[03:57] thesheff17: i was curious why all the guides online spoke of 7.10 [03:58] resno: I'm sure you can still use it....though if there is a problem it won't be patched. [03:59] well, the conf files arent showing up. /etc/default/fetchmail, is only for setting up dameon mode.. [04:02] resno: I see some saying getmail is a good alternative but personally I don't have any experience with either. [04:02] i dont want to use getmail... [04:02] ive tried it, works well. but not really the method im looking for [04:03] hello, I'd like to rerun the portion of the install lets the user choose metapackages like DNS server and LAMP server. Is that possible? [04:04] dthacker: tasksel --section server [04:04] thesheff17: thanks [04:06] resno: well I would spin up a ubuntu 7.04 and get the config files off there or try to find them on the web.....like I said I don't have experience with either.

[09:56] hm? [09:56] On my router, I get "Welcome to Ubuntu!", on my servers I get "Welcome to the Ubuntu Server!" [09:57] The router runs -generic because it can't boot -server kernel variant [09:57] It crashes because of lack of PAE in the hardware or something [09:57] Because there are many Ubuntu derivatives, but only one Ubuntu Server! ;) [09:57] SpamapS: I was thinking it was because of the silly assumption that only has one Ubuntu server [09:57] twb: whoa.. PAE is like.. old [09:58] SpamapS: it's an embedded x86 board, what am I gonna do [09:58] it's not like the board itself can take more than 512MB RAM [09:58] (Soekris net5501) [09:58] twb: the definite article is actually probably just because a non-native speaker wrote it. [09:59] SpamapS: what, in English? [09:59] I'm going to guess a French Canadian.. the translation tends to encourage such additions of The. [09:59] Haha [09:59] You're not one of those .ca canonical support people, are you? [09:59] not me.. but I am working with the canonical support, all the day. [09:59] Haha [10:00] I have this image of you listening to their on-hold music on speakerphone while you're ircing for REAL support [10:02] twb: Seeing as I'm at the 3rd level of escalation beyond said support.. I take that personally ;) [10:18] SpamapS: what issue are you actually trying to get fixed? [10:25] twb: none, when did I ever say I was trying to get an issue fixed? [10:26] SpamapS: what, you're just talking them for the fun of it? [10:26] Its part of the job of being on the server team that we help them. [10:27] twb: if you hadn't noticed, I'm a member of the canonical server team. [10:27] I hadn't [10:27] Oh, I see, you mean "I *am* the third-level support" [10:28] I thought you meant "I'm talking to them" [10:28] Indeed. [10:28] Here, third-level support is the sales team [10:28] Another Misunderstanding(tm) brought to you by the letters, I, R, and C. [10:29] Because after we struggle to fix a problem, they come past and translate from user-speak into meaningful terms [10:29] Like today, said the server didn't have video codecs on it, but the actual problem was that they were trying to play a DVD which didn't have the movie as the first track, and their player didn't support DVD menus [10:30] At Canonical, level 1 is guys who can help you find docs, bugs reports, etc. Level 2 is guys who can create workarounds, and level 3 is ubuntu developers. ;) [10:31] twb: its tough when customers decide they know what the issue is and won't let go of their idea. === kirkland` is now known as kirkland [10:31] it's even tougher when the vendor doesn't beleive the customer :) [10:31] It didn't help that their words appeared to make sense, because we actually implement this weird thing where DVDs get ripped onto the server [10:32] SpamapS: made it home okay? [10:33] greppy: yeh. I didn't believe you could get a TGT when using pam_winbind (not pam_krb5), but apparently you can o_O [10:33] kirkland: yes! Just woke up from the jetlag coma. [10:33] I didn't believe that until I saw it [10:33] kirkland: you mid-return or still in CPT ?

