[00:17] New bug: #711587 in eucalyptus (main) "powernap and Eucalyptus seem unable to reach an understanding" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/711587 [00:21] hggdh: [00:21] hggdh: bug #711587 [00:21] Launchpad bug 711587 in eucalyptus "powernap and Eucalyptus seem unable to reach an understanding" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/711587 [00:21] what's the problem with powernap? [00:23] RoAkSoAx, not really powernap, I guess, but the interaction with euca [00:23] I think the "problem" is the user not using the tools correctly [00:23] "I cut my thumb off using the bandsaw. Obviously there is a problem with bandsaws and wood" [00:23] RoAkSoAx, powernap puts the system on a nap, and euca does not seem to recover, or not recover fast enough [00:24] twb, that's for me? [00:24] hggdh: powernap runs an arbitrary command [00:24] hggdh: are you sure powernap is putting the machine to nap?? (The method by default is not to suspend a machine) [00:24] twb, whatever it does -- the default install should be sane. [00:25] but to put it to powersave mode, which doesn't put them to sleep, but save power by running pm-powersave [00:25] From the additional input you just provided, it sounds like the problem is eucalyptus vs. pm-utils [00:25] RoAkSoAx, IDK. All I know is it tells me it is going into powersave, and suddenly it takes a long time to get a response on the terminal [00:25] or vs. kernel [00:26] hggdh: edit vim /etc/powernap/config and change ACTION_METHOD from 0 to 4. [00:26] 0 is powersave, and 4 is best-effort [00:26] which is the default in previous ubuntu releases [00:26] that will pm-suspend the node [00:27] How would ANYTHING wake it up from a suspend state, anyway? [00:27] I will try. For the alpha2 tests, it will not really matter anymore, there is yet another issue that fails all instances [00:27] That requires external stimuli, like a HID or WOL [00:27] twb, perhaps WOL? [00:27] In *that* case I'd say your problem is kvm not implementing WOL over the bridged interface or so :-) [00:28] I'm not sure it wouldn't be better to leave the power-saving work to the VM rather than implementing it internally with ACPI states [00:28] After all, the VM's whole ACPI stack is a virtual one in any case [00:29] twb: hggdh WoL [00:30] anyway, so far the end result seems catastrophic to euca. [00:31] hggdh: first check if the nodes that are being put to "sleep" by euca with powernap are really aspleep [00:31] that might be the issue [00:32] RoAkSoAx, indeed. I am searching for possible causes. Also, please note that I opened the bug on euca, *not* on powernap. I tend more to euca as root [00:34] hggdh: indeed!! i just wanted to discard that powernap was the cause of the issue, because in natty, there'sbeen quite a few changes to it [00:35] well not just a few, a lot [00:35] and one of those is to not suspend, or hibernate, or poweroff the machine, but to maintain it running in powersave mode [00:35] by default [00:38] I will try it [00:52] now, just to add sugar on top gnome-panel decided I cannot really select, or move to another window in a workspace (but I can change workspaces) [00:53] how to copy the vtoc of one disk and apply to another disk? [00:53] is it a combination of fdisk and sfdisk ? [00:54] in solaris i do it like this, prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 [00:54] c0t1d0s2 is new disk [00:55] not sure how to do similar operation on linux [00:55] my orig disk /dev/sda and new disk is /dev/sdb [00:58] RoAkSoAx, I will keep on tomorrow. Probably I will find something obvious. I hope :-( [01:18] hello... I want to use a file as an encrypted loop device... what would you recommend, dmcrypt, ecryptfs? [01:19] hggdh: just let me know if you need any help ;) [01:20] SpamapS: yay!! just broke my X [01:21] RoAkSoAx: lucky you :) [01:21] RoAkSoAx: I'm refraining until nvidia puts out new drivers [01:21] SpamapS: yeah im with 640x860 as we speak and drivers dont work [01:21] lol [01:30] SpamapS: any ideas on how to repair this? [01:40] RoAkSoAx: my desktop is broken too. back into wmii for a bit [01:52] I have just set up my first EVER bind server (bind9 on ubutnu 10.04) and everything works great execpt one thing: when i ping a hostname that i have set up in bind, the pings return very slow, like one every 5-6 seconds. Any ideas? [01:52] I tried disabling ipv6 through sysctl.conf, but still the same results (even after reboot) [01:54] hallyn: oh jeez!1 I wonder how long we'll have to wait for a fix [01:56] dschuett: I don't believe bind is your problem there if it's taking 5-6 seconds after the initial lookup [01:57] mdeslaur: but it JUST started doing it when i set up bind [01:57] it worked fine with dnsmasq... i have read that this is because ipv6 is enabled, but i have disabled it and still get the same results [01:58] dschuett: what if you ping the ip address instead of the name? [01:58] dschuett: and/or do a ping -n [01:58] FAST as normal [01:59] what do you have in /etc/resolv.conf? [02:00] domain scs.local search scs.local nameserver 192.168.0.150 <--- all on their own line [02:00] and 192.168.0.150 is your new bind server? [02:00] yes [02:01] hmm...I'm not quite sure what the issue is than [02:01] s/than/then/ [02:02] yeah, kind of strange... [02:03] I am going to ask around in #ubuntu [02:16] RoAkSoAx: lemme know if you find it's been fixed :) not sure when i'll try again [02:20] hallyn: i will ;) [02:28] anyone