claydcould error in /etc/vsftpd.conf cause a problem?00:01
pmatulisclayd: prepend your service commands with 'strace' to see what's happening00:04
pmatulis(strace sudo service...)00:04
claydha ha.  thanks i was so close00:05
NginUScan someone help me get a second bond device to come up on ubuntu 10.10?00:05
claydoh great.  i am guessing i need to install strace first?00:05
claydpm i think we are onto something  :)00:09
claydwell dang :(00:14
claydi hate when good theads in a forum get taken ove by wording flame wars and the answers are never found.  /end rant00:19
NginUSdoes anyone know which kernel includes support for ixgbe intel 82598EB 10GB ethernet?00:29
claydcan someone help explain symbolic links?  so vsftpd is linked to a different file.  so when i try and open it to read i get the file it is pointed at.  is vsftpd an actual file or just a link?00:32
pmatulisNginUS: do you have a pci id for that?00:33
NginUSpmatulis : yes, it's there00:34
pmatulisNginUS: where?00:36
NginUSpmatulis: : 01:00.0 & 01:00.100:36
pmatulisNginUS: that's not it00:38
pmatulisNginUS: anyway, are you saying that the current stable release does not support this h/w?00:38
NginUSpmatulis: : There's also a 'DISABLED' label on it in lshw's output. That says the bus info is pci@0000:01:00.0 & pci@0000:01:00.100:39
NginUSpmatulis: Apparently. It doesn't come up when configured alone or bonded.00:40
NginUSpmatulis: correction- it's listed when I do modprobe -l ixgbe....00:43
NginUS...?00:43
NginUSIt's loaded, too...00:44
claydhow important is dbus?  i found a site that says to install it for the vsftpd issue but no explanation why or if it works00:46
NginUSclayd: you can always purge it after if it doesnt help00:51
claydya it didnt help  :)00:51

twbsoren: ping.  I remember you saying that lucid as a Xen Dom0 was basically not an option.  Is that also the case for lucid as an OpenVZ HN?01:21
PatrickdkHN?01:28
twb"hardware node"01:30
twbThe openvz equivalent of dom001:30
twbrandom forum post suggests the official spiel is that LXC replaces OpenVZ.01:31
twbhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContainersSpec01:32
zoopstertwb: I'm fairly certain that if you use openvz's kernel it could.  There is no supported Dom0 kernel in Ubuntu. LXC is the new container spec baked into the kernel. It's in Lucid as a "tech preview", but a lot of tools are missing. Several blueprints for UDS-N are proposed to address it02:26
twbOK, so basically Ubuntu has dropped *its* support for OpenVZ, suggesting I move to LXC (even though it isn't ready yet).02:27
zoopsterthe openvz kernel was dropped a while back due to lack of upstream support if I recall correctly02:28
twbSo my options are to either roll my own OpenVZ kernel, put up with missing features in LXC, move my jails to KVM and take the performance hit, or stick with hardy.02:28
twbHm, OK.02:28
zoopstersounds right02:28
Patrickdkor, move to esx like me02:30
twbI don't really want to migrate to a proprietary solution.02:31
* Patrickdk wonders what solutions above isn't proprietary02:31
Patrickdkmaybe kvm02:31
twbUh, all of them?02:31
twbVirtuozzo is proprietary; OpenVZ isn't.02:32
zoopsteresx has container technology?02:34
twbzoopster: no, it's more like Xen.  AIUI esxi is a hypervisor and a linux-based dom002:34
zoopsterdidn't think so02:35

