[00:59] <smoser> m_3, do the SRU stuff.  ie, write justification and everything
[00:59] <smoser> and if you wanted, you could foward a debdiff to the debian bug that is there.
[01:01] <m_3> smoser: cool, thanks!
[01:02]  * m_3 looking up "SRUs for dummies"
[01:02] <smoser> m_3, ping me when you have justifcation done and I can do the upload to oneiric-proposed if there is no oneelse around.
[01:02] <smoser> i'm gonna mostly be out till budapest though so you might want to look for someone else.
[01:02] <smoser> good work on getting that fixed though
[01:02] <m_3> thanks, yeah it's been a ghost-town around here
[01:03] <m_3> I've got a ppa with it fixed for oneiric, so there's no particular hurry
[01:03] <m_3> have a great break man... see you in budapest
[01:08] <smoser> well, the archive is 100% broken for that package, so that is pretty bad.
[01:23]  * SpamapS will +1 it right into oneiric-proposed :)
[01:40] <PerfM> woooooooooooo
[01:40] <PerfM> I love ubuntu!
[01:50] <Zanzacar> Just curious if anyone could answer this for me. I can sftp into my server through the terminal and through filezilla. Through the terminal I transfer at 11mbps through filezilla I transfer at 8-9mbps.
[01:50] <Zanzacar> does anyone know why that would be?
[01:50] <qman__> probably a math error in one program or the other
[01:51] <Zanzacar> so one isnt actually slower then the other then?
[01:51] <qman__> not likely, they could also be negotiating different encryption sets, or filezilla could be measuring actual file throughput while the other program is measuring total connection throughput
[01:51] <qman__> lots of reasons those numbers can be different
[01:52] <Zanzacar> gotcha sounds good.
[01:52] <qman__> the only real way to measure would be to download the same large file and time it
[01:52] <PerfM> I do
[01:52] <PerfM> Zanzacar, glad we could help ^_^
[01:52] <Zanzacar> I am going to test it out and see if there is any differences
[01:53] <qman__> also, IIRC, filezilla displays the average over the whole connection
[01:54] <qman__> the other program may be measuring the current rate instead
[01:54] <Zanzacar> it is just sftp over the terminal
[01:55] <PerfM> pangolin, HI!
[01:55] <PerfM> pangolin, sorry for the ping!
[01:58] <m_3> smoser SpamapS: I think I have everything for an SRU on bug #854866
[01:59]  * m_3 sure hope that all works :)
[02:00] <smoser> m_3,  just copy your comment to a section in the description
[02:00] <smoser> other than that, loooks good.
[02:01] <m_3> smoser: smoser ok, did that
[02:02] <twb> Zanzacar: most likely case is one is measuring megabytes (1000) and one is measuring mibibytes (1024)
[02:02] <twb> Zanzacar: it could also be scp vs. sftp -- the former has slightly less overhead.
[02:10] <smoser> m_3, ok. i just uploaded to oneiric-proposed.
[02:10] <smoser> then, it needs an SRU admin (SpamapS or pitti) to approve it into -proposed
[02:10] <smoser> the one change from the oneiric is (as you stated) the version number.
[02:11] <smoser> 3.1.7-2ubuntu0.1 is what i used, which is < anything in precise
[02:11] <smoser> following the chart at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update%20the%20packaging
[02:15] <m_3> smoser: ok, thanks
[02:37] <smoser> :q
[03:00] <axisys> http://pastebin.com/RMpM2bdA <-- x2270 m2 sees only one disk.. any idea what I can do short from rebooting the server
[03:01] <axisys> tons of error like this http://pastebin.com/319gGafB for sdb
[03:32] <axisys> during boot I saw both disks
[03:33] <axisys> http://pastebin.com/25STEpin <-- from /var/log/dmesg
[03:33] <axisys> but now only one
[03:33] <axisys> they both are internal disk
[03:33] <axisys> i wonder if my co-worker broke sdb while attaching it to raid1
[03:34] <axisys> (parted) p
[03:34] <axisys> Error: /dev/sdb: unrecognised disk label
[03:36] <axisys> smartctl --all /dev/sdb -T permissive says
[03:36] <axisys> SMART Health Status: OK
[04:22] <axisys> rebooted the system
[04:23] <axisys> now I can see sdb
[09:24] <twister004> hi guys... how can I automate reverse ssh on my ubuntu server?... I need to connect to this box using reverse ssh.... can I use a script at bootup?.. I tried this but it doesn't work
[09:31] <Jeeves_> twister004: You can create some ssh keys
[09:31] <Jeeves_> and create an upstart script for it
[09:31] <twister004> Jeeves_: ahem... how do I do that :D
[09:36] <Jeeves_> twister004: ssh-keygen -t rsa on the box behind nat
[09:36] <Jeeves_> Don't enter a passphrase
[09:37] <Jeeves_> vi /etc/init/rssh.conf
[09:37] <twister004> Jeeves_... I did that... I want to know how I can automate this tunnel... how it can be auto-established upon reboot
[09:37] <Jeeves_> exec ssh -i $homedir/.ssh/id_rsa
[09:37] <twister004> ??
