konnihello people .. I have one question .. I'm running 10.04 LTS with kernel 2.6.32-35  64 bit.. I'm looking for a safe way to upgrade the kernel to 2.6.35 without compiling it myself ..00:04
konniI know about the http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa PPA .. but I'm not sure that it contains the server edition of the kernel00:04
konnican anyone tell me if adding the http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa PPA to my sources list will upgrade the kernel to 2.6.35 server version or will i get the standard desktop version of the kernel ?00:05
bdjaceanyone have experience with ircd-hybrid?00:36
eriksson25Anyone know what disk /dev/dm-xx is?01:06
twbdm is the device mapper01:07
twbIt's used for LVM, LUKS, and a few other things (md raid?)01:07
eriksson25Oki, well, got both lvm and md raid. But didnt have these before. And now they are there.01:08
eriksson25Strange.01:08
twbYou probably just didn't notice them.01:08

chrismsnzHey guys, I read that Convirt 2.0 is now in the ubuntu partner repo - I can't seem to find it on my lucid installation though...01:39
crazifyngershey guys could anyone give me a hand recovering a raid-5 dm raid partition?  i can't get it to mount after moving the drives to a new computer01:40
snakeSo i have lamp installed, but how do i get my site on the web. ( I can view my site on my network, but my friend says that he can't at his house.)02:55
crazifyngersdo you have consumer internet or business class internet?02:56
snakeconsumer.02:56
crazifyngersgo into your router and port forward a nonstandard port say 9999 to port 80 of your internal webserver02:57
smoserkirkland, it would be nice if you'd push the on 'iamcli' at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+queue?queue_state=0&queue_text= for me.02:57
crazifyngersthen give your friend your external ip with the port number02:57
crazifyngersif they use ie they will have to put http://yoursiteip:999902:58
snakeso wait. it is asking me for the start and end ports02:58
crazifyngersjust make them the same02:58
crazifyngersstart 9999 end 999902:59
crazifyngersgonna throw my question up again...hey guys could anyone give me a hand recovering a raid-5 dm raid partition?  i can't get it to mount after moving the drives to a new computer /dev/md0 shows up in mdadm.conf with the same uid but when assembling it says "mdadm: /dev/md0 assembled from 1 drive - not enough to start the array."  but the drives are there and have the uuid listed03:01
snakeshould I change the port in my config file to 9999?03:02
snakecrazifyngers, should I change the port in my config file to 9999?03:03
crazifyngersyou can if you want but if you do then it is port 9999 both internally and externally.  if you leave it at port 80 and forward port 9999 to 80 externally then you don't have to change it03:04
snakehow do i forward to 80? there is no setting for that in forwarding03:06
crazifyngerswell it's different for different routers03:07
snakewhat should I type in for server ip address? my network ip?03:09
snakehmm... it won't let me type in the other one... it must be my local ip03:10
crazifyngerswhat do yoiu mean server ip address?  like what should you give to your friend?03:10
snakeit asks for server ip address. i think thats what i give to my friend03:11
crazifyngerswhere does it ask for that?03:12
snakein port forwarding03:12
crazifyngersno the server ip is the internal ip03:14
snakedefine internal?03:14
snakeyou mean what i get when i do ifconfig?03:15
snakefor eth103:15
crazifyngersyes03:15
crazifyngersinternal=inside your lan03:16
snakeok03:16
crazifyngersexternal=outside your lan03:16
snakeand it should be TCP/UDP right?03:16
crazifyngersdepends on the website.   some streams do udp.  but you should be ok with both03:17
snakeso i give him my external with port like this: xx.xx.xx.xx:999903:17
crazifyngersyea03:19
crazifyngersfind your external if you don't know it go to ipchicken.com03:19
snakeyeah i already have it. but i dont think it's working.03:20
snakeshould i try another port?03:28
crazifyngersi would check your router03:29
crazifyngersif you can get to it internally then maybe it is the port but doubtful03:29
