pythonirc101I am looking to put a machine somewhere on the web  (fast and reliable network connection) so that i can control and host webpages (and applications written in python). I am in the US and would not like to pay too much for just electricity and network connectivity. Has anyone faced this problem here? Any pointers to solutions?00:14
warzauwynnpythonirc101: which colocation facilities have you looked at?00:15
warzauwynnpythonirc101: have you looked at VPS?00:15
pythonirc101i did not know about colocation , will look at VPS now00:16
qman__colo is expensive00:16
qman__leasing a VPS or even a dedicated server is usually much cheaper00:16
warzauwynnyeah, i'd only go colo if you need to have your own hardware, which is seldom the case.00:16
TheEvilPhoenix^00:16
TheEvilPhoenixVPS or dedicated servers are ALWAYS better because they're cheaper00:17
TheEvilPhoenixi'm speaking from experience there :P00:17
pythonirc101what is VPS?00:17
warzauwynnvirtual private server.00:17
TheEvilPhoenixvirtual private server00:17
TheEvilPhoenixbasically...00:17
qman__expect a colo to cost 5-10 times more than a dedicated server00:17
warzauwynn"the cloud"!!!!!! OMG00:17
TheEvilPhoenixits a server that is run virtually off of a host node00:17
warzauwynnhaha00:17
pythonirc101how much cost am i looking at? for electricity and network cable?00:17
qman__and a dedicated server to cost 10-30 times more than a VPS00:18
TheEvilPhoenixpythonirc101:  for colo?00:18
pythonirc101i dont mind getting the hardware from the provider or paying for it myself.00:18
qman__at work, I'm in the process of decommissioning a colo box we pay $500/mo for00:18
TheEvilPhoenixelectricity, networking, power, rent of space  in the facility, bandwidth, etc.00:18
TheEvilPhoenixnot to mention the actual hardware can cost horrid amounts00:18
TheEvilPhoenixi bought a Dell PowerEdge 2500, cost me $250000:18
TheEvilPhoenixthen put that thing into colo00:18
qman__you can find dedicated servers starting around $100/mo00:18
TheEvilPhoenix^00:19
qman__and VPSes, depending on how reliable you need them, anywhere from $5 up00:19
TheEvilPhoenix^00:19
TheEvilPhoenixdecent VPSes i've seen are around, what $20 - $30 a month?00:19
TheEvilPhoenixfor reliable00:19
qman__yeah00:19
pythonirc101TheEvilPhoenix: how much do you pay per month to put that dell in colocation?00:19
TheEvilPhoenixpythonirc101:  you mean how much DID I pay00:20
qman__linux VPSes also tend to cost a lot less than windows ones00:21
TheEvilPhoenixit shifted between locations over 2 years00:21
TheEvilPhoenixbut first place was $450/month00:21
qman__some places offer the same pricing for both, but that's before you factor in 20 gigs of hard drive space wasted on windows itself00:21
TheEvilPhoenixsecond was $49.99/month with horrid uptime reliability00:21
TheEvilPhoenixfinally said "Screw this", and cancelled the colo last week00:21
pythonirc101TheEvilPhoenix: what did you do after that?00:21
TheEvilPhoenixthe server is now en route to my nice, static ip, business class internet hookup :P00:22
qman__yeah00:22
TheEvilPhoenixpythonirc101:  i'm waiting on the server to arrive, but its going onto my nice business class internet00:22
pythonirc101TheEvilPhoenix: that costs me $150 for 10mbit line/month00:22
qman__in some cases it's actually cheaper to just buy a cable line and find someone who will let you store it there00:22
TheEvilPhoenixpythonirc101:  well i have an advantage...00:22
TheEvilPhoenixpythonirc101:  i dont run the business class internet00:22
TheEvilPhoenixer00:22
TheEvilPhoenixenterprise class, even00:23
pythonirc101TheEvilPhoenix: Thats cool00:23
TheEvilPhoenixone of the companies i work with does00:23
TheEvilPhoenixand they are allowing me to set the server up there00:23
TheEvilPhoenixfree of charge00:23
TheEvilPhoenix(partly because they ALREADY pay me flat-fees monthly for being on-call for when their servers explode)00:23
qman__yeah00:24
qman__the actual cheapest way to run a server is to know people00:24
TheEvilPhoenixmhm00:24
qman__but the cheapest way that you can measure in dollars is VPS00:24
