savidIs anyone here familiar with puppet?  Do you know if there's a ppa available for puppet 2.x?00:02
grapeI think puppet has their own repository you can add. not sure about a ppa.00:03
grapesavid: you can also just install the gem00:04
savidgrape,  I tried installing gem,  it doesn't set up anything (config files,  /usr/local/bin symlinks, init scripts)00:05
grapeAh, ok. Best I could suggest is to try searching launchpad00:06
grapeCan anyone tell me what the standard way of installing UbuntuCloud in 11.10 is going to be? Will it be an option on the Ubuntu Server Edition boot menu?00:11
twb`So: who's sick of rsnapshot?00:59
twb`Re. the vsftpd vs. lxc cgroup bitch-fight in lucid, I notice the kernel plumbers have asked for a proper fix for it within cgroups01:08
twb`"* fork throttling mechanism as basic cgroup functionality that is available in all hierarchies independent of the controllers used: This is important to implement race-free killing of all members of a cgroup, so that cgroup member processes cannot fork faster then a cgroup supervisor process could kill them. This needs to be recursive, so that not only a cgroup but all its subgroups are covered as well."01:08

TDJACRI updated to oneirc, and I've been having troubles with my mail server since.02:47
TDJACRI fixed the first two by installing missing packages02:47
TDJACRThe third isn't as easy02:47
TDJACRI try to send mail via SMTP02:47
TDJACRAnd I'm getting authentication errors02:47

twb`SASL isn't PAM02:50
TDJACRI know02:50
TDJACRIt's using the PAM authentication method02:50
twb`Ask etckeeper what configuration changes have occurred since the upgrade02:50
TDJACRetckeeper?02:51
twb`It version-controls your /etc dir, so you can answer such questions.02:51
TDJACRWhoops02:51
TDJACROh02:51
twb`Of course, I'm assuming you thought to install it BEFORE the upgrade02:51
TDJACRI declined any changes to config files during the upgrade02:51
TDJACRI hadn't heard about it02:51
twb`TDJACR: did you bother to understand the changes, or did you just click "no" every time?02:52
TDJACRtwb`: I did bother to understand them, I diffed most of them02:52
TDJACRAnd edited the ones with potential issue02:53

bikcmpis there a utility to figure out how fast the network traffic is flying on a server? (as in, 2 mbps down, 1 mbps up)05:21

bikcmphaha05:28
bikcmpgw?05:28
twb`gw would be the host you're testing against05:28
bikcmp-p is port, i'm assuming. i want total traffic05:28
twb`bikcmp: then stop all other traffic05:28
bikcmphm.05:28
twb`If you want to measure the actual traffic, rather than manufacturing a flow and measuring its overall speed, you could look at something like ifconfig's RX and TX lines05:30
twb`Obviously diff them over time, similar to the proof for differential calculus05:31
bikcmpyeah05:31
bikcmpi was thinking about writing a script to do that05:31
twb`There should be a file in /proc somewhere that has the TX and RX as raw fields, so you don't need to parse it out.05:31
twb`Probably someone has already solved that05:31