snakemy router is a piece of crap netgear03:30
snakei might as well throw it out the windows and let my dogs chew on it.03:30

chrismsnzDoes anybody know the ETA of getting Convirt 2.0 into canonical's partner repo?04:02
chrismsnzi saw the announcement but it doesn't seem to be there at the moment04:02

pvh_sahi there, i've got a 10.10 server machine i want to build VMs on. i've tried with virt-install, but get an error ("failed to retrieve chardev info in qemu with 'info chardev'"), now looking at vmbuilder - but if i understand correctly vmbuilder pulls an install over the network, right?09:52
TeTeTpvh_sa: correct, it will d/l packages from archive.ubuntu.com, unless you specify a local mirror09:56
pwsHi guys... I'm seeing some reference in the 10.10 release announcements about gluster and ceph... does anyone know stable they are for real-world use in a cloud environment?09:57
pvh_saTeTeT, ok, not enough network here for that. back to trying to get virt-manager to work. thanks09:58
TeTeTpvh_sa: good luck. I use virt-manager on Lucid quite often and it worked fine for me so far10:01
pvh_saTeTeT, i've googled this error and it comes up quite often but often with different causes. i suspect what might be happening is *another* error which means this 'info chardev' is just a symptom10:02
TeTeTpvh_sa: never seen it, sorry10:04

soren[diablo]: Congratulations.11:09
sorenDaviey: Have you ever used Eucalyptus in SYSTEM mode?11:10
pwsSo here's a question for you lovely people... does UEC run Windows images alright? I can't seem to find much documentation either way...11:47
mgolischpws: did you google?11:51
mgolischtheres some howtos on howto deploy window images in eucalyptus opensource version11:51
pwsyes, I can find some vague references to 'I think it should be possible' and 'I'd like to', but nothing definite11:52
pwsAh, that'll probably be a good thing to search for then, I'll go and look :-)11:52

Davieysoren: the mode where instances get their IP from the host network dhcpd?12:02
Davieysoren: the mode where instances get their IP from the host network dhcpd?12:06
sorenDaviey: Yes.12:09
sorenDaviey: I think I found my answer now.12:09
Davieysoren: groovy12:09
mgolischwhat do you use that cloud stuff for?12:10
sorenDaviey: I was just wondering what sort of IP Eucalyptus would claim they had. A couple of forum posts suggest 0.0.0.0.12:10
Davieysoren: Yeah... i can't see how it could know12:11
Davieysoren: If they were really devious they could do an arp lookup12:12
DavieyI have used SYSTEM mode, but didn't observe the IP field output tbh... mainly that it was working :/12:12
sorenDaviey: Oh, I didn't expect it to know.12:16
sorenDaviey: I was just wondering if it actually assigned one internally ( and exposed it in euca-describe-instances) or if it actually didn't assign any.12:17
Davieysoren: I could check :)12:17
sorenDaviey: I couldn't possibly ask you to do anything with Eucalyptus. I like you.12:18
Daviey:o12:18
Davieysoren:  Now you mention it... my rig is currently tied up with other software atm.12:19
* bond hi13:25
zulDaviey: someone uploaded the new eucatools yet?13:30
Davieyzul: no... smoser has it in hand tho13:40
zulDaviey: if you want me to review it and upload it let me know..13:41
Davieyzul: Well i did a pass of smoser's branch yesterday; but you may have seen that all of his patches have now gone upstream (\o/)... so i imagine smoser will track that for this upload..13:42
DavieyIf smoser can get that done today, i'm sure he'll appreciate a second pair of eyes13:42
zulcool...13:42
hggdhzul: I will add you on a write-up of the SRU thingies you will give me13:48
zulhggdh: sure13:48
hggdh(that is, in my BP)13:48
hggdhzul: do you want to do the same with the admin of the dailies?13:49
zulhggdh: sure13:49
hggdhheh13:49
sorenDaviey: Ok, so I want to get the packaging branch in order.13:50
Davieysoren: "in order" ?13:50
sorenDaviey: Yes, as in "get it sorted out".13:50
Davieysoren: Oh awesome, what are you thinking?13:51
sorenDaviey: My current inclination (which changes by the hour, it seems) is to have a repository with just debian/* in it.13:51
