| ratnick | thanks anyway | 05:15 |
| dantalizing | zoopster: is your cloud presentation online somewhere? | 06:07 |

| zoopster | dantalizing: yes...do you need a specific one? | 11:36 |

| === drspeedo is now known as drspeedo|away | ||
| Lupine | ok, this is a simple one...but bothering me as to why I can't figure it out :( | 14:58 |
| Lupine | why does the following command: find /home/dbtest/ -path '*.cache' -prune -o -type f | 14:58 |
| Lupine | continue to report back: /home/dbtest/.cache | 14:58 |
| tiemonster | why not? | 14:59 |
| Lupine | I'm trying to use find command to find all "files only" from a directory, but ignore ("prune") a specific sub-directory | 14:59 |
| Lupine | and I thought that, prune was supposed to take care of that for me | 15:00 |
| Lupine | annoyingly enough, it continue to report back the very directory I'm telling it to ignore. even though I'm specifying "-type f" | 15:02 |
| === drspeedo|away is now known as drspeedo | ||
| Lupine | welp, finally found the proper method: find /home/dbtest/ ! -wholename '*.cache*' -type f | 15:50 |
| tiemonster | cool | 15:51 |
| itnet7 | tiemonster: did you see the e-mail about discounted LPI certifications? | 16:23 |
| itnet7 | Good Morning btw! | 16:23 |
| klutz | good morning all. | 16:26 |
| klutz | Anyone want to help me understand how my router is slower than several DNS servers and how to switch? | 16:27 |
| Slizzurd` | DammitJim: I am using J_r0dd's preclair. | 16:27 |
| itnet7 | Hey there klutz | 16:27 |
| === Slizzurd` is now known as Slizzurd | ||
| itnet7 | klutz: I'm not sure I understand what your asking, I can try and help you after lunch | 16:27 |
| Slizzurd | Slower? | 16:28 |
| klutz | Here is the results... http://pastebin.com/wEP3ucvJ | 16:28 |
| klutz | 10-8 and standing by... | 16:29 |
| DammitJim | sweet! thanks, Slizzurd | 16:30 |
| Slizzurd | DammitJim: Do you have the same phone? | 16:31 |
| tiemonster | itnet7: yes, but can't study that fast | 16:34 |
| tiemonster | klutz: yeah - you can change your DNS settings in your router and get an imperceivable increase in performance | 16:37 |
| DammitJim | I have an N1 | 16:37 |
| DammitJim | I want to get the NS | 16:37 |
| tiemonster | better than NT | 16:38 |
| mhall119 | or the NO | 16:39 |
| tiemonster | klutz: nscd can also give you boost if you're worried about DNS performance | 16:39 |
| klutz | tiemonster> DNS is default right now... | 16:39 |
| tiemonster | are you having resolution performance issues? | 16:39 |
| klutz | http://imagebin.org/127112 | 16:43 |
| klutz | I tried aprogram today and I am trying to understand the results. | 16:44 |
| tiemonster | well I don't understand it, but opendns has pretty clear instructions on changing your DNS | 16:53 |
| klutz | opendns.org? | 16:54 |
| tiemonster | http://www.opendns.com/ | 16:55 |
| mhall119 | use google's dns servers isntead | 16:55 |
| klutz | ifconfig does not show the DNS that I am using... Is there a command for that? | 16:55 |
| mhall119 | /etc/resolv.conf has your dns servers | 16:56 |
| klutz | Cat that location? | 16:56 |
| klutz | nameserver 192.168.1.1 this is my router... | 16:58 |
| tiemonster | what the? | 16:59 |
| tiemonster | why? | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | okay, so your router has the list of actual DNS servers | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | tiemonster: many home routers do this | 16:59 |
| tiemonster | klutz: yeah - you'll have to change it at the router if you want custom DNS | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | you can change it on your box | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | then it'll just bypass the router all togther for DNS | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | http://pastebin.com/8VjiZd0Z is my /etc/resolv.conf | 17:00 |
| klutz | you can change it on your box... You mean Router? I have several comuters in the house... | 17:02 |
| mhall119 | you can change it on the router, and it'll affect every box in your internal network, or on the individual boxes themselves | 17:03 |
| * klutz thinks I am in over my head... | 17:04 | |
| Slizzurd | DammitJim: As do I but I can't justify that much money on a little ol phone | 17:05 |
| DammitJim | i know | 17:05 |
| tiemonster | klutz: not that bad | 17:06 |
| Slizzurd | DammitJim: I would consider it for my girlfriend to replace her iphone since she has unlimited data and then I could really do soemthing with it. | 17:06 |
| DammitJim | so, on AT&T? | 17:07 |
| DammitJim | unlocked power | 17:07 |
| Slizzurd | Yeah | 17:07 |
| Slizzurd | ? | 17:07 |
| klutz | Tech Republic put out this article today... http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/networking/?p=3580&tag=nl.e101 | 17:07 |
