[03:14] I wasn't getting any responses on any channels I have tried so far...I didn't know if my computer's firewall was blocking this program or not so I was just trying a test message to see if I'd get something back or not [03:14] i guess the other channel is just not responding to my question [03:14] its on openldap... [03:14] if anyone has messed with it, I'd appreciate some help [03:17] not in years [03:30] hi I want to move a domain name from a shared webhosting account to my ubuntu 11.10 server on an AWS EC2 instance. When I change the nameserver, do I use the Public DNS address given for my instance? or do I have to use BIND? [03:40] so when you buy a domain you specify the domain server that manages that domain, you could either run your own bind instance or pay for someone to run a dns server on your behalf [03:40] what happens if I end up with two volume groups in LVM of the same name? [03:41] osmosis how did you do this? taken a hard disk with an existing lvm setup and put it in a new machine? [03:41] dns53, correct [03:42] vgscan only shows one [03:42] not sure how to find the other one [03:42] dmesg shows the disk is available [03:42] osmosis i'm not sure, it might be a good idea to remove the hard disk, rename the lvm and plug it back in [03:44] you might be able to use vgrename but it might be safer to do it without the new disk [03:48] ok I was wondering because the public amazon address given for my instance is referred to as a Public DNS, and if I could just use that address to point my domain to [03:48] http://i.imgur.com/RHP4p.png [03:49] dns53, okay, so i havent it on a different server without a vgname conflict, but its still not showing in vgscan [03:49] but who is hosting your dns? do you have your own domain? [03:50] oh the domain is with namecheap registrar [03:52] KeyGruin but you can create your own records? i believe you should be able to set up a cname instead of an A record and have that cname record point to xxx.amazonws.com [03:55] well I have a complete new ubuntu server instance, just like a VPS, on Amazon Web Services - it's a free 12 month trial [03:57] I'm just new to this game, of setting up a public LAMMP server, never delved into the domain stuff [03:58] KeyGruin well you can run your own bind instance on EC2, personally i pay someone else to run my dns but nothing is stopping you from doing it yourself [04:00] ok I am confused by one thing, why is the amazon address given to my instance referred to as a DNS? is that not a domain name server? [04:02] yes amazon has a domain server and has assigned your vm a domain, you can use this but it is long and hard to remember === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away [04:06] i do not believe it is currently up (i have tried pinging the domain in the image) but you should be able to see it from the internet [04:06] yes that is why I want to assign another domain name to it, one I own but is currently attached to a free shared hostin plan I do not wish to continue with [04:06] it is up [04:06] but I don't have Apache configured yet [04:09] the fact that amazon gives you an obscure entry for the server does not stop you from giving a better domain for the server [04:09] yes I am aware of that [04:10] I just don't know how to go about it [04:10] can you login to namecheap and see if you can set up your own dns records? or can you only say what dns server holds the records? [04:11] I can yes [04:12] I don't know about setting up my own records but I can log in and change the dns addresses [04:12] so you can create an A record? point it to 23.20.29.213 (i believe this is your current ip address of your vm) [04:12] no clue [04:12] I am not at that level of understanding this [04:12] ok so you will need to run bind on your server and set up the records there [04:12] ok [04:13] I'm looking at the ubuntu-server docs with that info [04:13] so namecheap will point to you, you say with an A record that your ip is the domain [04:16] so dns is flexible, it allows you to have multiple dns servers, pointing to multiple servers and different servers for sub domains for example [04:16] when you buy a domain you specify the dns server that has the authority for your domain [04:20] which either has to be one created by myself on my own server or an external one that generally charges for the service, correct? [04:20] yes [04:21] ok I think I have enough to go on without stumbling too blindly, thanks for the help [04:23] dig is your friend, dig domain.com to see the records and see if it is working as expected [04:25] cool, ty === sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg [05:05] when i do a list command, or help, the screen is small and scrolls through too fast to read anything [05:05] is there a command to tell the terminal to only print so many lines to the screen?

[06:22] hex20dec, you'll have to be more specific [06:26] qman___:Well, I'm having a lot of problems with my DNS stuff, I'm very new to the whole server management thing. I tired reading a lot of articles but it's really complicated and I just need to get it to work for basic things, so I just need to set it up in a simplified way. [06:26] If you can help me that would be great. [06:27] the server guide is about as straight forward as it gets [06:27] if you're still having problems after following it, ask away [06:27] Can you link me to the guide you're referring to?

[06:29] sorry, no [06:29] Jk, there probably isn't. I'll just read. [06:29] if you're too lazy to read, I'm too lazy to help [06:30] Thank, though.

[08:03] and yes SMB=Samba [08:03] yes [08:04] they do not interfere with each other [08:05] really? great! even sharing the same folders? [08:06] yes, the protocols are unrelated and there are no conflicts when sharing the same files [08:06] cool. thanks! [08:06] the only thing you may run into are character encoding issues, special characters don't show up right on windows or may get garbled when used over one or the other [08:07] nothing show stopping, a minor annoyance at worst [08:10] hm. but NFS is much faster correct? especially for streaming movies over the network from the server.... [08:11] not necessarily, each has its own advantages [08:11] SMB can generally achieve higher data rates, but NFS generally has better response times and is better for streaming and small files [08:12] doesn't higher data rates = better streaming? [08:12] NFSv3 is not secure [08:12] but workgroup SMB isn't all that secure either [08:12] no, streaming only needs enough data rate for the stream, lag spikes and disconnections are worse on it [08:14] so generally NFS works better for streaming? [08:15] like big .mkv's and such [08:15] both work well enough over a gigabit LAN [08:15] I've noticed over wifi that, for me, NFS works better [08:17] hm. guess if I can use both on the same files I can try them both huh? :) [08:17] NFS and SMB i mean [08:18] yes [08:19] k thanks! be back tomorrow [08:19] have a good night [08:22] Hey, I need some advice on a server OS.

[08:24] My friends and I want to make an FTTP fileserver so we can do web design on da cloudz. [08:24] How is wine with linux servers? [08:24] wine is, generally speaking, a desktop application [08:25] needs a GUI, etc [08:25] Yeah, we are going to have a GUI also. It wont be a server only. [08:25] Is ubuntu-server GUI less? [08:25] yes [08:26] you can install one, but then it's not really a server anymore [08:26] Okay, I know my way around normal Ubuntu enough to do what I want. [08:26] Oh! A purist! [08:26] Thanks. Pointed me in the right direction. [08:39] qman___: erm... a server doesn't stop being a server if you install X on it... [08:40] not strictly speaking, but that is one of only a handful of differences between desktop and server [08:40] and since X is not supported in this channel [08:40] well, you get the idea [09:58] qman___: I know, just wanted to underline that server functions don't die out at the time a GUI is installed === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away === lifeless_ is now known as lifeless === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [17:07] Hiya. [17:08] Could someone help me track down a problem with Postfix that I strongly suppose is PEBKAC? [17:09] I've set up a mail forwarding domain and the according aliases, but Postfix keeps telling me that the user I'm trying to forward to is unknown. [17:10] postmap -q virtual@addrees /etc/postfix/virtual returns the apppropriate forwarding address [17:10] but still mail.log is all full of status=bounced unknown user [17:15] and the map is in virtual_maps or such?

[17:17] yeah, restarting the service and rebuilding the virtual db files. [17:17] like I said, this is going to be something very stupid. [17:18] yeah, known to work and all that.