sorenDaviey: That makes it simple to merge it into whichever branch of Nova you feel like building packages out of.13:53
zulthat would be good for me i think13:53
zuland then you guys can cherrypick anything you guys want13:53
sorenDaviey: ...and if you don't want to use upstream code from bzr (which I, somewhat ironically (being upstream and all) don't), you can just check out this branch from the top-level dir, fiddle with things, and bzr commit does what you expect.13:54
sorenDaviey: Instead of having the root of the repo /be/ (rather than /contain/) debian/, in which case debcommit, for instance, no longer works.13:54
Davieysoren: i entirelly agree that the packaging branch should not have the code in13:54
Davieyhmm13:55
Davieysoren: i was thinking ROOT:/debian/13:55
Davieyso otherwise empty13:55
Davieythis means that debcommit does still work13:56
sorenDaviey: I'm not sure I understand.13:56
Davieysoren: a bzr tree with only one top level directory13:56
sorenYes, that's what I'm suggesting.13:56
Davieyi agree with that13:56
sorenCool.13:57
Davieysoren: Do you have plans for having a consistent location for per commit tarballs?13:57
Daviey(/me is thinking, not hosted on LP)13:57
sorenDaviey: Already have that. Since yesterday. Try to keep up :)13:57
Davieyooooooo13:57
Davieywhat is it?13:57
sorenDaviey: http://nova.openstack.org/tarballs/13:57
Davieysoren: and that includes the magical fairy dust, that bzr doesn't - right?13:58
sorenDaviey: Indeed.13:58
Davieysoren: Ok... great13:59
zulsoren Daviey: the ubuntu-natty has config file changes that i had to do in order to get it working for natty13:59
sorenzul: Yeah, some of the defaults changed, too. We need to account for that somehow.13:59
Davieyzul / soren:  There probably needs to be two tree's now... one for Maverick and one for Natty13:59
sorenWe should also make all the various components use the same config file.13:59
sorenDaviey: Yes.13:59
zulsoren: agreed14:00
Davieysoren: Do you want to clean the tree out?14:00
zulthe apport hook is already done as well14:00
Davieyzul: damn.. you are fast.14:00
sorenDaviey: I do, I just wanted to get the bzr repo layout nailed down first.14:00
zulDaviey: i had a 3 hour plane ride ;)14:00
sorenDaviey: But that seems to be a done deal now. I'll whip up a new repo so we can start from scratch.14:00
sorenIf I didn't (and just bzr removed everything except debian/), merging it into code trees would be very awkward.14:01
Davieysoren: Ok.. great..   We are still all peer reviewing each other14:01
Davieyright?14:01
sorenOui.14:01
Daviey\o/14:01
sorenthere's an openstack-ubuntu-packagers team on lp.14:02
Davieyyeah, saw it14:02
sorenI'll make ubuntu-virt a member, along with Monty.14:02
Davieysoren: A clean tree makes sense IMO14:02
sorenI just didn't get around to it yet.14:02
sorenDaviey: I just need to make sure I can actually merge it then (i.e. it won't complain about lack of common ancestry).14:02
sorenDaviey: I'll work it out. Give me 20 minutes.14:02
Davieysoren: hmm.. should it ever need merging?14:03
sorenDaviey: "need" is such a strong word.14:03
sorenI think it's a valid use case.14:03
sorenIt's needed to make recipe based builds work.14:03
Davieybzr branch lp:nova ; bzr branch lp:~openstack-packagers/etc debian ;  cd nova ; ln -s ../debian debian14:03
Daviey?14:03
Davieyhmm14:04
Davieythat is probably unwise actually :)14:04
sorenI can see how it can be convenient.14:04
sorenIf you just want to track bleeding edge upstream and packaging, it's kind of handy to be ably to just use bzr for that.14:04
sorenIt's not super important, but if it's easy enough to accomplish, I might as well.14:05
Davieysoren: You can merge without common ancestry, in some situations... but TBH... working out how (i'm not clear myself), is probably a higher price than the reward14:05
sorenDaviey: I have a trick up my sleeve.14:06
sorenDaviey: You'll see.14:06
soren:)14:06
soren(if it works)14:06
* Daviey hopes it's not rude.14:06
zulsoren: example reciepe https://code.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/couchdb/trunk/+recipes14:07
sorenzul: Oh, we're already using recipes to build nova.14:07
