[17:38] Hello, how is everyone? I had a quick question troubleshooting my ubuntu 11.10 server installation. I installed the same OS on 2 different servers and I'm experiencing the same problem. What happens is I turn on the server, it's ok for few hours, and then when I try to SSH to it, it get a time out, when I plug in the keyboard, and type something then I can connect to it again. Seems that [17:38] it's going to some kind of sleep mode. Note, no desktop was installed just pure server OS. Anyone had this issue before? what could cause it? Thanks [17:48] borudev: do you possibly have something like powernap installed? [17:48] borudev: perhaps look in /var/log/syslog after it wakes up [17:49] I didn't install anything other than server os [17:49] maybe some kind of power management came with the os? [17:49] borudev: shouldn't. [17:52] I dont have direct access to the server right now, all i can do is reboot it remotely [17:54] borudev: look through /var/log/syslog .. will probably have something around the time the server becomes unresponsive [17:54] Hmm.. Anyone know a way to get a pptp connection to always try to reconnect on connection drop? [17:54] Right now, when they change anything on their end, which is a lousy Windows server, it drops us from the VPN which causes some of our stuff not to work /for/ them, etc etc etc.. [17:55] It'd be cool if it were able to tie into upstart to keep it persistant, but the persistant isn't working as-is. [17:55] Psi-Jack: I use an upstart job to run 'keep-one-running' to keep a few tunnels alive [17:56] sounds redundant, but keep-one-running is more heavy handed and will continue to try forever, whereas upstart will give up [17:56] Psi-Jack: but I don't do pptp .. these are just ssh [17:56] SpamapS: Oh? Do you have any docs on how you set that up, or even a sample upstart.conf file? [17:56] Cause I can setup pptp to not daemonize itself or whatever it takes. [17:57] I just want to be able to keep this up no matter what. LOL [18:02] Hmm, the way it seems to call it is to pppd call [18:02] from pon [18:08] Think I got it. [18:08] Was as simple as copying the rsyslog.conf and changing the "script" section to just usr /usr/sbin/pppd call [18:08] use* [18:09] But when I kill the pppd process, it doesn't respawn.. [18:13] Psi-Jack: add 'respawn' [18:23] Daviey: do you have a bug for the cloud-image language thing? or do I need to file one? [18:32] SpamapS: if it hasn't already been accepted, can you reject 0.7.5-5ubuntu27.22 from lucid-proposed queue? [18:33] so nobody any tips regarding my virtfs problems?

What does oftc means? [18:37] irc.oftc.net, another irc server [18:37] ok, will do. Thanks [18:40] hallyn: rejected [18:40] SpamapS: thanks! and so now i can re-upload with that same version?

Have you posted more info elsewhere? what is going wrong? [18:52] basically doenst give me time to hit f12 to boot into the pxe boot menu [18:52] just says it cannot boot from the partition on the remote machine and shuts down in 30 sec [18:52] do you have ipxe isntalled? what release are you on?

[18:57] eagles0513875: you could try that, but I have no idea whether xen would be able to use that or not.

[19:23] is there an easy way to shut down all the parts of an orchestra server, including dhcp server etc? I want to leave it configured but take it offline. [19:27] anyone? [19:27] re preseed, why would someone use 'partman-auto/text/atomic_scheme' instead of 'partman-auto/expert_recipe' ? [19:29] tcheck8: are you using ufw or iptables? [19:30] i dont think i'm using either. i created a virtual host file for the site in sites available in /etc/apache2/ so that port 80 will redirect to 7080. that worked fine. its when i added the code to forward 80 to 443 that everything got messed up [19:33] https://students.gotdns.com should redirect to students.gotdns.com:7080 (over ssl), but it's not doing that if you look === sixstringsg|afk is now known as sixstringsg [19:38] it looks like i managed to get it to work, i had to modify default-ssl in sites-available. it seems strange because i didnt have to modify default when i added the virtual host file for my website on port 80 [20:03] utlemming: sorry, missed your question.. I did not raise a bug [20:04] Daviey: np -- in talking with smoer, it looks like we need to ask foundations [20:05] Daviey: the problem the only locale that is installed by default is en_US.utf8. The other ones have to be generated or you have to use cloud-config to set it manually. [20:06] I have an idea of how to fix that such that any SSH user could get whatever locale they want, but it would require chnages to /etc/profile.d [20:06] I'll copy you on my email to foundations [20:06] IIRC there are language packs that you can just apt-get install [20:07] SpamapS: yes, but it bloats the size of the images and the SSH LANG does not override /etc/default/locale [20:08] utlemming: not arguing they'd be good on the default image.. but rather, that generating them is not necessary [20:10] utlemming: sounds rocking === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away [20:15] New bug: #920636 in openssh (main) "Clearing up language in man page of ssh-keygen" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/920636 [20:26] Hello, how is everyone?

