| webPragmatist | my ftp client must be setting the chmod? | 00:00 |

| qman__ | drwxrwsr-x 15 ryan smbusers 4.0K 2010-07-16 21:17 Tools | 00:00 |
| qman__ | that's what it should look like | 00:00 |
| webPragmatist | yea | 00:00 |
| webPragmatist | my ftp app is setting the permission implictly | 00:00 |
| webPragmatist | on directories atleast | 00:01 |
| webPragmatist | files it does okay | 00:01 |
| qman__ | the other option, and this is how I found that bit in the mount manual | 00:01 |
| qman__ | is to mount your filesystem with the grpid option | 00:01 |
| webPragmatist | is implicitly set it with moun | 00:01 |
| qman__ | that makes it behave like setgid is set | 00:01 |
| webPragmatist | does it force it to do be that gid? | 00:02 |
| webPragmatist | instead of this weird crap where it the user can make it whatever gid | 00:02 |
| qman__ | all it does is cause new files that are created to inherit the group ID from the parent directory, instead of the group-owner of the process that creates it | 00:02 |
| webPragmatist | hrm | 00:02 |
| qman__ | it does not affect the user's ability to change the group-owner | 00:02 |
| webPragmatist | fallacies of using sshd for ftp or something? | 00:03 |
| qman__ | not at all | 00:03 |
| qman__ | ftp would have this same problem in the same scenario | 00:04 |
| webPragmatist | hrm | 00:04 |
| qman__ | it's a simple system permissions and data structure problem | 00:04 |
| qman__ | when you give multiple users write access and the ability to change permissions, you will run into this stuff | 00:05 |
| webPragmatist | well with ftp could you prevent a user from changing permissions? | 00:05 |
| qman__ | not that I'm aware of, unless it was a special option in a particular ftpd | 00:05 |
| qman__ | let me check if there's a setting for that | 00:06 |
| webPragmatist | well i don't really care to have an ftpd tbh | 00:06 |
| qman__ | I wouldn't | 00:07 |
| qman__ | doesn't look like anything in chattr for that | 00:07 |
| qman__ | so you'd have to use apparmor or selinux or something | 00:08 |

| ader10 | I can't install Ubu Server from a USB flash drive. I get a notification saying that the CD-ROM can't be detected (even with "--cdrom-detect/try-usb=true") Please help me install it from the USB flash drive. | 02:03 |
| ader10 | Also, what is up with 10.04's documentation being out-of-date? https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04%20LTS/installation-guide/ is missing and the samba file server installation guide is wrong | 02:05 |
| qman__ | ader10, I believe the link you're looking for is https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/index.html | 02:15 |
| ader10 | the link on https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/installation.html is broken, then | 02:16 |
| ader10 | Also EM64T is called Intel 64 now | 02:16 |
| qman__ | Intel changes the name of that about once every six months | 02:17 |
| ader10 | I can't find anything in that guide to help me insall from a flash drive | 02:17 |
| ader10 | (I am pretty sure that Intel 64 is the last time they'll change it) | 02:18 |
| ader10 | The actual error text is "There was a problem reading data from the CD-ROM. Please make sure it is in the drive. If retrying does not work, you should chek the integrity of your CD-ROM. Failed to copy file from CD-ROM. Retry?" | 02:22 |
| ader10 | If you search for the first 2 sentences exactly on google you'll see that nobody has had this problem solved | 02:26 |

| twb | I need the default umask for users to be 077. If I just tell pam-auth-update to edit common-session and set it explicitly, that'll probably affect root and system users, too, and might cause bad juju. | 04:43 |
| twb | Anybody know the "right" way to tell pam_umask(8) to affect only users ≥1000 ? | 04:44 |

| EvilTrek | how do I remove a single rule from IPtables? | 05:59 |
| twb | -D | 05:59 |
| EvilTrek | -D will remove the single rule? | 05:59 |
| twb | But generally you ought to use iptables-restore and write your rulesets with an editor, since iptables-restore is atomic at the table level. | 06:00 |
| EvilTrek | well i'm kind of just starting to use iptables, so I havent reached that point yet atm o.o | 06:01 |

| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| twb | Answer: yes | 08:31 |
| twb | >>/lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/*.script echo 'Window.SetBackgroundTopColor (0.00, 0.00, 0.00); Window.SetBackgroundBottomColor (0.00, 0.00, 0.00);' | 08:31 |

| |eagles0513875| | hey guys i have a question about squid and squidguard. | 08:54 |
| |eagles0513875| | i have a single nic setup on my server would you guys recommend a 2 nic setup. one nic on the dmz the other nic on the internal network? | 08:56 |
| twb | |eagles0513875|: it doesn't make a difference | 09:02 |
| twb | Two NICs is slightly more convenient to code for. | 09:03 |
| |eagles0513875| | ok it has a built in nic and i dont mind using it | 09:03 |
| |eagles0513875| | twb: ill give it a shot but atm cant get it going | 09:03 |
| |eagles0513875| | but thanks for the info :) | 09:03 |
| twb | You can always use trunking to run several logical NICs over a single physical NIC, assuming you're running Ubuntu on your router | 09:04 |

| Jeeves_ | I have used cfengine, though | 11:27 |
| binBASH | twb, I switched server console to German layout. :) | 11:28 |
| twb | Jeeves_: puppet is basically cfengine with different annoyances | 11:28 |
| binBASH | I'm the only one doing system admin onsite. | 11:28 |
| Jeeves_ | twb: More or less annoyances? :) | 11:29 |
| twb | I haven't used cfengine enough to say | 11:29 |
| binBASH | I tried puppet for config management. But I switched now to kokki. It's chef like tool but you can code in python ;) | 11:29 |
| twb | but forcing me to install ruby is annoying, and they always want me to deploy the latest alpha snapshot of puppet | 11:30 |
| binBASH | don't want to learn ruby really | 11:30 |
| twb | And puppet's wire protocol lacks ANY kind of version negotiation | 11:30 |
| twb | binBASH: yeah, well, puppet "helpfully" uses a DSL | 11:30 |
| binBASH | twb: Most people I know use chef or fabric to manage their servers | 11:31 |
| Jeeves_ | Ok, so cfengine is the way to go than :P | 11:31 |
| binBASH | I don't know someone who uses puppet actually | 11:31 |
| twb | chef is just a minor NIH of puppet | 11:32 |
| twb | (AFAICT) | 11:32 |
| twb | You still have to use ruby on the nodes, at least | 11:32 |
| binBASH | yup | 11:32 |
| binBASH | that's why I'm using kokki. ;) | 11:32 |
| binBASH | python is already installed on the nodes..... | 11:33 |
| larsemil | do i need any special hardware to connect to a fibre channel san or does it use ethernet? | 11:33 |
| twb | Well, I suppose yaml is at least well-defined | 11:35 |
| twb | (I hadn't heard of kokki before.) | 11:35 |
| binBASH | twb: Yeah, I found it when I googled for python config management tools ;) | 11:36 |

| silentwhisper | is it correct? | 12:01 |
| remix_tj | yes | 12:01 |
| twb | OK, the problem is something to do with pam_unix being first and pam_ldap being second in lucid | 12:13 |
| Jeeves_ | That's stupid | 12:17 |
| twb | Yes | 12:17 |
| twb | Yes it is. | 12:17 |
| Jeeves_ | (as are more things in Lucid) | 12:17 |
| twb | Clarification: I'm using libpam-ldap and libnss-ldap, with OpenLDAP on both ends, using the ppolicy overlay | 12:17 |
| Jeeves_ | Oh wait. Did I say that out loud? L:) | 12:17 |
| ewook | Jeeves_: no, not really :p | 12:17 |
| twb | I should also note for the record that nis.schema is JUST SO WRONG, and libpam_ldap's internals are pretty ugly (if reasonably clear). | 12:18 |
| Jeeves_ | Imho, Hardy is still the best Ubuntu around. | 12:19 |
| Jeeves_ | It's just too old | 12:19 |
| twb | Hey, waitaminute... | 12:19 |
| twb | Why isn't slapd enforcing non-crap passwords? | 12:19 |
| Jeeves_ | And, IMHO, Canonical focusses on the Cloud far too much | 12:19 |
| twb | It's doing so on the hardy desktops... | 12:19 |
| Jeeves_ | Does anyone know if openstreetmaps.org has an Google-maps-like API for pointing out where people are? | 12:20 |
| twb | I wonder if that bullshit where ubuntu moved the ldap configuration INSIDE THE LDAP DATABASE is causing this issue. | 12:20 |

