[00:03] <ScottK> Verahsa: 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] <Verahsa> I 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.
[00:05] <ScottK> No problem.
[00:08] <Verahsa> When 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?
[00:09] <Verahsa> ** and repeatedly takes the same much larger amount of time after repeated dig commands of the same server name.
[00:10] <ScottK> I'd start by looking in /var/log/syslog and seeing if there are apparent large delays or errors from named (the bind daemon)
[00:11] <ScottK> Also you could pastebin  /etc/bind/named.conf.options so we could have a look at it.
[00:12] <Verahsa> ScottK: define "pastebin" please? :)
[00:13] <ScottK> !pastebin
[00:16] <KurtKraut> Verahsa, how are you measuring the speed took by your cache versus your ISP's DNS server?
[00:16] <Verahsa> response of dig -x 127.0.0.1
[00:17] <Verahsa> and then the response of dig google.com a few times
[00:17] <Verahsa> pasted on pastebin, and I'm not seeing any kind of oddities in /var/log/syslog
[00:18] <doko> RoAkSoAx: still there?
[00:18] <Verahsa> * /etc/bind/named.conf.options specifically
[00:18] <Verahsa> (paste # 500026 which i assume is needed)
[00:18] <doko> RoAkSoAx: just the question, if it's intended that hearbeat is demoted to universe?
[00:19] <MattTheComputerG> how do i start the xubuntu gui after i installed it
[00:19] <MattTheComputerG> what is the command
[00:19] <ScottK> Verahsa: Just copy/paste the fill link to your paste.
[00:19] <ScottK> MattTheComputerG: That's a question for #xubuntu.
[00:19] <Verahsa> http://paste.ubuntu.com/500026/
[00:20] <ScottK> Verahsa: I'd look into disabling IPv6 resolution.
[00:21] <ScottK> (I can't tell you exactly how to do that, but I predict Google will know)
[00:24] <RoAkSoAx> doko: 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)
[00:25] <RoAkSoAx> that needed heartbeat as a dependency
[00:25] <doko> RoAkSoAx: but it is planned for natty?
[00:26] <RoAkSoAx> doko: yes, for natty we should have everything in main
[00:26] <RoAkSoAx> and hopefully by early stages of the cycle
[00:27] <doko> RoAkSoAx: ok, will seed it, and open a task for heartbeat to remove it from the seeds (in 527142)
[00:29] <RoAkSoAx> doko: for natty you mean?
[00:29] <doko> RoAkSoAx: it doesn't make sense to demote it now, if you'll readd it in some weeks
[00:30] <RoAkSoAx> doko: ok , will do then. Thanks for letting me know :)
[00:30] <doko> RoAkSoAx: is there an extra server seed besides supported-server?
[00:31] <RoAkSoAx> doko: huh? :)
[00:32] <doko> RoAkSoAx: because it's emptu
[00:32] <doko> y
[00:32] <RoAkSoAx> doko: I don't know actually
[00:34] <RoAkSoAx> doko: I think mathiaz was the one working on the seeds
[00:36] <doko> RoAkSoAx: ok, see #527142, added to supported-misc-servers
[00:37] <RoAkSoAx> doko: ok thanks :)
[01:08] <MTecknology> wow...
[01:08] <MTecknology> I tried to upgrade an openvz system from 10.04 to 10.10
[01:08] <MTecknology> I guess this is bad.
[01:09] <MTecknology> root@wiki2:~# dpkg --configure procps   Setting up procps (1:3.2.8-9ubuntu3) ...   start: Job failed to start   dpkg: error processing procps (--configure):    subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1   Errors were encountered while processing:   procps
[01:09] <MTecknology> Any ideas how I can resolve that?
[01:10] <MTecknology> I guess a lot of things depend on that package being set up right - but I can't set it up..
[01:11] <MTecknology> obviously I can't just purge it and try to reinstall it either
[01:13] <EvilPhoenix> is there something that replaced inetd?  or does inetd exist but is just inactive
[01:20] <MTecknology> Why does php-apc depend on apache stuff?
[01:38] <hggdh> MTecknology: start by lookin at the /var/log/apt/term.log, and find out what error was it
[01:57] <MattTheComputerG> how do i enable the internet in ubuntu server if i did not set it up durring install, please tell me how searched goodl for hours with no luck and im loosing it.....
[01:58] <MattTheComputerG> *I searched google...
[02:01] <MattTheComputerG> so dose anyone know how? the second i talked the room went dead
[02:07] <_Techie_> MattTheComputerG, is one of your interfaces setup with a gateway address and a DNS address?