[09:37] <Jeeves_> Create an upstart job
[09:37] <Jeeves_> That will run ssh
[09:39] <Jeeves_>  /etc/init/udev.conf can be used as basic script
[09:39] <twister004> Jeeves_.. how do I create an upstart Job?.. I created a .sh file with 'autossh' running... and edited crontab.... @reboot /usr/local/bin/script.sh
[09:39] <Jeeves_> replace exec udevd --daemon with 'ssh -i $path_to_id_rsa $remoteuser@$remotebox'
[09:39] <Jeeves_> remove the 'expect fork' file
[09:40] <Jeeves_> s/file/line
[09:40] <twister004> Jeeves_.. could you start from the beginning... I lost you somtime back
[09:40] <Jeeves_> cp /etc/init/udev.conf /etc/init/rssh.conf
[09:40] <Jeeves_> vi /etc/init/rssh.conf
[09:41] <Jeeves_> replace exec udevd --daemon with 'ssh -i $path_to_id_rsa $remoteuser@$remotebox'
[09:41] <Jeeves_> remove the 'expect fork' line
[09:41] <Jeeves_> That should work, I think
[09:42] <twister004> Jeeves_... /etc/init/rssh.conf doesnt exist
[09:42] <Jeeves_> Indeed
[09:43] <Jeeves_> If you didn't do 'cp /etc/init/udev.conf /etc/init/rssh.conf', it won't exist
[09:44] <twister004> Jeeves_... $path_to_id_rsa should be the path to authorized_keys file correct?
[09:44] <Jeeves_> No
[09:44] <Jeeves_> id_rsa
[09:45] <twister004> Jeeves_... isn't id_rsa the local key?
[09:45] <Jeeves_> Yes
[09:45] <Jeeves_> And the ssh client on the local machine must use that specific keys
[09:45] <Jeeves_> the authorized_keys on $remotebox should have the line in id_rsa.pub in it
[09:46] <twister004> Jeeves_... I lost you there... what about passwordless ssh?
[09:47] <Jeeves_> That's what the keys are for
[09:47] <Jeeves_> You create a ssh key
[09:47] <Jeeves_> you end up with two files
[09:47] <twister004> yes
[09:47] <Jeeves_> id_rsa and id_rsa.pub
[09:47] <Jeeves_> the .pub file is the public key
[09:48] <Jeeves_> You copy/paste the contents into authorized_keys on any remote box you want
[09:48] <twister004> yes
[09:48] <twister004> yes
[09:48] <Jeeves_> id_rsa will be used by the local client to connect to the remote server
[09:48] <Jeeves_> if the remote server can verify the local key with the public key
[09:48] <Jeeves_> You are granted access
[09:49] <twister004> Jeeves_.. but then what should be edited in the id_rsa.pub file?
[09:50] <twister004> Jeeves_... in the rssh.conf file... is the following command correct?.. 'ssh -i /root/.ssh/ root@remote_hostname''
[09:51] <Jeeves_> Nothing should be edited in the .pub file
[09:51] <Jeeves_> I never said that :)
[09:51] <Jeeves_> -i should be /root/.ssh/id_rsa
[09:52] <twister004> ohk... so.. then... after the reboot of the source, the tunnel will be established... and how to I connect to to the source from the destination?
[09:53] <Jeeves_> http://www.howtoforge.com/reverse-ssh-tunneling
[09:54] <twister004> Jeeves_... I followed that same link and did it manually... I dont know how to automate the process
[09:55] <Jeeves_> twister004: You could think about combining my comments with the link you read
[09:56] <twister004> Jeeves_.. so instead of the command u specified, I just enter the command from the link?
[09:56] <Jeeves_> Combine the two, yes
[09:58] <twister004> Here goes nothing... commencing reboot :)
[09:58] <Jeeves_> You don't need to reboot
[09:58] <twister004> ?
[09:58] <Jeeves_> You can also type 'start rssh'
[09:59] <twister004> Jeeves_... I want to test it during bootup
[09:59] <twister004> coz the machine is going to be moved behind a firewall, and we wont have access to it
[10:01] <twister004> it doesn't work... and when I do a 'start rssh'... it gives me the following error - 'start: Unknown job: rssh'
[10:04] <twister004> Jeeves_.. any inputs?
