I'm using JBoss 4.2.2.GA, so maybe it's not Ubuntu's fault? [09:28] Fix your routing table. [09:28] And you probably don't want to be running NetworkManager either. [09:29] KB1JWQ: you mean "google it"? ;) [09:29] There's no networkmanager here [09:30] maedox: Let me rephrase. [09:30] Are both of the IPs bound to eth3 and eth3:0 on the same network?

[11:07] I see on soem sites they mention "up to 10 users" when running Windows on it [11:08] :-) [11:08] thanks [11:08] they don't mention what services those 10 users are supposed to be using etc. [11:10] but that is Windows so you lose about 1/2 to 1/3 of the performance off the top [11:10] before you start adding additional services [11:11] I think the main point is how you are going to use it [11:12] they also list 1-10 users with Red Hat [11:25] Hi there, i have paths set like: mirror_lenny = http://cdn.debian.net/debian for something im using, how would i specify the path for the latest server version? === windkids is now known as windGone === Guest13774 is now known as AndrewMC [12:57] how to blank screen in ubuntu server?

[15:47] patdk-lap, I just need a way for students to log in and BAM theire share is connected to /home/Bill Gates/Documents [15:47] where Documents = \\fileserver\classof2011\bill_gates [15:48] I have used libpam-mount before, for mounting on user login, not with samba shares, but should be no different [15:48] patdk-lap, based on your experience, do you think libpam-mount would allow me to boot a computer, log in as 5 different users, and each user get THEIR own share on the server mounted? [15:49] as long as you don't mount them all in the SAME place [15:49] right [15:49] but how can I set it as a wildcard [15:49] let me gather my thoughts... [15:49] If I log in as steve_jobs, I want \\server\students\classof2011\steve_jobs to mount to /home/steve_jobs/Documents [15:50] but if he logs out and bill gates logs in, I want the SAME thing, but bill_gates instead of steve_jobs [15:50] I fail to see the issue [15:50] This needs to be based on user login. NOT rebooting and mounting at startup. [15:50] so you think it'll fly? [15:50] like I said, libpam-mount, NOT fstab [15:50] I just never heard of libpam-mount. ever. so I wanted to make sure :P [15:50] did you even bother to read what libpam-mount is? [15:50] Daviey: damn it looks rh specific again [15:50] I'm googling for it now. [15:52] patdk-lap, is libpam-mount just a package or an actual gui app?

[15:58] patdk-lap, is there a guide anywhere that you know of about setting this up? [15:59] http://pam-mount.sourceforge.net/doc.php [15:59] do i need a vlan to serve multiple subnets from one interface with DHCP on unbuntu? === jjohansen is now known as jj-afk [16:05] patdk-lap, no examples I take it? [16:05] there are examples all over those pages [16:06] if you mean, cut and paste for your specific issue, doubt it [16:08] what is the course on openldap (directory authentication?) [16:08] patdk-lap, yeah, I'm just a little panicked to get it running and sick as ever, so my focus level at the moment is not good. [16:09] patdk-lap, this sound right? [16:10] remove the user= part [16:10] whee...bug triaging storm coming soon to a mailbox to you [16:10] that means only user named user, will mount it [16:10] I thought smbfs was old and not used anymore? [16:11] cifs [16:11] cifs is the old one or the replacement? [16:13] wouldn't you want mountpoint="~/krueger" [16:13] What is krueger in this instance? Is this the name of the file server or the user? [16:13] * patdk-wk notes the, server="krueger" [16:14] so that's just the comp name of it [16:14] the mountpoint concerns me [16:14] /home/user/krueger [16:14] I need the "user" to be whoever the user is that's logged in [16:14] Can I wildcard it? [16:14] you could [16:14] but why not just use ~ [16:15] good thought [16:15] the ~ would apply to whatever user in at the time? [16:22] I'm also curious what path=public means [16:23] who is running the meeting today? [16:23] the share name [16:23] * patdk-wk votes ubottu runs it :) [16:23] well the share name is going to change I would think, since each user = share [16:24] path=%(USER) [16:24] thats a wildcard? [16:24] here's the part that confuses me [16:25] I work for a school, so we have 4 folders. //storage/students/classof2011 and 12 and 13 and 14 [16:25] and within each is the