| Roxyhart0 | other question...any good proxy server? | 13:44 |
| joschi | Roxyhart0: for which protocol? | 13:46 |
| Roxyhart0 | most important p2p, irc, ssh, htmp | 13:47 |

| joschi | how can I tell d-i or more precisely partman that I want to have the remaining free space of a hard drive (after the partitions have been created) in a LVM volume group? | 14:18 |
| joschi | e.g. create a partition with 10G in the volume group and have the rest unassigned to any LV, but assigned to the volume group | 14:18 |

| matt_keys | I have a fresh install of server 10.04 amd64. on install i only selected vm host and ssh. virt-manager, virt-viewer, xterm, ubuntu-vm-builder are custom additions. i changed networking to bridge eth0 and set the template to use br0 by default. when attempting to create a vm I get the following error: http://pastebin.com/27vxhNHr | 17:45 |
| matt_keys | anybody ever seen that one? | 17:45 |
| EvilTrek | pmatulis: yeah its hiding somewhere, but its not in /boot | 17:45 |
| EvilTrek | pmatulis: perhaps because its a VPS? | 17:46 |

| EvilTrek | jpds: the datacenter the VPS is at didnt have zen | 17:48 |
| EvilTrek | er xen* | 17:48 |

| talcite | hey guys, the UUID in the kernel bootline should match the UUID of the root partition correct? | 19:00 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: Yes. | 19:00 |
| talcite | Jordan_U: is there any reason why a UUID of a softraid array would change suddenly? | 19:01 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: Not that I know of, but I don't do much with RAID. | 19:01 |
| talcite | Jordan_U: hmm that's ok. Thanks. I'll just change it manually to match. It's really weird that it happened though | 19:02 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: update-grub should update your grub.cfg to match the new value. | 19:02 |
| talcite | Jordan_U: hmm, I'm stuck in an initramfs shell. I don't think I have access to /boot actually | 19:03 |
| talcite | or is it just not automatically mounted? | 19:03 |
| talcite | Was grub's menu.lst removed in 10.04? I'd like to verify that the kernel options on boot are using the correct UUID | 19:25 |

| qman__ | talcite, 10.04 uses grub2 by default, which does not have a menu.lst | 20:45 |
| Italian_Plumber | wasn't that first considered a "bug" tha'ts going to be "fixed" in 10.04.1? | 20:47 |
| qman__ | what, exactly? | 20:47 |
| qman__ | grub2's configuration structure is completely different from the old grub | 20:48 |
| Italian_Plumber | maybe I'm remembering something wrong | 20:49 |
| qman__ | the bits you're supposed to change have moved to /etc | 20:49 |
| pmatulis | talcite: cat /proc/cmdline | 20:53 |

