| Kutakizukari | Is there a way to block port 22 SSH till I need to log in? I know dome9.com does this but looking for the free way if can do. | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| KM0201 | hmm, not sure | 00:10 |
| maxb | Kutakizukari: If you feel it's necessary, you could go with a port knocking approach | 00:12 |
| maxb | Alternatively, accept only pubkey-based logins, denying passwords completely, and trust that to be secure enough | 00:13 |
| Kutakizukari | was using fail2ban but the bots just grab another ip address and try again. | 00:13 |
| maxb | Possibly backed up with a fail2ban approach | 00:14 |
| Kutakizukari | is there docs on pubkey-based logins for ubuntu server 10.04 LTS? | 00:14 |
| patdk-lap | Kutakizukari, you want a knock solution probably | 00:15 |
| patdk-lap | where you hit up a special port y, and it enables access to other port x for that ip for x min | 00:15 |
| Kutakizukari | patdk-lap: never heard of it, will look it up. Thanks | 00:15 |
| patdk-lap | http://www.shorewall.net/PortKnocking.html | 00:16 |
| Kutakizukari | can port y be sniffed out to lead to port x? | 00:16 |
| Kutakizukari | will look into it, again thank you | 00:17 |
| maxb | Pubkey based SSH is a standard part of OpenSSH. I know it's described in the man pages, no idea if anyone's bothered to write customized documentation for Ubuntu; really there's little to nothing distro-specific | 00:17 |
| patdk-lap | not without someone intercepting your traffic, while you do it | 00:17 |
| maxb | !info knockd | 00:17 |
| ubottu | knockd (source: knockd): small port-knock daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5-3ubuntu1 (oneiric), package size 26 kB, installed size 168 kB | 00:17 |
| patdk-lap | odd, no need for a userbased program, as iptables can do it all itself | 00:18 |
| maxb | it can? | 00:18 |
| patdk-lap | sure | 00:18 |
| patdk-lap | the link above is almost raw iptables commands | 00:18 |
| maxb | I've never come across one iptables rule mutating the ruleset itself before | 00:19 |
| patdk-lap | I never said 1 iptables rule :) | 00:19 |
| patdk-lap | but a collection of 4 will do it, and protect against portscans | 00:19 |
| patdk-lap | if you don't care about portscans, 2 rules, the normal accept 22 and the portknock port | 00:20 |
| maxb | Interesting. I was not aware of the 'recent' module | 00:21 |
| patdk-lap | part of normal ubuntu iptables | 00:22 |
| patdk-lap | no xtables needed | 00:22 |

| kirkland | SpamapS: howdy! | 17:09 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: curious, still no apache upstart script, eh? | 17:09 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: I see no reason for there ever to be one. | 17:09 |
| SpamapS | shocking I know | 17:09 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: erm? | 17:10 |
| SpamapS | but really, apache has a rich init.d script that they maintain perfectly. | 17:10 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: okay | 17:10 |
| SpamapS | and I don't see apache ever being part of the system plumbing | 17:10 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: so, let's say I have a script that I want to run before apache starts | 17:10 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: what's the best way for me to do that? modify the apache init script itself to call me? | 17:10 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: or put myself just before them in the init.d list? | 17:11 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: start on starting rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] .. will run your script before *all* sysvinit. | 17:11 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: hmm | 17:11 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: (needs to be a 'task' too) | 17:11 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: and I need networking to be up | 17:12 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: its up | 17:12 |
| kirkland | k | 17:12 |
| SpamapS | as of 11.10 anyway | 17:12 |
