[00:09] <gua> any ideas on a good way to quickly set up method of file transfer for a single client? i'm thinking of stunnel+nfs or maybe rsync+rssh
[00:31] <pmatulis> gua: scp?  maybe provide some context
[00:33] <gua> rather than relying on usb sticks, i'm hoping to figure out a good way to temporarily share files on a public network/wifi that's encrypted somehow
[00:35] <pmatulis> gua: investigate the fuse-based sshfs filesystem
[00:50] <Adam__> hi all, I'm having issues with my server, I just ubuntu 11.04 server edition with lamp, open ssh, etc. I cped the default sites-available file and made my own for my fqdn, and to point to my site's directory, and I have DNS setup to point to my IP, forwarded port 22 - 80 to my server computer, but when I try to go to my site ( www.adamgleason.com) it won't connect, but I can ssh into it remotley, so it has to be something wrong w
[00:50] <Adam__> ith apache, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[02:51] <twb> Fun tip: next time lucid's mdadm gets completely confused on --assemble --scan, try using --metadata=1.2 instead of the default 0.9
[02:51] <twb> See, what happens with 0.9 is, it puts the metadata at the end of the partition.  If the partition happens to end at the same place as the disk ends, mdadm --assemble --scan will try to assemble the *disk* instead of the partition.
[02:52] <twb> This is usually not noticed because (I guess) partman/sfdisk align at the last CHS boundary or something, rather than running the partition to the very end of the disk
[02:52] <twb> Also newer non-LTS releases don't default to 0.9 format
[03:12] <mauricio> I'm having some trouble with work and I'd love to get some help.  I'll be happy to paypal a few bucks if anyone can help me out. I'm trying to run firefox/konqeuror from shell_exec in php
[03:13] <mauricio> im using suexec and i have no issues normally doing it from the terminal
[03:13] <mauricio> ran whoami on both ends, same user
[03:13] <mauricio> http://cl.ly/1O201A1W450M3d3O1M2w is a screenshot of what keeps happening
[03:13] <mauricio> Keeps saying ~/.kde can't be written to
[03:13] <mauricio> and i think with firefox it can't write to ~/.mozilla
[03:14] <mauricio> I'm not sure if its a permissions error or how to fix it or what
[03:20] <twb> Isn't suexec an apache thing?
[03:20] <twb> Why would apache be trying to write to .kde
[03:20] <mauricio> no thats when im running shell_exec
[03:21] <mauricio> and konqueror is just loading/writing settings
[03:21] <twb> I don't know what shell_exec is, either.
[03:21] <mauricio> similar to system()
[03:21] <twb> But probably what's happened is that root has overwritten dotfiles in your home directory, and now you can't overwrit them again.
[03:22] <twb> To get around this, you should use "sudo -i" or "sudo -H -s" or "su -" instead of just "sudo" or "su"
[03:22] <mauricio> well
[03:22] <twb> Doing so will cause HOME to be set to /root
[03:22] <mauricio> ill put it this way
[03:22] <mauricio> im not using a root account at all for this
[03:22] <mauricio> if i ssh and run DISPLAY=:1 konqueror &
[03:22] <mauricio> it works
[03:23] <mauricio> if i use php and use shell_exec or system(), and do the same command, it does not
[03:23] <twb> If you're doing systems programming in PHP: don't.
