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 connection === sixstringsg|afk is now known as sixstringsg [01:25] Are we early enough in the cycle to request a newer version of a package to be pulled from Debian unstable? === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away === sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [08:30] hi [08:31] has anyone made any experiances with native zfs on linux that he'd like to share? :) [12:13] any recommendation for tools to monitor process usage statistics and export them to html etc? [12:27] rurufufuss: cactai ? [12:56] hello, I need some tips on installing to a iscsi volume [12:57] the ubuntu-server installer seems to support this, but it insists on autogenerating some random initiator name, instead of prompting me for one [12:58] this doesn't make sense, because the iscsi server expects a specific initiator name [12:59] otherwise it won't provide the volume allocated to me [13:09] drbobb: never tried that - what version, btw? [13:09] 11.10 [13:10] could you try with 10.04LTS? [13:10] no idea, really, I've never tried installing on iSCSI, but it might be worth a try [13:11] seems random initiator name is default in 10.04 too... [13:12] big fail [13:12] could you possibly "allow all" during ubuntu install and then restrict access later? seems others have done that [13:13] also, I'd file a bug on that one if I were you... [13:13] well I see a different way to handle this [13:14] I 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] since I'm actually setting up a virtualbox vm, I'll just use the virtualbox iscsi support [13:15] also saves me fooling around with pxeboot [13:15] demolition: mv `cat filename` newdir [13:16] or [13:16] for i in `cat filename`; do mv $i newdir; done [13:16] the latter may work better if the number of files is huge [13:17] demolition: though you'll have some trouble if the filenames contain spaces [13:18] yes, I have [13:22] I would use rsync, see the --files-from option [13:23] demolition: then start with adding quotes around each filename: perl -e 's/^/\"/; s/$/\"/;' -i filename [13:23] or do as drbobb suggested :P [13:23] drbobb: that won't move them, though [13:24] solved it [13:25] how? quotes? [13:25] RoyK: true. But it just leaves deleting the source files afterward:P [13:26] drbobb: then same problem with spaces :P [13:26] "while read -r line; do mv "$line" /path/to/destination/; done < filename" [13:26] ah [13:26] * demolition is feeling cheered up, processing >500 files by hand is a hell [14:50] who is updating /etc/motd? I tried editing, but lost my edit? [14:51] did you visit /etc/update-motd.d/ [16:54] <_johnny> hi, 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? [16:56] <_johnny> my 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 ;) === sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg === crass_ is now known as crass [17:37] whats the best way to find files in ubuntu? with minimum disk/ram/cpu usage? [17:37] generally i use locate -- anythin better? [17:48] pythonirc101: locate is usualy the best so long as the data is indexed, which is usually done nightly [17:48] pythonirc101: for finding files in realtime, find is the only one I know [17:52] I find locate is a huge waste of resoures [17:52] it's the first thing I uninstall on a new machine [17:54] thats why i asked [17:54] Any idea why 'do-release-upgrade' returns "No new release found" on 10.04.3? [17:54] if not locate -- then ? [17:55] MattJ: that is the latest [17:56] There hasn't been a new major release for 18 months? [17:57] MattJ: thats the server LTS version [17:58] Thats the latest i think [17:58] I don't want LTS though [17:58] Even 'do-release-upgrade -d' says there is no release [17:59] MattJ: is the mirror you are using up-to-date? [18:00] I should hope so, it's gb.archive.ubuntu.com [18:00] and 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] I think I have an idea... bad network connection [18:00] I just tried -d again, and it started, then failed with an error [18:01] Right, yes, -d is working now (without -d still insists there's nothing new) [18:01] I suspected an LTS-only option, but I can't find it anywhere [18:02] you have to edit the config to change that [18:02] Which one? [18:03] one in /etc [18:03] My 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 ssh [18:03] I'm wondering what key combinations will let me do something without a monitor [18:03] or knowing where I am [18:03] File /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades [18:04] patdk-lap, magic, works... thanks :) [18:04] SJr: you're lucky it boots at all ;) [18:05] I can't get signal out of any of the ports [18:05] not really this is annoying, I have no idea why there isn't a simple way to have ssh start up almost asap [18:05] this is always so annoying to deal with. [18:05] most BIOS implementations will halt booting if they find no graphics card... :-( [18:06] I'm not even sure why it can't find the video card but who knows [18:06] this is the second video card that's died in this machine in 2 years I think [18:06] and more importantly I do more with my server that want it to respond to pings [18:06] SJr, pings are handled by the kernel, not a running application... so it doesn't mean anything has started yet (including sshd) [18:06] maybe something wrong with the monitor or kvm switch attached? [18:07] no kvm switch, and no the monitors are fine, I'm seeing what you type on them [18:07] I reseated the video card in another port [18:08] maybe it could even be some remote access thing in the network card itself that responds to ping? [18:08] Yes, that's also possible in some cards [18:08] I highly doubt that, by server I mean an expensive desktop motherboard :) [18:09] SJr: I meant something wrong electrically that causes graphics cards to die soon [18:09] SJr, yeah, I gathered... real servers don't have video cards to begin with :) [18:09] SJr: intel "Pro" desktop boards have something like that [18:09] SJr, real servers also typically have a serial port that links direct into a terminal for problems like this [18:10] yeah I wonder if I should go find a real server on the next upgrade, but this mother board is so cool [18:11] SJr: if the video card is broken, it's very likely that a desktop BIOS will refuse to boot at all [18:11] yeah I'm not sure it does make some stupid beeping sound [18:11] eh [18:12] when I turn it on [18:12] but I'm 99% positive that it's linux responding to the pings or else how would it know it's IP address [18:12] try to find a beep reference for your motherboard/BIOS ;) [18:12] If it's doing a scan of the disks [18:13] CTRL+C will stop that right [18:13] and if it's at prompting for root it'll be asking for CTRL+D then the password? [18:14] wtf? [18:14] well the system finally rebooted === SJrX is now known as SJr [18:15] Anyway I guess the question to address is [18:16] what was my system doing [18:16] /var/log/syslog [18:17] I don't see any references to drive scans === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away === Corey_ is now known as Corey [19:02] odd I can no longer mount one of my drives, I wonder if that's why it stalled on boot. [19:11] Hi 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] http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/release/ === sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg [19:18] toddnine, it's pretty easy [19:18] the ones that say ebs, or ebs backed [19:18] the ones that stay instance, aren't [19:19] patdk-lap: At first glance you're correct, but look at the us-east-1 region [19:19] the one labeled instance is actually the same instance as the ebs [19:19] I just started up 12 of them and they're all ebs backed [19:20] It seems to just be an error with the page, for instance the us-west-2 region has 2 separate instances [19:20] ah, someone duplicated the id's [19:22] patdk-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. [19:24] The text file looks correct. http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/release/published-ec2-release.txt.orig [19:30] patdk-lap: Any ideas where I should report this? [19:36] nope [19:36] file a bug on launchpad [19:45] Hi guys [19:46] Looking for a paid assistance, Where is the best place?

[20:05] its just small ,need to install SSL on Ubuntu LAMP Stack [20:05] Cyprus [20:05] ok [20:05] they don't even know what is Linux [20:07] there's probably linux geeks hiding in the woods there as well [20:08] anyway - setting up SSL for apache is doable even without help [20:08] look for the ones with long beard [20:08] :P [20:08] good evening.
