[00:23] <joren> Hey, so I recently did an ubuntu server install which kept failing on "installing software"  I have a bootable system with apt and everything, but does anyone know if there's a package or virtual package that installes all the extra ubuntu goodies?
[00:24] <joren> it was failing on the "select and install software" step, so whatever software gets installed there, without any of the checkboxes checked
[00:32] <Delemas> Eventually I solved the issue by upgrading to Openssh 5.5p1.
[00:44] <Runeg> Ubuntu 10.04 (EC2). MySQL Server 5.1, Followed steps here: http://www.lornajane.net/posts/2008/Logrotate-Error-on-Ubuntu for this error: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log ' run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1. Still having this error occur on cron.daily runs.
[03:11] <BuenGenio> morning
[03:11] <BuenGenio> anyone know if there is a port of dovecot 2.0 to natty?
[05:37] <BuenGenio> would the dovecot 2.0 from Oneiric work on Natty?
[05:38] <twb> maybe
[05:38] <twb> Depends on the complexity of the package and its deps
[05:39] <twb> For example, backporting nvi would probably just work, whereas backporting gnome-panel would probably be a nightmare
[05:39] <twb> I don't know where dovecot falls on the scale
[06:15] <toddnine_> Hey guys.  I know that I can check if something is executed /var/log/syslog.  However I can't seem to find if the script I'm executing succeeds.  If it fails will it be in the syslog?
[07:18] <xampart> how do i edit crontab script so, that if it succeeds it doesn't send mail?
[07:25] <MrPPS> xampart: when you're editing the script, instead of piping/outputting it to mail, direct the output to /dev/null
[07:31] <twb> xampart: cron will not send email unless it emits output
[07:31] <twb> xampart: so fix your script to emit output only on error
[07:32] <xampart> twb: k. thanks
[07:34] <acidflash> hi all
[07:34] <acidflash> i am attempting to mv a folder to another location but its not working
[07:34] <acidflash> there is no -r switch now
[07:34] <acidflash> how does one go about doing it in 11.04 ubuntu server?
[07:38] <twb> mv doesn't have an -r
[07:38] <twb> What is the error message?
[07:38] <acidflash> i got it to work twb

[08:41] <BuenGenio> is there a CLI tool to configure network interfaces ?
[08:41] <greppy> BuenGenio: edit /etc/network/interfaces, man interfaces for documentation
[08:42] <BuenGenio> thanks
[08:42] <BuenGenio> another excuse to use vi then! ;)
[08:44] <twb> That's a funny way to spell TECO
[08:45] <BuenGenio> also, is there a way to bring up a Wireless interface on boot?
[08:46] <BuenGenio> with maybe a list of preferred networks to connect to
[08:47] <greppy> wpa_supplicant or maybe wicd-curses or wicd-cli
[08:56] <twb> You can do it with wpa_supplicant alone
[08:56] <twb> http://paste.debian.net/119415/
[08:58] <twb> BuenGenio: ^^
[08:59] <BuenGenio> greppy, found that the settings for ethX are actually stored in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
[09:02] <greppy> BuenGenio: if you are using network manager, yes.  I assumed that you weren't using X windows, since you asked for cli in a server channel :)
[09:56] <twb> BuenGenio: don't use NM
[10:01] <BuenGenio> use what?
[10:01] <greppy> BuenGenio: network manager
[10:43] <RoyK> http://xkcd.org/910/ <-- good one :)
[10:50] <BuenGenio> i meant what should I use instead
[10:50] <BuenGenio> sorry for the brevity
[10:50] <BuenGenio> (hear it's the sister of talent....)
