Kilos | but there are ways with windows to repair mbr and boot sector from the cd as well | 16:33 |
Alphaguyy | hmm | 16:33 |
Kilos | with xp you boot to command prompt | 16:34 |
Alphaguyy | this guys pc has a virus i suspect coz once i log in loads settings and then nothing | 16:34 |
Kilos | then type in /fixmbr then /fixboot | 16:35 |
Alphaguyy | i usn live cd to browse the drive only for backup so i can do fresh install | 16:35 |
Kilos | they can be repaired normally | 16:35 |
Kilos | and run avast antivirus | 16:36 |

nlsthzn | night shift | 18:31 |
Kilos | eish | 18:31 |
nicom | I cant get in from xchat it bannes me every time | 18:31 |
Kilos | spose if you dont work you dont eat hey | 18:31 |
nicom | is there a secret to that? | 18:31 |
Kilos | nicom, what seems to be the prob | 18:31 |
Kilos | you have to set it up | 18:32 |
nicom | i am on web page | 18:32 |
nicom | xchat no work | 18:32 |
Kilos | do you have xchat installed nicom ? | 18:32 |
nicom | how | 18:32 |
nicom | yes | 18:32 |
Kilos | you are on ubuntu hey? | 18:32 |
nicom | yes 12:04 | 18:32 |
Kilos | ok lets do it step for step | 18:33 |
Kilos | i gotta open and look what to do | 18:33 |
Banlam | nicom, what is the exact message you get when you try connect? | 18:33 |
Kilos | ok. the first little window you open | 18:33 |
nicom | 1 min | 18:33 |
nicom | * Closing Link: iburst-41-213-52-59.iburst.co.za (*** Banned ) | 18:34 |
nicom | ok | 18:34 |
Banlam | and that's when you try connect to the server | 18:34 |
Kilos | scroll to freenode | 18:34 |
Banlam | not to achannel? | 18:34 |
Kilos | yip | 18:34 |
Kilos | tick on freenode and then tick edit on the right | 18:35 |
nicom | * Connected. Now logging in... * *** Looking up your hostname... * *** Checking Ident * *** Found your hostname * *** No Ident response * You are banned from this server- Your host is an open proxy (HTTP CONNECT (Mikrotik-style) (8080)). Email proxyscan@freenode.net when corrected. (2012/4/19 19.52) * Closing Link: iburst-41-213-52-59.iburst.co.za (*** Banned ) * Disconnected (Remote host closed socket). | 18:35 |
Kilos | oh im running ahead sorry | 18:36 |
nicom | it starts automatically | 18:36 |
nicom | freenode is selected | 18:36 |
Kilos | you gotta make it open to that first window first | 18:36 |
nlsthzn | seems like a banned account | 18:36 |
Banlam | is this relavent: http://askubuntu.com/questions/14845/unable-to-connect-to-freenode-because-of-open-proxy | 18:37 |
Kilos | it mustnt start auto till you have it set up | 18:37 |
Kilos | ah could be Banlam | 18:37 |
nicom | how do I unstart it | 18:38 |
Kilos | most likely need to tell it to go irc.freenode.net/8001 | 18:39 |
nicom | ok what password do you use? | 18:39 |
Kilos | you need to uninstall and also remove the settings etc in home | 18:39 |
nicom | I got it to not start automatically | 18:40 |
Kilos | you register your nic and set password at irc | 18:40 |
Kilos | right | 18:40 |
nicom | now edit it | 18:40 |
Kilos | then tick freenode once | 18:40 |
Kilos | then edit | 18:40 |
Kilos | you too fast for me | 18:41 |
nicom | how register | 18:41 |
nicom | how register ? url ? | 18:41 |
Banlam | you have to be connected to the server | 18:41 |
Banlam | via an irc client | 18:41 |
Banlam | to register an account | 18:41 |
Banlam | but that's not necessary | 18:41 |
Banlam | did you have a look at that link I jsut posted? | 18:41 |
Banlam | that may be your problem | 18:42 |
Kilos | but you should get here with xchat before you even register | 18:42 |
nicom | connecting to freenode banns me | 18:42 |
Kilos | Banlam, is it a 12.04 prob you think? | 18:43 |
Banlam | err.. couldn't say | 18:43 |
nicom | connecting to freenode baned me | 18:43 |
