vsd20cHey guys quick question. I'm making a ubuntu network based on an older machine. I was planning to virtualize the network, but, for the base machine should i install the server software directly or could i run virtual box off of puppy linux what seems like the best way to go?00:14
ScottKWould it surprise you to find that people here might recommend running Ubuntu as the base distro?00:15
vsd20cnot really00:16
vsd20cbut just curious as to if i was virtualizing00:16
vsd20cbut that works thanks00:16

njbairCan I configure Server with a root account and get rid of sudo, or will that break stuff?00:53
Jeeves_njbair: That will not break stuff00:59
Jeeves_So, yes you can!00:59

rneeseis php5 =5.3 ?03:12
rneesewhat ver of php is in the pkgs now03:12
rneeseI need php503:13
rneesereally 5.3 and 5.3 fpm03:13
sanduz2yes it is 5.3.303:17
rneeseI dont fins fpm03:18
rneesewhy does php5 install apache03:18
rneeseI only want phpe and some modules03:19
rneeseusing nginx and not apache03:19
rneeseits wrong to force apache on a install03:19
rneeseis there a way to only install php5 without apache03:19
sanduz2i agree, i dont like that either03:20
rneeseis there no way to reject parts and just get what you need03:21
sanduz2i dont think mine installed apache but i did see it installed some apache files03:21
rneeseThe following extra packages will be installed:03:21
rneese  apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils apache2.2-bin apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-php5 libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 libaprutil1-ldap libcap2 php5-common03:21
rneese  ssl-cert03:21
rneesethats just wrong03:21
sanduz2yea that sucks.id like to remove all that extra crap too03:22
rneeseyeah03:22
rneesewho are the pkg devs03:22
rneeseit needs to be delt with03:23
sanduz2try in #ubuntu-dev03:23
rneeseis there a plan to upgrade php to 5.3.3 on ubuntu-server 10.0403:34
micahgrneese: a full version upgrade generally doesn't happen after release03:35
maxbrneese: If you don't want apache, don't complain, just don't install it03:35
rneesewemaxb the issue is php should be its own pkg and not force apache with it03:37
maxbIt is.03:37
rneesethen the meta php5 pkg03:37
maxbAnd php5-fpm is available in Ubuntu 10.1003:38
micahgrneese: the meta package is for people that just want the defaults, if you want something else, you need to install the appropriate package from the dependencies first (php5-cgi | php5-fpm) and then install php5 or just install php5-common afterwards03:39
rneesei dont find php5-fpm for 10.0403:39
micahgthere will always be defaults03:39
sanduz2whats the difference between php5-cgi and php5-fpm?03:39
micahgrneese: we already said it's not in 10.0403:39
sanduz2i read one uses fast-cgi one uses regular cgi, which is most desirable?03:40
rneeseis there a nginx-devel03:42
rneesethis is a old ver of nginx03:42
sanduz2add the ppa if they have one03:42
micahgrneese: I think MTecknology is familiar with nginx03:42

MTecknologyhttp://wiki.nginx.org/Install03:43
MTecknologythere's a PPA for the latest stable and dev03:43

rneesenot finding the ppa03:44
MTecknologyi just gave you a link that gives you the ppa03:44
rneeseok03:46
MTecknologyrneese: what you said about php.. php-apc depends on some apache pieces and I think a couple other parts of that meta package do too - but php5-fpm and php5-cgi and php5-cli don't03:46
MTecknologyI haven't figured out why the apache deps yet03:46

rneeseI am and its nothing like we do on bsd . I am doing this on ubuntu virtual box for a friend03:58
rneeseand this is just not what I would expect03:59
MTecknologybsd guys roll their own package same as anything else03:59
MTecknologymost distros have these pitfalls in them03:59

MTecknologyhere's the thing.....04:02
MTecknologyif you don't like it04:02
MTecknologyfile a bug04:02
MTecknologybugs.launchpad.net/nginx04:02
|rt|rneese: I think that bsd's have a bit more consistency compared to Linux distro's but different isn't always wrong04:02
twbRight!  The maintainers can't ignore your bug, or claim that it's a feature, if you don't report it!04:03
MTecknology:P04:04
|rt|rneese: the way that Debian and it's derivatives setup their apache config is way different than redhat and it's derivatives....although in that case I think that the redhat way is wrong :)04:04
|rt|j/k it's just different but I do prefer the way that debian and it's derivatives approach it04:05
MTecknology|rt|: speaking of which... I really need to chat with the debian nginx maintainer sometime about marging the changes in the ppa..04:05
MTecknologymerging*04:05
rneeseok04:08
rneesei have spawn-fcgi installed but not finding the startup script04:09
MTecknologyJust use php-cgi and write your own inti script... or copy/paste from the nginx wiki04:11
MTecknologythe cool new thing is php-fpm04:11
MTecknologythats in the nginx repos04:11