[11:19] <greppy> BuenGenio: configure /etc/network/interfaces and then do an ifup eth0 or ifup eth1, etc
[11:19] <BuenGenio> ah
[11:19] <BuenGenio> lah
[12:56] <sommer> Morning all :-)
[13:10] <Daviey> morning sommer o/
[13:11] <Daviey> jdstrand: Would you believe it... Debian has had two uploads since hallyn's merge. :)
[13:12] <Daviey> Interesting patch.. New patch security-plug-regression-introduced-in-disk-probe-lo.patch
[13:55] <thisismygame> Does anyone know how to make an ubuntu minimal install boot to something other than a blank black screen?
[13:57] <jdstrand> Daviey: well, upstream did release 0.9.2-1 within the last week-- I knoew it would be coming. the good news is the qrt testing is back in shape as of yesterday, so hallyn or anyone should be able to use it
[13:57]  * jdstrand wonders why save/restore is in constant flux
[13:58] <Daviey> jdstrand, hallyn is mostly going to be afk for the next 2 weeks fyi.
[13:58] <jdstrand> Daviey: regarding the extra patch-- yeah, I plan on adding that with whatever fix I come up with
[13:58] <jdstrand> I think natty may need it too
[14:04] <Daviey> jdstrand, ok, super
[14:05] <zul> jdstrand: if you want to change libxen3-dev to libxen-dev in libvirt be my guest or i could do it
[14:06] <jdstrand> zul: my upload is unlikely to happen today. if you need it before early next week, feel free
[14:06] <zul> ok just one less item on my wi todo list ;)
[15:03] <Dynamit> W: Misslyckades med att hämta http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-updates/multiverse/source/Sources 404 Not Found [IP: 130.239.18.163 80] so i need to change the source file but to what
[15:04] <jpds> Dynamit: No, you need to move off an unsupported release.
[15:04] <Dynamit> but if i can't upgrade?
[15:04] <jpds> You should, regardless.
[15:04] <Dynamit> i want to upgrade but how
[15:05] <Dynamit> i never upgrade the server edition
[15:05] <Dynamit> the desktop is easy but i don't know how to do whit the server edition
[15:09] <Daviey> Dynamit: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Jaunty
[15:10] <Dynamit> thx man
[15:10] <Daviey> Dynamit: I would sugegst going to 10.04 :)
[15:11] <Daviey> Dynamit: So you need to go to 9.10 (Karmic) -> 10.04 (Lucid).. so a two stage upgrad
[15:11] <Daviey> +e
[15:11] <Dynamit> okey
[15:11] <Dynamit> man
[15:11] <Dynamit> what im out of date
[15:12] <Daviey> Dynamit: Non-LTS (Long term support) releases are only support for 18 Months from release.  LTS releases are supported for 5 years on the server
[15:12] <Daviey> Dynamit: 10.04 is supported until 2015. :)
[15:16] <Dynamit> An upgrade from 'jaunty' to 'lucid' is not supported with this tool. wtf i follow the source in the url
[15:17] <Dynamit> i have Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty
[15:22] <genii-around> Dynamit: If your current version is not a Long Term Support release, like 8.04 Hardy, you can only upgrade to next version directly above... so in your situation, 9.10 Karmic Koala
[15:23] <Dynamit> how will i do?
[15:23] <Dynamit> is there any way to upgrade to LTS when i uprade?
[15:24] <genii-around> Dynamit: After you go 9.04 to 9.10, you can use same method to go 9.10 to 10.04 ( which is an LTS release)
[15:24] <queso> If I add a ppa that has a package I need, but also includes packages that I don't need, and some of those packages that I don't need have the same name as an ubuntu-supported package that I need, how do I get the ubuntu-supported package?   aptitude keeps telling me that the package is from an untrusted source, so it's obviously defaulting to the ppa source.
[15:25] <Dynamit> how to go from the 9.04 to 9.10 i know that's noob ? but i have forgot the moste
[15:27] <genii-around> Dynamit: First make sure you have 9.04 the most current it can be with: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade        then: sudo do-release-upgrade
[15:28] <Dynamit> An upgrade from 'jaunty' to 'lucid' is not supported with this tool.