Banlam | the post is from nov 2010... | 18:43 |
Banlam | so | 18:43 |
Kilos | dont just connect | 18:43 |
=== Kerbero[afk] is now known as Kerbero | ||
nicom | looking | 18:44 |
Kilos | what have you got in the channel box | 18:44 |
nicom | I am using miktotik | 18:44 |
nicom | I am using miktotik router | 18:44 |
Kilos | and untick the connect automatically tick box | 18:44 |
Kerbero | *mikrotik?\ | 18:44 |
Banlam | nicom, what client are you currently using? | 18:44 |
nicom | done | 18:44 |
Banlam | nicom, can you open a terminal, and type the following " rpm -q squid " and tell me what output you get? | 18:45 |
nicom | xchat | 18:46 |
Banlam | nicom, no, what i mean is how are you chatting to us now, if you can't get xchat to connect to freenode? | 18:47 |
Kilos | in the top block do you see irc.freenode.net/8001 | 18:47 |
nicom | The program 'rpm' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install rpm | 18:47 |
Banlam | nicom, ok, nvrmdn | 18:47 |
nicom | i am using the web page form | 18:48 |
Banlam | nicom, ok | 18:48 |
nicom | http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-za | 18:48 |
Banlam | gtg, good luck, hope Kilos can help | 18:49 |
Kilos | toods Banlam | 18:49 |
Kilos | ok nicom you got the first window open still/ | 18:49 |
Kilos | ? | 18:49 |
nicom | did you need something special to work IRC? | 18:49 |
nicom | did you need something special to work IRC? settings , password | 18:50 |
Kilos | no xchat goes straight in if setup right | 18:50 |
Kilos | nope i came on here before i registered anything | 18:50 |
nicom | ok I may need to open port 8081 | 18:50 |
nicom | ok I may need to open port 8081 in mikrotik | 18:50 |
Kilos | you can add the passwords later once you got this working | 18:50 |
nicom | but how did it respond to me? | 18:51 |
Kilos | i dunno what went wrong there. need a clever guy to figure that out | 18:52 |
nlsthzn | my two cents worth... it isn't a ports issue because the client is able to connect to the server... the error account banned needs some investigating and fixing... carry on... | 18:52 |
nicom | ok i will uninstall it and try again | 18:52 |
Kilos | dont forget to remove any xchat files in home | 18:52 |
Kilos | or it will keep doing the same thing | 18:52 |
Kilos | nlsthzn, im dom with the ports bit. do we use different ports? | 18:53 |
Kilos | mine shows 8001 | 18:53 |
nlsthzn | it isn't a ports issue but I use 6667 | 18:54 |
Kilos | oh my | 18:54 |
Kilos | nicom, what else do you see in the top servers for freenode block? | 18:55 |
Kilos | nlsthzn, what decides what port is used | 18:56 |
Kilos | for interests sake | 18:56 |
nlsthzn | well for me port 8001 isn't open (ISP blocked it I think)... but the IRC server decides what ports it will use... for freenode it is 8001 and 6667 AFAIK | 18:57 |
Kilos | it should be done automatically hey? | 18:57 |
nicom | I uninstalled it and its still there | 18:57 |
nlsthzn | did you guys check the link that Banlam_ posted earlier? | 18:58 |
nicom | I get the option to install but its there | 18:58 |
Kilos | nicom, did you remove the xchat folder in home? | 18:58 |
Kilos | nicom, do you have aptitude installed? | 18:58 |
nicom | now its removing | 18:58 |
nicom | aptitude ? | 19:00 |
Kilos | like apt-get but better | 19:00 |
nlsthzn | not | 19:00 |
nicom | dont know doe ubuntu come with it | 19:00 |
nlsthzn | :p | 19:00 |
nicom | ok | 19:01 |
Kilos | sudo apt-get install aptitude | 19:01 |
nicom | is it needed? | 19:01 |
Kilos | it works great for installing and uninstalling etc | 19:01 |
Kilos | and more user friendly | 19:02 |
nicom | I ma gettint the same problem | 19:02 |
nicom | I re-installed | 19:03 |
nicom | should i try xchant gnome | 19:03 |