[20:56] JanC: good catch:) [20:56] well, it says its a directory apparently [20:56] unless the "ls" before was done differently [20:57] JanC: myCA is a directory (if that is what you are asking), within my /home/user/tcheck8/ [20:57] tcheck8: you mean /home/tcheck8 I suppose [20:58] janc: yes, i'm sorry. [20:58] and you are sure you are in that directory at the moment you execute the "cd"? [20:58] yes, i am positive. [20:59] tcheck8: what does pwd say?

[21:06] tcheck8: of course :) [21:08] guntbert: i've logged in and ran ls and receive: Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop README.txt [21:08] which is not accurate. there should be far more files. [21:09] tcheck8: aah, you created an encrypted home directory [21:09] guntbert: stupid me! i couldnt recall weather or not i had done this, but it only seemed advantageous to do so. is it necessary, and is it possible to unencrypt it? [21:09] !encrypt | tcheck8 [21:09] tcheck8: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [21:11] guntbert: at this point, i think i'd like to simply "unencrypt" my directory. is this even possible? [21:11] tcheck8: please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome [21:12] guntbert: i was reading over that now. [21:13] tcheck8: that was different from the first link though :) [21:14] guntbert: i managed to stumble upon the link you provided via google, but this page doesnt mention anything about going from encrypted to unencrypted :( [21:15] guntbert: also, i've gone ahead and logged into the physical server and THEN tried to ssh, but i'm still not seeing the files i should be via SSH. do i need to be doing another step? when i first setup ssh, i did move the authorized_keys file out of the encrypted directory so that i could use public keys to login. [21:15] tcheck8: no, that way is a little cumbersome - you open the encrypted home, save everything to another location, and then.... [21:17] tcheck8: to be honest its getting late here, I remember a detailed howto but I cannot find it right now [21:17] that's fine, you've already provided me with some invaluable help. i'll continue to search more later. [21:17] guntbert: because, as a matter of fact, i must be going as well [21:18] you can also mount the ecryptfs filesystem...

[21:20] tcheck8: and you can add something to your bash startup scripts so that it mounts it when logged in over ssh [21:20] janC: thank you!

[21:23] tcheck8: after ssh'ing into the server, try running 'ecryptfs-mount-private' and enter your password when asked, then do 'ls' again [21:24] JanC: oh my god. as you sent that recommendation i found it elsewhere and tried it....this is all i have been missing this entire time!!!!! such a simple and SMALL oversight! [21:24] oh, and after running it, je first need to 'cd /home/tcheck8' before the ls maybe [21:25] JanC: yes, i needed to do that. [21:25] but now everything works as nomral [21:25] JanC: thank you so much for your help. [21:28] JanC: how familiar are you with ssl certificates? [21:29] I have created and used them... [21:29] tcheck8: but I really need to leave you for today ☺ [21:30] JanC: fair enough :). thank you for your help! [21:30] i should be going, too. [22:29] Sooo, anyone else use nsd on Ubuntu? [22:31] Because I've installed it, and there's apparently no nsd.conf file, and I tried creating one (at /etc/nsd/nsd.conf), and restarted nsd and so on, and it doesn't seem to have taken effect. Is the real config in some hidden location or something? [22:41] Takyoji: have you compiled the nsd.conf? NSD doesn't work like BIND in that respect [22:58] I have not compiled nsd.conf [23:00] Unless if you mean 'nsdc rebuild' [23:07] right. that's the step that's required [23:08] Because I've done that, I've restarted, I've done everything. No changes. [23:10] Actually I guess nsd doesn't even have a config file anymore [23:11] Or the inverse [23:20] someone's been messing with lxc-clone upstream === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away
