_marx_ | whatchew been up to holstein | 00:06 |
holstein | there should be | 00:06 |
holstein | lemme look for it | 00:07 |
_marx_ | it's blank | 00:07 |
holstein | lol | 00:07 |
holstein | we did a lot though | 00:07 |
holstein | pretty much just internalkernel, akgraner and myself | 00:07 |
_marx_ | i can report that there are no ads on craigslist for Ubuntu or Linux events | 00:07 |
holstein | someone else popped in for a sec | 00:07 |
_marx_ | well we need to get some spark going | 00:08 |
holstein | OH | 00:08 |
holstein | we straitened out the FB | 00:08 |
holstein | but you know about that | 00:08 |
holstein | you're admin on it | 00:08 |
_marx_ | indeed | 00:08 |
_marx_ | you too | 00:08 |
holstein | OR i tried to make that happen | 00:08 |
_marx_ | well for now we need to double post | 00:09 |
holstein | i cant join the other one | 00:09 |
holstein | otherwise | 00:09 |
holstein | i would just sent an invite to all of them | 00:09 |
_marx_ | 80 something on the first FB page | 00:09 |
holstein | to the new one | 00:10 |
holstein | and let it go | 00:10 |
holstein | for all intents and purposes, its dead | 00:10 |
_marx_ | need to post meetings there too | 00:10 |
holstein | IF there is no admin | 00:10 |
holstein | _marx_: can you message the other group? | 00:10 |
_marx_ | i believe i can | 00:12 |
holstein | _marx_: you want to try that? | 00:13 |
holstein | just so all of those folk are formally invited to the new page | 00:13 |
holstein | i think that would be a good use of this meeting | 00:13 |
holstein | if we dont get anything else done | 00:13 |
holstein | i mean | 00:13 |
holstein | we can still double post for a while | 00:14 |
holstein | but, something formal would be nice | 00:14 |
* _marx_ trying now... | 00:15 | |
_marx_ | a wall post gets sent to all members? | 00:17 |
holstein | not sure | 00:17 |
holstein | i think it depends on how they are setup | 00:18 |
holstein | IF they get a notice or not | 00:18 |
holstein | not sure who would know the answer to that... | 00:19 |
_marx_ | okay FB won't let me paste in the addy of the new group | 00:20 |
_marx_ | maybe just the name | 00:20 |
holstein | _marx_: can you add a link? | 00:20 |
holstein | to the message? | 00:20 |
_marx_ | y | 00:20 |
holstein | maybe just drop it there | 00:21 |
holstein | use the name in the body | 00:21 |
_marx_ | done | 00:25 |
holstein | COOL | 00:25 |
_marx_ | that's the second time too so we'll see | 00:26 |
holstein | well | 00:26 |
holstein | some of those people could be just not active anymore | 00:26 |
holstein | most* even | 00:26 |
_marx_ | true | 00:26 |
holstein | OR maybe they do FB once a year like i do | 00:26 |
holstein | and when they finally log in, they'll deal with it | 00:26 |
holstein | _marx_: i say, if you want to action yourself | 00:27 |
holstein | and make it offical | 00:27 |
_marx_ | so are your uhours going well in a'ville | 00:27 |
holstein | that you did that | 00:27 |
holstein | _marx_: i only do the LUG | 00:27 |
holstein | the WNClug | 00:27 |
holstein | i'll probably make a LUG meeing an ubuntu hour | 00:27 |
_marx_ | k | 00:28 |
holstein | again | 00:28 |
holstein | at some point | 00:28 |
holstein | to try and kick it off | 00:28 |
holstein | im not going ot be able to host one | 00:28 |
holstein | BUT i would like for someone else in the LUG to take that on | 00:28 |
holstein | we'll see | 00:28 |
holstein | its coming up on a year since the last one that i did | 00:28 |
holstein | SO, i could do another one | 00:29 |
_marx_ | well a UH can be completely social | 00:29 |
holstein | yup | 00:29 |
holstein | it would be nice | 00:29 |
_marx_ | doesn't have to be technical at all | 00:29 |
holstein | and there are a handful of ubuntu folk | 00:29 |
holstein | that would just hang out i think | 00:29 |
_marx_ | i think that was the original intent | 00:29 |
holstein | but, its still too much for me | 00:29 |
holstein | to organize | 00:30 |