TakyojiSo how would someone connect this with just a few SATA harddrives directly? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816115100 xP18:27
TakyojiBeing that it has two SAS connectors, which I'm unfamiliar with18:28
patdk-wkwith sff-8087 to sata breakout cables18:29
patdk-wkthat isn't an sas connector18:29
patdk-wkthat is a quad sas/sata connector18:29
patdk-wkhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1681611609718:30
Takyojiahh; as for price, would that be sane for just a 2-4 disk RAID 1?18:31
patdk-wkdepends18:32
patdk-wkhighpoint hasn't had a good history if their cards working with bios's very nicely18:33
Takyojiany personal brand recommendations?18:33
patdk-wkthese days, I've been on lsi18:33
patdk-wkbut I normally always get battery backed raid cards18:33
patdk-wka 4port lsi is like $180 I think on there18:34
patdk-wkalmost every one uses lsi, intel, supermicro, ibm, hp, ...18:35
patdk-wkthey are all just rebranded18:35
Takyojiwell, isn't it moreso the ICs produced by LSI and assembled by Intel, IBM, and so on? :P18:36
patdk-wkexactly how much customization can one do and still have a working card?18:37
patdk-wkin the case of ibm, disable the raid5 support in firmware18:38
patdk-wkbut the real issue is, lsi won't help you if you don't have a real lsi card18:38
patdk-wkand lsi is normally good about support18:38
TakyojiGah, it's inconvenient how NewEgg just has an asston of obscure brands for controllers and bays18:53
Takyojialso, there are backplanes with controllers, yes? Not just FakeRAID or anything?18:54
RoyKTakyoji: software raid is usually faster anyway :P18:55
Takyojiin what way? :P18:57
TakyojiAre the controllers usually even a bottleneck sometimes, or?18:57
RoyKthe little processor on the board is generally slower than the one you have as your cpu18:58
RoyKso as long as you have sufficient bandwidth between disk and cpu and memory, software raid is likely to be better18:58
RoyKwith SATA ports on PCIex, that shouldn't be an issue18:59
RoyKalso, software raid is usually far more flexible than those controller-based RAID systems unless they are rather expensive19:00
TakyojiSo then in what case would a controller be sufficient over software RAID?19:02
RoyKany sata controller will do19:02
Takyojior hardware RAID I should say19:02
RoyKTakyoji: why hardware raid?19:02
TakyojiSo that it's transparent from the kernel?19:03
RoyKwhat is the benefit in that?19:03
RoyKsoftware raid is faster and easier to troubleshoot once the shit hits the fan19:03
RoyKand more flexible19:03
dkni've also had software raid work on multiple machines by just moving the disks between them in the event of a motherboard, or controller failure19:04
RoyKwith hardware raid, you'll need the same raid board if you need to move the drives - sometimes the same firmware version19:05
RoyKand even if the board says LSI something, it could be anything - old 3ware or some other stuff19:05
dknparticularly troublesome if you use the fake raid built into the motherboard.... and then your 3yr old motherboard bites the dust....19:06
dknbeem there....19:06
dknsoftware raid from here on out unless you're running nodes and you can afford to have then entire machine down or service19:06
RoyKmost cheap NAS things use linux software raid19:06
* dkn is full of typo's today19:07
* RoyK uses ZFS for important stuff19:07
dknwell some of the hardware raid stuff is really well integrated with the chasis so you get the nice red light next to the failed drive so the datacenter guys can swap it out right away without needing access to the system... but that might be a little bigger scope then some of us here...19:08
RoyKdkn: there are tools that can do that for even software raid/zfs solutions19:09
RoyKmost controllers come with such tools19:09
RoyKand then, when, not if, the shit hits the fan, you can easily reassembly the RAID on another box, with other controllers etc19:10
dkni don't know if my motherboard came with the cable to attach to the backplane of the hot swap bays though.... i'd be interested in getting it working if you knew how to pass them message from mdadm to the supermicro LSI chip if i had the port =19:11
RoyKdkn: sas2ircu19:12
RoyKdkn: that works for the SAS6 controllers, such as 92xx19:13
RoyKor SAS2, perhaps, 6Gbps SAS19:13
dknroyk: thank's i'll give it a go later on :)19:13
RoyKmdadm won't flash automatically, but a small shell script might do :P19:14
RoyKdkn: using those with openindiana for some high-volume servers19:14
RobinBAwesomei'm trying to make an automated server install cd, and the installer can't see my preseed. i've got preseed.cfg at the top level of the cd and i'm trying to get it using preseed/url=file:///cdrom/preseed.cfg.19:16
RobinBAwesomedoes anybody know what it should be?19:17
RobinBAwesomeso far the other stuff that doesn't work is url=file:///preseed.cfg, url=file:preseed.cfg, url=file:///cdrom/./preseed.cfg, file=/cdrom/preseed.cfg, and file=preseed.cfg19:18

