[00:58] topic have 10.04 changed to https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/ [01:11] is there a package I can apt-get that will set the "different Kernel options" somewhat described on https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/preparing-to-install.html#intro-server-differences [01:21] CarlFK: you need to recompile the kernel in order to have different options [01:22] CarlFK: why do you want to change the kernel? [01:24] pmatulis: mainly experimenting - it's just a p4 box in my basement that I will use for a proxy, so doesn't really matter [01:24] I am guessing there is a package that contains the -server kernel? (I know the installer doesn't compile it on the fly.. that would be generally too much trouble :) [01:25] CarlFK: there are some wiki pages that describe how to compile the kernel. i suggest you stick to ubuntu-specific instructions [01:28] you mean like this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CarlKarsten "My kernel howto" :) [01:29] like I said... I don't want to compile - I want to use whatever the installer installs. just having trouble figuring out what it installs [01:30] here we go:linux-server - Complete Linux kernel on Server Equipment. [01:45] CarlFK: try to find some official ubuntu documentation [01:46] Hi, i'm running 10.10 desktop and have installed qemu, kvm and virt-manager. I have setup a bridge and want to use it on a guest, but i can't see the bridge when i start virt-manager as a normal user (with libvirtd group)... how can i fix this? [01:47] i have tried to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking but i can't get it working === _Techie_ is now known as _TechAway_ [01:59] hello, I am trying to fix my ftp server and need to know, what are the 39 68 numbers in this message? "227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,1,2,39,68)" I think that they are port numbers but they do not relate to tcpdump output. [02:00] I am trying to get passive ftp to work (i have a router). [02:03] Ejdesgaard: you need to connect to libvirtd in system mode [02:06] pmatulis, how? [02:10] Ejdesgaard: you add a local connection to virt-manager [02:10] Ejdesgaard: you want to see 'localhost (QEMU)' in the menu [02:12] pmatulis, i have "localhost (QEMU Usermode)" [02:12] Ejdesgaard: exactly, you don't want that [02:12] Ejdesgaard: you want system mode [02:13] i want to be able to choose br0 NAT for the NIC on a client. and i would like to be able to do it without "sudo virt-manager" [02:14] Ejdesgaard: i'm trying to tell you how [02:19] pmatulis, virt-manager -c qemu://system was the answer :) [02:19] thanks for the help [02:19] Ejdesgaard: keep on truckin' [02:20] Ejdesgaard: but you should be able to add a connection to get that [02:20] Ejdesgaard: i just tried it [02:21] hmm... yes === _TechAway_ is now known as _Techie_ [02:52] pmatulis: thanks (please excuse my delayed response) [03:34] Greetings. I realize this might be a VSFTP problem, but I'm not sure... I'm trying to get a vsftp server running on an Ubuntu installation. I need to change the port from the default of 21. I'm able to successfully change the port, but the "list" command doesn't execute properly. I suspect because the server is trying to send information to the client over port 20. I tried changing that too, but to no avail. Does anyone know how to chan [03:38] nvm. topic moved to #ubuntu === rbniknej is now known as jenkinbr [04:15] hi!

[06:45] are there any console email checkers other than mail, and pine ? [06:57] BlackJamMan: tons. elm and mutt come to mind [07:01] CarlFK: eh I'll just have to wait on the system admin I think. I can read it with more /var/spool/mail/myuser though [07:35] Quick Poll: what is better, LTS or non LTS for a server? [In the dilemma of Upgrade/Do not Upgrade/Upgrade/Do not upgrade] [07:39] Error404NotFound: LTS [07:40] Error404NotFound: well, at least if it's a productive system. if you just want to play, go with whatever you like [07:40] joschi, and the last plucked petal also says LTS/Do not Upgrade :) [07:41] Error404NotFound: that's one smart flower ;) [07:41] joschi, ofcourse, it belongs to me afterall :) ^_^ === _Techie_ is now known as lobster === lobster is now known as _Techie_ [09:08] 'ello [09:43] [10:09] Hmm, does anyone use ufw for gateway + firewall? [10:41] jaakkop: for fw, yes [10:44] I was just wondering what would be the most suitable solution for a home router. [10:45] jaakkop: dedicated router? [10:45] or server/router/something? [10:46] A small server used as my home network's router among other things. [10:47] ok, ufw can be used with that quite easily [10:47] Yeah [10:48] hi there, i have the following dir /var/www/folder which has the permissions username:username drwxrwxr-x i want my apache to be able to access this folder and write new files. currently it cannot. please advise. [10:48] that is - last I checked ufw doesn't have any built-in stuff for NAT, so you need to do that manually with iptables (which is the underlying infrastructure under ufw) [10:49] Zeu5: with 775 permissions, as you have, only user and group can write there [10:49] I know. I'm just wondering it's the best solution for a gw+fw. :-) [10:49] I'd say pfSense :) [10:49] RoyK:thank you for your response. so i have no choice but to make it 777? [10:50] Zeu5: or make sure www-data is in the same group... [10:50] I rebooted my server after upgrade, everything wine fine, it loads fine, except that i don't see a prompt on console... [10:50] Zeu5: or use posix ACLs [10:50] I think I'll just use ufw for now then... [10:50] RoyK: i am unfamiliar with either option. i am new to ubuntu. which option would you advise to someone like me? [10:51] Zeu5: ls -ld dirname - that shows you which user/group owns the file - vi /etc/group and add www-data to that group [10:52] * RoyK hands Zeu5 a 'learning unix systems' bible [10:52] RoyK: thank you :) [10:53] RoyK: which book would that be? not all such books are created equally. would love to hear what book an expert like yourself would recommend to me [10:56] sorry - I really don't know [10:57] * RoyK has never had a book about linux, but then, he installed his first linux box back in 1994 and is still learning [10:58] RoyK: that is cool. I am learning too. thanks for your coaching :) :) [11:01] what tool to use to inquiry a seral port modem to see all specs and which seral port is connected? [11:04] SAngeli: minicom?

