trimetaRoAkSoAx: Thanks.00:05
trimetaWeird place for it...00:05
Owner_hello people00:24
Owner_i just got new server00:24
Owner_2 hard drives 80 and 160gb00:24
Owner_how should i partition it?00:24
Owner_primarily as web server00:25
trimetaOwner_: Honestly, I'd consider using an LVM or something so you could have one huge space. But I'm no expert by any means.00:25
=== Owner_ is now known as wizardslovak
wizardslovakhmmm00:26
trimetaWith the new grub, you can even boot off of a LVM partition, though I don't know if I'd trust it for a production server.00:27
wizardslovakok00:27
wizardslovakmaybe i will just partition 80gb for now and leave 160 for later00:28
wizardslovakhuh00:28
wizardslovakwhat version are you using?00:28
trimetaI just upgraded my server from Karmic to Lucid.00:29
trimetaThough, since I've got four 1.5 TB drives with a small RAID 1 partition for /boot and everything else RAID 5'd together to form a physical volume for a LVM, which lets me put swap and / on the same space...it's a bit more complicated than your HD setup.00:30
wizardslovakwell i want this server to run 2-3 web sites00:31
wizardslovakso not much data tho00:31
trimetaMy only experience with running multiple sites is Apache's sites-enabled stuff, so I can't tell you whether you'd want them all on the same partition; I can't think of why you wouldn't, but that doesn't mean there isn't a reason.00:32
wizardslovaki want to erase partition and it says "in use by lvm volume group name"00:34
trimetaIf you've started creating an LVM setup, you need to take it apart from the top down: remove the logical volumes, then remove the volume group, and then you can change the physical volumes into something else.00:35
wizardslovakok got it00:35
* flyback bbl00:36
i3quit00:37
wizardslovakok so 80gb is partitioned00:43
wizardslovakhow should i set up 160gb?00:43
trimetaI don't know; if you're making the 80gb one volume, then the only option would be to make the 160gb a separate volume.00:44
trimetaThough don't forget some swap space and maybe a boot partition.00:44
wizardslovakyea swap is 2x ram and boot is 1gb00:45
trimetaSounds fine.00:45
wizardslovakso i should leave 160 as "free space"?00:45
trimetaI suppose, as long as you've got your swap and boot taken care of.00:46
wizardslovaki used to play with ubuntu server some time ago00:46
wizardslovaki just have to remind myself some stuff00:46
jeeveswhat is the best way to do a CLI ADSL PPPoE connection?00:58
flybackgo into your modem from the isp and configure it for bridge mode :P01:06
flybackand not worry about the pppoe part01:06
wizardslovakhmmm01:08
wizardslovaki used to bridge modem and then upse PPpOe in router01:08
wizardslovakalways worked01:08
chrismsnzhey, is anybody here running supermicro 2u twin servers?01:08
chrismsnzI'm having stability problems, have replaced almost every inch of the system and starting to think it may be ubuntu related01:09
flybacktry01:09
flybackmemtest.sh01:09
flybackgoogle "redhat memtest.sh"01:09
flybacknotice I said memtest.sh01:09
agentkwizardslovak: Last time I configured it that way my router called it half-bridged mode.01:10
flybackNOT memtest8601:10
chrismsnzflyback: are you talking to me?01:10
flybackyes01:10
wizardslovakhuh wel i had wrt54g with dd-wrt huh01:10
wizardslovakjust put my info in there and worked lol01:10
chrismsnzwhat will it tell me that memtest86 won't?01:10
flybackit checks01:11
flybackcpu01:11
flybackdma channels01:11
flybackpci bus01:11

flybacketc01:11
flybackfor bit errors01:11
chrismsnzah, excellent01:11
flybackbasically it zips and unzips the kernel source01:11
chrismsnzdoes it stress the machine much?01:11
flybacka canuckload of times01:11
flybackand diffs it to check for bit flips01:11
flybackyes01:11
chrismsnzok, i'll remove a node from production - thanks for that flyback, i'll see what it tells me01:12
flybacksure :)01:12
AzelphurHi, playing about with ubuntu server on a really old laptop. It doesn't have a networking port, so I've been trying to use a USB wifi dongle to get it going, however when I plug it in the dongle doesn't show up in ifconfig01:14
Azelphurbut if I plug it into my PC that has ubuntu desktop, it does.01:14
wizardslovakhow come /etc/resolv.conf its empty?01:14
wizardslovaki am trying to setup static ip01:14
jeeveswell, the DD-WRT box I've got running just isn't cutting it.01:16
