| demonspork | guhcampos, I had that issue with a hardware raid recently and it turns out I just needed to wait | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| guhcampos | hmmm | 00:01 |
| demonspork | so let it sit for a while, it seems to be doing something that takes a long time when it is at 33% | 00:01 |
| guhcampos | it's taking a lot long | 00:01 |
| guhcampos | but I'm wainting | 00:01 |
| demonspork | yeah, it stauyed there for 45+ minutes | 00:01 |
| guhcampos | let's see how long it will make me wait | 00:01 |
| guhcampos | oh god | 00:01 |
| demonspork | of course I was formatting a 660GB partition on a 6 drive RAID 5 | 00:02 |
| demonspork | do any of you know how to add IP addresses without dropping all current connections on the already configured IP? I have 4 I need to add on top of the 1 that is currently configured and I would prefer that the 30 some connections that are active on the current IP do not get dropped | 00:07 |

| arrrghhh | so i'm having samba issues. my win7 laptop will randomly ask for a password when trying to get to the share, but my girlfriend's win7 laptop never does. i'd prefer to not require a password to get into samba, assuming they're on my LAN. I don't think samba is even accessible over the WAN, so I don't really see the need of putting a password on the share. | 02:04 |

| talcite | hey guys. I'm having a problem with snmpd where the agent isn't detecting any incoming snmp requests. I'm certain it's not the firewall interfereing | 02:19 |
| talcite | interfering* | 02:19 |
| talcite | atleast, iptables. could it be comething else? Does snmp do anything weird with portmapper or something? | 02:19 |
| arrrghhh | can you snmpwalk the localhost? | 02:20 |
| talcite | arrrghhh: nope, that's what I'm using to test, along with scli | 02:21 |
| talcite | snmpd's logs don't even show that something's connecting, whereas with scli from localhost, it shows up in the log | 02:21 |
| talcite | however, it's not the firewall, since I have a rule letting it through, and when I take it out, the dropped packet messages show up in the logs | 02:21 |
| arrrghhh | so wait | 02:22 |
| talcite | and of course, when I put the rule back into the firewall, there aren't any dropped packet messages | 02:22 |
| arrrghhh | you can't snmpwalk the local machine? | 02:22 |
| arrrghhh | i think you should be able to do that... | 02:22 |
| talcite | oh the local machine? yes I can | 02:22 |
| arrrghhh | lol ok. | 02:22 |
| talcite | sorry, I misread that | 02:22 |
| arrrghhh | just making sure snmp works :P | 02:22 |
| arrrghhh | and are you on a LAN? | 02:23 |
| arrrghhh | or are you doing this over the internet? | 02:23 |
| hggdh | Daviey: \o/ 2,000 instances submitted, 1.971 successes! yay! | 02:23 |
| talcite | a university LAN, yes | 02:23 |
| talcite | I've had the proper ports opened, and my firewall test seems to confirm that there's no dropped packets | 02:23 |
| talcite | dropped packets in transit by an upstream switch I should say | 02:23 |
| arrrghhh | hrm | 02:24 |
| arrrghhh | have you nmapped it? | 02:24 |
| talcite | yes, the port doesn't show up as open | 02:24 |
| talcite | which is a bit strange | 02:24 |
| arrrghhh | are you using ufw | 02:25 |
| arrrghhh | or iptables | 02:25 |
| talcite | firehol | 02:25 |
| arrrghhh | on the ubuntu server? | 02:25 |
| talcite | It doesn't work even if I shutdown firehol | 02:26 |
| talcite | yes | 02:26 |
| talcite | both machines are running ubuntu server | 02:26 |
| talcite | 10.04 | 02:26 |
| arrrghhh | huh never heard of firehol. | 02:27 |
| arrrghhh | is it another front-end for iptables...? | 02:27 |
| talcite | it's pretty handy. | 02:28 |
| talcite | Yes it is | 02:28 |
| talcite | it's more or less cross-distro as well, meaning you don't need to learn more than 1 firewall syntax to administer mixed environments. | 02:28 |
| arrrghhh | huh | 02:28 |
| arrrghhh | cool | 02:28 |
| arrrghhh | but if you can't nmap the port, it's probably not open on either a) the firewall on your machine or b) the firewall in your network. | 02:29 |
| talcite | actually I tested it from another machine on the same switch (which means it doesn't enter the university network), and it's still no good. | 02:30 |
| talcite | one sec, I'm going to nmap it again with different options | 02:30 |
| talcite | there's several ports opened and it didn't pick them all up | 02:30 |
| arrrghhh | well | 02:30 |
| arrrghhh | if you couldn't do it on the same switch... | 02:30 |
| arrrghhh | then you've gotta have sometihng wrong in firehol. | 02:30 |
| arrrghhh | i'm assuming you can still poll iptables | 02:31 |
| arrrghhh | i think it's iptables -L | 02:31 |
| talcite | I stopped it completely (unloaded all the rules from iptables) and it's still not working | 02:31 |
| talcite | OH! | 02:31 |
| talcite | damnit I bet you snmpd binded to the wrong interface | 02:31 |
| talcite | There's multiple on these machines | 02:31 |
| arrrghhh | lol | 02:31 |
| arrrghhh | that would do it too | 02:31 |

