| ScottK | Hopsa: Why do you think all of Ubuntu server is my personal problem? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottK | I agree it's bad, just not that I'm required to be the one that fixes it. | 00:00 |
| Hopsa | You tried to defend "n0a1ias" and then you started talking to me. | 00:01 |
| Hopsa | n0a1ias is at best a bot at worst a failed experiment to code a bot. | 00:02 |
| n0a1ias | what? | 00:02 |
| n0a1ias | no | 00:02 |
| n0a1ias | im not a bot | 00:02 |
| Hopsa | 1/3 = ? | 00:02 |
| n0a1ias | 1 sec | 00:03 |
| Hopsa | ok | 00:03 |
| n0a1ias | 0.3333333333 | 00:03 |

| n0a1ias | oh, the missing 4 threw me off | 00:06 |
| Hopsa | lol | 00:06 |
| n0a1ias | so yea | 00:07 |
| n0a1ias | not a bot | 00:07 |
| Hopsa | If you scroll up and explain why i could have thought you're then i can accept any outcome of this discussion :) | 00:08 |
| n0a1ias | yea i just did | 00:08 |
| n0a1ias | hah | 00:09 |
| Hopsa | Accepted | 00:09 |
| Hopsa | Where in europe do you live, what country ? | 00:09 |
| n0a1ias | USA.... | 00:10 |
| Hopsa | North or south ? | 00:11 |
| Hopsa | So what ive learned about #ubuntu-server so far is this: ScottK thinks dhcpd is: "It's not a package I personally pay a lot of attention to". n0alias likes the shiny shiny colors (joking) and the rest of the channel is out partying ? | 00:16 |
| n0a1ias | south | 00:16 |
| Hopsa | Thanks! | 00:17 |
| n0a1ias | yep | 00:17 |
| n0a1ias | haha | 00:17 |
| Hopsa | n0a1ias: Is it always this quiet here ? | 00:18 |
| n0a1ias | yea | 00:18 |
| n0a1ias | unfortunitly | 00:18 |
| Hopsa | I feel that some shouldnt be here at all given that regard and respect it deserves. Do you require new staff ? | 00:21 |
| Hopsa | Its very important to care. Am i right ? | 00:25 |

| Hopsa | psi-jack: ? | 01:03 |
| Psi-Jack | Cut the crap, troll. | 01:03 |
| Hopsa | Thanks then i guess. How rude. | 01:04 |
| Psi-Jack | Anyway. | 01:04 |
| Psi-Jack | I found an issue with Ubuntu 10.04's lsb/init-functions that might should be looked into. Basically when using status_of_proc -p PIDFILE DAEMON, it passes it to pidofproc which cares nothing for DAEMON if -p PIDFILE is given so if the PIDFILE doesn't exist it returns rc=4 instead of checking the pidof DAEMON and determining if it's actually running regardless of the pidfile. | 01:05 |
| Psi-Jack | Kinda breaks LSB a bit by returning rc=4 when it could in fact return 0 or 3 as expected. | 01:06 |
| Hopsa | PIDFILE=`cat Location_Of_Pidfile` has worked the best and is the recommended aquireing of PIDS for programs | 01:08 |
| Psi-Jack | Hopsa: Shut it already. | 01:08 |
| Psi-Jack | My fix for it was to alter line 94 of lsb/init-functions to: if [ -x /bin/pidof -a -n "$1" ]; then -- So if DAEMON is passed to it, it assumes since it's already shifted $OPTIN, that it at least has a daemon name. | 01:09 |
| Psi-Jack | That whole check for $specified is really kinda lame. ;) | 01:10 |

| kuttan_ | okay that was not required , but yet .. | 01:23 |
| Psi-Jack | synaptic means you're running X, which means you're not running a server. | 01:23 |

| biodegabriel | Heyall, Does anybody know of a good tutorial on setting Postfix with Ubuntu 10.04? The ones at help.ubuntu.com are way way too wordy and complicated. | 01:50 |
| Psi-Jack | and, what exactly are you trying to do with postfix? | 01:51 |
| Hopsa | http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html | 01:51 |
| Psi-Jack | biodegabriel: And https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix is too wordy and complicated? | 01:51 |
| biodegabriel | thx Hopsa! | 01:51 |
