| lambrecht | i have a problem on karmic some sevices dont start like apache zabbix ... they are configured to start | 08:36 |
| MrPancake | lambrecht: Logs? | 09:04 |
| lambrecht | yes | 09:04 |
| lambrecht | what logs | 09:04 |

| lambrecht | my syslog | 09:09 |

| lambrecht | mrpancake are you there | 09:18 |
| lambrecht | anyone awake ?? | 09:28 |
| RoyK | somehow | 09:46 |
| lambrecht | hehe | 09:46 |
| lambrecht | i have a problem some services dont start at startup | 09:46 |
| RoyK | have you tried starting them manually and then checked the logs? | 09:47 |
| lambrecht | yes i started them manualy | 09:48 |
| RoyK | also, did they start earlier - if so, what did you change? | 09:48 |
| RoyK | does it work when you start them manually? | 09:48 |
| lambrecht | yes they started earlyer | 09:48 |
| lambrecht | yes it works then | 09:48 |
| lambrecht | http://nopaste.info/bd62e0df50.html for my syslog but there is nothing weird i think | 09:49 |
| lambrecht | the services are also in /etc/rc2.d | 09:49 |
| lambrecht | apache2 dont start zabbix dont start webmin dont start | 09:50 |
| lambrecht | mysql shh bin starts | 09:50 |
| lambrecht | when i lokk in webmin all the services that meant to start are configured to start at statup | 09:50 |
| RoyK | !webmin | 09:50 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 09:50 |
| lambrecht | a ok | 09:51 |
| lambrecht | maybe webmin is the problem then | 09:51 |
| RoyK | doesn't seem very likely if they're in /etc/rc2.d | 09:52 |
| lambrecht | yes its verry strange | 09:52 |
| lambrecht | every time i have to start them manualy | 09:52 |
| RoyK | webmin might have messed up something, though | 09:53 |
| lambrecht | hmm damn | 09:54 |
| * RoyK uses the command line | 09:54 | |
| lambrecht | i know hehe i dont realy use it to change things | 09:55 |
| lambrecht | can i uninstall it so all my setting are fine again | 09:55 |
| RoyK | ls -l /etc/rc2.d/*apache* | 09:56 |
| RoyK | what does that show? | 09:56 |
| lambrecht | lrwxrwxrwx root root /etc/rc2.d/s91apache2 -> ../init.d/apache2 | 09:59 |
| RoyK | should be right | 09:59 |
| lambrecht | yes | 09:59 |
| lambrecht | verry weird | 09:59 |

| zoran119 | hi people | 11:35 |
| zoran119 | we have a ubuntu server at work | 11:35 |
| zoran119 | running as a virtual machine on hyper-v | 11:35 |
| zoran119 | and every day (a couple times a day) the clock gets 'stuck' | 11:36 |
| zoran119 | it just loops within a 5 second period | 11:36 |
| zoran119 | any idea why this is any how to fix it? | 11:36 |
| zoran119 | we have other virtual machines (centos) on hyper-v and they have no time issues | 11:37 |
| sh1ny | have you tried with virtual flavor kernel in the ubuntu server ? | 11:47 |
| sh1ny | i have one such server on hyper-v ( as part of 2008 R2 ) and it works just fine | 11:48 |
| zoran119 | sh1ny: virtual flavor kernel? | 11:49 |
| sh1ny | apt-get install linux-image-virtual | 11:49 |
| zoran119 | sh1ny: cool... i'll try that | 11:57 |
| sh1ny | make sure you install it first, then boot with it, then remove the other kernel...also if you have an older kernel , keep it so you can failsafe to it | 12:00 |
| zoran119 | sh1ny: why do i have to remove the other kernel? | 12:09 |
| sh1ny | what would you need it for ? except for taking space :P | 12:10 |
| sh1ny | just try how it works with the virtual one | 12:10 |
| sh1ny | if it works ok, remove the default one | 12:11 |

