lifeless | iggi: folk generally won't own up to knowing stuff | 00:48 |
lifeless | iggi: rather than asking if someone knows, ask the actual question | 00:48 |
twb | !ask | 00:49 |
ubottu | 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. :-) | 00:49 |
twb | !anybody | 00:49 |
ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 00:49 |
twb | Most of what I say is already in the bot :-P | 00:50 |
lenios | !details | 00:55 |

MadHaTTer_000 | whos asking what? | 00:57 |
extra11 | what is the file handle default set at? I want to run a server that can handle more than 10k connects and I heard the limit needs to be increase | 00:57 |
extra11 | and set accordingly | 00:57 |

iggi | OK, I will ask the question: I have an iscsi storage server, which I mounted by means of fstab to /VM. I changed the default storage pool config to have /VM as my location for all my disk images, but when I try to do virsh pool-start default it gives me permission denied. This happens even when libvirt-qemu:kvm as the owner and 777 permissions, I don't get it. I tried setting the default | 01:42 |
iggi | location back to /var/lib/libvirt/images and it started without a problem. I further tested a symlink from /var/lib/libvirt/images to /VM (with 777 permissions set) and no dice. Also, as a note I am able to boot and run images located in /VM by means of searching for the image locally in virt-manager. | 01:42 |
nertil | i have 2 websites in my ubuntu runing with apache | 01:45 |
nertil | is there a way to monitor them | 01:45 |
nertil | ? | 01:45 |
twb | nertil: yes. | 01:46 |
folklore | nertil your best bet(if I understand you correctly) | 01:46 |
folklore | is use php,python etc... | 01:46 |
folklore | plenty of scripts out there | 01:46 |
folklore | that show stats or whatever you need | 01:47 |
nertil | okey | 01:48 |
folklore | nertil if you give more details maybe someone else will have an answer | 01:48 |
nertil | well i like something that monitor my two websites, so two in one if u understand | 01:49 |
nertil | to access them easy with one click or whatever | 01:50 |
nertil | the point is i dont want everytime i sit on my pc | 01:50 |
nertil | to write the address to access them | 01:50 |
nertil | i want something that will access easy and know everything about them | 01:51 |
nertil | monitoring at all | 01:51 |
nertil | every kind of help will be apreciated | 01:51 |
folklore | nertil directadmin maybe | 01:51 |
folklore | or cpanel should do everything you want | 01:52 |
nertil | let me read about them | 01:52 |
folklore | the latter is much more popular but costs $$ | 01:52 |
folklore | the former I think is free | 01:52 |
nertil | directadmin is free? | 01:52 |
twb | cpanel is more for holistic administration than simple availability or performance monitoring. | 01:53 |
folklore | nertil think so, check out their site, www.directadmin.com I think | 01:53 |
nertil | no they are with money | 01:53 |
nertil | i use phpmyadmin | 01:54 |

twb | hallyn: dunno; try #postfix | 02:02 |
hallyn | doh | 02:02 |

MadHaTTer_000 | anyone care to help me get unbanned from a server? | 02:03 |
MadHaTTer_000 | or is that to off topic? | 02:04 |
folklore | Mad what kinda server | 02:04 |
MadHaTTer_000 | irc | 02:06 |
MadHaTTer_000 | i never been on it before and im already banned...??? | 02:06 |
MadHaTTer_000 | it says i match a spammer pattern | 02:07 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: try #freenode | 02:07 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: or wherever that channel's topic directs you. | 02:07 |
MadHaTTer_000 | no its not a room its a server | 02:08 |
folklore | MadHatter they probably use efnets ban list or whatever, wish servers would stop doing that, nothing against efnet operators but they're not the type of people you trust with that kinda thing | 02:09 |
folklore | MadHatter all you can do is email someone from the network | 02:09 |
folklore | if you know the banlist you're on its possible you can manually remove yourself on the the site | 02:09 |
twb | Not spamming usually helps, too :P | 02:10 |
MadHaTTer_000 | :P | 02:10 |
MadHaTTer_000 | i dont spam as i said i never been to the server b4 | 02:11 |
folklore | Mad does the kline message give a link? | 02:11 |
folklore | or an email address | 02:11 |
MadHaTTer_000 | kline@axenet.org yes but with the kline emails on other servers it seems like their never checked | 02:13 |