jeevesand I'd like to set up the server as the router/firewall01:16
wizardslovakoh ok01:16
wizardslovaki run dd0wrt for couple years now and never had any problems with it01:16
wizardslovaki had it on dsl and cable , always worked like charm01:16
wizardslovakhuh01:16
jrwrenthe ipv6 iptables stack kinda sucks under 2.4, but the wifi chip in WRT54G isn't supported well under 2.6, so dd-wrt kinda stinks at ipv6 on wrt54gl hardware01:17
jeeveswell, currently, I have DSL @ the house here, and the Linksys POS router is just that, a POS.  I'd like to run the modem into my server, then have the server be the router (along with a lot of other crap)01:17
wizardslovaklisten do i have to remve dhcp-client to have static ip on server?01:19
killownhow i do to adjust clock to UTC?01:19
killownhow setup timezone?01:19
jeeveswizardslovak, are you giving out DHCP addresses to your internal network?01:19
jeeveskillown, look under /etc/ntp.cfg01:20
killownjeeves, nothing there01:20
jeeveskillown, one sec01:20
wizardslovakno i want server to have static ip , it will be web server so no dns01:20
killownln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Brazil/ /etc/localtime01:21
jeeveswizardslovak, your static IP comes from your ISP.01:21
wizardslovakyes i know01:21
wizardslovaki gt static ip from isp01:21
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, and you have 2 NICs in your box?01:21
wizardslovaki want my server to have static ip on my LAN 192.168.1.x01:21
jeeveskillown, give me a sec, I'm going to see if I can find out what's going on with your box.  Do you have the NTP server installed?01:22
wizardslovakyes i do have 2 of them01:22
wizardslovaki just got my 1u server today ;)01:22
killownjeeves, yes01:22
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, and you've got the ISP side one direct connect to the modem?01:22
jeeveskillown, ok, one sec01:22
wizardslovakmy isp goes to modem which goes to router to which server is connected01:22
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, and you've got your ports forwarded to the server?01:23
wizardslovakyes 80 and 2501:23
wizardslovaki wont use it as email so no other ports are nessesary01:23
killowndpkg-reconfigure tzdata01:24
wizardslovaki am following this guide http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-ubuntu-server-from-dhcp-to-a-static-ip-address/01:24
killownjeeves, i found..01:24
jeeveskillown, http://codeghar.wordpress.com/2007/12/06/manage-time-in-ubuntu-through-command-line/01:24
killownanyway thank you01:24
jeeveskillown, sorry, I've got the 2 of you, 3 people on FB,and the fiance wanting attention01:24
killownjeeves, no problem!! ty01:24
wizardslovakjeeves , i know how it feels01:24
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, so you've got the setup as the following..  internet ==> modem ==> router ==> server?01:25
wizardslovakyes01:25
jeevesbrb guys, rum is in the fridge @ the other end of the house01:25
wizardslovakhuh i still gotta go pay my bills today , which is couple block huh01:25
wizardslovakall day long i was waiting for this server to come so i can play with it ;)01:26
jeevesok, sorry, I had to go get some rum01:28
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, so you want to do what now with your setup?01:28
wizardslovakstatic ip on server01:29
wizardslovaki just redone /etc/network interfaces01:29
wizardslovakis there anything else i gotta do?01:29
jeeveswizardslovak, are you talking about an internal static IP (ie. static on your internal network so you can port forward)?01:29
wizardslovakyes01:30
wizardslovakso i can ssh in my LAN01:30
jeeveswizardslovak, http://pastebin.com/SkzUUb3E01:31
dominicdinadaAnyhow i am still having problems getting my wireless up in master mode.... stupid hows link to pages that dont exist... and are incomplete  for the zd1211 chipset01:31
jeevesthen pull a "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"01:31
wizardslovakyeap i got same01:32
jeevesok, once you've got that setup that way, then go into the port forwarding on your router and point the ports you need to that static IP01:33
dominicdinadaAnyhow i am still having problems getting my wireless up in master mode.... stupid hows link to pages that dont exist... and are incomplete  for the zd1211 chipset01:34
jeevesdominicdinada, I heard you.  I'm not the wireless guy.  sorry01:34
dominicdinadaOk :P01:34
