| aetaric | booting a thin-client ubuntu 10.04, it starts eth0 up, and then my cisco router(dhcp server) spews errors about malformed option 61. any ideas about how to solve? | 00:01 |
| twb | What's option 61? | 00:01 |
| aetaric | it's the client ident | 00:02 |
| econnell | client-identifier | 00:02 |
| twb | As in send host-name ? | 00:02 |
| econnell | It is expected that this field will typically contain a hardware type | 00:03 |
| econnell | and hardware address, but this is not required. Current legal values | 00:03 |
| econnell | for hardware types are defined in [22]. | 00:03 |
| twb | So cisco appears to be more prissy than the RFC | 00:03 |
| aetaric | pretty much | 00:03 |
| aetaric | this only happens when i boot a thin client. | 00:04 |
| twb | FWIW, netbooting Works For Me, with 10.04 desktops and 8.04/dnsmasq as the server, and intel PXE ROMs. | 00:04 |
| twb | aetaric: this is happening before pxelinux loads, right? | 00:04 |
| aetaric | no | 00:04 |
| aetaric | this is post pxelinux | 00:04 |
| twb | OK, so pxelinux.0 loads -- does it get as far as displaying a menu and loading the kernel and ramdisk? | 00:05 |
| aetaric | yes | 00:05 |
| twb | OK, so the bad DHCP request is somewhere within Ubuntu itself? | 00:05 |
| aetaric | right | 00:05 |
| twb | How did you generate the netboot image -- live-build? | 00:06 |
| aetaric | i followed the guide | 00:07 |
| aetaric | ltsp-build-client | 00:08 |
| aetaric | from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThinClientHowto | 00:08 |
| aetaric | still works all the way up to 10.04 | 00:08 |
| aetaric | it worked when my tftp and nfs server was also a dhcp server | 00:09 |
| twb | Ah, LTSP | 00:09 |
| twb | All I can suggest is that you 1) packet sniff and examine the bogus flow; and 2) try building a smaller image | 00:10 |
| aetaric | is there a newer/better way to go about this? | 00:10 |
| twb | You might be able to replace ISC dhclient with some other dhclient. | 00:10 |
| twb | aetaric: well, AFAICT the problem is that your client is sending something that Cisco have decided not to accept, so ultimately you have to either fix the Cisco or workaround it in the client | 00:11 |
| aetaric | kk. | 00:11 |
| aetaric | have another dhclient you recommend? | 00:11 |
| twb | Not really | 00:12 |
| twb | aptitude search ?tag(client)?tag(dhcp) or so | 00:12 |