| Hopsa | biodegabriel: Np! | 01:51 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: I was using this one "https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/postfix.html" and it started explaining stuff about paying Certificate Authorities to certify you... I was like... WTF?! | 01:52 |
| Psi-Jack | That looks about the same thing. | 01:53 |
| Psi-Jack | Still.. Not very complicated, compared to past documentation basic guides. :p | 01:53 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: Step 2 sends you to another page where they lecture you on certiifcates. | 01:54 |
| Psi-Jack | Which you don't have to follow that part. :p | 01:54 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: Yeah, but the "note"s come after the instructions. It's totally a-linear. Not what I need in instructions/tutorials. | 01:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Instead, the alternative, creating a self-signed certficiate, or flat-out skipping the sections 2-4 | 01:55 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: Want to setup my Postfix install for me? | 01:55 |
| Psi-Jack | Nope | 01:55 |
| Psi-Jack | I want you to RTFM and follow it as it's written because that guide is actually really fricken nice. :) | 01:56 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: Nice for people who've installed Postfix 12 times before. Not for n00bs like me. | 01:56 |
| Psi-Jack | Actually, it's exactly for "n00bs" like you. | 01:57 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: How many users pay for certified certificates? | 01:57 |
| Psi-Jack | biodegabriel: Millions. However you don't need to get a certified certificate, or even follow the steps 2-4, as I've said already. | 01:58 |
| biodegabriel | Psi-Jack: If only you were sitting beside me ten minutes ago... | 01:58 |
| Psi-Jack | You wouldn't want that. ;) | 01:58 |

| gtpeacock | I just installed 10.04 server. One partition is mounted on installation as type ntfs in fstab. Is there any reason not to use ntfs-3g? | 02:34 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: use dpkg to query what's installed or just look for the sendmail binary | 02:37 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: thx | 02:37 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: 'dpkg -l *sendmail*' or 'which sendmail' | 02:37 |
| pmatulis | respectively | 02:38 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: i was typing 'sendmail which'. LOL | 02:38 |
| pmatulis | hmmm, a sendmail witch, nasty thing | 02:38 |
| Hopsa | biodegabriel: ls /usr/sbin/sendmail | 02:50 |
| Hopsa | Install sendmail-cf if you intend to use it. | 02:50 |

| WinstonSmith | hi everybody. my server 8.04 wont reboot anymore. i give it a reboot or shutdown -r now and just nothing happens... i get the message that it will reboot but nothing | 03:37 |
| dschuett | anyone running squid on 10.04? | 03:38 |
| WinstonSmith | which log should i look at? | 03:38 |
| progre55 | hi guys! anyone knows if "setfacl" works on ubuntu? | 03:39 |
| Hopsa | WinstonSmith: I would urge you to upgrade because ive seen indications on that 8.04 isnt prioritized anymore. An odd decition, but nevertheless perhaps a fact. | 03:41 |
| Hopsa | WinstonSmith: If you run servers and they work ok, then upgrading atm isnt a good option if you rely on a dhcp server as the one in Ubuntu Lucid isnt working as far as i can tell. | 03:43 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, thx for responding. the server belongs to a friend of mine and runs a website blog etc and he does not want to upgrade without me being there and thats 3000 km away :( | 03:43 |
| Hopsa | httpd is ok | 03:43 |
| Hopsa | in Lucid | 03:43 |
| WinstonSmith | yes but can you tell me anything about my question plz? | 03:44 |
| pmatulis | 8.04 server will receive security fixes and critical fixes until April 2013 | 03:44 |