dominicdinadamaybe someone else is01:35
jeeveswizardslovak, did that work out for ya?01:35
jeevesdominicdinada, it's kinda quiet in here tongiht01:35
cipher421hey guyz, i upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and i hangs at boot, kernal log says can't read proc fs 101:36
jeevescipher421, did it ever boot after you upgraded?01:37
cipher421yea barely tho01:37
cipher421like 2 lines into the boot01:37
cipher421says will check some fs in 2 boots or so01:37
cipher421then hangs01:37
jeevescipher421, lol, sounds like to me that grub forgot what it was doing.01:37
STFhi01:37
wizardslovakhuh i restarted all system and now its "main process (797) terminated with status 401:38
jeevescipher421, have you tried a grub repair?01:38
cipher421no01:38
STFi have a fresh ubuntu 9.04 installed01:38
cipher421jus grub-repair or so?01:38
STFand need help with routingtables01:38
jeeveseveryone, make sure that you put the person's name infront of who you're talking to.  otherwise, no one knows who is talking to who!01:38
jeevescipher421, one sec, I'll see if I can find the howto I used01:39
jeevescipher421, do you know what partition the boot is on?01:39
cipher421hrm01:39
cipher421i think so01:40
jeevescipher421, ok, this "howto" is a little "round about", but it'll get you to where you need to go.  http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html01:40
wizardslovakdamn01:40
wizardslovaksomething happened01:40
jeeveswizardslovak, ???01:40
wizardslovaki cannot boot into system01:40
cipher421did you go pee on the machine again??01:41
wizardslovak"init: ureadahead-other main process (784) terminated with status 4"01:41
cipher421sorry, crazy stressful day01:41
cipher421thanks jeeves01:41
jeeveswizardslovak, lol, this is after you changed your interfaces file?01:41
wizardslovakyes i changed this and enabled uwf01:41
jeevescipher421, np.  give it a try.   I have to do it every time I update any adobe products on either of my Windows partitions on my netbook01:42
jeeveswizardslovak, lol!!!  ok, can you get grub to boot you into recovery mode?01:42
cipher421jeeves, ok so my problem is that i will have to use this hdd to recover the server01:42
jeeveswizardslovak, I think you've got a little more going on there than just the interfaces table01:42
cipher421or actually i can use the server cd to recover...01:42
wizardslovakhmmm01:43
wizardslovaklets see01:43
wizardslovaki cannot get into grub lol01:43
jeevescipher421, what it sounds like is that when the upgrade went through, there was some wierd drive mapping going on with the orignal install, grub's auto find OS feature messed up, and poof, no bootable OS01:43
wizardslovakill just reinstall whole os01:43
jeeveswizardslovak, d-load the live CD, and beat it into sublission with a large alumimium baseball bat (and yes, I've done that to a client's server before)01:44
jeeveswizardslovak, is there anything on there that you care about?01:44
cipher421jeeves i'll report back in 10 or so!01:44
cipher421thank!01:44
wizardslovakjeeves i just got this server huh nothing there yet01:44
jeevesif not, them play with it and learn!!  otherwise, you'll never figure it out!01:44
jeevescipher421, lol.  kk01:44
jeeveswizardslovak, well, if there's nothing important on there, then play with it! Those are the best ones!  when you have no pressure of time or messing things up.01:45
wizardslovakyea but i cannot even get int o grub lol01:45
cipher421also, i was told earlier that btrfs was included on 10.04, but didn't see the option01:45
jeeveswizardslovak, when you boot off of the live CD, then you've got shell01:46
jeevescipher421, ???   you may have to get into it via a live CD, then figure it out!  I pitty you if you've got to edit Grub2 by hand01:47
cipher421i've done it before...01:47
cipher421have a bad taste in my mouth already01:48
cipher421i really don't like grub2....01:48
cipher421what was wrong with grub?01:48
wizardslovakhuh01:48
cipher421talking to jeeves01:48
cipher421brb01:49
wizardslovaklol now i cant even boot into livecd01:49
jeevescipher421, lol, they made the decition to move to the new one because it "looks better" and does more things.  Personally, I prefer my 1985 Jaguar XJ-S over the Mazda POS that my fiance drives.  And for a car that's got 20 years on it, I can still smoke her (and most of the rice rockets) on the road01:49