running bind9 on ubuntu 10.04? [02:28] Yes [02:29] twb: everything works great execpt one thing: when i ping a hostname that i have set up in bind, the pings return very slow, like one every 5-6 seconds. Any ideas? [02:29] No, I don't run bind9 [02:29] twb, oh :P [02:29] You asked if ANYONE ran bind9 in lucid -- this is almost certainly true. [02:30] e.g. you do, proof by instantiation [02:30] ping will only resolve the hostname once, so if ongoing ping responses are slow, that's unrelated to bind. [02:30] You should be diagnosing DNS issues with dig, not ping [02:41] whats this room for? [02:42] i cant get a flash player working in my firefox [02:42] twb: ok, i see what you mean... BUT if i ping by the ip instead of the hostname it pings just fine [02:52] dschuett: NFI, sorry [03:14] "35 packages can be updated. 3 updates are security updates. [03:14] ...in aptitude or apt-get, how can one say "list only security updates"? [03:14] Futher, how can one say "apply only security updates"? [03:33] On aws at least, 10.04.2 LTS is available apparently. [03:40] I have been troubleshooting this for ever now... I just set up my first bind9 dns server on ubuntu 10.04, everything works fine, but when i ping by the host name it takes like 5 to 6 seconds between getting each echo response... if i ping by ip the response time is normal [03:40] I know people say this isn't a DNS problem, but i dont' get why it just started doing this when i installed bind and it worked fine when i was using dnsmasq...and also for the fact that it works fine wihen pingin the ip [03:42] hi [03:43] I rebooted my ubuntu server and I got general error mounting file system [03:43] so it just brings me to the root shell [03:43] in read only shell (maintnace ) [03:43] what did I do wrong [03:44] bbl [03:58] hallyn: ping? [04:06] New bug: #711635 in mysql-dfsg-5.1 (main) "mysql update fails waiting for input" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/711635 [05:04] why does ubuntu do a reverse lookup on EVERY ping request? [05:06] hah, that's funny [05:06] maybe you can turn it off with -n [05:06] if that helps [05:07] sparc: well, i know you can do that... but i don't get why it does this....? shouldn't it cache the first one? [05:07] maybe some people want it to be aware of dns changes, maybe [05:07] although, i guess the resolver should cache as well [05:08] sparc: i have bind running and if i ping a host by hostname it takes like 5 seconds between each ping response because it does a reverse lookup on every ping [05:08] but this is weird because if i ping google.com from my ubuntu machine it does the same thing [05:08] but not with yahoo.com [05:08] sparc: Kind of odd.. [05:09] dschuett: ping -n yahoo.com should take care of that, unless I am misunderstanding the issue? [05:10] i think he's curious about why that's the default behavior [05:11] although, if my copy is doing that too, it's quick about it [05:11] and doesn't result in the 5 second window between responses [05:11] sparc: oh, i forgot to mention that i notice that it only does this on ubuntu DESKTOP [05:11] dschuett: could be your resolver isn't caching and does a recursive query each time? [05:12] sparc: why would google.com take a long time between responses but NOT yahoo.com [05:13] there might be a lot going on there that affects the behavior [05:13] most of which is outside the ping utility [05:13] sparc: so you're saying that i should be able to configure bind to cache? [05:13] 16:07 sparc: well, i know you can do that... but i don't get why it does this....? shouldn't it cache the first one? [05:13] That would depend on the app, and on nscd (if installed) [05:14] And of course your recursive resolver could cache it, too. [05:14] Personally I would recommend using dnsmasq as your recursive resolver, and reserve bind for hosting your zonefiles. [05:16] twb, how do you run both? [05:17] Separate hosts [05:17] Or bind one to the internal interface and the other to the external interface [05:18] ahhh gotcha [05:23] ugh, i can't get nginx to serve websites on an ec2 instance through its elastic ip on 10.04. It serves it on the public dns without an issue. any ideas? [05:25] I heard that nginx ignores /etc/hosts and only refers to DNS [05:25] Is that relevant? [05:27] well i didn't make an entry in /etc/hosts but its probably relevant. I think the issue is that an EC2 instance isn't aware of its elastic IP just its public DNS... i could add its ip to /etc/hosts i guess but if nginx ignores that it wont help anyway (that didn't seem like a proper solution anyhow) [05:28] honestly im a bit stumped all together because i thought if you did listen 80; nginx would just listne to all incoming connections on port 80, but it seems to serve it some random "welcome to nginx" page [05:28] geekbri: whu aren't you binding to *:80 [05:28] i thought that listen 80 and listen *:80 where equivalent [05:28] Dunno [05:29] ask netstat [05:29] well , i tried * anyway and it didn't work :(. This has got me puzzled and frustrated :) [05:30] are there reliability issues when using bridging with DHCP? sometimes my vms just seem to disappear [05:32] You can't bridge DHCP; that doesn't make sense [05:32] if I have a bridge set up on a network that uses DHCP, my vms are connected to it. [05:33] s/if// [05:34] http://pastebin.com/emBkQyY8 [05:39] well i give up. goodnight [05:45] well, if anyone has any ideas i'll be on for a bit... i'm not sure why my VM can