progre55hi guys. how do you set a machine date to UTC? now it's on GMT and I have two servers, but the dates on them differ by 1 hour.. which is causing problems..00:33
shaunoGMT and UTC aren't an hour apart.  there's a chance your problems lay elsewhere00:34
progre55shauno: no no, I'm on the swedish date, which is +100:35
progre55so one of my servers has the swedish time, another has the GMT time.. and now I need to sync them00:35
shaunoah, ok.  tzselect should walk you thru picking a zone00:36
shaunotell a lie, that appears to be user-level.  seems you want dpkg-reconfigure tzdata00:37
guest9187jolly joööy00:37
progre55ah yeah, thanks a lot00:37
shauno(or just edit /etc/timezone).  I don't change timezone often, so a little rusty :)00:38
progre55shauno: no no, reconfiguring tzdata worked fine :) thanks a lot00:39

guest9187Problem, The volume Filesystem root has only 895MB disc space remaining?01:24
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto and read the part about holding.01:26
jeeves_mossjmarsden, I need to know the package name though to be able to pin it01:26
jmarsdenguest9187: Why is that a problem?  How much free space do you *need* in /01:26
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: dpkg -l | grep php   will display all of them related to PHP :)01:27
jeeves_mossthanks.01:27
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: You're welcome.01:27
jeeves_mossit's only showing up with 5.201:28
jeeves_moss*5.301:28
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: well, because right now you have 5.3 packages installed, right?  So first install the older ones, then hold those :)01:28
jeeves_mossjmarsden, ok, thanks.  all I know is that 5.3 broke everything.01:29
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: I'd be interested to know why, it works for most people :)01:29
jeeves_mossmost of the stuff I have dosn't work with 5.3, and the devs are scrambling to fix it01:29
jeeves_mossjmarsden, have a look @ moseley.ca/crm/ and/or www.moseley.ca/project/01:30
jmarsdenSo: why are you displaying errors to the user on a production site?  Turn that off, run, then read your apache logs and fix each bug reported in them.  That's not "breaks everything", that's "I didn't configure PHP for a production server", I think?01:31
mrothhhis thier a app to create a raid 1 software raid 1 in ubuntu-server01:32
jeeves_mossjmarsden, lol, this is my personal box, and I crashed 8.04 during an upgrade, so this is a long process of "fixing" everything01:32
jmarsdenmrothhh: The installer can do that :)01:32
mrothhhfor the data drive01:32
mrothhhafter you install the OS01:32
jeeves_mosslol, thank god all my web data/databses were on another drive01:33
jmarsdenmrothhh: You can use mdadm to create RAID arrays on a live system, yes.  It's not as easy and pretty as doing it at install time, but works exactly as well once you are done.01:34
JanCmrothhh: udisks can do that, or you can do it "manually" with mdadm01:35
mrothhhdoes udisk still use mdadm01:35
mrothhhk thanks01:35
guest9187jmarsden: It was a Warning pop-up i got. Dont know how mutch free space i need. Just done a new installation of Ubuntu. After a while a got this again01:36
jmarsdenguest9187: If you installed with only a single partition, so *everything* is on / then it is maybe a bit low... this *is* a server, right?  So you know enough to manage a server, and define partition sizes, etc?  That "popup" sounds like you are running Ubuntu DEsktop, in which case this isn't really the right place for you to be asking for help with that.01:37
guest9187jmarsden: Wrong channel. Sorry, thanks anyway!01:39
jmarsdenguest9187: No problem.  If you are running a desktop version of Ubuntu, you should try asking in #ubuntu .01:40
jmarsdenHmmm, jeeves_moss disappeared...01:41
* jmarsden decides that since I'm answering questions, I should /back01:41
guest9187jmarsden: But this desktop is running like i server whitout my premission.01:42
jmarsdenguest9187: How so?  It runs software you did not install?  That would be strange indeed.01:43
guest9187jmarsden: I got that answer on  a site that my computer was running like a server. Not a installed Ubuntu-server.01:45
mrothhhwere do I get udisk01:46
jmarsdenguest9187: You are not making sense.  A machine you installed Ubuntu Desktop on will have a GUI and act like a desktop machine.01:46
jmarsdenmrothhh: sudo apt-get install udisks   # the s matters01:46
mrothhhand it cli01:46
mrothhhk will do01:47
jmarsdenmrothhh: There is a corresponding udisks-doc package you may also want to install and read.  And of course it is command-line based, this is #ubuntu-server :)01:48

