-postfix.auth | 10:45 |
| alvin | Is there a way to run that postinstall script on a custom file? (my original dovecot-postfix.conf) | 10:45 |
| ivoks | then it offered you a diff/merge options for both of those files | 10:45 |
| alvin | I do have those files, but the contents are not the same as the original dovecot-postfix.conf | 10:45 |
| ivoks | correct? | 10:45 |
| alvin | it didn't. It offered me to diff/merge dovecot.conf | 10:45 |
| alvin | because that file wasn't used, I let the upgrade overwrite the file | 10:46 |
| ivoks | so there's nothing except 01-dovecot-postfix.conf in conf.d? | 10:46 |
| ivoks | not even .old? | 10:46 |
| alvin | that's the only question I got during upgrade | 10:46 |
| alvin | Only 01-dovecot-postfix.conf and 01-dovecot-postfix.conf.dpkg-old | 10:46 |
| ivoks | so, there is dpkg-old | 10:47 |
| ivoks | that's your old config | 10:47 |
| alvin | yes | 10:47 |
| alvin | is it safe to use? | 10:47 |
| ivoks | that file gets created when you overwrite your old conffile with a new one | 10:47 |
| ivoks | don't use it, adopt it | 10:47 |
| alvin | Very well. I'll do that. I'll let you know how it ends | 10:48 |
| ivoks | rename it to 02-something.conf | 10:48 |
| ivoks | and keep in it only stuff that's different from 01-dovecot-postfix.conf | 10:48 |
| alvin | Ah, so 02 overwrites the settings in 01? | 10:49 |
| alvin | So I shouldn't change 01? | 10:49 |
| ivoks | correct | 10:50 |
| ivoks | and keep only custom stuff in it | 10:50 |
| alvin | Will do. | 10:50 |
| ivoks | notice that authentication part moved to auth.d | 10:50 |
| alvin | Yes, I saw | 10:51 |

| siya | I have an issue with a server of mine after doing a do-release-upgrade to lucid. console-setup doesn't install and as such I'm now in limbo land... dpkg just hangs and postinst | 11:11 |
| ivoks | hmm | 11:11 |
| siya | http://pastebin.com/qEzf8aPH | 11:11 |
| ivoks | that happend to me once | 11:11 |
| siya | tried to force remove console-setup | 11:12 |
| ivoks | i killed postinst script | 11:12 |
| siya | then purge it using aptitude | 11:12 |
| siya | ivoks, yeah have to | 11:12 |
| ivoks | but, the funny thing is... | 11:12 |
| siya | which then suggest console-setup-mini as an alternative. Which didn't install propperly either | 11:13 |
| ivoks | when i did dist-upgrade again, it worked :) | 11:13 |
| ivoks | or was it dpkg --configure -a | 11:13 |
| _ruben | hmm .. just had my first failed karmic-lucid upgrade .. upgrade seemed to go just fine, just not coming up after reboot, not sure when i'll be at the datacenter again :/ | 11:13 |
| siya | ivoks, dpkg --configure -a get's me stuck at the same place | 11:13 |
| ivoks | _ruben: ilo, ilo | 11:13 |
| Jeeves_ | siya: 'exit 0' helped me a couple of times in a postinst | 11:14 |
| siya | _ruben, had that going from 9.04 to 9.10 (same box sadly) | 11:14 |
| Jeeves_ | Kindof depends on the actions done in a postinst if it's possible | 11:14 |
| _ruben | ivoks: forgot to config .. then again, it only got bmc, no full ilo/drac/whatever | 11:14 |
| _ruben | just a test box, so not big a deal | 11:14 |
| siya | ivoks, my system thinks it's on 10.04 already so dist-upgrade doesn't do much for me | 11:21 |
| ivoks | siya: dist-upgrade updates to latest packages from distro | 11:22 |
| ivoks | siya: so if it says that there's no thing to update, then you are up to date :) | 11:22 |
| siya | it complains about console-setup being missing or broken | 11:22 |
| siya | then stops | 11:23 |
| ivoks | sudo apt-get --reinstall install console-setup | 11:23 |
| siya | halts in the same place | 11:23 |
| siya | post install | 11:23 |
| siya | see http://pastebin.com/qEzf8aPH | 11:23 |