no longer hit the network, but it's pretty annoying :/ [05:54] I've been reading about some key differences between Postfix and Exim; does anyone have any input on general usability and maintenance of either/both on an Ubuntu 10.10 server? I've only used Exim before... [06:05] tohuw: Use whichever you are more comfortable with, both work fine in Ubuntu. I think Exim has two different ways to configure it (one big file or many smaller one) which can be odd if you are not used to that and come from running exim on another distribution or IS. [06:06] jmarsden: I used Exim's "many smaller files" setup. Do you have any strong opinions on MDAs? [06:07] tohuw: Not really. I tend to use postfix myself, but that's just habit/preference. Along time ago I used sendmail :) [06:07] (I realize that "whichever I am comfortable with" is a good answer here as well, but given that my previous environments sort of auto-managed my mail system (WHM/cPanel), I'm open to opinions/biases/religion) [06:08] I think more Ubuntu people use postfix than exim, but I'm not sure of that... so you might get better support from the Ubuntu community using postfix...? [06:08] jmarsden: Sorry, I was asking about M*D*As, as in Courier, Dovecot, Cyrus, etc. [06:08] jmarsden: Yeah I was sort of thinking that (about Postfix) [06:09] Ah... again I use what the distro uses, so I use dovecot. That means for really simple installs you can use the dovecot-postfix package and it autoconfigures them to work together. [06:11] jmarsden: do you find it simple to quickly add "virtual users" using dovecot? That is, just a mailbox address that is not attached to any real user on the system. Bonus points for experience setting up virtual users with multiple forwarders to mimic "Distribution Lists" [06:12] I'll RTFM, of course, but I like to hear how many orders of magnitude the FUBAR is before diving in sometimes. :) [06:13] tohuw: you can do that with postfix & dovecot, but you need some other glue, I personally use mysql as my user store. [06:13] tohuw: http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/ [06:13] that is setup for debian, but with minor tweaking it can be done with ubuntu. [06:14] For that kind of thing I tend to pick the tool that does all the "virtual user" management, has a web UI or whatever is needed, and then use whatever it asks for underneath. Which often includes a database. [06:14] O [06:15] tohuw: If you are coming from a WHM/cpanel background maybe you want to look at free alternatives to that and then use what they ask you to use? [06:15] jmarsden: any tool of that nature you particularly recommend? [06:15] bleh, fingers not on home keys sucks... anyway... I've used the above link + http://froxlor.org panel software [06:15] It depends what exactly you need. ispconfig maybe. [06:16] jmarsden: I don't like systems that comandeer such a significant portion of my stack... I'm perfectly happy managing my own LAMP stack, though I freely admit my woeful ignorance of all things mail-sy [06:17] but things like DNS, Apache, MySQL/Postgres, etc., I prefer to self-manage, because cPanel likes to do silly things. [06:17] tohuw: then you may want to take a look at the link I tossed out there, that leaves most of your LAMP alone. [06:17] greppy: ooh neat. I'm ogling it now. [06:17] but gives you a web based control panel for managing mail domains & users. [06:20] hrm, I wish it could run on postgres [06:20] !kvm [06:20] kvm is the preferred virtualization approach in Ubuntu. For more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM [06:21] tohuw: it probably could, but that's a little more tweaking :) [06:22] greppy: there's only so much tweaking I'm willing to do in a given environment before I give up/go stark raving mad. I love toying around, but I don't like creating unstable environments that I can't get wide support on because they've been tweaked to death [06:22] at least, not when paying clients come into the picture [06:22] *nod* [06:22] my own toys are another matter >.> [06:23] I totally understand :) === skaet is now known as skaet_afk === mike_miller is now known as mike8901 [07:47] There is a new version of Upstart that fixes bug 672177, but it is kept back because it would break libc6.

I will use mabolo, marula, and santol [14:57] hggdh: okies [14:58] Daviey: I will have to reinstall, so give me 30 min (or more, I just applied the latest updates to natty, and lost most of the windows controls [14:59] Daviey: can you fix that torrent bug with eucaylptus while you are at it [15:00] 697753 [15:05] hallyn: ping [15:05] cmagina: hey [15:06] cmagina: can you ship me a generator? [15:06] hallyn: two things, are you done with my server and i have some info on the multipath run [15:06] hallyn: the weather really bad down there? [15:06] cmagina: yes, done with your server, should be all shut down. thanks, it was perfect [15:06] hallyn: awesome, thanks :) [15:07] cmagina: it's bad for down here, yes. 17 degrees. but power has been out all morning. they turn it back on every 30-60 minutes for about 5 mins [15:07] hallyn: on the multipath front, it looks like the new package isn't chatting with the SCMs properly [15:07] so what info on mp? [15:07] hm [15:07] it has the alua-specific patches we had in the old package.... [15:07] i have the logs from both sides, the console on the server and the SCM debugging logs as well [15:07] this is with the one merged from debian experimental