jeeveswizardslovak, check your BIOS to boot from the disk (or you may have to hit F12 on POST)01:49
wizardslovaki hit f12 choosed cdrom nothing01:49
wizardslovakchoosed usb same think01:50
jeeveswizardslovak, ok, check the BIOS boot order (and if you've got the proper ROM if you have more than one)01:50
wizardslovakhmm01:52
wizardslovak"inte boot manager"01:52
wizardslovakintel huh01:52
jeevesLOL.01:53
jeevesyou've got an intel board?01:53
wizardslovak"intel boot agent" huh01:53
wizardslovakyes its p4 3ghz ht01:53
wizardslovakok so i booted into usb01:53
wizardslovakand i put rescue a broken syste,01:54
wizardslovaksystem01:54
jeevesok, and do you have root @ a shell prompt?01:54
wizardslovakhuh i think i found my problem01:54
wizardslovakfailed to detect and mount cdrom01:55
STFwhat is wrong here: "sudo route add -net 134.91.0.0 gw 192.168.1.2"01:55
jeevesSTF, I'm not sure.  I think I'm the only one in here who's actually @ the keyboard01:55
STFlol01:56
jeeveswizardslovak, did you figure it out?01:56
wizardslovaki changed some setting is bios01:57
wizardslovaklet see what happen01:57
jeeveswizardslovak, kk01:57
jeevesSTF, have you thought of using Webmin?01:57
wizardslovakok01:57
wizardslovaki bypassed that cdrom01:57
wizardslovaknow i am at shell01:57
wizardslovak~x01:57
jeeveswizardslovak, lol.  good!  we're making progress!01:58
wizardslovaki wont use cdrom anyways , i will dissable it later01:58
wizardslovakits taking me ,ittle longer to get thinks ;)01:58
jeeveslol, just comment out that line in the fstab01:58
wizardslovakok that i didnt get01:58
jeeveswizardslovak, "pico /etc/fstab" then put an "#" next to the line for the CD-ROM.01:59
jeevesthen it won't complain untill you reboot01:59
wizardslovak"pico not found"02:00
jeeveslol.02:00
jeeves<slowly shakes my head>  vi then?02:00
wizardslovaktest editor? i like nano02:00
wizardslovakok weird02:01
jeeveslol, I use pico02:01
wizardslovak"sedu nano /etc/fstab" and it says "sudo" not found"02:01
wizardslovaki mean sudo nano02:01
jeevesyou don't need "sudo" if your prompt ends with "#".  that means your logged in as the root user02:02
wizardslovakok nano /etc/fstab02:03
jeevesyep02:03
jeevesthose are all the mounts that happen @ boot02:04
wizardslovakthere is nothing like "cr-drom"02:04
wizardslovakthere are 3 lines02:04
jeevessee the CD in there?02:04
wizardslovakfirst line "none /dev/pts   devpts  defaults 0 0 "02:04
wizardslovaksecond line  "none  /proc   proc  defaults 0 0"02:05
wizardslovakthird line "none /sys  sysfs noauto 0 0 "02:05
wizardslovakand thats it02:05
jeevesok, don't worry about it then.  you'll need to fiddle with repairing Grub now02:06
wizardslovakok02:06
wizardslovakso what do i do now?02:06
wizardslovaknever repaired grub before02:06
jeevesone sec02:06
wizardslovaksure even two ;)02:06
jeeveslol, I'm trying to fix a web hosting box @ the same time02:07
wizardslovakok i got time02:07
jeeveshttp://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html02:07
wizardslovakok02:08
wizardslovak"fdisk " -> "not found"02:09
jeevesdo you even have an outbound connection?02:09
wizardslovaki will just reinstall os02:09
wizardslovak??02:09
jeevescan you do a "apt-get install fdisk"?02:09
wizardslovakno02:10
jeeveslol,  'meh.  nuke it if you want, but personally, I'm thinking it'd be an amazing learning exp for ya02:10
wizardslovaki think i messed up somewhere02:10
wizardslovaklisten02:10
wizardslovakthis might sound stupid02:11
jeevestry me.  I deal with dumb people all day02:11
wizardslovakhostaname is name of pc/server right?02:11
jeeveshostname is the name of the box you're on.02:11
cipher421tis a no go02:11
jeevescipher421, what was the setup on that box before the upgrade?02:11
wizardslovakok partitioning ill just use entire hard drive02:12
cipher421think i've given up jeeves, i documented all my settings, so a reinstall will be a time saver at this point..02:12
cipher421feeling pretty beatup in general today anywayz02:12
jeevescipher421, no worries.  if you've got everything backed up, then do it up.02:12
wizardslovakext4 or ext3?02:13
jeevescipher421, I'm just trying to get wizardslovak to learn how to recover his system02:13
cipher421yea i keep all my good stuffs on another drive02:13
cipher421ext4 for sure02:13
jeeveswizardslovak, for now, stick with ext3 unless you've got a massive drive02:13
cipher421aw man!02:13
wizardslovakok02:13