| egsome | How can i monitor temperature of CPU and HDD of my ubuntu server ? | 12:42 |
| sh1ny | aptitude install lm-sensors | 12:42 |
| sh1ny | sensors-detect | 12:42 |
| egsome | is it command line or GUI ? | 12:43 |
| sh1ny | command line | 12:43 |
| sh1ny | you said "server" | 12:43 |
| egsome | sh1ny, yeah, so i'm asking | 12:43 |
| RoyK | egsome: using a gui for your server? :) | 12:43 |
| egsome | RoyK: NO :), i'm asking as i know that lm-sensors is a GUI only, but now i know that i can use it from command line | 12:44 |
| sh1ny | egsome, you're wrong | 12:44 |
| egsome | sh1ny, yeah, thanks | 12:44 |
| RoyK | "sensors" is the command used on the command-line | 12:44 |
| sh1ny | he needs to "sensors-detect" first :) | 12:45 |
| RoyK | yeah | 12:45 |
| RoyK | and loading some mods | 12:45 |
| RoyK | and praying to some remote god that the drivers work correctly | 12:46 |
| egsome | i'm loading them now | 12:46 |
| RoyK | lmsensors has a few bugs | 12:46 |
| sh1ny | few ? :P | 12:46 |
| RoyK | that is, hardware sensors aren't really standardised | 12:46 |
| sh1ny | well unless you have something like IPMI , your only chance is lmsensors ;) | 12:47 |
| RoyK | even ipmi is quite buggy, last I checked | 12:47 |
| RoyK | sh1ny: "a few" != "few" | 12:48 |
| sh1ny | works fine here, except it does not display my cpu temps with numbers just "low" , "high" etc :P | 12:48 |
| egsome | i got it working now, thanks guys | 12:49 |
| sh1ny | you should also install hddtemp for hdd's temps ( obviously ) | 12:49 |
| sh1ny | well at least i do so | 12:49 |
| egsome | sh1ny, thanks, going to do | 12:49 |
| egsome | How should i use hddtemp ? | 12:51 |
| sh1ny | hddtemp /dev/sda | 12:51 |
| egsome | sh1ny, worked !, thanks | 12:52 |
| sh1ny | yw :) | 12:52 |
| egsome | sorry but another question, can i get these temperatures inside webmin ? is there any module that do that ? | 12:53 |
| sh1ny | i have no idea ;( never used webmin | 12:54 |
| RoyK | !webmin | 12:54 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 12:54 |
| egsome | !ebox | 12:54 |
| ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 12:54 |
| egsome | sh1ny, maybe change to eBox, anyway thanks | 12:55 |

| sh1ny | most likely in 10.10 | 14:37 |

| TJ- | hi guys | 14:39 |
| TJ- | there was a power failue and long story short the only that doesnt work since then is my pptpd server | 14:40 |
| binBASH | sh1ny: So only I can do is build my own package I guess | 14:40 |
| sh1ny | binBASH, yes, that's what i usually do | 14:40 |
| sh1ny | binBASH, try using the debian/ from the existing package and compile the new one with that | 14:41 |
| sh1ny | or use launchpad ( even better ) | 14:41 |
| TJ- | it used to work fine until the power failure, anyway ive been searching everywhere and it seems the server might have booted into a differnet kernel etc, does anyone know how to get pptpd and the kernel to play nice? I keep getting CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre)=(5,6) and all the forums and googles dont seem to have a solution for me.... | 14:41 |
| binBASH | sh1ny: Ok, I have to find out how to do it then ;) | 14:42 |
| sh1ny | well | 14:42 |
| binBASH | just switched from CentOS | 14:42 |
| sh1ny | just start with building a package on your pc | 14:42 |
| sh1ny | aptitude install ubuntu-dev-tools | 14:43 |
| sh1ny | apt-get build-dep varnish | 14:43 |
| sh1ny | apt-get source varnish ( as a normal user ) | 14:43 |
| sh1ny | then get the folder "debian" in the source dir that appears and move it to the source dir of the new version of varnish | 14:43 |
| RoyK | binBASH: you can just compile it yourself | 14:44 |
| sh1ny | then | 14:44 |
| sh1ny | debuild | 14:44 |
| RoyK | not much of a hassle | 14:44 |
| binBASH | RoyK: Well I don't want to put my system in an unclean state ;) | 14:44 |
| binBASH | and I have to put that package on some more servers | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | RoyK, i don't usually recommend to people to "just compile" because many often forget what have they compiled, where and how did they install it etc etc. | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | so binBASH play around with building deb packages | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | it's easy | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | then try launchpad | 14:45 |
| binBASH | sh1ny: thanks I'll try that | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | i am using it for some packages for my servers | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | and i have a little over 150 servers, of which 70 are ubuntu | 14:45 |
| sh1ny | so "just compiling" won't cut it | 14:45 |
| binBASH | what tool are you using to administrate these? | 14:46 |
| binBASH | puppet? | 14:46 |
| sh1ny | puppet and zenoss for monitoring, tho i think of switching to zabbix and bcfg2 | 14:46 |
| sh1ny | but changes like this take a lot of time :) | 14:47 |
| binBASH | I will give Kokki a try http://samuelks.com/kokki/ | 14:47 |

