[04:20] <philipballew> would somebody be able to help me with getting my server to be viewed on the network
[04:22] <jmarsden> viewed?  As in pingable and sshable?  Maybe... what is the problem?
[04:22] <JoeCoder> is it possible to create a symbolic link that also recursively changes the ownership of the files in it?  (probably not, but thought I'd ask)
[04:22] <philipballew> not problem. im just setting it up
[04:23] <philipballew> im gonna put music on it and hook several laptops to different speakers in the house to make a mediaa server
[04:23] <philipballew> so i assume samba is needed
[04:23] <philipballew> and ill install ssh as well. i never run a server with out it
[04:23] <JoeCoder> is it possible to create a symbolic link that also recursively changes the ownership of the files in it?  (probably not, but thought I'd ask)
[04:24] <philipballew> jmarsden,
[04:24] <JoeCoder> sorry, didn't mean to ask the same question twice.
[04:26] <jmarsden> philipballew: "Viewable" by Windows machines for music etc. I might not be able to help much with, but the basic networking and ssh should be simple enough.
[04:27] <philipballew> ill be using linux only
[04:27] <philipballew> jmarsden,
[04:27] <philipballew> I am not a windows person since i switched cold turky to ubuntu
[04:28] <jmarsden> philipballew: Then why do you think you want to use samba?  I suppose it depends on what the media client apps you will run on the laptops use...
[04:28] <jmarsden> First step: install the server and openssh, and get that working on the network.
[04:29] <philipballew> im noy sure. i dont need it. whats the best way to connect to unix or linux bassed computers together?
[04:29] <jmarsden> Well, it depends what sort of connection.  ssh is one way :)
[04:29] <philipballew> when i install ssh i have a dynamic ip
[04:30] <jmarsden> whether your local IP is static or not depends on how you configure networking, not on ssh.
[04:31] <philipballew> i have it configured for static
[04:31] <philipballew> so i might install something like this http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/
[04:31] <philipballew> then install the cliant on ubuntu
[04:32] <jmarsden> If the server and clients are all on the same local LAN you don't need dyndns :)
[04:32] <jmarsden> Right now is the server machine installed and on your LAN?
[04:34] <philipballew> its about to be when i install it. id need dyndns so i can administer it remotely though correct?
[04:35] <jmarsden> It helps if you want to do that, yes.
[04:36] <jmarsden> However "I have it configured for static" and "its about to be when I install it"   do not go together very well, or else I am confused!?
[04:44] <philipballew> isnt a static ip assigned by your isp jmarsden ?
[04:45] <jmarsden> On your local LAN, a static IP is assigned by you.  On the public Internet, it is assigned by the ISP.
[04:45] <jmarsden> You were originally talking about a network and laptops playing music from a server... seemed to me that was all local on one LAN...
[04:45] <jmarsden> So no ISP needed at all, no Internet connection needed even :)
[04:46] <philipballew> it is all local. but say i want to administer it remotely.
[04:46] <philipballew> haha. that makes sence
[04:46] <jmarsden> Then you can use some form of dynamic DNS client if you want, yes.  But the server needs a (local, LAN) static IP whether or not you need the remote admin.
[04:47] <jmarsden> So the laptop clients can easily find the server.
[04:47] <philipballew> whats the way to do that?
[04:47] <philipballew> assign a local static ip
[04:48] <jmarsden> https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html and see the bit under "Static Address Assignment".
[04:48] <jmarsden> You really do need to read the Server Guide before installing a Ubuntu server... :)
[04:49] <philipballew> this is gonna be a fun night!!!
[04:50] <jmarsden> It's 5 lines of text in /etc/network/interfaces, it is not hard to do :)
[04:51] <jmarsden> Make that 4 lines...
[04:51] <jmarsden> The 5th is for your default route to the Internet :)
[04:53] <philipballew> yeah i looked at that. i have a router(running dd-wrt) and a att modem
[04:53] <philipballew> shouldnt be horribably hard

[09:16] <dijonyummy123> i have a problem with postfix. i send an email, can see the emails in the Maildir/new. but when i do a "mail" always says i have no mail. any idea?
[09:18] <sarit> which protocol is used by mail: SMTP or IMAP?
[09:18] <sarit> euhr... I mean POP3 or IMAP
[09:20] <dijonyummy123> smtp i guess... 220 mail.androidcoolness.com ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu)
[09:20] <dijonyummy123> ehlo localhost
[09:20] <dijonyummy123> ,   esmtp
[09:20] <dijonyummy123> i followed the ubuntu docs for postfix
[09:21] <sarit> smtp is used to send the email, since you have files in the Maildir/new folder, I assume it has been received
[09:21] <sarit> if you "speak" POP3 or IMAP, you can connect to your mailserver using telnet and verify you have new messages
[09:44] <dijonyummy123> how come 'mail' command cant find the new mail
[09:45] <sarit> dunno, no experience with mail myself
[10:22] <RoyK> dijonyummy123: by default, the mail command looks for new mail in $MAIL, usually /var/mail/$username
[10:23] <RoyK> if you have installed something more fancy than good old mbox, such as dovecot or cyrus IMAP, good-ole 'mail' is either too stupid or needs to be reconfigured

[16:12] <nucking> Hey everyone, I'm planning to upgrade my current server to a new ubuntu server version, is this a good time to do so? Or should I wait a little longer because there's a new major version just around the corner?
[16:35] <remix_tj> nucking: depends on the release you want to install. If you need a LTS is a good time, the next one will be release in about 1yr. But if you are talking of common ubuntu release the next one will be in october, so you must decide
[16:36] <nucking> remix_tj: What's a LTS?
[16:37] <nucking> My only goal with this server is to use it as my nas/router
[16:37] <remix_tj> Long Term Support, a special ubuntu relase which gets updated for 5years instead of the traditional 18month
[16:37] <remix_tj> ah... depends on how many times you'd like to upgrade it
[16:37] <nucking> I'm currently running Ubuntu server 9.10 on it
[16:38] <remix_tj> ah
[16:38] <remix_tj> i'll upgrade to 10.04 and wait for the 12.04 for the next upgrade. IMHO LTS releases are more stable and reliable
[16:39] <nucking> Well, I recently installed a new wireless network adapter and It's been bugging around a little with lots of silly things installed I don't want/need anymore, so I thought I might as well install a new version

[22:05] <NictraSavios> Alright, Well, Ive been using desktop linux for a while now, Running Arch Linux. But Now comes the big job. I have a network of 75 machines. All are using a windows server. I need instructions, or a bassic idea, on how I should go about making it a ubuntu server. Its 75 machines, Clustered to all feed off one monitor (Which constantly outputs the collective activity of the server).
[22:10] <NictraSavios> Hello?
[23:27] <qman__> anybody here familiar with zoneminder? I have an old install on 9.10 that I can't get video exported from, giving me "No event id(s) supplied, referer: https://66.188.27.110:8443/zm/index.php?view=export&eids[]=231119&eids[]=231122&eids[]=231125&eids[]=..."
[23:27] <qman__> I'm guessing it's a problem with the requesting page because of that ridiculous get URL, but I don't know if that's how it's supposed to work
[23:28] <qman__> I know 9.10 is EOL, so I'm just trying to fix it well enough to get the video out