| klutz | I was trying to see if I could make it happen. | 17:07 |
| tiemonster | sure. log into the router. | 17:08 |
| tiemonster | what kind of router is it? | 17:09 |
| klutz | <tiemonster> I am not sure as to where to put these numbers into the router... I know I will hear about it if I break what is not broken.. | 17:09 |
| tiemonster | you won't | 17:10 |
| klutz | N14 net gear... Give me a minute and I can get you a screen shot and pist it to imagebin. | 17:10 |
| klutz | oops post... Fatfingers... | 17:10 |
| tiemonster | first, find me the model number - http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/10727/session/L3NpZC9wblFJZTVoaw%3D%3D | 17:11 |
| Slizzurd | DammitJim: I don't see why everyone bashes AT&T. They were great in the mountains of Alabama and still great here in flat Florida | 17:13 |
| DammitJim | nothing against them | 17:14 |
| klutz | http://imagebin.org/127117 | 17:15 |
| klutz | WGR614v7 | 17:16 |
| tiemonster | do you have any way to do screen sharing? | 17:18 |
| ShawnR | Slizzurd: AT&T used to be great, before bellsouth bought them out, now verizon is king in FL | 17:18 |
| tiemonster | klutz: do you have any way to do screen sharing? | 17:19 |
| klutz | I can install team viewer... | 17:19 |
| klutz | just take a minute... | 17:19 |
| tiemonster | or you could give me shell access to your computer, and I could change it for you! :-) | 17:20 |
| ShawnR | klutz: you just need to say manual DNS, and type in the numbers you wanna use... | 17:20 |
| ShawnR | what special deal are you trying to do? | 17:20 |
| tiemonster | oh duh - it was right in front of my fave | 17:20 |
| tiemonster | *face | 17:20 |
| klutz | Go faster. | 17:20 |
| tiemonster | click "use these DNS servers" | 17:21 |
| tiemonster | then put in 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 | 17:21 |
| tiemonster | save, and you're all good | 17:21 |
| ShawnR | ^^ | 17:21 |
| ShawnR | that's why i was wondering what was so hard about this :P | 17:21 |
| ShawnR | although, level 3 DNS was faster for me than google | 17:21 |
| ShawnR | you might wanna run the dns benchmark and then use those results | 17:22 |
| tiemonster | we're talking ms here | 17:22 |
| ShawnR | right | 17:22 |
| ShawnR | single digit ms | 17:22 |
| tiemonster | Google is fine. He justs wants to play with custom DNS in general. | 17:22 |
| ShawnR | yeah | 17:23 |
| klutz | ok.... yes... Go faster... | 17:23 |
| ShawnR | :P | 17:23 |
| klutz | i use Mint... | 17:23 |
| tiemonster | I noticed | 17:23 |
| tiemonster | tried not to say anything | 17:23 |
| tiemonster | ;-P | 17:23 |
| tiemonster | klutz: did you make the change? | 17:23 |
| klutz | Changing settings as we type... | 17:25 |
| klutz | Why not use these numbers? | 17:25 |
| klutz | ttp://imagebin.org/127112 | 17:26 |
| klutz | http://imagebin.org/127112 | 17:26 |
| ShawnR | ooh, those are some really bad results... lol | 17:26 |
| ShawnR | 227ms to 8.8.4.4? ouch | 17:27 |
| klutz | I just found this program today... I do not know if I want to trust its results yet. | 17:29 |
| klutz | ok changed... Do Ineed to reboot? | 17:29 |
| tiemonster | no - just restart networking | 17:30 |
| tiemonster | sudo service networking restart | 17:30 |
| tiemonster | or sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 17:30 |
| tiemonster | that will refresh your IP and change your local DNS settings | 17:30 |
| ShawnR | klutz: steve gibson (of gibson research) is a trusted man, and the program DNS benchmark is truthworthy | 17:31 |
| klutz | I tried that one also... Runs fine in Wine... | 17:31 |
| tiemonster | I would trust the min over the avg | 17:31 |
| tiemonster | the max for all is 3500 | 17:31 |
| klutz | I have tried both programs from the following Tech Republic article... | 17:32 |
| klutz | http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/networking/?p=3580&tag=nl.e101 | 17:32 |
| ShawnR | yeah, dns benchmark is the only one you need to run | 17:33 |
| klutz | It was much faster in getting the results... The other program took about 5 minutes to get results... | 17:35 |
| klutz | dns benchmark shows my router as being fastest. 192.168.1.1...was at the top. | 17:36 |
| klutz | http://imagebin.org/127120 | 17:41 |
| mhall119 | klutz: it may be pulling from cache | 17:43 |
| klutz | Cache is one of the things GRCs program tests. | 17:46 |
| mhall119 | local cache I would assume | 17:47 |
| mhall119 | I'm not sure how it would know if your router is caching | 17:47 |
| klutz | Maybe from Firefox? | 17:49 |
| klutz | Firefox cache? | 17:50 |
| klutz | http://imagebin.org/127122 | 17:53 |
| klutz | seems a little faster... | 17:54 |
