| ntoombs19 | Hello everyone! I reciently installed ubuntu on an HP Mediasmart Home Server. I was having a problem with my network adapter (eth0) not being recognized so I researched it online and found that I simply need to update the driver for the adapter. My problem is that I don't know how to download and install the driver. I was hoping someone here could give me some magical command that would do this for me :) | 01:21 |

| ntoombs19 | I'm having trouble getting my server to work with a static ip address | 01:34 |
| ntoombs19 | if its dhcp, my router recognises it | 01:34 |
| ntoombs19 | if it's static, it can't see anything | 01:34 |
| moosoft | hey guys, I am trying ot install ubuntu server on some pretty old hardware. PIII, 512K RAM, SCSI hard disk and cd-rom. It boots up fine but when it comes time to start installing it says it can't mount the cd | 02:02 |
| moosoft | anything I can do to get it to see it? | 02:03 |
| moosoft | ot/to | 02:04 |
| qman__ | most likely a problem with the SCSI drivers | 02:11 |
| qman__ | also, I assume you meant 512MB RAM | 02:12 |
| qman__ | because no system has had 512k since about the 286 era | 02:12 |
| moosoft | heh yes I did mean that | 02:12 |
| qman__ | fine specs for most purposes | 02:12 |
| qman__ | but yeah, SCSI drivers are going to be your biggest issue | 02:13 |
| moosoft | is there a net install option? | 02:13 |
| qman__ | if you can hook up IDE, that'd be the best bet | 02:13 |
| qman__ | you can install over the network but you have to get a live environment first, or a PXE server running | 02:13 |
| qman__ | I highly doubt it can boot USB | 02:14 |
| qman__ | otherwise that would be an option | 02:14 |
| moosoft | doesn't even have usb ports I don't think | 02:14 |
| qman__ | well, the P3 spans that era | 02:15 |
| qman__ | some earlier, cheaper ones didn't have USB at all | 02:15 |
| qman__ | some later ones had full USB boot | 02:15 |
| qman__ | I've got a dual P3 compaq server with a SCSI array, but it has IDE CD | 02:18 |
| qman__ | no special hoops to get it installed | 02:18 |
| qman__ | it was made after the HP/compaq merger, but while they were still building machines under both names | 02:20 |
| moosoft | ok, it does have a usb port. I missed it due to some strategic dust. I'll try booting from usb stick | 02:31 |
| moosoft | ok, booting from usb is a no go | 02:46 |
| moosoft | I have found a way to boot the USB drive. | 03:02 |
| moosoft | I am using the boot manager burned to a cd from Plop (http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager.html) which allows me to select USB as the boot device! | 03:03 |
| moosoft | maybe that can help someone else someday :) have a good weekend | 03:05 |
| ksx4system | how do I set up simple and actually working NAT with iptables? without firewall, no filtering (passing all trafic) | 03:13 |
| ksx4system | i wasted nearly 6 hours to make this work, without results | 03:13 |
| pmatulis | /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE | 04:16 |
| pmatulis | /sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT | 04:16 |
| pmatulis | /sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT | 04:16 |
| pmatulis | . | 04:16 |
| pmatulis | where eth0 is internet facing and eth1 is internal | 04:16 |
| pmatulis | ksx4system: ⤴ | 04:17 |
| pmatulis | ksx4system: also, turn on routing: 'sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1'; then edit /etc/sysctl.conf to make it permanent | 04:21 |
| etcetera_ | sorry to but you guys again, but I've had zero luck googling for a resource that describes how to install the latest mono build... | 04:25 |
| etcetera_ | how would I go about getting mono-2.10.2 an mod_mono 2.10?? | 04:25 |
| pmatulis | etcetera_: bake your own package. even 11.10 only currently has 2.10.1 | 04:27 |
| etcetera_ | yikes. it's been 3 years since I booted into linux and I need to bake my own package :-( | 04:28 |
| qman__ | it's called bleeding edge for a reason ;) | 04:29 |
| qman__ | fortunately that's generally pretty easy, just get the source package for the most recent packaged version, copy out the debian directory, and make the new one with it | 04:30 |
| qman__ | a lot easier than dependency hunting | 04:31 |
| etcetera_ | hmm, https://github.com/nathanb/iws-snippets/blob/master/mono-install-scripts/ubuntu/install_mono-2.10.sh | 04:31 |
