[01:21] New bug: #661547 in openldap (main) "Existing patch gssapi.diff makes guess_service_principal produce garbage" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/661547 [02:25] Hi Can anyone suggest for me, I have a HP dc7100 box which seems to be fine hardware wise, e.g. mem tests pass and ubuntu desktop runs without apparent error. I want to run Ubuntu Server on a 2 TB disk. The basic problem is that the SSH sessions intermittently disconnect while the sever itself does not have any difficulty downloading its updates. Same problem noted with 10.04 and 10.10. [02:27] Repto, what do you mean by intermittently? [02:27] I mean it connects and you can do stuff for a bit, then it just freezes [02:28] Then for some reason the freeze is released and it continues again.... [02:28] Its unuseable as it is though. [02:28] I setup a mail server on it and sending stuff to it also suspends / disconnects [02:29] Odd that I can still download mega direct from the machine for updates without the problem being apparent. [02:29] does 'dmesg' say anything about the network status? [02:29] ok will fire up again [02:31] Repto: these symptoms sound like you may have an IP address conflict on your network [02:32] if the NIC is having intermitten issues, they might get mentioned in dmesg... other than that... are you sure the physical network connection is good? [02:46] OK running again. [ 10.516229] tg3: eth0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. [ 10.516233] tg3: eth0: Flow control is on for TX and on for RX. [ 10.516387] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready [ 20.536007] eth0: no IPv6 routers present [02:46] that's fine then... [02:47] I was just looking for messages about the NIC experiencing errors of some sort. [02:47] Ping works from the box itself fine, not aware of any IP conflicts but will check some more [02:49] Can ping from the router without conflict, DHCP leases and ARP tables on the router appear good. [02:50] (router is pfsense.) [02:50] Currently running top in PuTTy to see if I can catch it again... [02:50] is the cat5 cable fine? [02:51] Have already swapped different cables. [02:52] Also the updates would likely fail if a cable problem. [02:52] wonder if it's just killing idle connections? [02:52] K its just done it again now. [02:53] check dmesg? how long does it drop out for? [02:53] It might have been triggered by a faulty command " man toptop -d0.5" [02:53] dmesg on the box is same [02:54] I don't see how a faulty command would cause a problem with the network connection [02:54] At a guess 10 seconds this time, I just logged back in again [02:54] Well me neither.... [02:54] maybe it had gone down before it [02:55] Odd as the box is not doing anything, CPU sitting <2% typ [02:56] Running "top -d0.5" to get see when it next goes down [02:57] Hello, I have an Atheros wifi card that was not detected in the setup. How can I install this? [02:58] Actually pings prob better, running ping from puTTy and the main terminal [03:03] K its done it again pinging. [03:03] 180 seconds [03:04] And can login again! [03:04] Repto, what if you ping it from another system? [03:04] I wonder if it's just ssh? [03:05] Terminal still pinging router fine [03:05] The disconnect seems to affect SSH and IMAP [03:08] hmm I have a fresh install of ubuntu server with no wifi sofware for my card. I configured apt to use CD as a source as well. What is my best option for getting madwifi? [03:08] Weird OK pinging has stopped from ssh and terminal this time, pings from outside on the LAN in still fine!!!! [03:09] why is a server running on wifi? [03:09] Repto, that's interesting. [03:10] Odd Why pings in but not out? [03:11] Hmmm terminal pings stopped on icmp_seq=15 and resumed on =64 = 59 sec break - or maybe a min? [03:12] Again terminal and putty stopped pinging out, pings in continue. [03:12] As Ubuntu desktop ran fro awhile without issue I tend to think the hardware is ok [03:12] its a local fileserver [03:13] icmp_seq stopped after 85 and resumed on 131 [03:13] = ~ 56 sec break [03:14] 206 stopped and resumed at 252 [03:14] ~ 48 sec break. [03:18] Damn it seems I do have an Ip conflict. [03:19] clear it up and see if the problems go away [03:20] LOL no encouragement needed! [03:20] haha [03:22] Yeh please be gentle! [03:22] Adman65, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=38972 [03:23] but I would suggest a wired connection. [03:24] yeh me too. [03:24] Wifi <> reliable connection! [03:28] pmatulis: Well diagnosed. Can you explain to me why it goes down and then comes up again? The conflicting device was a HDHomerun, both getting router assigned IP's to MAC addresses. [03:28] the dhcp server assigned them the same