TakyojiHow do you check for harddrive failures in a software RAID (using mdadm) then?19:29
RoyKsmartctl?19:30
koolhead11lynxman: around :P19:34
koolhead11i dont see much of difference in nova-manage commands :D19:34
RoyKTakyoji: most RAID controllers don't check data integrity - they just rely on the harddisk's CRC, meaning if the disk says it's an error, they mark it an error. The only filesystems doing actual data checks are (AFAIK) ZFS and btrfs. the former only works on solaris and BSD and under FUSE on linux, the latter isn't stable yet19:35
Takyojiahh19:41
Takyojibut what I mean is for the whole entire drive failing19:41
uvirtbotNew bug: #871966 in cloud-init (main) "FQDN written to /etc/hosts causes problems for clustering systems" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/87196619:41
Takyojiis there a way to write a script to just occasionally check?19:41
TakyojiOr is it just a matter of trying to read a file, and if there's an IO error, the harddrive has failed? :P19:42
RoyKTakyoji: if a drive fails, md will see that quite easily19:45
RoyKso if you have a spare, that will be set into service19:45
RoyKif not, well, no harm done unless you find bad data elsewhere19:45
TakyojiSo in software RAID, if there's an error on one of them (but not complete failure at all); it wouldn't be able to autocorrect it, or move it to a different sector, or? (if using EXT3 or EXT4)19:46
RoyKTakyoji: I use zfs on openindiana for important stuff19:46
RoyKit's not related to the filesystem on top19:47
RoyKmd will find the data if it's available19:47
RoyKand reconstruct it from parity if a sector goes bad19:48
RoyKTakyoji: generally, software raid is like hardware raid - the only difference is that the software is running on linux and not on some chip19:50
RoyK"hardware" raid is just software raid offloaded to another cpu19:50
RoyKsome of the expensive boards have hardware accellerators for that, but I somewhat doubt that makes a big difference19:51
RoyKit's just XOR after all19:51
Takyojiahh19:53
Takyojialso, is this really the form factor of 2 CD-ROM drives? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1681799407519:53
Takyoji5.25"19:54
RoyKI have something like that19:54
RoyKworks well19:54
RoyKnot that model, but something from Lian Li19:54
RoyKwithout hotswap, though19:55
RoyKkeep in mind that the controller and driver must support hotswap for it to be usable19:55
Takyojiahh19:55
Takyojibut anyway, I measured  5.75" x 3.5" on my system, which doesn't seem to match the proportions specified19:55
Takyojiunless if it's just the faceplate that is that size.19:56
RoyK5.25"19:56
RoyKthat's the size of a CDROM19:56
RoyKor a normal DVD drive19:57
Takyojialright19:57
cceFor the purposes of a virtual appliance, I'm wondering how small the "minimal" unbuntu server distribution is, using vmbuilder it seems to be making 350MB images.  Is there a way to get a much smaller one?19:59
RoyKTakyoji: if you don't need the flexibility of md, as in adding drives to an existing raid5 to expand it, I'd suggest you should try zfs on openindiana or fbsd - it's far better when it comes to data safety19:59
RoyKcce: with current USB sticks at 16GB, is it really necessary to make it that small?20:00
cceRoyK: well, if you're downloading your app as an appliance?20:00
RoyKI get your point20:00
cce350M is ~145M compressed, that's a good 10 min download20:00
RoyKcce: perhaps try debian - it's a bit slimmer20:00
RoyKubuntu includes a bunch of stuff you normally don't need20:01
* cce can get FreeBSD down to 30-40M, but it's increasingly difficult to fight linux dominance 20:01
RoyKdid you try debian?20:02
ccenot yet... linux noob I am20:02
RoyKit should be down to 100 megs on a standard install20:02
cceRoyK does it use libvirt and stuff?20:02
cceRoyK: that's useful20:02
cceThank you.20:02
RoyKubuntu came from the land of debian, so it's the same tools, same packaging system etc20:03
TakyojiIt's just RAID 1. :P20:04
Takyoji3 harddrives20:04
RoyKwhat is?20:04
Takyojiof what we'll have.20:04
RoyKthree-side mirrors?20:05
Takyojiyes20:05
RoyKis that what you use?20:05
Takyojia 3-disk RAID 120:06
RoyKthen what's the problem?20:06
Takyojijust referring to "as in adding drives to an existing raid5"20:07
RoyKTakyoji: md supports that20:07
RoyKor converting between raid5 and raid620:07
RoyKlinux md is far more than just mirrors20:07
RoyKlvm only supports mirrors20:07
RoyKbut that's another thing20:08
RoyKif you only need mirroring, anything will do20:08
RoyKmd, lvs, zfs, even btrfs can do that20:09
SpamapSLVM has striping too20:10
Takyojiand this will have the OS install on it and everything20:11
Takyojias an aside20:11
Omni_Lynkwhat would be a good small gui for Ubuntu Server? Something that will not be used much past initial setup?20:11
RoyKTakyoji: last I checked, you can't boot from RAID[56]20:11
TakyojiI know mdadm is in the alternate installer for Ubuntu; but not sure if there's lvm, zfs, etc20:11
RoyKSpamapS: striping doesn't count20:11
TakyojiAs stated, RAID 1. :P20:12
RoyKas for raid-1, md is fine, so is lvs20:12
TakyojiI just don't know how I'd go at setting up anything other than mdadm20:12
RoyKwell, mdadm is safe20:13
RoyKand very stable20:13
TakyojiOr would it be as simple as: installing to one harddrive, then in the OS environment to install and setup the RAID?20:13
RoyKjust setup a three-drive mirror20:13
RoyKthe installer will install grub on all of them and it should be safe as heaven20:14
TakyojiSo just go with mdadm then? :P20:14
RoyKTakyoji: yes20:14
Takyojialright20:14
RoyKmdadm has been stable for what, 10 years? 15?20:15
Omni_Lynkwhat would be a good small gui for Ubuntu Server? Something that will not be used much past initial setup?20:19
RoyKapt-get install ubuntu-desktop :P20:20
RoyKOmni_Lynk: I'd suggest you learn administrating by the commandline, though20:20
Omni_Lynki'm planning on it, however i'm under the gun and i do not know all of the commands yet to actually swim in the Command Line.  best i could do is stay aflot for 5 minutes before drowning.20:21
RoyKOmni_Lynk: there are few tools available on the gui - the gui is meant for users, not admins20:22
RoyKOmni_Lynk: do it the hard way :P20:23