| etcetera_ | trying to run this, but getting " : invalid option" | 04:32 |
| qman__ | they tried to make it easy, but they don't even build a package | 04:32 |
| qman__ | they just make install at the end | 04:32 |
| qman__ | that's going to be a mess next time you need to update | 04:32 |
| etcetera_ | yea...but that's not "they" that's one guys github repo. | 04:33 |
| etcetera_ | and no way anyone would expect me to build a package at this stage. | 04:33 |
| qman__ | well, it's leading you down the right path, I'd just install the packages it installs | 04:34 |
| qman__ | get the sources it gets | 04:34 |
| qman__ | then checkinstall to build a package, instead of make install | 04:34 |
| qman__ | it's not exactly a proper packaging, but it serves the purpose of making it easy to remove | 04:34 |
| etcetera_ | heh fair enough just replace `make install` with `checkinstall`? | 04:35 |
| qman__ | yep | 04:35 |
| qman__ | of course you have to install checkinstall first | 04:35 |
| qman__ | but yeah, it'll make a .deb | 04:35 |
| qman__ | after asking a few questions | 04:35 |
| dns53 | i would like to move my / file system to another drive, any advice? | 06:08 |
| dns53 | i'm thinking of booting a live cd and using dd to copy the partition | 06:09 |
| dns53 | is there anything i need to consider in order to boot from the copy? | 06:09 |
| smw | dns53, I would just mount both drives and copy the files | 06:11 |
| smw | ymmv | 06:11 |
| dns53 | that will never work for databases if you like the contents | 06:12 |
| dns53 | you cannot safely copy a writeable file system as a file may change while you copy it | 06:13 |

| genii-around | azertyu: Please don't post the same question in multiple channels | 13:43 |
| azertyu | lol is there any problem ? U | 13:44 |
| genii-around | azertyu: You should ask your question in the channel for the distribution you are having the problem with..eg: ubuntu problem...#ubuntu ..ubuntu server problem ..#ubuntu-server ...and so on | 13:46 |
| azertyu | can anyone help me to ignore an user ? | 13:46 |
| djdexter | i have ubuntu server and lamp.. how to link when i create new user to have its own WWW space | 16:22 |

| ksx4system | how do I use Dropbear (dbclient) as ssh client (= ssh command) after un-installing openssh-client? | 16:52 |
| jmarsden | ksx4system: dbclient user@example.com # should work fine | 17:15 |
| ksx4system | jmarsden: i know how to use dbclient :P i just needed to use command ssh for dbclient, a symbolic link fixed this | 19:32 |
| matti | RoyK: Hehe, you wanted matt, didn't you? :) | 22:29 |
| dassouki | any dropbox like apps i can use on my server? | 22:42 |
| JanC | dassouki: what exactly do you need? | 22:44 |
| dassouki | make a folder on my server for fast gui access, one of our isps blocks dropbox | 22:45 |
| JanC | fast GUI access for yourself or others? | 22:46 |
| dassouki | myself only | 22:46 |
| JanC | so, just use ssh/sftp? | 22:46 |
| dassouki | well, if i'm on my windows machine, I can't just click on an app's File/Open and open the file | 22:46 |
| JanC | you can if you have an ssh/scp/sftp plugin for Explorer | 22:47 |
| qman__ | that, or you could VPN and use samba | 22:47 |
| JanC | not sure if there exists one that is open source or freeware | 22:47 |
| amero | hey | 22:47 |
| dassouki | i'm willing to pay | 22:47 |
| dassouki | well within $50 | 22:47 |
| JanC | I remember one was included with the "Homesite" editor, 10 years ago ;) | 22:48 |
| qman__ | openvpn's pretty easy to do | 22:48 |
| dassouki | and i have openvpn setup | 22:49 |
| dassouki | as that's how i connect to my field counters in the middle of knowhere | 22:49 |
| JanC | then you could use samba, just make sure samba isn't exposed externally on the server | 22:49 |
| qman__ | you'll take a performance hit over a direct solution | 22:49 |
| dassouki | that's another story ... $10 a month to have a phone line installed $1,000 to get a electrical wire to the box | 22:49 |
| qman__ | but not much, 10% at the most | 22:49 |
| amero | any idea why these rules block outgoing get request from being established | 22:49 |
| amero | http://pastebin.com/wdKKFSvG | 22:49 |
| dassouki | so why isn't there an opensource alternative to drop box? | 22:50 |
| dassouki | free or not | 22:50 |
| qman__ | there are, just not for windows | 22:50 |
| qman__ | ubuntu one is basically the same idea | 22:50 |