[10:08] <Jeeves_> Oh
[10:08] <Jeeves_> Ehm
[10:08] <twister004> did I do something wrong?
[10:09] <Jeeves_> No, something needs to be refreshed
[10:10] <Jeeves_> initctl reload-configuration
[10:10] <twister004> wat's tjat?
[10:10] <Jeeves_> That tells upstart that there is a new file, iirc
[10:10] <twister004> it didnt work
[10:10] <twister004> still the same
[10:11] <Jeeves_> the file is called /etc/init/rssh.conf, right?
[10:11] <twister004> yes
[10:12] <Jeeves_> Works for me
[10:13] <twister004> huh/
[10:13] <Jeeves_> If I copy /etc/init/udev.conf to /etc/init/rssh.conf
[10:13] <twister004> ?
[10:13] <Jeeves_> I can run 'start rssh' without any issues
[10:13] <twister004> I did that
[10:13] <twister004> let me do it again
[10:15] <twister004> it didnt work
[10:16] <Jeeves_> can you pastebin the command 'cat /etc/init/rssh.conf' ?
[10:17] <twister004> Jeeves_.. here you go : http://pastebin.com/hnxNAKYK
[10:18] <Jeeves_> http://pastebin.com/C8yJMNBE
[10:18] <Jeeves_> That might work better
[10:18] <Jeeves_> http://pastebin.com/diff.php?i=C8yJMNBE
[10:18] <Wolfsherz> hello, when i created a ssh-key on my laptop, and copied the public part to the servers ~/.ssh directory the login via key works. will i be able to put my private key to my other machine or do i need to create a new key to connect with it?
[10:19] <Jeeves_> Wolfsherz: Private key can be transferred
[10:19] <Wolfsherz> Jeeves_: ok, but the public key has the computers user@hostname in it. is that a problem when connecting with the private key from another host?
[10:19] <Jeeves_> no
[10:20] <Jeeves_> That's just a comment
[10:20] <andol> Wolfsherz: You can copy your private key to the other machine, but really it is better/safer solution to create a new private key on the other machine.
[10:20] <Wolfsherz> andol: why is it safer do to so?
[10:20] <Wolfsherz> Jeeves_: thank you
[10:20] <twister004> Jeeves_.. ok.. the 'start rssh' worked... thanks!... but how do I connect back from the other side?
[10:21] <Jeeves_> twister004: You said you read that page on howtoforge :)
[10:21] <andol> Wolfsherz: In case you lose on of the computers, you can more easily revoke that public key.
[10:21] <andol> s/on/one/
[10:21] <twister004> Jeeves_... I did... and I tried 'ssh localhost -19999'... it refuses the connection
[10:22] <Jeeves_> twister004: I'd try -p 19999
[10:22] <Wolfsherz> andol: i have to paste that other pubkey to authorized_keys too then, right?
[10:22] <Jeeves_> And check if the ssh connection is really up
[10:22] <twister004> Jeeves_.. oops I typed it correctly... it doesn't work
[10:22] <andol> Wolfsherz: Yes
[10:22] <twister004> Jeeves_... using ps?
[10:22] <Jeeves_> twister004: And where is autossh located?
[10:23] <Wolfsherz> andol: and to revoke a public key i just remove that key from authorized_keys, or is there another way?
[10:23] <andol> Wolfsherz: exactly
[10:23] <Wolfsherz> andol: great, thank you
[10:24] <twister004> Jeeves_... I installed autossh
[10:24] <Jeeves_> Ah, ok.
[10:24] <twister004> it's under /usr/bin
[10:24] <Jeeves_> No clue what that is
[10:24] <Jeeves_> replace 'autossh' with '/usr/bin/ssh'
[10:25] <twister004> Jeeves_.. ok
[10:25] <twister004> Jeeves_... 'ps -ef | grep ssh' shows the process
[10:26] <Jeeves_> ok
[10:26] <twister004> Jeeves_... so, for some reason, the ssh is not working?.. even though the process is running in the background
[10:27] <Jeeves_> twister004: I can't see that from here, can I?
[10:27] <Jeeves_> Check if the proces you see still is the same
[10:27] <twister004> Jeeves_.. ill send u the output
[10:28] <Jeeves_> Check if the command is actually working by executing it yourselve
[10:29] <twister004> Jeeves_... it worked!!
[10:29] <twister004> you're awesome!!!!
[10:29] <twister004> Jeeves_.. will it autorun at bootup?