| sh1ny | if you have your own gpg key | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | hm | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | no | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | let's start from far | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | if you did what i told you, you have compiled 2.1.5 | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | but the package gets build for 2.1.0 | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | so to change that | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | go into the source dir and do | 14:56 |
| sh1ny | dch -i | 14:57 |
| sh1ny | it will open the debian/changelog file with the preferred editor | 14:57 |
| sh1ny | where the asterisk is, add something like | 14:57 |
| sh1ny | * New Upstream Release | 14:57 |
| sh1ny | and | 14:57 |
| sh1ny | bump the version to 2.1.5 | 14:58 |
| sh1ny | and change the name + email | 14:58 |
| sh1ny | then save+exit | 14:59 |
| sh1ny | then rebuild | 14:59 |
| sh1ny | if you have a gpg key that matches the email it will sign the package with it | 15:00 |
| binBASH | don't have ;) | 15:00 |
| binBASH | think I have to create one | 15:00 |
| binBASH | because it fails still now because of no key | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | if you're on a desktop use, Applications -> Accessories -> Password and Encryption Keys | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | it fails but it still builds it's | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | it* | 15:01 |
| binBASH | No I'm not | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | just not signed | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | ehm well | 15:01 |
| binBASH | ahh ok | 15:01 |
| binBASH | Np, if it's not signed | 15:01 |
| binBASH | I have a .deb now | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | the packages are in toplevel dir | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | :) | 15:01 |
| binBASH | with correct version | 15:01 |
| sh1ny | man i do like when people understand what i'm saying, mostly they don't because of my crappy explanation skills | 15:02 |
| sh1ny | :) | 15:02 |
| binBASH | ok that was not too hard | 15:02 |

| ivoks | impi: explore... apt-get supports pining | 15:38 |
| ivoks | pinning | 15:38 |
| ivoks | bah | 15:38 |
| lfaraone | internalkernel: in combination with pinning, that is. | 15:38 |
| slipperychicken | bluetoothd writing to disk @ 23kb/s ? | 15:38 |
| lfaraone | slipperychicken: what about it? | 15:40 |
| lfaraone | In http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html, the use of the --tmpfs is mentioned, but when using it with vmbuilder I get "vmbuilder: error: no such option: --tmpfs". Am I doing something wrong, or incorrectly following the instructions? | 15:40 |
| impi | thanks guys, | 15:40 |
| impi | let me read abit | 15:40 |
| hyperlinx | anyone who can help me about ssh public key ?? | 15:41 |
| sh1ny | lfaraone, are you using this with kvm ? | 15:42 |
| smoser | hyperlinx, don't ask to ask, just ask | 15:42 |
| lfaraone | sh1ny: Yes. The command in question is "sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite lucid --flavour virtual --arch i386 -o --libvirt qemu:///system --mirror=http://192.168.122.1/ubuntu --tmpfs -" | 15:43 |
| sh1ny | i'd recommend using virt-install instead of vmbuilder | 15:43 |
| sh1ny | i found vmbuilder buggy and didn't quite grasp what it's trying to do | 15:43 |
| lfaraone | sh1ny: from what I can tell, it debootstraps then creates a VM image. | 15:44 |