individual student shares [16:25] so I want a way to mount //storage/students/classof2011/steve_jobs to steve_jobs, since hes a senior, and //storage/students/classof2014/bill_gates to bill gates since he's a freshman [16:25] but... automagically. [16:25] Can libpam differentiate between the 4 folders? [16:26] the classof folders? [16:26] how could it? it only knows the user and password of the person attempting to login [16:27] could I at least mount //storage/students so when they open their home folder they see Class of 2011, Class of 2012, Class of 2013, and Class of 2014 there? [16:27] I dunno, but I guess you could attempt to mount it 4 times, once for each different path, and the one that works will stick? [16:28] pam has modules that can check for the existence of files [16:28] such as pam_listfile.so [16:28] where is that file located? [16:28] http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/Linux-PAM-html/sag-pam_listfile.html [16:28] not sure if that would help [16:28] pam can do a lot of things if you find the right module [16:28] or if you code it ;-) [16:29] http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/Linux-PAM-html/Linux-PAM_SAG.html [16:29] I've never set up pam before, so I'm kind of new to this. [16:29] I'm just *really* stuck and trying to find a quick solution. [16:29] sorry i'm just getting in the conversation, what are you trying to achieve exactly? [16:29] I work for a school district, and I just debuted a lab of LTSP Ubuntu thin clients. [16:29] right [16:29] The students are getting confused, heavily, by the fact their "Documents" folder doesn't have their stuff. [16:30] And this is because there are links on the desktop that smb:// to the class of folders [16:30] class of 2011, 12, 13, 14 [16:30] and they work out of there [16:30] so I'd like to put links to those shares within their documents folder. [16:30] without the need for authentication [16:30] how do you currently mount these folders? [16:30] so that way steve jobs, who's a freshman, can log in and bam - he has his stuff in his Documents home folder [16:30] I just have links on the desktop [16:30] they double click, type in their password, and it uathenticates [16:30] then they browse to their folder. [16:31] The confusing part is the fact that they see their home directory and think that's where their files are, when it's not. [16:31] So I'm trying to help them out by automating... everything... a little bit. [16:31] hmmm alright [16:31] let me try to get this straight [16:31] you mount the smb mountpoint in each homedir [16:31] but it contains all classes folders [16:32] currently it doesnt mount anywhere [16:32] so each users has class2011, class2012, etc. [16:32] it just kind of mounts when they log in [16:32] I'd LIKE it to go to their home folder [16:32] any preseed wizards around? [16:32] what would be AWESOME is to get their share to mount to /home/*USER*/Documents [16:32] kirkland, not a wizard, but ask anyway :-) [16:32] but I doubt I can pinpoint it that much [16:32] raphink: it's not me, it's aliguori [16:33] let him ask then :-) [16:33] hmm, seems he's in #ubuntu-cloud, not here [16:33] roasted, why not? that should be easy [16:33] the only issue is the class20xx part :) [16:34] patdk-lap, you think it'd be easy? [16:34] because I think it looks hard. :/ [16:35] i'm reading the 10.04 server guide under LDAP Authentication, under ACL, it says: Authentication requires access to the password field, that should be not accessible by default. Does this mean that I need to modify my configuration? Just underneath that sentence it gives me an example of ldapsearch; not modify, so I'm confused. [16:35] I'd go about mounting the dir when they log in [16:35] [16:35] using a login script [16:35] login script would do the same thing [16:35] right [16:35] the problem is the xx ;-) [16:35] but you could check if the userpath exists for each one first [16:35] but that *still* wouldn't help if user exists in multible ones [16:36] patdk-lap, my server name is storage, and the full path is //storage/students/classofxx/student_accounts [16:36] and you Loose the password then to auth with [16:36] with that said... [16:36] wouldn't it be... [16:36] [16:36] yep [16:37] I wonder if: [16:37] would be *good enough* [16:37] and if I just wanted to mount all 4 of the class folders in Documents, wouldn't