membrex | does anyone can help me to reamstering ubuntu server 10.04 with GUI inside | 03:01 |
patdk-lap | what is a reamstering | 03:02 |
patdk-lap | and if you want gui, install desktop instead | 03:02 |
patdk-lap | nertil, fix your hosts file, or dns | 03:02 |
patdk-lap | but in almost all cases, you can just ignore it | 03:02 |
membrex | i mean remastering | 03:03 |
membrex | because i want to reamstering ubuntu server 10.04 GUI inside with minimal application | 03:04 |
nertil | !webmin | 03:05 |
ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 03:05 |
nertil | !ebox | 03:05 |
ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 03:05 |
gratidude | nertil: Ensure your FQDN is specified in your /etc/hosts file, e.g. "x.x.x.x hostname.abc.com hostname" | 03:06 |
nertil | ok | 03:08 |
twb | patdk-lap: I think he wants to roll a new ISO that contains GUI packages in the pool, and a preseed to install them by default. | 03:15 |
twb | I don't know *why* he'd want that, because you can just provide a separate preseed file, and pull down additional packages from the network. | 03:16 |
twb | Maybe he's shipping the ISO to people who don't have internet | 03:16 |
patdk-lap | ya, no idea what he wants :( | 03:16 |
* patdk-lap wonders exactly how you get a minimal gui though | 03:16 | |
SpamapS | isn't that what live helper does? | 03:16 |
twb | membrex: investigate "jigdo", which is a tool to create install CDs. | 03:16 |
twb | SpamapS: that generates live CDs. I assume he wants an install CD. | 03:17 |
twb | SpamapS: and it's called "live-build" now :-P | 03:17 |
membrex | soryy im newbie | 03:17 |
SpamapS | right | 03:17 |
membrex | but i have job to remastering ubuntu with minimal package incisde | 03:17 |
twb | SpamapS: last time I looked live-build wasn't tested on Ubuntu; do you have experience to the contrary? | 03:17 |
membrex | inside | 03:17 |
membrex | pckage that i want to include on new remastering distro is LAMP,firrefox, a lot off cms | 03:18 |
twb | membrex: why? | 03:18 |
SpamapS | twb: yes I have seen live-build used to great success just 2 days ago.. | 03:19 |
twb | SpamapS: OK, cool. | 03:19 |
twb | SpamapS: oh, I bet it uses casper for ubuntu | 03:19 |
SpamapS | twb: kirkland built a maverick live cd that runs a nice little eucalyptus demo | 03:19 |
SpamapS | yes it uses casper | 03:20 |
membrex | because the finnaly result will be delivery for education purpose that dont have any internet connection (to be intranet school server ) | 03:20 |
twb | Probably what I'm remembering is live-boot and live-config not working so well on Ubuntu | 03:20 |
SpamapS | dunno | 03:22 |
SpamapS | casper, last I checked, had a mountain of unfixed bugs | 03:22 |
twb | I don't think anyone is working on casper | 03:23 |
twb | Certainly live-boot kicks its ass on Debian | 03:23 |
* SpamapS does a little dance | 03:28 | |
SpamapS | I finally got "disable touchpad while typing" working!!! | 03:28 |

twb | SpamapS: synclient? | 03:29 |
twb | syndaemon -Rd | 03:29 |
twb | ...DTRT for me | 03:29 |
SpamapS | the issue was that I was using multitouch drivers | 03:30 |
SpamapS | which wouldn't listen to syndaemon | 03:30 |
twb | Ugh | 03:30 |
SpamapS | Apparently they do in the newest versions.. | 03:30 |
twb | Are these in non-free or something? | 03:30 |
twb | I haven't seen em | 03:30 |
SpamapS | but I'm holding off upgrading any further in natty until I get back home.. I don't dare upgrade X while on the road. ;) | 03:30 |
SpamapS | no they've been in xorg for a long time | 03:31 |
SpamapS | since early maverick cycle | 03:31 |
twb | I hear you, man. I'm still avoiding upgrading eeepc-acpi-scripts to the new acpi-scripts-based one | 03:31 |
twb | Oh, yeah, xserver-xorg-input-multitouch <none> 1.0~rc2-2 | 03:31 |
twb | First added in November last year. | 03:32 |
SpamapS | yeah.. some things are kind of cool.. but not worth not being able to type without wanting to kill somebody when you click send with a message content of 'r' | 03:34 |
twb | The easiest fix would be to not use X except for banking | 03:35 |
twb | That way the touchpad is automatically disabled | 03:35 |
SpamapS | :) | 03:35 |
twb | (Unfortunately my stupid CU's online doodad doesn't work with edbrowse :-/ ) | 03:36 |
SpamapS | I've oft considered going back to mutt + elinks ;) | 03:36 |