Davieyhey lynxman22:37
koolhead17Daviey: am sure i will have it done tomorrow for sure :D22:37
koolhead17just need to understand the noauth thing and what old change has to be done in paste.ini thing22:37
Davieykoolhead17: well i need to go to sleep, but i'd love to hear how you got on.22:38
lynxmanDaviey: sleep tight and see you tomorrow ;)22:38
Davieyyou don't want noauth.. that really does mean NO AUTH :)22:38
Davieylynxman: o/22:38
koolhead17Daviey: i troubled vishy or a while and he replied with some suggestion22:38
koolhead17:D22:38
utlemmingDaviey: when you get up, I tracked down the APT thing too...its a meta problem affecting ubuntu-server22:38
koolhead17*for22:39
Davieykoolhead17: oh rocking, fancy forwarding that - i'd love to read it22:39
Davieyutlemming: oh?22:39
utlemmingDaviey: you can read the bug, but the fix is to mark "update-notifier-common" into the server tasks22:39
utlemmingDaviey: the change happened between Lucid and Natty, so Natty and Oneiric are both affected22:39
koolhead17Daviey: tomorrow 1st thing will share it with you. i need to understand what he meant by change to older configuration in paste.ini22:40
Davieyutlemming: smoser was worried about introducing that on m1.tiny...22:40
Davieykoolhead17: thanks22:40
koolhead17if i crack this i think i can get dashboard working with all powers!! :D22:40
sorenutlemming: "the APT thing"?22:40
utlemmingDaviey: I have some reservations about that too22:40
utlemmingsoren: yup22:40
Davieyutlemming: wait, Lucid was smoser's first release, right?22:40
sorenDaviey: No.22:41
utlemmingDaviey: not sure22:41