| slipperychicken | lfaraone, why would it do that constantly ? | 15:47 |
| linxeh | Hi there - I'm moving a legacy system from a Windows server to a newer linux host, but I need to have a directory that will contain between 250,000 and 1,000,000 subdirectories (at least until we can fix the way the files are stored). what filesystem should I be looking at using? reiserfs ? | 15:47 |
| ScottK | Whatever your problem, it's unlikley reiserfs is the answer. | 15:48 |
| lfaraone | slipperychicken: no idea. | 15:48 |
| ScottK | Personally, I prefer my file systems maintained. | 15:48 |
| sh1ny | lfaraone, well i might be unable to provide you with help about vmbuilder, but i'd really suggest you look at virt-install . If you decide to do so, let me know and i'll help as much as i can | 15:49 |
| lfaraone | sh1ny: okay. | 15:49 |
| linxeh | ScottK: well, as I said, I need to have a directory with that number of subdirectories; ext4 caps out at 64k, though there is talk about some nlink or something, but it appears to be new | 15:49 |
| lfaraone | sh1ny: I'll take a look at in a bit, off to lunch. | 15:49 |
| sh1ny | lfaraone, kk, have a nice lunch :) | 15:49 |
| slipperychicken | lfaraone, was this one of the app's that are not being supported anymroe ? | 15:49 |
| slipperychicken | anymore. | 15:49 |
| zul | reiserfs has a tendency to kill things as the joke goes | 15:50 |
| linxeh | arf | 15:50 |
| sh1ny | reiserfs is cool | 15:51 |
| sh1ny | until it gets ugly | 15:51 |
| sh1ny | :D | 15:51 |
| binBASH | Hi kirkland! | 15:52 |

| pmatulis | zul: that's a nasty but funny one | 15:53 |
| zul | pmatulis: i have heard worse | 15:53 |
| sh1ny | i've had one funny problem with reiserfs | 15:53 |
| sh1ny | couldn't figure it for years | 15:53 |
| sh1ny | was a server, than when shutdown from power failure would never boot | 15:54 |
| sh1ny | unless you boot with a knoppix cd | 15:54 |
| sh1ny | just boot with it first, then reboot from hdd and it worked | 15:54 |
| sh1ny | was weird | 15:54 |
| binBASH | kirkland: How to fix this issue? http://www.pastie.org/963837 | 15:56 |