MadHaTTer_000 | thanks agai9n | 03:40 |
jmarsden | MadHaTTer_000: You're welcome. | 03:40 |
MadHaTTer_000 | hey that didnt work still dialing the wrong dns | 03:48 |
jmarsden | MadHaTTer_000: dialling? running off != dialling ... | 04:07 |
jmarsden | You don't "dial" a DNS server, normally :) | 04:07 |
twb | jmarsden: it might be running radius and pppd as well :P | 04:08 |
jmarsden | twb: It might be runnig mgetty-voice, too :) | 04:09 |
twb | Ooh | 04:09 |
jmarsden | MadHaTTer_000: pastebin /etc/resolv.conf somewhere we can see it, please. | 04:10 |

folklore | hows ubuntu server compare to freebsd | 04:12 |
folklore | any tried multiple, can give any insight | 04:12 |
jmarsden | folklore: They both work well. Use the one you know better. This channel is for Ubuntu server support. | 04:14 |
folklore | jmarsden do I need to change anything in ubuntu server righout the box to allow more than 10k connections? | 04:14 |
folklore | i'm not a huge linux person | 04:15 |
jmarsden | Then use BSD :) | 04:15 |
twb | folklore: 10k connections of what? | 04:15 |
folklore | twb concurrent, I wanna run some server software I wrote and it handle 10k if it needs too | 04:16 |
iggi | I can't imagine a connection limit at 10k, but I could be wrong | 04:16 |
folklore | I heard there was an artifical limit in terms of file handles or something that might block that | 04:16 |
SpamapS | c10k is old school... now its c1k, w/ 10 nodes in the cloud. ;) | 04:16 |
SpamapS | no | 04:16 |
SpamapS | there is no artificial limit | 04:16 |
SpamapS | linux's epoll in many ways has surpassed freebsd's kqueue .. the old stories you hear about linux concurrency issues were mostly just that.. stories. | 04:17 |
folklore | alrighty, i'll try and stress test it to see if I can get there, so thanks | 04:17 |
folklore | yeah my software uses epoll | 04:17 |
folklore | and glib thread poolin | 04:17 |
SpamapS | folklore: have seen a linux box w/ apache worker doing proxy for about 15,000 clients at once.. | 04:18 |
folklore | doesnt apache spawn forks or something though? | 04:18 |
SpamapS | folklore: this isn't that hard to test though. :) | 04:18 |
SpamapS | no | 04:18 |
folklore | guess another story I read | 04:19 |
SpamapS | apache prefork does | 04:19 |
folklore | lol | 04:19 |
SpamapS | apache worker spawns processes that spawn threads | 04:19 |
folklore | oh | 04:19 |
SpamapS | and apache event spans only threads | 04:19 |
SpamapS | spawns | 04:19 |
SpamapS | still, apache isn't known for massive scale when compared to some other daemons.. but 15k conns w/ minimal tuning is possible | 04:20 |
folklore | I wanna scale it to the max | 04:20 |
folklore | hope ubuntu server can do that for me | 04:20 |
SpamapS | fire up amazon aws.. pay about $5 and you can test the crap out of linux w/o any hardware. :) | 04:21 |
SpamapS | or use rackspace cloud and pay $4 for the same thing ;) | 04:21 |
MadHaTTer_000 | @spamaps doesnt tornado offer the same thing ur paying money for for free? | 04:49 |
iggi | When I try to start the storage pool with virsh pool-start I get permission deined, even with chmod 777 on the pool | 05:03 |
twb | And prefork is only necessary if you're daft enough to run PHP | 05:07 |
twb | iggi: is your user in the appropriate group? | 05:08 |
JanC | well, prefork has other advantages too ;) | 05:09 |
twb | JanC: you mean like heating a room? | 05:09 |
JanC | on linux processes don't have that much overhead over threads, but offer a lot more separation | 05:12 |
MadHaTTer_000 | iggi did u try chmod +x? | 05:13 |
twb | Hum | 05:13 |
MadHaTTer_000 | and did u run chmod as root? | 05:13 |
twb | The fill up my precious process table, though | 05:14 |

