[01:27] <Wyleyrabbit> Hi everyone
[01:28] <Wyleyrabbit> How would I go about checking the specific version of a driver on my Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS installation?
[01:40] <Wyleyrabbit> I have a system with a hardware raid controller. Can anyone tell me how to query the status of the raid?
[01:49] <Patrickdk> Wyleyrabbit, ya, use the program that is designed to do it with whatever raid controller you have
[01:51] <Wyleyrabbit> Patrickdk, I have an Intel controller (essentially an LSI chipset & controller), and the card uses the megaraid_sas kernel driver. Sadly, Intel says they only support Redhat or Suse.
[01:52] <Patrickdk> use the megaraid util then
[01:52] <Wyleyrabbit> Patrickdk, from where though? Where do I get the megaraid utilities for Ubuntu from?
[01:56] <Patrickdk> http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/products_home/internal_raid/megaraid_sas/megaraid_sas_8888elp/
[01:56] <Patrickdk> just select your card
[01:56] <Patrickdk> and download it
[01:56] <Patrickdk> that is what I did for my lsi ones
[02:00] <rasengan> Anyone experienced with PPTP (Poptop)?
[02:01] <Patrickdk> rasengan, ya used it for years, dropped it like 2 years ago
[02:02] <rasengan> Patrickdk: Cool - I have a question; My PPTP Server is configured correctly to the best of my knowledge, running pppd 2.4.5.  If I connect to it on 1 ip (the IP I want to use) it fails with a GRE: pppd checksum error, but if I connect on a different IP it works perfectly fine.  I did iptables -F which I believe? clears any firewall/etc.  So I was wondering if you knew anything about this issue
[02:02] <rasengan> o_o;
[02:06] <rasengan> Man, now it's weird, Patrickdk.  Now it's working on the IP it failed so miserably on.  :(
[02:06] <Wyleyrabbit> Patrickdk, thanks. I managed to find something that says it's for Ubuntu 9. Presumably that will work on Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS 64-bit?
[02:07] <Patrickdk> Wyleyrabbit, most likely, if it's x64 version
[02:07] <Wyleyrabbit> is there an easy way of telling the version of the existing megaraid_sas driver that came with Ubuntu?
[02:08] <Patrickdk> dmesg
[02:17] <rasengan> Thanks Patrickdk :)  it all works now :D
[02:18] <Wyleyrabbit> Patrickdk, nothing in dmesg about the version of the default megaraid_sas driver. :-(
[02:20] <Wyleyrabbit> I did get an entry that looks like so: scsi4 : LSI SAS based MegaRAID driver
[02:20] <Wyleyrabbit> and this: [    2.939591] megasas: 00.00.04.01 Thu July 24 11:41:51 PST 2008
[02:23] <Wyleyrabbit> aha!
[02:24] <Wyleyrabbit> ok, so the 00.00.04.01 must be the version number. The Ubuntu download came with 00.00.04.30, so I guess that would be the better one to use. How easy is it to tell Ubuntu to use the new one instead of the old one?
[02:28] <Patrickdk> a crapload of fun :)
[02:28] <Patrickdk> if you don't know how
[02:28] <Wyleyrabbit> heh heh
[02:29] <Wyleyrabbit> I'm sad to admit it. I've been dealing with linux servers for years, but they've all been either Redhat or Centos.
[02:29] <Wyleyrabbit> I'm already very impressed with Ubuntu, but it's a bit like driving a new car. Same things are there, but you just might turn on the wipers by accident
[02:29] <Patrickdk> well, it all depends on how they made the driver, personally I wouldn't bother
[02:56] <pmatulis> Wyleyrabbit: how can you have 2 drivers to choose from?
[06:15] <yoeschua> Hosanna
[06:16] <yoeschua> ikonia bruder good morning to you
[07:55] <alison> hello, when i try to ssh into my server i get the message "Received disconnect from 172.16.0.250: 2: fork failed: Not enough space". Is this referring to hard-disk space or memory?
[08:23] <kees> alison: memory space
[08:24] <kees> alison: (or possible number of processes)
[09:23] <DaWyzre> http://666games.net/Violent/Flash/Play/309/Penguin_Killer.html
[09:28] <MACscr> lol, i made a second copy of /etc/init.d/mysql so i can run a second mysql, server, but i have no idea how to get it to use the secondary cnf file. The word mysql doesnt even appear in that file. Am i missing something obvious?
[09:53] <strax> I have a bug to report.  My girlfriend has been working on a patch for something called SASL which she says is related to something called "Ubuntu Server". So I came here. Maybe you can help her out so I can get my girlfriend back.
[09:54] <joschi> MACscr: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/mysqld-multi.html is probably more useful.
[09:54] <strax> I try to talk to her but she ignores me
[09:54] <joschi> MACscr: also see /etc/init/mysql
[09:54] <MACscr> yeah, ive done a bit of googling and its definitely not as easy as i had thought
[09:54] <MACscr> not that its hard, just not a simple
[09:56] <joschi> strax: do you want to reenact https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626593 ?