[10:29] <Jeeves_> it should, probably
[10:29] <Jeeves_> You might need to change 'start on'
[10:30] <twister004> Jeeves_.. what's that :(
[10:33] <twister004> Jeeves_.. actually, it stopped workin again... please see the pastebin contents... it's the output of 'ps -ef | grep ssh' 'http://pastebin.com/a6zDRFgt'
[10:34] <twister004> Jeeves_ it works now... sorry!
[10:37] <twister004> Jeeves_... however, it doesn't run at bootup.... please advise how I need to modify 'start on'
[10:38] <Jeeves_> set 'start on' to 'networking', I think
[10:38] <twister004> Jeeves_.. how do I do that... is that a command?
[10:38] <Jeeves_> grmbl
[10:38] <Jeeves_> Read the file /etc/init/rssh.conf
[10:45] <twister004> Jeeves_... sorry!... I changed it, but it still doesnt work on bootup
[10:56] <koolhead11> hi all
[11:00] <Jeeves_> twister004: No clue then
[11:55] <l456> Is 12.04 going to ship with ruby 1.9.1 ??
[11:57] <l456> Rails needs 1.9.2 and the latest stable is 1.9.3, it will be a major pain if it ships with 1.9.1 which few (if any) Ruby devs use...
[12:53] <pmatulis> 1.9.3.0
[16:43] <pmatulis> quiet here today
[16:45]  * genii-around makes more coffee
[16:50] <enrichedd> idk y but i got booted and banned from the ubuntu channel...
[16:51] <Pici> enrichedd: Please use #ubuntu-ops if you'd like to get that resolevd.

[16:55] <rbasak> robbiew: I've been poking the debian experimental version of openmpi today. It FTBFS on armel. I'm just trying a rebuild of 1.4.x to check its not my environment
[16:56] <rbasak> (but also it failed on Debian)
[16:56] <rbasak> https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=openmpi&suite=experimental
[16:56] <robbiew> rbasak: cool...well if it's crap, then this will be an easy blueprint :)
[16:56] <robbiew> we have some time, given the package is in universe
[16:56] <rbasak> robbiew: hopefully won't be too hard to fix :)
[17:13] <smoser> RoAkSoAx, pushed cobbler update with that fix from yesterday and 2 more to cobbler-ubuntu-import
[17:31] <PedroGomes> Hi, I have two Ubuntu server installations with the same sudoers file, being that one as a root login and the other not.
[17:31] <PedroGomes> Now I have a user X, and in the sudoers I have "X ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/puppetca" on both machines.
[17:31] <PedroGomes> If I run the command puppetca with user X without sudo or pass on one of the machines it works, on the other I need sudo. What is the difference?
[17:36] <genii-around> "being that one has a root login"
[17:39] <PedroGomes> genii-around: thats the difference? in the machine with a root login I have to use always the sudo command ?
[17:44] <genii-around> PedroGomes: The other way around, likely.
[17:45] <genii-around> If you're logged on as root, any command you issue automatically has the elevated rights that the sudo command is supposed to be used for.
[17:45] <PedroGomes> genii-around: thanks, but I already found my error after an half a day…
[17:46] <PedroGomes> I forget to add the user to the group that owns most of the folders affected by the command
[17:52] <smoser> hallyn, did you read the bug ?
[17:52] <smoser> i described how i triggered it.
[18:02] <hallyn> smoser: you said "i ran an instance".
[18:02] <smoser> inside devstack
[18:02] <smoser> did you try that ?
[18:02] <smoser> with that image?
[18:02] <smoser> /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/01-00-16-3e-3e-aa-03
[18:03] <smoser> RoAkSoAx, ^ how do i make cobbler udpate that file
[18:03] <hallyn> I don't know what devstack is.  Is it a wrapper around euca-build-iamge?
[18:03] <Daviey> smoser: change a setting in cobbler, like "netboot enabled"
[18:04] <Daviey> hallyn: devstack is the current fav' flavour for setting up a development openstack cloud
[18:04] <hallyn> if you're gonna use your little codewords than don't get snarky when i ask for detailed reproduction steps
[18:04] <Daviey> with all the different componets
[18:04] <smoser> hallyn, only because i like you, i'll give you alink
[18:04] <hallyn> yay!
[18:05] <smoser> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=devstack
[18:05] <smoser> Daviey, i want it to fix all of that garbage
[18:06] <hallyn> i'll get to that next year then
[18:06] <smoser> hallyn, and i'll give you a user-data scrript for Canonistack. just a minute.