TheEvilPhoenixmhm00:25
pythonirc101hmmm00:25
pythonirc101I need to find someone i know who has a good internet connection and is willing to let me colocate00:25
pythonirc101how does one buy fiber connections? They probably are very expensive?00:26
pythonirc101I know that there is a dead server right outside my building00:26
qman__another reason the cost is so high for colocation00:26
qman__if you're not running the latest greatest gear, you're also wasting a lot of electricity00:27
pythonirc101qman__: i dont care about electricity for now...only one machine00:27
qman__it's just economy of scale on so many levels00:27
pythonirc101I just want to buy a good machine and put it in a good place00:27
qman__but why, exactly, do you want to do that00:27
pythonirc101or buy a good ethernet connection to my building...i somehow think that will be harder to do than to colocate00:28
qman__why is a VPS not good enough, and more accurately, why are 20 VPSes not as good?00:28
qman__because that's about the cost difference00:28
pythonirc101qman__: how much would a vps cost me?00:28
pythonirc101will they give me the latest and greatest machine with SSDs on them for the right price?00:28
qman__bottom end from reputable companies is $5/mo00:28
qman__they go up from there00:28
pythonirc101I run web apps, not just web servers00:28
qman__then you probably want a dedicated server00:29
qman__you can get quad core machines with plenty of RAM and disk space for $100/mo00:29
pythonirc101qman__: is there a vps provider that will let me be root on ubuntu and give me a good machine?00:29
qman__all of them, pretty much00:29
pythonirc101any pointers?00:30
qman__don't look below the $100 mark for a dedicated server00:30
pythonirc101http://www.vpsguides.com/vps-hosting-comparison/00:30
qman__there are some cheaper than that but they're best avoided00:30
qman__for a VPS, if you care about performance, aim $20/mo and up00:30
pythonirc10130GB disk space on most, not an option...at leave 4TB or more disk space is what i need...and that should cost $160?00:31
qman__if you need that much space you'll have to pay more00:31
qman__but it's not unattainable in the dedicated server space00:31
pythonirc1012x2TB drives = $200 at most today00:32
pythonirc10130GB disk space is a joke...00:32
qman__you're not looking at all the angles00:32
qman__to keep the price down users share hardware, that's how a VPS works00:32
qman__it makes the most of the resources, and to do that, they have to limit disk space to allow for as many VPSes as the server can reasonably handle at once00:33
qman__that's why more space costs more money00:33
pythonirc101i see00:33
qman__a VPS isn't the best choice if you have such a large data requirement, look at dedicated servers instead00:33
pythonirc101qman__: or perhaps colocation00:34
qman__it's not likely you'll be able to colocate cheaper than a dedicated server, even with your requirements00:34
qman__unless you don't need datacenter quality accomodations and can stick it in someone's house with a comcast line00:34
qman__and just to give you a sense of the market00:36
qman__4TB is _huge_ for a web server00:36
pythonirc101hmmm00:37
qman__nobody's going to have a 4TB 'plan', you'll have to shop with extra disk addons00:37
pythonirc101i do need a colocation00:37
qman__fair enough, but it's going to be expensive, no two ways around it00:38
pythonirc101hmmm00:38
qman__I assume that by having 4TB of data, you actually want to serve that data at a pretty high rate00:38
qman__and the $500/mo rate I mentioned earlier is for 1Mbit/s averaged00:38
pythonirc101unless i open up a colocation center myself and share the network bandwidth...the only expensive part is network...00:38
pythonirc101And i know there is dead fiber in front of my building00:39
pythonirc101its just a matter of if i can lease it...00:39
qman__dead fiber is usually dead for political reasons00:39
qman__not likely you'll be able to use it00:39
pythonirc101you are probably right00:39
pythonirc101the company owns it and wants to sit on it...00:39
pythonirc101no clue why00:40
