| inetpro | good mornings | 08:22 |
| deegee_ | lo inetpro | 08:47 |
| inetpro | deegee_: hi | 08:48 |
| inetpro | daniel: hi | 08:48 |
| inetpro | deegee_: why you have a tail? | 08:48 |
| daniel | how do I setup a pppoe client on my wireless interface | 08:49 |
| deegee_ | could get rid of it.... noticed my nick is used somewhere else.... | 08:49 |
| inetpro | deegee_: ahh | 08:49 |
| * deegee_ is trtacking duplicate nicks | 08:49 | |
| inetpro | daniel: what version of ubuntu? | 08:49 |
| daniel | ubuntu 10.10 | 08:50 |
| inetpro | daniel: hmm... I've never set up a pppoe connection on ubuntu | 08:50 |
| inetpro | deegee_: you done it? | 08:50 |
| inetpro | perhaps froztbyte or cocooncrash | 08:51 |
| inetpro | or superfly | 08:51 |
| superfly | inetpro: I've done it, but only via the command line | 08:51 |
| inetpro | drubin: you also use ubuntu all the time | 08:51 |
| deegee_ | inetpro: nope | 08:51 |
| superfly | Maaz: google for setting up pppoe on ubuntu | 08:52 |
| Maaz | superfly: "ADSLPPPoE - Community Ubuntu Documentation" https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE :: "PPPoE Modems" https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/modems-adsl-pppoe.html :: "Installing Ubuntu using PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)" https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/powerpc/pppoe.html :: "Connecting to the Internet" https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html :: "Configuring PPPOE connection - Ubuntu Forums" http: | 08:52 |
| superfly | looks like there is some documentation hanging around | 08:52 |
| superfly | http://lmgtfy.com/?q=setting+up+pppoe+on+ubuntu | 08:53 |
| inetpro | hmm... what's the difference between a ppp and a pppoe coonnection? | 08:55 |
| superfly | Maaz: define ppp | 08:55 |
| Maaz | superfly: PPP n 1: surgical resection of unnecessary palatal and oropharyngeal tissue to open the airway; intended to cure extreme cases of snoring (with or without sleep apnea) [syn: {palatopharyngoplasty}, {PPP}, {uvulopalatopharyngoplasty}, {UPPP}], PPP Point-to-Point Protocol (Internet, PPP, RFC 1171/1661) | 08:55 |

| inetpro | daniel: please tell us if you succeeded or not | 08:58 |
| * inetpro wonders whether daniel is still around | 09:00 | |
| daniel | i am | 09:01 |
| inetpro | daniel: cool, I hope you found something from the links above | 09:03 |
| inetpro | daniel: feel free to ask more questions, I'm sure someone should have more answers even if they all seem very busy | 09:04 |
| daniel | inetpro: thanks for the help I've got some reading to do | 09:05 |
| inetpro | daniel: np | 09:05 |
| nuvolari | think I made a mistake. Turned down a lady calling wrt. Java devs in Pretoria. I don't know where she got my name, so how she got the work number is even stranger | 09:13 |
| superfly | nuvolari: it's never a mistake to turn down a recruiter :-P | 09:13 |
| nuvolari | superfly: lol ok, good then. | 09:15 |
| nuvolari | why exactly is it not a mistake? | 09:15 |
| confluency | Because they usually suck. | 09:15 |
| confluency | And use spam tactics, and try to get you to do their job for them for free. | 09:16 |
| superfly | And, more often than not, they don't actually know anything about IT | 09:19 |
| superfly | I've almost never come across a recruiter that doesn't play buzzword bingo | 09:19 |
| confluency | Also, they call you during working hours -- when you are *working*. | 09:20 |
| confluency | Not only is this annoying, it seems unlikely that you will be keen to discuss your desire to leave your job over the phone *while you are at work*, even if you want to. | 09:21 |
| superfly | I have also had recruiters contact me via my WORK e-mail address | 09:21 |
| superfly | I just ignore them | 09:22 |
| confluency | I refuse to talk to recruiters over the phone *ever*, and I bounce email requests unless I am actually being offered a great job opportunity which interests me, which is never. | 09:22 |
| confluency | Logic is not a strong point of recruiters. | 09:22 |
| superfly | Precisely | 09:22 |
| confluency | I have killfiled a couple of people who keep sending me the exact same crap job offer which has absolutely nothing to do with my skill set. | 09:23 |
| confluency | My unfavourite part is when you tell them you're not interested and they ask if you can give them your friends' contact details so they can spam them too. Um, no. | 09:23 |
| confluency | OTOH, if you're really desperate for a new job, feel free to talk to them -- even a stopped clock is on time twice a day. ;) Just be aware that they will never lose your number, and neither will their gazillion friends. | 09:26 |
| superfly | I *still* get calls from recruiters I last interacted with over 5 years ago | 09:31 |
| superfly | they *never* leave you alone | 09:32 |
| Owkkuri | indeed | 09:38 |
| kbmonkey | it's friday :) | 16:32 |

| kbmonkey | hi all. can anyone point me to configuring a firewall to allow nfs mounting? :) | 20:32 |
| kbmonkey | most of the tuts I see online refer to /etc/sysconfig/nfs, which doesnt exist on the pc | 20:32 |
| superfly | kbmonkey: WAYTTD | 20:48 |
| kbmonkey | superfly: I want to mount a nfs share on my desktop, hosted on another ubuntu pc | 20:57 |
| kbmonkey | however I _just_ got it working, after so many tries and googles :) | 20:57 |
| superfly | kbmonkey: so what does the firewall have to do with it? | 20:57 |
| kbmonkey | basically, and my heads spinning a bit from this.. | 20:58 |
| kbmonkey | nfs uses a few select ports, and also some dynamic ones to mount | 20:59 |
| kbmonkey | and the firewall interferes with this. I just changed nfs service to use a fixed port instead | 20:59 |
| kbmonkey | and allowed that through the firewall. seems to work okay | 20:59 |
| kbmonkey | murpheys law: you find the solution just as you ask somebody else :) | 21:02 |
| superfly | if neither of the two computers is on the internet you don't need a firewall | 21:16 |
| kbmonkey | both of them are, and the one hosting the share will eventually run a dyndns service | 21:24 |
| kbmonkey | which I will ssh in from anywhere, so I'd like it to be firewalled :) | 21:24 |
| superfly | kbmonkey: does it not have 2 interfaces then? | 21:25 |
| kbmonkey | ideally yes | 21:26 |
| * superfly gives up on his ADSL woes for the night, and heads off to bed | 21:26 | |
| kbmonkey | myself, no more work for now | 21:27 |
| drubin | superfly: Follow tumbleweeds split routing tutorial but remove the split routing stuff | 21:29 |
| kbmonkey | drubin: thanks, I'll do! | 21:33 |
| drubin | kbmonkey: That was for superfly | 21:35 |
| drubin | kbmonkey: I can't help with your firewall issue sorry ;/ | 21:36 |