[18:06] <adam_g> smoser: i think 'cobbler sync' will regenerate those tftp files as well as dnsmasq, dhcp, etc
[18:06] <smoser> thats what i wanted
[18:06] <smoser> gracias adam_g
[18:06] <hallyn> be back tomorrow for a sponsors gig.  out.
[19:35] <gondoi> anyone know where I can find more information on this, like when it will be "removed":
[19:35] <gondoi> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/java-to-be-removed-from-ubuntu-uninstalled-from-user-machines/
[19:39] <mdeslaur> gondoi: the browser plugin has already been disabled. We haven't decided yet when the other packages will be removed from the archive.
[19:39] <mdeslaur> gondoi: is there anything else you would like to know?
[19:40] <gondoi> mdeslaur: okay, well i was thinking more in the terms of a server that is running apps with it
[19:40] <gondoi> i.e. tomcat and such
[19:40] <mdeslaur> gondoi: I'd suggest trying to migrate to either openjdk or to oracle's java sometime in january
[19:41] <gondoi> i work at a hosting provider and I am trying to figure out the impact for our customers
[19:41] <gondoi> okay
[19:41] <gondoi> thank you mdeslaur
[19:41] <mdeslaur> gondoi: you're welcome
[20:43] <Wolfsherz> hello, i have got a serious problem after fiddling with ssh-keys on my server. i can not connect anymore with the error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[20:44] <Wolfsherz> i already booted the server in rescue mode to delete the authorized_keys in my home-directory. i also removed the private and public key on my machine at home.
[20:53] <smoser> ok server people, RoAkSoAx adam_g SpamapS .
[20:53] <smoser> i'm almost EOY
[20:53] <smoser> but i just pushed to lp:~orchestra/orchestra/odev
[20:54] <smoser> its largely a work in progress, but i'm sure that each of you, if wanted could get it going
[20:54]  * kirkland waves at smoser 
[20:54] <smoser> (cobbler-devenv -> odev)
[20:54] <smoser> hola crypto people
[20:55] <EvilResistance> Wolfsherz:  can you do ssh -vv (that's two v's)?  that'll tell you why its being closed at the remote host.
[20:57] <Wolfsherz> EvilResistance: I dont think that is possible as i can not connect to that server anymore. I can only boot a rescue-system
[21:06] <Wolfsherz> i get a lot of these: http://paste.ubuntu.com/779112/
[21:06] <Wolfsherz> in /var/log/auth.log
[21:11] <Wolfsherz> this is my /etc/ssh/sshd_config http://paste.ubuntu.com/779121/
[22:24] <yakster> can someone please help me with some syntax
[22:25] <yakster> I can't get stab to mount my NAS hdd, I can do it manual, but not fstab

[22:26] <yakster> and that cases /home to not mount….
[22:32] <yakster> ???
[23:01] <erichammond> yakster: What errors are you getting on the attempt to mount the cifs with /etc/fstab ?
[23:16] <yakster> error line 13… line 13 is the //192 line
[23:18] <yakster> line 13 is stab is bad
[23:40] <sixstringsg|afk> Is it possible on a dedicated server that I do not have physical access to to increase the size of the / partition?
[23:46] <ikonia> sixstringsg|afk: if it's not under lvm control, no
[23:47] <sixstringsg|afk> Can I symlink it to part of another partition to increase it?
[23:47] <sixstringsg|afk> It's 10Gb right now, I don't know how big it should be honestly.
[23:47] <ikonia> no
[23:47] <sixstringsg|afk> Or if I can clean some stuff out.
[23:47] <yakster> can someone help me out with some stab syntax?
[23:47] <ikonia> sixstringsg: you can symlink dir's - but you still can't change it's size
[23:48] <yakster> fstab syntax
[23:48] <ikonia> sixstringsg: you certainly can clean stuff out

[23:48] <sixstringsg> ikonia, suggestions on what to clean?
[23:48] <ikonia> sixstringsg: depends on your machine and what you're not using
[23:48] <ikonia> sixstringsg: what other seperate mount points you have too
[23:49] <sixstringsg> All I have are / /home and swap.
[23:49] <ikonia> sixstringsg: ok, so look at creating new partitions for things like var, mount that on a new partition and reboot, same for /tmp
[23:50] <ikonia> sixstringsg: look at what you are using software wise, open the package manager and clear down things you don't need/want
[23:50] <ikonia> just apply a logical common sense approach
[23:50] <sixstringsg> Ok, thanks.
[23:51] <yakster> does anyone know why a bad line in stab will cause /home to not mount?
[23:52] <ikonia> yakster: if the lines are wrong, they can't be used
[23:53] <ikonia> it's that simple,