MTecknologydid you use a socket instead of a port for the php connection?04:25
MTecknologythat tends to make things much cleaner and easier to work with - especially when you get into really funky and weird setups like i have04:26

tgwoollardGood morning all. I am trying to setup NIC Bonding in Ubuntu 10.04. In every previous release of Ubuntu i have sucesfully managed to do this by following the instruction in the following guide http://www.howtoforge.com/network_bonding_ubuntu_6.10. Things seem to be slightly different in 10.04 and i am yet to sucesfully manage to bond eth0 and eth1. Well i kind of got it working, but it fails on each subsequent restart. Anyway long story short, i07:51

jussi:(09:59
[Ben]I've looking for a solution, the only valuable thing learned is that it needs cciss to work09:59
[Ben]it works on 32bits, but failed on 64bits ...09:59
_rubenthat'd be rather odd10:00
[Ben]I was looking everywhere for 64 bits drivers, but it seems only Red Hat and Suse are able to handle this in 64bits (are they ?)10:00
[Ben]I have two version of Ubuntu 10.04, 32 and 64bits, the 32 bits shows me the disks, and the 64bits just failed ...10:01
[Ben]I tried a debian 5.0.6, too (in 64bits) with the same results10:01
jpds[Ben]: You can't "modprobe cciss" ?10:03
[Ben]It's when the install is asking me to set the partitions, I can't do a modprobe at this time, can I ?10:05
jpdsPerhaps try moving to another tty?10:06
[Ben]I'll try this right now. I saw this thing, too : http://cciss.sourceforge.net/10:06
jpdsLast sentence of the first paragraph.10:07
[Ben]Yes, I can read :p. But still, it doesn't work as advertised in 64bits mode.10:09
[Ben]I'll try a modprobe (no ssh yet, so I have to go downstairs in the server room, brb)10:09

tgwoollardGood morning all. I am unsucesfully tyring to setup NIC Bonding in Ubuntu 10.04. I managed this with ease in prior releases.

Aisonivoks, no, just /etc/ldap/slapd.d/11:19
Aisonthere's my config11:19
ivokstgwoollard: that's probably cause of upstart11:19
ivoksAison: do you have some custom files there?11:20