[15:28] <Dynamit> it was i get as answer
[15:28] <genii-around> Dynamit: You may need to change the repositories to be also like: old-releases.ubuntu  at the front as well
[15:28] <Dynamit> it is

[15:58] <slyboots> Hi
[15:59] <slyboots> Ran into a problem haha, Power-cut brought down my home-server.  But at reboot it no-longer comes back on-line.  Ran recovery mode and its complaining that it cant mount /
[15:59] <slyboots> So, ran mount and the problem seems to be that the drive that / is on appears to. chagne drive-ID from either /dev/sda to /dev/sdc
[16:00] <slyboots> But I cant fix it as its complaining that / is mounted read-only.  But I cant seem to use mount -o rw since it thinkgs / is /dev/sdc5 instead of /dev/sda5
[16:00] <slyboots> If that makes sense
[16:02] <slyboots> But in /etc/fstab its using the UUID of the correct disk
[16:11] <momelod> greetings channel.  I have two VMs sharing an iSCSI disk.  Im trying to setup fencing with Stonith.  All the documentation i can find online seems redhat specific and always tells me to configure SBD via /etc/sysconfig/sbd
[16:11] <momelod> greetings channel.  I have two VMs sharing an iSCSI disk.  Im trying to setup fencing with Stonith.  All the documentation i can find online seems redhat specific and always tells me to configure SBD via /etc/sysconfig/sbd
[16:11] <momelod> but on a ubuntu system, that file and folder doesnt exist
[16:12] <momelod> where is the sbd configuration found in Ubuntu?
[16:15] <momelod> the specific config i am referring to is: http://linux-ha.org/wiki/SBD_Fencing#Start_the_sbd_daemon
[16:26] <queso> What is the /etc/passwd- file (and other filename- files) in /etc ?  Are those backups from before changes?
[16:29] <e_t_> No. /etc/passwd keeps a record of user accounts on the system and various information about them. /etc/shadow actually stores the encrypted passwords.
[16:31] <patdk-wk> s/encrypted/hashed/
[16:36] <slyboots> Okay, I've no idea why this server isnt booting
[17:25] <raubvogel> Is there a package for samba4 that includes all the parts to set it up as a DC?
[17:41] <rawfodog> I'm gonna go full noob here, I just installed 11 server, and I can't connect to it's ip address via ftp. Do I need to download something ? During the install I checked off the LAMP packages.

[18:24] <jevidl> I am working on a project to setup centrally managed public SSH keys. I had hoped to declare multiple files in the AuthorizedKeysFile statement, but this does not appear possible on most linux implementations, and may only be available on OpenBSD. Does anyone know how to use multiple AuthorizedKeysFile's in Ubuntu, or is this simply not possible?
[18:29] <SpamapS> jevidl: is that maybe a new feature that hasn't found its way to the version you're using?
[18:30] <jevidl> SpamapS: it's quite possible. I didn't see it on *anything* other than openbsd, so that's the most likely answer. it'd just help me out quite a bit, so I figured I'd ask about it just in case someone had found a way, or knew of another way.
[18:31] <jevidl> Unfortunately google hasn't been a lot of help. I'm well aware that I can have multiple public keys in my .ssh/authorized_keys file, thank you very much.  :)
[18:31] <SpamapS> jevidl: you might look into the new project 'dotdee' that kirkland has been working on .. its good for squishing files together when a program doesn't have a '.d' capability. :)
[18:31] <jevidl> It's not the end of the world if I have to change it, it's just one more thing to change on a number of systems.
[18:32] <jevidl> SpamapS: thanks. I'll take a look at that!
[18:32] <SpamapS> jevidl: also in Ubuntu we have ssh-import-id (ssh-import-lp-id in old releases I think) that pulls one's launchpad keys into .ssh/authorized_keys .. it would be *awesome* if your service was added to that.