JanC | twb: both processes & threads are kernel tasks... ;) | 05:17 |
JanC | are tasks in the kernel, I mean | 05:17 |
twb | JanC: yeah, but I mean I want to list only userspace procs, i.e. suppress that [jdb-213:8] stuff | 05:18 |
JanC | twb: in htop it's 'K' | 05:19 |
twb | Bah | 05:19 |
twb | I'm not a fan of htop, apart from it being able to show the tree (i.e. like ps f) | 05:19 |
JanC | I like it because it has built-in configuration & help if I forgot a key etc. ;-) | 05:20 |
twb | JanC: so does top | 05:21 |
twb | Well, busybox top doesn't. | 05:21 |
twb | Coreutils top, or whatever Debian gives, does | 05:21 |
JanC | built-in help maybe, but not configuration AFAIK? | 05:21 |
twb | Well, top writes .toprc for you... | 05:22 |
twb | If you tell it to | 05:22 |
JanC | I mean like configuring what columns you want to see etc. | 05:22 |
twb | Yep | 05:22 |
twb | f, o, W | 05:23 |
twb | f toggles fields, o reorders them, W writes .toprc | 05:23 |
JanC | twb seems to have more features for that still, and top has no way to search for a process? | 05:27 |
twb | Define "search" | 05:28 |
JanC | find a process based on program name, e.g. to kill it or renice it? | 05:30 |
twb | Dunno | 05:30 |
twb | I normally just use < and > to change the sort column | 05:30 |
twb | To find pids I use pkill and pgrep | 05:30 |
twb | e.g. pkill -USR1 dd | 05:30 |
JanC | there are several ways to do things, I guess, and everybody uses what he/she prefers ☺ | 05:32 |
twb | They should use what *I* prefer, duh | 05:32 |

MadHaTTer_000 | in wvdial.conf | 09:40 |
MadHaTTer_000 | heres what my wvdial.conf looks like http://pastebin.com/iMx4Z9UC | 09:41 |
MadHaTTer_000 | any more ideas twb? | 09:44 |
twb | Nope, I only use pppd for PPPoA, PPPoE and (ugh!) pptp. | 09:45 |
twb | You would be looking in /etc/ppp/peers/<provider name> | 09:45 |
twb | I don't know anything about wvdial; I think it's just a wrapper that sets up /etc/ppp/ for you | 09:45 |
MadHaTTer_000 | yeah i hear that alot no one uses wvdial for ages but unfortunetly im stuck with this inet connection | 09:46 |
twb | You can always just write /etc/ppp stuff yourself, by hand | 09:46 |
twb | The main hurdle is taht it's not very well documented | 09:46 |
MadHaTTer_000 | yeah i already wrote resolv.conf what else? | 09:47 |
MadHaTTer_000 | i mean i already made a link to the passwordfd.so in lib which was suppiosed to fix this problem but it didnt | 09:52 |
twb | Uh... resolv.conf isn't going to do anything unless you can actually raise a ppp0 interface. | 09:52 |
twb | I have no idea what you think "passwordfd.so" is supposed to do | 09:52 |
MadHaTTer_000 | yeah i know but i finally got it to take the correct dns addresses | 09:53 |
twb | You should be reading the documentation in /usr/share/doc/pppd/ | 09:53 |
twb | If your dialup provider does the right thing, resolv.conf will be rewritten automatically. | 09:53 |
MadHaTTer_000 | this is y i made the link | 09:54 |
MadHaTTer_000 | http://www.betavine.net/bvportal/resources/datacards/help | 09:54 |
MadHaTTer_000 | closest thing i could find to a solution | 09:54 |
MadHaTTer_000 | hmm | 09:56 |
MadHaTTer_000 | this is what /var/log/messages says | 09:57 |
MadHaTTer_000 | kernel: [11996.958601] npviewer.bin[6117]: segfault at 418 ip 00000000f60c7d16 sp 00000000ffcd1838 error 6 in libflashplayer.so[f5e5a000+b5f000] | 09:57 |
twb | 20:53 <twb> You should be reading the documentation in /usr/share/doc/pppd/ | 09:57 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: that log is saying that flash crashed, it's not related to pppd. | 09:57 |
MadHaTTer_000 | ill take a look and see if ive already read it or not | 09:58 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: you should be reading system documentation BEFORE resorting to "random blog I found" | 09:58 |
MadHaTTer_000 | yeah that system doc ur talking about doesnt exist on my sys | 10:00 |
MadHaTTer_000 | it goes from pppconfig to pppoeconf | 10:01 |
MadHaTTer_000 | no pppd | 10:01 |
laen | Some quality Ubuntu support right here! ;) | 10:02 |
MadHaTTer_000 | ? | 10:02 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: then your system is buggered, because /usr/share/doc/ppp/ is full of documentation, provided by the ppp package, upon which pppoeconf depends. | 10:03 |
MadHaTTer_000 | ha b4 u said /pppd/ | 10:04 |
MadHaTTer_000 | not ppp | 10:04 |
twb | MadHaTTer_000: sorry, typo | 10:04 |
MadHaTTer_000 | so what should i be reading in here? | 10:05 |
twb | Probably start with README.Debian.gz if there is one | 10:05 |
MadHaTTer_000 | k i read it didnt help at all though | 10:25 |
MadHaTTer_000 | looks like the ps aux command might come in handy later | 10:39 |
laen | That is a strange thing to say. | 10:39 |
MadHaTTer_000 | how so? | 10:39 |
laen | As if ps is a special command to solve your problem :) | 10:40 |
MadHaTTer_000 | no haha but it will help with my problem which has to do with the pid | 10:41 |