right? [15:08] yeah [15:08] it appears when it goes to configure the ports, something isn [15:08] wasn't done and the ports are put into standby [15:09] the SCMs are showing a command they don't recognize on their side, but i don't have a good baseline to know if that has anything to do with it [15:10] that is awful (the power outage), hopefully when the icy rain truly freezes up here we don't lose power lines [15:10] i'm gonna have to start coding in a winter coat [15:10] ouch [15:10] it might be worth checking whether debian/experimental has any updates since i grabbed the tree [15:10] all of the logs from the run are in my home directory [15:11] i'll take a look when i can, but tbh i don't know that i'll be able to figure it out. [15:11] note there have been some bugs floating around the dm-devel m-l, [15:11] making me wonder whether i should've gone with debian/unstable after all :) [15:11] yeah, if i get some more time today, i'll try and get a run with the 0.4.8 package and SCM debugging turned on for a baseline to compare against [15:11] cool, that'll be helpful [15:12] i ned to reproduce some other things today, i will hopefully lookat the logs tomorrow [15:12] yeah, i don't know low level scsi very well, i know the kernel interfaces, but not the specification down to the hardware level [15:13] hopefully the power situation improves for you [15:13] might need to go out and melt some ice off those lines ;) === skaet_afk is now known as skaet [15:20] -13°F here [15:22] 10F here [15:26] -23C [15:28] 25C here xD [15:29] Daviey: new CLC/CC/SC/Walrus installed, and I updated wrappers.conf; installing NCs now [15:41] RoAkSoAx: I envy you [15:41] xD === oubiwann is now known as oubiwann_ [15:51] ooh, power's back on for a few minutes. i'm not optimistic though [15:56] <\sh> guys, when you want to laugh about something: http://www.shermann.name/2011/02/serious-joke-of-day-drying-your-smoked.html <- this I saw when I entered our local DC room .. sad but true === shubbar_ is now known as shubbar [16:04] yup, there it goes again [16:31] hallyn: got a generator? [16:31] hallyn: or just making do with 3G+laptop ? === FkCek is now known as FkCek|a [16:33] SpamapS: the latter [16:33] SpamapS: i was on 3G anyway so that's no bother. it's just the cold. (and down to 65% batt) [16:34] hallyn: saw the news reports this morning saying 2' or more coming to Chicago.. ouch. [16:36] severe weather indeed [16:37] SpamapS: yeah, they're having trouble too :) i'm in austin atm though [16:37] here they just aren'tr used to it [16:43] hallyn: why do I keep screwing up where you are? [16:43] hallyn: you just messing w/ me? [16:43] ;) [16:43] Hi, Could somebody point me to a resource where I can learn how to make a RAID 0 array?? [16:44] DrPoO: you want to use Linux md (software) RAID to do so? [16:44] giovani, yes [16:45] just look on the help.ubuntu.com site [16:45] giovani, mdadm [16:45] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID [16:46] md is common to all linux distros [16:46] so any md howto will work [16:47] SpamapS: our family moves from place to place based on where you think we are not, yes :) [16:49] hallyn: diabolical === JanC_ is now known as JanC [16:51] zul: ping? [16:51] SpamapS: whats up [16:52] zul: so for the second time in a week, I have a plugin for mysql that needs the full mysql source tree to build... [16:52] zul: wondering if the mysql packages could spit out their source as a binary package. [16:52] nooooooooo [16:52] zul: its mysql's fault, not the plugins' fault ;) [16:52] SpamapS: riight [16:53] SpamapS: so how are you thinking on doing it? [16:53] zul: a bin package that drops mysql-$version.tar.gz in /usr/src/mysql [16:53] zul: *or* .. producing a package with just the bits of the source tree that they need [16:54] SpamapS: ok well show me a debdiff and ill crucify it...i mean review it ;) [16:54] and put those in /usr/share/mysql/include [16:54] zul: this is specifically for handlersocket and xtrabackup [16:55] SpamapS: i figured ;) [16:55] SpamapS: do they need a specific version of mysql? [16:59] SpamapS: i need lunch so ill bbiab [17:07] hallyn: Hey. That nbd patch... Do I need to do anything else or do I just wait now? [17:14] zul: sorry to answer your q, 5.1 or later for hsocket I think. xtrabackup seems to work with any version 5.0 or later [17:15] soren: did you mail it to lkml and cc: arnd? [17:15] I didn't CC arnd, but he responded anyways. [17:16] hallyn: ^ [17:16] hallyn: Hm, or at least I thought I did. [17:16] hallyn: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/28/306 [17:17] hallyn: Hm... That web archive thing is odd to me. [17:18] soren: looks good. the thing now is to just ping and bug people until it gets picked up [17:19] hallyn: When I look at patches in git, they have a crapload of acked-by's and tested-by's and whatnots.. [17:19] hm though i don't see it in myinbox [17:19] hallyn: Do I need to add those or does whoeever merges it do that? [17:19] when someone else sends you an Acked-by, you add it into your patch [17:19] And resend it? [17:20] can you resend your patch, and add 'Acked-by: Serge Hallyn ' ? (bc i can't reply since i don't have it) [17:20] yes [17:20] Man. git people sure like their e-mail. [17:20] you don't always have to resend it, but after the first posting or so, it can help make your patch look more legit [17:21] hallyn: Ok, so I got this: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/30/47 [17:21] and