Kilos | have you got aptitude now | 19:03 |
Kilos | the gnome one sucks imo | 19:03 |
Kilos | you havent got rif of the config files i think | 19:04 |
Kilos | *rid | 19:04 |
nicom | adding it | 19:04 |
nlsthzn | problem is with using open proxy and freenode not accepting it... nothing wrong with xchat | 19:04 |
Kilos | ah can you help nlsthzn ? | 19:04 |
nicom | is apttude a gui? | 19:04 |
Kilos | no its command line/terminal | 19:05 |
nicom | nlsrn? | 19:05 |
nlsthzn | nicom: are you running any type of proxy software? | 19:06 |
nicom | I like GUI as my memory is weak too many commands to remember | 19:06 |
nicom | no I have a mikrotik router connected to my iBurst via PPPOE | 19:07 |
Kilos | yeah but at times cli works better methinks | 19:07 |
nlsthzn | it seems the problem is with the router.... | 19:08 |
nicom | cli ? | 19:08 |
Kilos | command line interface | 19:08 |
Kilos | terminal | 19:08 |
nicom | ok I will google it | 19:08 |
Kilos | nicom, one sec first | 19:09 |
Kilos | when you removed xchat did you remove the folder in home before installing again | 19:09 |
nlsthzn | http://www.experts-exchange.com/Networking/Misc/Q_27500503.html seems to have the answer but I am not subscribed there so it won't show it to me :/ | 19:09 |
nlsthzn | ... however seeing as you all seem hell bent on re-installing a working client I will leave you to it ;) | 19:10 |
nicom | no | 19:10 |
nicom | whick folder | 19:10 |
Kilos | nlsthzn, you help i know niks about routers | 19:10 |
Kilos | in your home directory | 19:10 |
Kilos | scroll down you will see something with xchat | 19:11 |
Kilos | maybe 2xchat | 19:11 |
Kilos | i go see | 19:11 |
nlsthzn | Kilos: I don't either in this case... but that is where the issue is | 19:11 |
nlsthzn | might want to try #freenode | 19:12 |
Kilos | .xchat2 its called | 19:12 |
Kilos | xchat doesnt often give issues | 19:12 |
Kilos | nlsthzn, is 12.04 same as maverick when it comes to home? | 19:13 |
nlsthzn | yup | 19:14 |
Kilos | whew | 19:14 |
nlsthzn | still gnome... even if it is a new one | 19:14 |
Kilos | was worried there for a bit | 19:14 |
nlsthzn | :) | 19:14 |
Kilos | lol | 19:14 |
nicom | I will ask my coleague quintin beukes he kknows ubuntu and mikrotik I might fotgut somthin | 19:15 |
nicom | thanks all for help | 19:15 |
Kilos | nicom, lets work through it slowly | 19:15 |
nicom | I hope to see some of U at ubuttu launch party pretoris | 19:16 |
nicom | I hope to see some of U at ubuttu launch party pretoria | 19:16 |
nicom | ok kilos | 19:16 |
Kilos | have you found the folder in home | 19:17 |
nicom | looking | 19:17 |
nicom | oh in home | 19:17 |
Kilos | yeah | 19:17 |
Kerbero | nicom: do you have winbox? | 19:18 |
Kilos | some times you have to tell it to show hidden folders | 19:18 |
inetpro | nicom: Your host is an open proxy | 19:18 |
inetpro | that is the problem | 19:18 |
Kilos | hi inetpro you are just in time | 19:18 |
inetpro | looks to me like a microtik misconfiguration | 19:18 |
Kerbero | the webproxy on the mikrotik is just running | 19:19 |
Kerbero | and not denying external ip's | 19:19 |
nicom | sudo rm .chat2 | 19:19 |
inetpro | s/microtik/mikrotik/ | 19:19 |
nicom | ? ok to | 19:19 |
Kilos | sec nicom here what inetpro and Kerbero say | 19:20 |
Kilos | inetpro, can you help him sort it | 19:20 |
Kilos | ? | 19:20 |
nicom | I seem to remembet I had to open port 8080 | 19:20 |
nicom | maybe i need 8001 | 19:20 |
Kerbero | no | 19:21 |
nicom | I worked irc before with older ubunu | 19:21 |
inetpro | Make sure that your proxy is NOT a Open Proxy | 19:21 |
Kerbero | there is absolutely no reason to open ports for outgoing connections | 19:21 |
Kerbero | nicom: Winbox | 19:21 |
