[00:24] <flowbee> i believe port 6379 (for redis) is open on my server.  1) how do i scan that port to see if its open (i'm also on ubuntu now; server is too); 2) how do i close it? 3) is there a REALLY SIMPLE firewall that will block all ports except say port 80 and my ssh port?

[00:36] <lifesf> How to actually get access to a folder via ftp, samba or telepathy... so far the best i've managed is to see the linux server on windows network (using, writing, blah blah is impossible) and a root folder access via ftp; i'm completely confused,.. i've tried adding directory and user access but the guides i seem to follow aren't getting me anywhere.
[00:51] <Proz01d> i'm running openvpn and i  finally got a connection to the vpn working. I'm routing all my requests through the vpn however i can't reach any sites. I'm going to open up port 80 on the server but my question is : is this the best way to do this?
[00:55] <Shadow_aok> hi
[00:55] <Shadow_aok> is someone awake to help me solve my problem (and get some sleep at some point) ?
[00:58] <lifesf> i wish someone was,.. i've been at this for about 8hrs now and in here for about,.. 3 and still no answer
[00:58] <Shadow_aok> i got a problem with this error : "Unsupported conversion from utf-8 to ISO-8859-1: Invalid argument at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Encoding.pm line 52, <GEN23> line 30."
[00:58] <Shadow_aok> what's yours ?
[01:00] <lifesf> your converting an iso???? i don't know... mine shoudl be simple for anyone whom knows a bit i think... i just want access to my folder via ftp
[01:00] <Shadow_aok> well, just install proftpd
[01:01] <hallyn> lifesf: can you use scp instead?
[01:01] <lifesf> so far i've managed to see it but i don't know how to grasp permission rights
[01:01] <Shadow_aok> looks for a tutorial about proftpd and virtual users
[01:01] <lifesf> i am using proftpd
[01:01] <lifesf> i got the folder all setup up after seeing i don't know how many webpages on the net
[01:01] <Shadow_aok> your user needs to have the same virtual uid and gid than the owner of your files
[01:01] <Shadow_aok> you'll need mysql too
[01:02] <lifesf> and my last step is to get the rights to it.. even though i enter my name and password i have no write access
[01:02] <lifesf> i'm only using one user
[01:02] <lifesf> i have lamp installed
[01:08] <lifesf> anyways,.. my head's going to explode,.. betcha all i have to do is put some frickin name in one file and everything will work,.. i'm going for the advil bottle and sleep in very little time i think, i started search with what you have told me Shadow_aok, i'll keep those pages open.. thnx
[01:40] <lifesf> honestly,.. all i want to do is get permission rights to my ftp folder; there's no folder messing around nothing,.. i just need user access to var/www/ that's it... i don't care if i must login with root, ANYTHING as long as it works! please anyone!
[01:41] <twb> If this machine is connected to a network, you SHOULD care.
[01:41] <lifesf> i don't i'm using this thing to test
[01:41] <twb> Because if you allow YOUR machine to be compromised, it can be used to attack OUR machines, so you're potentially hurting others as well as yourself.
[01:41] <twb> Also http://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie
[01:42] <twb> If your idiot users require FTP (instead of, say, SFTP) to upload files, then it might be easiest to have a new directory (say, /srv/www) that you instruct apache to serve as /
[01:43] <lifesf> i'm alone on this machine, i'm trying to learn how to build websites and i'm trying to test various crap using the server but it's a complete pain to just transfer my files on it, everything else seems to work fine
[01:45] <lifesf> i don't need many users, just one
[01:46] <lifesf> i'm trying to get access with samba,.. same problem
[01:46] <lifesf> samba locks me in home directory
[01:46] <lifesf> proftpd won't let me delete, write ... nothing just view
[01:46] <lifesf> webmin allows me to transfer one file at a time
[01:48] <lifesf> worst part is i used to use this 4years ago to test my things and it all worked well except i'd get numerous attack attemps but trying this again i feel i've become completely dumb...
[01:52] <twb> lifesf: use SFTP
[01:55] <MartynB> life : try relearning everything for ipv6 :)
[01:57] <lifesf> sftp... with putty you mean?
[01:57] <lifesf> "like putty you mean**
[01:59] <twb> Or filezilla or winscp or whatever the hell you windows users use
[01:59] <lifesf> lol;... i go back and forth between windows and linux at times but i have yet much to learn twb :P
[02:02] <lifesf> omg thank you twb,.. didn't except a frickin ftp client like that would cut the crap
[02:02] <lifesf> thanks
[02:02] <lifesf> 8hrs of this for THAT! can't believe it but thanks
[02:03] <lifesf> actually,.. still says permission denied