Aisonfor several weeks, I changed the motherboard / cpu in one of my servers12:32
Aisonits a 64bit cpu now, but the system of course is still running on 32bit12:34
Aisonis there a way to change to 64bit? eg. install a new harddrive, install new ubuntu and the copy somehow the whole configuration and install the same packages?12:35
Aisonbrb12:41
=== _Techie_ is now known as _TechAway_
[Ben]_it's really complicated due to the facts that all the drivers are written in 64bits instead of 32bits12:44
[Ben]_so your software and /home, etc can be "imported", sure12:44
[Ben]_but for packages and drivers, it's a different thing, in my opinion (depending on the software)12:44
xxfogHi guys, I got a question. I installed ubuntu server edition some days ago and configured a softwareraid 1 on 2x 1TB hdd drives - I had to set the partitions on both HDDs when installing software raid 1 - now one of the HDD crashes and I want to install a new HDD (also a hdd from another manufacturer) as second drive again, but how do have to install it? Will the sync-prozess start itself or...12:50
xxfog...will i have to start it manually? do I have to set the partions before the installation of the hdd by hand?12:50
xxfogOr will raid set the new partitions itsself?12:51
qman__xxfog, you need to create a partition on the drive the same size as your other one, of type linux raid autodetect, then use mdadm to add it to your array13:00
qman__it will then rebuild itself13:01
qman__xxfog, tutorial here, start at number 4: http://www.howtoforge.com/replacing_hard_disks_in_a_raid1_array13:03
qman__skipping the bits about md1, if you only have one raid13:03
ivoks[Ben]_: it should work with lucid13:05
daffy_dowdenHi all, can anyone tell me how I'd locate my php install location on a server? I've tried locate php, and trawled through all that, and also whereis php, but nothing appears13:12
ivoksdaffy_dowden: you are new to linux?13:12
daffy_dowdenish13:12
daffy_dowdenI thought it'd be in /etc13:13
qman__only configuration files go in /etc13:13
ivoksyou do know how programs are installed on linux? there's no single directory13:13
daffy_dowdenI'm aware of that13:13
daffy_dowdenSo how can I find the executable?13:13
ivoksso, what exactly are you looking for? executable?13:13
ivokswhich php13:13
qman__which php13:13
daffy_dowdenwhich doesn't return anything, as mentioned13:14
ivoksthen you didn't install php CLI executable13:14
ivoksinstall php-cli or php5-cli package13:14
daffy_dowdenok, so how are the php sites on the server being run?13:14
daffy_dowdenthat's what I don't get13:14
qman__through mod_php13:15
ivoksapache's mod_php13:15
jumbersThey run though an apache module13:15
daffy_dowdenright, ok13:15
pmatulismaybe he should tell us why he's "looking for php"13:15
daffy_dowdenand that can't be run directly?13:15
jumbersAre you trying to execute a PHP file via the terminal?13:15
daffy_dowdenyes13:15
jumbersThen you need php-cli13:15
qman__then you need php5-cli13:15
jumbersOr that13:15
daffy_dowdencheers13:15
ivoksthen you need php-cli :)13:15
pmatulisthen you need php-cli13:15
ivoksyou might want to consider php5-clie13:16
ivokscli13:16
ivoks:)13:16
pmatulisnext!13:16
daffy_dowdenlol13:16
jumbersI don't even see php-cli available in my aptitude, I think the only package left is php5-cli13:16
daffy_dowdenIf i install php5-cli will apache still use mod_php then?13:17
jumbersYes13:17
daffy_dowdengood13:17
jumbersIt's just another method of using php13:17
daffy_dowdenout of curiosity, could you force it to use another method?13:18
jumbersThere's php-cgi I believe13:18
daffy_dowdenWould that run as a daemon?13:19
daffy_dowdenLike if I were hosting say a python site with fastcgi and nginx?13:19
jumbersI don't know, you'd have to ask somebody that has experience with php-cgi13:19
daffy_dowdenfair enough. Thanks for the help13:20
ivoksthere's fastcgi13:21
ivoksand fcgid13:22
daffy_dowdenand you can use those with php5 like you would with say python or ruby13:22
daffy_dowden?13:23
ivoksyes13:24
ivoksit's better for performance and server13:25
ivoksbut it lacks some features13:25
daffy_dowdenahh cool13:25
ivoksyou can't use .htaccess for example13:25
daffy_dowdenright13:25
ivoks(with php values)13:25
daffy_dowdenthat makes sense13:25
daffy_dowdenDo you know why it's better for performance vs mod_php?13:26
ivokscause apache doesn't start with php module every time someone vistis your website13:26
daffy_dowdenI see, thanks13:27
jumbersIs there a way to disable SSH password authentication for a specific user? I want to switch my user account over to public key authentication, but I have 2 other users that I don't want to affect by disabling password auth13:28
ivoksand then you don't have to use apache prefork, which is slower than apache worker13:28
pmatulisjumbers: yes13:28
jumberspmatulis: How would I go about doing so?13:29
pmatulisjumbers: man sshd_config and investigate the Match keyword13:29
daffy_dowdenwhat's the difference between prefork and worker?13:29
ivoksdaffy_dowden: prefork is used only cause of php13:29
ivoksdaffy_dowden: how many cpus do you have?13:30
daffy_dowdenon this server - 1cpu 4 cores13:30
ivoksthat's 4 cpus13:30
jumberspmatulis: Thanks13:30
ivoksworker scales better than prefork13:30
ivoksprefork is not threaded (cause php doesn't support it)13:31
xxfogqman__: there are 3 partitions but i don`t know there size for sure. so i should better control the working harddrive and add same partitions on the new drive right?13:31
ivokswhile worker is threaded and therefor scales much better13:31
daffy_dowdenso say a site I had on this machine were to become incredibly popular, it'd be better to use fastcgi to get the benefits of the multiple cores?13:32
qman__xxfog, the command given on that tutorial will copy the partition scheme from the working drive to the new one13:32
ivoksdaffy_dowden: yes13:32
ivoksdaffy_dowden: and varnish13:32
daffy_dowdenis that similar to memcached?13:32
ivoksno, varnish is reverse proxy13:33
daffy_dowdenah ok13:33
ivokswith varnish and static content, your server will be able to provide, almost, unlimited connections13:33
daffy_dowdenright13:33