I just use path="students" [16:37] Roasted__, how about making links on your filer? [16:37] My ubuntu server is on the domain. Would PAM look at those credentials and authenticate these users to these locations? [16:38] so that //storage/students/all/$USER points to //storage/students/classofxx/$USER for each $USER [16:38] that would solve your issue [16:38] if it's a samba server [16:38] dunno if that would work in win2008 [16:38] It's a windows server [16:38] :S [16:39] don't think it would? [16:40] where would I put this entry to test it? [16:41] in the pam-mount.conf file [16:42] no file found. where's it supposed to be located? [16:42] have you even installed libpam-mount yet? [16:42] yep [16:42] just searched filesystem for it [16:42] hi guys [16:43] is httpd and apache are two different softwares? [16:43] or if those two are same then is it that in old apache the path for httpd.conf was different and now in new apache2 its different? [16:43] help [16:43] what is the keyboard shortcut to get to the terminal window. I used to do "cntrl + alt + f1" but that' doesn't work with the newer version of ubuntu [16:44] kpettit, ctrl alt t [16:44] Abhijit, ah cool, didn't know that one. But what I ment is the terminal outside of the GUI. The console [16:44] Roasted__, /etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml [16:45] Sometimes my GUI locks up and I need to get to the console to kill things. But the command I used to use doesn't work anymore [16:45] patdk-lap, got it. Do I just tag this at the end? [16:46] no, it's xml [16:46] <Abhijit> is httpd and apache are two different softwares? [16:46] <Abhijit> or if those two are same then is it that in old apache the path for httpd.conf was different and now in new apache2 its different? [16:46] * patdk-wk wonders what the env looks like when a user logs in [16:46] where doe sthis entry need to go then? under volume definitions? [16:47] Abhijit, I know in Centos it's httpd and in Ubuntu it's apache. THey are the same app just different config setup [16:48] kpettit, oh i see. in college we have old version of red hat. and now here i have ubuntu. so the same paths are not working [16:48] :( [16:48] I've got a centos and ubuntu machine. Apache works the same way, they just name the directories different and chop up the config files and directories in different ways. [16:48] Apache is kind of a beast. People try to tame it differently [16:49] yerah [16:50] patdk-lap, I take it I AM to edit this file, right? [16:58] Abhijit, apache is an httpd [16:58] there are others [16:58] raphink, yeah [16:58] httpd means http server, and apache is one http server [16:58] lighttpd or nginx are other examples of httpd [16:59] usually, when httpd.conf refers to apache's configuration though [16:59] and in Debian and Ubuntu, this configuration is located in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf [17:02] raphink, yeah === jj-afk is now known as jjohansen [17:15] raphink, can you give me a hand with this pam thing still? [17:15] There's just some areas I'm unclear on. [17:16] which areas? [17:16] Well I have the section written out the way I think I need it [17:16] [17:17] the path doesn't take in consideration your class issue though [17:18] that's fine, if I can at least get the 4 Class folders in Home/DomainUserLoggedInAtTheTime/Documents I'd be good [17:18] I think [17:18] I mean it's worth a shot [17:18] if studenst go to documents and see Class of folders, they'll know where to go [17:18] Do I just add that in the pam_mount.conf.xml file? [17:19] I'm not familiar with pam_mount, but I think this is what you need to put [17:19] from patdk-wk's comments [17:21] this is what you need to put... as in you think what I have is right? [17:21] I think so, yes [17:21] did you try it? [17:22] hold on a second [17:22] am I to paste that line I pasted into the conf.xml file? [17:22] and ifs o, where? [17:22] I don't want to just be guessing and mess something up. [17:22] patdk-wk gave you the location of the file earlier, didn't he? [17:22] yes [17:22] but WHERE in the file [17:22] ah [17:23] screw it, I'll just try it [17:23] testing on my laptop so I dont fry my production lab I just set up :P [17:23] brb [17:26] New bug: #745073 in apache2 (main) "package apache2.2-common 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.4 failed to install/upgrade: