[00:01] * hallyn out - maybe bbl [00:01] hmm, and now my tty works fine ... [00:01] hallyn: I'll do some more tests and e-mail you the results. I don't have a working C implementation though (and I believe you'd be much faster at doing that than I'm ;)) === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away [01:04] I'm reinstalling Ubuntu Server 11.10 on a system where I had previously setup an LVM to use software RAID 1. I no longer want to use software RAID, but now whenever I attempt an install, the installer reports it has found one or more disks containing a RAID configuration. How can I remove this configuration? I have reformatted the drives... I also ran dmsetup and cleared the device mapper... what am I missing? [01:05] Blank the drives, iirc. [01:06] Just zero the drives for a bit, enough to wipe the raid headers. [01:06] cloakable: what would be the most reliable way to do this? I have the server install and I can get to a shell from there using the "Rescue a broken system" [01:07] with the 1.0 metadata format, the superblock is at the end [01:07] anyway, surely the installer can be told to shut up and proceed (it can via preseed, at least) [01:08] I told it not to activate the raid devices, which lets me partition as I would expect, but the resulting installation does not have a working GRUB [01:08] it blanks out before even displaying what stage it is loaading [01:09] Tohuw: "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/" iirc. [01:09] May take a while, depending on disk size. [01:10] 2x 1.5 TB, SATA II... coffee breaks [01:11] Mmhm. [01:11] Run the command in parallel, leave it a while. [01:12] Can someone point me to TFM to R so I can understand superblocks, and the way partitioning actually works below the filesystem level? [01:13] I understand RAID in a practical sense, and I understand LVMs, but not the mechanics; e.g. what's actually happening under the hood and where that is living in relation to what is actually visible to the OS [01:20] cloakable: what is the correct way to run this command in parallel? I'm having difficulty grokking parallel's page on GNU.org [01:22] Tohuw: "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ &" will run the command in the background until it completes. [01:33] cloakable: yeah, I ended up doing that... I was trying to get all fancy with it >_< clearly coffee time [01:33] Haha [03:55] hello, what are these -- MARK -- [03:55] messages that keep being logged in /var/log/messages? [03:56] Has anyone seen any issues where virtual interfaces won't show up in ifconfig? [03:56] The interface can be brought up, and it works, just not visible to ifconfig apparently === sixstringsg|away is now known as sixstringsg [04:22] hello. im trying to run the apache in my virtual server i installed apache2 but still cant access the ip [04:29] I found linux-ip.net stuff to help me set up two internet connections that I have, but the examples show them coming in on two different interfaces, whereas I have two routers that are connected on the same lan. [04:29] I want all traffic coming in on one connection, to go back out the same connection. [04:34] Hello, Linux noob here. Does anyone know if I can use wubi to install ubuntu server, or any other ubuntu distro? [04:42] has anyone had problems with apache2 and php5 on Ubuntu server 11.10? [04:42] i am having tash [04:42] mine is not even opening lol [04:43] fluvvell: you can't have that [04:43] I'm getting a white screen :) === dduffey is now known as dduffey_afk [04:43] I moved my site from old server to this, and can't get it to load ... :( [04:43] the only thing that I can get to work is the It Works! page [04:43] twb, I cant have two incoming internet connections? [04:43] fluvvell: it's possible if you have an AS (i.e. you're an ISP). [04:44] i cant get it working tash. [04:44] not like that at least, you need a load balancer [04:44] I don't know if I'm missing VirtualHost config or what [04:44] what do you mean by an AS [04:44] anyone able to help rf5 and I out? [04:44] fluvvell: otherwise you can approximate it with a lot of fiddly netfilter and ip rule rules, which are beyond your capabilities [04:44] what did u do tash, just apt-get install apache2? [04:45] I did apt-get install php5 and it installed apache2 for me [04:45] and then apt-get install mysql-server php5-curl curl [04:45] fluvvell: each ISP gets an AS number. The backbone of the internet has an entry in each backbone router for every AS. An AS means you are an autonomous part of the internet, you answer to no one. This allows you to populate GRE tables with multiple routes from to you. [04:45] twb: http://linux-ip.net/html/adv-multi-internet.html, http://kindlund.wordpress.com/2007/11/19/configuring-multiple-default-routes-in-linux/ [04:45] I haven't investigated the cost, but getting an AS these days would probably cost in the tens-of-thousands range [04:46] fluvvell: those URLs discuss the "appoximation that's over your head" approach [04:47] twb, I'm always keen to learn further. I try not to talk up my abilities, but I understand the concept of routing tables. === sixstringsg is now known as sixstringsg|away [04:47] fluvvell: you should take this to #netfilter [04:48] twb, ok. Its always good to get some advise anyway. [04:50] fluvvell: when you go there, I will tell you more [04:50] twb, thanks. === semiosis_ is now known as semiosis [07:18] hey, I need help please...