| WinstonSmith | cause i just upgraded the kernel and then tried a "reboot" (uptime was 100 days) and it just doesnt reboot | 03:45 |
| WinstonSmith | which log this kind of command would be logged to? | 03:45 |
| WinstonSmith | yes 8.04 is LTS thats why we chose it | 03:45 |
| Hopsa | WinstonSmith: I do know that one of my friends Ubuntu-8.04 Firefox stopped working. Perhaps due to an upgrade he did, but the result was he had no browser anymore. "ns_loginit()" problem, possibly due to different versions of xulrunnel. | 03:46 |
| Hopsa | "shutdown -h now" ? | 03:47 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, yes but im talking about a headless server no GUI or FF | 03:47 |
| Hopsa | "shutdown -r now" ? | 03:47 |
| Hopsa | -r Requests that the system be rebooted after it has been brought | 03:47 |
| Hopsa | down. | 03:47 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, as i said above "shutdown -h now" or reboot produce the message that system is going down for reboot and then nothing happens | 03:48 |
| WinstonSmith | reboot just being an alias to "shutdown -h now" | 03:48 |
| Hopsa | Yep | 03:48 |
| Hopsa | or ... -r now | 03:49 |
| WinstonSmith | i have no entry in dmesg or /var/log/messages related to my reboot try | 03:49 |
| Hopsa | -h means shut down or (halt) | 03:49 |
| WinstonSmith | oh yeah typo sry | 03:49 |
| Hopsa | np | 03:49 |
| Hopsa | So, nothing happens ? | 03:50 |
| WinstonSmith | is there any other log that i could look at ... this behavior is really strange | 03:50 |
| Hopsa | also check /var/log/secure | 03:50 |
| WinstonSmith | the machine had a load of 3x for weeks cause we had a runaway msql and a gameserver who ate all resources ... maybe related to that? | 03:51 |
| EvilPhoenix | lol | 03:51 |
| WinstonSmith | i have no /var/log/secure | 03:52 |
| EvilPhoenix | is there a way to see how you're doing on disc space on VPS systems in openvz? | 03:52 |
| Hopsa | ls /var/log | 03:52 |
| WinstonSmith | yes i just moved from portugal to germany so i wasnt really on top of things ... no internet | 03:52 |
| Hopsa | some dists call it "security" etc | 03:52 |
| WinstonSmith | yes i know | 03:52 |
| Hopsa | reboot it and see if setjmp will work correctly then. | 03:53 |
| WinstonSmith | nothing with that name around | 03:53 |
| dschuett | does anyone run squid on ubuntu 10.04 | 03:54 |
| Hopsa | Yep | 03:54 |
| biodegabriel | Hey all, What do I do when a package I'm trying to install can't be found? Do I try another source? http://pastie.org/1121778 | 03:55 |
| Hopsa | dschuett: squid-2.7STABLE7 | 03:57 |
| dschuett | Hopsa: does it run ok? | 03:57 |
| dschuett | i can't stop start or reload, i get this: reload: Unknown instance: | 03:58 |
| Hopsa | Yes, but watch out for the switch to Squid 3. Then you must remove acl "all" because its been built in. | 03:58 |
| Hopsa | For some unknown reason. | 03:58 |
| dschuett | ah, ok thanks for the heads up | 03:59 |
| Hopsa | Np. Stop it then start it... ? | 03:59 |
| dschuett | Hopsa: when i do a squid stop...i get: squid is already running! | 03:59 |
| dschuett | same with start and reload | 03:59 |
| Hopsa | Hmm, hmm... | 04:00 |
| Hopsa | killall -9 squid | 04:00 |
| dschuett | if i do this: /etc/init.d/squid reload stop or start i get unknown instance | 04:00 |
| Hopsa | it could have a lingering .lock file in /var/lock/squid.lock or so | 04:01 |
| Hopsa | Perhaps due to a powerfailure or so | 04:01 |
| dschuett | Hopsa: that killed it...i was able to start it, but on squid stop or reload it says "squid is already running!" | 04:02 |
| dschuett | are you on ubuntu 10.04? | 04:02 |
| Hopsa | Yes, i have one of those running beside me | 04:02 |