[03:23] <mauricio> lol
[03:23] <mauricio> im trying to get a simple screenshot server to work
[03:24] <mauricio> heck id settle for any lightweight way to generate multiple screenshots at once
[03:38] <qman__> yeah, PHP is just not up to a task like that
[03:38] <qman__> its system call methods are just plain awkward, even for simple tasks
[03:40] <twb> Also PHP is just plain wrong
[03:41] <mauricio> lol
[03:41] <mauricio> i tried python as well
[03:41] <mauricio> same behavior
[03:43] <mauricio> should i be thinking of running a simple http server, and starting that up from the terminal? im not sure
[03:44] <qman__> I wrote a user time management system for an all0windows Active Directory environment in PHP
[03:44] <qman__> boy was that ever a nightmare
[03:44] <mauricio> lol
[03:45] <qman__> unfortunately I don't know any other languages well enough to actually do it
[03:45] <mauricio> im talking start browser -> DISPLAY=:1 import
[03:45] <mauricio> :(
[03:45] <mauricio> its 2 commands which is a really pity
[03:45] <mauricio> *real
[03:45] <mauricio> i tried moz-repl but that was too slow :(
[03:45] <qman__> <- not a programmer
[03:46] <mauricio> yeah thats alright
[03:46] <qman__> I know how to program, I'm just not any good at it
[03:47] <qman__> said system I made does actually work though
[03:47] <qman__> took several weeks to work out the bugs
[03:49] <gua> mauricio: might be the lack of env vars from the thing you're launching konqueror from
[03:49] <mauricio> how would i go along with fixing that
[03:49] <mauricio> i did try something along those lines but maybe i did something different
[03:50] <mauricio> thats what the issue sounded like to me at first
[03:50] <gua> do a thing like "bash -c "DISPLAY=:1; konqueror"
[03:50] <mauricio> sec
[03:50] <gua> with your script
[03:50] <gua> so it'll load up .bashrc and .bash_profile and all that goodness
[03:52] <mauricio> not working at all on first try, give me just a minute
[03:53] <mauricio> bash -c DISPLAY=:1 konqueror & isn't working from the terminal either
[03:53] <gua> mauricio: gotta quote the stuff after bash -c
[03:53] <gua> bash -c "echo foo; echo bar"
[03:53] <mauricio> whoops
[03:53] <mauricio> sorry
[03:54] <mauricio> that was exactly what i was looking for!
[03:54] <mauricio> thanks
[03:54] <mauricio> you have no idea how much time i wasted
[03:54] <mauricio> lol
[03:54] <gua> aha
[03:54] <gua> gl then
[03:55] <gua> btw srsly, switch to python
[03:55] <mauricio> well to be honest for this it wouldnt matter
[03:55] <gua> bash+python will do 99% of stuff
[03:55] <mauricio> it makes no difference to me i guess
[03:56] <mauricio> in the end its just a tool
[03:56] <mauricio> i did code the same thing with python but this has more to do with suexec i think
[03:56] <van7hu> howdy
[03:57] <van7hu> I've installed snort-mysql successfully, where could my alert go in?
[04:08] <mauricio> ouch
[04:08] <mauricio> i got mixed up, bash -c did not work from php :(
[04:08] <mauricio> ill try to figure out but it didnt work
[04:09] <mauricio> ill setup python with the correct configuration first
[04:09] <mauricio> and try from there
[04:22] <gua> mauricio: same issue?
[04:23] <mauricio> actually i solved it just now
[04:23] <mauricio> not pretty but i got it
[04:23] <mauricio> lol
[04:23] <mauricio> took a python webserver script and using os.popen
[04:23] <mauricio> and from the terminal im starting it using python server.py
[04:23] <mauricio> and since i already have enough php code im calling that using php curl
[04:23] <mauricio> it works
[04:24] <mauricio> i tried it a while back but i got lucky this time
[04:24] <mauricio> ha
[04:24] <mauricio> but yeah not pretty but this is work and i gotta find a way
[04:25] <mauricio> now i just gotta see what i can come up with to scale this a bit more (want to generate multiple screenshots at once) but i can take it from here
[04:25] <mauricio> thanks
[04:26] <twb> mauricio: you might want to ask #python or ##php instead of here
[04:26] <mauricio> well sure but yeah i came on here because normally i have the same issue with both
[04:26] <mauricio> and it has to do more with suexec
[04:27] <mauricio> either way i got it now
[05:04] <kirkland> Daviey: RoAkSoAx: I'm thinking cobbler-enroll or orchestra could use something like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/675028/
[05:04] <kirkland> Daviey: RoAkSoAx: to take the target baremetal system and give it tags or classes for the instance types that this baremetal machine could host
[05:05] <kirkland> Daviey: RoAkSoAx I'm thinking this would make the ensemble bits be able to deploy to the "right" or "best" physical machine more easily
[05:23] <shang> kirkland: ping, after I install Orchestra on Oneiric, I tried running cobbler check, but nothing shows up. any ideas?
[05:42] <MACscr> so i have a working ubuntu guest that I am going to create an image of so I can use it to create other guests. I currently dont use ipv6, but would still like the image to be ipv6 friendly. For some odd reason the ubuntu system is showing ipv6 addresses in ifconfig. I dont have ipv6 setup for the guest in the guest xen cfg, so where is it adding these addresses? they arent in network/interfaces
[05:43] <twb> MACscr: ipv6 is on by default
[05:43] <twb> MACscr: the design of ipv6 is that you get an address automatically, even without DHCP or similar
[05:43] <CluelessPerson> hey guys.
