MTecknologythesheff17: made a team, project, registered an upstream import, created a recipe, told the recipe to build01:03
MTecknologythesheff17: kind of a lot of stuff - you'd want to start with building your own packages in your own ppa - #ubuntu-packaging can help with that01:04
thesheff17MTecknology: ok cool...I will have to take a look thx01:04
MTecknologythesheff17: if the package works nice and perfect - I'll look into getting it into debian/ubuntu01:05
thesheff17MTecknology: excellent I think a chroot implementation through apt-get would be excellent.01:06

Roxyhart0hi there, somebody know how to stop tcpdump automatically? when i do crl -c it stop but the process still appear in the system02:58
thebwtRoxyhart0: can you get it's pid and `kill -9` it?03:02
Roxyhart0yes, but is not the idea as when i try then to merge files that i got with tcpdump give me errors as the file was cut03:29
papertigersRoxyhart0: tcpdump is staying open?03:30
Roxyhart0when i do crt C, still is running...03:31
Roxyhart0i woudl like to stop with some condition03:31
papertigersRoxyhart0: are you giving it an option to run in the background at all03:31
Roxyhart0no, i just do tcpdump -i van2 scr portrange 2000 -6553503:33
papertigersyou have an interface named van2?03:35
Roxyhart0yes03:35
Roxyhart0it is running ok03:35
papertigersRoxyhart0: interesting so when you run that and you hit ctrl c it continues to run03:38
=== _Techie_ is now known as _Techie_|_Away_
Roxyhart0yes03:39
papertigersRoxyhart0: how are you checking for it? ps aux | grep tcpdump03:39
Roxyhart0i do ps -fea |grep tcpdump and still ahow me the pdid03:39
papertigersahh03:40
papertigersdo a ps aux | grep tcpdump03:40
Roxyhart0i did and still shows me the pdid from tcpdump03:41
papertigersis it there?03:41
Roxyhart0yes03:41
papertigerspastebin the output to me03:41
papertigersps aux | grep tcpdump | grep -v grep03:43
papertigersyoure not seeing the grep output and thinking its tcpdump are you03:43
Roxyhart0i know was i did wrong i did cr z and not cr c, but still i would like to stop it automatically as i am running the comand with cron each 5 minutes for 1 minute03:44
Roxyhart0and i just can stp with killall -9 tcpdump03:44
papertigersyeah ctrl z will let you type bg to background it03:45
papertigersor fg to forground it03:46
papertigerstcpdump -G will let you rotate files03:47
Roxyhart0i tried to use that, i will check a little bit more03:49
Roxyhart0thanks03:49
papertigersRoxyhart0: if not the best bet it to run it from a script that will run it record the pid and kill it after a min03:49
papertigerseasiest way03:49
Roxyhart0yes, i did it03:50
papertigersokay sweet03:51