| ztripez | i have a server with 2 nics.. they show up in lspci but when i do a /etc/init.d/networking restart it say that eth0 and eth1 cant be found... | 13:02 |
| maedox | ztripez, they might not be named eth0 and eth1. | 13:02 |
| ztripez | maedox, where can i found the name of them? | 13:03 |
| maedox | they are set in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules here, your filename may be different. | 13:05 |
| ztripez | maedox, ok since i switched network cards the addressing is wrong i guess? | 13:07 |
| maedox | yes that could happen | 13:07 |
| ztripez | maedox, any easy way to restet or do i have to du it manualy? | 13:08 |
| maedox | I think you can change the names in that file and then do sudo service udev restart and then restart networking. | 13:10 |
| ztripez | maedox, ok i got one of them to work (was assigned to eth2) but the other one doesn't work | 13:18 |
| ztripez | dmesg | grep eth | 13:18 |
| ztripez | [ 0.992214] 0000:00:19.0: eth1: (PCI Express:2.5GB/s:Width x1) 00:1d:09:84:59:1f | 13:18 |
| ztripez | [ 0.992217] 0000:00:19.0: eth1: Intel(R) PRO/10/100 Network Connection | 13:18 |
| ztripez | [ 0.992236] 0000:00:19.0: eth1: MAC: 7, PHY: 7, PBA No: ffffff-0ff | 13:18 |
| ztripez | [ 8.894663] udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth2 | 13:18 |
| ztripez | so it finds eth1 but.. | 13:18 |
| maedox | is the mac address correct in the udev file? | 13:19 |
| ztripez | maedox, how do i get the mac adress? | 13:19 |
| maedox | good question, I honestly can't remember right now. give me a minute. | 13:25 |
| ztripez | hm.. when i do a ifconfig -a i get eth2 and eth1_rename | 13:26 |
| maedox | oh yeah, doesn't the mac address get listed on ifconfig? | 13:27 |
| ztripez | dooh, yes it does | 13:27 |

| maedox | ztripez, great :) | 13:30 |
| maedox | ztripez, it's probably some service that needs restarting, but a reboot solves it alright :P | 13:30 |
| Martens1984 | maedox: Nah, it tells me: #ubuntu Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services | 13:30 |
| maedox | Martens1984, aha, you probably need to register your nick with NickServ. | 13:31 |
| Martens1984 | maedox: I thought I did, I get this ubuntu/unregged server witch asks me a question, if I anser it, I should be able to join #ubuntu, but no... | 13:34 |
| ztripez | trying to put up a UEC.. got it controlers installed.. both nics working eth0 as public and eth1 as private.. but don't i have to configure the dhcp server to lease ip's to the private network? | 13:38 |

| Martens1984 | If I ping to <servername> my ubuntu tries to reach e.g. 10.1.0.1 instead of 10.0.1.1, what could be wrong? | 13:41 |