kwork | hello, is there any good reason why not to instal postgres-8.3 from karmic to lucid? | 10:54 |
ikonia | kwork: yes, mixing repos breaks dependencies | 10:54 |
kwork | even if i setup the preferences file correctly? | 10:55 |
kwork | and assign low priority to karmic packages | 10:55 |
ikonia | kwork: your call, I wouldn't though | 10:55 |
kwork | what would be the "correct" way to install old-software to lucid then? | 10:55 |
ikonia | not to do it is the real way | 10:56 |
kwork | thats not an option at the moment | 10:56 |
ikonia | personally if you need an old package I'd have it built against the current dependencies of your distro | 10:56 |
ikonia | eg: say it uses libc v 1 in karmic, I'd have it built against libc v2 in lucid | 10:56 |

azizLIGHTS | does ubuntu server automatically update packages? | 17:18 |
patdk-wk | azizLIGHTS, only if you tell it to | 17:24 |
azizLIGHTS | because i notice it used to say 9 packages can be updated or something like that onlogin | 17:25 |
azizLIGHTS | now it doesnt say it anymore | 17:25 |
azizLIGHTS | how come | 17:25 |
patdk-wk | that isn't autoupdate | 17:31 |
patdk-wk | must be the nightly cron is failing that does apt-get update, or the login status printer doesn't work (or load is too high so it doesn't run) | 17:31 |
patdk-wk | none of mine print that info though, but I always install minimal | 17:32 |
patdk-wk | looks like you have to have landscape installed to get that info | 17:36 |
g0bl1n | What is the best way to be sure a document is printed and got no errors ? | 17:38 |
g0bl1n | our app needs to print 20.000 documents and if any is not printed, we have a problem (invoices) | 17:39 |
patdk-wk | compare the printed document to the origional? | 17:41 |
g0bl1n | I want the printing service to report upon error | 17:42 |
g0bl1n | where should I head? CUPS ? | 17:42 |
azizLIGHTS | patdk-wk: whats wrong with my systrem then? hows to fix it | 17:43 |
patdk-wk | azizLIGHTS, I dunno, and doesn't mean anything is wrong, I just listed like 5 different possibilities | 17:44 |
azizLIGHTS | how can nightly apt-get update fail? it knows i havent installed 9 packages uptodate, how can it "forget" even if next update failed | 17:45 |

patdk-wk | what gives you that message your *missing* | 17:46 |
azizLIGHTS | how to check? | 17:46 |
patdk-wk | dunno, never used launchpad | 17:47 |
azizLIGHTS | $ dpkg -l launchpad | 17:47 |
azizLIGHTS | No packages found matching launchpad. | 17:47 |
azizLIGHTS | $ dpkg -l | grep "launchpad" | 17:48 |