tagetI am having a problem configuring my interfaces, i have a block of static ip's and 2 netowrk cards in my server. one has a internal ip in the 192.168.2. subnet and the other is in my public pool of addresses. the problem is i cannot access my interface with the public ip outside of my local network. any ideas ?04:54
=== _Techie_|_Away_ is now known as _Techie_
thesheff17taget: sounds like a route problem05:04
tagetthats kind of what i thought also, but i am unsure of how to fix it05:04
thesheff17taget: can you server ping the outside?05:04
=== erichammond1 is now known as erichammond
thesheff17taget: you can adjust your route by doing "route del default gw x.x.x.x" and "route add default gw x.x.x.x"05:05
thesheff17taget: first get your box to reach the internet.05:06
thesheff17taget: and the private network shouldn't have any routes.05:06
tarvidfound TraceEnable Off in security.dpkg-dist but I think TRACE is still enabled05:06
tagetsorry, i was disconnected05:07
tageti can ping the outside, but i hace not tried disabling the internal network interface05:07
thesheff17taget: you shouldn't have to disable the private network interface05:08
tagethow can i be sure i am accessing outside of my network with the correct interface ?05:08
thesheff17taget: as root type route and is that IP in the same subnet as the public network?05:09
tagetthesheff17: the first destination is in the correct subnet, but the gateway is an *05:10
tagetafter the first entry i have a 192.168.2.0 dest to * entry and a default to 192.168.2.10 entry05:11
thesheff17taget: can you paste all the output to pastebin05:12
tagetsure05:12
tagethttp://pastebin.com/WFaU1V6v05:14
MTecknologythesheff17: oh ya.. it built - https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~jailkit/+archive/ppa05:14
thesheff17MTecknology: nice05:14
thesheff17taget: so this is the private network? 192.168.2.10005:14
tagetcorrect05:15
thesheff17taget: your route should be something on the public side.05:15
thesheff17taget: which is the last entry05:15
tagetthats kind of what i was thinking but i am unsure of how to change it05:16
thesheff17taget: /etc/network/interfaces controls your interfaces05:16
tagetyup05:17
tagetbut just adding the interface will not adjust the routing, correct ?05:17
thesheff17taget: correct05:17
thesheff17taget: I will pastebin my dual network /etc/network/interface05:17
tageti have eth0 configured for static with all of the correct info05:18
tagetty05:18
thesheff17http://pastebin.com/Vp2BekR905:20
thesheff17taget: so all you should need for the private network is ip and subnet05:20
thesheff17taget: and when you type route the only entry in gateway should be the IP of your public gateway.05:24
tagetthanks for the help, i will make some corrections and try it. i am looking at my interfaces file right now and for some reason while using nano it removed all the text that wasnt currently in view of the terminal05:24
tagetand one of the lines it cut out was the gateway05:25
thesheff17taget: yea be careful if you only have remote access.  also vim is a great text editor05:26
tagetthat is what i have heard, i just have never taken the time to learn how to use it. also the server is only 15 minutes away from my home :)05:27
tagetso i ma fortunate in this case05:27
thesheff17taget: cool yea most of the machines I manage are hours away if not states away :)05:31
tagetthesheff17: i hear you on that, i am fortunate in this case, id hate to have to jump in the car to go and reset a server in this instance.05:34
tagetOn another topic, i am looking for a solution for a web based file access with a nice login and ui for downloading and uploading files to  a server. (family file server)05:36
tagetany ideas ?05:36
thesheff17taget: what I do is create a cronjob that runs every hour and restores the original network config regardless of what I do.....so if and when I do break it I know within the hour it will be fixed.  Just remember though when the hour comes around your config file will change regardless of what you do.05:37
thesheff17taget: I would use apache with php05:37
tagetthesheff17: good idea.05:38
thesheff17taget: apache can easily do https/login/download... php is good for uploads and moving the files around where you want them.....though there is a couple of places to adjust php in order to upload big files but it is well documented.05:40

