boxybrownany idea why I would be able to login to gnome with a local user, but not an NIS authenticated user?01:21
twbDoes it work in login(8)01:22
boxybrowntwb: let me check01:34
boxybrowntwb: i'm not exactly sure how to test this..., keeps complaining about 'cannot possibly work without effective root'?01:37
twbI don't know what that means or where you're seeing it.01:37
boxybrowntwb: i have an ssh session open on the machine.  I'm trying 'login username' and 'exec login username'.01:38
twbUh, are you root?01:38
twbAlso, it's "login", not "login username".01:39
twbOtherwise you're not testing pam nis auth, are you?01:39
boxybrownI'm not using pam nis, just nis01:39
twbYou *are* using PAM.01:40
boxybrownhaha, okay01:40
twbUnless you're on Windows or OS X or something, in which case you can go ask another channel..01:40
boxybrownwell, i never messed with any of the pam configuration stuff. permissions and such is all set through the usual /etc/passwd, shadow, sudoers channels01:41
boxybrownand nsswitch.conf01:41
boxybrownI can't get a hold of the user who claimed they couldn't login.  However, with my login I have the following problem: I CAN login at the GUI as an nis authenticated user, but the xsession is all messed up.  The theme is wrong, the mouse works but mouse clicks do not.01:44
boxybrownLogging in as a local admin user everything is fine.01:44
twbThat doesn't sound like a server issue.01:45
boxybrownwell, its on the ubuntu-server distro01:48

twbIf a Unix program emits no output, that means it succeeded.03:02
WirelssNotshould i restart? because nothing changed. still "no network connection" when i hover over wireless icon with red exclamation mark03:03
twbUh, once you unblock the wifi you need to raise the interface.03:09
twbWhich would be "ip link set hp-wifi up" and "dhclient hp-wifi", or possibly wpasupplicant, but because you're in a GUI I don't know.  Probably NM plays silly buggers.03:10

hallynDaviey: thanks for pointing it out.  I hadn't thought of it12:51
Davieyhallyn, Hmm.. if we don't /need/ it, we can move it from Recommends to Suggests meaning we don't need to to MIR it12:52
Davieyzul or jdstrand, With your work on libvirt, have you seen a need for us to carry ebtables?12:53

david506Hey, I have a program running on tty1, how can I remove the login from tty1 ? ( ubuntu 10.04 lts )13:33
zulDaviey: i wouldnt drop it13:33
Davieyzul, We either need to MIR it, or drop it to Suggests.13:33
Davieyzul, it's currently universe.13:34
Davieyzul, If we don't /need/ it, we shouldn't MIR it IMO.13:34
zulDaviey: gah13:34
Davieyzul, being a recommends of libvirt in Debian suggests to me we probably don't need it.13:34
zulright drop it to suggests for now when its needed again we will do the MIR13:35
Davieyzul, i /suspect/ it will be needed next cycle13:36
zulDaviey: oh i *know* it will be needed in the next cycle13:36
Davieyzul, a universe package you care about explicitly Depends on it, so it'll get installed anyway.13:37
zulDaviey: right13:37
zulDaviey: well worry about it then...im in agreement13:37
Davieygroovy.13:38
jdstrandDaviey: aiui, ebtables should not be explicitly required, which is why it is Recommends. you can read about what it does here: http://libvirt.org/firewall.html13:53
* jdstrand should really look at that in more depth13:53
Davieyjdstrand, oh aye, i read that page.. i just wondered if you knew of anyone that would scream if it was demoted to Suggests13:55
Davieyjdstrand, as it's a new thing, i doubt it13:55
jdstrandDaviey: no. I doubt anyone would really notice in terms of install images. curious why you want that delta?13:56
Davieyjdstrand, ebtables is in Universe13:58
Davieyjdstrand, Don't want to MIR it unless we /need/ it.13:59
Daviey(This cycle at least, next cycle i think we will need it)13:59
jdstrandDaviey: hmm, I guess I forgot the policy on Recommends vs Suggests wrt MIR13:59
sorenebtables are in universe?14:00
jdstrandie, while a package in main has a Recommends will install it if universe is enabled, if universe is not enabled it won't14:00
Davieysoren, yes14:00
sorensrsly? How the heck does Eucalyptus protect against arp/mac/ip spoofing?14:01
jdstrandand it shouldn't, afaik, affect cd image buildability14:01
Davieyjdstrand, Well.. yes.. it's like a soft depends i guess... should be renamed to 'flood-my-machine-with-stuff-i-don't-need:"14:01
zulsoren: magic! :)14:01
Davieyjdstrand, lemme check with the release team14:02
sorenzul: I remember how Eucalyptus' magic works.14:02
soren:)14:02
zulsoren: hehe14:02
sorenREcommends needs MIRs for sure.14:02
sorenebtables in universe is silly. The filtering (i.e. the tricky bits) are in the kernel. ebtables is just a tool to adjust the stuff in the kernel.14:04
Davieysoren, that is what i thought... but jdstrand raises a valid point.  Just checking from the release team14:04
phsiI want to prefer same-version packages from a certain mirror, is this possible with pinning?14:04
Davieysoren, For natty, it shouldn't matter - right?14:04
sorenDaviey: Whether ebtables is in main? Not that I know of...14:04
Davieysoren, For -compute, it depends on it already.. so will still get pulled in.14:06
sorenDaviey: Certainly.14:06
sorenDaviey: But (again, this is just AFAIK) that's unrelated to its being-in-main-ness.14:07
jdstrandDaviey: fwiw, I think a MIR on ebtables is long overdue, and would be easy to achieve14:08
Davieyjdstrand, I totally agree... and natty+1 i think it will be one of the first things we chase i expect14:09
jdstrandDaviey: there are no CVEs in the userspace tool: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=ebtables14:09