sorenI just don't want to do that anymore.14:07
sorenFor a couple of reasons.14:07
zulsuch as?14:08
sorena) They're only built once a day. I want a package per commit.14:08
DavieyTBH.. i'm not sold on recipes myself tbh.14:08
zulso like a hudson hook or something?14:08
sorenb) We're building tarballs per commit.14:09
sorenb1) The tarballs have stuff in them that are not in bzr.14:09
sorenb2) The reason we resort to building from vcs is because upstream fail to provide tarballs per commit. We provide them, they should be used.14:10
soren(I use "we" very confusingly to mean "Ubuntu" and "openstack" as I go along)14:10
zulgotcha....what are in the tarballs that bzr doesnt have beside the .bzr directory (assumingly)14:11
Davieysoren: With Mythbuntu we build daily (via cron fired script) for ~3 ubuntu releases and 2 upstream version snapshots (trunk and stable/fixes)... that seems to work well14:11
Davieyusers are normally happy.14:11
sorenb3) Even if we were to build from bzr during the dev cycle, once there's a release out, we should use the tarball. vcs snapshots are used to be able to track development when releases are too infrequent. It's error prone to have one way to build packages during dev and another once we near release (i.e. when the tarball is released).14:12
sorenb4) Everyone besides Ubuntu will be using the tarballs. Having Ubuntu also build from tarballs feeds into OpenStack's QA. We can be sure everything needed to build Nova properly is in the tarball.14:13
sorenc) Upstream is kindly asking that this is to be so.14:13
sorenthat's a bit more than a couple, but I hope that's ok :)14:13
Davieysoren: I agree with your comments fwiw.14:18
sorenzul: There's a ChangeLog.14:18
sorenzul: More stuff may turn up.14:18
zulsoren: right14:19
Davieyzul: just noticed smoser is on holiday today and tomorrow... so re: euca2ools... it might make sense to leave until Monday, there is no huge rush, i guess14:19
sorenzul: it's like how you typically don't see the configure script in vcs for C projects, only the stuff needed to generate it.14:19
zulDaviey: ack14:19
sorenzul: Part of making a tarball is building that configure script.14:19
sorenzul: ..and other sorts of things. Right now, it's just the changelog and maybe I leave out a bzr plugin that generates said changelog.14:20
sorenzul: I'm not sure.14:20
zulsoren: cool...i would love to see the script eventually for my own projects14:20
sorenzul: It's mostly done.14:21
zulsoren: throw it into a bzr branch when you are done if you havent already14:23
sorenDaviey: My trick failed me. :(14:25
Davieysoren: what was it?14:25
sorenDaviey: See in #zr.14:25
soren#bzr, that is.14:26
Davieyk14:26
sorenScroll back about a pageful.14:26
Lord_RahlDoes anyone recommend a good NMS to monitor Asterisk14:26
Davieysoren: oh aye,.. good idea14:27
sorenDaviey: Not good enough.14:27
DavieyLord_Rahl: depends exactly on your requirements14:27
DavieyLord_Rahl: nagios works well for checking it's working :)14:28
ssureshotLogwatch doesn't seem to want to read my samba logs, anyone have a reason for this?14:29
Lord_RahlDaviey, I have try Nagios very labor intensive to setup. maybe I can find a plugin to add nodes, editing all the configs by hand sucks :)14:30
=== jdstrand_ is now known as jdstrand
sorenDaviey: This kind of pisses me off a bit.14:43
sorenDaviey: It seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to be able to do.14:44
Davieysoren: ack... svn allows it :)14:45
Davieyinfact, svn allows you to have external depends, that get pulled in when you co14:45
sorenDaviey: That's coming for bzr, too, I believe.14:46
sorenDaviey: Mostly driven by the need to be able to import such things from svn (and git, which also supports it).14:47
sorenThis is why we can't import libvirt to bzr on launchpad. It nests gnulib.14:47
uvirtbotNew bug: #677019 in backuppc (main) "package backuppc 3.1.0-9ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/67701915:06
sorenDaviey: Not sure how to resolve this. There's not way to make up a common ancestry, apparantly.15:11
sorenDaviey: bzr-builder can deal with it, as it turns out. It has a "nest-part" option that does the right thing.15:11