| siya | have to kill the process(es) | 11:33 |

| ivoks | db_get console-setup/optionscode | 11:34 |
| ivoks | options="$RET" | 11:34 |
| ivoks | looks ok | 11:34 |
| ivoks | could you open /var/lib/dpkg/info/console-setup.postinst | 11:36 |
| ivoks | go to line 70 | 11:36 |
| ivoks | comment out from 70 to 76 | 11:36 |
| ivoks | and add echo "TEST" to 77 :) | 11:37 |
| ivoks | then run sudo DEBCONF_DEBUG="developer" dpkg --configure -a | 11:37 |
| siya | file edited | 11:38 |
| siya | same but now with TEST after it | 11:39 |
| siya | so it halts after that section | 11:39 |

| ivoks | RickyWh: both override config from apache2.conf | 11:54 |
| RickyWh | ahh, nm, i found it | 11:54 |
| RickyWh | i was looking for the vhosts file but it's called 000-default | 11:55 |
| RickyWh | why is it that whenever i go to edit a file with vim, when I save I get an error message. Can't open file for writing | 11:59 |
| ivoks | you are not root | 12:00 |
| dominicdinada | quick question guys, with mysql if I am specifing the host a user is allowed from can I use multiple hosts? ie ? 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2 ..... etc | 12:00 |
| ivoks | yes | 12:00 |
| ivoks | 192.168.0.% | 12:00 |
| dominicdinada | ok :P | 12:00 |
| RickyWh | i cannot login as root because it tells me to login as ubuntu user instead | 12:02 |
| dominicdinada | RickyWh: you can take root privilages if you were the first user..... | 12:03 |
| RickyWh | yes i was | 12:04 |
| RickyWh | well, actually, i'm using one of the amazon ec2 images | 12:04 |
| RickyWh | http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/release/ | 12:05 |
| dominicdinada | and you cant sudo ? | 12:06 |
| dominicdinada | Hmmm cant log into remotly to mysql what the hail........ | 12:09 |
| RickyWh | ya i can sudo, but it seems like alot of typing to add sudo before vim | 12:09 |
| dominicdinada | RickyWh: So I guess security is not a primary concern for you then... there are howto's to circumvent the constant request for escalating privalages... just google it | 12:11 |
| RickyWh | well, i first did a sudo passwd root, then set a root password and then did a su root | 12:11 |
| RickyWh | it worked | 12:11 |

| Jeeves_ | I see an interesting session about server boot and upstart. But I'm on the road than. :( | 13:25 |
| stephank | pmatulis: I don't think it's a hardware RAID controller. It's software RAID on top of a CERC SATA 2S controller. (hence dmraid) | 13:26 |
| _ruben | stephank: i'd go with plain mdadm software raid then .. dmraid is evil :) | 13:27 |
| _ruben | i'd only ever touch dmraid if it was for dual boot machine with windows | 13:27 |
| stephank | hmm, reading up on that now | 13:28 |
| _ruben | stephank: set the controller to sata instead of raid in the bios, configure software raid in the ubuntu installer | 13:29 |
| Italian_Plumber | is there a way to tell the sytem not to do a filesystem check on a drive at startup? Do I just not mount the drive? | 13:31 |
| stephank | _ruben: well, let's give it a shot. Thanks for the pointers. :) | 13:32 |
| _ruben | Italian_Plumber: its controlled by /etc/fstab, one of the last 2 columns | 13:41 |
| Italian_Plumber | ... so, if I don't mount the drive, it won't check it? | 13:43 |
| _ruben | sure, but you can mount without checking as well | 13:44 |
| Italian_Plumber | gotcha. Thanks! | 13:45 |
| stephank | I'm confused, software RAID works at the partition level rather than the disk level? | 13:46 |