| WinstonSmith | anyone else an idea why shutdown -r now does not work anymore? | 04:02 |
| dschuett | damn, i googled the error, and a lot of people are having this issue...but no solutions | 04:03 |
| EvilPhoenix | you tried shutdown -h? | 04:03 |
| EvilPhoenix | er | 04:03 |
| EvilPhoenix | nevermind | 04:03 |
| EvilPhoenix | ah to restart | 04:04 |
| EvilPhoenix | one sec | 04:04 |
| Hopsa | dschuett: Try to start and stop squid manually and see if its the scripts that call squid the wrong way. | 04:04 |
| Hopsa | call = try to start | 04:04 |
| WinstonSmith | EvilPhoenix, i have to reboot the server is offsite ~3000km away :| | 04:04 |
| Hopsa | I wonder if winston could signal the init process to make a reboot somehow... | 04:05 |
| EvilPhoenix | shutdown -r worked for me on both my servers | 04:06 |
| dschuett | Hopsa: not sure how to do what you are asking | 04:06 |
| EvilPhoenix | not sure if its just your system | 04:06 |
| EvilPhoenix | WinstonSmith: ^ | 04:06 |
| Hopsa | Init should have a process id of "1". Does it have that winston ? | 04:07 |
| WinstonSmith | EvilPhoenix, the server is running fine for 2.5 years. every 2 month or so i make all the updates and reboot. never had a single problem wiith it rocksolid :) | 04:07 |
| WinstonSmith | hopsa 1 sec | 04:07 |
| WinstonSmith | yes it does | 04:08 |
| Hopsa | dschuett: Your scripts try to start and stop servers one way, perhaps they are not doing it correctly. Try stopping squid and then starting it manually. "squid -k start" maybe (cant remeber atm) | 04:08 |
| Hopsa | squid -k reconfigure | rotate | shutdown | interrupt | kill | debug | check | | 04:10 |
| Hopsa | parse | 04:10 |
| Hopsa | squid -k shutdown && squid | 04:11 |
| dschuett | k, did that | 04:11 |
| Hopsa | squid -k shutdown && squid || echo "I have failed to stop and start squid" | 04:11 |
| Hopsa | Worked ok ? | 04:11 |
| Hopsa | then id suspect the sysinit script | 04:11 |
| dschuett | yeah, it killed it | 04:12 |
| Hopsa | and started ok ? | 04:12 |
| dschuett | just try squid start? | 04:12 |
| Hopsa | k | 04:12 |
| dschuett | says squid is already running | 04:12 |
| dschuett | any easy way to upgrade to 3.0? | 04:13 |
| biodegabriel | Hopsa: Do you know what I'm doing wrong here? http://pastie.org/1121802 | 04:16 |
| Hopsa | dschuett: use the debian versions | 04:17 |
| Hopsa | checking | 04:17 |
| Hopsa | isnt itr libsasl ? ... use a "*" if unsure | 04:17 |
| WinstonSmith | biodegabriel, do you have all the repos enabled? | 04:18 |
| Hopsa | itr/it | 04:18 |
| Hopsa | bbiaw | 04:18 |
| WinstonSmith | cause my apt-cache gives me libgsasl7 - GNU SASL library | 04:18 |

| pmatulis | biodegabriel: just what are you trying to do? | 04:22 |
| WinstonSmith | biodegabriel, hmmm thats really strange because the package is in the universe repos which you have enabled | 04:22 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: install mailutils. i'm following this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto | 04:22 |

| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: try 'reboot' | 04:29 |
| WinstonSmith | pmatulis, please read my msg | 04:29 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: oh | 04:30 |
| WinstonSmith | ;) | 04:30 |
| pmatulis | 'shutdown -r now' ? | 04:30 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: well? | 04:30 |
| WinstonSmith | pmatulis, in my msg i said : reboot, shutdown -r and init 6 dont work | 04:31 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: just a sec. | 04:31 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: but not 'shutdown -r now' | 04:31 |
| WinstonSmith | yes but thats just the timer | 04:31 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: try it then | 04:32 |