| SpamapS | before that.. you never knew when networking was "up" | 17:12 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: apache is less important now anyway. Seriously, I think its day has passed. nginx will *blow your mind* how much better it is. | 17:13 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: them's strong words | 17:13 |
| SpamapS | yep | 17:13 |
| SpamapS | I haven't tried apache 2.4 yet.. | 17:13 |
| SpamapS | but nginx certainly utterly destroyed 2.2 in every way for omgubuntu.co.uk | 17:14 |
| kirkland | SpamapS: yeah, jcastro was raving about it too | 17:14 |
| SpamapS | The area where apache will win out is in mods for auth and stuff.. but many of those are making their way into nginx land as well.. so I think its only a matter of time before we see a real shift. | 17:15 |
| patdk-wk | I have 2.4 installed on percise to play with | 17:16 |
| patdk-wk | but haven't done any performance testing yet | 17:16 |
| SpamapS | kirkland: also I'm not as excited about moving every service into upstart. I think its more important that classes of services be moved there, but stuff like apache that just pops up on a port can happily stay in sysvinit land for as long as it makes sense. | 17:17 |
| patdk-wk | doesn't that run into dependancy issues? | 17:18 |
| patdk-wk | expecially if I need to make sure my fastcgi servers are running before apache | 17:19 |
| SpamapS | patdk-wk: why do you need to make sure your fastcgi servers are running before apache? | 17:21 |
| SpamapS | what if they are on another host? | 17:21 |
| SpamapS | Its a false hope to try and get all daemons started in the right order in a modern system. | 17:21 |
| patdk-wk | if they are on another host, apache will retry the connection | 17:21 |
| SpamapS | Right | 17:22 |
| patdk-wk | if you use a socket file, I think it just errors | 17:22 |
| SpamapS | and if they are local, it will retry as well. :) | 17:22 |
| patdk-wk | or maybe that was fixed | 17:22 |
| SpamapS | patdk-wk: right, fixed.. because thats a bug if it doesn't. :) | 17:22 |
| rockets | What is the official way to change the hostname of an ubuntu 10.04 server permanently? I'm seeing so much conflicting advice. I'm seeing edit /etc/hosts, create an /etc/hostname, just use the hostname command (doesn't do it). I'm not sure which I should do. | 17:22 |
| SpamapS | patdk-wk: either way, whats more important is that network clients be generous about retries and degrade themselves/report errors properly.. not that daemons are all started in the right order. | 17:23 |
| patdk-wk | rockets, lots of changes to do that :) | 17:23 |
| SpamapS | Ordering is nearly impossible in a truly distributed system. | 17:23 |
| rockets | patdk-lap, What is the "proper" way :P | 17:23 |
| patdk-wk | personally? grep -R oldname /etc/ | 17:23 |
| patdk-wk | and change every file you locate :) | 17:24 |
| patdk-wk | it's in 5 places I can think of, in a normal plain install | 17:24 |
| rockets | lol | 17:25 |
| SpamapS | rockets: the modern way is to have DHCP handing out hostnames, and change it on the DHCP server. :) | 17:25 |
| rockets | in other words, it's unmanageable :D | 17:25 |
| rockets | SpamapS, yeah well, we don't have dhcp on virtual slices on linode | 17:25 |
| SpamapS | how do they do that? do they inject /etc/network/interfaces for you or something? | 17:26 |
| SpamapS | I'm genuinely curious. | 17:26 |
| rockets | mm | 17:26 |
| patdk-wk | well, for most things, just /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname will do it | 17:26 |
| rockets | ill pastie my interfaces file for you if you're interested | 17:26 |
| patdk-wk | but then you have other configs, like mail server, xmpp server, webserver, ... | 17:26 |
| rockets | patdk-lap, yeah but nothing is configured yet | 17:26 |
| rockets | its a new host | 17:26 |
| patdk-wk | well, then you should only have to touch those two files then | 17:26 |
| patdk-wk | then reboot it | 17:27 |
| rockets | i just dont want the randomly generated string for a hostname i have | 17:27 |