| mdasilva | hi all, im looking at setting up a UEC but want to clarify the hardware requirements, specifically storage; nodes will only cache guest/instance images that live on the front end, correct? can nodes take advantage of local data storage or must it use "walrus" for data storage on the front end? | 15:21 |
| Italian_Plumber | Good morning. I'm having a hard drive problem, summarized here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1478985 ... any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. | 15:35 |
| mcas | Italian_Plumber: do you have any errors in dmesg about /dev/sdd? | 15:38 |
| mcas | Italian_Plumber: additional you could test your hard drive with smartmon-tools | 15:39 |
| eagles0513875 | hey guys just a quick question what is the difference between an ubuntu server kernel and normal ubuntu kernel | 15:41 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: e.g. support for special server hardware | 15:43 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: could i use it to install the desktop the remove the server kernel ? | 15:43 |
| eagles0513875 | cuz atm ubiquity installer in kubuntu seems bugged and same in server O_O | 15:43 |
| eagles0513875 | sigh | 15:44 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: have you tried alternate cd? | 15:44 |
| tesseracter | hi, I set up a NFS server, and linux computers can mount the systems fine. any ideas why osx is being pissy? | 15:44 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: alternate net install live cd | 15:44 |
| mcas | and server works for you? | 15:44 |
| eagles0513875 | ubiquity is bugged mcas filed a bug but probably wont get looked at till next week due to uds | 15:44 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: will know soon enough | 15:44 |
| eagles0513875 | acpi also seems bugged | 15:45 |
| mcas | if you have a server installation you can install kubuntu-desktop | 15:45 |
| mcas | and so you get kde enviroment | 15:45 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: i plan on doing that just curious as to the difference between the 2 kernel | 15:45 |
| eagles0513875 | kernels | 15:45 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: i think you will have no problems with using server kernel | 15:46 |

| mcas | eagles0513875: have you checked your cd? have you tested you memory? | 15:58 |
| eagles0513875 | tested all hardware its fine | 15:58 |
| eagles0513875 | checksum of the isos match so its not a bad iso | 15:58 |
| eagles0513875 | and im using a bootable usb | 15:58 |

| Italian_Plumber | mcas: a hardware problem is likely as I had a power failure a few days ago. | 16:01 |
| mcas | Italian_Plumber: do you have a second pc where you could test the hd? | 16:01 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: question for ya how well does server handle drives over 1tb | 16:03 |
| Italian_Plumber | ah yes. Here's the point of failure last night: http://pastebin.com/JHt6bJ17 | 16:03 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: no problems afaik | 16:03 |
| Italian_Plumber | I do have a second PC: my wife's. :) So it's problematic getting access to it. | 16:03 |
| eagles0513875 | strange why is the formatting hanging then mcas | 16:03 |
| mcas | Italian_Plumber: i think it's the only test you could do | 16:05 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: hanging for how long? | 16:05 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: seems like it formats up to 33% then there is no hdd activity at all | 16:05 |
| eagles0513875 | and then on kubuntu same thing if i leave acpi turned on hangs at 33% | 16:06 |
| eagles0513875 | server its different with acpi on or off it still hangs at 33% | 16:06 |
| eagles0513875 | i did have a power outage 2 weeks | 16:07 |
| eagles0513875 | ago | 16:07 |
| eagles0513875 | thing is at that time i was on win 7 | 16:07 |
| eagles0513875 | so i know thats not my problem right now | 16:07 |
| eagles0513875 | ram and video card are all ok | 16:07 |
| eagles0513875 | hdd is fine as well | 16:07 |
| Italian_Plumber | mcas: thanks. Are you at a Marine Corps Air Station? :) | 16:08 |
| mcas | no ;-) | 16:08 |
| eagles0513875 | :( | 16:10 |
| eagles0513875 | im running out of options | 16:10 |
| eagles0513875 | live cd alternate and even net install same problems | 16:10 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: have you tried to boot into live cd and then formatting your hd? | 16:13 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: on kubuntu live cd with acpi off that works fine it formats then i have issues with shared objects | 16:13 |
| eagles0513875 | and an error saying that the version im installing is different then what is on the cd in my case live usb | 16:14 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: ubuntu live cd? | 16:14 |
| eagles0513875 | if i hit retry a number of times it sometimes installs other times i ahve to skip | 16:14 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: havent tried ubuntu live cd yet gonna try kubuntu alternate cd | 16:14 |