[05:43] <CluelessPerson> I have a question about ddclient
[05:43] <CluelessPerson> it's giving me an error, cannot get ip address or something ismilar to that.
[05:43] <twb> MACscr: for more about this, read up on ICMPv6
[05:43] <MACscr> rwb: how can get addreses by default if nothing is serving them? thats stupid
[05:44] <twb> MACscr: your machine *will* respond to requests on those addresses
[05:44] <twb> If it's (say) physically unplugged, that just means it'll still respond, but nothing can actually talk to it.
[05:44] <MACscr> why the hell did they design things that way? whats the point in a system mysteriously creating its own addresses?
[05:45] <twb> MACscr: for the same reason DHCP exists -- networks that require less babysitting are easier for non-technical people to maintain, and cheaper for technical people to maintain.
[05:46] <twb> MACscr: and it's only "mysterious" to you because you don't understand how IPv6 works.
[05:46] <MACscr> but the point of dhcp is to have a central place to control things imho
[05:46] <MACscr> which this obviously defeats
[05:47] <twb> MACscr: I suggest you either study IPv6, turn it off on your machines, or just live with the way it is.
[05:47] <trapmax> how can i get rid of "File descriptor 15 (socket:[6111]) leaked on lvremove invocation. Parent PID /bin/bash" when running a cron job?
[05:47] <twb> MACscr: I am not interested in discussing whether it's a good or a bad thing.
[05:47] <MACscr> rwb	you obviously dont have to reply here if you dont want to
[05:47] <twb> MACscr: you've had over a decade to discuss it with IETF if you cared.
[05:48] <MACscr> not thanks for the info
[05:48] <MACscr> er, but thanks
[05:48] <twb> No worries
[05:48] <twb> FWIW because I am not an IPv6 expert and because I am not actually using it yet, *I* explicitly disable the IPv6 stack on most of my systems
[05:49] <MACscr> twb: so is there not a way just disable the automatic part and still allow it to be assigned a static ipv6 if needed?
[05:50] <twb> MACscr: I'm not 100% sure, I think it picks an address only if you don't assign one, but it might keep that address *in addition* to any you assign.
[05:51] <twb> Incidentally, I highly recommend O'Reilly's IPv6 book
[05:51] <CluelessPerson> I'm getting an error from ddclient "unable to detect ip address"  why would it do that?
[05:54] <twb> MACscr: got a turtle on the cover
[05:54] <twb> CluelessPerson: are you running it on the host that does PPPoE?
[05:54] <MACscr> twb: thanks anyway. I have enough info to absorb in my work, let alone techs that techs that i dont use
[05:54] <twb> CluelessPerson: that is, did you type your adsl username and password into the modem, or into the ubuntu box?
[05:54] <CluelessPerson> twb  I don't think so, I'm not very knowlegable about that though
[05:55] <CluelessPerson> twb didn't at all
[05:55] <twb> CluelessPerson: ok, are you using adsl at all?  This is a home network, yeah?
[05:55] <CluelessPerson> twb  Verizon Fios.
[05:55] <CluelessPerson> so no.
[05:56] <twb> OK, so what gets the dynamic IP address, the cable modem or the ubuntu box?
[05:56] <twb> CluelessPerson: how about: pastebin the output of "ip a" on the ubuntu box
[05:56] <CluelessPerson> the verizon fios modem/router.
[05:57] <twb> CluelessPerson: you need to run ddclient on the host that has the public IP
[05:57] <CluelessPerson> twb  I set it up the same way on my previous server and it worked.
[05:57] <CluelessPerson> This server is just an upgrade, so I have to assume this is the host?
[05:58] <twb> CluelessPerson: in that case I dunno
[05:58] <MACscr> twb: i added the following to my sysctl.conf 'net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 0' and i rebooted. When i run: lsmod | grep ipv6, it doesnt show any info. Which is good. But the ip's are still showing in ifconfig
[05:58] <twb> MACscr: ipv6 is compiled in
[05:58] <twb> MACscr: i.e. it's =y not =m
[05:59] <twb> MACscr: 15:59 <dpkg> To disable use of <IPv6> on Lenny: echo install ipv6 /bin/true >> /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf (and reboot for this change to take effect).  From Squeeze onwards, IPv6 is built into the kernel (excluding loongson-2f flavour), add the kernel command line option ipv6.disable=1 to your bootloader.