| JanC | dassouki: you could try ubuntuone for windows, which is experimental AFAIK ;) | 22:50 |
| JanC | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Windows | 22:51 |
| dassouki | JanC: i guess, I have my own server, I was just wondering if there was an app i could've instaleld | 22:52 |
| qman__ | amero, you're not allowing related,established on any actual interfaces, just the vmnet0 | 22:53 |
| JanC | http://www.swish-sftp.org/ seems useful ;) | 22:53 |
| dassouki | what's your experience with CRMs ? I run a 3 person shop, and I was considering using Zimbra | 22:54 |
| dassouki | any other solutions you might recommend for a server / mail solution, CRM,etc ? | 22:55 |
| JanC | (seriously, why does one need open source to make Windows usable? :P ) | 22:55 |
| JanC | do you mean groupware or CRM or both? | 22:56 |
| dassouki | JanC: Cause linux fails at niche apps for non/programmers non itfield ppl | 22:56 |
| dassouki | i mean both | 22:56 |
| amero | qman__: why venet0 isnt the actual interface? | 22:56 |
| JanC | dassouki: linux includes proper support by default, it's Windows tah tneeds all sorts of cludges (provided by open source apps) ;) | 22:57 |
| JanC | I didn't know Zimbra did real CRM | 22:59 |
| dassouki | http://gallery.zimbra.com/category/crm/recent | 23:00 |
| dassouki | but anyways, All I'm trying to do is setup a server to run most of our needs, scheduler, mail-server, crm etc | 23:00 |
| JanC | ah, using plugins | 23:00 |
| dassouki | My budget would be around $200 to $500 | 23:01 |
| dassouki | to setup the whole shebang | 23:01 |
| JanC | sorry, not much experience with that; maybe somebody else can help with that | 23:02 |
| JanC | it might be possible to cobble everything together from open source too | 23:02 |
| dassouki | well some opensource costs money | 23:03 |
| dassouki | i'm willing to pay if i can save a headache and not have to get an it/sys admin | 23:03 |
| JanC | well, if you want other people to cobble things together... ;) | 23:03 |
| dassouki | ya there's elance for that lol | 23:04 |
| JanC | I think you should also make a list of what exactly you need from that CRM etc. | 23:06 |
| JanC | for example SugarCRM might be overkill for what you need ;) | 23:07 |
| jeeves_moss | how can I configure NTPd to accept NTP requests from global external requests? | 23:07 |
| jMCg | Which of uname -i, -m, -p returns i386 on a 32bit system? | 23:11 |
| jMCg | I suppose `arch` does.. | 23:12 |
| matti | jMCg: 32 bit might parse with i[0-9]86 ... | 23:13 |
| matti | jMCg: It might be i386, i686 ... | 23:13 |
| matti | jMCg: Probably everything not x86_64 is 32 bit on Intel / AMD platform. | 23:14 |
| matti | Well, besides Itanium ;] | 23:14 |
| jMCg | matti: don't want to parse, want to use to create lib/foo-linux-gnu style directory. | 23:14 |
| jMCg | matti: that will be ia64. | 23:14 |
| matti | Yes. | 23:14 |
| matti | Use arch then. | 23:15 |
| matti | I you need auto-discovery or something, or simply ship the directory you want ;] | 23:15 |
| jMCg | building my own stack from software from /trunk/ - it's.. fun :D | 23:16 |
| jeeves_moss | how can I configure NTPd to accept NTP requests from global external requests? | 23:16 |
| jpds | jeeves_moss: Remove the restrict clauses? | 23:17 |
| matti | jeeves_moss: Remove restrictions I guess. | 23:17 |
| matti | jpds: Hey hey hey ;] | 23:17 |
| JanC | jMCg: it seems that when run inside a Xen VM, only "uname -m" returns something useful for me | 23:20 |
| JanC | the other two return "unknown" there | 23:21 |
| jMCg | JanC: arch too? | 23:23 |
| jMCg | JanC: and what is the useful in this case? | 23:23 |
| JanC | arch returns the same as "uname -m", so that's useful too | 23:24 |
| JanC | they return "x86_64" in this case | 23:24 |
| jMCg | That are not the 32bit I was looking for ;) | 23:25 |
| JanC | ah, right | 23:25 |
| JanC | stuill, might be useful to know that the other 2 uname options are useless ;) | 23:25 |
| jMCg | JanC: 's fine, I'll stick with arch | 23:25 |
| JanC | I could check in a 32-bit VM I guess | 23:26 |
| JanC | jMCg: seems like both 'arch' and 'uname -m' return i686 inside a virtualbox VM | 23:28 |
| jMCg | JanC: weird. And which gives you i386 on 32? | 23:28 |
| JanC | is one supposed to? | 23:29 |
| JanC | maybe something related to building/linking ? | 23:31 |