IP? [03:29] pfSense is usually pretty good, and rejects mistakes, seems the logic does not catch that error though [03:29] = yes [03:29] that's odd... it shouldn't do that... [03:29] snap [03:29] the only reason IP conflicts happen is usually because someone assigns a static IP within the dhcp range [03:30] ... I should say the usual reason, rather [03:30] agreed. [03:30] do you have a shortage of IPs? [03:31] I'll notify the pfSense guys, they'll prob want to check the checks [03:31] sounds like you're on a home network? [03:31] I run pfsense and have never had that happen [03:31] Yeah its a full "home" LAN [03:31] approx 70 devices on it though. [03:32] Do you serve up IPs also? [03:32] if IPs were short.... it's possible something weird happened where the DHCP gave it an IP from a system that was off at the time, then when it came back on it requested that IP again and somehow got it. [03:32] yea... [03:32] I run a dhcp server on it [03:33] Which version are you running? [03:33] 1.2.3 [03:33] are you running 2.0? [03:33] 1.2.3-RELEASE [03:33] hmmm [03:35] OK here's my guess what happens. The HDHomerun sends somthing for a DHCP update, grabs IP X, then a little later the server does same and gets it back again [03:40] electorfreak: I was going to ask if you wanted to try assigning same IP to a 2nd device and see if you get an error also? Can understand if you don't want to.... [03:43] Actually one can change the IP using edit and there is no error reported. [03:45] hmmm, have an realtek 8111 card. What could prevent it from coming up in ifconfig [03:46] Repto, I've seen IP conflicts in the past... [03:46] oh wait, are you saying that you assign IPs on your router? Why not use a dhcp server to do it for you? [03:47] I'm using the DHCP server on the router. [03:49] Actually I split the range, some are served using DHCP and others are just assigned from the rest of the range. (where their MAC is not pre-assigned) [03:51] Its pinging away for 24 mins now with no apparent break now, so that seems to have been the problem alright. It would reliably happen within 10 mins before. [04:07] Thanks electorfreak and pmatulis I am much obliged. [04:18] What do I need to set up so my server can send mail? [04:47] anybody using pure-ftpd? I'm trying to figure out why pure-uploadscript is initiated by inetd === _TechAway_ is now known as _Techie_ [05:27] Who manages the repos? Minor problem with dovecot-common [05:27] Minor as in its completely and totally un installable. [05:29] electrofreak: There still? [05:31] http://blog.pfsense.org/?author=2&paged=3 says "Relax the ip address check and allow duplicate ip address entries which allows fr example a wireless card and a ethernet card on a laptop to share the same ip address" [05:32] Repto, oh... hmmm [05:32] that is actually kinda cool..... I've always wanted my laptop's wireless and wired to have the same IP.... [05:32] where is that option? [05:33] I guess its done by assigning the same IP to the differing MAC's [05:33] *facepalm* nevermind. [05:33] Like I effectively did [05:34] ah [05:35] I suppose its OK to have them both assigned to the same IP.....in that case.... [05:41] I need some help here with some vmware server installation issues [05:43] * Datz is curious [05:45] is that a curious as to what the problem is?

[05:58] yeah [05:59] well, wipe the drive, and try again I guess. [05:59] I'm on 10.04 myself [05:59] don't wanna do that...spent hours getting my extra stuff installed [05:59] ah [06:00] humm [06:00] can you try installing an older kernel? === FireCrotch is now known as nickmoeck [06:00] I can...didn't think to try an older kernel [06:01] I guess I'd try that myself, unless a newer one was availiable. [06:02] no...have the latest stable kernel [06:02] which version? [06:02] 35-22 server [06:02] ah [06:03] I guess you could always try the -virtual kernel too [06:03] this is the error I get the directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match [06:03] your running kernel (version 2.6.35-22-server). Even if the module were to [06:03] compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel. [06:04] I have tried every directory with header info I could find.... [06:05] that is a strange error [06:05] although I'm not a seasoned ubuntu-server user [06:06] it's actually just a generic desktop with the server kernel added [06:06] ah [06:06] hey guys, how can I enable my network card? When I do lshw -C network i see it's disabled === _TechAway_ is now known as _Techie_ [06:09] Adman65: you're sure it's not something that's enabled in bios? [06:09] as far as I know, you can't disable the networking card from bios [06:09] (on my motherboard) [06:10] ok [06:12] is that what that usually means?