pythonirc101is verizon fios reliable enough to run a server on it?00:40
qman__that depends entirely on what kind of reliability you demand00:41
qman__it's roughly the same as business class cable00:41
qman__it's not measured in nines00:41
pythonirc101hmmm00:42
pythonirc101verizon is promising $100 for 25Mbps/up/down00:43
pythonirc101http://smallbusiness.verizon.com/products/internet/fios/overview.aspx#plans00:43

T3CHKOMMIEhey guys, i need some advice on a server setup. ive got an old P4 with HT and 3 gb of ram im thinking of putting server 10.04 lts on it and serving up a drupal site as well as hosting a minecraft server. i only have a 40 gb hdd and im trying really hard to make it as redundant as possible I was first thinking about seting up virtualbox and just doing periodic back ups of the vdi but i didnt want to waste more resources. s01:58
T3CHKOMMIEo i am not thinking of just installing ubuntu straight up. does anyone have any good ideas on how to keep a catastrophy to a minimum and how to quickly recover once this old dell finally eats it?01:58
TheEvilPhoenixT3CHKOMMIE:  not running minecraft alongside anything else is a good start02:02
TheEvilPhoenixT3CHKOMMIE:  minecraft servers require MINIMUM 2GB to run.02:03
TheEvilPhoenixto run effectively*02:03
T3CHKOMMIETheEvilPhoenix, i have a XBMC install running all this crap right now and the mini ITX board can only support 2 gb... so im going to have to move to the P4 i was just wondering if anyone new of a way for me to keep this thing backed up up-to-the-day so that if... i mean... WHEN it crashes my site and other services will only be down for a short time... any tricks?02:04
T3CHKOMMIEideally i wanted to be running all this stuff on a NICE esxi box... but alas, i dont have the $$$ for that kinda setup just yet.02:04

magicblaze007I've a machine at home and would like to run apache from here (dynamic ip). Does anyone know to point my dns to this apache box? I guess i'll have to do port forwarding...I use zoneedit for dns for now.16:10

hallynSpamapS: so is there any way that static-network-up will get SRUd?16:18
SpamapShallyn: the event, maybe, the rc-sysinit change, never.16:19
hallynthe event would be ok, then libvirt could start on that16:19
hallynbc start on stopped networking is insufficient16:20
hallynSpamapS: was all the work for static-network-up contained within the ifupdown package?16:22
=== al-maisan is now known as almaisan-away
Davieyjamespage: grazino16:24
SpamapShallyn: no, upstart has the failsafe and rc-sysinit changes16:27
SpamapShallyn: the event though, yes, is self contained in ifupdown16:27
SpamapSjamespage: you rang?16:28
jamespageSpamapS: hey - yes16:28
jamespagealthough I may have answered by question since16:28
jamespageI wanted to check what testing you did of the eucalyptus upload yesterday16:29
jamespageI've been testing today and its distinctly unhappy16:29
hallynSpamapS: is the failsafe change to work around the rc-sysinit change?  I.e. if we don't have rc-sysinit change but we have static-net-up we don't need the failsafe, right?16:29
jamespageits not your upload BTW16:30
hallynSpamapS: ok, full disclosure :)  are you already planning on doing the static-net-up fix for lucid 10.04.4 for bug 580319 ?16:34

smoser(regarding "SpamapS: but we missed freeze.  not sure we can sneak something like this in for o at all any more?")17:06
jamespageDaviey: I subscribed graziano to the bug report and requested some help17:07
hallynsmoser: which one is that in referecne to?17:10
hallynsmoser: the oneiric one is just a cleanup - no misbehavior without it17:11
hallynsmoser: the other stuff is only for natty and earlier17:11
smoseroh. i thought you were saying for oneiric.17:11
smoserwe've long missed "freeze" for natty17:11
smoseri think that was about 6 months ago17:11
* RoAkSoAx will be back in an hour17:14
hallynsmoser: i must have missed that email17:15
hallynj/k17:15
warzauwynnSpamapS: weird, changing the TTY didn't help… whenever i boot up, regardless of which TTY is selected it always starts with a blank window.  I have to switch away and back to get any text to display on that tty.  any ideas?17:15