jeeves_mosswhat shell should I have on FTP users under ProFTPd?  I can't have the users accessing shell though!03:48
jmarsdenIt's been years (FTP with usernames is totally insecure, passwords in the clear, etc) but I think you used to be able to add /etc/false to the file /etc/shells and then use that for the "shell" of such users.  BUT I'd suggest you reconsider using named FTP accounts, it is 2011 and the Internet is a dangerous place.  We do not send passwords across it in the clear.  Ever.03:51
KurtKrautjeeves_moss, I think you should consider very seriously what jmarsden said. I share hist point of view.03:53
jeeves_mossjmarsden, I'm trying to get the logins started, then I'll move to SSH03:53
jeeves_mossI have some dumb web baised software that needs FTP on it (don't ask)03:53
jeeves_mossKurtKraut, this is what I'm getting in the log file http://pastebin.com/zWbrdPY603:53
jmarsdenRewrite it or find an alternative.  Seriously.03:54
jeeves_mosswell, I can't do that right now, so any "patch" ideas for the time being?03:55
jmarsdenI just gave you one: add /bin/false to the bottom of /etc/shells and then set the vsftpd users shells to be /bin/false03:56
jmarsden(Oops, I said /etc/false first time -- thinko.  The correct path is /bin/false )03:56
jeeves_mosskk, thanks03:57
jmarsdenanother "patch idea" would be to restrict FTP access to only a few knows source IPs, those of the users concerned, using iptables.03:57
jeeves_mosstrue.03:58
jeeves_mossI think I should just rip this server apart and start fresh03:58
jeeves_mossit's a serious mess, but I don't have the time to screw with it03:58
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: If you have a decent workstation (plenty of RAM, etc.), then you could consider setting up a virtual machine within it running Ubuntu Server, configre that (taking good notes!), then when you have learned what you need to learn and the testbed works, scrap it and install the real thing, following your earlier notes carefully, either in another VM or on dedicated hardware.04:01
jeeves_mossjmarsden, this is true.  My biggest issue is that this is the largest pile of storage that I have.  I may just wait a month, and buy a 2Tb external disk, then clean the server totally off, and then start from scratch.  Once that happens, then I can put stuff "away" properly instead of just trying to find space for everything04:02
jeeves_mossin fact, I think that's what I'm going to do.  It's getting to the point where everything is a mess and needs to be cleaned up04:03
jmarsdenjeeves_moss: 2TB drives have a reputation for being much less reliable than 1TB drives, at least where I work... sometimes buying the "Bleeding edge" will hurt you... do you absolutely need 2TB?04:04
jeeves_mossjmarsden, it won't be for a production box.  I just need something large to "dump" everything on, sort through it, etc.  There is a LOT of uplication on this box that needs to be sorted out.  So, instead of swapping a lot of smaller drives around trying to "juggle" everything, it would be easier to just "dump" it all on one external, then sort it04:05
jmarsdenOK, it's your choice of course :)04:06
jeeves_mosswell, once it's sorted, it can go back on the smaller drive!04:06
jmarsdenOK.  BTW, man fdupes -- you don't need everything on one physical drive to use it...04:07
jeeves_mossI use fdupes for our image collection04:08
jeeves_moss....  and now, apparently, my NAS has dropped off-line.  grrrr, today is just getting sooooo much better04:09
jeeves_mossscrew it, to the basement I go!  brb04:09
HypoglybeticI need some advice/Information about VNC.  If I have 3 PCs running VNC and I am outside of my network and want to connect how do I choose which PC I want to connect to? Do I configure a custom port, set  up a VNC server, or what? I'm not looking for the how to but just the suggestion on which path to take.04:45
jmarsdenEach on a different port should be straightforward, yes.04:46
jmarsdenBTW Ubuntu server does not have a GUI and so does not, generally speaking, run VNC ...04:47
Hypoglybeticand then simply memorize each PC/port?04:47
jmarsdenSure.  If you want to get fancy and set up a single gateway machine that prompts you for which PC you wish to connect to and makes a VNC connection back to the one you select... well, that might be a lot of work...04:48
HypoglybeticYeah, thats what I thought.  Memorizing the port seems easy.  Or writing it on a card in my wallet. Thanks for the advice.04:49
jmarsdenYes.  If you have three PCs, named  PC0, PC1 and PC2 you can use ports 5900, 5901 and 5902 and the correspondence should be fairly easy to remember :)04:49
oljashow to change locale language to en_US.UTF-8?04:56
jmarsdenoljas: dpkg-reconfigure locales   # should do it.04:58
oljasit just says: Generating locales... en_US.UTF-8... up-to-date en_ZA.UTF-8... up-to-date etc. Generation complete. nothing changes,05:00
jmarsdenoljas: OK, now you can edit the file /etc/default/locale to say what you want the defaults to be.05:01
oljasgreat, thanks!05:02
jmarsdenoljas: You're welcome.  You might need to reboot the machine for it to re-read that file...05:03