[18:19] AstralStorm, for what is cp -a? [18:20] AstralStorm, for what is cp -r [18:21] AstralStorm, how more than just files? [18:21] -r is recursive [18:21] cp -a is archive mode. read what that means [18:21] cp -r is like you've called cp for everything inside and created directories [18:21] well I need cp -r [18:21] no, cp -a also copies directories and more [18:21] to copy folder from where to anywhere [18:22] with all folders in this folder and all files [18:22] AstralStorm: any experience with suphp and phpmyadmin? [18:22] franksterville: almost none with suphp, some with phpmyadmin. [18:22] ne7work: again, run: man cp and read that [18:23] franksterville: see, I prefer wsgi nowadays [18:24] Perhaps not the right channel for this, but what server OS would you use if you were unable to use Ubuntu Server? [18:24] AstralStorm: not familiar at all. does it play nice with standard LAMP [18:24] Due to hardware specs... [18:24] franksterville: ... it's not yet a standard setup [18:24] X-Sleepy-X: I'd prefer 1) Gentoo 2) you can always replace whatever is there with what you want [18:24] AstralStorm: trying not to compile to much so I can update without having to recompile [18:25] franksterville: take a look at mod_wsgi and similar [18:25] see what it does. it's like php CGI, but better [18:25] AstralStorm: rgr i will [18:25] AstralStorm: I'm not sure if I would have the patience with Gentoo on the old hardware I have in mind... [18:25] AstralStorm, how to left from man cp [18:26] q [18:26] X-Sleepy-X: of course. now then, you can drop in your own Ubuntu Server on a partition [18:26] or in a chroot if you can't touch partitions [18:26] X-Sleepy-X, thanks ;p [18:26] AstralStorm: How do you mean? [18:27] X-Sleepy-X: see, you can just unpack your ubuntu of choice, mount --bind /dev, /proc, /sys and most everything else [18:27] the only thing you won't be able to try out that way is the init system [18:28] Oh, and that would install everything just as if I tried to run a normal installation? [18:28] Except for some settings I guess. [18:30] AstralStorm: can wsgi run php on a per user basis, i use suphp to keep sites on the same server as their own user [18:33] franksterville: it's the other way around [18:33] with wsgi, the php runs in its own server [18:33] which can obviously run as any user you want [18:33] s/the php/the php app/ [18:33] AstralStorm: soz you are running an instance per site? [18:34] hmm, more like per application, not site [18:34] user sites have their own instance [18:34] for each user [18:34] AstralStorm: ye thats the impass, I want php from site a not to be able to talk to site b [18:35] obviously, separate servers work for that [18:35] mod_php is a hack anyway [18:35] AstralStorm: each site is under a diff user [18:35] speedup hack, but still a hack [18:35] AstralStorm: ye totally [18:35] see, suphp is the other way around, apache starts php [18:36] wsgi is like, you start that wsgi server then apache only forwards request to it and possibly caches [18:36] AstralStorm: yes basically suphp takes over instead of mod_php [18:36] yes, it's easy to set up [18:36] I wonder why do you ask me about that then :) [18:37] wsgi is more involved to set up [18:37] AstralStorm: 4 diff users quarntined + 1 server = headache sigh [18:37] feel free to run light subservers [18:37] well suphp runs virtual hosts [18:37] uses rather* [18:37] yes [18:38] again, it's easier to set up [18:38] why do you ask me about it then? the docs are on the site [18:38] phpmyadmin is a separate app that should be installed as a separate user [18:38] but the issue of course is whether you can trust it to not mess up [18:38] if you can't, then install one phpmyadmin for each user [18:38] AstralStorm: because sometimes people with experience can quickly say "look at blah blah blah" [18:39] (or symlink) [18:39] Hmm, how do I add a ppa in ubuntu server? [18:39] add-apt-repository returns command not found [18:39] AstralStorm: oh thats an idea phpmy admin per suer [18:39] user * sigh [18:39] suer haha [18:40] lol what happens when u let noobs in here like me [18:48] anyone can help me work out my apache setup?

[19:55] yup so the structure is shared with create mask 770 then I have folders for individual users then group folders [19:56] windows not posix [19:57] I notice that the users have a group autocreated for them [19:58] 770 is not 777 [19:58] your windows doesn't understand POSIX groups btw [19:59] and samba uses the Other group for access from guests [19:59] yeah because guests shouldn't have access [19:59] just owners nd groups [19:59] you'd have to login as the windows user, and add it in samba server's user map [19:59] unfortunately, I did that only twice in my life and can't remember [19:59] *I've done that [20:00] yeah i know that part [20:00] so feel free to add your windows user to some group [20:01] mapping drives are the easy part. it's the unix permissions. so what i did was just that add windows users to group [20:01] but lets say in a folder that i assign a group too [20:02] New bug: #661858 in freeradius (main) "Add otp support" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/661858 [20:02] let's say ubuntu group. one user creates a file, the others in the same group get access denied [20:03] i notice that a user tho auto generates a group for that user and everything they write assigns both that owner and user [20:03] how can i change it to nogroup? [20:04] that way I figure, everything they create will work [20:04] sorry, no idea [20:04] but i dunno for sure [20:04] #samba? [20:04] omg [20:04] there's a samb room? [20:04] I suspect there is [20:05] ask alis about it, e.g. /msg alis list samba [20:05] o k cuz ppl told me to come here [20:05] uh, *samba* there :) [20:05] yes!! lol thanks you just opened up my world [20:06] sorry peeps kept telling me to come here and i was like... um... nobody holds the key to it lol thanks dude [20:06] dudette whtevs [20:10] hi setting up lvm on a hd, however, I have 80GB which I wish to make spare incase I need to extend, do I assign a partition and filesystem to it or leave the the option blank? [20:16] pizzabox, what you're probably looking for is the "force group" directive for your share [20:17] with that set, all new files created are group-owned by that group [20:17]