[03:05] <Delerium_> Hi guys, I'm looking for a web hosting company for a new project.  I need the ability to: SSH / Install my own Software / At least 2gb ram / 50-10 gigs HD.  What company would you proposed?
[03:07] <toddnine> Delerium_: I really like rackspace cloud
[03:07] <toddnine> Super easy and will meet your requirements at a decent price
[03:08] <Delerium_> toddnine, Hey!  Thanks .. I was looking at a local company and they offer me a dedicated server for 79$ a month (CDN), but it's really overkill for me (8gb ram, 2x 350gigs, 5000GB transfert per month)... OVERKILL! :)
[03:08] <greppy> Delerium_: you are probably looking for a VPS provider, not a traditional webhost.
[03:09] <Delerium_> Yep Greppy, since I need to SSH into the box, and I will most likely have to install Zimbra
[03:09] <greppy> Delerium_: you can get ssh on a lot of traditional web hosting rigs, installing software, not so much :)
[03:09] <Delerium_> I was looking at iWeb.com since it's a local company (Montreal, Canada)
[03:10] <Delerium_> greppy: yeah... I was with aplus.net back then and they ask for my driver license to get the ssh shell.. go figure
[03:10] <greppy> that's... wierd.
[03:11] <Delerium_> greppy: Yup... and I never gave them... I'm running a server, not a car!
[03:12] <Delerium_> Is it me or that cloud computing is starting to make me sick?!
[03:13] <jmarsden> Delerium_: Just don't inhale when you are in in the cloud :)
[03:14] <Delerium_> ;)
[03:17] <Delerium_> toddnine, on rackspace, I see the the cost are based on hour... is that based on uptime or CPU/MEM used? I mean. If I have a 2gb deal and I only use 1gb, will I be bill for 2gb?
[03:18] <toddnine> Delerium_: Nah, you pay for your allocated capacity
[03:18] <toddnine> We use a combination of rackspace and EC2.  Rackspace for our www and operational severs (chef etc) and EC2 for our actual clusters
[03:18] <toddnine> EC2 is cheaper when you buy a reserved instance, but I find it's a lot of overhead managing EBS etc
[03:19] <Delerium_> toddnine, Looking at the chart on rackspace, for a 1024gb cloud server, which 730 hours of service, it costs almost the same as a dedicated server
[03:24] <benedikt> Can anyone give me the md5sum for /usr/sbin/sshd on Ubuntu 8.10 (OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-3ubuntu1) ?
[03:33] <toddnine> Delerium_: I know, but we don't use that kind of capacity :)
[03:33] <toddnine> We only use the 1024 mb ones
[03:33] <toddnine> And we don't have to wait 2 days for someone to get their ass in gear to set up our server :)
[03:34] <Delerium_> toddnine, yeah ... I might need a bit more ... (Tomcat + Zimbra + Mysql + ircd, apache, and blabla..) That's another thing I take in consideration, being a SysAdmin myself, I hate to go to our datacenter ;)
[03:34] <toddnine> haha
[03:35] <Delerium_> It's cold, noisy. can't drink a coffee, can't use my cell phone, no internet connection... beauty!
[03:38] <benedikt> I found it. Just in case, found the package on old-releases.ubuntu.com and extracted it.

[03:52] <NOSaturn> hello.... i'm wondering how i can remotely access my server's terminal?
[03:53] <rewt> the console?
[03:53] <NOSaturn> it's a cloud server and i can do it through this java applet VNC thing,
[03:53] <NOSaturn> yeyes...
[03:54] <rewt> well if it's a cloud server, they probably have it running in a vm, and you're seeing the console via the vm
[03:55] <NOSaturn> right
[03:57] <NOSaturn> you'll have to excuse me.... i've not touched ubuntu server before so i'm a noob
[03:58] <rewt> i'm guessing that's not ubuntu-specific; the vm interface would show the console of any os running in the vm
[03:59] <NOSaturn> yes. i can... but shouldn't i be able to open a windows on my computer and access the console there?
[04:00] <rewt> you'd have to check with the cloud provider on how to access it
[04:13] <NOSaturn> o gee.... i found i could connect with vnc viewer

[07:11] <koolhead11|afk> hi all
[07:53] <MartinN> hi, short question: i would like to export a nfsv3 mounted directory using nfsv4
[07:54] <MartinN> is it possible
[07:54] <MartinN> ?
[08:12] <twb> If it's within the nfsv4 root export, sure
[08:12] <twb> In fact, the kernel server's default implementation serves content as both by default IIRC
[08:22] <sporedi> to setup a ubuntu private cloud how many public ip i require
[08:23] <twb> 0
[08:24] <sporedi> ok
[08:24] <twb> You probably don't even need to use IP as your layer 2 protocol
[08:24] <sporedi> ok
[08:24] <sporedi> i am just trying to setup a private cloud @home
[08:25] <twb> sporedi: I'm not stopping you