yes, some maintainers will just add any acked-by's which they see in the thread if youhaven't. at least i think i've seen akpm do that [17:21] Daviey: there? [17:21] soren: yeah but he didn't explicitly ack it that i can see [17:22] hallyn: Exactly. [17:22] soren: ah, ask him if you can add 'tested-by: ' [17:22] hallyn: I'll ask Paul for guidance. He's the maintainer of hte nbd module, after all. [17:23] soren: that's fine. i personally would respond and ask if he's ok with you adding his Tested-by, but nothing wrong with that either [17:23] soren: but if you *do* resend, pls do add my acked-by [17:23] hggdh, o/ [17:23] hallyn: Will do, thanks. [17:24] it's tough to type when violently shivering [17:24] maybe it's time to go work from the car [17:24] hallyn: Google shows a hit for my patch on patchwork.kernel.org. Do you know what that is? [17:25] C/msg Daviey no luck [17:25] soren: i think all patches end up on there [17:25] hallyn: Ah, automagically? [17:25] C/msg hggdh, :( [17:25] think so [17:25] C/msg Daviey You and hggdh suck at /msg'ing. [17:26] c/msg soren heh. I say 'thank you' to the latest X & companions on natty :-) [17:27] :) [17:27] I am moving back to my old laptop, works good on Maverick [17:28] hggdh: Which e-mail to use for the acked-by? [17:28] err.. [17:28] heh [17:28] hallyn: Which e-mail to use for the acked-by? [17:28] hallyn: Acked-by: Serge Hallyn [17:28] ? [17:29] yeah that's fine. (I've been waffling the last few months) [17:29] hggdh: btw... any more news on the eucalyptus/powernap bug? [17:30] RoAkSoAx: not yet, trying to zero in the other issue with dhcpd, disabled powernap for a while [17:30] RoAkSoAx: I will get back to it ASAP [17:30] hggdh: ok ;) [17:30] let me know [17:34] hggdh: but when you do, change ACTION_METHOD to 4 in /etc/powernap/config ... as I really suspect that's the case [17:34] RoAkSoAx: thanks for this, I had already forgotten (reinstalled from scratch) [17:35] hggdh: no probs, just let me know your results [17:35] RoAkSoAx: will do, no doubt ;-) [17:37] Hi all, a quick question on time synchronization in server v10.10... [17:37] use ntp :) [17:37] I noticed there is no daily cron for ntpdate and the ntp packaged is not istalled by default so I'm unclear on how it synchronizes it's time, or does it? [17:38] it does each time a network interface comes up [17:38] using ntpdate in cron is evil [17:38] lol why evil? [17:38] your blindly syncing your time to who knows what and no idea how good it is [17:39] Well, sure, IF you don't, but if you did you would not object? [17:39] heh? [17:39] I have no idea what you said [17:40] my point is I know where and what it is syncing to if I were to set it up that way. [17:41] then I couldn't care less :) [17:41] as long as it's not someone elses public time server :) [17:41] right. Anyhoo... if it is syncing only at if-up then it essentially syncing only once? [17:41] for a server, yep [17:42] thanks much! [17:48] iceflatline, The primary reason for not using ntpdate in cron, is that it changes the time very rapidly... [17:49] Some applications panic if the time jumps too far, especially backwards ! [17:49] Therefore, ntp does adjustments gradually taking the pain away [17:49] ^^ better for servers :) [17:49] Daviey: Error: "^" is not a valid command. [17:49] uvirtbot, pah [17:49] Daviey: Error: "pah" is not a valid command. [17:49] for example, dovecot [17:54] Daviey: Understood, that's why I was wondering why NTP was not used. [17:56] ntp opens a port though [17:56] I believe that is why it's not included by default [17:57] and this brings us back to same old Q: why don't we use ntpd as a standard? [17:57] (and ntpdate is being deprecated upstream) [17:57] hggdh: dunno [18:00] Just curious how the server keeps accurate time on an ongoing basis; and it appears it can't unless you add a package. [18:01] unless you have ntpd, it does not. It will start drifting, and the rate is pretty much relative to the hardware [18:01] hggdh: yes, I've arrived at the same conclusion. [18:02] and location :) [18:02] I had a server that kept accurate time at my house [18:02] but in the datacenter drifted at the max ntp would adjust [18:02] 500pps per hour? [18:03] Then the solution is simple - swap machines :) [18:03] na, I swapped the internal timing method [18:03] I think it was using tsc [18:03] tsc? [18:03] yep [18:04] So.... which lucky bunny wants to work on a FTBFS? [18:05] iceflatline: http://the-b.org/Linux_timers [18:10] <\sh> I wonder if it's possible to give grub-pc on ubuntu-server flavour a 5 sec timeout to hit somehow... [18:10] <\sh> (by default I mean) [18:11] sure, edit /etc/default/grub [18:11] <\sh> patdk-wk: I mean after the default install... [18:11] sure, edit /etc/default/grub [18:13] <\sh> patdk-wk: that's after after the default install...I mean by default...giving the admin a chance ;) hey, we are not desktop we don't worry about the 5 seconds boot time promise ;) [18:13] you just said, I mean after the default install [18:13] editing that file would be *after the install* [18:14] If you have some automated install with a preseed file going, can use a post install directive in there to alter it before first boot [18:14] you mean, you want to add a script to the installer to edit that for you [18:14] I think what he's saying is he wants the delay on first boot [18:14] genii-around: +1 [18:14] :) [18:14] I have some problems configure Samba server. [18:14] ... [18:15] Can