[00:00] <Lcawte> arrrghhh: cheers for your help :D
[00:01] <xubuntu925> any way of waking a sleeping computer via ssh? or some sort of remote way?
[00:05] <dork> 'wake'
[00:05] <dork> define wake
[00:05] <xubuntu925> come back on from sleeping
[00:05] <dork> obviously
[00:05] <xubuntu925> i guess wake on lan might do it
[00:06] <dork> you meen suspension
[00:06] <dork> yeah
[00:06] <xubuntu925> but that doesn't work with WIFI RIght?
[00:06] <dork> i'd do wake on lan
[00:06] <dork> uhm
[00:06] <dork> no
[00:06] <dork> it's bios level so no
[00:06] <xubuntu925> thanks again!
[00:06] <dork> it needs to feel the powah
[00:06] <dork> np
[00:06] <xubuntu925> makes sense
[00:06] <xubuntu925> and great spelling :P
[00:06] <dork> :P
[00:45] <arrrghhh> ok, that's exactly what i want.  but i can't seem to find directions that apply to win7...
[00:45] <arrrghhh> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallMultiDistro <--- is freakin clutch
[00:46] <arrrghhh> at the bottom it says you can boot windows, and you should look here http://oss.netfarm.it/guides/ris-linux.php
[00:46] <arrrghhh> which seems to cover win2k, 2k3 and xp... :(
[00:46] <arrrghhh> maybe i'll try to modify it to work with 7
[00:46] <arrrghhh> if anyone has attempted such things, i'm all ears :D
[00:46] <arrrghhh> er... eyes?
[01:48] <Lcawte> Hi, I got my server working after fixing FluxNet stuff, then I unplugged the monitor and when I rebooted it, it won't load into a grub on any of my disks, what happened?
[01:49] <Lcawte> oh, wait, no, I acidently unplugged the disk while the machine was still on to put it back together (screw the drives back into the bays in the case) and now it won't boot into grub
[02:05] <rurufufuss> any recommendations for an ircd for ubuntu?
[02:08] <pmatulis> Lcawte|Away: re-install grub i guess
[03:37] <arrrghhh> Rurufufuss, I like znc
[08:28] <attilio> ciao

[09:17] <jmt> no one saying hello..
[09:34] <orated> I've noip2 installed for DDNS wherein while configuring it, it asks whether I want to disable NAT to detect external IP of this computer.. How enabling/disabling it can affect noip2?
[09:35] <orated> Or how does disabling NAT affects in general?
[09:59] <jmt> iptables -F -t nat
[09:59] <jmt> i think  you are using iptables.
[09:59] <jmt> right?
[10:03] <jmt> orated...ru thr?
[10:04] <orated> yes
[10:04] <orated> one moment
[10:04] <jmt> no probs..
[10:04] <orated> jmt:  iptables -F -t nat gives FATAL error
[10:05] <jmt> which os ur using?
[10:05] <orated> Ubuntu 11.10
[10:06] <jmt> it should work
[10:06] <orated> -F -t flushes nat table?
[10:06] <jmt> yea
[10:06] <orated> How does that help?
[10:07] <orated> Could you explain me how disabling NAT helps in general ..
[10:09] <orated> It says - Error inserting ip_tables (/lib/modules/3.0.0-14-generic/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.ko)
[10:18] <jmt> hello orated
[10:57] <RoyK> jmt: he left
[10:57] <RoyK> jmt: and btw, -F will only flush the rules of a chain in memory, it won't affect anything after a reboot
[11:26] <airtonix> jmt: so how does disabling NAT assist a ddclient determine the WAN address of your internet connection :>
[15:38] <arrrghhh> hey all.  anyone setup a pxe imaging server capable of provisioning win as well as lin machine?
[15:38] <arrrghhh> s*
[15:38] <arrrghhh> the linux provisioning part seems simple.  i've done it before, just never setup a menu to control it - i think i can get that part handled.
[15:46] <Resistance> anyone here able to assist me in configuring apcupsd on my server?
[15:47] <arrrghhh> i've got that running on my server, what do you need
[15:47] <Resistance> the wiki page just sits on a "Transferring data from wiki.u.c" page
[15:47] <Resistance> arrrghhh:  the info about configuring it
[15:47] <arrrghhh> oh...
[15:47] <Resistance> the wiki page just never loads (probly a net issue on my end)
[15:47] <arrrghhh> i can peek at my config file
[15:47] <arrrghhh> let me see
[15:47] <Resistance> ah there it is
[15:47] <Resistance> *kicks the evil gateway box*
[15:47] <Resistance> stupid flow control
[15:47] <arrrghhh> http://www.apcupsd.org/manual/manual.html
[15:48] <arrrghhh> i was going to say, loads fine for me :P
[15:48] <Resistance> :P
[15:49] <Resistance> i put a GUI on a server installation here at my home net, and everything's hooked up to an apc Back-UPS RS-700 USP so...