| zul | ivoks: thanks...i havent gotten new email yet ;) | 15:57 |
| arch0njw | Good day. I have a problem with Ubuntu Server (8.10) running as an ESX guest. I have setup the /etc/networking/interfaces to set a static IP, but the system is not getting the correct IP. | 16:08 |
| ivoks | if it's static, it's not getting IP | 16:08 |
| ivoks | it defines it | 16:08 |
| ivoks | 8.10 isn't supported anyway :D | 16:09 |
| tooangel | Hey all, is there any possibility to download the ubuntu "branded" kernel/ramdisk images? I want to use them on an eucalyptus/ubuntu cloud | 16:09 |
| zul | tooangel: no but you can use the virtual kernel its basically the same | 16:10 |
| tooangel | virtual kernel? Not sure, what you mean | 16:11 |
| sh1ny | apt-get install linux-image-virtual | 16:11 |
| sh1ny | that's what he means | 16:11 |
| kirkland | binBASH: sorry, no, not off hand | 16:11 |
| ivoks | arch0njw: put your /etc/network/interfaces on pastebin | 16:12 |
| tooangel | ah, k - i will give it a try - thanks | 16:12 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/435016/ | 16:14 |
| ivoks | arch0njw: did you reboot after setting up network? | 16:14 |
| ivoks | arch0njw: or, at least, kill dhclient? :) | 16:15 |
| arch0njw | yes rebooted | 16:15 |
| ivoks | er... | 16:15 |
| ivoks | eth0 and eth1 | 16:15 |
| ivoks | which one do you want? :) | 16:15 |
| ivoks | you defined eth0, but ifconfig shows eth1 | 16:16 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: ha! | 16:16 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: I don't know how the device ID changed.... but that's odd | 16:17 |
| ivoks | what's odd? | 16:17 |
| ivoks | how many interfaces do you have? | 16:18 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: This VM, for reasons beyond my understanding, changed the ID of the network interface from eth0 to eth1. | 16:18 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: this VM has only one network interface | 16:19 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: now... the VM was moved recently. But that shouldn't have changed eth0 to eth1... but I am not an ESX guru | 16:19 |
| ivoks | this has nothing to do with esx | 16:19 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: thanks for being a second set of eyes on that! | 16:19 |
| ivoks | ubuntu names devices by their mac address | 16:19 |
| Tweeda | are there any guides for really minimal installs of 10.04 server? My little test VMs are fairly hefty @ 1G used on the root fs | 16:20 |
| ivoks | if for some reason you replace nic | 16:20 |
| ivoks | on boot it will be eth0, but as soon as udev kicks in, it will rename it to eth1 | 16:20 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: so if during the move of the VM if the MAC of the device changed that would have updated the eth#, right? | 16:20 |
| ivoks | look at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 16:20 |
| ivoks | arch0njw: and you should update your VM to supported operating system | 16:21 |
| ivoks | ubuntnu 8.10 is EOL | 16:21 |
| arch0njw | I though LTS releases were supported for 5 years. | 16:24 |
| binBASH | kirkland: I wonder where it takes those wrong certs | 16:25 |
| pmatulis | arch0njw: 8.10 is not an LTS release, 8.04 and 10.04 are | 16:25 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: doh. my mistake. it is 8.04 | 16:25 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: and I hope to upgrade this to 10.04 in the near future to get the latest and coolest. :) | 16:26 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: I am looking at that rules.d file. (ignorant question): what am i looking for? | 16:27 |
| ivoks | arch0njw: delete it's contents and reboot :) | 16:28 |
| ivoks | that's the easiest way out | 16:28 |
| * pmatulis has heard that this cannot be done anymore (in Lucid) | 16:28 | |
| arch0njw | ivoks: okay. will try later -- like when folks aren't using the server :D Thanks again!!!!! | 16:29 |
| ivoks | if you need new address | 16:30 |
| ivoks | just add it | 16:30 |
| ivoks | ifconfig eth1:tmp 10.26.120.7 up | 16:30 |
| ivoks | 36 :) | 16:31 |
| arch0njw | ivoks: yes. caught that oopsie. :) | 16:32 |
| LowValueTarget | Please forgive me if this has been asked before.... since lucid, I get tons of lsb-header does not support upstart... messages when I install things | 16:39 |
| LowValueTarget | doesn't matter what it is | 16:39 |
| LowValueTarget | Is that a known issue, or am I my own issue? | 16:39 |
| ivoks | upstart doesn't support lsb-headers | 16:41 |
| ivoks | ignore those warnnings | 16:41 |
| LowValueTarget | ivoks: for instance, installing vmware tools http://pastebin.com/16zPAJFC | 16:43 |
| LowValueTarget | ivoks: All that mess can be ignored? | 16:44 |
| ivoks | except the build error :) | 16:45 |
| LowValueTarget | well yes... but the lsb shizz | 16:46 |
| ivoks | yes | 16:46 |
| ivoks | ignore it | 16:46 |
| LowValueTarget | cool thanks | 16:47 |

| ne7work | or just installed one by one apache2, mysql-server etc.. | 17:20 |
| ne7work | now I ask for LAMP installation | 17:20 |
| Pici | xampp is not supported here. You should use the packages in the repos. | 17:20 |
| ne7work | this lamp install apache2, mysql-server, phpmyadmin, php5-mysql | 17:20 |
| Pici | !lamp | 17:20 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 17:20 |

