candyban_I have the module "xt_iprange" loaded. When I try to load the rule "-A FORWARD -p tcp -m range --dst-range 10.10.100.25-10.10.100.29 --dport smtp   -j ACCEPT" using iptables-restore, I get the error "iptables-restore v1.4.4: Couldn't load match `range':/lib/xtables/libipt_range.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". When I hardlink libxt_range.so to libipt_range.so, I get the error "iptables-restore v1.14:55

melterdoes anyone know if i set GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT to true, if the kernel is upgraded and I reboot, will i get the updated version of the selection the next time i reboot?14:58
melteri have 2 installs on sda and sdb. for now, i always want to boot from the latest kernel on sda, but the sdb kernels are first on the grub list14:59
melteras sdb gets upgraded, the sda kernels are further down the list, so i can't boot from a specific menu item number15:00
melterit'd be nice if GRUB_DEFAULT supported regular expressions and booted the first match, ".*sda"15:03
candyban_nm my problem. should have been -m iprange instead15:06
RoyKI'm trying to umount /var, which is on a separate filesystem. The data has been moved and according to lsof/fuser no files are open. still, linux report filesystem busy15:06
RoyKany idea what to try next?15:06
candyban_RoyK, perhaps there are still files in state "deleted"?15:07
RoyKlsof usually reports those as well15:07
candyban_RoyK, depends what you grepped for ;)15:07
RoyKlast I checked, lsof reports the path of the deleted file15:09
RoyKall processes are stopped, except sshd15:12
RoyKand I have no serial console on this one15:12
RoyKsince the box is located 50km from here, gambling on a restart is no good15:12
RoyKdamn - no open files on /var, but still I can't umount it15:33
RoyKany ideas how to troubleshoot this?15:33
pmatulisRoyK: maybe pastebin output to 'df -hT' and 'mount'15:33

Psi-JackAnyone here happen to know much about Radius, and what software is advisable for setting up a Radius server for authentication in vpn and wireless WPA2-Pro?15:35
RoyKPsi-Jack: freeradius is in the repositories, works for me (tm)15:36
Psi-Jackfreeradius, eh? By chance is there any ubuntu how-tos like there was a very nice and simple one for openvpn?15:37
RoyKgoogle that15:38
pmatulisRoyK: were you in /var when trying to umount by any chance?  also, try just 'lsof /var'15:39
RoyKpmatulis: no, and I couldn't find a single open file in there - umount -l /var worked, though15:41
pmatulisRoyK: ok15:41
RoyKnow I just hope the box comes up again :þ15:42
melterdoes update-grub only update the config files, or does it also install to the mbr?15:42
RoyKseems it's my lucky day :)15:42
RoyKmelter: iirc grub understand the filesystem, and doesn't need to be reinstalled into the mbr for every change, like the case of lilo15:44
melterRoyK: after running update-grub, the order of the menuitems in /boot/grub/grub.cfg doesn't match what i see when i boot15:44
RoyKhm. don't know, then, I don't know grub2 too well (yet)15:45
melteralso, if i have 2 ubuntu installs on diff hard drives, which config would it use?15:46
RoyKit will boot from the grub on the drive you set as primary boot in the BIOS, then grub will take over and boot whatever OS you configure it to15:47
RoyKanyone here using zfs-fuse? seems it's rather buggy http://pastebin.com/P8672MbC16:03
melterthanks RoyK, i understand this grub2 stuff better now16:12
melteri switched drives, and i got an error 17 from an ancient grub1 install on that hd, so i updated that, too16:12
bogeyd6RoyK, seems or do you have enough evidence to file a bug report?16:16
RoyKseems so, yes16:17
bogeyd6!worksforme | royk16:17
ubotturoyk: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/16:17
RoyKI've been working with zfs for a year or so now on s20/osol/nexenta, but the ubuntu implementation doesn't seem too good16:18
bogeyd6!google | royk16:18
ubotturoyk: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question.16:18
bogeyd6gentle reminders good sir :)16:18
RoyKbogeyd6: I asked him to google it, because google has simply more info about that than I have. I have setup a few radius servers, but not from scratch. If you have any info on the subject, please tell16:19