sorenDaviey: The problem is if someone wants to manually merge them. It's doable (bzr merge -r 0..-1 lp:blahblha), but not obvious.15:12

mgolischDaniel__: yeah or search for a driver16:49
mgolischas its fake/software raid anyways id just use md raid16:49

talntidNov 18 10:08:12 ltsp1 kernel: [ 3943.664469] nfs: server fs1 not responding, still trying18:16
talntidthis is causing my machine to hang... any ideas on troubleshooting this? fs1 is pingable18:17
patdk-wkdon't hard mount it, or use hard + intr18:17
patdk-wkman mount :)18:17
talntidchecking manpage18:19
talntidthe strong intr does not exist in the manpage... ?18:20
talntidhttp://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_network/x-087-2-nfs.mountd.html18:21
talntid=]18:21
patdk-wkoh heh, they moved the nfs stuff to man nfs18:21
talntidthe file server, has 7.X loads...18:22
patdk-wkmine gets up to 30+ at times18:22
patdk-wkbut it does take some work, to get it that high18:23
talntidif I throw more processor/ram at it, will it help? or just delay the inevitable?18:24
patdk-wkit would help (very little)18:24
patdk-wkit's probably disk i/o it's waiting on18:24
talntidhmmm18:25
talntidpossibly. any good way to test this?18:25
patdk-wktop :)18:26

talntidhttp://pastebin.com/gbmdN6bs18:28
patdk-wkso the higher the wa is, the faster you need to make your drives go, basically18:28
talntidbut I'm not sure what "sane" numbers would be, to compare to. will any machine do?18:28
talntidto benchmark it against18:28
patdk-wkdoesn't matter18:28
patdk-wkit's what ever is applicatable to you, and your usage18:29
patdk-wkgenerally why benchmark numbers don't mean much18:29
patdk-wkunless your doing the exact same thing as that benchmark18:29
talntidvmstat: http://pastebin.com/9KZEsWxi18:29
patdk-wkthat is useless18:30
patdk-wkyou need like a lot of lines of output from vmstat18:30
talntidseemed like it. it needs to update continually18:30
talntidyeah :)18:30
patdk-wkvmstat 1018:30
patdk-wklet it for for like 10min or so18:30
patdk-wkthe first time is a summary line, since boot18:30
patdk-wkdefently use smartctl on your drives tocheck their health too18:31
talntidokay, can do.18:31
talntidthis is a dell poweredge 2950 server, so it's not just a homebrew machine, too...18:32
patdk-wkraid?18:32
talntidraid518:32
patdk-wkthen smartctl probably won't work18:32
talntidbut also running DRBD, if you are familiar with it18:32
patdk-wkmake sure you check the raid health18:32
patdk-wkdrbd slows everything down to a crawl18:33
patdk-wkcause it has to confirm writes on the other machine18:33
_ruben depends on the drbd config tho18:33
talntidit's set in dual primary mode18:33
patdk-wkwell, using non-write confirmation isn't that safe :)18:33
_rubenah, you like living on the edge18:33
talntidi only write to one still, currently...18:34
patdk-wkit still has to transfer that write from the first machine, to the second18:34
patdk-wkconfirm it's written18:34
patdk-wkget that confirmation back, and tell your nfs client about it18:34
_rubenindeed, if any way possible, disable the sync for a short while and see what happens18:34
_rubentoo many layers currently where it could be going wrong18:34
talntidindeed18:35
patdk-wkya, and with drbd like that18:35
patdk-wkeither one could be slow, not both18:35
patdk-wkso we have to figure out what machine also still :)18:35
_rubentrue ;)18:35
talntidso, the setup is like this...18:36
talntidubuntu 10.10 host, xen virtualization.. ltsp server (ltsp1), fs1 drbd with fs2 on another physical server18:37
talntidldap for authentication throughout, and it shouldn't matter, but there is an asterisk server hosted on here too...18:37
patdk-wkltsp fs1 are all xen guests?18:37
talntidyes18:37
_rubensure hope not ;)18:37
_rubenouch18:37
patdk-wkyuk18:37
patdk-wkanother layer of issue :)18:38
talntidrecently, the thin clients (ltsp1) have been freezing a lot. has worked great for 2 years... now, ltsp1 can't see fs1 on occasion.. happening more often..18:38
talntidwhen the thin clients freeze, ltsp1 has 70+ loads, and fs1 has 6-7.18:38
patdk-wkyou have lots and lots of stuff to look at18:38