airtonixchrislabeard, can you ping the avahi hostname of your mac machines ?08:12
chrislabeardI can try08:13
chrislabeardactually it looks like I can't08:13
airtonixwaht about pinging labeard.local from the ubuntu machine ?08:14
chrislabeardyeah that works08:14
airtonixok i think you need to get bonjour running properly on your macs then08:14
airtonixmaybe first try openeing port 5353 on them ?08:14
chrislabeardWell they see my other macs08:14
airtonixthen try pinging other mac .local addresses from each mac08:15
chrislabeardyeah that works08:15
airtonixdid you modify /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf at any point ?08:16
chrislabeardI don't think so08:17
airtonixcould you pastebin it ?08:17
chrislabeardYeha08:17
chrislabeardhttp://pastebin.com/Z3GQRbLN08:19
chrislabeardKinda weird that I can't ping the macs from the ubuntu box08:25

airtonixchrislabeard, i assume this is the guide you used before ? http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/ubuntu-as-mac-file-server-and-time-machine-volume/08:31
oljasmy lepoard can,t see any "afp on ubuntuserver" names, it just don`t associate it with ip or machine name, o something like that. so i always use just <name replace-wildcards="yes">%h</name>. And try use Bounjour Browser.app it shows all advertisement on the network.08:32
chrislabeardairtonix: http://denniswever.dyndns.org/blog/?p=30608:32
chrislabeardairtonix: but I think its pretty much the same08:33
airtonixchrislabeard, 1) watch -d -n1 "tail /var/logs/syslog" 2) open another terminal window : watch -d -n1 "tail /var/log/ufw.log" 3) sudo service avahi-daemon restart 4) ping ubuntu from macs wait for fail 5) ping macs from ubuntu, wait for fail. 5) vis two log watchers for strangeness08:36
airtonixchrislabeard, wait, that ufw watch is supposed to be something like : watch -d -n1 "tail /var/log/ufw.log | grep BLOCK"08:37
chrislabeardmmk08:38
airtonixi can't think of anything else at the moment sorry08:40
geekbridoes anybody happen to have a php-fpm init script they want to pastebin for me so i can have one too :)08:40
chrislabeardI think ufw has been off this whole time cause now I can't connect ssh08:41
airtonixsudo ufw allow in on eth0 to any port 2208:42
airtonixyou'll probably also want to allow ports for any other services you need08:43