| SpamapS | rockets: no thats ok, I'm just wondering how virtual providers can do it any other way. | 17:27 |
| rockets | SpamapS, actually my /etc/network/interfaces contains NOTHING other than loopback | 17:27 |
| rockets | maybe they do have some sort of internal dhcp | 17:27 |
| SpamapS | rockets: wow.. eth0 isn't even listed? | 17:27 |
| rockets | SpamapS, nope | 17:27 |
| rockets | I have no idea how they do it | 17:27 |
| rockets | its xen though | 17:27 |
| SpamapS | weird | 17:27 |
| patdk-wk | what kernel? | 17:27 |
| rockets | oh wait | 17:28 |
| SpamapS | perhaps they jiggered their own startup scripts in | 17:28 |
| rockets | im looking at the wrong server | 17:28 |
| rockets | lulz | 17:28 |
| rockets | hold on | 17:28 |
| rockets | yeah it looks like it is dhcp, "auto eth0" | 17:28 |
| rockets | iface eth0 inet dhcp | 17:28 |
| * SpamapS really hopes virtual host providers fall in line and start using the official Ubuntu cloud images instead of all this weirdness. | 17:28 | |
| rockets | i dont have ctonrol over the dhcp though | 17:28 |
| SpamapS | rockets: gotchya | 17:28 |
| rockets | SpamapS, well, this is 10.04 when they had to make their own modified kernel to make it work | 17:28 |
| rockets | because it wasnt xenified or something | 17:29 |
| SpamapS | rockets: we have 10.04 EC2 images.. EC2 == xen.. so... ? | 17:29 |
| rockets | or maybe that was for kvm | 17:29 |
| patdk-wk | ya, I use the ec2 kernel on xen | 17:29 |
| rockets | this is what slicehost told me, but im using linode now | 17:29 |
| SpamapS | meh, well anyway.. no worries. So with dhcp You may have to tell it to not overwrite your hostname | 17:29 |
| rockets | SpamapS, nah, /etc/hostname works | 17:29 |
| SpamapS | rockets: hopefully that sticks. :) | 17:30 |
| rockets | SpamapS, I just tested it. | 17:30 |
| rockets | well i suppose my lease hasn't been renewed | 17:30 |
| rockets | we'll see hehe | 17:30 |
| SpamapS | rockets: reboot would test it | 17:30 |
| rockets | SpamapS, i've rebooted several times | 17:30 |
| patdk-wk | if it doesn't, go edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf | 17:31 |
| SpamapS | rockets: alright, could you please go delete all the confusing docs you read from the intarwebs kthxbai | 17:36 |

| hallyn | jdstrand: http://paste.ubuntu.com/922334/ I assume given the comments in the code, I'm on my own with this failure? | 19:25 |
| rockets | Here's a silly question: is there a way to make all subdirectories of a directory inherit the parent's permissions when created? I tried sgid, no dice. | 19:28 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: yeah-- why qemu isn't output anything from 'info block' seems like a regression | 19:36 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: it does output for info block | 19:36 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: I'm confused | 19:36 |
| hallyn | I assumed the 'kill monitor; run nc by hand' bit was just not working | 19:37 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: if i just run qemu by hand and say 'info block', i get results | 19:37 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: but that isn't what the script is doing. it is launching it via livirt, then trying to connect to libvirt's monitor file | 19:39 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: i see, i was thinking it failed getting any output at all. but still, if i do 'info block' by hand, it works. | 19:40 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: in fact, based on the weird formatting of the error output, it looks like 'nc -U <libvirt monitor file>' failed | 19:40 |
| hallyn | on the bright side, it's the last failing case i think \o/ | 19:40 |
| hallyn | <frown> | 19:41 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: there is a timeout there-- I know I can't run test-qemu.py on a heavily loaded system. maybe the your system was under high load? | 19:41 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: hm, ok, i'll try again then, thanks. | 19:41 |