| Martens1984 | both | 13:42 |
| maedox | ok, then that's why. I'm not sure how it selects which one to ping. | 13:43 |
| Martens1984 | thats cuz I entered 10.0.1.1 in the hostfile | 13:43 |
| Martens1984 | I gues | 13:43 |
| Martens1984 | but how can I remove the wrong IP? | 13:44 |
| maedox | that's weird, it should use the one in your hosts file. | 13:44 |
| maedox | you have to edit the DNS server config. | 13:44 |
| Martens1984 | the DNS server gives only the right Ip... :S | 13:45 |
| maedox | huh? | 13:45 |
| maedox | then I don't know where it gets 10.1.0.1 | 13:45 |
| Martens1984 | and on the windows machine I'm on ping <servername> works perfectly | 13:45 |
| maedox | do they use the same DNS server, and is your /etc/hosts file correct? | 13:46 |
| Martens1984 | yes | 13:47 |
| Martens1984 | I get this reply if I ping: | 13:48 |
| Martens1984 | From icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable | 13:48 |
| Martens1984 | From <this_pc> (xx.xx.xx) icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable | 13:49 |
| Martens1984 | I simply gues I fuck up to much trying to integrate Ubuntu-server to W2K3-server | 13:50 |
| maedox | if you type in nslookup - ip.address.for.dnsserver and then query it for the servername, does it give the right one? | 13:51 |
| maedox | yes, I don't know, this all sounds weird. I'm not sure what's up. | 13:51 |
| Martens1984 | hah... it throws out both ip's | 13:51 |
| maedox | then there is something up with the DNS | 13:52 |
| maedox | what's the output of the query? | 13:52 |
| Martens1984 | Name: <servername> | 13:53 |
| Martens1984 | Address: 10.1.0.10 | 13:53 |
| Martens1984 | Name: <servername> | 13:53 |
| Martens1984 | Address: 10.0.1.10 | 13:53 |
| maedox | then there must be two A records with same servername and different IP-addresses in the DNS. | 13:54 |
| Martens1984 | <servername> being servername.domain.name | 13:54 |
| maedox | or the DNS is doing some strange stuff :) | 13:54 |
| Martens1984 | if I use nslookup from another pc, it only gives the right address | 13:55 |
| maedox | right, you mentioned that. very weird indeed. | 13:56 |
| maedox | there should not be any caching of dns by default in ubuntu, but that's the only thing I can think of. | 13:57 |
| Martens1984 | it runs a DHCP server... but so does the server I try to reach, this server did not lease any IP | 13:58 |
| maedox | I'm out of ideas. Maybe try rebooting or at least service networking restart. | 14:01 |
| sCOTTo | hey guys, I am setting up a ubuntu server to serve Virtual servers on inside an office. One VS will be a windows server. I have a machine with 2 x 1 TB SataII drives. Should I be striping these or Mirroring them or keeping them as two ??? | 14:03 |
| au | I would mirror them for backup reasons | 14:04 |
| sCOTTo | How does that help for backup? would it not be better to have daily backups running ? | 14:04 |
| maedox | sCOTTo, yeah, mirroring is the way to go if they need to be up all the time. | 14:04 |
| sCOTTo | or does the mirror allow for Redundancy ? | 14:04 |
| Martens1984 | tru, but mirroring... wel you just figured it out | 14:04 |
| maedox | sCOTTo, backups mean you have to reinstall the backup. RAID 1 will let you change one disk while the other works. Assuming they are hot-swap disks/controller. | 14:05 |
| sCOTTo | ok so the next question... can I use SOFTWARE within Ubuntu to set up the mirror or do I need a Sata Raid Card setup ? | 14:05 |
| Martens1984 | If one crashes, you simply replace it and continu servering | 14:05 |
| sCOTTo | ok sweet - sold on mirror. | 14:05 |
| hggdh | Daviey: second run: 2,003 instances submitted, 1,975 successes | 14:05 |

| sCOTTo | I dont have the raid card or ability on the MB thats all :( | 14:06 |
| sCOTTo | its a AMD 64-but MB | 14:06 |
| maedox | sCOTTo, just make sure that hot-swap is possible. ;) | 14:06 |
| sCOTTo | I do think so... | 14:06 |
| sCOTTo | I should GG the mb huh lol | 14:06 |
| maedox | sCOTTo, If a small down-time is acceptable you can shutdown, change disk and reboot. | 14:07 |
| sCOTTo | yeah a small downtime should not be a problem... | 14:07 |
| sCOTTo | should I buy a stack of the same HDDs so I ahve back up drives ?? | 14:07 |
| Daviey | hggdh, I'm pretty happy with those stats as stress testing goes :) | 14:07 |
| sCOTTo | hmmm it has RAID 0,1 whats that ? | 14:08 |
| maedox | sCOTTo, 0,1 just means it can do RAID 0 or RAID 1. RAID 0 being striping (data divided between disks) and RAID 1 being mirroring. | 14:09 |
| Martens1984 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundant_Array_of_Independent_Disks#RAID-0 ;) | 14:09 |
| sCOTTo | ok so the MB can Mirror then yes ? | 14:10 |
| maedox | yes | 14:10 |
| sCOTTo | :D I guess thats a good thing ;) now I gotta figure out HOW | 14:10 |
| sCOTTo | lol | 14:10 |
| maedox | yes, that it the question. there is probably a hotkey for configuring it when you boot up your machine. | 14:10 |
| Martens1984 | lol... reboot and check BIOS startup carefully.... you should enter a combination of keys to enter the raid setup | 14:10 |
| Martens1984 | ... ore there should be a driver to acces the raid setup within Windows... in ubuntu I'm not sure | 14:11 |