tagetthesheff17: i will look into that in the morning. thank you for the help05:41
thesheff17taget: no problem I should be around if you need more help05:41
Roxyhart0somebody know any good solution to block P2P traffic?05:42
thesheff17Roxyhart0: I have create a linux based router and then you can forward all the traffic through that box and filter what you want and don't want.05:42
MTecknologythesheff17: that's just a normal build. It could keep building there forever and never make it into ubuntu. There's a couple different processes that you need to go through to get it included05:43
Roxyhart0thesheff17, do you post that solution in somewhere?05:45
Roxyhart0did05:45
thesheff17Roxyhart0: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/home-router-howto.xml this one is based on iptables that I have used and you have to adjust for ubuntu but it is pretty straight forward05:45
Roxyhart0thanks a lot05:46
thesheff17Roxyhart0: np05:46
thesheff17Roxyhart0: you don't have to anything with the kernel...that is all built into ubuntu05:47
Roxyhart0ok, thanks ..i will have a look05:47
thesheff17Roxyhart0: I actually just let all the traffic through on the router and then install a monitoring tool on the private interface to see what clowns where using P2P stuff...because sometimes I would use bittorent stuff to download ISO and other important data.05:50
thesheff17MTecknology: well I hope it makes it into universe...but I can tell you I have no clue how all this works :)05:52
MTecknologythesheff17: me either :P05:52
MTecknologythesheff17: I think only about 1 or 2 actually do :P (or a few more-but it's not a lot that really understand it all)05:52
MTecknologythesheff17: 1) if it gets into debian, it'll be in ubuntu 2) if not, then you need to get it into ubuntu directy 3) sometimes debian realizes it's good and then brings it in05:53
thesheff17MTecknology: ah ok05:54
MTecknologythesheff17: all three ways are a different process and have pros/cons05:54
MTecknologythesheff17: I'm actually considering just helping the developer get it into debian - they're so close to being able to do it easily05:55
MTecknologythesheff17: for now.. You can install from that PPA I linked you to05:56
thesheff17MTecknology: excellent yea I feel like I haven't contributed much to ubuntu yet...hopefully that will change :)05:56
MTecknologythesheff17: I feel the same :P05:57
MTecknologythesheff17: You offer support in here which already helps a lot. You could also check out https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu (and also https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad - a lot get incorrectly put here)05:59
thesheff17MTecknology: I haven't been in a irc chat room since the early 90's of the aol days for who knows what.  Its great to be back.  I also feel like the forums for ubuntu aren't great...most of the questions go un answered which is disappointing.  When I was big into gentoo (before I found ubuntu) I would answer as much as I could on the forums.06:00
thesheff17MTecknology: it could though just be the sheer volume of ubuntu users vs gentoo users.06:01
MTecknologythesheff17: it is indeed. Ubuntu is geared toward easing the enterance barrier where Gentoo is absolutely not out to do that.06:02
thesheff17MTecknology: haha I know...gentoo was the first linux distro I found and I thought all linux distos where like that :) how wrong I was.06:03
MTecknologythesheff17: Ubuntu and Fedora are usually the first distros a person tries. That comes with "Where did my Start button go?" and "Where is my Outlooks?" which are so obviou to us, but not someone who's never tried something different. (I hate the pluraization of outlook) I don't think it's possible to eliminate most of the support without looking and acting exactly like windows. Problem is that the efforts to do that wound 06:05
MTecknologythesheff17: #ubuntu, #ubuntu-server, answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu, and ubuntuforums.com and the bestest best places to help new users.06:06
MTecknologythesheff17: You helped me out a massive amount today. Where did that go? The tool you showed me to may now wind up in the repositories. :D06:07
MTecknologytoday and yesterday*06:07
thesheff17MTecknology: yea I have no problem helping as much as I can...because I wouldn't know anything without the help of everyone else....I never touched a linux machine in college and I graduated with a comp sci degree which is sad06:08

Roxyhart0hi thesheff17, sorry my question i did capture package with tcpdump and then analyze with wireshark and i got some pakages that are recognized by wireshark as bittorrent, but the port that shows me for that oacjages are > 50000 usually, and the rule that your shows me iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 6881:6889 -i ${WAN} -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.206:08
Roxyhart0the port say 6881:6889, maybe i am confuse?06:09
MTecknologythesheff17: that's about how my university is. <20 people actually understand linux at any depth in the entire university including both faculty and students06:09
thesheff17Roxyhart0: all ports over 1024 are unprivileged ports and P2P can run on all of them...so only enable what you want.06:10
thesheff17Roxyhart0: I think :)06:10
Roxyhart0yes, i think so...just was confuse with the rule that said for bittorent, why say port 6881:688906:11
thesheff17Roxyhart0: prob just what is standard but feel free to adjust.06:11
Roxyhart0ok, thanks a lot!06:16
Roxyhart0do you know ipp2p?06:17
Roxyhart0im wondering how as good it is?06:17

thesheff17Roxyhart0: sounds like that is still under massive development and has moved to http://www.ipp2p.org/06:23
Roxyhart0so, still wait to use it06:24
thesheff17Roxyhart0: well I would just do extensive testing before moving into production where ever you are using it.  Though that is pretty much anything I use on linux :)06:26
Roxyhart0thanks :)06:26
Davieyttx: Don't suppose you are around yet? :)06:37
rdw200169Roxyhart0: with my experience with ipp2p is that you just can't keep up with the tricks p2p software will throw at you07:02
rdw200169Roxyhart0: instead, go about it another way: use HTB+SFQ to throttle subscribers (tc) and keep track of heavy abusers by logging b/w per IP in some way.  if someone is downloading (anything really) too much, blast them @ tc07:03
rdw200169Roxyhart0: p2p software, or any software for that matter, can't download through a pipe bigger than the one you give it, so its most reliable to manage your problem that way07:04