| Frenk_ | whats the irc command to read the chanell topic eg /topic | 00:28 |
| Frenk_ | read /topic | 00:29 |
| Frenk_ | anyone suggestions? | 00:29 |
| Frenk_ | [ if you're joining for the first time, or are new to irc, the first thing you'll want to do is read the channel topic (/topic) ] but how do i do that? | 00:31 |
| hallyn_ | Frenk_: just typing '/topic' doesn't work for you? | 00:33 |
| hallyn_ | Frenk_: which irc client are you using? | 00:34 |
| Frenk_ | Insufficient arguments for command. | 00:34 |
| Frenk_ | webchat.freenode.net | 00:34 |
| Frenk_ | qwebirc | 00:35 |
| Frenk_ | #topic | 00:35 |
| Frenk_ | nope | 00:35 |
| shauno | it's often displayed at the top of the channel window, or when you first enter. /topic is meant to return it tho (obviously not your fault if it doesn't ..) | 00:36 |
| The_Tick | it's your fault for using a bad client | 00:37 |
| hallyn_ | Frenk_: maybe /topic #channelname? | 00:37 |
| Frenk_ | 00:48 | |
| Frenk_ | !topic | 00:48 |
| ubottu | Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic | 00:48 |
| twb | Just have him ask the vendor about it | 00:49 |
| aetaric | twb: does it when i remove isc, install a replacement, and rebuild the ramdisk | 00:51 |
| aetaric | so, it might be a kernel issue | 00:51 |
| twb | aetaric: 11:10 <twb> All I can suggest is that you 1) packet sniff and examine the bogus flow; and 2) try building a smaller image | 00:51 |
| aetaric | yeah | 00:52 |
| aetaric | define smaller image... | 00:52 |
| twb | less things | 00:52 |
| aetaric | it loads it via nfs :p | 00:52 |
| twb | So it gets as far as NFS? | 00:53 |
| aetaric | nope | 00:53 |
| aetaric | kernel can't get an address to connect to nfs | 00:53 |
| aetaric | i have it load the kernel and initrd.img via tftp | 00:53 |
| twb | So the problem is in the ramdisk | 00:54 |
| aetaric | ok, how do i change how the ramdisk gets a dhcp lease? | 00:57 |
| twb | You can't without a lot of fucking about | 00:59 |
| twb | It'll be easier to replace the cisco IMO | 00:59 |
| twb | Or at least call Cisco and ask them how to tell it to ignore option 61 or so | 01:00 |
| pting | is there a command to preseed user/group ids? i want to sync up all the system user/group ids | 01:07 |
| twb | pting: that's called "centralized authentication" | 01:07 |
| twb | Oh, sorry, *system* accounts | 01:07 |
| twb | I don't know any way to get those synced, other than 1) put them in your central auth (e.g. LDAP); or 2) ensure that you install packages in the same order on every host. | 01:08 |
| twb | Neither of which are very nice | 01:08 |
| pting | twb, i see... i was thinking of using puppet to pre-create all the groups and users before installing the packages | 01:08 |
| twb | I suppose that could work | 01:09 |
| pting | heh, not sure if that's the brightest of ideas though | 01:09 |
| twb | Note that purging packages will often try to delete the system account | 01:09 |
| pting | i would hate to install a package i forgot to create users for beforehand | 01:09 |
| twb | So if someone purges one package and installs another, the new one might get the UID that you wanted for your system account | 01:10 |
| twb | But that's probably an unlikely occurrence | 01:10 |
| pting | twb, thanks, i'll just have to pick one.. i'm most interested in ensuring services like mysql and www-data are the same to read from nfs shares and such | 01:19 |
| twb | pting: many of them are standardized in base-files | 01:21 |
| twb | Sorry, base-passwd | 01:22 |
| twb | www-data is, at least | 01:23 |
| pting | o.O, so i could add puppet code to append to /usr/share/base-passwd/passwd.master and grouip.master before installing packages? | 01:23 |
| twb | #define DEFAULT_PASSWD_MASTER"/usr/share/base-passwd/passwd.master" | 01:23 |
| twb | #define DEFAULT_GROUP_MASTER"/usr/share/base-passwd/group.master" | 01:23 |
| twb | Dunno, try it in your test lab :P | 01:24 |
| pting | o.O i definitely will, thanks | 01:24 |
| pting | twb, so what's the recommended ubuntian way of assigning manual user/group ids? start from the max id for the segment and go descending from there? | 01:33 |
| pting | like start from system user id 999 and go down? | 01:34 |
| twb | pting: update-passwd seems to apply to global IDs (0-99) | 01:36 |
| pting | twb, hah, no!!! that solution seems like the right way to go though | 01:37 |
| Noobster | is there any way to use apt-cache to tell you the version #? | 02:01 |
| pting | twb, looks like it still works for system user ids.. i added mysql as 999, both as uid/gid... ran update-passwd and it was added | 02:01 |
| Pici | Noobster: version of what? A package? | 02:01 |
| Noobster | yes | 02:01 |
| Pici | Noobster: apt-cache show packagename has a Version line. | 02:02 |
| Noobster | thanx! | 02:02 |
| Pici | apt-cache policy will show you what versions exist in the repositories you have in your sources.list | 02:03 |
| twb | pting: eeeexcelent | 02:05 |
| pting | twb, so it looks like update-passwd doesn't change uid/gids if they already exist | 02:08 |
| twb | That would be about right | 02:08 |
| twb | It's intended to set up defaults, not clobber users' changes to those defaults | 02:09 |
| pting | ya, that's probably for the best =)... i'll just write some checks to notify me if these user ids are out of sync on my servers | 02:09 |