[02:12] <pudgypaw> OK, I've found out something new: all my php files are being interpreted as pHTML files. can someone throw some light onto this weirdness i got w/ my default lamp stack?
[05:54] <MTecknology> can you add info to crontab from a command?
[05:54] <MTecknology> ie- not crontab -e
[07:13] <joschi> MTecknology: 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`)
[07:15] <MTecknology> joschi: thanks
[07:19] <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?
[07:21] <Callum__> server*
[07:24] <ScottK> Callum__: Don't use webmin to configure postfix.
[07:24] <ScottK> I've seen it screw up Postfix configs before.
[07:24] <Callum__> heh
[07:25] <ScottK> If you look at the server guide (see /topic) it's got detailed information on how to set up smtp auth for Postfix on Ubuntu.
[08:04] <Callum__> okay, well I have used the server guide and everything seems to be correctly configured, but it still won't work
[08:04] <Callum__> telnet EHLO <mailserver> is now saying the right things and all that...
[08:05] <Callum__> hmm, hang on

[09:45] <FusionX> i requested only 2 CDs from ubuntu but i got all the 4 CDs, thanks alot!!
[10:26] <MalkavianManiac> does a fee of $25 USD sound right to you guys, for setting up a server with dialup dhcp and forwarding packets for use as a gateway?
[10:36] <qman__> quite low, depends on who it's for though
[10:36] <qman__> I charge $35 per half hour
[10:38] <qman__> general on-site service rate
[11:09] <eljak> hello if i have a guest with IP address 216.60.75.228 and the guest its IP address in the range of 66.240.192.141 how would i configure bridging so the guest is visible on the net? thanks
[11:51] <joenslf> how can i change the hostname of ubuntu server?
[12:53] <mytc> hi there!! can any one show  me how to allow ubuntu-server (lucid)  with two Nics comunicate with the public ip address

[14:28] <imoschak> I need some help setting up networking for a vm
[14:28] <imoschak> anybody interested in helping?
[14:30] <RoyK> imoschak: I think you should as a real question about the problem for getting help
[14:31] <imoschak> Ok i've setup a bridge br0 and i'm using virt-manager to define a network device for the vm
[14:31] <imoschak> so i define br0 as the virtual network interface
[14:32] <imoschak> but the vm can't reach outside
[14:32] <imoschak> is there a guide apart from the one in ubuntu docs for networking vms
[14:32] <imoschak> ?
[14:34] <AbhiJit> hello
[14:35] <AbhiJit> when i run the file.php with this code <?php phpinfo(); ?>
[14:35] <AbhiJit> i got the proper output
[14:35] <AbhiJit> but when i try to run the file.php with this code http://paste.ubuntu.com/500319/ i am not getting anytihng
[14:35] <AbhiJit> nothing on page not ever that html msg
[14:35] <AbhiJit> anyone please help
[14:36] <leftyfb> AbhiJit: did you look in your access and/or error logs for apache?
[14:37] <AbhiJit> leftyfb, no i am noob in this. how to look that log? i dont know how to understand any error in log file
[14:39] <AbhiJit> :(
[14:40] <AbhiJit> anyone else??????
[14:41] <dvrvm> how can I make an init.d script run after NFS volumes are mounted (or why is the NFS directory not seen)? it is already on S99
[14:42] <RoyK> AbhiJit: what happens if you 'wget -qO - http://name-of-site' ?
[14:42] <RoyK> dvrvm: perhaps trying with upstart?
[14:43] <AbhiJit> RoyK, mine is loclahost. what to write in name-of-site?
[14:43] <AbhiJit> google.com?
[14:43] <AbhiJit> or mine one?
[14:43] <dvrvm> RoyK: so i have to learn this incredible mess of upstart to get my script running? i thought it was a rather trivial task :D
It works!</h1>
This is the default web page for this server.</p>
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.</p>

[14:44] <AbhiJit> RoyK, i got that in wget -q0- http://localhst
[14:44] <AbhiJit> brb
[14:45] <RoyK> !pastebin
[14:45] <RoyK> AbhiJit: that's not your php script you're testing, is it?
[14:51] <AbhiJit> m bck
[14:51] <AbhiJit> RoyK, ok wait
[14:52] <AbhiJit> RoyK, i am testing wget -qO - http://localhost//abhitest.php and getting no output for it
[14:52] <RoyK> no idea, then
[14:52] <RoyK> check the error log
[14:52] <RoyK> apache error log
[14:52] <AbhiJit> RoyK, where to check?
[14:53] <RoyK> /var/log/apache is a good place to start
[14:53] <AbhiJit> RoyK, ok
[14:55] <AbhiJit> RoyK, it says that error in this line die (“check your server connection.”);
[14:56] <AbhiJit> RoyK, anythin wrong in syntax etc?