chrislabeardIts AT&T UVERSE09:39
mrmistYou'd have to ask them, or check their docs for email config.09:39
mrmistthen - http://www.howtoforge.com/postfix_relaying_through_another_mailserver09:40
chrislabeardask them for their smarthost config09:40
mrmistwell, ask them what their outbound SMTP server is09:41
chrislabeardK i'll try that09:41
chrislabeardthis look right --- smtp.att.yahoo.com09:48
mrmistit looks like an SMTP server, I can't really say if it's right for your ISP.09:48

StrangeCharmi'm using ssh on a remote machine, and there's a lot of network latency between me and it. is there any way to make command-line administration suck less?11:08
RoyKStrangeCharm: a better network connection? :)11:17
SlybootsOkay; Privoxy bloody blows11:19
StrangeCharmRoyK, that'd be lovely, but it really just isn't possible11:19
Slybootsand not in the good way11:19
StrangeCharmSlyboots, try polipo?11:19
StrangeCharmRoyK, i was really looking for a way that makes the most of a bad situation11:19
RoyKStrangeCharm: what sort of connection is this?11:19
StrangeCharmRoyK, it's a satellite connection11:23
StrangeCharmthe remote server is actually remote11:23
kaushalHi11:25
kaushalCan i ask about query regarding Oracle DB Server ?11:26
StrangeCharm!ask kaushal11:26
SlybootsHuh..11:26
SlybootsAnyone seen ":afs3-fileserver" in netstat before?11:26
kaushalStrangeCharm: The only way to properly convert from an Enterprise Edition back to a11:27
kaushalStandard Edition is through an Export/Import operation. This way you will11:27
kaushalget rid of all Enterprise Edition specific Data Dictionary objects, as the11:27
kaushalSYS schema objects are not exported. The Standard Edition EXP utility is11:27
kaushalpreferred to be used to export the data.11:27
kaushalAfter the Import in the Standard Edition database, you only need to drop11:27
kaushalall user schemas related to Enterprise Edition features, such as the MDSYS11:27
kaushalaccount (used with Oracle Spatial).11:27
kaushalHow do i drop all user schemas related to Enterprise Edition features, such as the MDSYS account (used with Oracle Spatial).11:27
SlybootsThis is quite mysterious; I cant seem to track down what this afs-fileserver process is11:30
SlybootsAnd now its vanished11:31
oCeankaushal: use pastebin to paste multiple lines. Also, I think #oracle would be more appropriate channel to ask11:31

swvistHello guys, i tried installing a ubuntu 10.04 server edition on HP proliant dl385 g5p using a bootable USB. After installation, i am not able to boot into the OS.11:32
swvistit says "attempting to boot from c:" and stops there.11:33
swvistany help will be appreciated. i am new to this.11:33
\shswvist: on the usb was there the alternate installation?11:36
\shalternate installation media, i mean11:36
swvistnope...11:37
\shwell, I never used an usb media as installation media.always used server media but more often automatic installation stuff11:37
swvisteven i did that but it wont boot. it wont reach grub.11:39
swvist:-(11:39
\shwell, all our hps are booting without any problems? problems with your MBR ? smartarray problems?11:40
\shjust installing many HP blade servers and 365 G5 G7 / 385 G5 G5P G6 and G7 right now11:41
swvistI was able to run a live cd of desktop version. I installed it as well. When i reboot, it gets stuck, "Attempting to boot from c:"11:43
\shso grub is not written correctly in the MBR11:43
swvistSo how do i fix this?11:44
\shwell grub should be written at the end..it will ask you to write in into the MBR11:47
kaushaloCean: no one is responding there :(12:15
kaushalon #oracle12:15
oCeanthat does not make it an ubuntu issue, right?12:15
kaushalyeah12:15
kaushalbut since this is a #ubuntu-server12:16
kaushalI believed i will get some help12:16
oCeankaushal: the topic is clearly ubuntu, not oracle. Your question is ALL about oracle12:16
lieuweI've got an upstart job that starts a game server, but when stopping this job it should send some text to stdin and wait for it to exit, how do I make this happen?12:45
lieuwehalp?12:50
lieuwealso, is the kill timeout directive in an upstart job in seconds?12:53
gobbei have installed several servers using usb-media13:02
RoyKlieuwe: what game server is this? and what do you mean send text to stdin?13:04
RoyKlieuwe: some magick with /proc/pid/fd, maybe ? :)13:05
lieuweRoyK: it's a minecraft server, and the server software reads stdin for server commands, so I want to send it "/stop" to make it come down cleanly.13:06
lieuweRoyK: anyway, I got a different solution in place now, so nvm.13:07

