ScottKVerahsa: It's much better to ask specific questions rather as for an unspecified commitment of people's time.  If people know, they will usually answer.00:03
VerahsaI gathered that just about 10 seconds ago as I started reading the terms of service *blush* My apologies. I'll be properly rewriting my question here in a moment.00:03
ScottKNo problem.00:05
VerahsaWhen setting up bind9 as a caching DNS server, for whatever reasons it's taking -longer- than using my ISPs DNS (which pings at 350 ms on average) even though pinging the system itself is of course nigh-on instantaneous. How do I go about fixing this?00:08
Verahsa** and repeatedly takes the same much larger amount of time after repeated dig commands of the same server name.00:09
ScottKI'd start by looking in /var/log/syslog and seeing if there are apparent large delays or errors from named (the bind daemon)00:10
ScottKAlso you could pastebin  /etc/bind/named.conf.options so we could have a look at it.00:11
VerahsaScottK: define "pastebin" please? :)00:12
ScottK!pastebin00:13

KurtKrautVerahsa, how are you measuring the speed took by your cache versus your ISP's DNS server?00:16
Verahsaresponse of dig -x 127.0.0.100:16
Verahsaand then the response of dig google.com a few times00:17
Verahsapasted on pastebin, and I'm not seeing any kind of oddities in /var/log/syslog00:17
dokoRoAkSoAx: still there?00:18
Verahsa* /etc/bind/named.conf.options specifically00:18
Verahsa(paste # 500026 which i assume is needed)00:18
dokoRoAkSoAx: just the question, if it's intended that hearbeat is demoted to universe?00:18
MattTheComputerGhow do i start the xubuntu gui after i installed it00:19
MattTheComputerGwhat is the command00:19
ScottKVerahsa: Just copy/paste the fill link to your paste.00:19
ScottKMattTheComputerG: That's a question for #xubuntu.00:19
Verahsahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/500026/00:19
ScottKVerahsa: I'd look into disabling IPv6 resolution.00:20
ScottK(I can't tell you exactly how to do that, but I predict Google will know)00:21
RoAkSoAxdoko: well for maverick we don't actually need it in main because we couldn't get the other packages into main (such as cluster-glue and pacemaker)00:24
RoAkSoAxthat needed heartbeat as a dependency00:25
dokoRoAkSoAx: but it is planned for natty?00:25
RoAkSoAxdoko: yes, for natty we should have everything in main00:26
RoAkSoAxand hopefully by early stages of the cycle00:26
dokoRoAkSoAx: ok, will seed it, and open a task for heartbeat to remove it from the seeds (in 527142)00:27
RoAkSoAxdoko: for natty you mean?00:29
dokoRoAkSoAx: it doesn't make sense to demote it now, if you'll readd it in some weeks00:29
RoAkSoAxdoko: ok , will do then. Thanks for letting me know :)00:30
dokoRoAkSoAx: is there an extra server seed besides supported-server?00:30
RoAkSoAxdoko: huh? :)00:31
dokoRoAkSoAx: because it's emptu00:32
dokoy00:32
RoAkSoAxdoko: I don't know actually00:32
RoAkSoAxdoko: I think mathiaz was the one working on the seeds00:34
dokoRoAkSoAx: ok, see #527142, added to supported-misc-servers00:36
RoAkSoAxdoko: ok thanks :)00:37

MTecknologyI tried to upgrade an openvz system from 10.04 to 10.1001:08

MTecknologyAny ideas how I can resolve that?01:09

joschiMTecknology: either use the crontab files in /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,monthly,d} or create the user specific crontab file (e. g. export it with `crontab -l > /path/to/file` and do your modifications) and import it (`crontab /path/to/file`)07:13

Callum__ooohkay, so I have SMTP AUTH enabled in Postfix's settings but its not actually enabled according to telnet, and when Thunderbird tries to connect to the serving using a user name and password it doesn't work... I'm using Webmin to configure Postfix, any ideas?07:19
Callum__server*07:21
ScottKCallum__: Don't use webmin to configure postfix.07:24
ScottKI've seen it screw up Postfix configs before.07:24
Callum__heh07:24
ScottKIf you look at the server guide (see /topic) it's got detailed information on how to set up smtp auth for Postfix on Ubuntu.07:25
Callum__okay, well I have used the server guide and everything seems to be correctly configured, but it still won't work08:04

MalkavianManiacis their any form of caching server for samba?22:34
MalkavianManiaci have about 700gigs of movies on my desktop machine, and i like to turn my desktop off at night, and i cant do this while somebody is watching a movie on the media center22:35
MalkavianManiacso is there any caching program that will act as a relay to my desktops shares, but when a file is requested, load it tempoarily onto my server22:36
qman__not that I'm aware of, the system is designed from the perspective that your servers will be on 24/722:36
MalkavianManiacyeah, well my server is22:36
MalkavianManiacmy desktop isnt22:36
qman__yes, but your desktop is performing the server role here22:37
MalkavianManiacmy srever being a dualcore athlon, and my desktop being a quadcore phenom22:37
qman__the 'right' way is to put the movies on the server22:37
MalkavianManiaci really wish i could do that22:37
MalkavianManiacbut im not gonna shift my terabyte hard drives from my desktop to my server22:38
qman__entirely up to you22:39
qman__but a server can't serve something it doesn't have22:39
qman__it's a matter of design choice22:39
qman__the software you envision is unlikely to exist because it would consume an absurd amount of bandwidth just for one client, and has no other practical use22:41
qman__the best solution is to have the server store all the files, so that any client can get them at any time22:43
qman__it also makes clients somewhat disposable22:44
qman__you put all your effort into the server, and if a client crashes, it's no big deal, because the important files are on the server22:44
RoyKffs - if the linux  people doesn't come    up   with a decent filesystem  like zfs soon, it'll die in  a storage respective23:33