_rubencould very well be that the load reached a tippingpoint .. seen it far too often18:38
_rubencould be a minor increase in load triggering it18:39
talntidthe users have not grown... same amt of users, too..18:39
_rubenperhaps some decided to multitask (more)18:39
talntidperhaps.18:39
patdk-wkI doubt even that18:39
patdk-wk10.10 wasn't out 2 years ago18:40
talntidon vmstat, id = 100 the whole time. :)18:40
talntidno, 2 years ago, it was 8.0418:40
patdk-wkjust it's usage of cpu caches has changed I bet18:40
patdk-wkand could of done this18:40
patdk-wkif you where close already18:40
talntidthe swap to 10.10 was about 4 months ago18:40
_rubeneven more living on the edge eh?18:40
patdk-wkI noticed on my system atleast, switching from a 1m to 2m cpu cache speed it up a crapload18:40
_rubenit was release like 5 weeks ago18:41
burntoutlamphey people, I have a question largely because apache directory has not worked out for me. I am looking for a guide out there that will help me config LDAP on Ubuntu Serv 10.04 to push windows updates and other software to like 20 computers. I failed in my google effort. any ideas? merci!18:41
_rubenburntoutlamp: push windows updates using a linux box? doubt that's gonna work (never looked at it tho)18:42
burntoutlampblast I need an active directory I cannot go on like this -.-18:42
_rubenburntoutlamp: for stuff like that, yes you do indeed18:42
talntidmy bad: root@talon:~# cat /etc/issue18:43
talntidUbuntu 10.04.1 LTS18:43
* burntoutlamp backs up the question trolley18:43
burntoutlampso is it possible to push out windows updates using a linux server to 20 windows laptops -.- merci beaucoup18:43
_rubenburntoutlamp: there might be alternatives, tho i doubt they'd bring any joy to the person admin'ing it ;)18:43
_rubenburntoutlamp: same answer, i highly doubt that, and if there's a way, it sure won't be a pretty one18:44
_rubenhell, even pushing out updates for 20 linux laptops is quite the challenge i bet ;)18:45
burntoutlampI am the one adminning it18:46
* burntoutlamp cries18:46
talntidwhy not allow the machines to update themselves? trying to save the bandwidth?18:47
_rubenburntoutlamp: given that the windows options are quite complex on their own (which doesnt really tell all that much really), i really doubt there's any FOSS alternative capable of the same/similar18:47
talntidtrying to distribute them locally, for speed?18:47
burntoutlampyeah18:48
burntoutlampright now I have to do it manually at each machine18:48
talntidright, but you could set them to auto, or run boot scripts?18:48
talntidif bandwidth is the issue, you can use squid3 to cache the files :)18:49
burntoutlamphmmmmmm18:49
burntoutlampI'd never thought of those alternatives18:49
_rubenthen again, windows update doesn't like proxies much18:50
talntidagreed. when I did that, I set it up at the router level.18:50
talntidso Windows update didn't know the difference. :)18:50
_rubentransparent proxy? that'd work i guess18:50
burntoutlampah very cool18:52
burntoutlampyou guys are giving me some options I have not even thought of. I don't have nor am I able to set up a windows server here18:52
talntidmy vmstat output: any advice? http://pastebin.com/v0JfgEGR18:53
_rubennothing out of the ordinary there18:55
talntidaisexec is using lots of resources, it seems..18:56
talntidserver is still at 7.0 load, with no traffic to it..18:56
talntidI can reset fs1, but in a few hours, it will happen again.18:59

raubvogelGeekyAdam, how do you know it is not running?21:01
GeekyAdamraubvogel: check the code, i did a "ps aux | grep vsftpd" with no results.21:01
raubvogelCould it have started (PID 15984) and then crashed without cleaning up after itself?21:02
Nix82Is anyone familiar with UEC? I have a few quick questions.21:02
raubvogelAs in need to see the logs?21:02

GeekyAdamraubvogel: logs empty :/21:03
raubvogelAfter all, you said it claims to be running21:03
raubvogelUsually that means a lock or pid file somewhere21:03
GeekyAdamraubvogel: what do you mean by "lock or pid file somewhere"?21:03