| WinstonSmith | i tried all that for quite some time now.... thats wjy im asking | 04:32 |
| WinstonSmith | why* | 04:32 |
| WinstonSmith | if theres any other way to reboot | 04:32 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: any output from these commands? | 04:33 |
| WinstonSmith | i give it a reboot or shutdown -r now and just nothing happens... i get the message that it will reboot but nothing | 04:33 |
| WinstonSmith | no entry in dmesg or /var/log/messages | 04:33 |
| biodegabriel | sorry pmatulis, i'm doing something wrong. is this the right command? http://pastie.org/1121824 | 04:33 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: anything in the logs? | 04:33 |
| WinstonSmith | no entry in dmesg or /var/log/messages | 04:33 |
| WinstonSmith | is there any other log you could point me to? | 04:34 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: your're thrashing, please stop | 04:34 |
| pmatulis | WinstonSmith: type 'dmesg' | 04:34 |
| biodegabriel | thrashing? | 04:34 |
| Hopsa | WinstonSmith: "reboot -f" ? | 04:35 |
| Hopsa | force | 04:35 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, ok will try that | 04:35 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: answer my question re discrepency between your sources.list file and the error output | 04:35 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: i was using another source cause i tried 4 other ones and they all said that the package couldn't be found. should i edit my sources list everytime i want to try a different source? | 04:37 |
| pmatulis | biodegabriel: just stop thrashing like that. use the official mirrors | 04:37 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, thats seems to have helped :D. i have to wait a bit now to see because it will fsck at boot and has over 2 TB so takes some time | 04:37 |
| biodegabriel | pmatulis: what are the official mirrors? i got my mirrors from this list https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors | 04:38 |
| WinstonSmith | Hopsa, pmatulis thank you for your time & have a nice day (or night whereever you are) | 04:38 |

| WinstonSmith | any experiences with upgrading 8.04 to 10.04 while SSH'ing into the box? | 05:31 |
| WinstonSmith | because do-release-upgrade throws a big fat warning that it shouldnt be done over SSH but how do you do it if the box is offsite? | 05:33 |
| strax | I got that warning, did it anyway | 05:42 |
| strax | 9.10 to 10.04 | 05:42 |
| strax | worked fine | 05:42 |
| WinstonSmith | strax, no problems at all? did you had to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst ? | 05:44 |
| strax | No, but again I was just doing one release to the next, not lts to lts | 05:45 |
| WinstonSmith | because the box is ~3000 km away a bit far to plug in a monitor and KB ;) | 05:45 |
| strax | heh | 05:45 |
| WinstonSmith | strax, ok thank you . i think i will ponder that for some more time | 05:46 |
| WinstonSmith | you know never change a running system etc heheh | 05:46 |
| strax | Apparently a second ssh connection is opened up on another port, just in case | 05:46 |
| strax | Although I don't see how that helps things | 05:47 |
| WinstonSmith | yes it said so but still ... at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades it says that you may have to edit the menu.lst etc. that would not be a problem but still if it MAY not run smoothly im done for it | 05:48 |
| strax | Is there a pressing reason to upgrade? | 05:49 |
| WinstonSmith | sry was afk. more ore less ... just to have a homogeneous environment | 05:56 |
| Jordan_U | WinstonSmith: Make sure you run it in screen, and be prepared to completely lose remote access to it if something goes wrong. | 05:57 |
