blizzkidlo all, I'm running hostapd on Lucid. When I try to connect my clients (wpa2) it keeps looping over "authenticated", "associated", "radius starting accounting session", "wpa pairwise key handshake completed (rsn)", "disassociated", "deauthenticated" and clients never get a completed connection00:51

drbobbhello, I need some tips on installing to a iscsi volume12:56
drbobbthe ubuntu-server installer seems to support this, but it insists on autogenerating some random initiator name, instead of prompting me for one12:57
drbobbthis doesn't make sense, because the iscsi server expects a specific initiator name12:58
drbobbotherwise it won't provide the volume allocated to me12:59
RoyKdrbobb: never tried that - what version, btw?13:09
drbobb11.1013:09
RoyKcould you try with 10.04LTS?13:10
RoyKno idea, really, I've never tried installing on iSCSI, but it might be worth a try13:10
RoyKseems random initiator name is default in 10.04 too...13:11
drbobbbig fail13:12
RoyKcould you possibly "allow all" during ubuntu install and then restrict access later? seems others have done that13:12
RoyKalso, I'd file a bug on that one if I were you...13:13
drbobbwell I see a different way to handle this13:13
demolitionI have a "file", which contents filepath. Every line is like /home/user/dir/filename, except every filename is totally different. How do I batch process this to move every file listed in it to one dir? (with mv)13:14
drbobbsince I'm actually setting up a virtualbox vm, I'll just use the virtualbox iscsi support13:14
drbobbalso saves me fooling around with pxeboot13:15
RoyKdemolition: mv `cat filename` newdir13:15
RoyKor13:16
RoyKfor i in `cat filename`; do mv $i newdir; done13:16
RoyKthe latter may work better if the number of files is huge13:16
drbobbdemolition: though you'll have some trouble if the filenames contain spaces13:17
demolitionyes, I have13:18
drbobbI would use rsync, see the --files-from option13:22
RoyKdemolition: then start with adding quotes around each filename: perl -e 's/^/\"/; s/$/\"/;' -i filename13:23
RoyKor do as drbobb suggested :P13:23
RoyKdrbobb: that won't move them, though13:23
demolitionsolved it13:24
RoyKhow? quotes?13:25
drbobbRoyK: true. But it just leaves deleting the source files afterward:P13:25
RoyKdrbobb: then same problem with spaces :P13:26
demolition"while read -r line; do mv "$line" /path/to/destination/; done < filename"13:26
RoyKah13:26
* demolition is feeling cheered up, processing >500 files by hand is a hell13:26
pythonirc101who is updating /etc/motd? I tried editing, but lost my edit?14:50
patdk-lapdid you visit /etc/update-motd.d/14:51
_johnnyhi, i'm having trouble starting named (BIND). i've had a working setup for a while, so i'm not sure what has changed. when i start /usr/sbin/named it just exists right away (gdb reports exit code 1). -d 1..100 does not give any verbose output. any ideas?16:54
_johnnymy bad - i had checked system.log, but apparently i missed this line: named.conf had a syntax error. still, would've been nice if named bin had said that, but.. i should've watched the syslog more closely, d'oh ;)16:56