soren00:21 < twb> soren: ping.  I remember you saying that lucid as a Xen Dom0 was basically not an option.  Is that also the case for lucid as an OpenVZ HN?08:30
sorenI'm assuming HN is the equivalent of a dom0.08:30
twbsoren: yep, and OK.08:30
twbFurther down you can see me working it out on my own08:30
sorentwb: Lucid does LXC just fine, though.08:30
sorentwb: Ah, I just looked at stuff that mentioned my name.08:31
sorenI rarely actually catch up on IRC in the morning (I've got 135 windows open right now... I woulnd't be done catching up until late in the afternoon), but I do read stuff that irssi has highlighted overnight.08:31
twbNo worries08:32
twbI only pestered you specifically because I know you have a clue, and I know you were talking about Xen and UEC08:32
sorenSure, np.08:32
twbBasically my position is that out of KVM and LXC, it's safer for me to pick KVM because AFAICT nobody is really using LXC yet08:39
twbAt least as far as paying customers go -- my own scratch boxes I'm happy to try new things on08:39
twbsoren: are you gonna give me the LXC salespitch? :-)  AFAICT nobody is using it yet.08:53
sorenSorry, remember those 135 windows, I mentioned? They basically mean that I don't notice stuff unless you mention my name :)08:54
sorenHence my long response time :)08:55
sorenSo, out of kvm and lxc, I'm also much more in the kvm camp.08:55
sorenThey serve different purposes, though.08:55
sorenJust like KVM and OpenVZ serve different purposes.08:55
soren...and if you're looking to serve the purposes that OpenVZ does, and you can't use OpenVZ for whatever reason, LXC is what you want to look at.08:56
sorentwb: ^08:56
twbsoren: hence the "soren:" at the end :-)08:57
sorentwb: :)08:57
twbsoren: and yeah, eventually I'd like to use LXC for lts-in-lts, and kvm only for random stupid things like windows and sco VMs08:58
sorenBut sure, if you have the hardware for KVM and your workload is suitable for KVM, *definitely* go with KVM.08:58
twbsoren: fortunately for this customer I'm in a position to dictate VT-x CPUs.08:58
sorenI deal with software that enables random people to run random OS's. A container is of very, very little use to me.08:58
sorenBoth in terms of utility, but also in terms of security.08:59
twbsoren: for me, I want containers so that webdev idiots can each have their happy little world of specific versions of PHP or whatever inside their jail, and when their crappy PHP code gets compromised, it still doesn't affect me or the other idiot webdevs08:59
sorenIf I'm just running my own stuff, it's probably fine, but I really don't feel comfortable having random people running stuff in my kernel.08:59

Jeeves_I guess you should be looking for vmware/netapp documentation12:27

matt605I haven't found any Ubuntu specific docs on netapp/vmware side unfortunately12:31
Jeeves_matt605: That's not up to Ubuntu. You should look for bestpractises for Vmware ESX and Netapp12:31

kirklandhallyn: ;-)16:12
kirklandhallyn: it's a classic16:12
ScottKSirMeaky: sudo do-release-upgrade16:13
SirMeakyScottk: So that wont go any higher than 9.10?16:13
ScottKSirMeaky: Not from 9.04.16:14
SirMeakyScotk: Awesome, thanks :)16:14
SirMeakyScottk: do-released-upgrade not found apparently16:15
SirMeakyrelease* sorry16:15
ScottKSirMeaky: IIRC you'll want sudo apt-get install update-manager-core16:15
SirMeakyScottk:  Okay then :)16:16
SirMeakyScottk: That worked great, thanks :)16:17

jauntypaperclipHello hello. I have a question about group permissions. I wasn't able to find the right thing on the net (although I'm new so I might have missed it). Right now I set up 2 users and 1 group in my samba file server. I set up a sub-folder for one of the groups. Whenever user 1 creates or modifies a file, I get access denied eventhough we are part of the same group. How would I as user 2 see the file that user 1 saved in m17:57
jauntypaperclipthanks btw17:57
jauntypaperclipoh... wait... should create mask be 775 vs 770?17:59
kroimpa775 does allow other to write and change the data18:01