| dbowlby | hello all! | 03:28 |
| dbowlby | I have a ubuntu server running KVM | 03:28 |
| dbowlby | I'm using bridging | 03:28 |
| dbowlby | for some reason, after setting it up, I can't communicate to the internet (through the default gateway) | 03:28 |
| dbowlby | http://pastebin.com/siC29Sgj | 03:28 |

| dbowlby | my netstat -r and cat of /etc/network/interfaces is in the pastebin | 03:29 |
| twb | dbowlby: pastebin "ip r" format, please. | 03:29 |
| twb | For bonus points, all of "ip l; ip a; ip r' | 03:29 |

| dbowlby | bonus points: http://pastebin.com/BM1gpnqP | 03:30 |
| twb | Well, the first problem is that you've configured BOTH br0 and eth0 as 192.168.1/24 | 03:30 |
| twb | Meaning that on a per-packet basis, it'll pick either br0 or eth0 at random | 03:31 |
| dbowlby | ok, I can see that | 03:32 |
| dbowlby | so br0 should be a different network? | 03:32 |
| dbowlby | I want my VMs to be on the 192.168.1.0 network | 03:32 |
| twb | ifdown eth0; then remove "auto eth0" from interfaces | 03:32 |
| twb | If you're bridging across eth0, you shouldn't be referring to eth0 directly | 03:32 |
| dbowlby | if I bring eth0 down, I loose connectivity to the box | 03:34 |
| twb | Then remove "auto eth0" from interfaces and simply reboot | 03:34 |
| dbowlby | ok, let me try that | 03:34 |
| twb | Currently you're trying to run the same network both over raw eth0 and over the bridge br0 | 03:35 |
| twb | You need to only have one of those -- probably the latter | 03:35 |
| dbowlby | lol probably? | 03:35 |
| twb | Note that (obviously) you'll need to connect to .10 instead of .230 | 03:35 |
| dbowlby | as feared, now I can't access the box | 03:36 |
| dbowlby | twb, thanks, I finally got my console hooked up and found that the damn reboot failed | 03:44 |
| twb | Sorry | 03:44 |
| dbowlby | twb, now I can access my box and it appears to be working properly | 03:45 |
| dbowlby | twb, no I'm sorry hehe | 03:45 |
| dbowlby | this would definitely explain my connectivity issues to the VMs :) | 03:46 |
| twb | What I described is pretty much what *I* use | 03:48 |
| twb | Maybe your router (on .27) doesn't know how to get to .10? | 03:48 |
| twb | Or maybe there's another host on .10 and they're fighting | 03:49 |
| dbowlby | twb, nah it's working now | 03:49 |
| dbowlby | twb, I commented out the auto | 03:50 |
| dbowlby | on eth0 | 03:50 |
| dbowlby | twb, the whole reason I was looking at this was because I was having insane ping times to my VMs | 03:51 |
| dbowlby | twb, then I noticed I couldn't get out through my gateway | 03:51 |
| twb | dbowlby: I bloody told you to comment out "auth eth0" | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, after I took out that auto eth0 I could ping outside my gateway | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, I know, and I did, but I rebooted and the box didn't come back up | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, I didn't have a console, so didn't know why | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, after I hooked up the console, I found the system at a crash screen | 03:52 |
| twb | Is this a server, or is NetworkManager installed? | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, after rebooting it, it worked great :) | 03:52 |
| dbowlby | twb, it's ubuntu server with the virtualization stuff installed | 03:53 |
| twb | Please confirm that "dpkg -l network-manager" has "un" in the lefthand column | 03:53 |
| dbowlby | no packages found | 03:55 |
| twb | Good enough | 03:55 |
| twb | I don't know what's wrong | 03:55 |
| twb | I assume bridge-utils is installed? | 03:55 |
| dbowlby | it says ii | 03:56 |
| twb | What does "brctl show" have to say? | 03:56 |
| dbowlby | bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces | 03:56 |
| dbowlby | br0 8000.406186e288dc no eth0 | 03:56 |
| dbowlby | vnet0 | 03:56 |
| dbowlby | virbr0 8000.000000000000 yes | 03:56 |
| dbowlby | my pings are still all over the place to this darn windows vm | 03:57 |
| dbowlby | even from the host itself | 03:57 |
| dbowlby | goes from 1ms all the way up to 400ms | 03:57 |
| twb | That might simply be because the VM is sleeping while idle | 03:59 |
| dbowlby | twb, a continuous ping? | 03:59 |
| dbowlby | seems to be better | 04:01 |
| dbowlby | aight, well, hehe, thanks a lot twb! | 04:01 |
| * twb shrugs | 04:02 | |
| dbowlby | twb, I think you're on to something with the idle, don't really see the delay with my rhel vms | 04:04 |