| ivoks | i gave up on lamp :) | 17:24 |
| sh1ny | i gave up on proftpd | 17:24 |
| sh1ny | after 10 repeats of "the proftpd uses system users to authenticate" | 17:24 |
| sh1ny | i tried in 10 different ways | 17:25 |
| ScottK | sh1ny: Generally if you're using FTP in 2010, you're doing it wrong. | 17:27 |
| vraa | i couldn't get any ftpd working either, but i'm an idiot, so i settled instead for using Filezilla as the client (since it's cross platform) and using sftp (ssh file transfer) | 17:28 |
| sh1ny | ScottK, depends if it's for personal use or if your clients demand it | 17:28 |
| sh1ny | ScottK, i have been using sftp for more than 7-8 years already, but many can't do that for various reasons | 17:29 |
| ScottK | Generally I try to lead clients in a better direction, but certainly it's sometimes not possible to avoid it. | 17:29 |
| binBASH | here I'm running pure-ftpd | 17:29 |
| binBASH | :) | 17:29 |
| sh1ny | ScottK, i also provide ftp services for the hosting i offer, just for that | 17:29 |
| sh1ny | binBASH, let's start a proftpd vs pure-ftpd flame war ? :P | 17:30 |
| binBASH | sh1ny: Well I need pure-ftpd | 17:30 |
| binBASH | Can't use proftpd | 17:30 |
| binBASH | With pure-ftpd I can start a process right after uploading | 17:30 |
| binBASH | so if our photographers upload images they will get immediately scheduled to gearman worker processes and those will make thumbnails of the images | 17:31 |

| LowValueTarget | I setup a local server as an Ubuntu Repository Mirror using apt-mirror..... in my mirror.list file I specified defaultarch as amd64. Will this mirror architecture independent packages as well? | 19:57 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: I don't *know* - but from pure logic: a repo contains "everything" needed on an architecture, so I'd assume yes -- I have been using apt-mirror without any issues for a while now | 20:00 |
| LowValueTarget | cool thanks! | 20:00 |
| LowValueTarget | I had some permission problems earlier too... i had been messing around in the apt-mirror directory as root | 20:00 |
| LowValueTarget | i assume everything in apt-mirror needs to be owned by apt-mirror:apt-mirror | 20:01 |
| LowValueTarget | correct? | 20:01 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: yes, the first thing you mess up as root is the lock-file in var :) | 20:01 |