[15:49] <Resistance> i figure, "Rather than dealing with potential explosion of the ext4 journal on unsafe power loss, why not hook up the UPS and use it to determine when to power down :P
[15:50] <arrrghhh> yup
[15:50] <arrrghhh> i have the same setup, minus the GUI
[15:50] <arrrghhh> not sure what model UPS either, but it works great
[15:50] <Resistance> yeah, i put on the GUI very recently ;P
[15:50] <arrrghhh> i have it connected via USB
[15:50] <arrrghhh> and it shuts down the server properly every time.
[15:50] <Resistance> yeah same here, a USB cable
[15:50] <Resistance> normally power outages here are very brief...
[15:50] <arrrghhh> ditto
[15:50] <Resistance> so the UPS isnt taxed very long
[15:50] <Resistance> but when a severe power outage occurs...
[15:50] <Resistance> well...
[15:50] <Resistance> :P:
[15:51] <arrrghhh> had i think 2 this year that the UPS actually had to shut the server down
[15:51] <Resistance> :P *
[15:51] <arrrghhh> it's fun being online with no power tho.
[15:51] <Resistance> yeah well i never bothered to configure apcupsd ;P
[15:51] <Resistance> heh
[15:51] <Resistance> that is true
[15:51] <Resistance> i have a similar setup :P
[15:51] <arrrghhh> nice
[15:51] <Resistance> cept the server box is actually the gateway to the internet... :P
[15:51] <arrrghhh> ah, i just have a router that's also on the UPS.
[15:51] <Resistance> (I basically sent all the Verizon fios router traffic to the gateway box
[15:52] <Resistance> and let it handle things ;P
[15:52] <arrrghhh> i think i get like 20 minutes with the cable modem, router and server.  if i power down the server that doubles to 40.
[15:52] <Resistance> anyways back to config
[15:52] <arrrghhh> np
[15:52] <arrrghhh> enjoy
[15:52] <Resistance> without the server, there is up to 70 minutes of power available :P
[15:52] <Resistance> with the server, 35ish
[15:53] <arrrghhh> ugh.  i can't believe i'm still stuck on this step.  do you know where dhcp3-server logs to?
[15:56] <Resistance> arrrghhh:  unfortunately, no... but if you could give me a quick peek at said config file, i'm missing tons of "examples" and "documentation" that the wiki page should be in the conf file :/
[15:56] <arrrghhh> oh my apcupsd config file?
[15:58] <arrrghhh> it's pretty default IIRC
[15:58] <arrrghhh> Resistance, http://pastebin.com/UmNLRGmL
[15:58] <Resistance> thanks
[15:59] <arrrghhh> np
[16:00] <arrrghhh> how the...
[16:01] <arrrghhh> brb
[16:02] <Resistance> huh interesting...
[16:02] <Resistance> when i installed it didnt give me sample data :/
[16:05] <Resistance> but now its configured and seems to be working :P
[16:06] <arrrghhh> cool
[16:06] <arrrghhh> i solved my problem too
[16:06] <arrrghhh> oy..
[16:06] <Resistance> arrrghhh:  i changed some arguments on my end, but now its configured, and apcaccess is showing all the info too :P
[16:06] <Resistance> i did up the query rate though...
[16:06] <Resistance> namely because i dont want it checking every minute ;P
[16:07] <Resistance> (every 30 seconds works xD)
[16:07] <arrrghhh> nice
[16:18] <arrrghhh> ugh, now dns isn't working :(
[16:21] <arrrghhh> there we go.  this is going to take a while if i get hung up on every step like this lol
[16:25] <arrrghhh> anyone setup a PXE server to install windows and linux?
[16:26] <arrrghhh> seems XP might be easier to tackle at first, but i'd like to setup the pxe server to be able to install anything really.
[16:33] <patdk-lap> linux is easy
[16:33] <patdk-lap> doing windows seems to require 3rd party software, and I never bothered
[16:33] <patdk-lap> but for and debian/ubuntu just use the netboot files, it's all there
[16:37] <arrrghhh> patdk-lap, yea, i think i can do the lin part easily
[16:37] <arrrghhh> i have in the past
[16:39] <arrrghhh> patdk-lap, and it doesn't "require" said third-party software... but it seems to make the whole process a lot easier.
[16:39] <arrrghhh> not that the process is easy in the first place
[16:40] <arrrghhh> i'm trying to wade my way thru this guide
[16:40] <arrrghhh> http://www.ultimatedeployment.org/win7pxelinux1.html
[18:15] <raubvogel> Isn't there a way to say some accounts can ssh into a machine but only run one specific command?
[18:15] <raubvogel> I think that is doable using key pairs, but how about in ldap?
[18:21] <Lcawte> Hmmm, so I had my server all fixed yesterday, and was putting it back together (hdds were hanging out of their case) when some cables came out, then when I plugged it back in and did the case up, I couldn't boot into any grub installs
[18:23] <Lcawte> Grub is there, and they all launch on other machines, I've even tried grub-install on both drives with no problems
[18:24] <Lcawte> Shift shows GRUB loading then nothing else, whats going on?
[19:10] <Lcawte> Nobody?
[20:46] <Sporty> type /server -m irc.anabolnet.org we are searching for irc operators and helpers to make the network bigger.
[20:50] <Resistance> um...
[20:50] <Resistance> someone want to explain why i consider that spam?
[23:08] <virusuy> howdy and merry xmas everyone !