cipher421ext4 = much better performance02:13
jeeveswizardslovak, I wasn't able to recover my ext4 drive with a live CD the last time02:13
cipher421interesting02:14
wizardslovakso maybe thats why i couldnt do it this time02:14
jeevescipher421, it depends on the size of the drive though!!!02:14
cipher421anywayz thanks jeeves, goodluck wizardslovak02:14
jeevescipher421, np. I've got a mickey of rum, I'll be better in a few02:14
cipher421schweet02:14
jeevescipher421, lol, have a look @ www.tessawhite.ca for a good idea of who's waiting for me to get into bed02:15
cipher421i have a 20 year old hottie waiting for me myself02:16
wizardslovakok i see interesting option02:16
wizardslovakin "use as:"02:16
cipher421which is why you need to be like me and stop geekin out on here02:16
wizardslovakits called physical volume for LVM02:16
wizardslovaki got some free space ,02:16
jeevescipher421, pics?02:16
cipher421hrm02:17
jeevescipher421, lol, and she's not home yet.  she works 'till 1102:17
cipher421my server is down!02:17
cipher421hahahahaha02:17
jeevescipher421, lol, nice excuse!02:17
cipher421usually i take pride in it02:17
cipher421hold up02:17
jeevesdrop me a line.  I think you've got one of my domains.  just hit the webmaster account02:17
cipher421since this is obviously a pissing contest, i must win!02:18
wizardslovakok i got  " / , swap , /home / var and /tmp" did i forget anything?02:18
jeevescipher421, lol.02:18
jeeveswizardslovak, what are you looking for?02:18
wizardslovakif i got correct partitioning on hard drives02:19
wizardslovakits only for webserver + mysql02:19
jeeveswizardslovak, do you have one that's called /boot or /etc?02:20
wizardslovakno02:20
wizardslovakgot /boot now02:20
wizardslovakdo i need /02:21
wizardslovak??02:21
jeevesyes02:21
wizardslovakok 10gb as /02:21
wizardslovakstill got 6.5 gb free02:21
jeevescipher421, lol, no pics?02:21

cipher421i im'd you02:22
jeevescipher421, http://moseley.ca/cat.jpg02:22
wizardslovakhmm can i put /etc and /var on other hard drive?02:23
jeeveswizardslovak, sounds like you've got a REALLY messed up system.  just nuke it02:23
wizardslovakok i am doing fresh install now02:23
jeeveswizardslovak, I'd help more, but I need to see what I'm looking @02:23
wizardslovakthats why i am asking how to partitionid02:24
wizardslovakhuh ok  you looking at server with 2 hard drives02:24
wizardslovak80 gb and 160gb02:24
jeeveswhat drives do you have in the box?02:24
jeevesI'd personally leave everything but the /home dir on the 80, and mount /home on the 16002:25
wizardslovakok02:25
wizardslovakso /boot and swap on 8002:25
jeevesmake swap ~4gb, and mount /home on the 160gb, and everything else is on the8002:25
wizardslovakok02:25
wizardslovakcan you specify "Everything else?02:26
jeevesok, swap will be ~4Gb on the 80Gb drive.  Mount / on the 80 as well.  mount /home on the 160.02:27
wizardslovakhow much space should i put on /etc?02:28
jeevesdosn't matter.  it'll mount under / on the 8002:28
wizardslovakok still got 25gb free02:30
jeeveshow?02:30
wizardslovakmaybe /tmp?02:31
jeevesok, follow closlet02:31
jeeves*closley02:31
jeevesdelete EVERYTHING on both drives.02:31
wizardslovak1gb as /boot 4gb as swap 50gb as /02:31
jeevesselect the 16002:31
wizardslovaku da boss02:31
jeevescreate a new file system (ext4) on the 160.  Tell it that the mount point is "/home"02:31
wizardslovaki am following02:31
wizardslovakdone02:32
jeevesthen, on the 80, make a 4Gb partition @ the END of the disk.  set it as SWAP02:32
wizardslovakdone02:32
jeevesnow, the rest on the 80, make a new partition and format it as EXT3.02:33
jeevesthen, the mount point for that is "/"02:33
wizardslovakdone02:33
jeevesthere ya go.  keep going.02:33
wizardslovakjust because i am curious02:34
jeeves??02:34
wizardslovakcan /var be on other hard drive?02:34
jeevesNOOOO, just leave it the way I got you to set it up.  you don't need to worry about putting anything else anywhere, just go on to the next setp of the install02:35
wizardslovakok i just asked huh02:35

kaushalAny clue ?17:58
kaushalIt says "none"17:58
mcaskaushal: i think thats normal18:00
__3ies__yes, as far as i know that is right18:01
kaushalI dont see that behaviour in 8.0418:02
__3ies__because /dev is mounted in a diferent way as of 8.0418:03
kaushal__3ies__: still not understood why is it different from 8.0418:04
kaushalplease explain me with examples18:04
