| theacolyte | WhatI've found in 10.04 is if you do anything that interferes with the boot process, like in my instance, incorrectly adding an IP to a network interface, and you reboot | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| theacolyte | You can't boot anymore | 00:04 |
| theacolyte | Not to sound unconstructive, but that seems pretty awful to me | 00:04 |
| theacolyte | And now I can't get into single user mode to fix it | 00:04 |
| theacolyte | So I'd be more than glad ffor some suggestions. | 00:05 |
| theacolyte | wonderful | 00:08 |
| theacolyte | How do I access the drive on my ubutnu server if I can't boot? | 00:30 |
| theacolyte | I need to edit /etc/network | 00:30 |
| theacolyte | since apparently that broke it | 00:30 |
| Smeh | ok, in bug reports / install guides etc for 10.04 i keep coming across people refering to choosing "advanced" at the end of the installer where you can choose / check what drive grub is going to be installed to | 01:59 |
| Smeh | but don't see any evidence of any advanced option myself? :| | 02:00 |
| Smeh | also, on a tangentially related note, say i'm aiming for a LAMP server with x-windows gui, which makes more sense | 02:03 |
| Smeh | starting with server and installing X, or using desktop and installing the lamp services? | 02:03 |

| cloakable | egsome: shorewall is a program. it's in the ubuntu repo | 13:33 |
| egsome | cloakable, good | 13:34 |
| cloakable | egsome: but it isn't a fire-and-forget solution like ipmasq... it needs configuring. | 13:35 |
| egsome | cloakable, What do you recommend for me ? i only need the server to act as router, i need to restrict web access to some sites, and do more like that jobs | 13:36 |
| cloakable | egsome: hmmm. not sure. I don't know how to restrict access | 13:37 |
| egsome | cloakable, no problem, but generally what do you recommend ? and access restrict and suck jobs are done by iptables, no problems | 13:38 |

I want to setup my first root server, both for fun but also to start building cool web apps with tools I like to use and without any limitations from web hosters; I am at a point where a simple LAMP configuration is not enough. | 18:38 |
| mr_daniel | but the problem is: I never owned a root server, and I don't know where to start? | 18:39 |
| mr_daniel | I hope you guys can give me some tips where I can start, maybe | 18:40 |
| mr_daniel | a good book | 18:40 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: apt-get update && apt-get install apache2 && apt-get install mysql-server && apt-get install php5 && apt-get install phpmyadmin | 18:40 |
| mr_daniel | Hypnoz: :) | 18:41 |
| mr_daniel | wait, why not use aptitude? | 18:41 |
| Hypnoz | because aptitude takes longer to type than apt-get of course | 18:41 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: after you've installed the LAMP stack, and have a more specific question, that might be good | 18:43 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: just asking how to create a server that hosts a webpage is too broad, and something that should probably be googled for since it takes quite a few steps | 18:43 |
| mr_daniel | I guess you are right Hypnoz | 18:44 |
| Hypnoz | is "googled" a recognized verb of the english language yet? | 18:45 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: really creating the web hosting server isn't the hard part. programming the site in php/javascript/etc is what takes skill | 18:46 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: there are some frameworks that might be worth learning like cakephp or django | 18:47 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: or maybe installing something like wordpress | 18:47 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: something like wordpress would cut waaay down on the web programming aspect required | 18:47 |
| mr_daniel | I want to go further | 18:48 |
| mr_daniel | for example I want to build a web app with CoucDB, or with J2EE, and want to be prepared for high traffic, etc. | 18:48 |
| Hypnoz | mr_daniel: why couchdb instead of mysql? | 18:51 |
| mr_daniel | because I want to learn new things | 18:51 |
| mr_daniel | and CoudhDB is cool :) and sounds very interesting | 18:52 |
| Hypnoz | try django I got a friend that loves it, and its a very popular thing to put on a resume | 18:52 |
| Hypnoz | and you'd get to learn python too | 18:52 |
| mr_daniel | never used django, but I used python for a few things and I like the language | 18:54 |
| vkramar | I have some troubles enabling PHP in userdir on 10.04. Already tried both /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf and /etc/apache2/conf.d/php-in-homedirs.conf ways as described on wiki, but no success. Can anybody point me right way? | 19:02 |

