twbshirgall: no, vga16fb is the one ubuntu *wants* me to load; they leave it in by default because they hate me09:07

koolhead11RoAkSoAx, i meant adding the modification bit if am running DHCP server on the same cobbler server apart from the 3ed error we get at time of sync. Also adding content inside the custom cobbler dhcp template file which over writes default dhcp config :)11:49

novitololoI've a file inside /etc/apache2/sites-available that has the following line: ServerName www.mytest.com.  DocumentRoot /path_to_index.php  -- I also have /etc/hosts defined a line with 127.0.0.1 www.mytest.com.  My question is: Why do I have to have that line in /etc/hosts, if I'm already declaring what's the servername for that VHost?12:06
shaunothe line in /etc/hosts isn't for the apache configuration.  it overrides the name resolution so when you stick www.mytest.com in your browser, it doesn't ask your isp's nameserver what the IP for mytest.com is.  it uses the one from /etc/hosts in preference12:08
shaunowithout it, apache knows that you want to answer requests for mytest.com, but nothing else on the machine does12:10
novitololothis explanation is awesome12:10

JanCCppIsWeird: nothing in openvpn logs?21:07
CppIsWeirdnothing that would indicate error. openvpn both in client and server thinks everything is okay. im suspicious of either something ran amock in windows networking or the server upgrade as it seemed to fail right around the upgrade.21:11
matt_keysI'm trying to move a web server over to ubuntu from centos. The previous admin used dbm=db:/path/to/rewrite.db in the rewrite configuration. I have enabled mod_rewrite, and moved the config over and enabled rewrite logging. When I rm the log and restart the server it gets created again, so I know it's reading the config but it doesn't appear to be pulling in the rewrites from those db files21:34