inetpro | eg: Your host is an open proxy (HTTP CONNECT (Mikrotik-style) (8080)) | 19:22 |
inetpro | oops | 19:22 |
inetpro | eg: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/How_to_Block_Websites_%26_Stop_Downloading_Using_Proxy | 19:22 |
nicom | I dont set proxy server I have raw internet via firewl in mikrotik | 19:22 |
Kerbero | ai | 19:22 |
inetpro | I don't know Mikrotik stuff so can't realy help | 19:22 |
Kerbero | ek kan nie mense help as hulle nie wil luister nie | 19:22 |
inetpro | but you certainly don't want an open proxy | 19:23 |
nicom | hoe | 19:23 |
Kerbero | ek ken mikrotik redelik goed, maar as hy nie eers weet wat winbox is nie is daar nie veel hoop nie | 19:23 |
inetpro | it will be exploited! | 19:23 |
Kilos | patience Kerbero we were all chatting together | 19:23 |
Kilos | its kinda stressfull at times | 19:23 |
Kerbero | nicom: how do you configure you router? | 19:24 |
nicom | I need my windows laptop to winbox | 19:24 |
nicom | this is ubuntu | 19:24 |
Kerbero | you can do it via wine too | 19:24 |
Kerbero | but ok | 19:24 |
Kerbero | do you have your windows laptop at hand? | 19:24 |
nicom | I did it a year ago | 19:25 |
Kerbero | hmm | 19:25 |
Kerbero | let's see | 19:25 |
nicom | from my windows laptop I had a lot of problems and sent files to mikrotik | 19:25 |
Kerbero | you do know the login details of your router? | 19:25 |
nicom | they sent me commands to do | 19:26 |
inetpro | What is an open proxy? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_proxy | 19:26 |
Kerbero | nicom: ok i'll try the most common one quickly | 19:26 |
Kerbero | in a terminal type: | 19:26 |
Kerbero | telnet 192.168.88.1 | 19:27 |
nicom | I used my windows compouter | 19:27 |
nlsthzn | thanks to inetpro and Kerbero for coming to the rescue with their 1337 skills | 19:27 |
Kerbero | does anything happen? | 19:27 |
nicom | my network is 10.154.2.1 | 19:27 |
Kerbero | ok use that ip then | 19:27 |
* Kilos agrees with nlsthzn | 19:27 | |
nicom | let me tryu | 19:27 |
inetpro | heh | 19:27 |
Kilos | horses for courses | 19:28 |
inetpro | Running an open proxy is a high risk for the server operator; providing an anonymous proxy server can cause real legal troubles to the owner. | 19:30 |
nicom | I cant remember paswd | 19:30 |
Kerbero | blank | 19:30 |
inetpro | Such services are frequently used to break into foreign computer systems... | 19:30 |
inetpro | etc, etc, | 19:31 |
nicom | I feel guilty I have wasted your time | 19:31 |
nicom | I will shut down this laptop | 19:31 |
nicom | opem windows laptop and setup mikrotik | 19:31 |
inetpro | hmm... | 19:31 |
Kerbero | if you do manage to log in | 19:31 |
inetpro | nicom: don't feel guilty | 19:31 |
nicom | what port to open ? | 19:32 |
Kerbero | no | 19:32 |
Kilos | no nicom fix it and listen to inetpro and Kerbero | 19:32 |
inetpro | we've all been there | 19:32 |
Kerbero | go to the ip in your browser | 19:32 |
Kerbero | and click on download winbox | 19:32 |
Kilos | they will steer you right | 19:32 |
Kerbero | then log in with winbox | 19:32 |
Kerbero | then | 19:32 |
Kerbero | write this down | 19:32 |
inetpro | just don't expect to learn everything in one day | 19:32 |
nicom | i cant log in kant rememeber passwwowrd | 19:32 |
nicom | ok | 19:33 |
Kerbero | go to "IP" in the menu | 19:33 |
Kerbero | then "Web Proxy" | 19:33 |
inetpro | and don't be afraid to make mistakes, see it as a lesson | 19:33 |
Kerbero | click on "Web Proxy Settings" | 19:33 |
Kerbero | and deselect "enabled" | 19:33 |
Kerbero | if stuff breaks, just go and enable it again | 19:33 |
Kerbero | if you really can't remember the password, you will need to reset the router | 19:34 |
Kerbero | and set everyting up again | 19:34 |