| billybigrigger | is an nfs share supposed to be laggy on a 100mbps home network? | 16:43 |
| billybigrigger | ie, it will transfer 50mb, then pause for about 8 secs, then go for another 50mb | 16:45 |
| billybigrigger | the nfs server is through vbox, watching top, i have lots of cpu/mem available | 16:45 |
| _ruben | sounds more like the disks cant handle it or so | 16:45 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: they ide or sata drives | 16:45 |
| billybigrigger | maybe it's just slow through vbox, but the whole system hangs up after about 50mb | 16:45 |
| billybigrigger | hmm now that i think about it, my os disk is ide... | 16:46 |
| billybigrigger | have 2 storage drives that are sata... | 16:46 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: i have noticed that I/O is slow on vbox | 16:46 |
| eagles0513875 | and ide doesnt help either | 16:46 |
| billybigrigger | nope it doesn't | 16:46 |
| billybigrigger | just testing nfs out, building a fileserver today, that will have 1tb sata | 16:46 |
| billybigrigger | thinking about getting a gigabit switch in here today too... | 16:46 |
| eagles0513875 | gotcha your better off testing with a sata drive if you want more accurate I/O info | 16:47 |
| billybigrigger | 2 storage drives on my main machine here are sata...so i shouldn't have any more problems when i go live, instead of using vbox | 16:47 |
| billybigrigger | eagles0513875, you have experience with gigabit networks at all? ie for home use | 16:48 |
| eagles0513875 | its funny you ask | 16:48 |
| eagles0513875 | i dont have a giga switch | 16:48 |
| eagles0513875 | but desktop and mac are both gigabit nics | 16:49 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: what kinda questions you got | 16:49 |
| billybigrigger | yeah, new fileserver mobo will have gigabit nic, so i might as well take advantage of them | 16:49 |
| billybigrigger | just wondering what real world speeds i will achieve | 16:49 |
| billybigrigger | 1000Mbps works out to ~140MB/s | 16:49 |
| eagles0513875 | ya i wanna get a wireless n router for my wifi n card in my mac as well as a gigabit switch | 16:49 |
| billybigrigger | im happy if really see over 100MB/s | 16:49 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: not sure off the top of my head m8 but even with 100mbps router | 16:50 |
| eagles0513875 | i get 1.2mbps over my 10mbps cable internet connection | 16:50 |
| billybigrigger | why so slow? | 16:52 |
| billybigrigger | my cable connection is 25mbps and i can max it out | 16:52 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: cable isp is a monopolizing compnay here on this island | 16:52 |
| billybigrigger | using usenet, or torrent | 16:52 |
| eagles0513875 | nice | 16:52 |
| billybigrigger | island, which one? | 16:52 |
| eagles0513875 | malta | 16:52 |
| eagles0513875 | 60 miles south of scicily | 16:53 |
| billybigrigger | oooh, must be nice living there :) | 16:53 |
| eagles0513875 | paradies | 16:53 |

| eagles0513875 | but parents are from here so im back here now studying hehe | 16:53 |
| billybigrigger | i live in canada, so that sounds like a beautiful place to live for me | 16:53 |
| eagles0513875 | have family back here | 16:53 |
| billybigrigger | ahh thats cool | 16:53 |
| eagles0513875 | it is i love it over the usa | 16:53 |

| eagles0513875 | mcas: strange the partitioner on the alternate cd seems to be working O_o im wondering if there is a bug in the partitioning system | 16:54 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: ya | 16:54 |
| billybigrigger | niiiice :P | 16:54 |
| billybigrigger | alright, going to pick up some parts...ill be back with some questions i imagine haha | 16:54 |
| eagles0513875 | lol ok billybigriggerand im gonna stay here trying to get kubuntu lucid installed | 16:55 |
| eagles0513875 | ubiquity has a severe bug | 16:55 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: i told you to try the alternate cd :-D | 16:56 |
| eagles0513875 | i am now | 16:56 |
| eagles0513875 | but its strange how it doesnt work on ubuntu server the partitioning and formatting just hangs at 33% and when i touch the drive there is no activity on it | 16:56 |
| halvors | I know it takes a lot of time on the 33% but it shoulds continue :-/ | 16:59 |
| eagles0513875 | 2tb hdd halvors | 16:59 |
| eagles0513875 | its continuing now | 16:59 |
| eagles0513875 | installing base system | 16:59 |
| Italian_Plumber | mcas: looks like turning the computer off and back on again (instead of just rebooting) has got that SATA link back up. | 17:00 |
| Italian_Plumber | oh and I also reseated the drive's power cord, data cable, and the SATA controller card | 17:00 |
| mcas | that sounds good to me eagles0513875 and Italian_Plumber | 17:01 |
| mcas | i have to go | 17:01 |
| mcas | bye | 17:01 |

