| osmosis | is there a way to enable LVM encryption on a disk that was not installed with LVM encryption? | 01:19 |
| === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
| NeoNetNinja | osmosis: what it installed with LVM at all? Ergo, are the "partitions" LVM? | 01:33 |
| NeoNetNinja | was* | 01:33 |
| NeoNetNinja | osmosis: here is your answer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1335083 | 01:35 |
| osmosis | NeoNetNinja, yes, the partitions should be LVM | 01:35 |
| osmosis | NeoNetNinja, thx | 01:36 |
| osmosis | cool | 01:36 |
| NeoNetNinja | osmosis: you're welcome | 01:37 |
| osmosis | hmm..so it may in some shape be possible, but id had to reparition anyways, so a full reinstall is probably the fastest route | 01:37 |
| NeoNetNinja | that's what I would do | 01:37 |
| NeoNetNinja | here is a good guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1205372 | 01:38 |
| NeoNetNinja | or use TrueCrypt | 01:38 |
| NeoNetNinja | or: http://joernfranz.net/2011/01/20/installing-ubuntu-10-10-with-full-disk-encryption/ | 01:39 |
| NeoNetNinja | the alternate install is pretty much the same for all recent versions | 01:40 |
| osmosis | ill take a look | 01:41 |
| osmosis | that second link is a bit outdated...the newer installer is even easier | 01:42 |
| osmosis | " I know that “Guided – use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM” looks sexy to you, but please don’t press that. We’ll do things by hand." | 01:43 |
| osmosis | why did he pick that...why not just use guided. | 01:44 |
| qman__ | because guided partitioning, while convenient, isn't very smart | 01:49 |
| qman__ | if you're trying to do anything with multiple disks, you probably don't want guided | 01:49 |
| qman__ | if you have any specific requirements, it probably won't meet them | 01:49 |
| qman__ | and with servers, you tend to have those things, so showing how to do it manually is important | 01:50 |
| qman__ | if you just have a laptop with one drive you want encrypted, the guided is probably good | 01:51 |
| taipres | in the US judge recently ruled they can make you decrypt the harddrive legally | 02:01 |
| taipres | don't have to give up pass but have to decrypt for them, so probably best to use truecrypt | 02:02 |
| taipres | and hidden os | 02:02 |

| gmr_ | Hi there, was referred here from #ubuntu | 02:47 |
| gmr_ | Hoping someone can help me out, I have a 11.10 server install, trying to get things setup and am having trouble adding an eth0:0 alias. It seems that service networking stop/start/restart doesn't work, I believe I have the config correct (https://gmr.privatepaste.com/64a38a3706) and if I reboot the server, eth0 comes up but eth0:0 does not. | 02:47 |
| gmr_ | (paste has the examples of running the commands) | 02:47 |
| qman__ | gmr_, does `sudo ifup eth0:0` bring up the interface as expected? | 03:34 |
| gmr_ | tells me it's already configured | 03:35 |
| gmr_ | yet ifconfig eth0:0 doesn't show anything | 03:35 |
| gmr_ | hmm yet pinging the ip works :| | 03:35 |
| qman__ | try ifdown, then ifup | 03:35 |
| gmr_ | i've been waiting a fair amount of time on a non-problem it seems. | 03:36 |
| qman__ | heh | 03:36 |
| qman__ | happens to the best of us | 03:36 |
| gmr_ | hmm ifdown eth0:0 shutdown all of eth0 | 03:36 |
| gmr_ | am more of a slackware, lfs, *bsd of guy trying to jump on the more enterprisey bus | 03:37 |
| qman__ | well, learning the debian way does take a little time, but I find it to be much easier in the long run | 03:39 |
| qman__ | though you do occasionally run into things like this where it doesn't work as expected | 03:39 |
| qman__ | the 'networking' service has been a little iffy ever since they started moving things to upstart | 03:40 |
| gmr_ | thanks for the point at ifup/ifdown.. probably wouldn't ahve tried to ping the interface otherwise. | 03:40 |

| Womkes | Is there any documentation yet available for setting up xen on the latest ubuntu? I understand that ubuntu now has full supprot for xen with 11.10 | 10:41 |
| Womkes | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen | 10:42 |
| Womkes | that is outdated | 10:42 |
| chelz | Womkes: if xen doesn't provide anything then blogposts might be your best bet | 10:48 |
| chelz | i found these: | 10:48 |

| chelz | Womkes: http://old-list-archives.xen.org/archives/html/xen-users/2011-10/msg00324.html | 10:50 |
| chelz | Womkes: according to that mailing list thread it's really simple. i'd read those few messages | 10:50 |
| chelz | then just refer to standard xen documentation. googling for errors if you get any along the way. | 10:50 |

| eagles0513875_ | hey guys im just wondering is it possible to specify an ipv6 ip if dhcp doesnt manage to automatically configure the ip | 13:10 |
| RoyK | !ipv6 | 13:16 |
| ubottu | For an introduction to IPv6 and information on tunneling IPv6 through IPv4 connections, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 | To disable IPv6 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 | 13:16 |
| RoyK | eagles0513875_: the short answer is "yes" | 13:16 |
| eagles0513875_ | ok sweet :D was just wondering was all :) working on getting varnish setup to act as an ipv4 to 6 kinda tunnel on my server thanks RoyK :) | 13:17 |
| patdk-lap | heh, sounds like you want slaac | 13:20 |
| patdk-lap | royk, comstar with ip6 is kind of funny | 13:21 |
| patdk-lap | my 4nic server suddently has 32 iscsi paths, cause it's using ip4 and ip6 :) | 13:21 |
| eagles0513875_ | patdk-lap: what is slaac anyway | 13:29 |
| eagles0513875_ | the server i want to do this on is an esxi host was going to setup a small guest with varnish to do the ipv4 to 6 tunneling | 13:29 |
| patdk-lap | http://lmgtfy.com/?q=slaac | 13:30 |
| Tm_T | patdk-lap: tsssk | 13:40 |
| eagles0513875_ | RoyK: would SLAAC be enough in regards to allowing clients access to stuff like ssh over an ipv4 connection | 13:44 |
| RoyK | eagles0513875_: sorry, I'm not really updated on ipv6 | 13:47 |
| eagles0513875_ | ok will ask in ipv6 | 13:47 |

| dravekx | is there a link to install oracle java 7? | 16:18 |
| qman__ | dravekx, There is no packaged version of oracle java anymore, because oracle did not renew the license which allowed this to happen in the first place. To install it, you must download it from oracle and compile/install it the old fashioned way. | 16:31 |
| qman__ | In case you didn't gather as much already, this is not an ubuntu recommended thing to do. | 16:32 |
| dravekx | what's the recommended thing? openjdk? | 16:33 |
| qman__ | yes | 16:33 |
| qman__ | Considering official Java's security record, it was already not exactly a recommended thing to do before. | 16:34 |