I dont want to reboot. how to refresh or update that entry in apt.conf? [10:12] jamespage: do you know why we have a karmic PPA on https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Precise/job/precise-server-ec2/ARCH=i386,REGION=us-west-2,STORAGE=instance-store,TEST=cloud-config,label=ubuntu-server-ec2-testing/3/console ? [10:13] linocisco why would a reboot be required? [10:13] Daviey: yes - the cloud-config specifies it as a manually added PPA [10:13] we don't actually care that its karmic - just that its present (proves cloud-init did its stuff) [10:14] dns53, because i have put some entries in apt.conf like proxy authentication [10:15] jamespage: I wonder, is it a good idea to use one which is outside ubuntu developers control? :) [10:15] mind you, it can't be uploaded it.. the release is EOL'd [10:16] linocisco i had assumed that it was always read when apt is used and it would be used on the fly [10:16] Daviey: feel free to raise a bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-server-ec2-testing/+filebug [10:16] its good point but low priority IMHO [10:21] dns53, no [10:22] dns53, there is no apt.conf in 10.04 LTS server version [10:23] There is no apt.conf by default, but it is honoured as soon as it is there [10:24] (only using it to change the proxy myself) [10:25] dns53, If you sort of did the same, the next time you run apt-get it is in effect (without rebooting) [10:26] that is what i have seen in the past, it will read an apt.conf first, then apt.conf.d/* then command line options to apt so it should not require anything to update [10:27] it has been a while since i had to use a proxy but it did just require updating /etc/apt/apt.conf with the settings [10:28] dns53, right. Oh and I think I confused person asking and anwering. sorry [10:28] linocisco, ^ [10:28] smb , what? [10:28] linocisco, The file is not present by default but it will get used the next time you use any apt-get command [10:29] linocisco no need to reboot, just run apt again and it will use the settings, there are also command line options where you could specify the proxy server if you want to test things before updating the config file [10:30] dns53, apt again means ?? apt-get update or what? [10:30] Or apt-get install [10:30] linocisco yes, apt-get, aptitude, synaptic etc [10:31] dns53, the error i got is "extra junk at the end of the file [10:31] " [10:32] linocisco with the config file or during a transfer? [10:32] does the line in apt.conf look like [10:33] Acquire::http::Procy "http:///"; [10:33] *Proxy [10:37] smb, I got it now [10:37] syntax error [10:37] linocisco, ok [10:37] smb, are you samba expert? [10:38] linocisco, not really. using it only a bit [10:43] who is using vbox with windows to host ubuntu server guest? [10:45] so you want to mount a windows share under ubuntu? [10:48] is your computer part of a windows domain? [10:49] dns53, no. our server is NOvell [10:49] dns53, clients are windows XP [10:50] they still exist? i thought they died with the dinosaurs [10:50] dns53, actually I want to setup ubuntu mail server and mail clients from windows will use [10:50] do you want to connect to the novell network? === ivoks_ is now known as ivoks [10:51] dns53, all clients XP are installed with Novell clients for widnows software to authenticate network drive and internet access. now [10:54] so you want the users to be able to login to email etc using their novell credentials? [10:55] dns53, no. it is to test for my own with my test users [10:56] dns53, I have only windows XP which has internet. now it hosts ubuntu server with vbox (NAT) setup. i have installed mail server role with internet site. [10:58] dns53, before I start anything, I am trying to start "ping" from host to guest and guest to host [10:58] you don't want nat you want a bridge, you can ping up the chain but not down the chain in nat [11:03] dns53, yes. I can ping from guest to host. but not host to guest [11:03] dns53, what do I do? [11:04] dns53, what type of adapter would be better or more suitable? [11:07] linocisco well you will need to set the vm to use bridge networking (other computers on the network can connect to the vm) or internal (only your computer can connect to the vm) [11:10] windows i believe you just need to shut down the vm, go to the networking config page and you should have the option of specifying the type of network [11:14] dns53, in my setup, i dont need other computers to connect to my ubuntu mail server. Just host XP's mail clients thunderbird has to connect to Guest" ubuntu server.". [11:17] linocisco so configure the network interface in virtualbox to use internal networking [11:19] ok [11:28] dns53, so , i think i should make virtualbox host only adapter on my xp and ubuntu-server's eth0 in same subnet or network. right? [11:32] linocisco