sorenjdstrand: Create a 5G disk image. Pass it to vmbuilder with the --raw arg.13:44
sorenjdstrand: It basically just tells vmbuilder to use that file (or device) instead of creating a new one.13:44
jdstrandsoren: right. I thought I did that in some iteration of the patch before I modified libvirtxml_fsimage.tmpl and saw qcow2 pop in there (ie, it used libvirtxml.tmpl13:45

david506ivoks : thanks14:05
ivoksstarting pacemaker :/14:06
toshkoas I understood the "virtualdomain" resource of pacemaker tries to start/monitor/stop the libvirt-bin "init" script, which is in fact converted to upstart job in ubuntu 10.0414:08
ivoksvirtualdomain? hm... i don't think so14:08
ivokslet me check14:08
toshkoas i see there is no support for upstart jobs (only for LSB/OCF) scripts in the pacemaker14:09

david506I notice that Ubuntu 10.04 does not come with IPTables enabled with rules by default, I was surprised by this decision as IPTables adds an important layer of security. Is there a Wiki article discussing not activating IPTables by default in detail ? THanks14:11
jpdsdavid506: Erm, some people would rather choose which firewall software they'd like to use instead?14:12
jpdsdavid506: ie, Shorewall, ufw, ...14:12

david506New question, I have 6 servers. 1 public net Squid reverse proxy, 2 private net web servers ( feed squid ), 2 private net database servers ( feed web server ) and 1 webmail/SMTP/POP3/IMAP server. Should the mail server be public or private? If it's private, should I use the squid machine with iptables to forward appropriate ports using NAT MASQUERADING ?14:15
ewookufw might be nice on desktops.. but running it on a server causes (at least for me ) a real mess rule-wise.14:15
toshkowell it's running when i start it14:15
jdstranddavid506: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/FAQ#UFW14:15
jdstrandewook: how so?14:16
david506thanks jdstrand14:16
toshkobut isn't the idea the resource to start it on the second machine when the first falls down14:16
ewookjdstrand: the rules thats generated via ufw isn't how I would do them myself :)14:16
ivokstoshko: it is, but VirtualDomain RA starts and stops VMs, not the libvirt14:16
david506the text under UFW answers my original question about not enable iptables by default. It makes sense.14:17
jdstrandewook: can you elaborate?14:17
ewookjdstrand: also, the order and the really... almost stupid chain-layout isn't something I like either.14:17
ivoksjdstrand: :)14:17
pmatulisouch14:17
ivoksjdstrand: relax...14:17
ivoksjdstrand: don't swear14:17
jdstrandewook: what order? you can change the order with 'insert'14:17
toshkoivoks: thanks, then i missunderstood14:17
david506I was told that I needed a firewall anyway as there are many IP based protocols that don't rely on open ports14:18
ivokstoshko: upstart plugin was developed for pacemaker14:18
toshkoivoks: so what is the script VirtualDomain monitors?14:18
ewookjdstrand: sure I can. but it's still a mess how ever you choose to see it.14:18
ivokstoshko: i just can't find it :)14:18
ivokstoshko: it monitors VM14:18
jdstrandewook: you are of course free to not use ufw. if you aren't going to provide useful comments, it cannot be improved14:19
david506I'll be back in twenty minutes14:19
ewookjdstrand: I will provide useful comments when I am able and have time for it. Just a penny regarding using ufw and other "smart" wrappers for iptables.14:20
toshkoivoks: well if it does not monitor the "libvirt-bin" script, then i shouldn't need upstart job resource14:20
toshkoivoks: how does it monitor the VMs?14:21
ivokstoshko: that's right14:21
ivokstoshko: look at the RA, it's a shell script14:21
toshkoivoks: ok thanks very much :-). Will do!14:22

So far I did sudo chgrp %groupname% %foldername%, sudo chown %username% %foldername%, and finally sudo chmod 770 %foldername% the problem is that the permissions don't carry over to the subfolders. how can I change the subfolder access? couldn't find much on it but I may not be searching for the right thing online.15:34

erimar77window's doesn't have md5sum installed, if you can run it on a linux box, the command is md5sum <filename> then it'll generate a number for you17:07