_marx_ | gotcha | 00:30 |
holstein | well, maybe | 00:30 |
holstein | i guess i could just set up something ongoing | 00:30 |
_marx_ | coffee joint be there or be square | 00:30 |
holstein | something that requires no email blurbs | 00:30 |
holstein | i'll think about it | 00:31 |
* _marx_ waiting for that one to come back | 00:31 | |
holstein | eitherway | 00:31 |
holstein | i'll do one at the firestorm soon | 00:31 |
holstein | next couple months or so | 00:31 |
holstein | to try and spur it on | 00:31 |
* holstein got a new computer | 00:32 | |
holstein | new to me that is | 00:32 |
_marx_ | i don't make the g'boro lug meetings because of budget constraints | 00:32 |
holstein | i was giving props to the kernel team | 00:32 |
holstein | i installed 10.04 | 00:32 |
holstein | no wifi | 00:32 |
holstein | no hot-keys | 00:32 |
holstein | i plugged it in to LAN | 00:32 |
holstein | got the latest kernel | 00:32 |
holstein | and everything is working | 00:32 |
holstein | _marx_: you still host the UH's though right? | 00:33 |
holstein | krankies? | 00:33 |
_marx_ | yes | 00:33 |
holstein | how many folk? | 00:34 |
_marx_ | just be there for a couple of hours | 00:34 |
_marx_ | 1-3 | 00:34 |
holstein | nice | 00:34 |
_marx_ | some mailing list pr would help, maybe FB too | 00:34 |
holstein | sure | 00:35 |
holstein | then you gotta do it though :/ | 00:35 |
holstein | maybe we can attomate a reminder somewhere | 00:35 |
holstein | automate* | 00:35 |
_marx_ | i'd really like to start a refurb thing but several problems exist | 00:37 |
holstein | refurb? | 00:37 |
_marx_ | get old boxen, refurb, distribute to needy families | 00:38 |
holstein | yeah | 00:38 |
holstein | i was thinking about something like that | 00:38 |
_marx_ | overall though we need some team building; we're not connected across the state as well as we could be | 00:40 |
holstein | agreed | 00:40 |
_marx_ | several names here tonight that i don't recognize | 00:41 |
_marx_ | well, i'm not a good chearleader | 00:47 |
_marx_ | i'm more the construction type | 00:48 |
_marx_ | typically some cussin' and name callin' | 00:48 |
_marx_ | not the best motivational techniques for this sort of group | 00:49 |
_marx_ | well... | 00:49 |
_marx_ | maybe a good cussin' is in order? | 00:50 |
_marx_ | holstein: closing now | 00:51 |
_marx_ | anything to add | 00:51 |
_marx_ | on the meeting record | 00:53 |
_marx_ | I've been here for some time now. | 00:53 |
holstein | _marx_: i say close it | 00:54 |
holstein | sorry | 00:54 |
holstein | i had a call | 00:54 |
_marx_ | This teams spark cannot rely on one person. | 00:54 |
holstein | _marx_: we did last time discuss.. | 00:54 |
holstein | trying to get something going on | 00:54 |
holstein | across the region | 00:54 |
holstein | maybe an event in the middle of the state somewheres | 00:55 |
holstein | we can try and drum up more folks for the meetings though | 00:55 |
holstein | and get more input on that for later | 00:55 |
_marx_ | We need to find some more ambers. | 00:55 |
holstein | hehe | 00:55 |
holstein | yup | 00:55 |
_marx_ | #endmeeting | 00:56 |

holstein | asheville asheville asheville | 00:58 |
holstein | strange | 00:58 |
_marx_ | had to be at work today at 8:30, got there at 8:29 | 00:58 |
holstein | i dont even remember putting asheville in my clipboard | 00:58 |
holstein | _marx_: lol | 00:58 |

holstein | at my moms church | 00:59 |

holstein | anyways | 00:59 |
_marx_ | winders or ... | 00:59 |
holstein | well, they have win7 | 00:59 |
holstein | but, i have a server running in vitualbox | 00:59 |
_marx_ | ah, 2 bad | 00:59 |
holstein | on my EEE | 01:00 |
holstein | and they use putty to get into a screen session | 01:00 |
holstein | whenever possible | 01:00 |
holstein | im working on rolling up some custom live iso's for the machines | 01:00 |
holstein | tricky wifi, and audio hardware | 01:01 |
_marx_ | broadcom wifi? | 01:01 |