| gary_poster | zul or adam_g, I've got an openstack question if one of you have a moment. For Canonistack, I want the publicDnsName and privateDnsName to have a *.canonistack domain suffix rather than a *.novalocal domain suffix. That way, with a bit more configuration on chinstrap, devs can set up a .ssh/config stanza that makes everything just work (particularly nice for juju). AFAICT, that's controlled on the Openstack side | 20:27 |
| gary_poster | by nova.network.linux_net's dhcp_domain value, so I asked IS to make that change, along with the resolution bits on chinstrap. They've done so, and I've tested, and things are not quite working as I hoped yet. The change does make the vm correctly report its hostname as, for instance, server-8275.canonistack, but publicDnsName and privateDnsName now have no suffix at all, for instance reported as simply "server-82 | 20:27 |
| gary_poster | 75" by euca-describe-instances. Is there another openstack setting we can make to get those values to report the *.canonistack names, or is this an openstack bug, or can you suggest some other path to try to find out the answer? | 20:27 |

| jcastro | no clue, I've only done rudimentary set up with it | 20:44 |
| hggdh | heh | 20:44 |
| * hggdh goes for the reinstall | 20:44 | |
| jcastro | wait! | 20:44 |
| jcastro | we should figure that out | 20:44 |
| * hggdh waits | 20:44 | |
| === Arc__ is now known as a5m0 | ||
| hggdh | jcastro: another thing -- I installed maas-dhcp, and nothing changed in the dnsmasq config | 20:45 |
| hggdh | at least visibly | 20:45 |
| jcastro | hggdh: no clue that one either, but here's the first one: http://askubuntu.com/questions/120436/how-do-i-reset-my-maas-username-password | 20:46 |
| jcastro | matsubara: any idea? ^^ | 20:46 |
| hggdh | jcastro: will follow the Q, thanks | 20:47 |
| jcastro | "maas changepassword" seems to exist | 20:47 |
| hggdh | jcastro: and... it works! -- it does change the password without requiring to enter a current one | 20:48 |
| matsubara | hggdh, jcastro: you can flush the db and create a new password | 20:48 |
| hggdh | (pretty much like sudo passwd xyz) | 20:49 |
| matsubara | well, I guess that's even easier :-) | 20:49 |
| jcastro | ah but how do you list users? | 20:49 |
| jcastro | without dumping the whole db I think? | 20:49 |
| hggdh | yeah, adding an answer to askubuntu now | 20:51 |
| hggdh | just a sec | 20:51 |
| * jcastro nods | 20:51 | |
| matsubara | jcastro, not very easy but you can do something like this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/922456/ | 20:52 |
| jcastro | hggdh: ^^ good enough for an answer for now, heh | 20:53 |
| hggdh | matsubara: better than 'sudo dumpdata |grep username' | 20:53 |
| hggdh | wich is what I used | 20:53 |
| hggdh | jcastro: I will edit the answer to add super-matsubara's way of finding an user | 20:54 |
| Daviey | hola | 20:54 |
| Daviey | How is everyone? | 20:54 |
| guntbert | Daviey: welcome - do have a support question? | 20:57 |
| guntbert | *do you have ... | 20:57 |
| Daviey | guntbert: I hadn't, no.. do you? | 20:58 |
| smoser | utlemming, any ideas here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/922462/ | 20:58 |
| smoser | that is from a us-east-1 instance | 20:59 |
| smoser | freaking slow | 20:59 |
| guntbert | Daviey: no, are you aware that this channel is not intended for chatter? If yes - my apologies | 20:59 |
| zul | lol | 20:59 |
| hggdh | Daviey: you got no support question?? | 20:59 |
| jcastro | he should be kicked out! | 21:00 |
| hggdh | LOL | 21:00 |
| utlemming | smoser: cloud-front? | 21:00 |
| zul | Daviey: you are the weakest link good bye | 21:00 |
| * sw hands Daviey the AK47 | 21:00 | |
| Daviey | guntbert: Are you sure this channel isn't for chatter? | 21:01 |
| smoser | utlemming, just a download from cloud-images.ubutnuc.om | 21:02 |
| * guntbert tries hard to get his foot out of his big mouth :-) | 21:02 | |
| utlemming | smoser: I'm checking from eu-west-1 right now | 21:02 |
| hggdh | oooohhh Daviey gains superpowers, and kills self | 21:03 |