| twb | What is the difference between x, * and ! in the passwd and shadow databases? | 08:25 |
| twb | AFAICT x means "ask shadow", and ! and * in shadow are identical | 08:26 |
| \sh | twb: * <- disabled account x <- encrypted password in /etc/shadow (and eventually is ! another indicator with the same meaning of x) | 08:38 |
| \sh | s/disabled/deactivated/ | 08:38 |
| twb | I'm a bit confused as to why some accounts are ! and some are * | 08:39 |
| twb | I *suspect* it's just a matter of some being there when "shadowconfig on" first runs, and some being created after -- but I don't want to assume that when my dodgy thing sets them all to * | 08:39 |
| \sh | twb: man 5 shadow ;) "If the password field contains some string that is not valid result of crypt(3), for instance ! or *, the user will not be able to use a unix password to log in, subject to pam(7)." | 08:41 |
| twb | I don't trust it | 08:41 |
| twb | For example passwd(8) locks using a ! explicitly | 08:41 |
| twb | So so passwd --unlock presumably works by removing the ! | 08:42 |
| twb | These are all system accounts so it PROBABLY doesn't matter | 08:42 |
| twb | Yep | 08:44 |
| twb | adduser --disabled-password uses a *, but --disabled-login uses a ! | 08:44 |
| twb | So obviously su and/or sshd treat them differently | 08:44 |

| cap_00 | anyone know how to check user access logs for a samba file server? i'm trying to track down which of my users might have deleted a folder | 15:50 |
| Psi-Jack | Alright. So here's a question. For some reason, everytime I ifup/ifdown lo:X, which are VIPs for several clustered servers in 10.04.1, open-iscsi restarts. I need this reaction to stop. open-iscsi seems to be effected by anything in upstart resulting in the 'networking' event. | 15:51 |
| Psi-Jack | Looking at /etc/init.d/open-iscsi, Required-Stop has networking in it, but does upstart even care about lsb-init that way at all? | 15:52 |
| RoAkSoAx | it doesnt | 15:52 |
| Psi-Jack | Okay, so why is it open-iscsi is being effected by ifup/ifdown for loopback network devices? Everytime it does this knee-jerk reaction, it completely breaks my gfs2 /home mount that's on iscsi because it completely stops and restarts open-iscsi causing a stale and broken lock. Only fix for that is a total cluster restart. | 15:54 |
| Psi-Jack | Aha! | 15:57 |
| Psi-Jack | It's in /etc/network/if-down.d/open-iscsi | 15:57 |
| Psi-Jack | It ONLY checks if the interface is lo, and not lo:* | 15:58 |

| wng- | is there a way to delete any rule that originates from a certain ip with ufw? | 17:05 |