rdw200169Roxyhart0: i ran into the same problem(s) with p2p traffic in the past, and ended up using traffic shaping to do all my dirty work08:07
rdw200169Roxyhart0: you may be interested in reading http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/project/htbinit/HTB.init/0.8.5/htb.init-v0.8.5 , the man pages for tc, tc-tbf, tc-htb, tc-sfq, and of course the manual on http://lartc.org08:16
rdw200169Roxyhart0: note, also, that iptables and tc can work together using fw marks (which means tc filtering can be endless ...)08:18

maswanI'm just busy runnign through a full install first. The boot screen was weird, I had to hit F1 for help before I could hit enter to boot the installer, and there were no "Advanced" choices either12:08
Davieyhmm.. interesting12:09
maswanYeah, I was wondering if I had messed up my download of the ubuntu-installer directory, but I could hit F1 for the normal help and then enter to install from that screen..12:11
maswan\sh: so, good news, assuming you're planning on running the maverick instead of the lts. ;)12:13
maswanoh, wait, my mistake12:14
maswanI had messed up, the wrong pxelinux.cfg file.12:14

ttxDaviey: about the registration failure14:03
ttxyou reported one test ok and one test failing14:03
Davieyttx: Reproducing here14:03
ttxwas it under the same conditions ?14:03
Davieyidentical.14:03
ttxor one was netbootpreseeded and one was ISo ?14:03
ttxit's quite steadily failing now14:04
ttxso I wonder if there is not something else taht regressed14:04
ttxhmm14:05
ttxthe web UI says it's already registered14:06
ttxDaviey: then I deregister them in the web UI and restart...14:07
ttxand now it says it's already registered in the euca_conf calls14:07
* ttx sighs14:07
Davieyttx, oh joy14:08
* ttx logs in again on the web UI for fun14:08
ttxand sure, it's registered again14:08
ttxDaviey: so actually it looks like though there are errors in registration.log, the registration succeeds14:10
ttx... as long as you log in on the web UI ?14:11
* ttx tries to make some sense out of that14:11
Davieyheh14:12