| webPragmatist | do i have to do anything after I add a file to /etc/logrotate.d | 22:29 |
| === ajaya_ is now known as ajaya | ||
| talcite | Hmm ok I see. I've found the /etc/ bits now. | 22:57 |
| talcite | It's still weird though. cat /proc/cmdline gives a different UUID than from the UUID of my root partition | 22:58 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: If you boot holding shift you can get the grub menu and temporarily change the menu entry to boot, then "sudo update-grub" should fix things permanently. | 22:59 |
| talcite | well, I should clarify, /proc/cmdline gives a different UUID from the one that mdadm -D /dev/md0 reports | 22:59 |
| talcite | hmm | 23:00 |
| talcite | are they supposed to be different ones? | 23:00 |
| talcite | Jordan_U: yup, I ran the update-grub command, but it didn't seem to change anything. The UUIDs reported by /proc/cmdline and mdadm are still different | 23:01 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: cat /proc/cmdline prints the kernel parameters that were passed to the kernel when you booted. | 23:02 |
| talcite | ah, so I'll need to reboot | 23:02 |
| Jordan_U | talcite: To check the UUID that grub will pass next boot look in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 23:02 |
| talcite | ah. Thanks. I've never used grub2 before | 23:03 |
| Jordan_U | luis_lopez: You're welcome. | 23:03 |
| pittstains | anyone know how to update the output of the df command? i deleted some large files but i'm getting the same output | 23:09 |
| pittstains | gaaaaaaaaaaaaah | 23:12 |
| pittstains | too late | 23:12 |
| pittstains | giving me output for every directory | 23:12 |
| pittstains | can't stop it with control C | 23:13 |
| pittstains | wrong window... sorry! still would like help with the df question though | 23:13 |
| qman__ | df generates fresh output each time you run it | 23:14 |
| qman__ | if the information is wrong, it's more likely that your filesystem is reporting incorrect information, or that you didn't actually delete said files | 23:15 |
| qman__ | were they hard-linked elsewhere? | 23:15 |
| pittstains | qman: thanks | 23:16 |
| pittstains | i don't believe they were hard linked anywhere else | 23:16 |
| pittstains | they were apache log files | 23:16 |
| qman__ | yeah, then probably not | 23:16 |
| qman__ | but they should also not be that big | 23:16 |
| pittstains | it was 10GB -- my predecessor put them in a non-standard location, so logrotate never touched them | 23:17 |
| pittstains | qman__: i just used the rm command... i know that doesn't delete them in a non-recoverable way, but shouldn't it free up the space? | 23:19 |
| qman__ | generally, it does delete them in a non-recoverable way | 23:19 |
| qman__ | unless you have an undelete system configured | 23:19 |
| pittstains | no undelete system configured... i mean unrecoverable in the way the shred makes files unrecoverable | 23:20 |
| pittstains | *in the way that shred | 23:20 |
| qman__ | rm simply unlinks them | 23:20 |
| qman__ | which leaves the data free to be overwritten | 23:20 |
| qman__ | unless it's linked elsewhere | 23:21 |
| qman__ | it would show up as free space | 23:21 |
| qman__ | if it really is a filesystem inconsistency, fsck will fix it | 23:23 |
| pittstains | good suggestion... thanks | 23:27 |
| LowValueTarget | mysql wont start on my 10.04 box | 23:39 |
| LowValueTarget | any ideas | 23:39 |
| binBASH | check error log in /var/log/mysql/ | 23:40 |
| LowValueTarget | binBASH: nothin in there | 23:43 |
| binBASH | check diskspace | 23:43 |
| binBASH | it should contain something if you start mysql ;) | 23:44 |

| binBASH | again check diskspace if logs are empty | 23:45 |
| yabbo | ok im trying to install ubuntu server on a dell power edge 6450 but when i try the server CD it says it cant install the kernel modules for the architecture | 23:51 |
| yabbo | its a quad P4 700 mhz system so it should install | 23:51 |
| yabbo | or do i need to go out and download server 7.10 or something | 23:54 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Is there any way to save the response of a request i issue via TELNET to a file? I.e. I want to try to send a custom request to a server with HTTP and save the response file | 23:55 |
| jpds | yabbo: 7.10 is dead. | 23:55 |
| yabbo | i know but 10.04 wont install | 23:55 |
| jpds | Well, noone's going to help on using an unsupported release. ;-) | 23:56 |
| yabbo | do > file.txt at the end of the command and it will log it to the file | 23:56 |
| yabbo | well then can you help me get 10.04 working lol | 23:56 |
| LowValueTarget | it was apparmor if anyone cares | 23:56 |
| jpds | yabbo: dmesg | tail in a pastebin would be useful to. | 23:58 |
| pittstains | qman__: so, i ran fsck -ns /dev/foo (still mounted), and i get a list of errors... wondering if there's a way to fix this that is safe, easy, and reliable... | 23:58 |
| pittstains | if i reboot later, will it just run the check on boot and do the right thing? | 23:58 |