i believe so, just choose an ip that does not exist on your normal network [11:33] dns53, pretty sure. thanks alot [11:35] lynxman, around - have a rabbitmq-erlang-client query for precise [11:43] btw, how to give shutdown/reboot right to normal user or first user created on ubuntu server [11:43] maning default user during installation [11:43] meaning default user [11:46] you can add a user to the admin group, sudo usermod -a -G admin username [11:50] jamespage: sorry wasn't paying attention, shoot :) [11:50] lynxman, OK; so I noticed that that rabbitmq-erlang-client is still at 2.5.0 [11:50] in precise [11:51] jamespage: hmm I sent all the packages to zul to pump them to 2.6.1 [11:51] jamespage: at the Budapest rally [11:51] jamespage: there's erlang client and stomp [11:51] lynxman, OK - looks like this one got missed - I'll take a loop [11:51] dns53, is "admin" a group name already created? [11:51] jamespage: darn [11:51] jamespage: it's on my PPA [11:51] rabbitmq-stomp FTBFS at the moment [11:51] jamespage: I'll ping zul later then [11:52] yes, the admin is the group that the first user gets that makes sudo etc work [11:52] jamespage: it'll fail if erlang-client is not there, it depends on it [11:52] yep [11:52] jamespage: I'll ping zul when he's awake and get back to you as soon as it's sync [11:53] lynxman, great - if he is busy I can upload for you [11:53] I think friday is openstack upload day!

[12:27] nah, but the fact that there is one - means it should be in the cl [12:28] Daviey: aah I see [12:30] * lynxman always pays not much attention to changelogs [12:30] Daviey, looks OK to me - just uploaded a very similar one for dahdi-linux [12:30] jamespage: yeah, you sponsored it right? [12:31] yep [12:31] * Daviey strikes that off his todo :) [12:31] Daviey: I wen't with the 3.2 mainline on oneiric due to constant CPU stalls and and kernel panics with the stock kernels... [12:31] (I filed / added to bugs.. but nothing ever came of them sadly) [12:31] Kiall: crikey, smb/apw ^^ is that news to you? [12:32] This is on a bunch of HP DL165 G7's BTW.. [12:32] Kiall: can you point me to the bug numbers please? [12:32] Kiall: are these the amd or xeon 165's ? [12:32] zul: rabbitmq-erlang-client needs an upload for 2.6.1 - lynxman has prepared - OK if I upload for him? [12:32] AMDs [12:32] Daviey, not sure which stalls and panics actually. Running the oneiric kernel without those [12:32] Kiall: there is a bug on the intel [12:33] Will see If I can dig them out.. There were a few others filed that I didn't comment on though. Probably never going to find those ones again... [12:33] Daviey, ? [12:33] jamespage: yep [12:34] Daviey, we use oneiric kernels routinely on servers, so i assume its not a generic issue [12:34] Daviey: here is one .. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/905219 [12:34] Launchpad bug 905219 in linux "Linux Kernel crash in Netfilter both in Natty (2.6.38-8-server) and oneiric(3.0.0-13-server/3.0.0-14-server) kernels" [High,Confirmed] [12:34] apw: Kiall is saying he had regular freezes with a class of HP servers on Oneiric. [12:34] Daviey, and i assume as a server person you are doing lots of testing too and would have noticed [12:34] Regular as hell ;) https://launchpadlibrarian.net/89219509/uptime-day.png [12:34] apw: I was more wondering if you had come across bugs with it. [12:34] Daviey, i am sure we arn't aware of it, unless you have been made aware and made either of us aware :/ [12:35] apw: Heh, ok.. (i don't triage incoming kernel bugs fwiw. [12:35] Daviey: Another two https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/870168 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/881968 [12:35] Launchpad bug 870168 in linux "Kernel Oops - Oneiric KVM/OpenStack triggers 'Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer deference'" [Undecided,Confirmed] [12:35] Daviey: there is a HP bug filed also I'll see if I can get that, although it's on the Intels' not the AMD [12:36] (so may be a different issue with similar symptoms) [12:36] Daviey, indeed, and nor does anyone else, there are far tooo many to get any real depth on any of them [12:36] first one seems to require netfilter involved [12:36] it's the 165's and a certain blade model [12:37] ikonia: I'm seeing those three issues on AMD 165's [12:37] yes, the issue (same symptoms) is known to HP on the intels but not the xeons [12:38] lynxman, rabbitmq-erlang-client uploaded [12:38] not on AMD I assume? anyway.. the 3.2 mainline has been rock solid for me on the same hardware. [12:39] And is this real hw? I see kvm_mmu blah in the first bugs dmesg [12:40] Yea, Its real hardware hosting KVM vms [12:44] Also - I actually know of another person who's been experiencing #905219 (the first one), but fairly infrequently and not on HP hardware.