| mcmatterson | can someone give me a definitive answer about what the UEC metadata service should look like on a lucid UEC install? I've got a single-machine CC+NC setup for testing, and am experiencing the 'hang on EC2 metadata' bug that's all the rage these days (https://bugs.launchpad.net/eucalyptus/+bug/566792).

| eagles0513875 | hehe | 17:54 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: regretting choosing the correct mirror | 17:57 |
| Italian_Plumber | error: check out rtorrent | 18:24 |
| Italian_Plumber | Error404NotFound ^^ | 18:24 |
| Error404NotFound | Italian_Plumber, found bittorrent, rtorrent doesn't create torrents afaik | 18:28 |
| Italian_Plumber | rtorrent does not make torrents. You said you already made the torrent. | 18:28 |
| Italian_Plumber | is there a "stronger" command to reboot, than "reboot"? | 18:43 |
| eagles0513875 | Italian_Plumber: use the init scritp on command line issue sudo init 6 | 18:44 |
| eagles0513875 | Italian_Plumber: 6 is reboot 0 is shutdown | 18:44 |
| RoyK | reboot -f | 18:44 |
| eagles0513875 | RoyK: init scripts would work as well | 18:44 |
| RoyK | unless something hangs | 18:45 |
| RoyK | reboot == init 6 | 18:45 |
| RoyK | halt == init 0 | 18:45 |
| Italian_Plumber | so far neither is working :) | 18:45 |
| Italian_Plumber | box is still pluggin' away | 18:46 |
| RoyK | reboot -f normally works | 18:47 |
| RoyK | if you can reach the console, type hold alt+prtscreen and type SUB | 18:47 |
| Italian_Plumber | Console is ~3 miles away :) | 18:49 |
| Italian_Plumber | I guess I'll have to wait until I get home | 18:49 |
| Italian_Plumber | oh -- wait... I think it's doing it now | 18:49 |
| RoyK | an OOPS can make the system not allow for a reboot | 18:50 |
| eagles0513875 | Italian_Plumber: hence install ssh hehe | 18:50 |
| RoyK | I've seen that a few times | 18:50 |
| Italian_Plumber | an oops? | 18:50 |
| RoyK | so, enable kernel.panic_on_oops | 18:50 |
| RoyK | and kernel.panic = 60 | 18:50 |
| RoyK | oops is a "panic light" | 18:50 |
| eagles0513875 | Italian_Plumber: another reboot command is sudo shutdown -r now | 18:50 |
| RoyK | eagles0513875: it still just does an init 6 | 18:51 |
| eagles0513875 | gotcha | 18:51 |
| Italian_Plumber | successfully rebooted :) | 18:51 |
| RoyK | Italian_Plumber: in /etc/sysctl.conf, set kernel.panic_on_oops = 1 and kernel.panic = 60 | 18:51 |
| RoyK | that'll make the system panic if an oops happens and reboot 60 seconds the panic | 18:52 |
| Italian_Plumber | what would cause an opps | 18:53 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: what im finding funny is the installer seems to fail when installing kde | 18:59 |
| RoyK | Italian_Plumber: usually a faulty driver or bad hardware | 19:00 |
| RoyK | eagles0513875: kde on a server? | 19:00 |
| eagles0513875 | RoyK: no not on a server my desktop | 19:00 |
| eagles0513875 | been fighting with ubiquity like no other and it turns out its a bug between ubiquity and kde something with kde | 19:01 |