someone help me with it. [18:15] !ask [18:15] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [18:15] Will pastebin the config file [18:15] My problem is that i can't get access to the home folders i have been set up. [18:17] Here is my /etc/samba/smb.conf file: http://pastebin.com/ANR6m2Gg [18:19] halvors1: you haven't said what the problem is... [18:22] http://pastebin.com/hN790Zat [18:22] without comments - easier to read [18:25] RoyK: The problem is that i cen't access the server (home directroys)... [18:31] halvors1: not at all? [18:31] or just no writes? [18:31] you have write permissions turned off, btw [18:35] halvors1: also, have you created samba users? smbpasswd ... [18:38] I get no login box when try to login using Ubuntu Desktop [18:38] patdk-wk: Thanks! very helpful. [18:42] so I just did a handful of updates on a 10.04 server, and now networking is completely dead: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9757362/2011-02-02%2010.36.17.jpg [18:42] the proper module is loaded and lshw seems to see the Ethernet adapter, but it won't come up [18:44] RoyK: ? [18:46] lspci -v for the network card? [18:48] hmmm...actually, it looks like it replaced the tg3.ko module with the older version, and copying the new one to /lib/modules/2.blah###/kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko doesn't replace it anymore [18:50] loading the module by hand with insmod works [18:51] get blacklisted or something? [18:51] my friend had an issue like that with his raidcard (not a blacklist issue) [18:52] we just added it into /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, and all good again :) [18:54] patdk-wk: do you have to regenerate the initramfs after doing so? [18:54] yep [18:54] makes sense, I'll give that a shot...thanks! [18:55] update-initramfs -u -k all [18:55] I'm not 100% sure if that is going to matter for a network card [18:55] but well, not having the raid card in initram makes the system not boot :) [18:58] wich is better ebox or webmin for ubuntu server? [18:58] neither :) [18:58] then what to use? [18:58] ssh? [18:58] ssh? [18:59] well, as webmin doesn't even exist [18:59] but ebox is in universe [18:59] out of those two, ebox [18:59] ebox sux [18:59] i cant even install it [19:00] it does problems with apache [19:00] and /var/www [19:00] why bother asking then? [19:00] i cant even get to work [19:00] i also ask is there any other [19:00] like webmin and ebox [19:00] for ubuntu [19:00] patdk-wk: looks like my update went from 2.6.32-27 to 2.6.32-28 and I didn't notice...is there a way my updated module can be included by default in all version bumps? [19:00] updated module? [19:01] did you compile and install that network driver youself? [19:01] patdk-wk: yes, I had to [19:01] hmm, ugly then [19:01] indeed [19:01] the only auto way I know is dkms [19:02] you would have to make a dkms thing for it [19:02] or make a nice script to compile and install it [19:03] and add it into /etc/kernel-img.conf (postinst_hook) [19:03] so nothing about my question [19:03] * patdk-wk says use ssh+vi [19:04] patdk [19:04] i need webinterface [19:04] for my server [19:04] so ill use webmin [19:04] ebox looks good but is pain for me [19:04] and really thanks [19:04] you didnt helped me [19:04] I never said I could help you [19:04] than shut ur mouth up [19:04] im here for help [19:04] if u cant help just read [19:04] you the one bitching no one is helping you [19:05] trying to dabble with MPD, doesn't seem to be binding to port 8000 for HTTPD streaming. log is no help... [19:05] is there something I'm missing? [19:05] patdk-wk: thanks for the help...I'll probably just write a quick script since these are just test systems and won't be around forever [19:08] erm ... there was an alternative to lshw, but I don't remember its name [19:11] hwinfo? [19:20] patdk-wk: no, it was something else [19:31] in order to fully remove mysql-server and reinstall it, is there anything i need to do other than apt-get remove mysql-server ? [19:34] because when i installed it after that, it didn't ask me to configure the root password like it did the first time [19:40] it won't, remove doesn't remove configs [19:40] purge removes configs [19:42] excellent. I actually figured that out and did that, but now for some reaosn when i reinstall it, its not generating some of the normal config files... for example /etc/mysql/my.cnf is missing [19:42] odd [19:43] patdk-wk: yeah thats what i thought! [19:43] patdk-wk: it might not be a huge deal as i have another ubunutu-server with a default my.cnf, but it makes me wonder what else might be missing [19:46] robbiew: i expect to have the new openstack release uploaded first thing tomorrow morning [19:49] does anyone know a way to tell apt I use an external mysql server. I hate how it always installs mysql as a dependance to some applications. I just manually remove mysql each time. Anyone know of a more elegant solution ? [19:50] ignarps, it's not apt, it's dbconfig [19:50] if I remove dbconfig will it not do that ? [19:50] reconfigure it [19:52] thanks [19:58] patdk-wk, I just tried this on a vm. I answered no to save passwords. Then yes to prompt for remote database info [19:59] I then did an apt-get install bacula-director-mysql for a test. apt does put mysql-server-5.1 to be installed [20:01] This is why I assumed it was an apt thing [20:14] SpamapS: hi [20:14] SpamapS: who is the current server team lead now? [20:14] lifeless: we dont' have one [20:14] ah [20:14] so, I can whinge at you then :) [20:15] lifeless: its part of robbie's plan to eventually become The Ubuntu Christ [20:15] there is an opportunity for you to make Launchpad faster. [20:15] oooo lets do it! [20:15] we have two Apache front end servers doing SSL unwrapping and next-step routing. [20:16] as a result, we have two SSL session caches [20:16] ooh I remember this one [20:16] didn't the mod_ssl guys solve that long ago w/ mcache? [20:17] see [20:17] if its not in the package [20:17] it doesn't exist. [20:17] Know what I mean? [20:18] yes I do [20:19] Sounds like a memcached use case, depending. [20:19] SpamapS: what should I do to help get this some cycles ? [20:19] distcache was the one I was thinking of actually [20:19] last mailing list post... 10/2008 :( [20:20] http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@httpd.apache.org/msg29896.html seems rather old. 'solved problem' I guess :P [20:21] KB1JWQ: Thanks for the help thus far, should I repost my question here? [20:21] looks like apache 2.3 has memcached session capabilities [20:21] Blegh: Yeah, your issue is likely going to get less drowned out here. :-) [20:22] ah, yeah, thanks :) [20:22] lifeless: I think you could just bug me to get it on my "webscale" blueprint as a work item.. [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] SpamapS: do it [20:23] lifeless: http://journal.paul.querna.org/articles/2010/07/10/overclocking-mod_ssl/ .. this is a great summary of the velocity talk from June that the google guys gave.. [20:23] * KB1JWQ reflexively reaches for the banhammer [20:23] Sorry, sorry. :-P [20:24] SpamapS: yes, I know :) [20:25] subject=/O=launchpad.net/OU=Domain Control Validated/CN=launchpad.net [20:25] issuer=/C=US/ST=Arizona/L=Scottsdale/O=GoDaddy.com, Inc./OU=http://certificates.godaddy.com/repository/CN=Go Daddy Secure Certification Authority/serialNumber=07969287 [20:25] Don't we get like.. a special deal on thawte certs? ;) [20:25] mmmmmmmmmm crack [20:25] SpamapS: no; it got sold. [20:25] SpamapS: its how we exist man! [20:25] lifeless: still.. should have written that into the bill of sale ;) [20:25] SpamapS: they probably would have asked for a discount :P [20:25] lifeless: so.. we have a nasty cert chain.. [20:26] lifeless: im all for it unless it causes headaches [20:26] lifeless: as far as I can see.. we just need to build distcache as a package [20:26] zul: so, the patch is pretty clean, the API is already modular. [20:27] zul: its a new enum value for 'use memcache', and then the glue logic to insert and read back values [20:27] lifeless: http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@httpd.apache.org/msg29897.html [20:28] zul: minor stuff :) [20:28] I cannot login or sudo on my ubuntu server box, get given errors and segfault error when using the correct password, details and errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/561554/ I could do with being pointed in the right direction as my googling only seems to turn unrelated problems. Pastebin the output of "strace sudo bash" http://paste.ubuntu.com/561558/ [20:28] zul: someone was saying 2.3 has it builtin ? [20:28] yes, its in 2.3 [20:29] but there's already a distributed cache daemon that works w/ 2.2 [20:29] then why not use the distributed cache daemon? [20:30] AFAIK its not packaged [20:30] it has a sourceforge project untouched since something like 2004 [20:30] its possibly Just Fine. [20:31] have you guys done any testing with the caching daemon or any testing with the patch above? [20:31] no, chicken and egg thing [20:31] IS have very limited cycles [20:37] Its LGPL 2.1.. [20:37] looks pretty basic.. which is good [20:37] lifeless: right i would say open up a bug in launchpad [20:37] lifeless: another reason this hasn't received much attention is that for a while, its been standard practice to just buy an appliance to do all your SSL [20:37] If people are connecting to our server in the U.S. from Russia. Could there be a setting in ubuntu that is timing them out if there is a long enough delay? [20:37] and we can bring the discussion there [20:37] SpamapS: we call those 'Ubuntu servers' [20:37] zul: what specifically should I ask for? [20:37] Hello! [20:37] zul: memcache ssl support in 2.2 ? or distcache packaging? [20:37] zul: functionally, I don't have a preference. [20:37] lifeless: both i would use to take a closer look before doing anything though [20:37] i cant read /etc/shadow as root if i export it with nfs, any idea why? [20:37] is this an export or mount problem? [20:37] my export options are: rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash [20:38] zul: SpamapS: bug 712108 [20:38] Launchpad bug 712108 in apache2 "shared ssl session cache support not possible out of the box" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/712108 [20:39] lifeless: cool thanks [20:41] SpamapS: damn now i remember where I heard it from...i had to build this for an isp i used to work at [20:42] distcache seems unmaintained [20:42] at least in the sourceforce project area [20:43] ahasenack: thats what im leaning towards right now [20:44] what about (glup) mod_gnutls? [20:44] it does support memcache (so they say) [20:44] http://www.outoforder.cc/projects/apache/mod_gnutls/ [20:45] libapache2-mod-gnutls is packaged (if it's the same thing) [20:45] ahasenack: right but you have to patch apr [20:45] oh [20:46] seems like centos has