[18:33] <jevidl> I'll probably try to do some kind of write up on it, though i am not sure if it will fit in with the way I envision doing it.
[18:34] <jevidl> At the moment I'm looking at using an read only NFS share pushed out to each system that contains public keys for each person. Since it's the *public* key I'm not too worried about the insecurity of it, and it'd let us manage public keys in just one location. Additionally, we could probably write something that triggers when a blacklisted key is used, etc.
[18:34] <jevidl> If I decide that I really want to try to secure it more, I'll probably just look at setting up ipsec between the boxes.
[18:35] <jevidl> So I don't think that'd probably be too helpful with the launchpad stuff. It's meant more for a local environment than for a widely distributed set of users over the internet
[18:36] <TheInfinity> hi everyone ... since a (longer) while i have some problems with samba transfer speed using a lucid server + samba. its as slow as 2 minutes for 15 MB. the previous system (debian lenny) did not have this prob. same smb.conf. any hints what to do?
[18:37] <jevidl> TheInfinity: Let me dig up the link...
[18:37] <SpamapS> jevidl: NFS for security tokens? Are you sure you want to do that?
[18:37] <SpamapS> jevidl: thats.. not exactly "safe" ;)
[18:38] <TheInfinity> my smb.conf: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/404146/
[18:38] <SpamapS> Think about the case where a mitm just puts their own keys in and then can login as anybody.
[18:38] <jevidl> SpamapS: :) well, all it is going to be putting out there is the public key portion of SSH. Unless I have a gross misunderstanding of how that key is used, I think it should be ok since it is by nature the portion that is shared out and is dependent on the private key on someone's local system
[18:38] <jevidl> SpamapS: and that's what brought me to the thought of using IPSec as well
[18:38] <SpamapS> jevidl: why not just use a proven technology like kerberos?
[18:39] <TheInfinity> I dont have a ralink network chipset (i found this bug @ ubuntu forums) - its an Atheros Communications Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 PCI-E Ethernet Controller (rev b0)
[18:39] <jevidl> SpamapS: We do that currently. I was trying to find a way to make it more convenient, and still safe. It's not a perfect idea yet, but I'm trying to find ways to make it better.
[18:40] <jevidl> TheInfinity: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-HOWTO/speed.html#id2690596
[18:40] <jevidl> TheInfinity The Socket Options section might have some useful tuning parameters for you
[18:41] <TheInfinity> jevidl: but its the same smb.conf as used in debian lenny?
[18:41] <TheInfinity> jevidl: and i already use several recommendet socket options
[18:42] <jevidl> TheInfinity: as far as I know the options listed there should work fine. If those tuning things don't help, how does performance look for other TCP based protocols like FTP or even SCP?
[18:43] <TheInfinity> jevidl: i'll have a look ... (installing winscp - just windows clients ... its a network 400 km away :) )
[18:43] <jevidl> SpamapS: I had considered the possibility of mitm using NFS. Off hand, do you see any other major problems?
[18:44] <jevidl> TheInfinity: sure :) The idea is to try to narrow down the problem to either just SAMBA, or to the systems network connection in general
[18:44] <TheInfinity> jevidl: yea, the idea is great. :)
[18:44] <SpamapS> jevidl: kerberos has always made things *more* convenient when I've used it....
[18:45] <jevidl> TheInfinity: There's a bit of overhead on SCP since you have encryption/decryption operations happening in addition to just pushing bits around, but if there's a big difference between SMB and SCP then there's a good chance it's a smb setting that's slowing things down.
[18:46] <jevidl> SpamapS: So, in my situation we use a centrally managed KRB service. I am not sure I can get ticket sharing working, which if I am not mistaken would allow SSO on systems. Is that where you're going with KRB? I know it's possible, but currently we have to sign in to each system individually.
