[01:13] <CyberKnet> my router has no provision to ignore inbound traffic from a certain ip address ... is there a way to tell my myth box to do so?
[01:14] <CyberKnet> some ip in Bejing is hammering my machine.
[01:15] <mycosys> yeah - iptables
[01:15] <mycosys> just set that ip to drop
[01:19] <CyberKnet> looking into it
[01:21] <CyberKnet> hmmm....
[01:24] <CyberKnet> as in - iptables -I INPUT -i eth1 -s "218.30.5.19" -j DROP
[01:24] <CyberKnet> ?
[01:26] <qwebirc30608> Greetings, all.  I'm relatively new to linux and brand new to mythbuntu.  All I need is a very simple, compatible, PCI or PCIe-X1 tuner card that will receive ATSC over the air, no cable, no satellite.  Any recommendations?
[01:28] <mycosys> looks about right cybernet, since ur telling it to insert iirc you need to tell it at what line?
[01:29] <CyberKnet> no, I've never messed with iptables before...
[01:29] <CyberKnet> I googled ban iptables and that's what came up.
[01:30] <CyberKnet> (I subbed in the IP Address)

[01:47] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about iptables
[01:47] <mycosys> !firewall
[01:47] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about firewall
[01:47] <mycosys> there is a firewall control in mcc
[01:49] <CyberKnet> I installed fail2ban
[01:50] <CyberKnet> seems to be controlling things nicely now...
[01:50] <CyberKnet> nice looking package!
[02:09] <patdk-lap> just don't get hit via ipv6 :)

[05:16] <Rebecca> hey peoples, im trying to install mythbuntu 10.10 and it is presenting me with a login prompt after i select either install or try.
[05:16] <Rebecca> is this normal and if so, what login details should I be using?
[05:19] <Rebecca> If i hit escape then I briefly view the live cd desktop (if i selected try) but very quickly that changes to a blank screen containing just a cursor
[05:49] <Rebecca> im guessing this isn't normal.. burning a new cd on a different computer..
[07:02] <Rebecca> still doing the same thing
[07:02] <Rebecca> hmmmm
[07:02] <Rebecca> why is it presenting me with a login :/
[07:09] <rhpot1991> Rebecca: sounds like something is failing and throwing you to the login
[07:09] <rhpot1991> could try ubuntu as the user
[07:09] <rhpot1991> and no password
[07:10] <rhpot1991> Rebecca: #ubuntu may be a better place to ask, as thats a general installer issue
[07:23] <Rebecca> ok
[08:17] <Rebecca> hmmm, i think the cause of the problem might be the 'hdd' im using.. which is a ghetto SSD; a 8GB CF drive connected via a CF-IDE adapter. i have used it in the past but looks like the current version of mythtv doesn't like it.. i'll get a real SSD tomorrow and re-try
[08:35] <mycosys> should be fine rebecca
[08:35] <mycosys> cf is IDE itself
[08:37] <Rebecca> i know, but i have noticed when using them in the past that OSs often don't treat them exactly like a regular HDD
[08:37] <Rebecca> or at least they cause bugs
[08:41] <mycosys> did you check the cf itself is ok? they have a rather limited life
[08:42] <mycosys> also - while i am at it - suggest you use 10.04 for a mythserver rebecca
[08:42] <mycosys> 5 year support is worth it imo ;)
[08:43] <mycosys> my mythserver is 9.04 - i already need to upgrade as it was eol in october - 10.04 is LTS
[08:45] <mycosys> almost wish i had stayed with 8.04 tbh
[08:46] <mycosys> tho being fait i have another machien with the same chipset and video i can use to rebuild and move the hd across, most people dont have that luxury
[08:46] <mycosys> *fair
[08:54]  * mycosys idly ponders how many mythtv servers are sli capable