azizLIGHTSwhats the point of the iso i downloaded when it wants to use the internet to retrieve files in setup14:23
joschiazizLIGHTS: you have to boot something, don't you? there are also minimal CDs which only contain the boot files and the debian installer and everything else is being fetched from the net14:29
azizLIGHTSbut the iso is like 700mb, thats all botting?14:30
thesheff17_azizLIGHTS: The full iso cd doesn't even require you to configure networking. so if anything is down with the internet is option during install.14:31
thesheff17_azizLIGHTS: the iso contains tons of software....at the end you can select all types of extra packages that are contained on the cd.14:31

fakhiriggi, no i have not. to you have a recommended io test application?20:21

Disconnectyah20:23
thesheff17but yes getting it correct was very aggravating.20:23
photerraniggi: iostat reports io subsystem usage, its not a benchmark as far as I know.20:23
photerrani find it helpful in diagnosing a live system (where running a benchmark may not be practical or even possible)20:24
photerranfakhir: also you might try the 'top' command, which does not require any additional packages20:25
fakhirphoterran, top does show much beyond what i included in my question. i will test some of the io applications out there. thanks.20:26
photerranif top shows a large CPU Wait % then iostat may help track down the cause20:28
Disconnectany app that is waiting for anything -could- be contributing to load. unless the system is sluggish or otherwise behaving badly, load itself isn't a bad thing.20:28

tsrktwb: it'd be better if i could find the answer =P23:39
kklimondatsrk: are you sure it's being killed? upstart should send the TERM signal first, then wait X seconds (defined by kill timeout) before sending KILL23:40

tsrki don't know much about upstart so i might be doing something horribly wrong23:43
twbpre-stop exec timeout 20s sleep 3023:47
twbAIUI the "kill timeout 60" means that it waits 60s after sending a HUP to the *script* pid (not pre-stop/start script), before giving up waiting and sending a TERM23:47
twbYeah init(5) confirms that interpretation23:48
twbtsrk: in other words, "kill timeout" has no effect on your "sleep 30"23:49
kklimondait's actually TERM and then KILL23:50
tsrktwb: ok, trying that, one sec23:50
twbTERM is 15 isn't it?23:51
kklimondatwb: yes23:51
tsrktwb: i put the "sleep 30" in a script because the real stuff will be in a script in the config file. how can i apply a timeout to the whole script?23:51
twbtsrk: timeout 30s sh -c 'your whole script'23:51
twbtsrk: or timeout 30s /usr/share/foo/foo.sh23:52
tsrktwb: i tried this: "pre-stop exec timeout 60s sleep 30", but it still reboots immediately23:53
twbDefine "reboots"23:54
twbAre you issuing "initctl reload-configuration" after each edit?23:54
tsrktwb: i've been using the "reboot" command to reboot the vm, and it comes back online within 10-15 seconds23:54
hallynkirkland: looking at bug 723871, would you agree that's worth pursuing a FFE ?23:54

twbreboot doesn't reread the config file IIRC23:54
hallynDaviey: ^23:54
tsrktwb: no.... that might be one problem23:55
twbYou need to stop and then start23:55

juanito1hola23:55
Davieyhallyn, why would it need a FFe?23:56
tsrktwb: even after reloading, it still reboots immediately23:56