[12:56] anybody help me to setup working email server? [12:56] linocisco: what are you not sure on ? [12:57] ikonia, i have just install ubuntu server on vbox and i chose mail server option during setup. now postfix is running at loading message [12:57] ikonia, i want to make it running mail server [12:58] linocisco: ok - so what part are you not sure about ? [12:59] i read flurdy page. too complicated [13:00] linocisco: there are plenty of guides online, It would be worth going through one of those.. Without a specific problem, IRC tends to be fairly useless :) [13:00] This one looks decent https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto [13:00] ikonia, i just want to know if I need internet to install any component to mail server [13:01] linocisco: you will need the internet to install software from the repos and updates, or use the CD to get software off the CD [13:01] ikonnia. now i just wanted to email from one user to another [13:02] can i quickly make it done in simple way ? [13:02] linocisco: ok - so you want to mail internally over the internet, or internally on the same server ? [13:02] ikonia, first only between internally [13:03] ikonia, from user1 to user2 and vice visa [13:03] linocisco: ok, so when you setup the mail server there was an option that allows you to send internet over the internet or internally, which did you select [13:04] ikonia," internet site" [13:04] linocisco: why did you select "internet" if you wanted to mail internally ? [13:04] ikonia, first i thought it might be easiler [13:04] linocisco: why ??? what reason would it be easier ? [13:05] linocisco: the whole point of that menu is to ask you what you want to do, and you select the option you need [13:05] linocisco: you wanted to "mail internally" yet you selected "mail internet", I cannot grasp how that would be thought of as an easier option than the option that did exactly what you wanted [13:06] ikonia, actually in real setup with virtual box, it is not easier to give mail access to host connected to internet from guest ubuntu server [13:06] ikonia , so should I choose dpkg-reconfigure postfix and setup again? [13:07] linocisco: to be honest, I think you need to look at what you actually want to do, then research what you need to do to set that up, then ask questions on anything you are unsure about or something that is not working [13:08] ikonia, i agree you will think so [13:08] ikonia, i want to get it done fast. i chose my final dream setup [13:09] linocisco: getting it right/secure is the priority [13:09] linocisco: getting something done "fast" as the priority for a mail server is not a good model [13:09] ikonia, i m not seting up production server now. i just want to feel myself i setup working test mail server [13:10] linocisco: again right/secure is still (in my view) what you need to focus on [13:10] anyway, it's up to you, good luck [13:11] ikonia, i wish you could suggest what to install and how to configure [13:11] New bug: #930139 in keystone (universe) "Add dbconfig support in Keystone" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/930139 [13:11] linocisco: you've been given a link [13:11] linocisco: if you want to learn how to setup a mail server, get researching rather than asking "what do I type" [13:11] ikonia, that is for internet site [13:11] linocisco: apply thought and change approach for internal [13:12] ikonia, i m linux newbie. so please kindly understand me [13:12] linocisco: I do understand you [13:13] ikonia, i run dpkg-reconfigure postfix. should I choose locally? [13:13] linocisco: apply thought process in your head. Do you want to send mail locally or over the internet ? [13:13] ikonia, it has "no config", "internet site", "internet with smart host", "locally" [13:14] ikonia, locally in meaning. but not emailing from system to root [13:14] ikonia, i want locally between two users [13:15] linocisco: root is a user, so again, think it through, do you want to send mail over the internet [13:15] ikonia, not now [13:15] linocisco: do you want "no configuration" [13:16] ikonia, just between two users at least and i can sleep well tonight [13:16] ok - I give in now [13:16] I shouldn't have to spoon feed at this level for a mail server, good luck [13:16] ikonia, if i choose no config, what do i do next? [13:17] linocisco: you don't choose that, I'm not going to help you with this. Please ask someone else [13:17] ikonia, thanks anyway [13:17] no problem, good luck [13:17] ikonia, having no physical server sucks [13:17] it makes no difference === ts2 is now known as tsimpson [13:28] what is the error "update-alternatives"warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative /usr/bin/bsd-mailx because link group mailx is broken"? === unreal_ is now known as unreal [13:45] jamespage: can I ask you a couple ipxe related questions? :) [13:48] lynxman, fire away! [13:49] jamespage: when I do the upstream merge, you told me I could do that and my changes to the debian structure in a single commit? Or do two commits but keep the package version the same? [13:50] * jamespage scratches