[00:03] hi [00:03] anyone successfully update intrepid lately ? [00:03] it's like a massive pain [00:19] does btrfs do acl inheritence passthrough, like zfs? [00:19] or does it to any acl inheritence? [01:12] methods, since jaunty is no longer supported, I'm guessing it's not possible without a jaunty alternate disc [03:09] Once 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] If 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? [03:10] I 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.

[05:05] I use one, fwiw [05:11] is there any ami for lucid on amazon? [05:11] i was to test a t1.micro [05:13] one of my friends is trying to build a data storage only server and wants to setup the machine to use a raid-5 for his drives. and he is looking for a good hardware raid pci controller (not pci-e). anyone know of some good ones ? === jenkinbr is now known as squishy [08:25] i am unable to connect to my vsftpd on ubuntu lucid server, get http://pastebin.com/ijNabvjh have verified that password is correct === ihCiFriS is now known as SirFiChi === SirFiChi is now known as ihCiFriS === pw_thirdfloor is now known as peterfw === NG_ is now known as ng_ [12:51] New bug: #675164 in openssh (main) "New version of openssh cannot connect to ssh server" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/675164 [12:56] jmarsden: 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.

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? [15:09] I've got MAILTO=name@domain.com at the top of my crontab file and * * * * * date on the next line but I'm not getting any emails [15:25] Hi [15:26] Can i push any DNS names to the DHCP Clients ? [15:26] For example if i want to push DNS Names 8.8.8.8 ? [15:26] will that work [15:26] I am using DHCP Server on Ubuntu Linux Server 10.04 [15:28] kaushal: you can add it in /etc/resolv.conf [15:29] padhu: i dont want to add it manually :) [15:39] padhu: Anything else be done ? [15:40] Can anyone vouch for a solid "Cloud" backup solution for Linux NAS? [15:41] Does such a thing exist outside of Mac and Windows? [15:41] are you using proxy?

[22:02] mrmist, nope lemme try locally [22:02] just to avoid any external issues [22:03] mrmist, yeah ok interesting, that does work [22:03] mrmist, telnet localhost 25 [22:03] firewalls? [22:03] 220 mylongiphostnamehere ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) [22:04] mrmist, hmm, not positive, let me check, I did a brief/cursory check for iptables [22:04] but I guess I didn't check well enough, brb [22:04] mrmist, as I said, I can ssh to the server just fine, and I can also get to port 80, both from outside the server [22:04] hmm, how do I exit telnet? [22:05] quit [22:05] ahh nm [22:05] that 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 there [22:06] netstat will show what's listening on an ip/ port e.g. netstat -lnpt [22:06] postfix is listening on all ports (inet_interfaces = all) [22:06] /interfaces/ I mean [22:06] yeah aptitude says iptables is installed, this is Ubuntu 10.10 [22:07] where wouldu I find that? i don't see it in /etc/iptables [22:07] but is only going to accept mail from "localhost" because of "my_networks" [22:07] iptabes -L -n - will show if theer are rules loaded and active [22:07] ok which iptables reports /sbin/iptables [22:07] sherr, ok thanks [22:08] you might want iptables -L -n -v [22:08] ok [22:09] mrmist, hmm, not much difference between the two [22:09] -v gives you more info so you can see rules that govern specific ports etc. [22:09] http://pastebin.ca/1991589 [22:09] mrmist, ^ is the output of iptables -L -n and iptables -L -n -v [22:10] oh right it's all open [22:10] yeah :/ [22:10] that's what I thought [22:10] that's kinda odd then [22:10] exactly [22:10] mrmist, like I said, I can ssh in no problem [22:10] The config suggests it should be working [22:10] blast :/ [22:11] mrmist, could the myhostname and myorigin params have anything to do with it? [22:11] mrmist, what about the mynetworks [22:11] Not in terms of refusing connectivity outright [22:11] presumably where you are telneting *from* is not barred from accessing remote servers on port 25? [22:12] mrmist, here's my master.cf http://pastebin.ca/1991593 [22:13] what does netstat -n -l say [22:13] mrmist, netstat on what, on the server? or from my laptop? [22:13] is it 0.0.0.0 25 listening [22:13] on the server [22:13] k one sec [22:13] tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN [22:13] is what you're looking for (or similar) [22:14] mrmist, I do in fact have this line [22:14] tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN [22:14] copied and pasted [22:14] ok. i reckon, then, that it's actually working, but for some reason you can't telenet to it from your laptop host [22:14] on port 25 [22:15] dammit :( [22:16] maybe there's some other host you can test connecting from? [22:16] or, 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 running [22:17] mrmist, yeah weird, because earlier I was seeing rejections in my logs [22:17] but now [22:17] I'm not seeing anything else anymore [22:17] dangit, must have borked something [22:18] could be coincedental. Try restarting the deamon [22:18] mrmist, I have, a few times [22:18] oh :( [22:18] yeah [22:18] You might need someone more knowledgable to check your config, but the key bits seem similar to mine which works [22:19] gotta say, though, that it looks like it's working :) [22:20] mrmist, http://pastebin.ca/1991598 [22:20] mrmist, is my maillog, so it was working at one point, because I saw spammers hitting it, but I see no more spammers :( [22:20] lol, the one time I can say that with a frowny face :P [22:21] ha [22:21] it 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 laptop [22:26] mrmist, back [22:26] re [22:27] Unfortunately 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) === jenkinbr is now known as squishy [22:32] well floop [22:32] Hopefully some other folk will have some input on it [22:33] ok, I'm gonna contact rackspace support, see if they can help me :) [22:34] also may I recommend some firewall rules might be an idea, esp if it's net connected ;) [22:42] ok, 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 forbidden [22:42] any ideas? [22:44] no index file and directory indexes turned off? [22:44] mrmist, for me? not sure I follow you. [22:44] improper file permissions on index file/dir? [22:45] yes. i mean you'd get that if you didn't have an index.html or similar and indexes were disallowed through config [22:46] ohh, got it, it was permissions on the folder [22:46] wasn't set to 755 [22:46] :) [22:46] thanks!! That was the simplest setup I have done [22:46] I have been through this a few times, and every time it gets easier. === mquin- is now known as mquin [22:48] thanks mrmist squishy ! [22:49] all props to squishy i think in this case [22:51] mrmist, yeah it looks like it's my ISP I think [22:52] awww, lol whoops, just missed him [23:50] where 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?