azizLIGHTS | hmm | 17:48 |
patdk-wk | landscape :) | 17:48 |
laen | Ewww. | 17:48 |
patdk-wk | it's landscape not launchpad | 17:48 |
azizLIGHTS | oh | 17:48 |
patdk-wk | I said that way above but oyu ignored it, then I confused myself | 17:48 |
laen | Landscape, so you can see what the weather is at the datacenter every login. | 17:48 |
azizLIGHTS | yes i see it | 17:49 |
azizLIGHTS | two packages: landscape-client and landscape-common | 17:49 |

patdk-wk | laen, only if the server at the datacenter knows where it's located :) | 17:49 |
azizLIGHTS | this came in the ami lol what to do | 17:49 |
patdk-wk | laen, ya I don't use it, based on my build systems apt-get ugrade, and the security maillist, don't see the point\ | 17:49 |
laen | Such a bish to remove and fix it so the company MOTD is displayed correctly. | 17:50 |
laen | Indeed. | 17:50 |
azizLIGHTS | so basically landscape broke? | 17:50 |
azizLIGHTS | for me | 17:50 |
patdk-wk | that is easy, kill update-motd | 17:50 |
laen | Remove it, you don't need landscape. | 17:50 |
azizLIGHTS | patdk-wk: isthat command for me "kill update-motd" | 17:50 |
patdk-wk | that isn't a command | 17:51 |
azizLIGHTS | is it for me though? | 17:51 |
azizLIGHTS | to do | 17:51 |

azizLIGHTS | patdk-wk: i see | 17:53 |
patdk-wk | landscape-sysinfo | 17:54 |
laen | RyanP: wish i was at work, i could hand you the examples. Should be in the docs though. | 17:54 |
azizLIGHTS | patdk-wk: landscape-sysinfo shows correctly on login, its the part about how many package updates there are that is missing/disappear | 17:55 |
azizLIGHTS | maybe it is landscape-package-reporter, it is giving LOTS ERRORS | 17:55 |
RyanP | laen: I have been through the documents. What I could find for preseed was rather sparse. Were you using kickstart or preseed to create the partitions? | 17:56 |

kirkland | lynxman: honestly, this is what ensemble promises to solve ;-) | 19:13 |
lynxman | kirkland: hehe | 19:13 |
lynxman | kirkland: no need to sell me on that, I'm game :) | 19:14 |
mklappstuhl | hey | 19:15 |
mklappstuhl | can anyone point me to a guide that tells me how to setup ubuntu-server as a kvm guest? (not ubuntu as host) | 19:16 |
patdk-wk | hmm, you just install it? | 19:16 |
patdk-wk | the whole point of a kvm guest, is it's no different from a real computer | 19:16 |
mklappstuhl | patdk-wk: yeah, but i'd like to setup virtio for example | 19:17 |
mklappstuhl | so i need to add kernel modules | 19:17 |
patdk-wk | mklappstuhl, what version of ubuntu? | 19:19 |
mklappstuhl | 10.10 | 19:19 |
patdk-wk | should be installed already | 19:20 |
mklappstuhl | i need to rebuild the initramfs with virtio included etc. | 19:20 |
mklappstuhl | patdk-wk: ah, okay o.O :D | 19:20 |
patdk-wk | you shouldn't have to | 19:20 |
patdk-wk | atleast my 10.04 has them all installed, in -generic they are modules, installer will put them into initramfs | 19:20 |
patdk-wk | and in -server they are mostly all compiled in | 19:21 |
zul | hallyn: ping | 19:41 |

zul | hallyn: so i want to get lxcguest but i have to do a mir for lxcguest and lxc is that kosher with you? | 19:42 |
hallyn | sure. | 19:43 |
hallyn | i thought lxc was in main | 19:43 |
hallyn | hm, guess not | 19:43 |
hallyn | zul: not sure if we want to do something like not install lxc-cap... | 19:44 |
zul | ok ill get cracking on it | 19:46 |
sdudenhofer | is there a way to reset what i have changed to my openssl setup? to reset back to default? | 19:46 |
patdk-wk | openssl setup? | 19:46 |
patdk-wk | I think the only posible changes are opensl.cnf | 19:47 |