[18:47] <SpamapS> jevidl: thats basically the only reason to use kerberos, yes, SSO
[18:48] <TheInfinity> jevidl: doh. 200 KiB/s
[18:48] <jevidl> SpamapS: k. I will do some reading on that too. It may be an easier solution than what I'm looking at. I will say that our current setup, even without SSO, is easier than forcing each user to manage their password on every machine. :)
[18:48] <TheInfinity> jevidl: uh. okay. that seems to be a driver problem.
[18:48] <jevidl> TheInfinity: is that about what you were getting on SMB?
[18:48] <TheInfinity> jevidl: yea
[18:49] <TheInfinity> thats bad. because i dont have local access atm. -.-
[18:49] <jevidl> TheInfinity: ok, Yeah, it sounds like it's possibly a driver issue, it could be a kernel tuning issue (though this would suprrise me) or it could be an issue residing in your connection between you and the remote site
[18:49] <SpamapS> jevidl: are you sure it doesn't already work? try 'kinit' on your local machine, then ssh -v remote_machine and see if it uses the kerberos credentials
[18:50] <TheInfinity> jevidl: its a local network. i access there via ssh. all copies are made just inside the local network.
[18:50] <jevidl> SpamapS: I didn't think it did, though I'll try that :)
[18:51] <jevidl> TheInfinity: gotcha. Yeah, it might be a driver problem. Is the slowness limited to this machine, or do other machines with a similar configuration also have problems? if it's limited to this machine, it might be a bad cable or switch port, something like that
[18:51] <TheInfinity> jevidl: and i use -server default kernel
[18:52] <TheInfinity> jevidl: its the only server there. but i can try coping from one windows maschine to another, yea.
[18:52] <jevidl> TheInfinity: just something easy to check, and might save you some time
[18:53] <jevidl> SpamapS: I'll look at this more. There's a GSS failure when I try to connect, so it might be something that can be remedied.
[18:54] <TheInfinity> jevidl: huh! downloads just work with 200 KiB/s although its a 6000 mbit line Oo
[18:55] <jevidl> a 6Gbit line?
[18:56] <TheInfinity> urgh
[18:56] <TheInfinity> 6 mbit. sorry :)
[18:56] <SpamapS> jevidl: probably need service principals on the servers.
[18:56] <TheInfinity> 6000 kbit
[18:57] <TheInfinity> router says its online @ 6 mbit, 5,5 mbit usable
[18:57] <jevidl> SpamapS: i'll keep that in mind. It's also quite possible that our config is out of date or misconfigured to allow that on the client side. I'll look at that side of things first, since it'll be easier work than trying to deal with the centralized IT to find out about the servers. Thanks for the suggestion though, this may save me some time.
[18:57] <SpamapS> jevidl: http://www.allgoodbits.org/articles/view/24
[18:57] <TheInfinity> replacing the switch could be an interesting test ...
[18:57] <SpamapS> jevidl: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/kerberos.html might be even better. :)
[18:58] <jevidl> SpamapS: Thanks! I'll be sure to check out both those articles
[18:58] <TheInfinity> jevidl: thanks for your support :)
[18:59] <jevidl> TheInfinity: No problem at all. remember that 6Mbit is about 768 KBytes
[18:59] <TheInfinity> jevidl: yea, but 200 is exacly the value which is transferred by samba / scp.
[18:59] <jevidl> TheInfinity: if you're going over the internet, you might not actually reach that
[18:59] <TheInfinity> jevidl: i tried ubuntu iso download :)
[18:59] <jevidl> TheInfinity: yeah, it may be something in the middle throttling it down then :)
[19:00] <TheInfinity> jevidl: to get sure i'll try to transfer something between 2 windows boxes
[19:00] <TheInfinity> jevidl: but thats no ubuntu problem at all :)

[20:18]  * slyboots needs a better understanding of the ubuntu boot process
[20:19] <slyboots> My server fails to reboot correctly, but its not giving me anything helpful as to why
[20:19] <slyboots> If I boot into recovery mode, it fails with "Unable to mount /" but as far as I can tell it works fine if I drop into recovery and enter teh command mount /dev/sda1 /
[20:23] <jevidl> slyboots: the first thing (and probably weak theory) that comes to mind is that fstab may have an error in it?