qman__looks like the limit setting overflowed18:50
qman__it probably has a cap below that18:50
kroimpayeah the limit is 5g, cos when i change it 6g all the POST actions fail18:51
kroimpabut i like to  know how to change the unlying limit18:51
kroimpa*underlying18:51
kroimpakinda strange though18:51
kroimpaowww18:51
kroimpasrry18:51
kroimpadidnt read ya second post18:51
kroimpail look in the php.ini file18:52
qman__the flag is probably a 32-bit number18:52
qman__and therefore can't go any higher than that18:52
kroimpaaaah that must be it18:52
qman__you'd have to modify the source18:52
kroimpaso i have to edit the source code of ubuntu?18:53
kroimpai mean apache218:53
kroimpaor should i look in the php.ini18:53
kroimpaif there might be another limit defined18:53
qman__no, that limit cannot go higher without modifying the source code of PHP18:54
qman__and compiling it18:54
kroimpadamn:P18:54
kroimpaim kinda new18:54
kroimpajust using ubuntu for a week18:54
kroimpaso ill pass :P18:54
kroimpabut thanks allot for the answer:D18:55
qman__that method really isn't designed to go larger18:55
qman__if you need to upload larger files there is probably a better approach18:55
kroimpaso in the php field there are no options for uploading large 1080p movies18:55
kroimpayeah im using just a standard POST form18:55
kroimpaso i had to edit the max_post_size limit too18:56
kroimpais there another way to upload files using php that doesnt use the html POST form?18:57
kroimpacos the POST limit is the problem here i think18:58
qman__not that I'm aware of18:59
patdk-wkthe only way to upload things over http, and pass it to php is using post18:59
kroimpaaah damn19:00
qman__what I meant was, you'll probably have to implement something in java or flash or python or some other approach to manage it19:00
kroimpaahh ok il look into that19:00
qman__php was designed to render web pages, and though it extends quite nicely, 1080p video was never in the road map19:00
kroimpahahaha i figured:P19:00
patdk-wkare you using x86 or x64?19:00
kroimpax86 on an old p3:P19:01
patdk-wkthat might be the issue19:01
patdk-wkI wonder if it would *just work* on a x64 system19:01
kroimpammm19:01
patdk-wkI have only ever uploaded 300megs with php though19:01
qman__yeah, 64-bit versions might have a higher limit19:01
kroimpail set up virtual machine on my laptop installing Ubnut server x6419:01
kroimpaand ill try out19:02
kroimpabut is its a 32bit limit like u say19:02
kroimpa*if19:02
kroimpashouldnt the 5gb limit also not work19:02
kroimpacos 32bit is limited to 4 gigs right>19:02
patdk-wkthe question is if they typecasted it to 32bit, and it won't work on 64bit also, or will it? :)19:02
patdk-wkwell, the registers are19:02

guntbertkroimpa: please keep to the topic of this channel19:17
intel352hey guys, anyone here familiar enough with BTRFS to field a question on it?19:17
patdk-wkmaybe19:18
intel352ha19:18
kroimpaah ok guntbert19:18
* patdk-wk looks around for the topic, I think it ran away19:18
intel352okay, would it be possible to use BTRFS as the storage solution for a MySQL database, duplicating all writes to EXT4 on another drive?19:18
intel352since BTRFS doesn't have an fsck utility, it would be nice to keep a "safe" copy of data, but use BTRFS for it's snapshot support, backups, etc19:19
patdk-wkheh?19:20
* patdk-wk wonders how you would duplicate it on write19:20
intel3521s, finding link19:20
patdk-wkand why btrfs itself isn't safe enough19:20
patdk-wkwell, assuming it's stable19:20
intel352The B-tree file system is a “copy-on-write (COW)” check-summed file system with multi-device support and writable snapshots.19:20
patdk-wkyou don't understand what that means :)19:20
patdk-wkthat means, when you write to the drive19:20
patdk-wkif you write to the same file, in the same place19:20
patdk-wkext2/3/4 writes to the same place on the drive19:21
patdk-wkbtrfs doesn't19:21
patdk-wkit doesn't, so that it can do versioning(snapshotting)19:21
intel352k, nice19:21
intel352well, the only issue i'm seeing with BTRFS, is that it doesn't have fsck19:21
patdk-wkso once you write data to btrfs, it's never overritten (unless it runs out of empty space)19:22
intel352which means you can have your fs corrupt and not be recoverable19:22
patdk-wkIf I remember correctly19:22
patdk-wkfsck isn't needed, cause of the snapshots19:22
patdk-wkin ext, if the metadata is out of sync with the file data, your screwed19:23
patdk-wkin btrfs, it doesn't really happen19:23
intel352Btrfs does not yet have a fsck tool that can fix errors. While Btrfs is stable, it is currently possible to corrupt a filesystem irrecoverably if your machine crashes or loses power. http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg05749.html19:23
patdk-wkcause you write the data to a new location, then update the metadata for that19:23
patdk-wkso if it's corrupted, you will just see an older version, but not a corrupted version19:23
patdk-wkya, I haven't payed too much attention19:24
patdk-wkit works for me, and haven't had an issue :)19:24
patdk-wkand done some reading up on it19:24
intel352heh, check this out19:25
intel352Q: Is btrfs with 2.6.36 really rockstable and ready to use in productive environments?19:25
intel352A: No, certainly not until there's a working fsck tool -- at the moment it's rather easy to kill a btrfs by just losing power.19:25
intel352which, that is a concern. sure, have a backup power supply, but still19:25
intel352Q: I was under the impression that with atomic writes it's impossible to mess up a file system?19:27
intel352A: Yes, we're not seeing data corruption, we're correctly reporting that the transid of the data block doesn't match the transid in the parent node's pointer, which means that some writes went missing. Then we're hitting a BUG() as a result, which hangs.19:27
patdk-wkmy machines can't loose power :)19:29
intel352ha, but worst case, if power does get lost, don't want unrecoverable data corruption19:30
patdk-wkya, would be annoying19:30
ttxrobbiew: yes19:30
patdk-wkgood thing I have a 8hour ups + autoshutdown19:30
robbiewttx: ok..I can certainly approve BPs as well19:30

