cyberangerorangeninja: are you looking at a 10/100 or 10/100/100002:17
* cyberanger wants a 10GigE, and a nice fat wallet, unfortunately I have neither02:17
wrsthowdy cyberanger02:26
Unit193Howja wrst02:27
cyberangerhey wrst & Unit19302:28
Unit193Howdy to you too, cyberanger02:28
wrstgreetings Unit19302:28
wrstcyberanger,Unit193 all going well?02:28
Unit193Wow... That highlight worked well actually... Sure, why not..02:29
Unit193wrst: How you doing?02:31
* Unit193 tried to setup oidentd to his liking and failed02:31
cyberangerI'm doing fairly well, massive backup complete02:34
cyberanger(anything to keep my mind going lately ;-))02:35
wrstcool cyberanger, I'm doing well Unit19302:35
cyberangerand about to reinstall all my systems02:35
wrstwow cyberanger02:36
cyberangeryeah, yesterday I did some router optimizations02:38
cyberangerand firewall upgrades02:38
* cyberanger is getting bored with sitting around on weekends & looking for work is getting old too02:39
cyberanger(that's not me giving up, just saying something different needed to happen yesterday & today)02:39
cyberangergot a test for a job on tuesday, and I think I'll get that job02:40
cyberangerfederal job, which is my concern lately, as far as staying in tennessee, idk if that's likely02:41
cyberangerI put willing to travel, and seems the open positions are elsewhere02:41
orangeninjacyberanger: it doesent matter I guess...02:46
cyberangerorangeninja: the difference is speed on the lan, but I've come to the same conclusion a few times myself (a fast lan is nice, the wan is too slow though)02:48
cyberangerin that case, I really would look at a switch, >$3002:48
orangeninjayeah02:48
cyberangersomething that old, made by microsoft, no longer supported (and there is alot of MS networking that just seems to fail for me)02:49
cyberangerand comcast is a mild improvement02:49
orangeninjaI am on Xfinity so my WAN is pretty fast. I am using a Dlink dgl-4500 wired/wirless N 5Ghz band02:50
cyberangerbut not over 100MB fast I'd bet02:51
cyberangeryour WAN I mean02:52
orangeninjaOh No....02:52
cyberangerWireless N should be capable of it, but I've learned wifi is more effective at a lower rate02:52
cyberangerless packet drop, less retransmit, lower signal to noise02:53
cyberangermakes it effectively a higer rate, due to that02:53
* cyberanger wishes he could have explained that better02:53
orangeninjalol you're fine. All wired ports are filled so if I had a small switch it would open the door to a few more machines for when I am messing around02:54
cyberangeryeah, that'd be worthwhile02:57
orangeninjawhat yall think about getting a linux distro that would run on an old IBM Thinkpad T42 1.6Ghz 512MB ram....LOL03:11
cyberangerorangeninja: worthwhile03:12
Unit193Shouldn't be hard03:14
orangeninjawas thinking about a USB drive type like http://spi.dod.mil/lipose.htm03:17
Unit193I'm guessing cyberanger is going to say something about that ;)03:18
cyberangerUnit193: we have two logbots here, why repeat03:20
cyberanger(plus my comments were more towards the DoD using it than us)03:20
Unit193I do understand that...03:20
orangeninjawhoops I must have missed something good... how do I use a log bot? lol03:29
cyberangerorangeninja: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/08/01/%23ubuntu-us-tn.txt03:35
cyberangerthere, it's used ;-)03:35
cyberangerubuntulo1_:03:35
orangeninjalol nice03:59
Unit193Anyone happen to know oident?04:00
Juzzy<--04:06
* Unit193 ponders asking a dumb question...04:16
Unit193Alright, I have two computers running something to do with IRC (one bot), I installed oidentd on the one with the bot (192.168.1.23) and I'm running irssi on 192.168.1.135. What I'm trying to do is get the bot to answer JITBot (done) but irssi to answer Ukikie, can I do this? (irssi has it set in it's config for that name) Here are my config files http://paste.ubuntu.com/656086/04:23
Juzzyfrom the same user? no04:24
Juzzyrun the bot under a different user.04:24
Unit193Different computers and forwarding doesn't help either? Dang.04:25
JuzzyThe $HOME/.oidentd.conf file allows a user to specify what ident response will be returned for specific connections.04:25
Juzzyman oidentd.conf04:25
Juzzywhat I just do is start it using -r04:26
Juzzy-r Xinu04:26
Juzzythen any unknown gets returned as Xinu, and any local accounts get resolved as whatever I tell it to04:26
Unit193Thanks. Looks like I'll just idnore it for now :/04:34
Juzzyeh ok04:34
Unit193From what I understood, I'm not that bright and I would have to make another user for the bot04:35
Juzzyya, so?04:35
Juzzyyou should anyways04:35
Unit193That's very true, but it's not really a fully used bot (Not really in any big channels) Making another user is the only idea I really had too04:37
Unit193I guess that's on the projects todo list (And getting the cleaning up after it)04:40