I tried the --chuid option of start-stop-daemon but it won't use the .pgpass file of this user (which hiolds the password needed) [11:06] Whoops, just rebooted the VM server by accident [11:20] Fortunately LXC (and upstart) boot *really* quickly; from ctrl+alt+del to was like three minutes [11:21] I've seen Windows admins hit ctrl+alt+del to login to linux machines... [11:21] disabling ctrl+alt+del can be a good idea :P [11:21] A friend of mine changed it to play a .wav file. [11:22] greppy, genius :) [11:27] The problem was we have a PS/2 DB-15 KVM, but this fucking bios won't accept a PS/2 keyboard for some reason [11:27] So I am typing into a USB keyboard and *thinking* I'm looking at the screen, but I was on the wrong KVM port [11:28] greppy: lol :) [11:41] jhunt: around?

[14:58] ClaudiuT, if it's on a server and you have to have guarantee that it will start back up after a reboot, VirtualBox is probably not the right solution--it really is built for desktop users [15:04] jamespage, Do you think bug #669739 qualifies for SRU?

[16:58] it /looks/ ok [16:58] but then i started scratching my head.

[17:13] The checkport function really needs a bit of a refactor (not major IMHO) to accomodate the use of -1 for the control port. [17:14] zul, backuppc FTBFS [17:14] if you're going to call it a valid TCP port number you probably also need to check that it is between 0 and 65535 too [17:14] Daviey: yes i know [17:14] jamespage: -1 means what? [17:14] disabled [17:15] ah I see thats already checked for [17:17] jamespage: IMO this reads simpler and feels less hacky: if ! echo $port | grep -q "^[0-9]+$" ; then [17:20] hmm thats not quite right [17:20] I'm going to set up a dedicated mysql server. Would it be better to use 64-bit? [17:22] oneseventeen: probably yes, since the only real reasons to not use 64-bits when you have them, is to save on RAM with systems under 2GB available [17:23] s/reasons/reason/ [17:24] SpamapS: thanks. I'll probably only be throwing 2 or 3GB of RAM at first to this system. [17:28] oneseventeen: right, but if you can expand the RAM, definitely do 64-bit [17:28] oneseventeen: otherwise mysqld itself wont' be able to grow beyond 2GB [17:29] that doesn't change teh volume of data I can store though, just the resources the daemon can use? [17:30] jamespage: FYI I commented on the MP for bug #707405 [17:30] Launchpad bug 707405 in tomcat6 "tomcat6-instance-create should allow -c -1" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/707405 [17:30] I plan on creating a partition dedicated to mysql databases... is it hard to configure MySQL to use it? [17:30] SpamapS: thanks [17:34] oneseventeen: not at all.. you may want to just mount that partition at /var/lib/mysql [17:35] oneseventeen: but if you don't want to do that.. just set datadir=/your/mount/point in /etc/mysql/my.cnf [17:35] SpamapS: thanks. it has been a while since I've done any *real* linux work, so I forget how simple it can be to just mount the drive in the right place. [17:36] just creating the volume now on the SAN, then I'll just mount it to /var/lib/mysql during setup. [17:36] oneseventeen: just make sure /etc/fstab is setup right :) [17:36] I'm hoping/assuming that if I do this during setup that it will configure fstab properly for me... :) === zeknox_ is now known as zeknox [17:36] * oneseventeen is naieve at times [17:37] oneseventeen: no it definitely will [17:39] ooh, one more critical question... if I increase the size of the drive can I tell ubuntu to rescan the drive then use the newly allocated space? [17:42] oneseventeen: make sure you setup with "LVM" and you can do that. [17:42] oneseventeen: oh on a SAN you may be able to do it w/o LVM [17:43] SpamapS: well, teh point is the SAN can expand the volume, but the OS needs to then take up the rest of that volume. [17:44] basically just resizing/expanding the partition. [17:44] oneseventeen: yeah so you will just have to run fdisk and grow the partition.. then resize2fs (or whatever your chosen FS uses for resizing) [17:45] oneseventeen: but yes, the only thing Linux has a hard time with is resizing / .. which.. I've