__3ies__ok18:05
__3ies__i am looking for some examples18:05
__3ies__it has to do with udev i think18:10
__3ies__earlier you have all dev devices created on disk18:10
__3ies__now they are gonna be created as they are used by something or someone18:11

kaushal__3ies__: if you can point me to the document it would be really helpful18:16
__3ies__i am working on it but i dont find anything yet for now18:16
__3ies__for example this18:18
__3ies__http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man7/udev.7.html18:18
__3ies__or this18:23
__3ies__At bootup, the /dev directory should get the 'devtmpfs' filesystem 60     mounted. Udev will manage permissions and ownership of the kernel-created 61     device nodes, and possibly create additional symlinks. If needed, udev also 62     works on an empty 'tmpfs' filesystem, but some static device nodes like 63     /dev/null, /dev/console, /dev/kmsg are needed to be able to start udev itself.18:23

thesheff17so is that what you added?20:17
lord_koalait seems so20:17
thesheff17that doesn't look like a wireless card20:17
lord_koalathis is the chipset.. how can I see my driver20:18
thesheff17linux isn't like windows with drivers really...the kernel which drives hardware has built int support for devices20:18
lord_koalamine is d-link 520.. I think it has intersil prism chipset20:18
thesheff17do you also have a ethernet adapter in the machine?20:19
lord_koalatheseff17: what should I do than :)20:19
lord_koalayes. ethernet is there20:19
thesheff17so the device you are trying to configure is a d-link 520 wireless adapter20:21
thesheff17the first thing is you have to make sure lspci sees it20:21
thesheff17then once it can see it you can mess around with /etc/network/interfaces20:21
thesheff17yea it is kinda tough sometimes you have a device with a brand name but the chip on it comes from another vendor like intel or whoever20:22
lord_koalahow can I understand if lspci is seeing it or not?20:23
thesheff17kinda have to just match them up20:23
thesheff17ah ok...so ethernet and wireless adapters are separated...so here is the output of mine20:24
thesheff1709:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)20:24
thesheff170c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)20:24
thesheff17so it looks like this is your wireless adapter:  network: intersil corp. prism 2.5 rev01  --- ethernet: intel 82540EM gigabit ethernet card ver0220:24
thesheff17when you do lspci you see one that says ethernet right? and that is different then Network20:25
thesheff17also what version of ubuntu are you using?20:25
thesheff17this page might also help determining if your wireless adapter is supported: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported20:26
lord_koala8.04 lts hardy20:27
thesheff17k20:27
lord_koalamine seems to be intersil corporation prism 2.520:27
thesheff17so that is the chipset...it doesn't really matter...as long as it sees it.20:28
lord_koalaso it sees it.. I think it is disabled.. but when I try ifconfig wlan0 up, it doesn't work20:29
thesheff17what do you have in /etc/network/interfaces20:30
thesheff17it needs to be configured in there20:30
thesheff17prior to doing ifup ifdown or /etc/init.d/networking restart20:30
thesheff17also if your wireless network is using security all that has to go in that file as well20:31
thesheff17wep or wpa or whatever you are using20:31
thesheff17the problem is most poeople don't put wireless adapters inside a server edition of ubuntu20:32
thesheff17the desktop version has a network manager that takes care of all this through the GUI20:32
thesheff17for you20:32
lord_koalathis is the server :( I looked ar interfaces.. my wlan0 wasn't there and I put wlan0 auto20:33
lord_koalaoh.. so.. I need to configure /etc/network/interface..  could you tell me how I can input password and wpa there?20:34
lord_koalathesheff17: I only have eth0 and lo configured in /etc/netwrok/interfaces - it seems to be the problem is here.20:37
thesheff17yea I'm trying to find you a good example on google...but the docs are hard to find:20:39
thesheff17here is one that looks pretty good:20:39
thesheff17auto wlan020:39
thesheff17iface wlan0 inet dhcp20:39
thesheff17wireless-mode Managed20:39
thesheff17wireless-essid myssid20:39
thesheff17wireless-key s:mywepkey20:39
thesheff17try to add that all to your /etc/network/interface file20:39