hggdhttx, Daviey: so auto-registration is failing? It failed on my all-in-one install14:20
Davieyhggdh, Will confirm in a few mins my results14:21
ttxhggdh: well "failing" might not be the right word14:21
ttxhggdh: euca_conf seems completely borked and reports crap14:21
ttxand since we trust it to assess success/failure...14:21
Davieyttx, Have you succeed in registering an image before there is an NC avaliable?14:22
ttxI did nothing and it fell into place14:22
ttxDaviey: hav,'t tried14:22
hggdhoh joy, joy, joy14:22
ttxunfortunately I'm completely useless due to major headache today14:23
Davieyhttp://pb.daviey.com/7B0J/raw/14:23
DavieyI had that yesterday aswell.. but it fixed itself14:23
hggdhttx: in my case it actually failed to register on install (registration.log shows the failure). manually --register-* succeeded14:23
hggdhweirdest thing is the SCS *did* get registered, even without a cluster14:23
hggdhof course, it was not reported registered until I registered the cluster14:24
DavieyI'm thinking it's pot luck, at the time you fire the command :(14:24
ttxhggdh: in my case registration.log shows a failure, euca_conf says "can't register, login on web UI, web UI says "it's registered"14:24
hggdhoh different14:24
hggdhDaviey: pot luck, with replacements, and many options14:25
ttxI'm not that sure. If you consider euca_conf reports incorrectly success/failure, it makes (some) sense14:25
hggdhI agree we cannot trust euca_conf right now, but the registration log *does* show the failure14:25
hggdhoh14:25
hggdhif the reg.log maintained by euca_conf?14:25
ttxhggdh: I'm starting to suspect it actually registers, despite registration.log showing failure14:25
hggdhttx: ack14:26
ttxno, it's maintained by the uec-component-listener scripts14:26
ttxit just reports the return code of euca_conf14:26
hggdhyeah, so it is unreliable as well14:26
Davieyhggdh, I'm sure we'll get a fix :)14:29
ttxhggdh: apparently "registered" means different things to different pieces of the eucalyptus puzzle14:30
hggdhDaviey: yes. Pigs *do* fly, only catch is when they land14:30
ttxthe UI says "yes", euca_conf says "screw you"14:30
hggdhheh14:30
Davieyttx, On your NC install... did you get grub asking you to check the "Linux command line" it apparently extracted from /etc/default/grub?14:30
Davieyentry = blank14:31
ttxhaven't installed NC yet, reinstalling all-in-one14:31
hggdhDaviey: on install?14:31
Davieyhggdh, yes, from the iso span today14:32
Daviey(not preseeded)14:32
ttxstarting one right now14:32
hggdhwill look at the serial cons of all NCs14:32
Davieyhggdh, during debian-installer14:32
DavieyThis registering an image is interesting...14:33
ttxand then... registration works14:34
ttx...14:34
ttxit's one of those days I should really consider working from hoime shouldn't prevent me from calling sick14:34
smoserttx, ping.14:35
hggdhweird. I am opening a console on all, all all show me at a d-i screen "Configuring grub-pc"14:35
smoserso you want some little blurb about kernel upgrades ?14:35
Davieyttx, Agreed - me and hggdh can keep cracking on. "Go Home" :)14:35
ttxhggdh, Daviey: so the workaround seems to be: keep trying14:35
Davieyexactly!14:35
ttxsmoser: can be done tomorrow14:35
ttx... I think14:36
ttx... I hope14:36
Davieydammit.. i intended to make the registration.log more useful in the last upload14:36
smoserttx, well, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-on-ec2/ubuntu-on-ec2/ami-pages/annotate/head%3A/maverick-i386.body.html14:36
ttxhggdh: so the onoly thing I did differently this time was to login immediately and keep doing netstat -tl to check services going up14:36
smoserhas something (See 'Changelog')14:36
smoserDaviey, so what is up with grub causing problems ?14:37
ttxmaybe it slowed down the stuff sufficiently to win whatever race14:37
smoseri'm thinking this is likely related to my addition of dependencies in eucalyptus-nc14:37
hggdhttx: I had a similar thingy yesterday -- of the 6 installs I did, 4 worked OK, two failed to register14:37
ttxhggdh: did they actually not work ? Or you supposed they were broken by looking at euca_conf output and ergistration.log ?14:38
hggdhI trashed all my NCs installs, and I am reinstalling & monitoring the serial console. All of them got stuck in d-i on grub14:38
Davieysmoser, not entirely sure.. doing a fresh install to check14:38
Davieysmoser, certainly *not* the changes you introduced.. So don't worry14:38
smoserok.14:39
* ttx wonders if everything does not come from the new "I need walrus up first" type of constraints14:39
Davieyhggdh, Oh good.. it's not only me14:39
* ttx finishes his test and preps a long pause14:39
DavieyI think grub is poorly. :(14:40
hggdhttx: they all worked after *manually* registering the cc, walrus, and sc14:40
ttxhggdh: but not before ?14:40
Davieysmoser, Actually.. i take that back.. it could be the depends change.. i was thinking in code changes.14:41
hggdhttx: but not before (these two I pointed as failing)14:41
hggdhthe other fours worked perfectly with auto-reg14:41
AndyGraybealsamba  isn't in my /etc/init.d .. i selected to install samba from the ubuntu server install.. i'm wondering what i'm doing wrong.14:43
Davieyttx, Seems my walrus and cluster failed to auto register14:43
ttxDaviey: got that grub-pc question as well14:44
AndyGraybealah is it called smbd ?14:44
Davieyttx, oh good14:44
hggdhDaviey: see if they got registered in secret14:44
Davieyttx, In a few steps.. see if grub fails to install14:44