| WinstonSmith | and since the new LTS is out... | 05:57 |
| WinstonSmith | Jordan_U, thanks for the tip will do ! | 05:57 |
| Jordan_U | WinstonSmith: You're welcome. | 05:57 |
| WinstonSmith | Jordan_U, if i lose remote then does it reboot automatically at the end or do i gain remote again and reconnect to screen? | 05:58 |
| Jordan_U | WinstonSmith: I don't think it will reboot automatically. | 05:59 |

| alex88 | joschi: what about just copy /var/cache/apt/archived? | 09:22 |
| alex88 | *archives | 09:22 |
| joschi | alex88: you could do that | 09:23 |
| alex88 | nice..i think is the faster way..then when synaptic tryies to update find there the packages..or i have to do some cache refresh or something similar to make it find those? | 09:23 |

| RoyK | hi all. if I install a VM using virt-manager, the host is running Lucid and so is the guest - will this be setup using paravirt or hwvirt? | 15:02 |
| Patrickdk | you can do either | 15:06 |
| RoyK | Patrickdk: from virt-manager, how do I check if a VM is PV or not? | 15:08 |
| Patrickdk | dunno, I never use virt-manager | 15:09 |
| RoyK | ok, from the command line, then? | 15:09 |
| Patrickdk | dunno I never use the command line | 15:09 |
| Patrickdk | I only do xen and esx vm's | 15:10 |
| Patrickdk | I assume your doing kvm based | 15:10 |
| RoyK | it is | 15:10 |
| RoyK | I gave up paravirtualizing ubuntu with xen | 15:10 |
| Patrickdk | all of my linux xen's are paravirtual | 15:16 |
| RoyK | Patrickdk: xen told me the .iso file didn't contain a known linux install - I asked around and couldn't find how to do things properly.... | 15:18 |
| Patrickdk | xen? iso files? | 15:18 |
| Patrickdk | not sure how you did it | 15:18 |
| RoyK | ubuntu-10.04 iso | 15:18 |
| Patrickdk | but then again, I never installed a xen guest from an iso | 15:18 |
| RoyK | never mind - kvm works well | 15:18 |
| Patrickdk | just used deb builder | 15:19 |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| RoyK | it's somehow quite understandable that ubuntu has and now redhat will move to kvm | 15:19 |
| SpamapS | RoyK: I believe maverick will be much more friendly to xen btw. | 15:54 |
| RoyK | SpamapS: doesn't really matter so long as kvm works well :) | 15:55 |
| SpamapS | RoyK: right, I agree. I think though, there is some desire to make it work better w/ xen because of some EC2 stuff. | 15:56 |
| * SpamapS realizes he has wandered into completely unfamiliar territory at this point. | 15:59 | |
| Patrickdk | yep | 15:59 |
| RoyK | operating ubuntu is quite boring, really | 16:04 |
| RoyK | there's lots of more action with certain other platforms | 16:05 |
| JamesHarrison | Here's an interesting one: How the heck do I get the scst module into the kernel, preferably without doing the compile-from-source dance? | 16:12 |
| RoyK | JamesHarrison: a kernel module must be compiled for a compatible kernel - if you, say, download a redhat kernel module, it will probably use symbols not in the ubuntu kernel | 16:33 |
| JamesHarrison | RoyK: I found https://launchpad.net/~ast/+archive/scst which is a precompiled pae kernel with the scst module, which has worked a treat now I've actually booted into it. :) | 16:33 |
| RoyK | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/scst | 16:34 |
| RoyK | I guess you've been there already, though :) | 16:34 |
| JamesHarrison | yeah, that too- the fact that you reboot and ofc it doesn't boot into the new kernel confused me :) | 16:34 |
| JamesHarrison | Too used to gentoo, heh :) | 16:35 |
| RoyK | running Lucid? | 16:35 |
| RoyK | with grub2? | 16:35 |
| JamesHarrison | Updated /etc/defaults/grub.conf to have the correct default, now works fine | 16:35 |
| RoyK | grub2 is a PITA imho | 16:35 |