wrsthowdy Xpistos13:13
Xpistosyee-haw!13:18
wrstXpistos: good monday?13:22
Xpistosbusy13:22
Xpistosyou?13:22
wrstbusy also, I guess that is good :)13:35
* cyberanger wishes he was busy in the same manner14:32
wrstcyberanger: any luck on that front?14:32
cyberangerI'm just going through all my computer parts, looking for another project (I'd be looking if I wasn't planning on burning about 4 gallons of gas tommorow)14:37
cyberangerso I think I have some luck, gotta pass this test & the rest is easy14:38
cyberanger(I've gotta pass the drug test, they aren't looking for vodka or advil, gotta mention I take Claritan-D though, migitate a false positive, and pass a credit check)14:39
wrstahh yes good ol' claritan d i take that on occasion also :)14:40
cyberanger(my credit isn't pretty, but thankfully they set the bar higher than all my debts, and their only counting deliquent debt above 7500 as a disqualifer, student loans are my biggest issue, and their not dilquent and their not that high)14:41
cyberangerafter that, it's training in Oklahoma City (I think) and from there idk14:42
wrstI have to say I've always felt checking someone's credit history seems a little obtrusive, while I understand they why14:42
wrstoh wow cyberanger14:42
cyberangerwell, I'm not a fan of that practice either, but it is an effective anti-bribery measure14:45
wrstcyberanger: will you be working in the area still?14:46
cyberangerand hence why I've done that before (However I think they are more worried about theives, either way, the check will be clean enough, and it'll start looking cleaner once they hire me & I earn some paychecks)14:46
wrstpaychecks are a wonderful thing!14:46
cyberangerindeed14:47
cyberangerI'm hoping I'll get the huntsville job, closest open position to TN14:48
cyberangerand in a way, I'll have priority if another opens up putting me back in TN, since I'd have already taken at least some of the tests & passed some of the checks14:49
cyberangerGives me priority to another federal job too14:50
cyberangerso do this for 6 months, look at my options, if they stink, keep doing this14:51
cyberangerthe fact I've made it this far in the process means I'll likely get it14:52
cyberangerbut until then, I keep looking14:54
cyberangerI keep working on my systems, my radios14:54
cyberangeranything to keep my mind busy & positive14:54
wrsthuntsville wouldn't be too bad15:04
cyberangeryeah, and so close to the state line, I could live in TN still15:09
cyberangerbut I applied willing to relocate for any position, so idk15:10
cyberangerif I'm lucky, I'll get huntsville or North Syracuse, NY15:14
cyberanger(close proximity to some family, North Syracuse would be nice)15:15
cyberangernone of TN has a position, if chattanooga did, I'd be happy15:16
cyberangerone hour's pay covers gas & the next saved up for maintance15:17
cyberangerand the rest can pay off debts15:17
cyberangerno moving15:17
wrstmoving stinks :)15:18
cyberangerand you'll be reminded of that soon enough15:23
cyberangerif you haven't already15:23
cyberanger;-)15:23
cyberangerthe nice bit is I can move out of here fairly quickly, I moved single handedly in 2 hours15:24
cyberangerI think this time I could cut that in half15:24
cyberangerI've gotten used to moving from boarding school (at least twice each year for 4 years, that's not counting moving dorms & dorm rooms, which easily make it double)15:27
cyberangerI've been in this apartment nearly two months, the other unit was just shy of three years, the last time I stayed in one place that long, ended in 200215:29
cyberangerI can see myself going back to that lifestyle, but I'm not wishing for that15:30
cyberangerwrst: has your move happened yet?15:32
wrstin a couple of weeks, we have someone coming to look at our house today hopefully they will bite15:33
cyberangerso you've not moved into the new place then15:33
wrstno closing next week I do beleive15:34
cyberangerclosing on the new home, I thought that closed already?15:39
wrstno gotta go next week, after title searches, appraisals etc etc are all complete15:50
cyberangerah15:57
wrstor atleast in theory cyberanger16:00
cyberangerintresting moves for us ahead then16:03
wrstsounds more so for you16:09
wrsti'm just moving 5 minutes cyberanger16:09
cyberangerwrst: you sure? I was thinking it was 5 minutes away, 5 minutes driving time16:10
cyberangeronly people I know who move that quick live out of footlockers & suitcases16:11
cyberanger(and since I don't know about myself literally moving, I was seaking figuratively, like a chess game move)16:12
cyberangerlooking at what lies ahead16:12
wrstha ha yes driving time... probably take several hours... probably days to get everything moved by everthing I mean piddly junk :)16:15
Xpistosany body heard from pace_t_zulu lately?18:40