[06:03] <MACscr> ah, looks like 'net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1' was the updated setting
[06:04] <twb> accept_ra will be Router Advertisements, which is how IPv6 automatically acquires rules for "ip r".
[07:50] <philipballew> whats a good guide to setting up a vpn server?
[08:24] <CluelessPerson> hi
[08:24] <CluelessPerson> I have deluge installed on my server
[08:24] <CluelessPerson> and it looks like the webui isn't running for some reason.
[08:34] <CluelessPerson> I can't access the webui of deluge, can someone help me figure this out?
[08:38] <linocisco> hi all, I would like to ask generic questions on DHCP
[08:44] <CluelessPerson> most are asleep and I barely know anything
[08:44] <CluelessPerson> and my effing deluge webui won't f****** start and gives no errors or log
[08:44] <CluelessPerson> so fu**
[08:45] <twb> CluelessPerson: did you read README.Debian and /etc/default/deluge-web ?
[08:45] <twb> CluelessPerson: is deluged installed and running?
[08:45] <CluelessPerson> I have before but that was a long time ago
[08:46] <CluelessPerson> twb  The deluge daemon is running, but I don't think the webui is.
[08:46] <twb> !ask > linocisco
[08:47] <CluelessPerson> twb  and deluge is set to start at startup
[08:47] <CluelessPerson> but I don't see a web ui.
[08:47] <CluelessPerson> twb  It worked earlier, then I restarted the server, I think that's what happened.
[08:47] <CluelessPerson> twb  and now I have no idea of what to do.
[08:49] <linocisco> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/675101/
[08:51] <CluelessPerson> restarting the server, see if something stupid might make the deluge webui work again
[08:52]  * CluelessPerson is annoyed that people don't make their applications simply autoinstall similar to basically all windows applications
[08:52] <CluelessPerson> "Would you like this to run automatically at startup?"
[08:53] <CluelessPerson> bam, autoinstall, take care of it's own crap instead of having me manually configure every detail, frustrating
[08:53]  * CluelessPerson sighs, because he bitched like a little child and it works after simply restarting his server.

[09:45] <linocisco> _ruben: no spam
[09:45] <linocisco> _ruben: as I got no reply so far, and according to forum rule, I am reposting it
[09:45] <CluelessPerson> I've been watching.
[09:46] <CluelessPerson> and I'm a linux newb so I can't help you. ;_;
[09:46] <_ruben> first 3 times within a minute, then 8 times within a minute .. that's not conforming any forum rules i'm aware of, nor is this a forum
[09:47] <CluelessPerson> he's certainly not harming anything though.
[09:48] <linocisco> _ruben: as the screen is scrolling down, I am afraid others won't be aware. that is why I am reposting. It is just gentle reminder not to bother you with full paragraph like essay
[09:48] <CluelessPerson> linocisco  Also, the english of your pastebin is a little bit hard to undestand
[09:48] <CluelessPerson> Can you explain again what's happening
[09:48] <CluelessPerson> ?
[09:49] <CluelessPerson> You only want to use one server, the ubuntu server for dhcp service to the child machines?
[09:49] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: sure. I am afraid it is diffcult for you to understand.
[09:49] <CluelessPerson> turn off the dhcp service on the other new server.
[09:49] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: that is the point. you got. it.
[09:49] <CluelessPerson> ?
[09:49] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: I did
[09:49] <ersi> linocisco: I'd take a look at the DHCP config on that new box and set up some restrictions. Or setup a firewall.
[09:49] <CluelessPerson> so what's happening?
[09:50] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: but my some clients are still searching old DHCP server and as they could not find. they got no IP.
[09:50] <CluelessPerson> all on the same lan?
[09:50] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: I turned off the other DHCP source. I left only one. but some clients are still seeking that stopped DHCP source
[09:51] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: sure. in the same lan with same subnet
[09:51] <CluelessPerson> hrm.
[09:51] <CluelessPerson> I assume everything has been rebooted
[09:52] <ersi> There's no need to restart anything :P
[09:52] <CluelessPerson> that's just what I'd do.
[09:52] <CluelessPerson> restart the clients still seeking the new server having been removed
[09:53] <_ruben> only broken clients wouldn't pick up a new dhcp server automagically
[09:53] <_ruben> unless the network's broken too
[09:57] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: I have rebooted /shutdown every clients. that does not solve. all clients are windows XP
[09:58] <linocisco> _ruben: network or cable or clients are not broken.