| RoyK | k | 16:35 |
| JamesHarrison | Beats grub1/lilo :D | 16:35 |
| RoyK | grub1 works well | 16:36 |
| * Patrickdk hasn't had any issues with grub2, on >20 systems | 16:36 | |
| RoyK | lilo is something that belongs in the ninetees | 16:36 |
| RoyK | Patrickdk: well, it works, but I find the configuration easier in old grub1 | 16:36 |
| Patrickdk | ya, cause the old grub didn't do much, well actually didn't do anything :) | 16:37 |
| Patrickdk | grub2 is a mini-os | 16:37 |
| RoyK | perhaps I'm just being overly conservative here :) | 16:38 |
| * RoyK wants to bomb Oracle | 16:38 | |

| arrrghhh | hey all. not really an ubuntu question, more of a networking question... netmasks confuse me, if i just want the netmask to include one ip, do i set the mask to 0? | 16:55 |
| arrrghhh | so 192.168.0.5/0 would just include that one IP? | 16:55 |
| shauno | I think /32 would | 16:59 |
| arrrghhh | because that's how many bits are borrowed...? | 17:00 |
| arrrghhh | netmasks confuse the hell out of me. | 17:00 |
| shauno | I'm not sure /0 is a legal operand. if you look at an IP as binary rather than decimal, you get something like 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111111 .. the /n tells you how many bits of that aren't allowed to change | 17:00 |
| arrrghhh | oh i see | 17:01 |
| arrrghhh | so /32 would say no bits can change basically. | 17:01 |
| shauno | so /8 covers every IP under the first quad, /16 everything under the first and second, etc | 17:01 |
| shauno | yeah. /32 would allow no bits to vary from what you gave | 17:01 |
| arrrghhh | i had that backwards then. | 17:01 |
| arrrghhh | ok | 17:01 |
| shauno | in theory; never tried it because that's a very odd use for netmasks :) | 17:02 |
| arrrghhh | so 192.168.0.100-255... would /24 work for that...? | 17:02 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 17:02 |
| arrrghhh | i'm trying to do QoS on my dd-wrt router. | 17:02 |
| shauno | /24 would give you 192.168.0.* | 17:02 |
| arrrghhh | even if i specify the mask starting at 192.168.0.100? | 17:03 |
| shauno | I believe so, because 24 (3*8) is the first three quads | 17:03 |
| arrrghhh | hrm | 17:03 |
| arrrghhh | i took a class that was supposed to teach me this stuff. blargh. | 17:04 |
| arrrghhh | it helped me with understanding how it pieces together at a high level, but building netmasks still confuses me. | 17:04 |
| shauno | after that, every 1 you add halves the space, so /25 would give you xxx.xxx.xxx.0-127 and xxx.xxx.xxx.128-255 | 17:05 |
| arrrghhh | i see. | 17:05 |
| shauno | /26 would be 0-65, 64-127, 128-19... something. 191? | 17:05 |
| arrrghhh | perhaps i should change my dhcp range to match the netmask. | 17:05 |
| shauno | netmasks make complete sense when you look at it as being 4 8bit binary numbers, rather than just 4 decimal numbers. it's going between the two that confuses everyone :) | 17:06 |
| arrrghhh | yes! | 17:06 |
| arrrghhh | that's exactly the problem. the conversion in my head gets lost somewhere. | 17:07 |
| shauno | I dunno if it's just me, but taking the first 4 bits off 11111111 is much easier to picture, than taking the first 4 bits off 255 | 17:08 |
| shauno | but just halving the available addresses every time /n increments seems a pretty usable shortcut | 17:09 |
| arrrghhh_ | well hopefully my QoS works right now. | 17:11 |
| === arrrghhh_ is now known as arrrghhh | ||
| arrrghhh | that's better. | 17:12 |
| arrrghhh | sweet! QoS appears to be working. hopefully the router doesn't freak out again. | 17:14 |
| arrrghhh | last time i set this up based on port numbers, and the router couldn't handle it. kept resetting and freakin out, had to turn it off entirely. | 17:14 |