[09:56] <strax> lol
[09:57] <strax> What do you think of that, btw?
[09:58] <kuttan_> hi all
[09:58] <strax> How familiar is that person with Linux / Debian / Gnome / Foss to fill out a gnome bug report?
[09:59] <kuttan_> does linux-image-virtual have dom0 support in it ?
[10:00] <strax> BTW, how is that bug verified?
[10:00] <kuttan_> does it support privileged guest / dom0
[10:01] <strax> Or even critical with respect to GNOME DE
[10:01] <strax> Oh, verified: invalid
[10:02] <strax> Still, good eyes, you caught that, joschi
[10:03] <joschi> strax: not a big surprise, since it's quite a meme by now ;)
[10:03] <strax> In some circles, yes.  I'm surprised there aren't more comments :)
[10:04] <strax> I imagine a LOT of people are biting their tongues
[10:05] <strax> We have the official statement of a maintainer that this is "spam"
[10:09] <joschi> strax: which is quite a correct observation. these kind of bug reports come and go in certain intervals
[10:09] <joschi> strax: yes, they are funny to read, but still, they are invalid ;)
[10:10] <strax> You mean other, psychological, bugs preceded this?
[10:11] <strax> DO tell :)
[10:14] <joschi> strax: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=112631 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=439858
[10:15] <joschi> strax: and now google yourself. this is way too off-topic here ;)

[10:37] <DaWyzre> gigasoft brotha hola
[10:39] <strax> google myself?
[10:41] <strax> But I get it.  Invalid bugs go back at least 5 years :)
[10:43] <MACscr> anyone see anything wrong in my my.cnf? Its very simple and setup for the mysql instance manager, but when i try to start mysql with /etc/init.d/mysql start, it just hangs there. Here it is: http://pastebin.com/2W6ahXkr
[10:45] <strax> BTW, I like that Linus responded on that one bug.  Maybe he saw Ilana's bug? :)
[10:53] <gigasoft> DaWyzre, sta ima?
[11:04] <DaWyzre> Hvala lijepa, gigasoft brotha
[11:05] <gigasoft> DaWyzre, heheheh no problem :)
[11:14] <cornelpdt> Any UEC experts around?
[11:37] <cornelpdt> Can anyone help me with a UEC issue
[11:39] <cornelpdt> Is there anybody here?
[13:21] <cemc> is there any howto on configuring pppoe _server_ on lucid ?
[13:21] <cemc> installing & configuring that is
[13:27] <ruben23> hi i have installed linux server and i see  ksoftirqd/1------>http://pastebin.com/hxkzpjAs-----> getting 20 percent on my CPU, but not running yet.
[13:28] <ruben23> distro is ubuntu-server 8.04
[14:40] <WalterN> is there a way to view what apache is serving out?
[14:48] <zash> WalterN: /var/log/apache/access.log ?
[14:50] <RoyK> ruben23: perhaps it's syncing the raid?
[14:50] <RoyK> oh - no - sorry
[14:50] <RoyK> ruben23: pastebin /proc/interrupts
[15:22] <robertpayne> anyone have a php 5.3.3 package for 10.4 or know of one?
[15:32] <Furtano> hi
[15:32] <Furtano> What is a easy Mailserver for Ubuntu ?
[15:34] <Furtano> How do I remove a program  with configuration (apt-get remove doesnt work well)
[15:35] <sherr> Furtano: look at apt-get "purge"
[15:36] <sherr> "Easy" mail server? I always find Postfix straightforwsard. Good docs.
[15:37] <Furtano> ty
[15:38] <Furtano> postfix tried
[15:38] <Furtano> but selected no configuration
[15:38] <Furtano> and now i want internet configuration
[15:38] <Furtano> dont know how
[15:38] <sherr> http://www.postfix.org - see the docs
[15:42] <robertpayne> Furtano: no mail server is going to be easy to setup they are extremely complex
[15:44] <g0rd0n> hi
[15:48] <robertpayne> hi
[15:48] <robertpayne> When mail relays between two MTA's is it secure? Like my servers postfix to another servers postfix?
[15:48] <sherr> robertpayne: "extremely complex" is over-doing it IMO. I do think that people should not expect to set them up without a bit of reading and research though, and with an eye on security. A basic, secure Postfix mail setup isn't too hard.
[15:49] <sherr> robertpayne: Unless it's encrypted, no. Not very secure.
[15:49] <robertpayne> sherr: true but most people that ask "What is easy Mailserver for Ubuntu" havn't googled anything and thus it will probably be extremely hard for them
[15:49] <robertpayne> sherr: Well I mean if  post it to my server via TLS.. that doesn't guarentee it's going to the other server over TLS
[15:50] <patdk-wk> robertpayne, only if you enforce tls when sending email from your server :)
[15:51] <sherr> That's right. You need end-to-end encryption for full security.
[15:51] <sherr> i.e. the complete mail route, not just to your server.