el subproceso instalado el script post-installation devolvió el código de salida de error 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/745073 [17:27] yeah that uh [17:27] did nothing [17:27] :( === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [17:45] anybody familiar with configuring pam? [17:46] Roasted_, did you check with the documentation? [17:46] raphink, of course. [17:46] It's all I've been reading for the last hour. [17:46] And while it goes into grave detail about it, it's missing some key simple steps with setting it up. [17:46] Which is extremely frustrating... [17:47] :S [17:48] raphink, what was your idea about it? [17:48] about getting the login thing to work [17:48] I'm desperate for anything. I just need it to fly.. [17:48] well as far as classxx goes, my idea was to use a symlink on the filer, but it's a windows machine [17:49] ignore classxx [17:49] and then I didn't know about pam_mount so I'd have made a login script to mount the samba share [17:49] if I can get all 4 classes to show up within Documents, I'd be fine [17:49] how would the login script authenticate [17:49] but then it would ask for the password, so pam_mount is nicer [17:49] gah [17:49] stab me [17:49] this is so frustrating [17:49] ;-) [17:49] it already asks me 3 times for a password [17:49] it's obnoxious [17:50] so obnoxious I wouldn't be surprised if they'd pull this ubuntu lab out, which I DO NOT want [17:50] so I need to make this work [17:50] you mean pam_mount asks for a password? [17:50] no [17:50] my current setup does [17:50] many times [17:50] it's ridiculous [17:50] ok [17:50] pam_mount I don't even have working because I have no flipping idea how to set it up. All of the configs I see tell me what entries to use, but I have no idea how to structure them in the config file. [17:50] There's no examples that say, if you're trying to do this, then set it up like this, etc. [17:54] Roasted_, you read this right http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/man5/pam_mount.conf.5.html ? [17:56] Roasted_, did you try with /students instead of students ? [17:57] might help some: http://www.redhat.com/archives/k12osn/2006-October/msg00262.html === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [17:59] I did not use /students [18:00] raphink, yeah thats the one link I was reading [18:00] one of the many [18:02] patdk-lap, not really sure that link offers much help. It sounds like somebody asking hte same question I am with no answer. [18:03] the guy did say the dev was helpful [18:05] sigh [18:05] I'm just not reading anything here that I can use === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === DrD_away is now known as DrDetroit === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [18:50] hi all. I ssh into this server, and starting something like xterm works fine, but when I try to start firefox, I get 'X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.' - any idea what might be wrong? [18:52] RoyK: are you using ssh -X username@host? [18:53] as I said, xterm works [18:53] forwarding x11 is set in the config [18:53] simple X stuff works well [18:56] RoyK: weird...I just ran it from a 10.04 desktop to a 10.04 server no problems. There is a frame buffer that should be on the server apt-get install xvfb [18:57] no need for X on the server - I just want to start X apps from it [18:58] RoyK: all I do is ssh -X username@host then firefox works fine. [18:59] http://pastebin.com/W2vqiVh2 [18:59] xeyes/xterm/etc works [18:59] not firefox [18:59] server is 10.04.2 LTS AMD64 [19:00] Some Mac clients need -Y instead of -X in the ssh connect line [19:01] genii-around: tried that as well, no change, also, when it works for xterm, it should work for firefox, no? [19:05] RoyK: You would think so, yes. Maybe no Xauthority file? [19:06] RoyK: X11Forwarding yes You have this in /etc/ssh/sshd_config file? [19:06] genii-around: yes, it's there [19:06] thesheff17: seriously - I told you x11 forwarding works [19:06] RoyK: not sure why term would work and not firefox but I have no issue. [19:06] xeyes/xterm uses x11 tunneling [19:09] RoyK: Is there a local copy of it running already? ( firefox ) [19:09] nope [19:13] RoyK: Perhaps try calling firefox with the swith of --no-remote [19:13] no change [19:13] Hm. It's a puzzler. [19:13] that is - with --no-remote, it only