jauntypapercliphey folks quick question (I hope) is there any reason why someone would create a user as root? and then remove all other users from the machine from the sudoers file? someone set up a machine here and doing a sudo -i gives me a weird error but I suspect it's because something got messed up when a root user was formed. it's for a samba fileshare20:58
jauntypapercliplike as a result sudo anything from another user other than the user named root gives a sodoer error and I can't find documentation on why someone would do this21:02

Hobartzoopster -> as far as you're aware, is the kernel in the Canonical provided AMIs already tweaked to be a light Xen client? Or is it the full stock Maverick kernel?21:18

Madwillrepost from tomcat sry i'm eager for information21:39
diabolical_why does ubuntu keep every single kernel installed when it upgrades21:41
diabolical_i have about 10 of them left over what is the deal21:42
Kyle__diabolical_: you can apt-get remove them if you dont' want them.21:42
Kyle__diabolical_: It's a sensible tradeoff, since the newest is the default (with their grub setup), and it makes it easy to switch to an older one if there seems to be an issue.21:43
diabolical_well what are the pluses and minuses beside when you reboot it goes into the grub option to boot from which kernel21:43
diabolical_but every single kernel back to the first kernel with 10.0421:43
diabolical_http://pastebin.com/3WgQqbAf   have a look21:43
Kyle__diabolical_: Even if you remove all but the current one, it still goes into grub and gives yo ua few seconds before booting.21:43
* Kyle__ nods21:43
Kyle__I know.  The only reson I remove the old ones is because the ssd on my laptop is small.  Other than that I usually leave them around.21:44
diabolical_yeah i mean it is a headless unit but i have a spare monitor next to it to see if there is any boot issues21:44
* Kyle__ nods21:45
diabolical_kyle on my linux laptop it has a small hd  also it is a laptop i saved from the trash but it works for simple stuff21:45
Kyle__Eh, I got a good, but smallish ssd for mine.  Which made the upgrade to 10.10 all the sweeter.21:45

diabolical_Ok another issue. this was so long ago that i dont remember i set my server to drop all inbound packets besides local. But I can not connect to my mysql server Via anymeans with the exception of phpmyadmin, for instance heidisql, netbeans etc... tried every method I did create a user and assigned it to the local network think iptables is blocking it21:47