[15:51] <patdk-wk> and even if every step of it, is secured with ssl or tls
[15:51] <patdk-wk> that means every server it goes though can still read it
[15:51] <robertpayne> patdk-wk: I see.. hmm yea not really sure it's an issue though
[15:51] <patdk-wk> why they use pgp or s/mime
[15:51] <robertpayne> I was just curious
[15:55] <g0rd0n> i am a bit confused by the virtualization stuff... are libvirt and vmbuilder two different things?
[15:55] <robertpayne> I'm actually not hosting my own mail service right now I was going to use postfix to send mail from some scripts but I think ill just point them to my mail service I am paying for anyways
[15:55] <cornelpdt> Is there anybody here who can help with UEC?
[17:58] <r1dolc> Hello
[17:58] <oCean_> hi
[17:58] <r1dolc> I installed a zen kernel in lucidlinx
[17:58] <r1dolc> and after it i update-grub
[17:58] <r1dolc> when i reboots
[17:58] <r1dolc> rebooted, the grub dont show up and if boot in busybox
[17:58] <r1dolc> :/
[17:59] <r1dolc> what can i do to fix it?
[18:03] <r1dolc> i never worked with busybox, but is there something i can do to fix it?
[18:03] <patdk-wk> zen?
[18:04] <r1dolc> yes
[18:04] <r1dolc> http://zen-kernel.org/
[18:08] <ryanakca> ScottK: For Kolab+Dovecot under Maverick, if I'm not mistaken, it should be something along the lines of create a plain install of Maverick server, then apt-get install kolab dovecot-imapd and see if kolab and dovecot play nice together?
[18:14] <r1dolc> anyone have a opinion about it?
[18:25] <axisys> i have two disks on this box but fdisk -l shows only one.. and dm is giving error too

[18:25] <axisys> any idea how to check the status of the second disk ?
[18:25] <axisys> its a sun fire x4100
[18:27] <rasengan> axisys: When you do cat /proc/diskstats do you seea nything
[18:27] <rasengan> `cat /proc/diskstats`
[18:27] <rasengan> (without the ``) somehow i got the impression that `` means exec but maybe im wrong :P
[18:28] <axisys> rasengan: http://pastebin.com/L46bnGxg
[18:28] <axisys> rasengan: so sda looks all zeros
[18:29] <axisys> rasengan: fdisk -l shows only sdb
[18:29] <rasengan> :|
[18:41] <axisys> posted my question in ubuntu-server mailing list
[19:33] <orudie> is there anything that a sudo user cannot do that root user can ?
[19:34] <jpds> orudie: No.
[19:34] <cemc> gimre@voy:~$ sudo echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

[19:50] <bitrate> is there a current opensource solution for hosting something like box.net on my shiny new lamp server (file hosting with web interface)
[20:44] <bitrate> any ideas ??? is there a current opensource solution for hosting something like box.net on my shiny new lamp server (file hosting with web interface)
[20:46] <_ruben> bitrate: i had a co-worker look into that not that long ago, most of the stuff to be found was pretty crappy, especially the free ones
[20:46] <_ruben> then again, i had pretty tight requirements
[20:49] <bitrate> thanks ruben i only found http://blog.box.net/2006/03/27/barriers-to-exit-dont-take-storage-from-a-stranger/
[20:49] <bitrate> dont read it
[21:02] <sherr> bitrate: Maybe take a look at Tahoe-LAFS - http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs
[21:21] <Ximal> I know this is probably a weird and irrelevant question .. But does the server do the same thing that a visual inteface does ?
[21:22] <Ximal> What I mean by this is that , does ubuntu server start rtorrent up or is the apache server already running when you boot the server ? without logging in via user name ..
[21:24] <Ximal> or are username log-in just for running specific things like irssi or gaim or elinks etc ?
[21:24] <Pici> Ximal: If the program exists as a daemon, then it will run at boot.
[21:25] <Pici> apache runs at boot.
[21:25] <Ximal> such as rtorrent and apache
[21:25] <shauno> Ximal: servers typically launch things as services, intended to run 24x7.  so they'll be started at boot, and run until the bitter end
[21:25] <Pici> I don't know how rtorrent behaves, but I suspsect that it has a service.
[21:26] <Ximal> ok ... I'm setting up an actual webserver and seedbox with it's own dedicated cable modem next month and the test run is an old dinosaur aout 5 years old tops with only 256 ddr333 in it and i figured if it can handle it then an atom processor might be able to handle it better .. just comparing ...
[21:27] <Ximal> actually pici yeah .. rtorrent runs as a server ... but I may go for flux since it has a web visual interface ... plus you can specify folders for the most part on where you want things downloaded
[21:27] <Ximal> rtorrent is more one folder oriented ... that or maybe a more versatile cli ran libtorrent client ..
[21:27] <Ximal> anyhow . Thank you Pici about the daemon thing .. I appreciate it m8 .. work easy .. ubuntu harder :)
[23:47] <ryanjamieson> so for some reason when I run hostapd directly to get my wireless nic acting as an AP, it works.  When I try to run it as the daemon from /etc/init.d/ it fails.  anybody in here have a similar experience?