gave me 'X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.' once [19:14] without it, the error message came twice [19:21] When I download and install dhcp3-server, does it by default turn itself on? [19:23] DrDetroit: you need to configure it first [19:23] DrDetroit: see /etc/dhcpd.conf (iirc) [19:24] thanks, just tying to think of all the things i need to do for making a replacement for my main box === a7ndrew_ is now known as a7ndrew [19:39] kirkland: hey! [19:39] mathiaz: yo [19:40] kirkland: how is the update-motd system working again? [19:40] mathiaz: it's compiled into pam_motd [19:40] kirkland: I'd like to add specific information to the motd on our ec2 instances [19:40] mathiaz: sure ... [19:41] mathiaz: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/en/man5/update-motd.5.html [19:41] kirkland: so that we can figure out in which environment we are (dev, staging or prod) [19:41] kirkland: great - thanks for the pointer [19:41] mathiaz: basically, you need to drop an executable in /etc/update-motd.d [19:41] mathiaz: name it NN-word [19:41] mathiaz: where NN is a number [19:41] mathiaz: it'll be executed by run-parts [19:42] mathiaz: see http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/en/man8/run-parts.8.html for ordering [19:42] kirkland: cool I'll look at it [19:49] I just noticed how big the server team got. I skip *one* UDS, and you guys basically double the team? I am positively shocked! [19:49] o/ mathiaz [19:50] EtienneG: o/ [20:09] mathiaz: sure thing; let me know if you have *any* trouble with it [20:26] New bug: #745195 in tomcat6 (main) "Tomcat6 updates depend on tomcat-user.xml" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/745195 [21:14] what's a quick way to tell how a mounted disk is formatted?

[21:35] zul: my pleasure, thanks for doing it :) [21:35] hallyn: my pleasure [21:35] now i'm really enjoying using my new lxc-clone and lxc-lvm-clone [21:35] i need to kick those to upstream nad see if they can integrate them [22:18] if i want to rehost youtube videos on my own httpd, what should i do? [22:20] azizLIGHTS: do you have the right to re-distribute said videos? [22:20] yes [22:21] azizLIGHTS: then you would just host the .flv file on your httpd [22:22] i dont want to download the flv from my httpd , i want to see it streaming in a aplayer on my httpd [22:22] hallyn: lxc-clone/lvm-clone? does that clone via lvm CoW snapshot? [22:22] so how can i do that [22:22] right [22:23] adam_g: right [22:23] SpamapS: so how can i do that [22:23] azizLIGHTS: put them in the DocumentRoot of the webserver [22:23] azizLIGHTS: I think by default that is /var/www [22:24] SpamapS: yes, but that makes my browser download the flv. i want to see it in a player with pause/play, buffer [22:24] skip seek [22:25] what is that thing called that does that [22:25] then you need to develop a web page that embeds the videos [22:25] somebody already made it i bet for free, what is it called>? im not sure of name so i cannot google it [22:25] or instead of using the flv, try using mpeg or even webm, and embeds them using HTML5 [22:25] oh [22:25] that depends on your users, too [22:26] thats nice for chrome i think [22:26] i am the user btw [22:26] since there's still quite a few people using old browsers that don't support HTML5 + webm [22:26] if you're the only user, then you can choose whatever technology fits you ;-) [22:26] so go for the easiest one, which is probably HTML5+webm [22:27] ok i like ur idea but i also want to try those flash players theyare nice [22:27] you know any i can use on my server [22:28] I've never done anything with a flash video player [22:28] you can search for one that is free, but I can't recommend you one [22:28] i dont know what to call this technology, on server side [22:28] flv player for server lol... what is it called [22:28] hallyn: oh. awesome to hear, similar functionality was on my libvirt/virt-manager wishlist for a long time [22:28] search for free flash video player [22:28] yea... i get vlc [22:28] like http://flowplayer.org/ [22:28] when i do that [22:29] then you don't use the same google as I do ;-) [22:29] VLC *can* be used as a streaming server if you want ☺ [22:29] in cli? [22:29] indeed it can JanC [22:29] adam_g: I'll put it in my ppa tonight or tomorrow, and fwd the patches to the list to see if we can get it upstream.