[13:44] host OS i mean [13:44] brontoeee, linux [13:44] c0nv1ct, which one? [13:45] brontoeee, any... [13:45] brontoeee, look into openvz or LXC, they work in any linux [13:45] c0nv1ct, ok, thanks [13:46] you'll have low overhead that way, or you could do full virtualization with something like kvm [13:46] (more overhead) [13:51] openvz seems to be fedora related? [13:52] brontoeee: not really. it's just that parallels provides prebuilt kernels for rhel/centos [13:53] is there something thats preinstalled into ubuntu-server to be used for such virtualization? [13:54] brontoeee: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVZ [13:55] also related q: can i make such an apliance, dev it locally, then just copy/paste it on production server, or what is the workflow? [13:56] brontoeee: you basically just have to copy the container file which contains the VE's filesystem [13:58] how is cpu/IO management done on the production server, say i would like to have certain machines to have more cpu avaliable? [14:13] hi, i´ve got questions about kvm and I want to join #ubuntu-virt but I don´t have a invitation. so anybody know how to join chan?

Valid suites are: dapper gutsy hardy intrepid jaunty karmic lucid [15:01] someone here told me about a ppa to get openvnz install on 10.04 [15:03] ah, its lxc now, i remember [15:04] resno, ya, i just made the switch from openvz to lxc, still trying to figure out lxc [15:05] c0nv1ct: ive never worked with it, do you download containers or what? [15:05] resno, apparently you can migrate existing openvz templates [15:06] have you tried it? [15:06] i haven't gotten that far yet, i just completely redid my server yesterday :) [15:06] ah, of course :-\ [15:06] once i finish prelude/snort i'll finish setting up lxc, i got as far as creating the bridge [15:07] you got a public server or a prive home network thing? [15:07] this one is private [15:08] i think ill just uninstal lxc for the time being [15:09] seems more complicated then i want to jump into now [15:09] yeah, it doesnt seem as mature as openvz, not yet at least [15:09] openvz was up and running in a matter of minutes when i first used it in gentoo [15:09] openvz isnt supported? [15:10] i believe it is, but is being phased out [15:10] afaik, lxc hasn't replaced it entirely as of yet [15:10] when a static ip on a laptop moves on the network from on switch port to another I loose sight of it from the server, even though they still have connectivity - if i clear the arp table on the server everything is fine... how can i prevent this [15:25] Arp and bridging dont seem to ne working... i have 3 interfaces on br0, eth1, eth2, eth3 - ARP is not reliable, one i move a device that is attached to eth1 to eth3, then I can not ping the device again, unless I clear my arp cache, can this be avoided? [15:29] zealiod: that's basically how arp caching work [15:29] zealiod: also, different NICs shouldn't be on the same IP net unless you use link aggregation [15:30] zealiod, why do you have 3 interfaces isolated yet on the same network? [15:31] RoyK: What about a roaming NIC, such as one on a laptop that has a fixed IP - how does ARP work then? [15:31] RoyK: Can ARP caching be turned off for certain IPs [15:31] doubt it [15:31] what do you mean "roaming nic"? [15:32] RoyK: a NIC ton a latop for example [15:32] *laptop [15:35] c0nv1ct: I'm bridging VLANs [15:35] zealiod: arp caching work - I just don't get what you're trying to do [15:36] RoyK: OK, so, I plug my laptop into eth1 and ping myself 192.168.101 from the server, all good... [15:37] RoyK: I then plug myself into eth2 and I can no longer ping myself from the server [15:37] zealiod: please explain the configuration of the server [15:37] RoyK: I flush the arp table on the server, and I can then ping 192.168.1.101 - I move back to eth1... and I can no longer ping the IP... [15:38] I have 3 interfaces that are bridged to 1 interface br0 [15:38] why do you use two NICs on the same IP network? [15:38] RoyK: I'm bruding them [15:38] *bridging them [15:38] you dont bridge within the same ip network... [15:38] a bridge connects different ip networks [15:39] eth1 0.0.0.0, eth2 0.0.0.0 and then I add those nics to br0 on 192.168.1.1 [15:39] works a charm [15:40] nm, you are right, i'm tarded this morning... that should work [15:44] zealiod: a bridge is something between two physical network [15:44] zealiod: what you're doing isn't really a good idea [15:45] RoyK, isnt that what he has? one physical network behind eth1 and another behind eth2 [15:47] c0nv1ct: didn't seem like that to me, but then, I have no idea what he's trying to do - he hasn't detailed the setup [15:48] RoyK, it seems like he is trying to setup the linux box basically as a layer 2 switch [15:48] it would help to know more info though [15:49] zealiod_: please detail your setup [15:49] it's no use for us to start guessing [16:42] New bug: #668775 in samba (main) "read only = no for Profiles in default smb.conf" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/668775 [18:46] New bug: #668818 in keepalived (main) "Please merge keepalived 1:1.1.20-1 (main) from debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/668818 [18:48] how can i force a run of crons inside my crontab? these are not in cron.*/ dirs...