SpamapSdiabolical_: thats a good one. ;)21:48
diabolical_why you say that ?21:49
SpamapSnetbook with os x. Awesome.21:49
diabolical_Well i have enough Windows, Linux machines here and there are 2 Macs just not mine21:49
SpamapSAbout your inbound packet dropping.. it sounds to me like what you really want to do is allow ESTABLISHED state packets to come in, but not NEW or INVALID21:50
diabolical_SpamapS: so check the firewall logs to see exactly what it says on dropped packets ? and then open accordling ?21:50
SpamapSdiabolical_: or just iptables -L -n -v21:51
SpamapSdiabolical_: that will give you counts of matched rules21:51
diabolical_I mean I try ssh tunneling, socket etc. whatever the 5 options Every mysql gui frontend has for remote connection without luck21:51
diabolical_Ok i will look into it more.... There is so much in the rules that it over runs the screen buffer and cant even see all the rules21:53
SpamapSdiabolical_: do you have something automatically adding rules?21:54
diabolical_no21:54
SpamapSdiabolical_: then that doesn't make much sense.21:54
SpamapSunless you made hundreds of rules yourself. ;)21:55
diabolical_I will check but I don't think anything is auto added I got rid of CSF long ago21:55
Aisoncrap, somehow I can't start idmapd22:13

pimpytuxhi there22:54
pimpytuxhope someone can help me, i have 4 harddisk on my linux machine which i want to be shared and managed from my windows computer, don't know if this is the accurate channel, thanks22:55
Aisonwhat do you mean with "managed"22:56
Aisonof course you can create a fileserver with your linux machine and then let the windows client connect22:57
Black_PrinceEasiest way to share With Windows is by using Samba22:58
pimpytuxAison i meant, sorry for my english, i am swiss, i want to access datas from windows machine via the network and shortcuts to the disks physically on linux machine22:58
pimpytuxyes i have samba and smb.conf edited but this is not working22:58

Aisonpimpytux, did you already add users to samba?23:01
pimpytuxAison no guest only i suppose23:01
pimpytuxi am in local don't need users23:01
pimpytuxjust access to my files23:01
Aisonwell, to access your files, you have to create a username and password. then you can connect with your windows machine23:01
pimpytuxok this was working good yesterday, and that's why i am lost23:02
pimpytuxwithout any user account created23:02
Aisonit's easy to create a useraccount23:02
Aisonsimply take your existing one you already use23:02
Aisonthen do23:03
Aisonsmbpasswd -a yourllinuxusername23:03
Aisonthen enter the password23:03
Aisonthen you can connect with your linux username and password23:03
pimpytuxok will try this one second23:03
Black_PrinceEasiest way to share all hard drives is to add seperate user and mount all four in /home/user/hd1 /home/user/hd2 etc23:03
Aisonit's better to disable guest stuff23:04
pimpytuxso i type on a terminal : smbpasswd -a pimpy23:04
pimpytuxor sudo ?23:04
Aisonuse sudo23:04
pimpytuxok23:04
pimpytuxso i type on a terminal : sudo smbpasswd -a pimpy23:04
Aisonyes, then enter your password for sudo23:04
Aisonand then enter your password again23:04
pimpytuxAison it says this is the same pwd23:05
pimpytuxas i user the same as for ubuntu login23:05
Aisonthen your user already exists in samba23:05
pimpytuxpwd not changed23:05
pimpytuxok good but samba is having issues23:05
Aisonhere it's working very good ;)23:06
pimpytux:(23:06

Aisoneg. you can create a new link on your desktop with  \\server\MP3  and then open the link23:07
Aisonyes, or set  it to = no23:07

pimpytuxgood night23:32
SpamapSSkaag: just one?23:43
SpamapSSkaag: you'll need to assemble it into a raid volume using mdadm23:44
SpamapSSkaag: you can maybe try mdadm --examine /dev/sdX# or whatever the path to the partition is23:45
SkaagI managed to do this!! indeed with assemble23:46
SkaagI ran mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sdc323:46
Skaagthen I insisted to run it with --run23:47
Skaagnow it's accessible, excellent :)23:47
Skaagthanks23:47
