| greiser | got real quiet here... | 00:57 |
|---|---|---|
| mhall119 | it happens | 01:08 |
| Lupine | g'morning all....are there any Python experts around, and if so are you familiar with paramiko? | 13:23 |
| mhall119 | morning Lupine | 13:32 |
| Lupine | hey man, how's things been | 13:32 |
| mhall119 | good, what do you need help with? | 13:32 |
| Lupine | http://paste.ubuntu.com/556510/ | 13:33 |
| Lupine | it looks like it should be so simple, it's driving me crazy | 13:33 |
| Lupine | I got this from examples found all over the place...and it's an exact duplicate of the examples | 13:35 |
| mhall119 | hmmmm | 13:38 |
| mhall119 | I don't see anything wrong | 13:38 |
| mhall119 | did you install from the repos? | 13:39 |
| Lupine | damn....then that means it must be the host I'm trying to connect to | 13:39 |
| Lupine | a Cisco router | 13:39 |
| Lupine | yes...installed from the repos, and even tried older/newer versions...I bet ya it's the stupid host | 13:39 |
| mhall119 | yeah, I just tried your script on my box and it ran fine | 13:41 |
| Lupine | grrrrr....stoopid me...it's the host, when I try the above with a normal Linux host, it works as expected. | 13:41 |
| Lupine | thanks for the sanity check...guess I'll have to try something else for the Cisco router | 13:41 |
| mhall119 | good luck | 13:42 |
| Lupine | thx | 13:42 |
| amouge | hey guys, anyone know a way around wget limitation of 2gb or whatever random number it is? | 15:33 |
| amouge | I have a server with a 2.4gb file i need to download that is tgz | 15:33 |
| amouge | i downloaded all the rest fine | 15:33 |
| amouge | but this one through http or wget gives a 403 error | 15:33 |
| mianosm | wget has a file size limit? | 15:34 |
| mianosm | Does Curl also have a file size limit? | 15:35 |
| amouge | I dont think its wget or curls problem | 15:35 |
| mianosm | Can you ftp the file instead using get? | 15:35 |
| amouge | i think its on my source server thats having a problem | 15:35 |
| amouge | well im trying to do a direct transfer | 15:36 |
| amouge | because i tried doing it through my work computer and its saying its gonna take 18 hours to download | 15:36 |
| amouge | where as a direct transfer would take about 10 minutes | 15:36 |
| amouge | so i dont mind wasting a bit of time to figure it out.. | 15:36 |
| mianosm | wget uses a pointer to a LONG to store where it's up to in a file. | 15:40 |
| mhall119 | 403 == forbidden | 15:41 |
| mhall119 | it's returned by the webserver | 15:41 |
| amouge | yea | 15:41 |
| mianosm | change your --user-agent? | 15:41 |
| mianosm | --user-agent=FireFox/Mozilla or something like that...the server may be refusing any requests from *wget* | 15:42 |
| amouge | i tried directly from firefox and got the same | 15:42 |
| mianosm | time to edit the webserver config then... | 15:43 |
| mhall119 | maybe the webserver is timing out the connection | 15:43 |
| mhall119 | gah, the in-laws windows computer won't boot | 15:44 |
| mhall119 | I'll be making a house call this evening | 15:44 |
| mhall119 | windows is such a pain to fix | 15:45 |
| amouge | can you use rsync to pull files from remote server? | 15:45 |
| mianosm | yes | 15:45 |
| amouge | i know you can push | 15:45 |
| mianosm | its the same as rsh | 15:45 |
| amouge | but the server is locked down and wont let me push to it lol | 15:45 |
| amouge | I hate taking over crap from previous IT people | 15:46 |
| amouge | weirdest thing.. I tried even ssh'ing from another server and it wont let me in with same login credentials im using to login from work | 15:46 |
| amouge | yay think its working! | 15:50 |
| mhall119 | zsync, ftw | 15:50 |
| amouge | rsync -avz -e ssh credentials@mysite.com:/path/to/file /new/path/to/file | 15:50 |
| mhall119 | if you're going to have to keep pulling updates to that file, you want zsync | 15:50 |
| amouge | looks like its gonna work.. we will see | 15:51 |
| amouge | mhall119: nope server migration | 15:51 |
| mhall119 | ok | 15:51 |
| amouge | company has been paying for 2 dedicated servers for 6 months because previous IT talked it up and talked it up and then never actually migrated | 15:51 |
| amouge | and they are pissed lol | 15:51 |
| mhall119 | nice | 15:51 |
| amouge | yea to the tune of 700/month for the new server | 15:51 |
| amouge | dual quad core, 8gb mem, 6 redundent raid 73gb hd's, 10 ips and 2tb bandwidth | 15:53 |
| amouge | fully managed | 15:53 |
| mhall119 | where? | 15:53 |
| amouge | plus hardware firewall and managed backup | 15:53 |
| amouge | rackspace | 15:53 |
| amouge | beats the pants off my dual single core 1gb mem single 36gb scsi server i have in my office lmfao | 15:55 |
| mhall119 | on their cloud or no? | 15:55 |
| amouge | uhm.. its a dedicated server.. dunno lol | 15:55 |