Nix82UEC Question: Say you have a cloud of 9 servers and you're running a VM within the cloud, if the node that's running that VM has a hardware failure, will UEC automatiacally move that VM to another node with no downtime? If not is that node recoverable without getting the down node back online?21:05

raubvogelGeekyAdam, it does not seem to have the pid stored in a file21:08
raubvogelI find it odd it did not even bother to write to its log file after you tried to start it manually21:09
GeekyAdamraubvogel: i removed vsftpd via apt-get, deleted the conf file just to have a fresh one, reinstalled vsftpd, and again, it says its running at the end of the install, but its not running. and there's no log file. wtf???21:15
GeekyAdamraubvogel: wait, there's no conf file either now...?21:15
GeekyAdamif this were windows id be recommending a restart of the machine right about now...21:16
raubvogelTry to remove it using apt-get remove --purge and then reinstall it.21:16

entropy4anyone know why my ubuntu server wouldnt be reachable by its host name? my windows machines can all ping each other by their computer names, and my ubuntu server can ping the win PCs by name23:22
entropy4is there something related to netbios that i have to configure?23:23
ikoniaentropy4: is there a dns entry for it ?23:25
ikoniaentropy4: are the windows boxes in an AD domain ?23:25
snakeok so i have apache running, but firestarter (my firewall control gui thing) doesn't even show it on the current connections list. does this mean it isn't even getting on the internent?23:27
snake*internet23:27
ikoniasnake: telnet localhost 80 see if it's running23:27
snakewhat do you mean? is that a command?23:28
ikoniasnake: yes23:28
snakeit says that it's connected.23:29
ikoniasnake: ok, so you know it's running, that's a good start23:29
ikoniasnake: what are you firewall rules ?23:29
snakeso then why is it not working? I can't give my friend my external IP and let him view my web server?23:30
entropy4ikonia, i'm not running a DNS server, and no domain either23:30
ikoniasnake: are you using a nat on your router ?23:30
snakewhat is nat?23:30
ikoniaentropy4: the linux machine will need a dns server to resolve host names or an entry in /etc/hosts23:30
ikoniasnake: it translates a private IP address to a public one23:31
snakeok how could i figure out if i have that23:31
entropy4ikonia the linux server has no issue resolving hostnames. its other machines that cannot connect by name to it23:31
ikoniasnake: what is your machines IP address ?23:31
ikoniaentropy4: how is it resolving hostnames without dns or a host file ?23:31
ikoniaentropy4: what name service are you using ?23:31
snakemy internal ip is 10.0.0.523:31
ikoniasnake: is that the IP you are giving to your friend ?23:32
snakeno. i am giving him my external IP23:32
ikoniasnake: ok - so you need to get support for your router to find out how to do NAT on it,23:32
ikoniasnake: also make sure your router is not running a firewall23:32
ikoniasnake: while you are degugging disable the firewall on your ubuntu machine23:32
snakeok23:32
entropy4ikonia not sure if i understand what you mean. the linux box is pointing to my isp's dns server (in /etc/resolv.conf) is there more setup i need to do with /etc/hosts ?23:33
ikoniaentropy4: how does your ubunti machine know the ip/hostname mapping of your windows machines ?23:34
entropy4ikonia sorry actually my router is functioning as a caching dns server.. i forgot23:36
entropy4i think when hosts get an ip from the dhcp (from the routeR) it registers them in dns23:37
ikoniaentropy4: ok, so the ubuntu machine is probably not announcing it's self23:37
entropy4so that might explain that23:37
snakeok i found the NAT section in my router settings. all i have to do is tell it to switch to "Open" right?23:39
ikoniasnake: I don't know - thats up to you to configure your router23:39
entropy4ikonia i guess one way around this would just be to setup static dhcp for my server23:40
snakehmm.. alright thanks for the help anyway.23:40
entropy4i will try it23:40
ikoniaentropy4: simple work around23:40
ikoniaentropy4: you could also configure dhclient to do a dns update, but I don't know what your router expects23:40
entropy4me neither .. its a linksys but its running tomato firmware23:41