pythonirc101whats the best way to find files in ubuntu? with minimum disk/ram/cpu usage?17:37
pythonirc101generally i use locate -- anythin better?17:37
RoyKpythonirc101: locate is usualy the best so long as the data is indexed, which is usually done nightly17:48
RoyKpythonirc101: for finding files in realtime, find is the only one I know17:48
patdk-lapI find locate is a huge waste of resoures17:52
patdk-lapit's the first thing I uninstall on a new machine17:52
pythonirc101thats why i asked17:54
MattJAny idea why 'do-release-upgrade' returns "No new release found" on 10.04.3?17:54
pythonirc101if not locate -- then ?17:54
pythonirc101MattJ: that is the latest17:55
MattJThere hasn't been a new major release for 18 months?17:56
pythonirc101MattJ: thats the server LTS version17:57
pythonirc101Thats the latest i think17:58
MattJI don't want LTS though17:58
MattJEven 'do-release-upgrade -d' says there is no release17:58
JanCMattJ: is the mirror you are using up-to-date?17:59
MattJI should hope so, it's gb.archive.ubuntu.com18:00
JanCand IIRC there is a config setting that keeps you on LTS if it is set (although I'd expect '-d' should get around that?)18:00
MattJI think I have an idea... bad network connection18:00
MattJI just tried -d again, and it started, then failed with an error18:00
MattJRight, yes, -d is working now (without -d still insists there's nothing new)18:01
MattJI suspected an LTS-only option, but I can't find it anywhere18:01
patdk-lapyou have to edit the config to change that18:02
MattJWhich one?18:02
patdk-lapone in /etc18:03
SJrMy video card is dead in my server, I rebooted my machine (unknowingly), and now when it boots up I can ping it but can't ssh18:03
SJrI'm wondering what key combinations will let me do something without a monitor18:03
SJror knowing where I am18:03
patdk-lapFile /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades18:03
MattJpatdk-lap, magic, works... thanks :)18:04
JanCSJr: you're lucky it boots at all  ;)18:04
SJrI can't get signal out of any of the ports18:05
SJrnot really this is annoying, I have no idea why there isn't a simple way to have ssh start up almost asap18:05
SJrthis is always so annoying to deal with.18:05
JanCmost BIOS implementations will halt booting if they find no graphics card...  :-(18:05
SJrI'm not even sure why it can't find the video card but who knows18:06
SJrthis is the second video card that's died in this machine in 2 years I think18:06
SJrand more importantly I do more with my server that want it to respond to pings18:06
MattJSJr, pings are handled by the kernel, not a running application... so it doesn't mean anything has started yet (including sshd)18:06
JanCmaybe something wrong with the monitor or kvm switch attached?18:06
SJrno kvm switch, and no the monitors are fine, I'm seeing what you type on them18:07
SJrI reseated the video card in another port18:07
JanCmaybe it could even be some remote access thing in the network card itself that responds to ping?18:08
MattJYes, that's also possible in some cards18:08
SJrI highly doubt that, by server I mean an expensive desktop motherboard :)18:08
JanCSJr: I meant something wrong electrically that causes graphics cards to die soon18:09
MattJSJr, yeah, I gathered... real servers don't have video cards to begin with :)18:09
JanCSJr: intel "Pro" desktop boards have something like that18:09
MattJSJr, real servers also typically have a serial port that links direct into a terminal for problems like this18:09
SJryeah I wonder if I should go find a real server on the next upgrade, but this mother board is so cool18:10
JanCSJr: if the video card is broken, it's very likely that a desktop BIOS will refuse to boot at all18:11
SJryeah I'm not sure it does make some stupid beeping sound18:11
JanCeh18:11
SJrwhen I turn it on18:12
SJrbut I'm 99% positive that it's linux responding to the pings or else how would it know it's IP address18:12
JanCtry to find a beep reference for your motherboard/BIOS  ;)18:12
SJrIf it's doing a scan of the disks18:12
SJrCTRL+C will stop that right18:13
SJrand if it's at prompting for root it'll be asking for CTRL+D then the password?18:13
SJrwtf?18:14
SJrwell the system finally rebooted18:14

toddnineHi guys.  I'm trying to run a 10.10 instance image on aws.  I think the ami's linked here are incorrect.  The one's labeled as instance are actually EBS backed.  Who do I get in touch with to ask about this?19:11
toddninehttp://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/release/19:11
=== sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg
patdk-laptoddnine, it's pretty easy19:18
patdk-lapthe ones that say ebs, or ebs backed19:18
patdk-lapthe ones that stay instance, aren't19:18
toddninepatdk-lap: At first glance you're correct, but look at the us-east-1 region19:19
toddninethe one labeled instance is actually the same instance as the ebs19:19
toddnineI just started up 12 of them and they're all ebs backed19:19
toddnineIt seems to just be an error with the page, for instance the us-west-2 region has 2 separate instances19:20
patdk-lapah, someone duplicated the id's19:20
toddninepatdk-lap: Any ideas on how to search for them manually?  I'm trying to use the ec2 console, but it's not really very helpful, even if I prefix the search with "099720109477/".  There just doesn't appear to be a instance image available with the latest build.19:22
toddnineThe text file looks correct.  http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/release/published-ec2-release.txt.orig19:24
toddninepatdk-lap: Any ideas where I should report this?19:30