holstein | i think so | 01:01 |
holstein | not too tricky | 01:01 |
holstein | i have the lspci output somewhere | 01:01 |
_marx_ | so you think this is a bad meeting time? | 01:02 |
_marx_ | or just no interest | 01:02 |
holstein | good question | 01:02 |
_marx_ | bugjam or something | 01:02 |
holstein | but im afraid its the latter | 01:02 |
_marx_ | raleigh is heavy w/redhat | 01:03 |
_marx_ | me too | 01:03 |
holstein | seemed like we had momentum there for a minute | 01:03 |
holstein | before the official blessing | 01:03 |
holstein | i think a few of us were really carrying the weight | 01:03 |
_marx_ | well back to core members in each area | 01:03 |
holstein | and got busy with other stuff | 01:04 |
holstein | and rightly so | 01:04 |
holstein | i shouldnt say 'us' | 01:04 |
holstein | really you and akgraner | 01:04 |
_marx_ | no you and internalkernel bugeyed too on uh | 01:04 |
_marx_ | there have been sooo many here on irc | 01:05 |
holstein | sure | 01:07 |
holstein | but i think you and akgraner really made the approval happen | 01:07 |
_marx_ | who's next on the chair list? not sure that's working at all | 01:08 |
* _marx_ goes for a nic fix | 01:08 | |

holstein | i drop her off at 9ish | 15:09 |
holstein | and i come to the local earth-fare for breaky | 15:09 |
holstein | i could totally try and promote an ubuntu hour then | 15:10 |
holstein | not very 'buisness professional' friendly | 15:10 |
holstein | as far as the time | 15:10 |
holstein | but, its something i can just add into my routine | 15:10 |
holstein | theres a guy from the LUG here now, so we are kind of having one anyways | 15:10 |
Daniel0108 | hi :) | 16:05 |
Daniel0108 | holstein, are you here? | 16:06 |
holstein | hey Daniel0108 | 16:40 |
Daniel0108 | hi holstein | 16:40 |
Daniel0108 | :P | 16:40 |
holstein | im around | 16:40 |
Daniel0108 | where is your friend? | 16:40 |
holstein | for a bit | 16:40 |
holstein | here and there | 16:40 |
holstein | internalkernel is who i was thinking of | 16:41 |
Daniel0108 | I still need help with DNS ;) | 16:41 |
holstein | IF he's around | 16:41 |
internalkernel | huh? | 16:41 |
holstein | we were going to point a domain for our LUG | 16:41 |
internalkernel | :D | 16:41 |
holstein | and he was the go-to guy :) | 16:41 |
holstein | internalkernel: hey | 16:41 |
holstein | im getting you in trouble :) | 16:41 |
internalkernel | lol... Im used to it... | 16:41 |
holstein | Daniel0108: , meet daniel | 16:42 |
Daniel0108 | hi internalkernel ;) | 16:42 |
internalkernel | hiya... | 16:42 |
internalkernel | hey holstein, going to miss Sat I've gotta go to SF... | 16:42 |
Daniel0108 | http://pastebin.com/iEaa6Npt | 16:43 |
holstein | internalkernel: not worries | 16:43 |
Daniel0108 | there is my problem :P | 16:43 |
internalkernel | AND iwas thinking future LUGs - we should get Jfo to talk about VCS like Bazaar or Git... | 16:43 |
Daniel0108 | I just copied the irc log ;) | 16:43 |
Daniel0108 | I hope you can help me :D | 16:43 |
internalkernel | he comes to mind since he works with the kernel team... | 16:43 |
internalkernel | Yes... what's the issue Daniel0108 | 16:43 |
Daniel0108 | internalkernel: http://pastebin.com/iEaa6Npt | 16:44 |
Daniel0108 | here is the issue :P | 16:44 |
internalkernel | so.. you want any requests to domain.at to forward to domain.com | 16:45 |
internalkernel | so. for instance like if you go to ubuntunc.com right now... it should just immediately forward you to ubuntu.com | 16:46 |
internalkernel | or rather our team wiki page I believe... | 16:46 |
internalkernel | I forgot which... lol... | 16:46 |
internalkernel | Create a virtual host file for the domain.at - all you'll need is the ServerName and this line: | 16:47 |
internalkernel | Redirect permanent / http://www.domain.com/ | 16:48 |
internalkernel | then: apache2ctr restart | 16:48 |
internalkernel | and all requests to domain.at will end up at domain.com | 16:48 |