| cap_00 | this might be a weird question, are partitions the only thing that can be mounted? | 20:44 |
| cap_00 | if i wanted to add a HD to my system and mount it to two different places in the system the only way i'd do that would be creating two seperate partitions? | 20:45 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: I'm rescheduling everything right now (because of moving, graduation, etc etc). But I'm gonna start working in full with PowerNap this week, to hopefully finish modifying the algorithm for the integration of the Monitors. | 20:46 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: before Xmas, which should also involve the monitors functional | 20:47 |
| cap_00 | i just don't want to have to determine ahead of time how big each partition is on the drive, i'd rather have both mount points using the full space and let them fill up the drive at the same time | 20:47 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: no you can mount file system images | 20:48 |
| cap_00 | hmmm and those can grow? | 20:48 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: you can also resize partitions | 20:49 |
| cap_00 | yes, but i'd like to make it as easy to manage as possible | 20:49 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: once we have BTRFS, that will be easy. Until then.. partitioning everything onto one big / is probably still the simplest answer. | 20:50 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: you can use LVM to manage the physical disks if you do that | 20:50 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: with LVM you just ad the physical space to the pool, and then extend the FS onto it as needed. | 20:50 |
| cap_00 | hmmm | 20:50 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: but, shrinking the FS is hard | 20:50 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: look into LVM.. I think it will do what you want.. but just know that shrinking one logical volume, and the filesystem that rides on top of it, is not simple. | 20:52 |
| SpamapS | cap_00: though it can be done | 20:52 |

| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: so MEM must be getting set to 384 somewhere else in the code | 22:44 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: before the len(MEM) | 22:44 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: apparently i removed the code... which seems extrange cause I remember a related issue when determing memory automatically... I guess I must have removed it... I;ll get it back | 22:44 |
| fluvvell | i0nic, ssh-agent ? | 22:46 |
| pting | is there a way to check a directory's permission to ensure it's 000 without first unmounting it? | 22:47 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: did you report a bug yet? | 22:50 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: neverming just got it | 22:50 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: yup | 22:50 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: fixed in the trunk ;) thansk for reporting bugs sir!! I think you are the biggest bug reporter :P | 22:52 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: hehe | 22:52 |
| qman__ | dany, those will do fine for linux clients, but windows, not so much | 22:53 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: also, while you're in there, add a stanza in that if-block to set MEM=1024 if total memory > 2000000 | 22:53 |
| qman__ | the only system going for full windows compatibility is samba4 | 22:53 |
| lenios | pting, what do you mean without first unmounting it? | 22:58 |
| lenios | ls -l should show it | 22:59 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: done! pushed to trunk already | 22:59 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: sweet; you gonna upload to natty? | 22:59 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: I could do it now if you like? | 23:01 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: sure, i like bitesize uploads ;-) | 23:01 |
| kirkland | RoAkSoAx: makes it easier to spot regressions | 23:01 |
| clayd | can someone point me in the direction to som documentation explaining server set up for multi host, multi client web servers? Like laughing squic, or one of the other big hosting groups would use. | 23:02 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: indeed! Ok then, will do so now! otherwise it will prolly be sitting there till I finish with the improvements and GRUB thingy | 23:03 |
| pting | lenios, i want to ensure a directory is empty and the permissions on it is set to 000 before mounting; however, if it's already mounted, i want to check to make sure the permissions on it is 000 without having to unmount it first... if that makes sense | 23:05 |
| lenios | ls -l should do it | 23:06 |
| pting | the intent is to make sure the directory isn't writable unless it's mounted | 23:07 |
| RoAkSoAx | kirkland: done | 23:11 |
| lenios | unless it's mounted? | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | normally easy | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | umount, chown/chmod the path | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | mount it | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | Ive done that on a few systems | 23:14 |
| lenios | what do you chmod if it's unmounted? | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | the path you would mount it to | 23:14 |
| patdk-wk | whole paths and crap can exist under a mount | 23:15 |
| patdk-wk | normally not accesable | 23:15 |
| lenios | i see | 23:15 |
| lenios | it's the same if it's mounted | 23:15 |
| patdk-wk | like, for an encrypted homedir can work like that on my laptop | 23:15 |
| patdk-wk | I have my .ssh path for login keys on it, but if I mount my home dir, it overlays it | 23:16 |
| patdk-wk | and I get my ssh private keys and everything else | 23:16 |
| patdk-wk | maybe it won't work on the mount directory itself | 23:16 |
| patdk-wk | but only subdirs of the mount dir | 23:17 |