distcache packaged *wink* [20:46] "To use apr_memcache with older versions of APR-Util a patch is required. This patch is not required for APR-Util after 0.9.7. To apply the patch:" [20:46] zul: seems we are in the clear regarding the patch? [20:49] New bug: #712108 in apache2 (main) "shared ssl session cache support not possible out of the box" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/712108 [20:49] anyways i need to disapear for a bit [20:55] greetings. is there a way for me to find out what the password is for a user ? [20:56] you could brute-force it if you have a hash. usually that's very bad form though and it's better to just change their password if they have forgotten. === mrmist is now known as Guest93975 === Mr_mist is now known as mrmist [21:09] orudie: it's stored encrypted in /etc/shadow - apt-get install john if you want to try to crack it by brute-force [21:09] it'll probably take a while [21:13] How come my python script (http://paste.pocoo.org/show/331280/) takes a fraction of a second to execute on my computer, but it takes over 45 seconds on my ubuntu server? [21:20] hallyn: hey, moved a couple VMs out of ecryptfs and am trying to reproduce bug #694029 [21:20] Launchpad bug 694029 in qemu-kvm "[natty] kvm guests become unstable after a while" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/694029 [21:24] jdstrand: isn't natty in alpha? [21:25] RoyK: yes... ? [21:25] I was just letting him know I didn't forget about his question [21:25] hm.. no idea how to debug that, though [21:25] yeah [21:25] it is a real head scratcher [21:26] jdstrand: perhaps you could try a stock kernel? [21:26] I could, and probably will [21:26] I can say maverick works perfectly [21:26] 2.6.37 and 2.6.38 Ubuntu kernels, not so much [21:26] I just use lucid for servers, so I wouldn't know [21:27] I hit this all the time when testing updates (which I do primarily in virtualization) [21:29] do you get any suspicious kernel logs from the host? [21:34] Is it possible to use debootstrap on a Lenny box to bootstrap a Ubuntu chroot? [21:45] KB1JWQ, sure [21:48] sudo isnt doing tab completion, where would i enable that? i have tab completion for regular commands, but if i start typeing a command after sudo, no tab [21:51] what is the minimum size for a JEOS install of server? Of old it was 500M, a just installed Alpha2 is 519M [21:52] in other words is this -- the new size -- correct, or is it creep? [21:52] probably just cause it's an alpha [21:53] maybe. But even alphas are expected to be mostly in conformance [22:00] zul: lp:~clint-fewbar/ubuntu/natty/mysql-5.1/export-source and lp:~clint-fewbar/+junk/handlersocket [22:01] whats handlersocket? [22:02] zul: the plugin that needs mysql-source-5.1 ;) [22:03] zul: opens a new port on a mysql server that does high speed non-SQL reads and writes [22:03] how do I fsck lvm disk [22:03] https://github.com/ahiguti/HandlerSocket-Plugin-for-MySQL [22:03] its badass [22:03] doI need to use a live cd and run a different command to do fsck on a lvm dis [22:03] SpamapS: ok ill have a look at them second thing tomorrow [22:03] zul: anyway, I have to disappear for a bit too. Thanks for looking. :) [22:04] zul: the handlersocket packaging is admittedly only 90% .. need to split it up a bit and ship the docs [22:04] SpamapS: Ah, that thing. I've read about it lots of times, but the name never sticks. It's a horrible name, but yeah, it's wicked cool. [22:05] SpamapS: send me an email to remind me [22:05] zul: will remind you tomorrow for sure. :) [22:08] zul: did you run the openstack tests? [22:08] hggdh: not yet but ill do it tomorrow [22:09] jdstrand: still no reproduction without ecryptfs? [22:46] hi...this may be the wrong channel...i have a server running ubuntu 10.04lts, with postfix/dovecot installed. is it possible/feasible to reconfigure the domain name for the mailboxes? [22:50] kinygos: Sure. [22:51] kinygos: postconf -n to a pastebin please, for starters. [22:51] doveconf -n to a pastebin may follow. :-) [22:52] http://dpaste.com/379382/ [22:52] doveconf? [22:57] hi all, does anyone know if the output of the sudo command (specifically sudo -l) is configurable without recompiling? [22:59] we're slowly migrating from RHEL to Ubuntu in our environment (hundreds of servers, a big task), and I'm finding that sudo -l under ubuntu, does not print the names of which LDAP sudo roles are used, only the effects of them [23:01] kinygos: Change /etc/mailname and the mydestination variable in main.cf [23:01] Adjust your dovecot pathing appropriately as well. [23:01] Test after a service restart. [23:02] KB1JWQ: thank you very much :) [23:02] torrancew: man sudo :-) [23:03] doh [23:03] * torrancew was just that guy... [23:05] KB1JWQ: if i change myhostname too, do i need to generate a new certificate and key? [23:06] thanks, KB1JWQ [23:06] Not to worry. [23:06] kinygos: Most likely. :-) [23:12] 1 AM, 1 problem, 7 hours, and still no idea what to do :S Kinda wish it was win 98 randomly bsodding rather [23:17] KB1JWQ: it worked a treat, without adjusting anything in dovecot...does that show a sign of misconfiguration on my part? [23:30] kinygos: No, it's only a concern if the domain is a part of the path to the mailbox. [23:48] KB1JWQ: thank you once again for your time and help...awesome :) [23:51] No worries. [23:51] Running with apt-proxy, http://pastebin.com/2qKbHWeZ is apparently not the proper sources.list syntax. A little help? :-D