| utlemming | smoser: I get pretty decent internet (15Mb/s) and I pull the images this morning at around 200k, so I am wondering if its crossing that small puddle in between New York and the UK | 21:04 |
| smoser | well, normally i think its better than that. | 21:05 |
| smoser | i'mi using lftp and pget now | 21:06 |
| guntbert | Daviey: to answer your last question: according to the /topic I should be sure - listening to some of the regulars here I get doubts :) | 21:06 |
| patdk-wk | utlemming, the speed is kind of iffy | 21:06 |
| patdk-wk | some days I can get 2-8MB/sec, others I'm happy to even get 100k | 21:06 |
| utlemming | smoser: 7.0MB/s in Eeu-west-1 | 21:06 |
| smoser | utlemming, well... | 21:07 |
| smoser | i have strong suspicion that you can't really trust that. | 21:07 |
| smoser | that things get cached. | 21:07 |
| smoser | ie, if you had run that 2 times, magically the second would be faster. | 21:07 |
| utlemming | So we need a European to test my theory | 21:09 |
| * patdk-wk builds one | 21:10 | |
| Daviey | utlemming: I am a European ! | 21:11 |
| hggdh | no, you are English... | 21:11 |
| patdk-wk | swallow? | 21:11 |
| utlemming | Daviey: Can you do "wget http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/server/precise/20120409/precise-server-cloudimg-amd64.tar.gz -O /dev/null" and report the time that it took? | 21:12 |
| Daviey | utlemming: European datacentre or homeish adsl? | 21:12 |
| utlemming | Daviey: which ever one is less-likely to implement caching and if the DC isn't Canonical or Amazon, that might be the best benchmark | 21:13 |
| Daviey | utlemming: Non-Canonial or Amazon, Downloaded: 2 files, 211M in 19s (11.1 MB/s) | 21:14 |
| patdk-wk | that all? | 21:15 |
| patdk-wk | 2012-04-09 17:15:09 (11.8 MB/s) ashburn,va | 21:15 |
| patdk-wk | 2012-04-09 17:16:43 (6.04 MB/s) comcast (maryland) home | 21:17 |
| utlemming | smoser: my home slowness is due to a 62% packet loss thanks to L3 | 21:18 |
| RoyK | L3? | 21:22 |
| sw | Daviey: utilised /kick over my AK47! :< | 21:22 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: ok, it's simpler than i thought | 21:23 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: the _stop_daemon() just does killall -9 libvirt-bin | 21:23 |
| hallyn | upstart respawns it :) | 21:23 |
| hallyn | hm, no | 21:23 |
| hallyn | ok, i need to figure out why it's not going away,b ut second part was, | 21:24 |
| hallyn | the monitor isnow json | 21:24 |
| hallyn | so 'info block' will give back errors regardless | 21:24 |
| jdstrand | oh, that would do it :\ | 21:25 |
| jdstrand | annoying | 21:25 |
| hallyn | yes | 21:28 |
| hallyn | jdstrand, but wait... courtesy of our dberrange, | 21:30 |
| hallyn | virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp qatest-i386 'info block' | 21:30 |
| SpamapS | smoser: back from long lunch.. looking now | 21:30 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: oh, easy enough-- then on release >= 12.04 pass '--hmp' | 21:31 |
| hallyn | yup :) | 21:32 |
| RoyK | jdstrand: I first read --hmp as something like --hrmpff! | 21:57 |
| jdstrand | RoyK: hehe | 22:08 |
| ideaman | Anyone: I'm scripting an install in Ubuntu, and having some issues matching a string with sed. Any takers? | 22:22 |
| SpamapS | ideaman: just ask, and hang out for a while. Some people read backscroll :) | 22:24 |
| ideaman | k | 22:24 |
| SpamapS | ideaman: also askubuntu.com and serverfault.com are good places as well | 22:24 |
| ideaman | cool thanks | 22:24 |
| Patrickdk | the question, we will never know | 22:25 |
| ideaman | I'm trying to replace lines 7 and 11 with new text via sed, so I have sed -i 's/old text/new text/7' but anything I try never works... | 22:26 |
| ideaman | the best I can get is a global replace /g, which I don't want | 22:26 |
| Patrickdk | seems odd way to do it | 22:27 |
| ideaman | I'm up for any suggestions | 22:27 |
| Patrickdk | '7 c \New line here' | 22:28 |
| ideaman | Patrickdk: thanks a million, that's so much easier | 22:32 |
| smoser | SpamapS, tgt ? | 22:32 |
| SpamapS | smoser: still reading | 22:32 |