DoonzIm trying to expand my partition. Is there a cli guide i can follow?15:57
Doonzi performed a online migration of my raid 5 array and added 2 more disc into it. Now i need to find a tutorial on howto add the new space into the current partition15:58
pmatulisDoonz: using lvm?16:07
Doonzno16:08
pmatulisDoonz: well, how else do you "expand a partition"?16:08
Doonzwel you can resize partitions in windows with no problems16:09
Doonzso not sure what your asking16:09
Doonzbasically my array went from 4tb to 7tb and now i just want to roll that space into the partion16:09
pmatulisDoonz: the only way i know to give space of a new disk to a partition on a separate disk is to use lvm16:12
Doonzok thank you16:15
\shpmatulis: parted can do a resize..but I don't know how reliable that is16:41
geekbriIm sharing folders with ubunut 10.04 through vmware fusion, and when i boot it automatically shares it under uid 501,group dialout, i set my own fstab to mount it with different users, and it works if i umount /mnt/hgfs then mount -a  but on boot it doesn't use the settings from my /etc/fstab.  Any ideas?16:44
gobbewhat is the line in fstab16:45
geekbrigobbe: .host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs rw,ttl=1,uid=unity,gid=www-data,nobootwait 0 016:46
pmatulis\sh: but not disk to disk16:56
\shpmatulis: raid5 gives a volume, which shows one device, so it should be possible16:57
gobbegeekbri: but it will mount anyway on boot?16:59
geekbrigobbe: I discovered the problem, in the vmware-tools init script that loads the mounting module, it also performs a mount17:00
gobbeyes17:01
pmatulis\sh: right.  i guess the method depends on whether he's using h/w or s/w RAID17:11
RoyKthe answer is zfs :P17:12
gobbe:)17:12
gobbeyou can extend ext3/4 also17:12
RoyKsure, but no block-level checksumming, no compression, no good raid solution17:13
gobbecompression isn't really so fancy, first is the biggest feature missing17:14
gobbe:)17:14
RoyKbtrfs has checksumming, but currently no support for raid except mirroring17:15

RoyKbunch of 2TB drives :P17:17
gobbehow much you can get iops?17:18
RoyKpretty low last I checked, but then, it's for backup storage, so it works well - it can easily sustain a 10Gbps link, which is what it has17:19

qman__<pmatulis> Doonz: the only way i know to give space of a new disk to a partition on a separate disk is to use lvm19:33
qman__you can grow some filesystems19:33
qman__resize the partition with parted, then grow to fill the space19:33
qman__it's technically risky but growing isn't anywhere near as risk as shrinking19:33
geekbriguys im trying to build php but i keep getting the following error, configure: error: Cannot find libtidy,  but i have libtidy installed as well as tidy. any ideas?20:08
geekbriok well, i solved the problem, you need libtidy-dev as well!20:13
JanCgeekbri: in general, to compile things you always need the -dev package20:23
geekbriJanC: yeah for some reason since it was libtidy for some reason i thought it would be the proper package.  I just wasn't thinking i suppose.20:23