| ARTSIOM | right now on karmic I have sun_java6_jdk_1.6.0_20, how can I downgrade it to sun_java6_jdk_1.6.0_17? | 19:02 |
| ARTSIOM | right now on karmic I have sun_java6_jdk_1.6.0_20, how can I downgrade it to sun_java6_jdk_1.6.0_17? | 19:46 |
| eagles0513875 | ARTSIOM: i wouldnt advices it | 19:46 |
| eagles0513875 | anything below 20 has a nasty exploit | 19:46 |
| mcas | re | 19:47 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: got it workign with alternate | 19:47 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: great :-) | 19:47 |
| eagles0513875 | turns out the bug is between ubiquity and the kde packages somewhere | 19:47 |
| eagles0513875 | installing kde now hehe gnome installs fine kde is bugged | 19:48 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: :( thats not good | 19:48 |
| eagles0513875 | had a random reboot | 19:48 |
| eagles0513875 | nm | 19:48 |
| eagles0513875 | damn screen saver hehe | 19:48 |
| ARTSIOM | eagles0513875: ok, if I understand the risks, is there any standard way to downgrade package? | 19:49 |
| eagles0513875 | ARTSIOM: im not sure actually | 19:49 |
| mcas | ARTSIOM: do you still have the "old" package on your hd? | 19:52 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: i think if he doesnt he could get it from the java website | 19:53 |
| eagles0513875 | java.sun.com | 19:53 |
| ARTSIOM | mcas: no, 1.6.0-u20 was the initial install | 19:54 |
| mcas | ARTSIOM: how do you install this version? | 19:55 |
| ARTSIOM | mcas: apt-get install sun-java6-jdk | 19:56 |
| mcas | ok then you have to download the -17 version from the java.sun.com website first | 19:57 |
| ARTSIOM | mcas: I am already browsing it for a while, but can't find a link for old versions... | 19:58 |
| mcas | after you uninstalled the -20 version apt-get purge sun-java6-jdk install the package you previously downloaded | 19:58 |
| mcas | ARTSIOM: http://java.sun.com/products/archive/ | 20:01 |
| eagles0513875 | mcas: fyi you can have multiple versions of the jdk it seems like without them conflicting | 20:01 |
| billybigrigger | hey all | 20:02 |
| eagles0513875 | hey billybigrigger i figured out the source of the problem i was having | 20:02 |
| billybigrigger | which was | 20:03 |
| mcas | eagles0513875: thanks for the hint | 20:03 |
| eagles0513875 | no problem mcas fyi can also have 2 versions installed 32bit or 64bit at same time as well | 20:03 |
| RickyWh | which version of ubuntu should be used for a stable server? | 20:04 |
| billybigrigger | im having problems setting up my routers after adding this switch | 20:04 |
| billybigrigger | dhcp doesn't seem to be working, so im guessing i have to manually set my ip addresses | 20:05 |
| mcas | RickyWh: IMHO you can use the brand new LTS 10.04 release | 20:07 |
| billybigrigger | is it odd for a switch to not have an uplink? | 20:08 |
| RickyWh | apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade to get any updates right? | 20:08 |
| billybigrigger | this switch i bought only has 5 ports, so i imagine i just connect my router to link1? | 20:08 |
| billybigrigger | i thought it would have an uplink port for a router | 20:08 |
| mcas | billybigrigger: i think the switch has auto mode for uplink on every port | 20:09 |
| billybigrigger | yeah | 20:09 |
| billybigrigger | got er working now | 20:10 |
| billybigrigger | except my fileserver only has a 100mbps link | 20:10 |
| billybigrigger | weird | 20:10 |
| eagles0513875 | O_o | 20:10 |
| billybigrigger | not having an os installed shouldn't change the link speed of my internal nic should it? ie im just sitting after post..."insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key" | 20:11 |
| billybigrigger | can't see anything in the bios to select a link speed either | 20:11 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: what kinda network cable you got | 20:12 |
| eagles0513875 | 5e or cat 6 | 20:12 |
| billybigrigger | sonnofa..... | 20:13 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: ? | 20:13 |
| billybigrigger | thought it was 5e, looks to be and old cat5 | 20:13 |
| eagles0513875 | billybigrigger: thats the problem most likely | 20:13 |
| billybigrigger | :P | 20:13 |
| billybigrigger | hmm | 20:13 |
| billybigrigger | cat5e patch cable will do i guess | 20:14 |
| eagles0513875 | shame i cant walk over a 5e table to test it lol | 20:14 |
| billybigrigger | hmmm | 20:15 |
| billybigrigger | this 5e patch cable is still only giving a 100mbps link | 20:15 |
| billybigrigger | sob | 20:15 |
| jeeves_moss | just wondering about gl_tail and if anyone has been able to install it. currently, I'm stuck on net-ssh (ruby package), and I can't get it installed | 20:19 |
| billybigrigger_ | am i wrong in assuming that a cat5e and a cat5e patch cable have the same throughput? | 20:39 |
| mcas | i think cat5e and cat5e should have the same troughput :-) | 20:41 |
| MTecknology | Any of you know much about xmpp with google apps? If that's even appropriate for this channel. | 20:44 |
| mluser-work | Hello everyone, I need to blacklist kvm and kvm_intel kernel modules, but adding them to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf does not seem to work.. any ideas? | 20:55 |
| sbeattie | mluser-work: can you disable the kvm initscript/upstart config that causes them to be loaded? | 21:03 |
| mluser-work | sbeattie: yes thanks.. its working now :) | 21:06 |