hallynsmoser: do you think that this part;17:16
hallyn  * invoke dhclient3 with '-1', meaning it should exit failure if it does17:16
hallyn    not receive a response in 60 seconds. (LP: #838968)17:16
SpamapSwarzauwynn: no, that is weird. What release?17:16
hallynshould be part of an SRU for static-network-up?17:16
warzauwynnit's 11.04, been upgraded through at least one version of 10, maybe starting at 9.17:17
warzauwynnit's been a problem for a while and i've always just dealt with it…17:17
warzauwynnnot like it's a huge problem either, just kinda odd.17:17
smoserhallyn, i would think you should not do that.17:18
hallynsmoser: ok17:18
SpamapSyeah thats not going to work out17:18
SpamapSToo much behavior change.17:18
smoserand unfortunately, that, static-network-up is not really going to work17:18
hallynsmoser: why?17:18
smosers/, that,/without that/17:18
smoserbecause thats what makes static-network-up wait for all network devices to be up17:19
smoserpreviously ifup did not wait17:19
smoserit just waited for 60 seconds and then went on with life, pretending it did it17:19
hallynwell,17:19
hallynas far as libvirt is concerned i think that's fine17:19
smoseri think introducing static-network-up without that is just asking for issues.17:19
hallynif your networking hasn't come up after 60 seconds, then you have probelms anyway17:19
hallynright now autostart VMs fail.  Making it so only ppl with bad setups have problems seems an improvement to me.17:20
smosermaybe.17:23
smosereven probably17:24
hallynsmoser: i'm going to try out lp:~serge-hallyn/ubuntu/natty/ifupdown/static-net-up17:26
i0nanyone know/have of a apache2.2.22 package?17:36
SpamapSsmoser: what hallyn is saying makes sense. Waiting 60 seconds for something to happen might be better in the general case.17:41
SpamapSThat said..17:41
SpamapS11.10 is out in a month..17:42
SpamapS12.04 out in 7 months..17:42
SpamapSThere are workarounds to the issues..17:42
smoserdoes lucid have this problem ?17:42
SpamapSyes17:42
SpamapS9.10 introduced it17:42
smoserits valid to find *a* fix for 10.0417:42
SpamapSwhen we stopped waiting for all interfaces to be up on boot17:42
smoser11.10 is 'meh'17:42
smoserlts and libvirt not working is embarrasing17:43
SpamapSWay more than libvirt is broken17:43
SpamapS*anything* that binds to an interface17:43
SpamapSsmoser: what bug did I say we missed freeze on?17:48
smoseryou didnt.17:48
smoserhallyn, did17:49
SpamapSOh ok17:49
hallynSpamapS: hm, 'start: Unknown parameter: JOB17:55
SpamapShallyn: who when?17:56
hallynSpamapS: when reinstalling ifupdown on natty17:58
hallynfrom network-interface-security.conf17:58
SpamapShallyn: sorry I'm not sure what that means.. have to step away for a few minutes.. will ping when I return17:59
hallynok18:00
keeshallyn: that would imply upstart has regressed?18:03
hallynkees: i don't know, i need to reproduce and make sure i'm not responsible18:03
keesthe use of JOB stuff in network-interface-security.conf is from me, but it really should work fine in natty18:05
keeshallyn: is it disk corruption? what does the file look like? JOB is only part of the "instance" line ..18:05
hallynno, it's not me18:09
hallynapt-get install --reinstall ifupdown in natty gives that line18:09
hallynkees: yes, it doesn't do it in oneiric, so it must be an upstart difference18:10
keeshallyn: can you pastebin your network-interface-security.conf file somewhere? it works for me in natty18:15
keeswell, it works for everyone but you in natty. ;)18:15
hallynkees: apt-get install --reinstall ifupdown didn't do it for you?18:16

SpamapSscponly - Restricts the commands available to scp- and sftp-users22:53
SpamapSWild_: ^^22:53
Wild_I have no clue how to set that up22:54
Wild_I just have to use a free host I guess :/22:54
SpamapSWild_: well it does have a manual.22:56
SpamapSWild_: the steps largely involve "install it... create a user... chsh -s /usr/bin/scponly username"22:57
SpamapSWild_: an additional step may be to change the web server configuration so it reads its files from their home dir.22:57
