cjmaynar_hey, so I've got a home server setup, and I've got my domain forwarding a subdomain to it, but as soon as i visit that subdomain, it just goes to the ipaddress, how would i set it up to keep the subdomain/domain?00:21
KnightHackercjmaynar_: How did you set up "domain forwarding a subdomain to it"?00:53
KnightHackerDid you create a DNS record?00:53

jose120photoanyone in here have experience running tomcat on ubuntu server?04:04
Dantes13Tried to setup 10.04 server with software raid 1.  2 hard drives.  2 standard partitions with /boot and swap, then lvm for root, tmp, var/log, etc...  Install goes fine, but on reboot it hangs at the spash screen.  When I do mdadm --detail on each raid, all non LVM arrays (/boot and swap) won't activate.  Has anyone seen this?06:01

eagles0513875Dantes13: if im not mistaken you have to set the whole drive to be an lvm drive im not 100% sure06:53

MACscrare the cloud tools for ubuntu that i see at ubuntu.com included with the server edition of ubuntu server or at least freely available?07:27
MACscrnvm, looks like it does07:30
MACscror maybe not. Seems there is a mix of a few things07:31
jmarsdenMACscr: If you could be more specific about which tools where on ubuntu.com, others might be in a better position to help answer your question.  Ubuntu server does include tools sufficient to create your own private cloud and manage it, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC07:34
demonsporkhow do I get mysql to listen to only a single internet IP address as well as localhost?07:44
MACscrjmarsden: does it allow you to pick what technology you want it to manage? such as xen or kvm07:46
jmarsdenMACscr: I'm not sure.  I've played with it a few months back but only as a trivial experiment, not real world usage.07:57
jmarsdendemonspork: You don't, as far as I know.  the bug is still open: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=1497907:57
demonsporkwell, what I am trying to do is make it listen but only let it accept connections from a single remote IP address, I don't care how many interfaces it binds to08:05
jmarsdendemonspork: Oh, then comment out the bind_address line from my.cnf, and then packet filter things so only the one remote client can connect to its port (usually 3306).08:06
demonsporkah, k08:07
demonsporkalthough that limitation you linked me to is rather odd - that is something I would assume it could do08:08

HackeMatehello09:19
HackeMateI'm looking for some tutorial about logrotate, I'm unable to make save logs for 4 months09:19
HackeMateI followed some webtuto but can't make it work09:20
HackeMatethe man logrotate doesn't help me at all09:20
joschiHackeMate: you just have to keep as many rotated logs ("rotate X") as fit into 4 months when considering your rotation interval (daily, weekly, monthly)09:23
HackeMatewhere to set up that09:29
HackeMateI have the dhcpd stored in /var/log/dhcpd/dhcpd.log09:30
HackeMateI wanted to separate it daily and for 4 months09:30
HackeMate# rotate log files weekly09:31
HackeMateweekly09:31
HackeMateInstead that, i put monthly?09:31
homecablevar/lib/ureadahead/debugfs <<< whats that09:32
joschiHackeMate: in your /etc/logrotate.conf or better in /etc/logrotate.d/$customfile09:43
HackeMatethere is where I fail, what $customfile I put, I guess anything I can remember09:44
=== _Techie_ is now known as _TechAway_
joschiHackeMate: correct09:45
HackeMatebut I dont know what to add inside, /var/log/dhcpd/dhcpd.log?09:45
HackeMateor just /var/log/<service name>09:45
HackeMateI also guess /var/log/dhcpd/dhcpd.log ?09:45
joschihomecable: http://lwn.net/Articles/115405/09:47
joschiHackeMate: the syntax is described in `man logrotate` (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man8/logrotate.8.html)09:47
joschiHackeMate: you can also take another of the files in there as a template for your own09:47
HackeMateyes I was reading those templates but they don't say what the last /word is09:48
HackeMate# no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here                                                           /var/log/wtmp {09:48
HackeMateit's the same09:48
joschiHackeMate: "last /word"?09:50
HackeMate/var/log/wtmp { <- what is wtmp really, a servicename? or a logfile09:51
joschiHackeMate: it's the file /var/log/wtmp09:51
joschiHackeMate: really, read the manpage. it's not that hard09:51
HackeMatemy english is not that good09:52
HackeMatewell, I will see if the google translator is powerful in this case09:52

Tuzlo_morning all, I know this really isnt the polace to ask hardware questions, but I was planning on installing Ubuntu on my Dell Poweredge 1850. I dont know if I messed up the scsi settings or whether I have a bad scsi drive. Is there anyone around right now that can afford to help me?13:23

Tuzlo_I am planning on installing Ubuntu-server on my Dell Poweredge 1850. Is there anyone around to assist with setting up the scsi controller and drives?14:17
kirklandcjwatson: hmm, so i'm quite surprised today to install a stock Ubuntu 10.10 server, and neither screen nor vim get installed15:23
kirklandcjwatson: this is a regression since 10.0415:24
kirklandcjwatson: checking the server seed, both screen and vim are there15:24
kirklandcjwatson: perhaps the server cd is no longer using the server seed?15:25

hallynnot sure what you mean -afaik we don't have an official install medium for 'enterprise cloud', we only have sample iamges in the amazon image store, right?16:52
hallynbut, the diff woudl be less drivers since in the cloud you know what hw you'll get.  server is for on hardware16:53
Tuzlo_oh, cause the server ISO I downloaded has enteprise cloud as an install option16:55

demonsporkthe server crashed20:36
sorenHow/why?20:36
demonsporkwell, this is a VDS, some planned maintenance took it down early in the morning to upgrade the version of Xen20:37
demonsporkand the new version had a bug with disk access that made the server grind to a halt that afternoon20:37