[20:23] <jevidl> slyboots: perhaps a messed up UUID for /dev/sda1?
[20:23] <jevidl>  </shot in the dark>
[20:27] <slyboots> jevidl: Nah I already checked that, its refercing the correct UUID for the disks
[20:27] <jevidl> slyboots: sorry. It was worth a try.
[20:28] <jevidl> slyboots: the only other thing I can think of is perhaps a module that's not being loaded during a normal boot, but that seems a bit far fetched.
[20:28] <slyboots> aye, Since recovery mode works OK and its the samel kernel
[20:30] <jevidl> slyboots: recovery fails until you manually mount it though, right? I wonder why that is
[20:30] <slyboots> Not sure, according to mtab its mounting a disk that.. doesnt exist
[20:30] <slyboots> "/dev/sdc5 mounted as / ext2"
[20:31] <slyboots> But I dont have /dev/sdc5 :P
[20:34] <jevidl> slyboots: and no reference to sdc5 in fstab? I wonder where it's getting the idea that it should be using that
[20:35] <slyboots> Not a clue, /dev/sdc is part of a RAID array so there is no 5th partition on it
[20:35] <slyboots> Both boot and / and mounted by their UUID's and the rest are part of a LVM
[20:40] <jevidl> so /dev/sda is your boot hdd, and sdb,sdc in an LVM configuration?
[20:44] <slyboots> Well b,c,d,e,f,g..
[20:44] <slyboots> But yes, all the critical OS fiels are stored on /dev/sda
[20:45] <jevidl> sure
[20:48] <jevidl> Grub is installed on sda?
[20:49] <slyboots> Yup
[20:49] <Runeg> Has anyone experienced the log rotation error with MySQL on 10.04?
[20:52] <jevidl> slyboots: I'm sorry, I don't have a lot of other ideas. It sounds like the drivers for your hdd controller are loading fine, and it can already use the disk by the time it's booting. As long as UUID is right, and fstab is correct, it certainly seems like it should be able to boot. More longshots might include making sure that your disk partitions labels are correct. I'd almost be tempted to suggest udev/hal, but these aren't even loaded at the point 
[20:52] <jevidl> failing
[20:52] <slyboots> mmm..
[20:52] <slyboots> bugger
[20:52] <jevidl> slyboots: sorry, I wish I had more ideas for you, but you've checked most of what I'd know to check.
[20:53] <slyboots> Ok :) thanks anyway though
[20:53] <jevidl> you might try asking about it in here later, there's plenty of people that are way better at this than I :)
[20:53] <slyboots> heh, okay
[20:55] <jevidl> btw, Runeg , saw your question but have not run into that
[20:55] <jevidl> I probably should go check some SQL servers though...
[21:02] <jevidl> slyboots: gotta run, good luck sorting it out
[21:28] <RoAkSoAx> zul: ping?
[21:44] <soren> smb: Did zul answer your question?
[21:45] <soren> smb: If not, forget all about xen-3.3. 4.1 is where it's at these days.
[21:46] <soren> smb: As for the only having an -amd64 flavour: That's because you're on 64-bit, so you have no use for the -i386 one, so it doesn't get built for amd64.
[21:47] <soren> smb: The -amd64 one gets built on i386 as well, because that will let you run 64 bit domU even though your dom0 (which is where you'll install the hypervisor package) is i386.
[21:47] <soren> smb: ...provided that you're actually on amd64 iron.
[22:28] <raubvogel> How do you start/stop the heimdal kerberos server?
[22:29] <raubvogel> I was looking for, say, stuff like heimdal-kdc but can't find it in 10.10