nicom | ok will do unenambled prodxy | 19:34 |
Kerbero | good luck | 19:34 |
nicom | thanks | 19:34 |
nicom | ok no I swop machines | 19:34 |
nicom | thanks for help | 19:34 |
Kilos | nicom, is xchat not working on win and ubuntu? | 19:35 |
Kilos | 2 machines? | 19:35 |
Kilos | hi magespawn | 19:35 |
nicom | Iits license expired on windows | 19:36 |
Kilos | what licence | 19:36 |
inetpro | Kilos: let him just fix one thing at a time, I think it is more important to get the open proxy sorted first | 19:36 |
nicom | ok see U later | 19:36 |
Kilos | ya inetpro | 19:36 |
inetpro | nicom: you're welcome | 19:36 |
nicom | do I ask iBurst to open the prooxy? | 19:37 |
nicom | ok C U later | 19:37 |
inetpro | eish! Hope he comes right. | 19:38 |
Kilos | shame, i think he is getting flustered | 19:38 |
inetpro | I don't know how he uses mikrotik with iburst | 19:38 |
Kilos | sorry if i interfered | 19:38 |
inetpro | Kilos: np | 19:38 |
Kilos | i dont even know what mikrotik is | 19:38 |
Kerbero | i guess the mikrotik is his NAT | 19:39 |
magespawn | Howdy all | 19:40 |
nlsthzn | mikrotik router | 19:40 |
inetpro | as far as I'm aware mikrotik devices are typically used for big wireless networks | 19:41 |
Kerbero | generally yes | 19:41 |
Kerbero | but routerOS is quite good for non-wireless stuff too | 19:41 |
inetpro | ok | 19:41 |
Kerbero | mikrotik is top of the range consumer class | 19:41 |
inetpro | cool | 19:41 |
Kerbero | i put cisco right above it | 19:42 |
Kerbero | well | 19:42 |
Kerbero | the cheapest ciscos | 19:42 |
* inetpro wonders why they built it so that you can only administer with a windows technology (winbox) | 19:45 | |
Kerbero | well | 19:45 |
Kerbero | as i said it works perfectly in wine | 19:45 |
nlsthzn | at least my cisco only needs a broweser | 19:45 |
Kerbero | and it is only a gui for exactly what one can do via telnet/ssh | 19:46 |
Kerbero | o0 | 19:46 |
Kerbero | nlsthzn: that is not a good thing | 19:46 |
inetpro | Kerbero: true, I can't say I've never tried it | 19:46 |
Kerbero | *not necessarily | 19:46 |
inetpro | but they should build a gui linux client | 19:46 |
nlsthzn | not sure about good but it is easy | 19:46 |
Kerbero | linux users would just use the cli | 19:47 |
Kerbero | as it is easier to script and put the settings on 100's of routers | 19:47 |
inetpro | as much as I hate to say this, sometimes a gui can be better | 19:47 |
Kerbero | yes | 19:47 |
magespawn | Easier for noobs too | 19:48 |
Kerbero | i do configure my mikrotik's with the gui | 19:48 |
nlsthzn | \o/ | 19:48 |
inetpro | I have seen the winbox interface and it seems fairly easy to use, and effective on top of that | 19:48 |
Kerbero | i normally say that if there is a routing rule you can think of, routeros(mikrotik) can do it | 19:48 |
Kerbero | :P | 19:49 |
Kerbero | i have done some routing on mine that is impossible with iptables | 19:49 |
inetpro | Kerbero: ahh, I guess the scripting solution answers the question | 19:49 |
Kerbero | anyway, enough of mikrotik | 19:49 |
Kerbero | just remember to buy mikrotik for all your wifi :P | 19:50 |
inetpro | :-) | 19:50 |
Kilos | hehe | 19:50 |
Kerbero | the entire ctwug and ptwug runs on them afaik | 19:50 |
Kilos | thanks for coming in to help guys | 19:50 |
inetpro | Kerbero: so what else do you have up your sleeves this evening if you don't want to talk about mikrotik? | 19:51 |
Kerbero | i'm tired of sitting in front of my computer | 19:51 |
inetpro | ahh | 19:51 |
inetpro | +1 | 19:51 |
Kilos | bedtime for ballies | 19:52 |
Kilos | night all sleep tight | 19:52 |
inetpro | Kilos: good night | 19:52 |
magespawn | Night Kilos | 19:52 |
Kerbero | night | 19:53 |
magespawn | Night all | 21:50 |