| locuse | hi. i'm putting my 1st ubuntu-servers into production. i'd like to configure critical-power event recovery (effectively, yank the power cord in mid operation ...) so that after power recovery, the server automatically powers up, trying a maximum of "5" times if unsuccessful. BIOS is involved, i'd guess, but what are the appropriate pieces on a headless Ubuntu server? | 22:38 |
| Patrickdk | locuse, you would need a bios to do that | 22:43 |
| Patrickdk | well really probably a bmc | 22:44 |
| Patrickdk | and the ones I have only let you do it 3 times, not less, and not more | 22:44 |
| Patrickdk | and it requires some kind of os watchdog program | 22:44 |
| Patrickdk | and the amount of time that os watchdog program checks in, is fixed | 22:44 |
| Patrickdk | I normally turned those things off, cause the bios couldn't boot fast enough, before it would timeout, let along the os starting up | 22:44 |
| locuse | Patrickdk: "bmc"? | 22:45 |
| Patrickdk | yep | 22:45 |
| locuse | acronymitis .... ah, that's Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) | 22:46 |
| locuse | hm. one'd think this'd be a bit more straighforward . | 22:47 |
| SpamapS | smoser: I have not forgotten you on tgt.. | 22:51 |
| SpamapS | smoser: that upstart job is *really* really wrong. | 22:57 |
| SpamapS | smoser: that said, the reason tgt is not started on install is that the postinst does not start it | 22:58 |
| SpamapS | smoser: dh_installinit --no-start -u"start 89 2 3 4 5 . stop 11 1 ." | 22:58 |
| SpamapS | smoser: which is intentional | 22:59 |
| SpamapS | smoser: remove the args to dh_installinit and that will be fixed | 23:00 |
| SpamapS | smoser: also the stop on is wrong. | 23:00 |
| SpamapS | as is the start on actually | 23:00 |
| miceiken_ | How do I make my ubuntu server obtain the correct time and date? | 23:09 |
| SpamapS | miceiken_: install the 'ntp' package | 23:10 |
| SpamapS | miceiken_: note that ntp will refuse to change the time/date by a large amount (it will just keep the time accurate), so you may *also* want to install 'ntpdate' and force it in while ntp is not running. | 23:11 |
| miceiken_ | i just did an "ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com" | 23:11 |
| miceiken_ | what about timezones though, does it figure that out by itself? | 23:12 |
| SpamapS | miceiken_: you need to set your timezone during install, but yes, NTP always communicates with NTP servers in UTC | 23:23 |
| smoser | SpamapS, so how bad is it that that doesn't start ? | 23:25 |
| smoser | and how, if you dpeend on it, should you start it ? | 23:25 |
| SpamapS | smoser: it affects all users, but has a workaround (manually start it) so I'd call it Medium. | 23:26 |
| smoser | well, as you said, its by design. | 23:26 |
| SpamapS | smoser: for something that Depends: tgt .. they can workaround by making sure it is started. But I'd think at that point.. just make it start. | 23:26 |
| SpamapS | its not so much by design.. | 23:26 |
| SpamapS | as by the way its always been | 23:26 |
| SpamapS | policy suggests that if there is a sane default configuration, a daemon should be started on installation | 23:27 |
| SpamapS | not knowing tgt, I can't answer whether that if is true or not | 23:27 |
| miceiken_ | wow how do I not know this | 23:29 |
| miceiken_ | how do I output the time | 23:29 |
| miceiken_ | from the server | 23:29 |
| RoyK | date | 23:29 |
| miceiken_ | great, thanks RoyK | 23:30 |
| miceiken_ | and thank you SpamapS, my time is all syncronized now :) | 23:30 |
| RoyK | date +%H:%M | 23:30 |
| RoyK | for instance | 23:30 |
| smoser | SpamapS, the daemon will start, will listen on a standard port, and have no targets if queried. | 23:32 |
| smoser | so, for my limited knowledge, that is a sane default | 23:32 |
| SpamapS | smoser: agreed. Thats probably a bug worth fixing in precise.. whether we do it b4 release or not.. I dunno ;) | 23:48 |
| smoser | well, personally, id say if its not fixed before release, then its not fixed in precise. | 23:52 |
| smoser | bug 977621 | 23:52 |