[09:58] <CluelessPerson> like I said, I know very little about this
[09:59] <CluelessPerson> but I'd check the DNS/similar settings of one of the clients and see if yhou can force it to get the ip from the ubuntu server's lan ip address
[09:59] <CluelessPerson> and by very little I mean nothing.
[09:59] <CluelessPerson> ;)
[10:00] <trapmax> linocisco: maybe try flushing xp client's dnscache and release/renew dhcp conf
[10:00] <linocisco> CluelessPerson: unless we can give static IP on each clients. getting DHCP IP , will have the same problem unless we can change mac
[10:01] <RudyValencia> It's kinda weird, I'm sitting here listening to the "Cisco default hold music" on loop - it feels like really being on hold
[10:02] <CluelessPerson> RudyValencia  I can tell you that Toshiba's hold music hasn't changed in 5 years.
[10:02] <RudyValencia> Do they use the "Cisco default hold music"?
[10:02] <CluelessPerson> Please don't ask how I know that, needless to say, I'm never buying a toshiba product again.
[10:02] <RudyValencia> I see - too much time on hold with them eh?
[10:03] <CluelessPerson> lol, I'm sure it's just their brand of your song. ;p
[10:03] <RudyValencia> like, whatever hold music their default is?
[10:04] <RudyValencia> Ever been on hold at a place that uses a Cisco VoIP system?
[10:05] <RudyValencia> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5ZvUYhIeoQ <- this is what I've got on loop
[10:05] <RudyValencia> (not the YouTube video, but the actual WAV file
[10:15] <trapmax> better with ytrepeater: http://www.youtuberepeater.com/watch?v=K5ZvUYhIeoQ
[10:16] <RudyValencia> I prefer the original file
[10:17] <trapmax> with repeater one can simulate proper waiting times
[10:17] <RudyValencia> It seems about right with the WAV

[11:28] <ersi> I'd assume you'd fetch the packages (.deb's) and then do some command line parameter to apt-get or so
[11:29] <ersi> linocisco: ^
[11:29] <ersi> or put the debs in the 'package cache' that apt maintains.. If you hold your horses, I'll check what dir it is
[11:30] <linocisco> where is package cache ?
[11:30] <linocisco> ersi: where is package cache that apt maintains ?
[11:30] <ersi> Seems like it's in /var/cache/apt/archives/ from reading 'man apt-get'
[11:31] <ersi> Dude, I'm not all knowing.. I need to look stuff up, even if I know where to look. Please be patient when asking others to help :(
[11:31] <linocisco> ersi: so I should copy or move installer .deb file into that path and run from that location ?
[11:32] <ersi> if you'd grab the .debs needed for all the packages that you need, I think you should just put the .debs in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and run "apt-get install packages-wanted"
[11:32] <ersi> I'm not 100% sure, but pretty sure it'll work
[11:32] <linocisco> ersi: i see. If someone is taking into action on my questions , I wont buzz others.
[11:32] <ersi> remember dependencies (which you can look up on packages.ubuntu.com) if you don't know which they are :)
[11:33] <linocisco> ersi: I know where package.ubuntu.com. there are nested dependencies. DO i need to download all down the path ?
[11:33] <ersi> yes, you need the dependencies as well, to install the package you want
[11:34] <linocisco> ersi: apt-get install or dpkg -i  filename.deb ?
[11:34] <ersi> I was talking about apt-get install
[11:35] <linocisco> ersi:  ok thanks TGIF. I will try in the weekends see you

[12:54] <EriksLV> hi
[12:55] <EriksLV> stupid question: I have a box with Intel i3 CPU. Can I install amd64 version of server?
[12:55] <EriksLV> this "Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead." makes me ask
[12:56] <EriksLV> ah, nevermind
[12:56] <EriksLV> core 2, so it will work
[12:59] <ersi> EriksLV: Indeed, correct conclusion mate :)
[13:00] <EriksLV> any major differences between 32bit and 64bit versions?
[13:00] <EriksLV> I'm not asking about memory support
[13:04] <_ruben> support for 64bits apps :)
[13:06] <ersi> EriksLV: Yeah, what _ruben wrote. You can't run 64-bit compiled applications in a 32-bit environment. But wise versa works just fine
[13:07] <EriksLV> :)
[13:08] <_ruben> unless the 32bit app requires some exotic 32bit libs
[13:10] <ersi> but you could have that exotic 32bit lib in a 64-bit env ;o
[13:30] <smoser> soren, yes.