digitolxis there a recomended place to download newer packages from for lucid?17:45
alcyivoks: cool.17:46
alcyivoks: but is that a work around, or a std. way of manipulating such system variables ?17:48
qman__digitolx, the backports repository is best, a PPA second best, and manually installing the way I explained would be third best17:48
ablertis there a public PPA or other repo that contains a more up to date version of the ec2 api tools?17:50
RoyKcan someone please tell me wtf console-kit-daemon is and how I can disable that?17:50
ivoksalcy: standard way is /etc/syslog.conf17:50
ivoksbah17:50
ivoks /etc/sysctl.conf17:50
ivoksalcy: ^^17:50
RoyKalcy: set some.var = something in /etc/sysctl.conf and run sysctl -p17:51
alcyivoks: or rather, why doesn't a direct sudo work, where as piping the value to tee works ? ...yeah I could've changed sysctl but still, it would be nice to know this17:51
qman__RoyK, IIRC, that's what was causing a memory leak for me in jaunty, I removed the package it was a part of and it solved the problem17:51
qman__with no other noticeable effects17:52
ivoksalcy: cause you are piping as user17:52
RoyKqman__: it still leaks in maverick17:52
ivoksalcy: and tee is a program which you run as root17:52
digitolxqman, understood.. if the first 2 are not available for cups 1.44 is there a recommended place to get a deb.. or can you use dpkg to install src ? sorry for the qustions I'm just trying to get this right in my head17:52
qman__digitolx, you should get the deb from the ubuntu packages site, under maverick17:52
alcyivoks: ah cool ! thanks :)17:52
qman__it may depend on other maverick packages17:52
digitolxqman: thank you very much17:53
alcyRoyK: thanks for the tip.17:53
qman__but at least that way you don't have to worry about packages outside of that dependency chain17:53
digitolxright on,, I was debating on enabling maverick then disabling once I updated the cups packages .. being that there are more than one package depending .. ie libcups2-dev,, cups-bsd, cups-client.. ect...17:56
qman__that's a very bad idea, because once apt-get is aware of all the new versions, you will have dependency hell17:56
qman__just do it manually17:57
SpamapSYou can also rebuild it.. which would be awesome if you did so, and then filed a backport request if it worked without changing the source. ;)17:57
digitolxwill do,,, since that is the case should I get all the packages that are installed now affiliated with cups or just the main cups1.4.417:58
qman__well, you want to replace as few packages as is necessary17:58
qman__so I would download the main cups, and attempt to install it17:59
qman__then find what it complains about, and attempt to install those17:59

lauany idea ?18:36

qman__jauntypaperclip, not for basic samba file sharing18:37
qman__does your share in smb.conf have any allowusers statements?18:38

jauntypaperclipqman__: ; add group script = /usr/sbin/addgroup --force-badname %g ?? it's still commented...18:40
qman__jauntypaperclip, to add a user to a group, use `sudo adduser username groupname`18:41

qman__you have "guest ok = yes"18:48
qman__change it to no18:48

qman__and subsequently fail to access any of the files18:49
qman__m1r1, do the two computers you tried to install on have the same type of disk controller?18:50
jauntypaperclipqman__: gotcha. though I entered the credentials. I was able to validate that the user can see their folder with permissions set so that only they may see it and not see my folder for instance. I confirmed that it worked so I don't think it's credentials18:50
m1r1qman, you mean ide/sata ?18:50
qman__m1r1, no, I mean the same brand and model18:51
qman__or, if they're using the same exact hard drive18:51
m1r1qman__: i dont know :(18:51
m1r1hardware is diferent18:51
qman__what I'm getting at is, a failing disk or an issue with a particular type of disk controller might be the problem18:52
jauntypaperclipqman__ is the man!18:52
qman__but if they're not the same disk, and they're not the same type of controller, that's not it18:52
m1r1qman__: the first one was older PC , core2duo , this one is quad 8200 (brand new from store)18:53
qman__m1r1, what chipset does each use?18:54
m1r1for older one i dont know, sent it back, for new one i would need to look18:54
qman__also, how much time did you give it at 47%?18:57
qman__and how big is/are your hard drive(s)?18:57
jauntypaperclipqman__: the guest thing worked. you are in fact... the man!18:59
qman__glad to hear it18:59
m1r1qman__: hdd is 1tb , when it comes to 47% there is no activity on PC at all, no matter 1h or 15min, just halts19:01
m1r1i went to bios and set port 1-4 AHCI (was on IDE), but still same result19:02

guntbertmartin___: yes, webmin is no longer supported (for a long time now) - but I was very dissatisfied with ebox, I removed it as soon as I saw how it handled the system configuration21:17
guntbertmartin___: I cannot give real advice here - just my own experience shows that ebox seem in no way to be a tool like webmin21:18
martin___tbh if it works and doesn't create security issues then I'm happy :guntbert21:18
guntbertmartin___: the problem for me was that you seem to be completely sold to that system once you start using it - I didn't see a way back - with webmin it is enough to not use it or unistall it and the system will behave exactly the same21:20