sdudenhofer | I followed this community documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL would me changing file location from where it first asks to create the file to the one that is already included in /usr/lib/ssl screw something up? | 19:50 |
sdudenhofer | thats probably really confusing | 19:57 |
sdudenhofer | are there official docs for setting openssl up to generate a CSR is this what you should use? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL | 20:06 |
JasonMSP | sdudenhofer: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/certificates-and-security.html | 20:09 |

david506 | I did a debootstrap installation of my computer, but I am stuck because the grub boot loader won't install. I run dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc, it asks for "linux command line" which is blank, it than asks for default command line, "quiet splash", immediately followed by "Continue without installing GRUB?". On an existing machine, there is an extra page "GRUB install devices". Why do I not see this page when installing this maching ? TH | 20:44 |

SystemTyrant | I'm curious if any of you use ubuntu server for mission critical applications and whether or not you have a paid support agreement in place? | 21:10 |
=== guntbert is now known as whoelse | ||
Jeeves_ | SystemTyrant: I know 100's of mission critical servers running ubuntu | 21:11 |
Jeeves_ | without a support agreement | 21:11 |
=== whoelse is now known as guntbert | ||
Jeeves_ | (Ow, and I use it myself too :)) | 21:11 |
SystemTyrant | Jeeves_: Do you know what any of them are used for? ie file server, database server, etc? | 21:12 |
Jeeves_ | databases, webserver, ftp, online back-up, fileserver, virtualisation servers | 21:13 |
Jeeves_ | Just about anything, really | 21:13 |
SystemTyrant | Thanks Jeeves. | 21:13 |
Jeeves_ | SystemTyrant: I've got no clue how the Canonical support is | 21:14 |
Jeeves_ | But I haven't heard any complaints about it either :) | 21:14 |
SystemTyrant | I'm about to embark on moving our document storage over to Nuxeo DM which will be on ubuntu lts servers and will have postgresql backends (also on ubuntu servers). | 21:15 |
Jeeves_ | Sounds good | 21:16 |
SystemTyrant | I like ubuntu, but I've never really had the chance to talk to anybody actually running them in production or as mission critical. I figured people have to be somewhere. :) | 21:16 |
SystemTyrant | And of course pretty much all of it will be run without paid product support. | 21:16 |
bluefrog | without product support? | 21:21 |
bluefrog | would be irresponsible not to have support, how come you don't have any? | 21:22 |
bobsapp | anyone got any idea on how to remote monitor linux hosts with nagios? | 22:30 |

andygraybeal | if you guys don't mind holding my hand, i have a newb question. i want my girl to be able to change chown and chmod some files, but only in a certain directory and every directory under that (recursively) .. but i don't want her to be able to do this on any other files! if that makes sense. | 22:39 |
andygraybeal | how do i go about doing that? | 22:39 |
david506 | I want to have my text console at a resolution of 1280x1024, I read I need to add vga=794, but every time I boot with that in the kernel line, the monitor says "out of sync" | 22:41 |
lenios | andygraybeal, if you make her owner of this directory, it should work as expected | 22:55 |
andygraybeal | lenios, ah interesting, thank you; even if she isn't owner of the files inside of the directory? | 22:57 |
andygraybeal | what if she is part of the group that is owner of the directory? | 22:57 |
lenios | you must first give her owner | 22:57 |
lenios | you can chown -R | 22:58 |
andygraybeal | okay, thank you :) | 22:59 |
lenios | chown and chmod should only work for current user, not group | 22:59 |
warrenchild | hello everyone!!! I have a question!! I set up a PPTP VPN using unbuntu server and it works perfectly!! I was wondering though how many people can connect at one time? | 23:04 |
warrenchild | I have added more than one user and password, and they both work as well. | 23:05 |

ENOSLEEP | warrenchild: that's going to depend on the amount of RAM, your CPU and your network connection. You do realize that PPTP is not an encrypted connection, right? | 23:14 |
warrenchild | hmmm | 23:16 |
warrenchild | so I shoud use another? | 23:16 |
warrenchild | what one is just as easy to set up that is encrypted | 23:16 |
warrenchild | I though it was encrypted | 23:16 |
warrenchild | thought* | 23:16 |
warrenchild | enosleep: what do you sugest? | 23:17 |
dustg | easiest temporary thing is ssh proxy. | 23:18 |
