ehcahOnce I have  a 16 disk Raid6 array up and running.  I need to work on a backup solution.  My primary box has 16 x 2TB drives and I have one extra I will keep unopened as a spare.03:09
ehcahIf I want to design a solution for disk based back up of this array that I can grow as my primary array grows, what would be a best practice?03:09
ehcahI don't believe the backup server needs the same level of raid.  It may need nothing more than a JBOD type solution?  I only 5TB of data right now, so in a perfect world, I want to start with 3-4 2TB drives and add disk only as needed.03:10

ehcahjmarsden:  It's too bad those web based services scare me soo much.  I'd use them and not worry about recreating their solution in my basement.  Besides, their bandwith tells me I could back up about 4TB to them a day. Incrementally speaking, that would be nothing.12:56

rushdyHi there! I'm following the server guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/likewise-open.html) and have used Likewise Open to join our school domain. I seem to be missing the utilities listed in the Other Utilities section? lwinet, lwimsg, lwiinfo, likewise-winbindd (which I was hoping to use for NTLM with Squid). Any ideas?14:23

abstrakthi so I'm setting up postfix (trying to) I've been reading a few documents, most notably https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/postfix.html and http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html21:49
abstraktwhen I run service postfix restart21:49
abstraktthe message says stopping [ OK ] starting [ OK ] but I can't telnet to port 25 on this box21:49
abstraktI can ssh to the box, but I can't get to port 2521:50
abstrakthere's my postfix config file, main.cf -> http://pastebin.com/YcsqFc5321:58
mrmisthave you tried that locally as well?22:01
abstraktmrmist, nope lemme try locally22:02
mrmistjust to avoid any external issues22:02
abstraktmrmist, yeah ok interesting, that does work22:03
abstraktmrmist, telnet localhost 2522:03
mrmistfirewalls?22:03
abstrakt220 mylongiphostnamehere ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu)22:03
abstraktmrmist, hmm, not positive, let me check, I did a brief/cursory check for iptables22:04
abstraktbut I guess I didn't check well enough, brb22:04
abstraktmrmist, as I said, I can ssh to the server just fine, and I can also get to port 80, both from outside the server22:04
abstrakthmm, how do I exit telnet?22:04
mrmistquit22:05
abstraktahh nm22:05
mrmistthat doesn't preclude a firewall that's blocking off port 25 though, of course.  But if your iptable rules are clear you should be ok there22:05
sherrnetstat will show what's listening on an ip/ port e.g. netstat -lnpt22:06
sherrpostfix is listening on all ports (inet_interfaces = all)22:06
sherr/interfaces/ I mean22:06
abstraktyeah aptitude says iptables is installed, this is Ubuntu 10.1022:06
abstraktwhere wouldu I find that? i don't see it in /etc/iptables22:07
sherrbut is only going to accept mail from "localhost" because of "my_networks"22:07
sherriptabes -L -n - will show if theer are rules loaded and active22:07
abstraktok which iptables reports /sbin/iptables22:07
abstraktsherr, ok thanks22:07
mrmistyou might want iptables -L -n -v22:08
abstraktok22:08
abstraktmrmist, hmm, not much difference between the two22:09
mrmist-v gives you more info so you can see rules that govern specific ports etc.22:09
abstrakthttp://pastebin.ca/199158922:09
abstraktmrmist, ^ is the output of iptables -L -n and iptables -L -n -v22:09
mrmistoh right it's all open22:10
abstraktyeah :/22:10
abstraktthat's what I thought22:10
mrmistthat's kinda odd then22:10
abstraktexactly22:10
abstraktmrmist, like I said, I can ssh in no problem22:10
mrmistThe config suggests it should be working22:10
abstraktblast :/22:10
abstraktmrmist, could the myhostname and myorigin params have anything to do with it?22:11
abstraktmrmist, what about the mynetworks22:11
mrmistNot in terms of refusing connectivity outright22:11
mrmistpresumably where you are telneting *from* is not barred from accessing remote servers on port 25?22:11
abstraktmrmist, here's my master.cf http://pastebin.ca/199159322:12
mrmistwhat does netstat -n -l say22:13
abstraktmrmist, netstat on what, on the server? or from my laptop?22:13
mrmistis it 0.0.0.0 25 listening22:13
mrmiston the server22:13
abstraktk one sec22:13
mrmisttcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN22:13
mrmistis what you're looking for (or similar)22:13
abstraktmrmist, I do in fact have this line22:14
abstrakttcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN22:14
abstraktcopied and pasted22:14
mrmistok. i reckon, then, that it's actually working, but for some reason you can't telenet to it from your laptop host22:14
mrmiston port 2522:14
abstraktdammit :(22:15
mrmistmaybe there's some other host you can test connecting from?22:16
mrmistor, just leave it up for a few days and the spammers will test it for you.. if you see rejections in your mail logs you know it's up and running22:16
abstraktmrmist, yeah weird, because earlier I was seeing rejections in my logs22:17
abstraktbut now22:17
abstraktI'm not seeing anything else anymore22:17
abstraktdangit, must have borked something22:17
mrmistcould be coincedental.  Try restarting the deamon22:18
abstraktmrmist, I have, a few times22:18
mrmistoh :(22:18
abstraktyeah22:18
mrmistYou might need someone more knowledgable to check your config, but the key  bits seem similar to mine which works22:18
mrmistgotta say, though, that it looks like it's working :)22:19
abstraktmrmist, http://pastebin.ca/199159822:20
abstraktmrmist, is my maillog, so it was working at one point, because I saw spammers hitting it, but I see no more spammers :(22:20
abstraktlol, the one time I can say that with a frowny face :P22:20
mrmistha22:21
mrmistit could be that they're just not connecting jsut now.  Of course that doesn't really help if what you want to do is connect from your laptop22:21
abstraktmrmist, back22:26
mrmistre22:26
mrmistUnfortunately I don't think I can do any more to help, short of testing your server from my own if you want to pm the IP.  (You are at liberty not to)22:27
=== jenkinbr is now known as squishy
abstraktwell floop22:32
mrmistHopefully some other folk will have some input on it22:32
abstraktok, I'm gonna contact rackspace support, see if they can help me :)22:33
mrmistalso may I recommend some firewall rules might be an idea, esp if it's net connected ;)22:34
ubuntu4shaneok, I setup my lamp server, (through tasksel) and it worked fine, then I started with virtual server, and enabled a site with a2ensite and reloaded apache, apache reports no errors upon reload, when I go to the site, it says forbidden22:42
ubuntu4shaneany ideas?22:42
mrmistno index file and directory indexes turned off?22:44
ubuntu4shanemrmist, for me?  not sure I follow you.22:44
squishyimproper file permissions on index file/dir?22:44
mrmistyes. i mean you'd get that if you didn't have an index.html or similar and indexes were disallowed through config22:45
ubuntu4shaneohh, got it, it was permissions on the folder22:46
ubuntu4shanewasn't set to 75522:46
mrmist:)22:46
ubuntu4shanethanks!!  That was the simplest setup I have done22:46
ubuntu4shaneI have been through this a few times, and every time it gets easier.22:46

mrmistall props to squishy i think in this case22:49
abstraktmrmist, yeah it looks like it's my ISP I think22:51
abstraktawww, lol whoops, just missed him22:52
abstraktwhere do I find the dovecot SASL socket? my /etc/dovecot/auth.d/01-mail-stack-delivery.auth says it should be in /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth but I don't have any such file?23:50