| amouge | i just have the list of equipment | 15:55 |
| mhall119 | ok | 15:55 |
| amouge | i didnt set it up | 15:55 |
| mhall119 | I'm looking around at hosting options for by brother | 15:56 |
| amouge | im just left with crossing my fingers and praying for minimal downtime when i do the transfer | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | getting prices, etc | 15:56 |
| amouge | well I love rackspace cloud | 15:56 |
| amouge | for vps | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | how's their support? | 15:56 |
| amouge | I have like 6 clients i have on there | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | have you ever needed it? | 15:56 |
| amouge | support is great. 24/7 | 15:56 |
| amouge | I needed it when i was up at 2 am and did an oopsie | 15:56 |
| amouge | but never for down time or anything | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | cool, that's hopefully all he'll need it for too | 15:56 |
| amouge | and cheap | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | do you host any Windows systems with them? | 15:57 |
| amouge | nah i hate windows servers | 15:57 |
| amouge | every client ive ever had with a windows server permissions were nightmarish | 15:57 |
| amouge | how big of a server does he need? | 15:57 |
| amouge | I like the cloud servers cause you can get them starting at 10.95 a month + bandwidth | 15:58 |
| amouge | and their bandwidth charges are fairly cheap | 15:58 |
| amouge | or, if you prefer to go ahead and buy bandwidth at the same time.. i dunno if you know that slicehost is rackspace | 15:58 |
| mhall119 | not too big, I think | 15:58 |
| amouge | slicehost 256mb slice with 15gb bw is 20 a month | 15:59 |
| mhall119 | a dozen or so ASP.NET websites | 15:59 |
| mhall119 | bigger than that | 15:59 |
| amouge | hmm... so like a 512 or 768 | 15:59 |
| amouge | i dunno how resource hungry asp.net is | 15:59 |
| mhall119 | I would say closer to 2GB | 15:59 |
| mhall119 | I don't know much about asp.net either | 15:59 |
| amouge | ah ok.. lol im no asp.net/windows fan | 15:59 |
| amouge | well 2gb with 1200gb transfer is 130 from slicehost | 16:00 |
| mhall119 | be either, but he'll be hosting asp websites, so there's not much choice | 16:00 |
| amouge | hmm. slicehost doesnt offer windows | 16:01 |
| amouge | so it'd be around 116/month for a 2gb rackspace vps + bandwidth | 16:01 |
| mhall119 | yeah, I have no idea what kind of bandwidth he'll need | 16:02 |
| amouge | bandwidth is fairly cheap | 16:02 |
| amouge | and i find people over estimate their bandwidth a lot | 16:02 |
| tiemonster | better than underestimating it | 16:03 |
| amouge | had a large client with thousands of pictures and about 500 hits a day, art gallery.. only used like 30gb of bw a month | 16:03 |
| amouge | hmm maybe they had more than that for hits | 16:03 |
| amouge | either way... bandwidth is only 18 cents a gig out and 8 cents a gig in | 16:04 |
| amouge | hmm me hopes rsync hasnt frozen | 16:04 |
| amouge | it doesnt give any indications.. | 16:05 |
| mhall119 | wow, amazon's prices for windows servers is expensive | 16:05 |
| amouge | this is all it says... | 16:05 |
| tiemonster | What's the use of a windows server? | 16:05 |
| mhall119 | tiemonster: hosting asp.net websites | 16:05 |
| tiemonster | why would you want to do that? | 16:05 |
| mhall119 | paying clients with asp.net websites who need hosting | 16:06 |
| amouge | http://screencast.com/t/KjcNnGfdM | 16:06 |
| tiemonster | must be desperate | 16:06 |
| amouge | thats how its been sitting since i said yay! it worked. lmao | 16:07 |
| amouge | oh wait.. maybe i underestimated the size | 16:08 |
| tiemonster | oops | 16:08 |
| amouge | 2733971998 | 16:09 |
| amouge | how big is that in gigs? lol | 16:09 |
| greiser | 27 | 16:09 |
| tiemonster | is that bytes? | 16:09 |
| amouge | yes | 16:10 |
| amouge | thats what ls -la gives me | 16:10 |
| mhall119 | 2.5 | 16:10 |
| amouge | so i assume its bytes | 16:10 |
| mhall119 | not 27 | 16:10 |
| tiemonster | 2.5 | 16:10 |
| amouge | thats what i thought.. rsynce shouldnt take that long! | 16:10 |
| amouge | rsync* | 16:10 |
| tiemonster | unless it's the first run | 16:10 |
| amouge | it is | 16:10 |
| amouge | just one file | 16:10 |
| tiemonster | just | 16:10 |
| greiser | i meant 2.7... my period key didnt fire | 16:10 |
| mhall119 | uh huh | 16:10 |
| amouge | lolol | 16:10 |
| tiemonster | I would give it a few hours | 16:10 |
| amouge | damn.. well i guess its better than the 18 it told me it was gonna take through sftp | 16:11 |
| amouge | just to download to my local computer | 16:11 |
| tiemonster | subsequent runs will go much faster | 16:11 |
| tiemonster | because it will calculate deltas | 16:11 |