| soloslinger | hey all. I am following this documentation, but it doesn't mention anything about adding the service to start on startup. How would I go about doing that? https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html | 22:01 |
| soloslinger | rc-update add vsftpd default? | 22:02 |
| u0324 | Has anybody dealt with reconciling apt-get installing the amanda-server package in lucid with backup:backup and the ZWC client wanting to backup windows machines using the amandabackup user? | 22:15 |
| RickyWh | how do i enable sftp on ubuntu 10.04 ? | 22:19 |
| RoyK | RickyWh: apt-get install ssh | 22:22 |
| RickyWh | When I try to connect with WinSCP it asks me to login, i type root and the error says "REceived too large SFTP packet" | 22:24 |
| RickyWh | if i try logging in with user ubuntu, then I cannot upload files to the /var/ directory, error "permission denied" | 22:25 |
| RoyK | /var is usually not writable for users | 22:26 |
| RoyK | try the home dir | 22:26 |
| RoyK | or set permissions for the dir into which you want to upload files | 22:26 |
| RoyK | not the whole of /var, that'd be bad | 22:26 |
| RickyWh | i want to upload files to /var/www/ | 22:27 |
| RickyWh | which is where my apache2 reads from | 22:28 |
| RickyWh | and the only reason I need access to /var/ is to upload an /includes/ directory with database php scripts | 22:28 |
| RickyWh | is it safe to make /var/www chown to ubuntu user? | 22:30 |
| RoyK | RickyWh: man chmod | 22:32 |
| RickyWh | well i already changed the owner of the directory to ubuntu | 22:32 |
| RickyWh | maybe I should just make it read and write by a group that ubuntu is part of instead? | 22:32 |
| RoyK | with scp or stcp the user used should suffice | 22:34 |
| RickyWh | is it a huge security risk to chown the /var/www to ubuntu user? | 22:37 |
| mdasilva | with a UEC setup, can node instances write to local disks? | 22:39 |

| enav | hi guys after install ebox on my server it does not run at all.... what could it be? | 22:56 |
| cloakable | Just upgraded to 10.04, and there's a bug in the mailstack: the cmusieve plugin isn't installed, you need to use sieve, not cmusieve now. | 23:23 |

| enav | guys witch is the most stable server edition of ubuntu 8 ,9 or 10????? | 23:43 |
| ScottK | enav: Myself I've never had any stability issues with any of the supported releases, but, of course, depending on your hardware and package selections it may be different for you. | 23:50 |
| ScottK | If you are just starting now, I would recommend starting with 10.04 (the most recent release). | 23:51 |
| enav | ScottK i ask that question because ebox is not running on my ubuntu server... i'm just downloading Ubuntu Server edition 8 and see what happens | 23:51 |
| ScottK | The most work around ebox integration was done for 8.04. | 23:52 |
| enav | ScottK that means ebox is a little outdated? | 23:54 |
| ScottK | No, it means that if you are using ebox, your best chance of it working is probably 8.04. | 23:55 |
| ScottK | It hasn't had a lot of focused effort since. | 23:55 |
| enav | ok thanks mate... im about to create my first web server in the open source world.... | 23:56 |