ttxDavidLevin: does entry=blank work ?14:44
ttxDaviey: ^14:44
Davieyttx, I just pressed return14:45
ttxDaviey: ok14:45
Daviey(which didn't work)14:45
ttxDaviey: please check netstat -tl14:45
smoseri dont understand though.14:45
ttxto see if you have 8773 8774 8443 and 900114:45
smoserwouldn't grub-pc have been installed before as the boot loader ?14:45
Davieydammit, i've just euca_conf --registered14:45
smoseri wouldn't have thought that would have been a new dependency there.14:45
Davieysmoser, i agree14:45
Davieysmoser, I don't know if it's a recent change with our stuff.. or foundations14:46
ttxsmoser: any clue what I should answer to that boot line question ?14:46
smoseri didnt see it.14:46
ttxit wasn't there yesterday14:46
smoseroh.14:46
smoserwait. whats the question ?14:46
hggdhDaviey: did you get a similar Q when installing the CLC/Walrus/etc? I did not14:46
ttxLinux command line:14:47
Daviey<Daviey> ttx, On your NC install... did you get grub asking you to check the "Linux command line" it apparently extracted from /etc/default/grub?14:47
Davieysmoser, ^^14:47
smoseri think you can probably leave it blank.14:47
Davieyi left it balnk14:47
ttxDaviey: I somehow regret that we introduced that version with new depends now14:47
ttxDaviey: and it failed, right14:47
Davieyttx, That might not be the issue.. ofc14:47
smosermy functional laptop has: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""14:47
Davieyttx, yes.. grub didn't handle the question well asking me which device to put it on14:47
hggdhttx: on the single install I let proceed, CMDLINE="" also14:48
hggdhand it booted oK14:48
hggdhwhatever is it being asked for now14:48
ttxDaviey: ok, so that's another issue, trying with empty14:48
smoserhm.. that is strange.14:48
ttxDaviey: could you file a bug about that, we need to find a way to not have that question asked14:48
smoseri get annoyed by that in cloud images also14:48
hggdhttx: why did I *not* get this Q on the CLC install?14:49
Davieyttx, yup14:49
Davieyhggdh, I didn't either14:49
ttxhggdh: it's a NC dep14:49
hggdhttx: what dep?14:49
smoserso, seriously, grub-pc is not installed on your CLC ?14:49
* hggdh doubts14:50
smoserthat question is coming from grub-pc14:50
DavieyHmm grub != grub-pc14:50
hggdhsmoser: it *is* installed, 1.98+20100722-1ubuntu114:50
ttxsmoser: grub-pc is installed later in the process, by making the NC depend on it you force earlier install14:50
smoserah. thats what i was thinking.14:51
smoser:-(14:51
smoseri'm sorry for the pain.14:52
Davieysmoser, don't be14:52
smoseri'm going to run, thoguh, if i am needed, please call me.14:52
hggdhsmoser: makes life interesting ;-)14:52
smoserand if the solution is "drop out smoser's changes", i wont cry too much.14:52
Davieysmoser, Before you go..14:52
smoserso this is on preseeded install that we're hitting it ?14:52
Davieysmoser, What would happen if grub was removed from a depends?14:52
Davieyjust assume it's already installed?14:53
Davieysmoser, and ISO14:53
smoserwell, grub-mkrescue will fail.14:53
hggdhnow, I did not get Q-ed on the linuxc cmdline, but on whether I wanted or not to install grub14:53
csdcois there any addtl firewall on top of apache in an ubuntu server?14:53
smoseri dont know.14:53
smoseri mean if everything is truely there, then it should have no problem.s14:53
Davieysmoser, ok, cheers.14:53
ttxDaviey: I can't make it install14:53
Davieyttx, same here :(14:53
smosersilly me thought that putting it in depends was right, since it depended on it :)14:53
ttxI'm stuck at the grub-pc "upgrade"14:53
Davieyi just started my NC install again to see14:54
smoseryou can probably put anything in that string14:54
Davieyttx, Keeps telling you that you have chosen not to install grub?14:54
smoserits just going to get onto the linux command line14:54
smoserwhich, who cares.14:54
Davieysmoser, That is isn't the killer issue14:54
ttxDaviey: yes14:54
smosergrub-pc/install_devices is your issue?14:54
ttxDaviey: that's actually a problem. The NC is completely uninstallable14:55
Davieysmoser, Near the end.. grub asks you waht device you want it on14:55
smoserwell, you can tell it.14:55
ttxor maybe not14:55
Davieyyou select a device14:55
Davieyand press continue14:55
smoseroh.14:55
smoser:-(14:55
Davieygrub then returns "Are you sure you don't want to install grub?"14:55
smoserwell, i'm sorry for this. i have to run. again, if "back out those changes" is the solutuion, then thats fine.14:55
DavieyI thought i was being a plum, so started the install again to reproduce..14:56
Davieyseems ttx has just hit the same behaviour14:56
ttxDaviey: apparently if you let it continue it works14:56
smoseri admit to not ever tested an full install with those packages.14:56
hggdhttx, Daviey: the NC *is* installable, I just installed two of them14:56
Davieysmoser, Well it's not terribly easy to test packages at install time..14:56
ttxhggdh: I was fearing it was not installable from ISO14:56
ttxhggdh: apparently it's just a misleading message14:57
Davieyi made a seperate local repo for doing this.. and it's not ideal14:57
ttxDaviey: could you file a bug ?14:57
Davieyttx, yes14:57
hggdhyes. I tried to say I did *not* want grub, and it kept on hapilly14:57
ttxDaviey: so that the message is in english :)14:57
ttxrigth, we need to document that14:57
Davieyhggdh, crikey14:57
Davieywell it's not as bad as we were thinking then14:57
ttxDaviey: in fact the last install step catches back and installs it14:57
Davieyi just killed the install and started again14:57