| storrgie | anyone using tomato firmware? | 19:08 |
| RoyK | what is that ? | 19:08 |
| storrgie | router firmware for wrt routers | 19:08 |
| vraa | storrgie, i use tomato firmware, i switched from dd-wrt becaue dd-wrt was too complicated | 19:14 |
| RoyK | how many cpus does linux support these days? | 19:15 |
| RoyK | 256 or so? | 19:15 |
| storrgie | vraa: it seems that all of my traffic, when QoS is on I only get 10% thoroughput | 19:15 |
| vraa | maybe your qos settings are not correct? did you set your inbound and outbound speeds correctly? btw i dont think this is related to ubuntu-server :) | 19:15 |
| storrgie | vraa: I know its not related to ubuntu-server but tomato has ZERO irc community | 19:16 |
| vraa | RoyK can't you use BFS for more than 1000 core support? | 19:16 |
| storrgie | I cant find anyone to help me | 19:16 |
| vraa | :) try to double check your inbound/outbound maxes, also check how you are classifying your traffic | 19:16 |
| RoyK | vraa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_Fuck_Scheduler? | 19:16 |
| vraa | yah | 19:17 |
| vraa | i believe it's designed more NUMA or something | 19:17 |
| RoyK | what a nice name :) | 19:17 |
| therian | is it any good? | 19:17 |
| vraa | if it ain't broke, dont fix it | 19:22 |
| vraa | in regards to "is it any good" | 19:22 |
| vraa | if you have 500 cores and things aren't working well, i'm sure BFS would be a viable thing to try out | 19:22 |
| vraa | but me, on my single core pIII laptop? i'll stick with whatever is default | 19:22 |
| RoyK | just installed this 16-core thing - it'll be interesting to see how the load is distributed when they start the models | 19:23 |
| vraa | dual 8core opteron right RoyK ? | 19:24 |
| RoyK | yes | 19:24 |
| RoyK | 64 gigs of ram | 19:24 |

| ziesemer_ | I've been looking into denyhosts or fail2ban to help prevent some server attacks. Both appear to only work by parsing log outputs from /var/log/syslog, etc. Isn't there a more efficient method? I.E., is there a syslog "consumer" that can be used? | 20:01 |
| aoeuhtns | RoyK, 48GB of swap?! | 20:01 |
| RoyK | no, 16 | 20:01 |
| therian | my bad | 20:01 |
| RoyK | but ubuntu 10.04 comes with this compcache thing, swapping to compressed memory | 20:01 |
| aoeuhtns | interesting | 20:02 |
| RoyK | planning to use some SSDs for the swap | 20:03 |
| RoyK | some of the models can use way more memory than the 4GB per core that's in there now | 20:03 |

| bluethundr_ | I have updated my serial number in my dns db and restarted bind and made sure my mx was correct, but when I use dig -mx it doesn't see the mx record | 21:45 |
| bluethundr_ | http://pastebin.com/KH3adera | 21:45 |
| RoyK | perhaps $ORIGIN hasn't been set before the MX line | 21:46 |
| RoyK | set $ORIGIN to your domain name in the start | 21:47 |
| enav | i need help.... i want to limit a SSH user to specific folder "/home/www".... i have 2 days trying to do this reading manuals and articles but nothing works | 21:47 |
| RoyK | $ORIGIN mydom.tld | 21:47 |
| guntbert | bluethundr_: all on the same machine? | 21:47 |
| RoyK | enav: you need to chroot the user - not trivial | 21:48 |
| RoyK | enav: use a vm instead | 21:48 |
| enav | i tried that several times in several ways and still not working propertly | 21:49 |
| bluethundr_ | guntbert, yes, and this config file is an exact copy of another dns db file that works, only with the values for this machine subtituted | 21:49 |
| RoyK | enav: see message above | 21:49 |
| guntbert | bluethundr_: I asked because dns propagation can take surprising long time :-) | 21:50 |
| enav | RoyK use a vm instead??? | 21:50 |
| RoyK | enav: chrooting ssh is not trivial | 21:50 |
| enav | RoyK what that means | 21:50 |
| RoyK | either use other access methods or use a virtual machine | 21:50 |
| bluethundr_ | this one works and I can't see any substantive difference between this one and the one that doesn't | 21:51 |
| bluethundr_ | http://pastebin.com/dVDVRyWn | 21:51 |