[08:26] <twb> sporedi: I don't care
[08:27] <sporedi> sorry i am not getting u
[08:27] <twb> sporedi: never mind
[08:36] <sporedi> twb: to understand how cloud work i want to install it ,don't have any production work
[08:38] <sporedi> its asking  "Provide a list of "public" IP's for your instances"
[08:41] <twb> I wouldn't know about that
[09:04] <MartinN> twb: what i ment was the following scenario: host A exports nfsv3, host B mounts the export of host A and shall export it as nfsv4 (so host B shall act as an nfsv3-to-nfsv4 proxy)
[09:10] <twb> MartinN: you can't re-export NFS mounts using the kernel server
[09:11] <MartinN> are there any options?
[09:12] <twb> userspace NFS server, though that is shit

[14:06] <lool> hallyn: I was checking out seabios as it currently FTBFSes and was a bit puzzled by some packaging stuff
[14:07] <lool> hallyn: There's a seabios_0.6.1.2.orig.tar.gz tarball in the archive which apparently was rolled by you, contains the packaging and a .git with upstream history

[14:15] <hallyn> the .git wouldve been u an aacident
[14:15] <hallyn> i wasnt planning to upgfr
[14:15] <hallyn> upgrade until qemu-kvm updates

[14:16] <hallyn> if you wish i'll update

[15:27] <Ish10> SpamapS, what is the consequence of no more support?
[15:28] <SpamapS> Ish10: no security updates, no kernel enablement for hardware, no critical bug fixes
[15:28] <SpamapS> Ish10: of course, its open source, so you can support it yourself if you have to
[15:31] <hallyn> lool: so I assume you'd like to see 0.6.2 + commit 88db9fd632bf3f650244ec69e2f4fd6b2aa5fd3d
[15:32] <SpamapS> Ish10: also the supported upgrade path for 10.04 is directly to the next LTS (10.04 -> 12.04) .. whereas to get from 11.04 to 12.04, you'll have to go through 11.10)
[15:33] <Ish10> SpamapS, thank you, I don't knwo too much of the specifics if the updates are neccesary, but to be safe i'll go with 10.04 LTS

[16:29] <SpamapS> queso: its not necessary
[16:30] <SpamapS> queso: but the simplest thing would be to move the whole contents to the new location
[16:30] <SpamapS> queso: otherwise you need to recreate the root user and debian maintenance user.
[16:31] <queso> SpamapS: Given upgrades and such, will the package know the datadir is moved?  Not sure it cares..
[16:31] <SpamapS> queso: mysql_upgrade is used, and it reads my.cnf
[16:31] <SpamapS> queso: and anything that does break because you changed datadir is a bug in the package.