Davieyie, you can't see pending updates - and the apt-cache is always stale.22:41
Davieysoren: So this is something we can blame on smoser?22:43
sorenDaviey: We can blame lots of stuff on smoser. I don't know what we're talking about right now, though.22:43
sorenDaviey: Oh, bug 870121?22:43
uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 870121 in ubuntu "APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists not set in cloud images" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/87012122:43
utlemmingsoren: that's the bug we're talking about22:44
* Daviey takes comfort in attributing the blame to smoser22:44
=== kentb is now known as kentb-afk
sorenutlemming: Do we know how it gets set on regular installs?22:46
Davieysoren: keep up at the back22:46
Daviey23:39 < utlemming> Daviey: you can read the bug, but the fix is to mark "update-notifier-common" into the server tasks22:47
Davieywhich implies that is done on the desktop22:47
sorenAh.22:48
utlemmingDaviey, soren: the short story is that "ubuntu-desktop" pulls in "update-notifier-common" as a depedency. The server task list does not include update-notifier.22:48
sorenSo..22:48
sorenThe bug says:22:48
utlemmingupdate-notifier-common provides the apt config that we want22:48
soren"In Desktop and Server ISO we set APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists:22:48
soren"22:48
sorenSo how/why does it happen on server installs?22:49
utlemmingsoren: I _installed_ a new minimial server on Friday and it did not have it22:49
sorenutlemming: Ah.22:49
utlemmingMy beta1 ISO install for server had it set22:49
sorenSo the bug lies.22:49
Davieysoren: I think my initial anlaysis was incorrect.22:49
sorenI agree with smoser. The cloud images should do what the server install does.22:49
Davieyand server is doing it wrong.22:50
sorenSo if the server isntall doesn't do this, I'd say the bug is invalid.22:50
sorenIn its current form, at least.22:50
Davieythe bug isn't invalid.22:50
sorenWe may want both server and cloud to have this enabled, but that's a different story.22:50
sorenOk.22:50
Davieyhaving an out of date caceh and not able to see pending updates (esp. with byobu enabled), isn't cool.22:51
sorenI either disagree or am missing something.22:51
Davieysoren: the thought you you disagreeing with me astounds me :)22:51
sorenDaviey: Yeah. Preposterous.22:54
Davieyit really comes down to target audiences.22:55
Daviey:)22:55
utlemmingDaviey: how hard is it to change the meta-data? I may not be the biggest fan of byubo, but showing no updates is a bad user experience and will result in bugs. I'm inclined to agree that this is a bug.22:55
Davieyutlemming: Changing it is easy, the concern is, rightly so, is will m1.tiny choke on this?22:56
utlemmingDaviey: I have concerns that it will affect the m1.tiny/t1.micros, but I also don't think that the t1.micros are usable for anything other than a glorified shell account.22:57
Davieyit's just and automated suod apt-get update... so should be ok... but very late.22:57
utlemmingDaviey: I have argued that we should limit support on them just because they are so resource constrained22:57
Davieywell it did take too much support to try and gtet java working on them.22:58
DavieySo i would back that claim, i think.22:58
sorenSorry, what? Are the m1.tiny or m1.micro sizes unable to apt-get update?!?22:59
utlemmingJava is not working on them yet22:59
utlemmingsoren: no, the concern is that having cronjobs could affect the performance of a t1.micro/m1.tiny.23:00
utlemmingsoren: the t1.micro is very starved and cronjobs and the like can push them into a hyper-visor enforced coma23:00
sorenutlemming: The overhead of being a cronjob should be miniscule.23:02
utlemmingsoren: at least with the t1.micro, the machine just drops off the face of the planet until the load characteristics match what Amazon wants.23:02
sorenutlemming: So it's really about the ability to run "apt-get update". Right?23:03