| Ethos | hi guys, I've installed fail2ban but I'm receiving "Restarting authentication failure monitor fail2ban start-stop-daemon: Unable to set gid to 0" | 15:06 |
| Ethos | Any ideas? | 15:06 |
| hurra | when will there be a kernel update for 10.04? | 15:12 |
| smoser | kirkland, ping | 15:23 |
| smoser | or maybe daviey or ttx know. | 15:23 |
| smoser | how is /etc/motd.d/* executed on login ? | 15:23 |
| ttx | smoser: ask and you shall find | 15:24 |
| smoser | i can't trace this. | 15:24 |
| ttx | I think it's through pam-motd | 15:24 |
| smoser | i suspect pam_motd.so, but nothing says that it should update that. | 15:24 |
| smoser | yeah | 15:24 |
| * ttx looks | 15:26 | |
| smoser | so something updates /etc/motd, and i can't find what | 15:26 |
| smoser | (it does so by runparts of /etc/update-motd.d) | 15:26 |
| Daviey | and people don't see the point of shipping the server guide on the install.... | 15:27 |
| Daviey | smoser, $ w3m /usr/share/ubuntu-serverguide/html/C/pam_motd.html | 15:27 |
| ttx | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man8/pam_motd.8.html sounds a bit out of date | 15:28 |
| smoser | so pam runs (as root) stuff in /etc/update-motd.d on *every* login ? | 15:30 |
| Daviey | erm | 15:31 |
| Daviey | don't think it does | 15:31 |

| Daviey | Ethos, yes | 15:35 |
| Ethos | Finding it good? :) | 15:35 |
| smoser | yeah. daviey, i just did the same thing. | 15:36 |
| smoser | as root, and every time. | 15:36 |
| Daviey | Ethos, functional :)... I actually use that and Denyhosts depending what the server is, what i'm in the mood for, if it's raining or sunny :) | 15:36 |
| Ethos | heh | 15:36 |
| Daviey | smoser, heh | 15:36 |
| Ethos | Cool, I've just thought about security on my linode and realised I was a bit slack with it | 15:36 |
| maedox | There is also sshd-autoban, which can add IP-addresses to either hosts.deny or iptables. | 15:38 |
| thafreak | Ethos: I just switched to fail2ban from denyhosts | 15:39 |
| ttx | SpamapS: ping | 15:39 |
| thafreak | It seems to use a constant ammount of ram, where denyhosts slowly used more | 15:40 |
| thafreak | I was wary of using something that messed with iptables at first, but it runs well | 15:40 |
| Ethos | interesting :) | 15:43 |

| SpamapS | Comment added w/ pointers to the MIR's | 17:03 |
| ttx | SpamapS: I think doko's point is that the dependencies were not MIRed | 17:05 |
| SpamapS | ttx: err, all of those are from the libmemcached source package | 17:07 |
| ttx | SpamapS: just a sec | 17:09 |

| SpamapS | ttx: MIR's are by source package. Yes? | 17:16 |

| SpamapS | so .. yeah I think Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 6), libevent-dev, quilt (>= 0.46-7) | 17:18 |
| SpamapS | So yeah, I think we're all good | 17:18 |
| ttx | they must have missed promotion. | 17:20 |

| smoser | yeah. once i took 10 minutes to actually look at it, it was obvious that only 1 thing could really be causing the failure. | 19:22 |
| Daviey | smoser, now you mention it.... replace('L', 'c') <-- LOL :) | 19:24 |
| Daviey | smoser, I guess that should have jumped out at us sooner :) | 19:24 |
| smoser | well, the 'L' being replaced is the last letter of 0xABCDEF....GBL | 19:25 |
| smoser | (ie, 'Long') | 19:25 |
| smoser | and they "fixed" that issue that they were no doubt seeing 1 in 10 times or so by adding the replace | 19:25 |

| smoser | (it just bought them an extra digit) | 19:25 |

| smoser | i uploaded. | 19:26 |
| Daviey | i saw it in the queue... i would imagine that will get through | 19:26 |

| IamReck | Hi I am looking for help getting 10.04 to syslog to Centos 5.5. | 22:06 |
| guntbert | IamReck: you will have to debug that on the centOS side I'm afraid, as syslog requires no acknowledgement from the syslog server ( if I remember correctly ) | 22:07 |
| IamReck | Question for the Ubuntu one, though, if I edit the /etc/syslog.conf, will those settings be obeyed by rsyslog/ | 22:08 |
| IamReck | ? | 22:08 |
| RoyK | IamReck: just log to @your.centos.box | 22:08 |
| IamReck | RoyK, that's what I'm doing. | 22:09 |
| RoyK | obviously the centos box will need to listen to 514/udp | 22:09 |
| IamReck | syslog is listening. | 22:09 |
| Four2zero | i did a mistake on a command, and removed a initrd.image from ubuntu-server by mistake how can i retrieve this file back ? | 22:12 |
| RoyK | IamReck: that should be all iirc | 22:12 |
| RoyK | IamReck: can you try to sniff outgoing udp traffic from the ubuntu box? | 22:13 |
| Four2zero | this is the command i accidently used sudo rm -rf /initrd.img | 22:14 |
| Four2zero | is there any way to retrieve this file back ? | 22:14 |