[16:35] <jmarsden> queso: In the past, moving the mysql databases used to confuse the apparmor stuff for it, I don't know whether it still does.
[16:36] <queso> jmarsden: k, thanks for the heads up
[16:36] <jmarsden> You're welcome.
[16:37] <SpamapS> jmarsden: good catch
[16:43] <queso> Any reason to put it in /srv/mysql/5.1/data or /srv/mysql/data or just /srv/mysql ?  What's a good practice for this?
[16:44] <jmarsden> I don't think it matters, by default it is /var/lib/mysql, so /srv/mysql should be fine.
[16:44] <queso> jmarsden: okay, I'll do that then
[16:56] <EvilMTeck> Would it be possible to install a DHCP server on a system and have it work on only one NIC and just pass all DNS requests to the DHCP server above it?
[16:56] <EvilMTeck> Not possible... easily possible...
[17:01] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: DNS != DHCP.  that's two different servers.  you can easily have the DHCP server hand out info pointing to DNS servers most anywhere else.
[17:02] <jpds> EvilMTeck: Have DNS1 forward requests to DNS2?
[17:03] <EvilMTeck> sorry, i spaced a little bit when I said that.....
[17:04] <queso> Why do I have /etc/apparmor config files if the apparmor package isn't installed?  And, shouldn't it be installed by default?  I'm on lucid-10.04.
[17:04] <jpds> queso: Some packages have their apparmor profiles within them.
[17:04] <queso> Oh, perhaps because I did a minimum server install
[17:05] <EvilMTeck> We have a fully configured network but it's having network issues. The network issues are most noticable between Client A and Server Y. I'd like to have A connect directly to Y without touching the rest of the network but A also needs to be able to talk to the rest of the network through Y if I do thiat.
[17:05] <queso> jpds: oh, ok
[17:06] <e-DIO-t> bye
[17:06] <EvilMTeck> e-DIO-t: hi?
[17:07] <EvilMTeck> jpds: does that make a little more sense?
[17:07] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: then i would set up Y as a pure forwarder to another working DNS server in your network.  then, have a DHCP entry for A that only has Y listed as a the DNS server for A.
[17:08] <e-DIO-t> EvilMTeck:  => having DHCP listening on one port, is possible,. But i can't reach why you should pass dns request to the dhcp
[17:08] <EvilMTeck> how would I setup the dhcp server to handle the connection on one nic?
[17:09] <ahs3> it's just an option in the DHCP config file
[17:10] <EvilMTeck> ahs3: I just got dhcp3-server installed.. I supposed that's somewhere :)
[17:11] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: /etc/dhcp3, usually.  the man page is pretty good
[17:12] <EvilMTeck> ahs3: I guess my number one problem is making sure it only operates on eth1 so it doesn't interfere with anything else
[17:12] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: yup.  easily done.
[17:14] <ahs3> same with BIND, btw.  something like 'listen { x.y.z.a; }', iirc
[17:15] <EvilMTeck> wow... dead simple
[17:15] <EvilMTeck> it's the only thing in /etc/default/dhcp3-server :P
[17:17] <ahs3> you could also get really paranoid and tell dhcp to only hand out an address to that specific MAC, if you need to
[17:18] <EvilMTeck> I don't like paranoia; it makes my stress needlessly high
[17:29] <EvilMTeck> ahs3: any chance you could help me with this? http://dpaste.com/544291/
[17:29] <EvilMTeck> er... gotaa run for a bit
[17:33] <queso> How do I calculate the netmask for a given subnet?
[17:39] <pangrazi> queso: do you want to learn or do you just have one?
[17:41] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: you need a subnet decl for every subnet, even if you're not passing out addresses on it.  i suspect you have more than one NIC in that machine, so you'll need a subnet decl for each
[17:49] <hallyn> lool: would you care to look the proposed package over, or should i just push it to oneiric?
[18:03] <mrmist> what do I need in the config to stop rsyslogd loging cron session open /close information to auth.log ?
[18:06] <EvilMTeck> ahs3: It's saying so subnet decl for eth1; but that config is supposed to be for eth1; how can I tell it that?
[18:09] <EvilMTeck> ahs3: ..... I forgot to configure eth1
[18:10] <ahs3> EvilMTeck: ah.  that would do it.  it can't match the decl to an existing interface.

[18:32] <Superchkn> qemu-kvm serial passthrough unreliable?: I've tried USB passthrough of a modem & Keyspan, serial passthrough, serial passthrough backed by Keyspan & serial, serial passthrough via telnet & raw. But I can't get my Window guest's fax software working on a libvirt/qemu-kvm Ubuntu 10.04LTS server host.

[19:37] <queso> How can a server's time be 2 minutes ahead of the ntp server it's syncing with, and how can I fix it?
[19:41] <RoyK> queso: check /var/log/messages (or was that syslog?)
[19:41] <RoyK> perhaps it's drifting too far
[19:42] <koolhead17> /var/log/syslog it would be i suppose
[19:43] <queso> RoyK, koolhead17: Nothing in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog .  Is there a way to tell it to resync and re-calculate the drift?
[19:43] <RoyK> queso: is ntpd running?
[19:43] <RoyK> queso: and what timesources do you have in /etc/ntp.conf?
[19:44] <queso> RoyK: it's running.  the ntp server is one of our own servers
[19:45] <RoyK> you can force it by running ntpdate <servername>
[19:45] <RoyK> but you'll need to shut down ntpd first
[19:46] <queso> RoyK: so shutdown ntpd, run ntpdate server, then start ntpd?
[19:46] <RoyK> yep

[20:16] <rcaskey> ok, I restored /etc/ssh/*rsa* to a server im bringing back up from backup and did an /etc/init.d/sshd restart but i'm still getting warnings from another box that the ssh host key has changed
[20:23] <shauno> rcaskey: have you tried restoring *dsa* too?  sshd_config references both
[20:23] <shauno> (or does on mine, 10.04 LTS)
[20:23] <rcaskey> yes, plus it explicilty says rsa
[20:42] <rcaskey> i checked the md5 sums and rebooted, and wala
[20:43] <rcaskey> when i manually clobbered the entire directory and rebootedi t made it work though, didnt see any sigs in the config files though