Daniel0108 | internalkernel: I have a DomainOnly host | 16:56 |
Daniel0108 | I can't create files or restart apache | 16:56 |
holstein | Daniel0108: they give you access to something though | 16:56 |
holstein | they have to | 16:56 |
Daniel0108 | yes | 16:56 |
internalkernel | ahhh, what kind of access do they give you to setup a redirect? | 16:56 |
Daniel0108 | I can only setup DNS | 16:56 |
holstein | OR you should take it to another host | 16:56 |
Daniel0108 | but I can do what I want with DNS :P | 16:56 |
Daniel0108 | yes, but the problem is that I've already paid for it, lol | 16:57 |
internalkernel | Do you have a Plesk panel or some other type of domain control? | 16:57 |
Daniel0108 | only DNS control, lol | 16:57 |
Daniel0108 | :PP | 16:57 |
Daniel0108 | I can just add/edit/remove dns records | 16:57 |
holstein | maybe you should call them | 16:57 |
holstein | and ask them just how they propose the domain to be administered | 16:58 |
internalkernel | What you want to setup is a Redirect, I don't think theres a way to do that through the DNS records though - it's something Apache or the web server will have to handle... | 16:58 |
Daniel0108 | holstein, I have to pay for forwarding... and I don't want to pay again | 16:58 |
internalkernel | since that machine probably has hundreds of domain names pointed to an IP - the web server makes the distinction between which requests go where | 16:58 |
Daniel0108 | there is no way to point to a domain instead of a ip? | 16:59 |
Daniel0108 | for ips I have MX record | 16:59 |
Daniel0108 | *A record | 16:59 |
internalkernel | Maybe through the CNAME function | 16:59 |
internalkernel | A records require IPs | 16:59 |
Daniel0108 | okay | 17:00 |
Daniel0108 | I'll try CNAME | 17:00 |
internalkernel | CNAME record - Canonical Name might let you map the Domain name to an IP - but when the request hits the webserver it's still going to be domain.at | 17:00 |
internalkernel | and the webserver is going to go... Not here... | 17:00 |
internalkernel | I dont think there's not a way to trick the web server into thinking that a result for domain.at means domain.com | 17:01 |
Daniel0108 | ahh... that's unfair.... | 17:01 |
internalkernel | but hey if you find one, let me know... | 17:01 |
internalkernel | because that would be useful... the only way I know of is redirect through apache | 17:01 |
Daniel0108 | I have to pay like $80 for redirecting -.- | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | but the domain was cheap -.- | 17:02 |
holstein | per year? | 17:02 |
internalkernel | holy crap... | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | yes | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | per year | 17:02 |
internalkernel | who are you using? | 17:02 |
holstein | probably should read the fine print though | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | it's a good provider, but not for domain only :P | 17:02 |
holstein | 'restrictions apply' ;) | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | ah, doesn't matter :P | 17:02 |
Daniel0108 | I'll just cancel the domain :P | 17:03 |
holstein | i dont know, forwarding is a feature that i would expect in a domain registrar | 17:03 |
Daniel0108 | the .com works perfect | 17:03 |
Daniel0108 | and it's cheap | 17:03 |
holstein | included | 17:03 |
holstein | in whatever cost | 17:03 |
internalkernel | or even a nominal fee for redirecting... | 17:03 |
holstein | yeah | 17:03 |
Daniel0108 | high-speed webspace + domain for like 25$ per year ;) | 17:03 |
holstein | thats a 'bait-n-switch' almost | 17:03 |
Daniel0108 | 10GB, no traffic | 17:03 |
Daniel0108 | holstein, yeah... | 17:04 |
Daniel0108 | okay, I'll leave this channel now :P bye | 17:06 |
_marx_ | holstein: i think your UH idea fits the description; time is early but what the... | 23:03 |
_marx_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hour | 23:03 |
_marx_ | pr it a bit and who knows who might show up | 23:04 |