thesheff17/etc/network/interfaces I mean20:39
lord_koalaI use wap..20:40
lord_koalawpa2 actually20:40
lord_koalais it still aftes optipn "s"?20:40
thesheff17sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant20:42
thesheff17prob need that20:42
thesheff17https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo20:43
thesheff17it is pretty confusing but with some tweaking you can get it working20:43
thesheff17avoid the network manager since you are on the server20:43

=== toshade is now known as \shade\
lord_koalado I need internet connection to use apt-get for wpa :)20:44
thesheff17haha yea20:46
lord_koalait defies the logic :)20:46
lord_koalabut at least my wi-fi should be working if I configured right.. password is a later step..20:46
thesheff17hehe I know...apt-get used to default to the cdrom but they have gotten away from that.20:46
thesheff17yes20:47
thesheff17password goes in a config file some where20:47
lord_koalaI edites /etc/network/interfaces and restarted the machine20:47
thesheff17you can do /etc/init.d/networking restart20:47
thesheff17to restart all networking interfaces20:47
thesheff17and then use ifconfig to see all them20:47
lord_koalawhat about thiswireless-key s:mywepkey20:47
thesheff17I would remove that and follow the instructions for useing WPA20:48
lord_koalamywepkey isn't the actual password20:48
thesheff17well yea but it is not for wep20:48
=== \shade\ is now known as shade\
lord_koalaI stıll see eth and lo only when I look at ifconfig20:50
lord_koalaseems hopeless20:50
thesheff17well there are tools for searching for wireless networks...it isn't hopeless but definitely harder to do on a server.20:51
thesheff17w/ no GUI20:51
lord_koalawhen I use restart it fails to start wlan020:52
lord_koalait says error for wireless request "Set Mode"20:54
lord_koalaset failed on device wlan0: operation not supported20:54
thesheff17hmmm...yea it is hard to find the exact settings because everyone uses the GUI20:55
thesheff17I would get those wpasupplicant installed20:56
thesheff17and play around with the tools20:56
thesheff17and see if can even discover the SID around you20:56
lord_koalawhat is SID20:57
thesheff17SID is short for security identifier which is assigned to your router that is broadcasting its name20:59
=== shade\ is now known as {shade}
lord_koalathesheff17: thanks alot.. you gave me the basics.. now it is up to me to solve the rest :)20:59
thesheff17yea try to discover the networks and see what you can get working...also sometimes it may not be wlan0 and ath0 sometimes....there should be a tool that tells you which is which but I forget which tool that is21:00
thesheff17the reason they are different is because they have different kernel drivers for each21:00
thesheff17if you need more help just come back to this board or post on the ubuntu forums...but the ubuntu forums seem to go un answered for allot of my questions :-/21:01
lord_koalayeah.. forums are not the best place for specific questions :)21:02
thesheff17hehe the other thing you could do is bridge a laptop wireless adapter to the ethernet adapter and the plug the ethernet adapter from laptop into the server21:02
kaushalhi again21:02
thesheff17I have had to do this before because I didn't have an internet connection on the server.21:02
kaushalman mount says (The customary choice none is less fortunate: the error message `none busy' from umount can be confusing.)21:02
kaushalwhat does that mean ?21:03
kaushalin context to my query regarding "none" device label on 10.04 server21:03
thesheff17kaushal: what are you trying to mount21:04
thesheff17what kind of share?21:04
kaushalthesheff17: let me pastebin it21:04
kaushalhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/432978/21:05
thesheff17I guess that has to do with your tmpfs21:08
thesheff17file systems21:08
thesheff17I have never seen that before21:09
kaushalyes21:09
kaushalstrange for me too21:09
thesheff17why so many tmpfs ?21:09
kaushalwhy it works for 8.04 and not on 10.0421:10
kaushalI mean the device label21:10
thesheff17this one is on the 10.04 but not on the 8.0421:11
thesheff17none         tmpfs     36G     0   36G   0% /lib/init/rw21:11
thesheff17maybe that is the one causing the error21:11
thesheff17I have to run...but I will be back on later...kaushal sorry couldn't help more21:12