| greiser | leave me alone... i'm on a windows machine with a keyboard whose keys are raised 2 inches | 16:11 |
| amouge | lol dont need subsequent runs | 16:11 |
| greiser | you have to literally punch the keys | 16:11 |
| tiemonster | which is defeated by using tar... | 16:11 |
| amouge | i just need to get this backup file of one of our websites out to new server | 16:11 |
| tiemonster | one time only? | 16:12 |
| amouge | yes | 16:12 |
| tiemonster | scp would be faster | 16:12 |
| mhall119 | tar isn't the problem, gzip is | 16:12 |
| tiemonster | mhall119: yeah - that's what I meant | 16:12 |
| amouge | i tried using wscp... it said 13 hours | 16:12 |
| amouge | to download to local computer | 16:12 |
| amouge | then who knows how long to upload it back | 16:12 |
| tiemonster | probably accurate | 16:12 |
| amouge | winSCP i mean | 16:13 |
| amouge | lol | 16:13 |
| mhall119 | if you've got a slow connection, that would be right | 16:13 |
| tiemonster | it usually takes 6-8 hours for me to download Ubuntu releases at home | 16:13 |
| mhall119 | course, encrypting and decrypting 2.5GB for the transfer will slow things down a bit too | 16:13 |
| amouge | erm.. i wish there were a faster way | 16:13 |
| tiemonster | oh - yeah I didn't think about using rsync without an ssh tunnel | 16:13 |
| amouge | breaking up the file or something and grabbing it with wget | 16:14 |
| mhall119 | that would work | 16:14 |
| mhall119 | zsync does essentially that | 16:15 |
| greiser | wow.... it only takes me around 40 minutes to download an ubuntu release.... | 16:15 |
| greiser | if that | 16:15 |
| mhall119 | bittorrent, ftw | 16:15 |
| greiser | wget.... | 16:15 |
| tiemonster | greiser: yeah - it takes about 25 minutes at work | 16:15 |
| tiemonster | but we have 100MB symmetric | 16:16 |
| greiser | i have rr turbo at home | 16:16 |
| greiser | something like 10mb down, 1mb up.. or something.. | 16:16 |
| mhall119 | yeah, I like to download from the USF mirrors while on the USF network at work | 16:16 |
| amouge | haha.. yea we dont even have rr turbo at work | 16:16 |
| amouge | its just rr | 16:16 |
| amouge | lmao | 16:16 |
| greiser | so like 2mb down, 512kb up? | 16:17 |
| amouge | uhm.. heres my speed test | 16:17 |
| amouge | something doesnt seem right | 16:18 |
| amouge | lol | 16:18 |
| amouge | http://screencast.com/t/QdVDhcK9He | 16:18 |
| amouge | is there a cli to compress an entire directory but split in to multiple files under a certain size automatically? | 16:20 |
| mhall119 | you mean like rar? | 16:20 |
| amouge | yea i guess | 16:20 |
| mhall119 | rar/unrar are in the ubuntu repos | 16:21 |
| mhall119 | there's also p7zip-rar | 16:21 |
| amouge | i'll have to see if its available on red hat, cause old server is running that | 16:21 |
| amouge | im sure it is | 16:21 |
| amouge | gotta be a quicker way than this rsync or 13 hours for ftp just to download | 16:22 |
| mhall119 | probably not | 16:22 |
| mhall119 | either way you'll be transferring the same amount of data | 16:22 |
| amouge | yea.. but it only took me like 10 minutes to direct transfer a 1 gig file from server to server | 16:22 |
| amouge | its just this other one is over 2 gigs and i cant just wget it | 16:23 |
| greiser | y? | 16:23 |
| amouge | because wget and curl and http all give me a 403 error instantly when i try to go there | 16:23 |
| amouge | so im guessing the apache is refusing to send a file that large? | 16:24 |
| greiser | lol | 16:24 |
| greiser | 403 is a forbidden error | 16:24 |
| greiser | permissions and such | 16:24 |
| amouge | yea.. the thing is i copied all the tars to same directory at same time | 16:24 |
| amouge | all have same permissions.. all are identical | 16:25 |
| amouge | only thing different is size | 16:25 |
| amouge | others copied just fine with wget | 16:25 |
| amouge | all run same backup script nightly with same user permissions, and i copied from backup spot to public http spot for me to quickly grab them to new server by just cp ./* /path/to/public/ | 16:26 |
| greiser | apache? | 16:37 |
| greiser | apaches doesn't support large files until version 2.2 so if you are running a previous version your hitting apache's file size limit which is why your getting a 403.... | 16:37 |
| maxolasersquad | Oooh, the new auto-hiding dock in Natty looks nice. | 17:42 |
| maxolasersquad | I just noticed the LibreOffice is the default in Natty as well. Cool. | 17:54 |
| dantalizing | any mdadm/software raid ninjas around? | 17:58 |
| dantalizing | zoopster: i had to uninstall and reinstall google voice in order for it to work with the latest cm7 .... ymmv, but just fyi | 18:51 |
| zoopster | dantalizing: I updated over lunch but gv seems to work ok | 18:54 |