smwutlemming,  the micro does not drop off completely23:04
smwutlemming, it does go very slow though. When doing a large number of updates at once, it finishes slowly. But it is not too bad23:05
utlemmingsmw: I have to respectfully disagree. If you have a mostly idle micro, then occasional spikes are okay. If you one under sustained load, it will become unresponsive until the backlog clears. Try running LTP on a t1.micro and watch it become unusable for the next 21 hours.23:06
koolhead17nyt Daviey :D23:06
smwutlemming, 21 hours?!23:06
utlemmingsmw: yup23:06
smwutlemming, I have never had even close to that type of problems... what is LTP?23:06
utlemmingsmw: Linux Test Suite23:07
smwutlemming, but then again, the most computationally intensive thing I do on a micro is large updates or compiling23:07
utlemmingsmw: which fits the performance expectations for a t1.micro -- occasional spikes in CPU usage.23:08
smwutlemming, yeah23:08
utlemmingso the fear here is that a t1.micro performing near the baseline will get pushed over the top and then die23:08
smwutlemming, my company is not stingy and ups the instance type whenever we do anything with computation or we put something into prod23:08
utlemmingsmw: glad to hear :)23:09
utlemmingsmw: the t1.micro concerns me for a couple reasons. The first is that most people don't understand it and the second is that when it behaves like it is supposed to, they blame Ubuntu.23:11
utlemmingwith all said, I am not sure that turning the job on is a bad thing per se -- having updates available is a good thing on every other instance type -- but the perception is what bothers me23:12
smwutlemming, nice :-)23:12
smwutlemming, we don't get many people confused with a slow micro on ##aws23:12
dknin lvm..... a vg can span multiple pv, can lv span multiple vg?23:23
JasonnTohuw:23:27
TohuwHello. This will be better, so as not to further fill up #ubuntu. Anyway... you moved the lock file, and did it spawn another one?23:27
TohuwRun ls -a /var/lib/dpkg to find out.23:27
Jasonn.  ..  alternatives  available  available-old  cmethopt  diversions  diversions-old  format  info  lock  lock.OLD  parts  statoverride  statoverride-old  status  status-old  triggers  updates23:28
Jasonn 23:28
JasonnIt appears so :o23:28
Jasonnand I also dont want to restart the server :323:28
TohuwUnderstood. Try removing any processes employing the file: sudo fuser -cuk /var/lib/dpkg/lock23:30
TohuwThen try removing it23:30
Tohuwor moving it; either is fine. It's just a lock file and we can see your system is capable of using it.23:30
TohuwRuh roh?23:30
Tohuwdkn: no23:32
JasonnTohuw: well, you coulda given me a heads up23:32
Jasonn:323:33
dknkinda odd.. it's supposed to be this gloriously flexible system...23:33
TohuwJasonn: :\ your network connection died when you fuser'd the file, didn't it?23:33
dkni guess the vg does all the flexing..23:33
Tohuwdkn: Don't confuse flexibility with "uses the logic I expect it to use"23:33
dknlol23:34
TohuwJasonn: If so, that was an unforseen consequence. I'm sorry to hear that happend.23:34
Tohuwhrm. I'll be semi-around Jasonn, should you need additional assistance.23:38
JasonnTohuw: yeah, it fixed it, thanks :D - Actually, it killed most of my processes23:46
TohuwJasonn: eek. That may be because dpkg was dealing with multiple dependencies or touching a lot of areas to get mysql installed... dpkg follows instructions to stop services and what not, and you just told it to go get bent. Hopefully, you should be up and running now. You may want to run some checks though. man dpkg for information; it's important to learn about this.23:48
z3r0c0d3hi alll23:48

Tohuw!ask | z3r0c0d323:49
ubottuz3r0c0d3: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)23:49
z3r0c0d3i cant put it to work23:50
Tohuw!doesntwork | z3r0c0d323:50
ubottuz3r0c0d3: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.23:50

patdk-lapyou aren't giving any details23:52
z3r0c0d3sorry23:52
z3r0c0d3when i access from windows it ask me for a user name and password23:53
patdk-lapI mean, ive been running samba for a good 15years now, haven't had an issue23:53
Tohuwz3r0c0d3: "can't access it" is not enough information. What is the error? Where is the share? What version of Ubuntu Server/what version of SAMBA (run smbstatus). Do you have a login saved for the share (check gnome-keyring)?23:53
z3r0c0d3but from linux it says that cant retrive de server list23:53
TohuwAh. Now you're providing something. So, what happens if you type smb://yourserver/yoursharename?23:54
Tohuw(into nautilus)23:54
z3r0c0d3error to mount windows share23:55
patdk-lapit didn't ask for username/pass?23:55
z3r0c0d3error: failed to mount the windows share23:55
z3r0c0d3no23:55
z3r0c0d3didnt23:55
TohuwOk, from terminal on the Ubuntu client: smbclient -L servername23:57
patdk-lapmust be saved or you have guest access on23:57
patdk-lapit asks me atleast23:57
Tohuwpatdk-lap: there are other possibilities.23:58
patdk-lapya, I know, hundreds :)23:58
z3r0c0d3connection to server failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESFUL)23:59
TohuwHowever, I need to run. z3r0c0d3, I will be back in ~30 minutes, if no one has helped you by then.23:59
patdk-lapwhat version of samba is on the server?23:59