never understood why someone hasn't solved. [18:01] smoser, any change of genninga the Lucid proposed kernel for ec2? [18:03] genninga ? [18:04] hggdh, ^ [18:04] generating [18:04] genninga was a weirdly unexpected decision from my keyboard [18:04] for lucid i would just say use the -proposed from the archives [18:04] and then when we push to -updates it will get there appropriately [18:04] * oneseventeen is just going to go with a 64GB mysql partition and hope it lasts long enough for him to figure out how to grow it in the future. :) [18:05] smoser, perfect. I am, unfortunately, still utterly lost on which kernels need an ec2 image. I am guessing it is only hardy & karmic, correct? [18:06] well, yes, both hardy and karmic will need akis published [18:06] for lucid, we will continue to do that [18:06] (publish the akis, but they're ont used by default) [18:07] in maverick+ there is only aki [18:07] err... only pv-grub [18:07] So I ran this command in terminal on my Ubuntu machine, gvfs-mount smb://etc/etc/etc and it changed my prompt to $. Users were trying to help me suggesting it changed something in bashrc, but I logged on another Ubuntu machine on our Windows domain and sure enough, I have the $ there too, so it's clearly not machine-dependent but something happened on the domain itself. Any ideas?? [18:08] Should be interesting spending six months working on "oneiric" .. :) [18:08] for hardy (and after this, for karmic) you should test the kernels by booting with a pv-grub kernel and installing kernels and rebooting. [18:09] smoser, so, for testing from now on all I need is boot, add in -proposed, install, reboot. Correct? [18:10] erbngeek_, hardy/karmic need the --kernel [18:10] smoser, ^ [18:10] erbngeek_, sorry for the ping (now twice) [18:11] hmm.....samba 3.5.8 is out [18:11] hggdh, yes. but if you want to boot into the older kernel (after install) you'll have to modify /boot/grub/menu.lst [18:12] smoser, thank you [18:13] Roasted_: please don't cross post, you posted this in #ubuntu [18:14] you're right, I did. But I'm curious if the folk here could assist me since it very well may be a server related issue. [18:14] are you running an ubuntu server ? [18:14] no, but I'm curious if the users here would have happened to have ran into it prior. [18:14] ok, so you're not running an ubuntu server, then this channel isn't appropriate [18:14] where do you suggest I ask this question, ikon [18:14] ikonia, [18:15] #ubuntu is the best place [18:15] okay, I shall continue to ask my question in there until an answer is had. [18:15] thank you [18:15] welcome [18:15] :)( [18:15] :) [18:26] New bug: #730786 in php5 (main) "package php5-cgi 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.14 failed to install/upgrade:" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/730786 [18:31] is it possible to add locations to index with locate/updatedb? [18:32] panfist: it's a config file, then you run updatedb [18:33] panfist: /etc/updatedb.conf ? [18:34] i see, thanks [18:35] i have an instance of ubuntu server running on a physical machine on my home network, the purpose of it is primarily to serve a raid array over samba [18:36] i used to have the raid array mounted in /media because that seems to be the default location for random stuff to mount, but what would be a better place to mount it more permanently? [18:36] i was thinking /srv/samba/foo or something like that [18:37] should i actually mount it there or mount it somewhere else and symlink it [18:37] have any of you mounted iSCSI targets in Ubuntu-server? is it possible? [18:37] * oneseventeen has never used iSCSI in Ubuntu [18:38] oneseventeen: yes, ubuntu can act as an iscsi client or server [18:44] oneseventeen, I do it all the time [18:44] I just never attempted root iscsi till recently :) [18:46] New bug: #730817 in krb5 (main) "Please sync krb5-1.8.3+dfsg-5 from Debian Unstable." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/730817 [18:48] patdk-wk: are there any guides I can read on how to mount them? [18:49] http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-setup-debian-ubuntu-linux-iscsi-initiator/ [18:49] beautiful, thanks! [18:50] one final (I hope) question before I get started: does anyone use Ubuntu in a VMware VM? [18:50] I'm trying to decide between the default E1000 NIC or VMXNET 3 NIC [18:50] always use vmxnet3 [18:50] and pvscsi :) [18:50] atleast if your on esx 4.1, don't use pvscsi on 4.0 [18:51] that's what I do on Windows, but I normally need to isntall drivers... do I need to install Drivers on ubuntu for this NIC? [18:52] nope [18:52] I load up 10.04 with vmxnet3 and pvscsi without modifications [18:52] what is pvscsi? [18:52] same for windows, but have to load the pvscsi floppy disk :( [18:52] faster disk access [18:52] it's the equiv of vmxnet3 for disks [18:53] so is that in my SCSI controller settings? [18:53] ya, scsi adaptor, change type [18:53] is it the VMware paravirtual? [18:53] yep [18:53] paravirtual scsi [18:54] sweet, got it all set up. [18:58] New bug: #730469 in samba (main) "samba not working for printer sharing with VirtualBox" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/730469 [19:02] patdk-wk: any other tips before I create this VM? [19:03] (system drive will be on a VMDK, but a MySQL data volume will be iSCSI mount) [19:03] nope [19:03] I wonder what would perform better though [19:04] vm->iscsi, or vm->disk (vmdk->iscsi) [19:04] guess it depends on how well you tune esx for iscsi luns [19:06] I'm just mounting my iSCSI volume directly in the VM so I can grow it easier in the future. [19:07] hello [19:08] anyone here? [19:08] a few people are popping in and out. [19:08] Nope, we're all gone. [19:10] but you are welcome to ask a question in case we come back. [19:10] Just asking [19:11] If anyone here available to help me [19:12] feel free to ask a question and perhaps someone will respond if they know it. [19:12] This is ubuntu support, right? Can I ask anything related to hosting websites... etc? [19:12] (I'm picking up Ubuntu-Server for the first time in several months, so I'm not a great source) [19:13] This is the ubuntu-server chat room filled with ubuntu-server users who like to help each other out. [19:14] ok [19:14] but I'm sure several of us here have hosted websites using ubuntu-server. [19:14] what's your question? [19:14] ok [19:15] I have an ubuntu server, but without a control panel. [19:15] So only apache on it. [19:15] I want to add my site on it, but I don't know how. [19:17] I don't have a vanilla install handy, but I think the default website is located at /var/www/ [19:17] so if you put files in there, you should be able to see them when you type the server's IP in a web browser. [19:17] yes [19:18] when i got to my ip [19:18] na, he wants something to config the server for him [19:18] like ebox I think it's called [19:18] !ebox [19:18] 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 [19:18] i can add files, html page to my ip...that means my apache server is working...but what I want is to add my domain to it [19:19] so you want people from the outside world to type in your domain and see the site hosted on your Ubuntu box? [19:19] yes oneseventeen [19:20] Are you hosting this at your home or at a business? [19:20] (I ask because at home you usually don't have a static IP that is usable from the outside world... it changes every few weeks depending on your ISP) [19:20] Now I installed the apache on my server and when I go to my ip i see the webpage and it is working as it should...But I want to add my domain to it so anyone can see the content [19:20] Not hosted on home [19:21] It's hosted on some web hosting company [19:22] do you already have the domain? [19:22] yes [19:23] normally you can go into a management site for your domain (from whoever you purchased it from) to have them point it to your IP [19:23] Okay [19:24] * oneseventeen hasn't messed with DNS/domain registration outside of shared hosting... hope he gave ok advice [19:25] * patdk-wk runs his own dns servers [19:25] apparently apt-get intsall doesn't work... [19:27] oneseventeen: "doesn't work" is rather vague. [19:28] jpds, looks good to me :) [19:28] mispelled install [19:28]