his head [13:50] I think that you get one commit for the import of the upstream tarball [13:50] and then you have todo another for the packaging changes === MTecknol1gy is now known as MTecknology [13:51] jamespage: so two commits but keep just one package version in changelog then, right? [13:51] yes [13:51] bzr commits != changelog entries [13:52] lynxman, it might work out like that once the package gets imported to the official branch post upload [13:52] jamespage: yeah of course, I just wasn't sure what was the procedure on this one [13:52] so takes as many commits as you like on your working branch - they get flattened post upload [13:53] jamespage: fair enough, thanks :) [13:54] hi, is anybody knowledgeable in DNS that could help me configure BIND? [13:56] hi all , I am following "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto". but i have question on "Setting Postfix Support for Maildir-style Mailboxes" [13:57] when I su - fmaster, [13:57] MAIL=/home/fmaster/Maildir, [13:57] mail , I found no mail [13:59] what do I do? === bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_ [14:07] Kiall: No, it's a distro patch. [14:07] Ah - fair enough [14:07] I had thought they were distro patches too, considering they are only used by debian/rules [14:07] (a different kind of distro patch that is..) [14:09] I had figured that style of patch was used to allow for a broader range of kernel support in a single package.. with a normal patch, it always gets applied regardless of the target kernel version === stgraber_ is now known as stgraber [14:16] New bug: #898355 in swift (main) "Some scripts from "bin" are not installed" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/898355 [14:18] i got problem with netcat [14:19] netcat: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known [14:19] "netcat: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known" . what do i do?? === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-lunch [14:21] Ursinha-lunch, hello [14:23] hi all [14:23] netcat: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known [14:24] linocisco: what is the command you are trying to use with netcat? === dduffey_afk is now known as dduffey [14:25] greppy, netcat mail.mydomain.com 25 [14:26] does mail.mydomain.com exist?

[14:31] linocisco: so, can you do "ping mail.mydomain.com"? [14:31] greppy, from CLI ? [14:31] yes. [14:32] greppy, unknown host [14:32] well, there is your problem with netcat as well. [14:34] greppy, so what do I do? [14:34] greppy, actually I want to setup postfix only one local user to another [14:34] greppy, first. before I can setup internet based mail [14:35] when you installed postfix it should have asked if you wanted to be a local only mail site, if you selected that, it should work. [14:36] gre [14:39] greppy, i run dpkg-reconfigure postfix with locally [14:39] greppy, stil netcat is not working [14:39] locally it won't be listening on port 25 [14:40] because it's a local only server [14:40] greppy, so what to test if I m setting up mail server from one user to another like user1@mydomain.com to user2@mydomain.com [14:41] from a shell, "echo 'testing' | mail user2@mydomain.com" [14:41] then check the logs in /var/log/mail.* to see what happens. [14:45] greppy, "echo 'testing' | mail user2@mydomain.com" shows nothing [14:46] right. [14:46] that should end up with an email sent to user2 [14:46] greppy, if mail server setup is so difficult, let it be [14:47] greppy, i will just try how to give shutdown right to default server user [14:47] greppy, "sudo usermod -a -G admin username" doesnot work [14:48] linocisco: so the user can't do "sudo shutdown"? [14:49] greppy, yes. it said need to be root [14:49] k [14:49] is the admin group in your /etc/sudoers file? [14:50] greppy," sudo usermod -a -G admin username", admin group should exist? [14:50] sudo visudo [14:50] or, add that user to the sudo group instead of the admin group. [14:51] also, you will need to log out that user and log back in for the change to take affect, when you put a user in a new group. [14:51] greppy, i typed sudo visudo, and i found sudoers file , what to do next? [14:51] check to see if there is an 'admin' group specification [14:52] greppy, where to check? [14:52] greppy, %admin=ALL [14:52] ok, so that should wokr. [14:53] greppy, my default user is not found in that sudoers file [14:53] greppy, how to add default user to admin group ? [14:53] sudo usermod -a -G admin username is not enough?? [14:54] that adds them to the group [14:54] greppy, but i didn't see that user name in sudoer file [14:54] if you type 'id' in a shell, it should list the groups. [14:54] it won't be. [14:54] the user will be in the /etc/group file [14:55] if you don't see 'admin' in the output of 'id', then you need to log out and log back in. [14:56] greppy, i tried logout and logi n. i found my username is in the list twice [14:57] ok [14:57] so what happens when you type 'id'? does 'admin' show up as one of the groups?

[15:00] yup, so myusername is in the admin group, so 'sudo reboot' should reboot the box.