[13:31] <smoser> wait.
[13:31] <smoser> no.  you cannot.
[13:31] <soren> smoser: Then how would it be an..
[13:31] <soren> ok.
[13:31] <soren> Good :)
[13:31] <smoser> (I thought you were referring to a different bug)
[13:31] <soren> I never do.
[13:32] <soren> I always refer to the bug I mean.

[16:04] <KM0201> is there a way to stream mediatomb files, from the server to other machines on the network?
[16:04] <KM0201> i've read the documentation, and it always refers to streams from other sources (like youtube, etc.)
[16:05] <cloakable> Streaming local content is the main purpose of mediatomb o.o
[16:05] <KM0201> cloakable: thats my point, i just can't figure out..
[16:05] <KM0201> i can download files just fine via the mediatomb "web page"
[16:05] <cloakable> KM0201: Been a while since I use MT
[16:06] <KM0201> but i can't stream them.
[16:06] <cloakable> Can your media renderers see the server?
[16:06] <KM0201> i dunno lemme try again
[16:07] <KM0201> i was trying to play it through a web browser, but now that i think about it, that doesn't make sense
[16:07] <cloakable> Not really
[16:07] <KM0201> what do i put for URL?.. the path to the file i want to stream?
[16:08] <cloakable> It should show up automatically via UPnP
[16:08] <cloakable> That's the point of mediatomb
[16:09] <KM0201> whats a UPnP client i can use on Ubuntu?
[16:09] <KM0201> i dont think i really understood what mediatomb was supposed to do...
[16:10] <cloakable> try the rhythmbox upnp plugin
[16:10] <cloakable> what did you think it was for?
[16:10] <KM0201> you can't watch movies w/ rhythmbox
[16:11] <cloakable> No music in it?
[16:11] <KM0201> no, not right now, just videos
[16:11] <cloakable> try djmount, it's a fuse filesystem to mount all detected upnp mediaservers into the filesystem
[16:12] <cloakable> useful for testing

[16:50] <Daviey> RoAkSoAx: via ssh socks?
[16:51] <marshall> hey ubuntu server, I'm having some issues with some NFS home directories mounted with autofs. It seems that applications and scripts aren't allowed to write into my home folder, even though I'm able to write into it just fine.
[16:53] <pmatulis> marshall: why do you assume a script can write somewhere just because you can?
[16:53] <pmatulis> marshall: i.e. what user is the script running as?
[16:53] <RoAkSoAx> Daviey in any situation
[16:54] <marshall> I'm running the script. Also, vim seems unable to write to ~/.viminfo
[16:54] <pmatulis> marshall: nfsv4 prolly right?
[16:55] <marshall> another case is where I'm trying to install packages through npm (node package manager), and it reports that it doesn't have permission to add the packages to a cache inside ~/.npm
[16:55] <marshall> yeah I believe I'm using v4
[16:55] <pmatulis> marshall: well, v4 can have some acl stuff going on
[16:55] <marshall> acl?
[16:55] <marshall> what does that stand for?
[16:56] <pmatulis> marshall: http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=nfsv4+acl&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
[16:59] <marshall> pmatulis: ok. So v4 uses a different ACL from standard posix?
[17:00] <pmatulis> marshall: it can, yes
[17:00] <marshall> pmatulis: so I guess I want to force it to use posix acl?
[17:00] <pmatulis> marshall: first determine what's running on the server, is it really v4
[17:00] <marshall> ok
[17:01] <marshall> pmatulis: when I do nfsstat, the only category with values is v4
[17:02] <pmatulis> marshall: and the mount command should show some stuff
[17:02] <marshall> pmatulis: ok

[17:54] <jdstrand> SpamapS, zul: 5.3.7 had a regression I thought, and 5.3.8 was ok. I haven't looked a ton at it, but 5.3.8 has a bunch of security fixes
[17:55] <zul> php is one big regression ;)
[17:55] <SpamapS> jdstrand: they're talking about it on php-internals right now
[17:56] <SpamapS> If anything we'd want to do 5.3.9
[17:56] <jdstrand> SpamapS: I see. ok. we need to get oneiric updated and a merge seems the path of least resistance there. sounds like you are on top of it though
[17:56] <SpamapS> Maybe we can look through the changelog, but we all know what massive balls of change php patch releases are.
