[00:23] <aarcane> so I'm running a few different OS' in a virsh/kvm+qemu virtual machine, and using virt-manager, I see some fields that I believe should NOT be empty, but they are for some reason.  Namely, the Overview page doesn't tell me the hostname or product name, nor does it list the application versions.  Is there somethng I need to do to enable this information, or is it simply not functional yet ?
[00:39] <osmosis> Im having difficulty understanding how encrypted home dirs work. The process is so transparent, so I have no idea what its doing.
[06:32] <pukeko> howdy
[06:34] <pukeko> i scp -r -p /folder/ host:/folder and it appeared that the ownership was preserved ( until i rebooted !! ) there was a lot of data with different users and groups ....
[06:35] <pukeko> question: can i fix this with rsync ?
[06:36] <pukeko> by "fix" i mean use rsync to restore the original ownership permissions
[07:03] <freenodiz> hi
[07:03] <freenodiz> settingup a lucid here :)
[07:17] <pukeko> it looks like rsync -av sorted it
[07:18] <freenodiz> hey!any guide up to date installing rvm single user to lucid?
[07:20] <freenodiz> nvm
[07:20] <freenodiz> got it
[07:22] <pukeko> whats nvm ?
[07:28] <freenodiz> never mind
[07:28] <freenodiz> pukeko
[07:53]  * pukeko does mind googles and discovers node
[07:54] <pukeko> : )
[15:27] <sirushti> So i've been following this tutorial http://cloud.ubuntu.com/2011/09/oneiric-server-deploy-server-fleets-p1/ and id like to know why they two NIC's on the virtual machine..if i'd have to do it on a physical machine..would i need two NIC's there or is there a possible workaround?
[15:27] <sirushti> :)
[16:43] <pangolin> Does ubuntu server have root enabled default?
[16:46] <strickly> no I dont think, you go with sudo first
[16:47] <pangolin> ok thank you.
[16:52] <arrrghhh> i think you can sudo su or smth
[16:52] <arrrghhh> but yea, sudo every command you want run as root.  minor inconvenience IMHO.
[17:41] <freenodiz> are you guys using this cookbooks in production? http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks

[21:27] <KoolaidJunkie> Hello Everyone.
[21:27] <KoolaidJunkie> Is there someone that could help me with a Samba Issue?
[21:27] <KoolaidJunkie> I changed my samba password via the serverbox, but its not requiring users from windows to enter the new password
[22:16] <matoc> KoolaidJunkie: what do you mean by "serverbox"
[22:16] <KoolaidJunkie> sorry that just what I call the pc running ubuntu server
[22:18] <KoolaidJunkie> im trying to map the Samba user to the Windows User, but I'm not having any luck
[22:18] <KoolaidJunkie> and the only instructions/tutorial I can find are explaining how to do it through a GUI Interface
[22:21] <matoc> KoolaidJunkie: are you using some form of centralized authentication server (AD, LDAP)?
[22:21] <matoc> or are they just local windows accounts?
[22:22] <KoolaidJunkie> Just local windows accounts. One machine runs Vista, and 2 have Win7
[22:23] <KoolaidJunkie> I'm trying to map a Samba user to the user on the Vista machine, and then allow that user Read Only
[22:23] <matoc> KoolaidJunkie: have you restarted the smbd and nmdb? this should close existing connections
[22:23] <KoolaidJunkie> Yes, i ran "Restart smbd" and "Restart nmbd"
[22:24] <KoolaidJunkie> I had to restart the Vista machine for it to close out the connection and request the new password
[22:24] <matoc> KoolaidJunkie: Ok. So the you've created an account on the Samba machine that has the same username and password as the account Windows comptuer? Correct?
[22:25] <KoolaidJunkie> No, the original account connect to the Samba Share was my root account, thats why I changed the password.
[22:25] <KoolaidJunkie> I have not created a new Samba user, outside the admin group, which I'm trying to map to the Windows user
[22:26] <KoolaidJunkie> Does the Samba username have to match username as the Windows user?
[22:26] <KoolaidJunkie> I have now*
[22:28] <matoc> no. Windows should store the username in the profile once you connect the first time and hit the remember password button.
[22:28] <matoc> *and password.
[22:29] <KoolaidJunkie> Okay, so I dont have to  map the Samba user and windows users?
[22:29] <KoolaidJunkie> I can just use any samba user on any windows machine?
[22:29] <matoc> yes
[22:29] <KoolaidJunkie> Okay, well that makes things a lot easier, thank you
[22:30] <matoc> No problem.
[22:31] <KoolaidJunkie> am I correct that "read list = username" will only give that user read access?
[22:33] <matoc> I should. But it might depend on the rest of your configuration.
[22:34] <matoc> you need to make sure that user also read access on the file level permissions.
[22:34] <matoc> among other things...
[22:37] <matoc> I think of network shares with 2 levels of access: SMB, you grant access to view the share, and file permissions, you grant access to view the contents of that share.
[22:39] <KoolaidJunkie> I set "write list = @sysadmin" "browseable = yes"   - and now the user is unable to write to that share
[22:40] <matoc> Is this a problem? is "the user" part of the sysadmin group?
[22:41] <KoolaidJunkie> No problem, user is not part of the sysadmin group, just as intended.
[22:41] <KoolaidJunkie> I don't want the user to have write access
[22:43] <KoolaidJunkie> Thank you for your help