Pirate_Huntercan someone look at my fstab -  http://pastebin.com/3bcHr1kS - and tell me why my quota settings on / are not being applied when running command quotacheck -avugm which outputs quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option21:12

enavim noob... how FTP manage accounts and passwords?21:36
enavfor example my linux user is /home/enav21:36
failoverenav, why you need to use FTP  ?21:37
enavif i want to connect to my server with another name i need to create anoter linux account????21:37
failovercan't you stay with ssh ?21:37
enavyes i can... but is just a question to understand how FTP works21:38
guntbertenav: by default it uses the accounts in the system21:38
enavi finished a text here: http://is.gd/c7SuC   but this says nothing about create new FTP account or something like that21:39
enavso to resume this  SSH  and  FTP just remote connections and works with system accounts?21:39
failoverby default!21:40
failoverbut you could set another source for users !21:40
failovera mysqldb, ldap, etc..21:40
enavi want to be able to create an account and a password and limit that user to one folder21:41
failoversearch for virtual users vsftpd for samples !21:41
dominicdinadaenav are you using samba ? that is simple then21:42
enavno im buiding a web server with ubuntu  but im still learning21:43
dominicdinadaenav: samba will take care of that as well21:44
enavover internet?21:44
dominicdinadaon the same network21:44
enavhum21:44
enavi want to set my server simple   just give the webmaster the domain, the ftp server address ftp user and ftp password... simple21:46
dominicdinadawhile it is possible to do with ubuntu server you can do that with any desktop os also you just need a ftp server( software )21:47
enavi made a couple o f web sites in the pass... so i want to made my web server works like those i used in the past21:47
enavmaybe i need to google vstftpd  for further information21:50
dominicdinadayou gonna host it to the internet from your server? are you going to use a domain forwarder or just have people connect via your ip?21:50
enavyep a DNS pointing to my static IP21:51
dominicdinadayou most likely have a dynamic ip that doesnt change ... :) but then dont forget to open the port on your router for ftp,http etc :)21:52
enavok21:53
enavim reading the information on the ubuntu website... this is good and vague same time21:53
dominicdinadadont forget to let me know when you get your site up =)21:54
enavroger amigo21:54
AdylasHello ! Is there a 10.04 version of jeos ?22:23
enavi forwarded port 80 to my local ip but i cant acces my web server from outside... what is wrong?22:27
zatunkSo... I'm about to upgrade my home-server from an old 600Mhz desktop from the stoneage to something more up to date, my plan is to build a media-center desktop with virtual instances of ubuntu-server, one for development and one for production. Is this a particularly bad idea, to host a production server on top of a desktop os in the manner of performance and/or security?22:50
cloakableIt may not make much sense running a desktop machine 24/7 as a home server. You might be better served with an Atom D510 box as a dedicated home server.22:52
cloakableIt'll save you plenty of money in the long run versus running a desktop 24/722:53
enavim new on this... every time i restart my apache this show me this output but i don know whether this is good or bad http://pastebin.com/TaA9QyCF22:55
* f1yback bbl22:58
zatunkcloakable: heh, I was rather thinking the new athlon II x3 45W to have some muscles under the hood :/23:02
cloakablezatunk: What for? home server is a very low-power situation. My server rarely uses more than ~5% CPU over all four cores.23:05
zatunkcloakable: yeah I know, just me being stubber, when I deploy my production services, I'm of course better of to rent space at a hosting company...23:14
zatunkenav: maybe this will help: http://serverfault.com/questions/1405/apache2-startup-warning-namevirtualhost-80-has-no-virtualhosts23:22
mikedep333hey, I'm planning on copying my ubuntu 10.04 install from one partition to another. Should I go into a live cd/usb environment, create the new filesystem, use the tar command as listed here: http://www.tiplib.com/174/copy-filesystem-another-filesystem-tar, edit fstab for the new UUID, and then reinstall grub2?23:23
enavthanks mate23:23
enavwhat is a PAM cession ???23:48
theacolyteSo, how do I get into single user mode in 10.04?23:57