[14:57] <RoyK> perhaps trying to ask on #php would be a good idea.....
[14:57] <AbhiJit> RoyK, ok
[15:06] <dvrvm> RoyK: does upstart really use only the /etc/event.d directory? there are like 5 scripts there...
[15:07] <dvrvm> nvm, found em
[15:12] <AbhiJit> RoyK, soleved in #php. thanks to you too!!! :) now everything is working! :)
[15:12] <RoyK> :)
[15:53] <dvrvm> hm. WHY does my upstart script ALSO not see my directory, even if i start it with "start on filesystem" and it runs perfectly fine from the command line?
[16:07] <ScottK> ttx and zul: I've just triaged Bug #646858 - I don't recall the server specific triage tag you were using, so I didn't add it.  This looks like one that needs to be addressed before release.
[16:37] <dvrvm> anyone here with expertise about network-manager vs. NFS race conditions?
[18:39] <mrmonday> I'm trying to get wireless working with my ubuntu server (I know, not my choice :3), and would like to know if there's a certain set of steps I should go through to debug it? I can pick up my network with iwlist, I can't seem to get it to actually connect though (I've followed the setup steps listed at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 under WPA-PSK with Ra Based Chipsets)
[20:02] <wieshka> hey there - how can i mirror directories with rsync ..... now only all files copied, but also, if on source file is deleted, also it deletes on backup destination
[20:03] <wieshka> -- delete ?
[20:08] <pmatulis> wieshka: i don't think rsync cam do that
[21:36] <Ad0> hey
[21:43] <Ad0> after upgrade from hardy to feisty, I get access denied when going into a folder on the computer
[21:43] <Ad0> main share root is OK
[21:43] <Ad0> but any directory under that fails
[21:44] <_ruben> feisty is older than hardy...
[21:44] <Ad0> err
[21:44] <Ad0> lucid
[21:44] <Ad0> sorry
[21:55] <Ad0> heard that samba 3.4.0 is buggy
[21:55] <Pecores_Connass> hi
[21:56] <Pecores_Connass> can u help me, after update : init: plymouth min process (1414) Killed by sevg signal
[21:56] <Ad0> ouch
[21:58] <Pecores_Connass> ?
[22:11] <Ad0> not sure
[22:13] <MalkavianManiac> how stable will 10.04 be when 10.10 is relesed... sure everybody says its stable being the LTS... but alot of people have trouble with it
[22:16] <Pecores_Connass> kernel panic - not syncing: vfs: unable to mount root fs on unknow-block(8,1)
[22:17] <amine_> MalkavianManiac, I think that it's a big mistake to qualify a new released distribution as STABLE ! NO SOFTWARE CAN BE STABLE AT FIRST RELEASE !
[22:19] <Nafallo> well, 4.10 was our first releae... :-)
[22:22] <Pecores_Connass> can u help me i can just boot on rescue mode
[22:22] <Pecores_Connass> how to reupdate
[22:22] <amine_> Nafallo,  it means that since 4.10 you didn't reach  the stability yet :P it's a shame to say that :P
[22:24] <Nafallo> amine_: well, the servers I run are just fine...
[22:26] <amine_> Nafallo, I know I am just kidding ! me too ! I have never found a high level of stability until using ubuntu !
[22:26] <Pecores_Connass> .
[22:34] <MalkavianManiac> is their any form of caching server for samba?
[22:35] <MalkavianManiac> i 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 center
[22:36] <MalkavianManiac> so 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 server
[22:36] <qman__> not that I'm aware of, the system is designed from the perspective that your servers will be on 24/7
[22:36] <MalkavianManiac> yeah, well my server is
[22:36] <MalkavianManiac> my desktop isnt
[22:37] <qman__> yes, but your desktop is performing the server role here
[22:37] <MalkavianManiac> my srever being a dualcore athlon, and my desktop being a quadcore phenom
[22:37] <qman__> the 'right' way is to put the movies on the server
[22:37] <MalkavianManiac> i really wish i could do that
[22:38] <MalkavianManiac> but im not gonna shift my terabyte hard drives from my desktop to my server
[22:39] <qman__> entirely up to you
[22:39] <qman__> but a server can't serve something it doesn't have
[22:39] <qman__> it's a matter of design choice
[22:41] <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 use
[22:43] <qman__> the best solution is to have the server store all the files, so that any client can get them at any time
[22:44] <qman__> it also makes clients somewhat disposable
[22:44] <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 server
[23:33] <RoyK> ffs - if the linux  people doesn't come    up   with a decent filesystem  like zfs soon, it'll die in  a storage respective