thesheff17MTecknology: I wonder though how much of that is symlinked around :(16:19
MTecknologythesheff17: easy enoguh...16:21
papertigersWhy not take the vim tar ball and compile it in the chroot :) haha16:21

MTecknologythesheff17: find /usr/share/vim/ -exec jk_cp -f /jail {} +; :D16:21
thesheff17papertigers: that is what I was thinking...maybe even add sudo and apt-get into chroot and could you apt-get vim :)16:21
MTecknologythesheff17: if you had the tools in there to do that :P16:22
tesseracterpapertigers, 1. -P wasn't considered a valid option, 2. v, vv ,vvv aren't giving any text at all, 3. it returns mount_nfs:cannot access /home/steven: Permission denied when it did return after the hang.16:22

tesseracterpapertigers, although without -v, -P seemed to work, thats when i got permission denied.16:22

papertigerstesseracter: hmm you are on server, do you ahve a gui or just cli16:24
tesseracterpapertigers, just GUI on server.16:24
papertigerstesseracter: okay go to finder16:24
tesseracterpapertigers, heh, i meant to say just cli16:25
papertigersand then go to file connect to server and do nfs://myip:/path/to/share16:25
tesseracter /facepalm16:25
papertigerstesseracter: ahh okay, I was gonna say I know the gui way works on my mac16:25
tesseracterthats frustrating...16:26
MTecknologythere we go.....16:28
tesseracterpapertigers, now youve got me confused. the server is on ubuntu, the client is a mac. the finder connect to server thing hasn't worked....although it worked a while ago with a different guys laptop. it just hasnt been consistent between macs.16:28