| LowValueTarget | i just su apt-mirror to be safe | 20:04 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: no need - use sudo -i -u apt-mirror instead -- then you issue apt-mirror (the command) | 20:05 |
| LowValueTarget | makes sense | 20:05 |
| LowValueTarget | thanks | 20:05 |
| LowValueTarget | well wait.... doesnt su do the same thing? | 20:06 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: and as aside: in #ubuntu questions about "derivatives" are not regarded well.... - so I can understand the debian people | 20:06 |
| LowValueTarget | makes sense... seems like common sense would prevail though | 20:06 |
| guntbert | !root | 20:07 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 20:07 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: generally for su that account has to have a password, with sudo not | 20:08 |
| LowValueTarget | i see | 20:08 |
| LowValueTarget | as bad as it is... im sudoed to root most of the time | 20:08 |
| LowValueTarget | everything i do generally requires sudo | 20:08 |
| LowValueTarget | if not | 20:08 |
| sh1ny | it's not bad as long as you know what you're doing | 20:08 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: don't - you get accustomed to that rather quick and inadvertently kill your system | 20:09 |
| LowValueTarget | i manage hundreds of linux systems. | 20:09 |
| sh1ny | same here, around 170 in total | 20:10 |
| sh1ny | never hurted me | 20:10 |
| LowValueTarget | a few keystrokes here and there on all these systems saves days | 20:10 |
| guntbert | sh1ny: and you *always* know what you are doing - I admire you :-)) - I make my mistakes but not as root | 20:10 |
| sh1ny | but then again, a mistake in a script can get your / deleted :) | 20:10 |
| LowValueTarget | if I didn't login as root I would sudo every command anyway | 20:10 |
| === EAS_ is now known as EAS | ||
| LowValueTarget | same thing | 20:10 |
| sh1ny | guntbert, i didnt say i make no mistakes | 20:11 |
| LowValueTarget | yeah... we use r1soft on all our systems. Good backup plan, but we dont ever really need it | 20:11 |
| LowValueTarget | i have rm'd a few dirs that i didnt want to before | 20:11 |
| LowValueTarget | ;) | 20:11 |
| sh1ny | i have rm'd / a few times | 20:11 |
| sh1ny | like 5 years ago | 20:11 |
| LowValueTarget | ouch | 20:11 |
| sh1ny | learned a lot since then | 20:11 |
| LowValueTarget | 5 years makes a lot of difference if you have yoru hands in it everyday | 20:11 |
| sh1ny | mostly to hate regexp | 20:11 |
| sh1ny | :P | 20:11 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: I'm not in a position to question your abilities - "needing root all the time" seems .... well ... strange | 20:12 |
| LowValueTarget | but yes guntbert, I advocate to all our customers to sudo and not login as root | 20:12 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: :) | 20:12 |
| LowValueTarget | guntbert: depends on what youre doing... managing multiple users, permissions etc | 20:12 |
| LowValueTarget | intalling, uninstalling | 20:12 |
| LowValueTarget | update-rc.. you get the picture | 20:12 |
| sh1ny | well i am pretty sure you have as much different scenarios as i do LowValueTarget | 20:13 |
| LowValueTarget | we are a managed hosting provider | 20:13 |
| guntbert | LowValueTarget: in that case I agree - pure server management - no "real work" :-)) | 20:13 |
| sh1ny | i have web hostings, samba file servers/PDC's, virtual machines, routers, proxies | 20:13 |
| sh1ny | all for around 100 different clients | 20:13 |
| LowValueTarget | nice | 20:13 |
| sh1ny | i have to solve problems daily | 20:13 |
| LowValueTarget | Now.... to subjects I DON'T know (which is alot ;) | 20:14 |
| LowValueTarget | Can someone point me in the right direction on how to create a deb package to distribute scripts, not binaries | 20:14 |
| LowValueTarget | super simple deb package. No make, configure, make install | 20:14 |
| sh1ny | just check out some package that does that already | 20:15 |
| sh1ny | let me think of something | 20:15 |
| LowValueTarget | know of any | 20:15 |
| ScottK | LowValueTarget: It's essentially the same just that the "compile" is copying the scripts where they should go. | 20:15 |
| sh1ny | working on that, sec :) | 20:15 |
| LowValueTarget | mplayer-skins seems to be no binaries | 20:15 |
| LowValueTarget | ill grab source of that and check | 20:15 |
| sh1ny | https://launchpad.net/~dnjl/+archive/ppa | 20:16 |
| sh1ny | dnjl-repositories | 20:16 |
| sh1ny | adds some .list and gpg keys and stuff | 20:16 |
| LowValueTarget | cool ill check that one too | 20:16 |

| gregcoit | I've got a job in rc.local that I need mysql to wait for but am unclear how init.d and init interacts in lucid... | 21:00 |
| gregcoit | any suggestons on how to tell mysql to wait for rc.local before starting? | 21:02 |
| soren | gregcoit: Remove (or comment out) the "start on" bits in /etc/init/mysql.conf and call "start mysql" at the end of rc.local. | 21:03 |
| gregcoit | soren: that seems like cheating but should work - thanks! | 21:03 |

| b01i | Some idea about what can be happening? | 21:14 |
| guntbert | !webmin | halvors | 21:14 |
| ubottu | halvors: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 21:14 |
| halvors | yes i know it is therfore i ask about some others ;) | 21:14 |

| slackster | wrong nick :P | 22:09 |
| bluethundr | correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't service a centos / RH thing and not an ubuntu/debian thing? AFAIK it has to be /etc/init.d/postfix start | 22:10 |
| webwurst | i guess it works on both http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man8/service.8.html | 22:11 |
| webwurst | using /etc/init.d/postfix start doesn't change the behaviour.. | 22:11 |