[17:57] <SpamapS> jdstrand: well I'd resolved to shipping w/ 5.3.6 ...
[17:57] <SpamapS> jdstrand: but if thats going to make security's life difficult..
[17:57] <SpamapS> I really do wish they'd split the security fixes into like, 5.3.6.1
[18:01] <mdeslaur> SpamapS: +1!
[18:01] <SpamapS> I wonder if anybody has ever asked them to do that tho
[18:01] <mdeslaur> SpamapS: would be nice to have the regression-causing security fixes split out from the regression-causing improvements
[18:01] <jdstrand> php5 is always a pain. natty has 5.3.5, so it is at least conceivable that that it won't be hugely more difficult. but a merge would be easier. we'll defer to the server team
[18:05] <SpamapS> jdstrand: let me take a peek at the changes list in 5.3.7 and 5.3.8 .. they *have* been deferring a lot to 5.4 lately

[21:03] <utlemming> or crib off it
[21:23] <Daviey> utlemming / SpamapS: Have you been able to do triage today?
[21:24] <SpamapS> Daviey: I was just sitting down to it. :)
[21:24] <Daviey> rocking! :)
[21:34] <nick__________> Hi all, I have ubuntu 9.10 server installed on a headless machine in my basement.  I received a thin client from a friend, and installed ltsp on the server.  Upon realizing that ltsp needs a desktop environment to run, I installed ubuntu-desktop on my server.  After restart, my server boots, but my samba shares aren't found, ssh is broken, however I can still ping by host name and ip address.
[21:35] <nick__________> i'm assuming that it is all broken, because the server downstairs is hung on the login page?
[21:36] <nick__________> is there a way around this? or will I have to go down to the basement and login to a user everytime I restart the server?
[21:36] <qman__> nick__________, whether or not X is working correctly would not affect sshd
[21:37] <qman__> the default login manager is gdm, and is controlled as a normal service, i.e. sudo service gdm start|stop|restart
[21:37] <qman__> what likely happened is NetworkManager got installed and broke your networking
[21:37] <qman__> just uninstall that from the system locally, check your network settings, and you should be good
[21:38] <nick__________> of course, that makes much sense
[21:41] <nick__________> before I go down and hook everything up to the server, if the hostname and ip address didn't change, what in network manager would break sshd and samaba shares?
[21:49] <JRWR> im running php-fpm in a chroot (using dchroot) and I wanted to make a app armor profile for it using aa-autodep if my path to my chroot is /var/chroot, how would i tell aa-autodep what path to use
[22:04] <nick__________> so I got a monitor hooked up to the server, and the reason my ssh and samba are broken, is because it's only booting to initramfs
[22:30] <TheEvilPhoenix> nick__________:  there's usually an error accompanying the initramfs boot
[22:30] <TheEvilPhoenix> whats the error?
[22:31] <nick__________> lemme get the exact, gotta run downstairs, but basically, mounting /sdc1 fails
[22:33] <nick__________> ok, well i just restarted from liveCD and it found errors on sda1 and want's to fix them, it also mentioned that it's trying to boot from sda1, when sdc1 is my boot drive
[22:34] <nick__________> before all this, it was booting to initramfs, if that is relevent
[22:41] <p3rsist> Anyone has found a deb package for DRBD 3.8.11 for Lucid?
[23:10] <TheEvilPhoenix> p3rsist:  "DRBD"?
[23:14] <adam_g> p3rsist: 8.3.11, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/drbd8
[23:16] <p3rsist> adam_g, Yes. But Im on lucid. How can I install a package from Oneiric Ocelot ?
[23:20] <adam_g> p3rsist: the drbd package from oneiric wont do you much good on lucid
[23:22] <TheEvilPhoenix> wth is drbd?
[23:22] <p3rsist> adam_g,  I will compile from source.
[23:22] <adam_g> TheEvilPhoenix: www.drbd.org
[23:27] <adam_g> w/whois p3rsist
[23:27] <adam_g> p3rsist: you can just apt-get install the pkgs in lucid and you'll have 8.3.11
[23:30] <adam_g> p3rsist: sorry, 8.3.7 is in lucid.
[23:31] <adam_g> p3rsist: the drbd packages for oneiric require a matching kernel, as the kernel modules for drbd now exist within the mainline kernel (as of the kernel after lucid's)