MTecknologyAny ideas how to stop these messages?  http://dpaste.com/224964/16:37
MTecknologyheh... simple enough16:38
MTecknologypmatulis: still doesn't work exactly right - vim acts more like vi16:40
MTecknologypmatulis: actually.. it acts more like some of the keys are messed up.. I press I, Delete and the position turns into a ~ and then the letter I was on comes back and the case of the previous letter changes16:41

mathiazSpamapS: netboot seems to be the main part missing test coverage17:47
Davieyhggdh: sadly17:47
mathiazSpamapS: I'd suggest to take the amd64 netboot tests17:47
mathiazSpamapS: and check whether you can run them17:48
Davieymathiaz: I'm pretty sure ttx said netbooting isn't a priority for A3 tests17:48
hggdhDaviey: have you ever heard of a programme called 'bttrack'? I see an error in the cloud-debug.log stating it cannot find it17:48

hggdhnicetry: what is the exact error you get? pastebin it if necessary17:49
Davieyhggdh: interesting.. that is a torrent client17:50
SpamapSmathiaz: I don't have any way to test net boot17:50
SpamapSBTW was there some email I missed saying the iso's were out?17:50
Davieyhggdh: I suspect that is a new feature he hadn't yet heard of17:50
hggdhDaviey: I know of 'bttrack.bittorrent', but not of just 'bttrack'17:51
hggdhat least we are not packaging anything with this name right now for Maverick17:51
Davieyhggdh: hmm.. it's provided with both bittornado and bitttorent packages17:51
nicetryhggdh:  http://pastebin.com/VZdkYmgb17:52
Davieyhggdh: Thankfully, they are both main - so it's not a biggy if we need to add them..17:52
Davieyhggdh: I sort of expect it's a feature of distributing the images via torrent to the nc's.. but this is nothing more than a hunch17:53
mathiazSpamapS: I'm subscribed to test cases in the iso tracker17:53

mathiazSpamapS: I hear you ;)18:01
zulSpamapS: heh....well different career path requires different hardware :)18:01
SpamapSI do have an old G5 mac but I doubt people care about powerpc testing. :)18:01

Davieymathiaz:  i can't, over the noise of these servers18:01
mathiazSpamapS: I have a virtual network within libvirt where i have an pxe server running18:02

SpamapSzul: true, I have the whole cloud at my fingertips though.. who runs real servers anymore anyway? ;)18:02
hggdhnicetry: what version of Ubuntu?18:02
zulSpamapS: umm...when you are needed to test isos perhaps? ;)18:02

SpamapSand I believe while it doesn't do session persistence, it does utilize keepalives on the backend connections18:30
SpamapShaproxy is also really nice18:30

n00b3rzthanks BTW22:30
n00b3rzI've been googling around and haven't run across anything that seemed to describe my situation, my google-fu must be weak :-|22:30
guntbertn00b3rz: 1) whats the idea of 2 nics in the same network? 2) you should always have only one default route22:33
SpamapSguntbert: I don't believe that #2 is true. its perfectly fine to have multiple routes to any destination22:34
SpamapSas long as the gateway knows how to get to the destination22:35
n00b3rzguntbert: 1) No point right now, only one network to work with and I believe one is unplugged. 2) I can see about disabling the second default route if necessary22:35
n00b3rzthat could be it though, if one cable isn't connected and that default is used first...I did try swapping cables and it still had no connectivity22:35
guntbertn00b3rz: could be :-)22:35
SpamapSif one is down, the routing layer won't use it.22:35
SpamapSn00b3rz: why is one disconnected?22:36
n00b3rzyea, that fixed it, thank you guntbert and SpamapS22:36
guntbertSpamapS: in my experience multiple default routes lead to trouble22:36
guntbert!yay | n00b3rz22:37
ubottun00b3rz: Glad you made it! :-)22:37
SpamapSguntbert: yeah, it doesn't do what most people think it does, but it should work fine.22:37
n00b3rzSpamapS: I only have one place to connect the server to22:37
SpamapSn00b3rz: you can put two IP's on one interface, if you need both IP's22:37
n00b3rzonly one network here at work, only need one IP too22:37
guntbertSpamapS: not with default route - it doesn't22:38
SpamapSwell then stop doing weird stuff with two IP's ;)22:38
n00b3rzhehe, good to know!22:38
guntbertI'm on my way to bed - glad it works now :-)22:38
n00b3rzif I want to disable the second interface would the best place be under /etc/network/interfaces?22:39
n00b3rzremoving the entry for that connection?22:39
SpamapSn00b3rz: yes22:39