| guntbert | bluethundr_: ok - sorry to hear - no solution from me either | 21:52 |
| bluethundr_ | RoyK: on it, I'll let ya know | 21:52 |
| enav | RoyK i though chroot limit a specific user to a specific folder... but this not works | 21:54 |
| RoyK | as I said, chrooting ssh sessions is not trivial | 21:54 |
| RoyK | use a vm for that | 21:54 |
| enav | RoyK what do you mean with trivial??? | 21:55 |
| * RoyK points enav to dictionary.com | 21:55 | |
| enav | RoyK do you mean chroot is not easy to configure? | 21:58 |
| RoyK | not for ssh clients | 21:59 |
| RoyK | what are your needs? | 21:59 |
| RoyK | isolating all clients inside a jail? | 21:59 |
| enav | RoyK do you know a good text or website to chroot ssh users??? | 21:59 |
| RoyK | if so, why? | 21:59 |
| enav | well i have an Admin account and a Webmaster account... i just whatn to jail webmaster accoutn to "/home/www" folder that is all | 22:01 |
| enav | i have 2 days trying to do this | 22:01 |
| RoyK | use ftp | 22:01 |
| qman__ | no, use sftp-only | 22:01 |
| RoyK | ftp over ssl is secure | 22:02 |
| RoyK | and trivial to configure | 22:02 |
| RoyK | ftp over ssh means the user will be given access to whatever's open | 22:02 |
| RoyK | enav: I'd guess securing your system, home directories and so on, will be easier | 22:03 |
| RoyK | just give www or whatever access to the files needed | 22:03 |
| qman__ | not if you configure ssh correctly | 22:03 |
| qman__ | recent versions can limit it to sftp and chroot right in the sshd config | 22:04 |
| enav | im give up with SFTP | 22:04 |
| qman__ | no special jailing setups required | 22:04 |
| RoyK | how do you chroot ssd/sftp? | 22:04 |
| enav | let me try that you say now | 22:04 |
| RoyK | qman__: url? | 22:04 |
| qman__ | I'm looking for the doc | 22:04 |
| qman__ | http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/590 | 22:05 |
| RoyK | qman__: thanks | 22:07 |
| qman__ | it's way easier than the old style jailing | 22:07 |
| RoyK | seems so, yes | 22:07 |
| RoyK | thought it was harder | 22:07 |
| qman__ | the version of openssh in hardy is older and doesn't support that | 22:09 |
| qman__ | but the current versions do | 22:09 |
| qman__ | I've set up a few old style jails with jailkit, no simple task | 22:10 |
| enav | qman__ is a hell | 22:10 |
| enav | qman__ your article look great but can i use this to jail an user not a group to a specific folder not a home folder???? | 22:12 |
| qman__ | enav, yes | 22:13 |
| enav | qman__: Match group sftponly ---> Match user webmaster really? | 22:14 |
| qman__ | not sure if that's the syntax, but you can match per user | 22:14 |
| qman__ | let me find more information | 22:14 |
| enav | wait a sec | 22:15 |
| enav | your article work for you? i mean did you try it before? | 22:15 |
| qman__ | http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2006/09/05/limiting-access-to-openssh-directives/ | 22:15 |
| qman__ | Match User username | 22:16 |
| qman__ | the way Match blocks work, is they include all of the directives below it until there is another Match block or the end of the file | 22:17 |
| qman__ | so place them at the bottom | 22:17 |
| enav | ok let me try again | 22:17 |
| enav | because i did this a lot of times | 22:17 |
| qman__ | the one caveat I'm noticing is that the chroot directory must be owned by root | 22:18 |
| qman__ | other than that, it's straightforward | 22:18 |
| enav | ok | 22:18 |
| tannerb | Wow, I hadn't looked at doing chrooted stuff securely for years and that's about a bah-jillion times easier. | 22:20 |
| qman__ | you're telling me | 22:20 |
| qman__ | the old way was a total pain | 22:20 |
| tannerb | Yeah, and by the time one would get close to getting it working properly, you'd have to find another goat to sacrifice. | 22:21 |
| enav | im feeling the pain now | 22:21 |
| enav | qman__ chek this http://pastebin.com/YmgedfRg | 22:25 |
| qman__ | that's correct | 22:25 |
| qman__ | but where's the rest of the configuration file? | 22:26 |
| enav | i just copy paste an little section | 22:26 |
| qman__ | ok | 22:26 |
| qman__ | I noticed that the default configuration has this in it | 22:28 |
| qman__ | Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server | 22:28 |
| qman__ | you will want to change that over/remove it | 22:28 |
| enav | yes you ned to change it | 22:28 |
| qman__ | two Subsystem sftp lines will break it for sure | 22:28 |
| enav | i delet the original 1 and add the new 1 | 22:28 |
| qman__ | ok | 22:29 |
| qman__ | then, chown root:root /home/www, and service ssh restart | 22:30 |
