RoyKperhaps offtopic, but has anyone seen a mobo being unable to see a pci-ex card when it's in the 16x slot? I know the card works, but maybe the mobo only allows vga cards there?10:34
brainysmurfDoes anybody know anything about mounting an afp server so that I can have www-data write to it? Specifically, I think I need to do something with the acl on the mac side, but I'm not sure what.11:41
RoyKbrainysmurf: didn't you say you had root on this server? if so, why would you use afp?11:44
brainysmurfHi RoyK, thanks for helping. I'm actually a bit confused, because my colleague is telling me that afp is a raid.11:45
RoyKis a what?11:45
brainysmurfRAID11:45
RoyKas in redundant array etc?11:45
RoyKafp is a protocol, not related to how you store data on disks11:46
brainysmurfright, there is a stack of hd below the xserve and they connect to the mac through afp11:46
RoyKyes, but the xserve doesn't store data in afp11:46
brainysmurfIt has a hd, but it's not big enough to hold what I need it for11:47
RoyKit probably uses a raid controller and HFS+11:47
=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away
RoyKAFP is an access protocol, like NFS or CIFS or even NCP11:48
brainysmurfSo xserve sees those hd as hfs just like anything else, but then serves it up as afp.11:49
RoyKyes11:49
brainysmurfIf that's the case, then why does it show it looks like a network drive on the desktop??11:49
RoyKand it can probably serve them with CIFS or NFS as well11:49
RoyKbrainysmurf: what desktop?11:50
brainysmurfthe mac desktop, it's not a hd but connected as a network share11:50
RoyKyes, that's because you use nfs or afs or something across the network to access it11:50
RoyKbut on the drives, there's no such thing as afp11:51
brainysmurfI think I need to spend some time with this xserve without my colleauge around.11:51
brainysmurfShe's confusing me.11:52
brainysmurfIf I have troot on both, what's best to share files if I need to have www-data write to it. sshfs?11:52
RoyKnfs11:54
RoyKsshfs is generally a good idea when all else fail ;)11:54
brainysmurfRoyK: xie xie (thank you in Chinese)11:55
RoyK;)11:55

randomDudei'm having some issues installing cobbler on ubuntu server 12.04 : http://dpaste.com/750253/15:41
ikonialooks like the ip command has the wrong syntax15:45
randomDudeikonia: i am unable to control that, all i did was ask apt-get install cobbler15:45
ikoniaI understand that15:45
randomDudeperhaps it's a bug with the package then15:46
ikoniapossible, or your config (eg: it reads your config and the current setup is incompatible with what it's trying to do )15:46
randomDudefirst time i tried to install cobbler on this system15:47
randomDudeikonia: nothing i do seems to make apt-get install cobbler... and google only returns results that talk about the deb package info, or things like maas not importing isos (not relelvant to me )15:58
ikoniaunpack the deb and see what the setup is trying to do and how it fails against your systems setup15:59
randomDudenot sure how to do that15:59
ikoniaget the debian source package and have look through the setup16:00
ikoniasee if the setup script is either a.) got a bug in b.) got something that conflicts with your system16:00
randomDudewhere does dpkg --unpack send its stuff ?16:02
randomDudeit's not in the folder i'm in nor is it in the folder cobbler deb was in16:02
ikoniaI'd just grab the source package16:02
randomDudecan i do that with dpkg?16:02
ikoniaapt-get source16:03
randomDudei'm not even sure what i'm supposed to be looking at, what files does apt-get use to install stuff in a package?16:04
randomDudePKG-INFO ?16:04
randomDudeyeah i have no hope of fixing this which should work by now on a LTS release16:05
ikoniathe control file should show the layout (I've not got an debian based system here to go through it)16:05
ikoniarandomDude: it may work fine on an LTS system, it may be something as simple as your machine isn't setup in line with the pre-requisits16:06
randomDudeso i guess i can't use orchestra thus i shouldn't buy a support contract from canonical if this is whats to be expected16:06
randomDudeikonia: what makes my system a "non lts system" ?16:06
ikoniarandomDude: I didn't say it wasn't an non-lts system16:06
randomDudeoh i thought you did16:07
randomDudeas in implied16:07
ikoniano, I said your system may not be setup in line with the pre-requisits for cobbler, which is why it's failing16:07
ikoniaeg: it may not be a problem with the package, more a a problem with how your system is setup16:07
ikoniaI don't know without looking16:07
randomDudei doubt it16:08
ikoniawhy do you doubt it ?16:08
randomDudei'm pretty sure the package is broken16:08
ikonia!info cobbler16:08
ubottucobbler (source: cobbler): Install server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.2-0ubuntu33 (precise), package size 36 kB, installed size 246 kB16:08
ikoniarandomDude: why are you pretty sure ?16:08
ikoniawhat research have you done to make yourself "pretty sure"16:08
randomDudebecause my server is standard?16:08
ikoniarandomDude: standard does mean you've configured it to meet the pre-requists16:08
ikoniahang on, I'll get a 12.04 machine running in a vm and test it16:09
randomDudewhy should i have to configure it? thats what i use apt-get16:09
randomDudeapt-get is suppposed to configure this stuff for me16:09
ikoniarandomDude: apt-get is a package installer not a "make my machine a certain setup"16:09
ikoniarandomDude: it will configure cobbler, sure16:09
randomDudei mean if apt-get can't configure it to the point where it at least isntalls without failing then...16:09
ikoniathen what ?16:09
randomDudewell apparently apt-get can't get it right16:09
ikoniaplease stop talking16:10
ikoniayour basing this on nothing16:10
ikoniathe package maybe broken, it may not be16:10
ikoniabut you've done no research and you're just sat there complaining16:10
ikoniaI was going to test it for you now, but I can't be bothered as you've already made your mind up so you can have a moan16:10
ikoniapackage is broken, you won't by a support contract, fair enough, move along16:10
randomDude:)16:10
randomDudeit's actually quite a shame, because cobbler installs fine on the same system when it has ubuntu server 10.10 on it.16:12
ikoniaok, it's shame, great16:12
randomDudeshouldn't it stand to reason that if it installs fine on the same system with a previous version of ubuntu and cobbler that there's now something wrong with the version of cobbler that ubunut provide for their latest lts server?16:13
ikoniano16:13
randomDudeoh ok16:13
ikoniayou've made your mind up it's broken, so find a distro that it's not broken in16:13

danchouI just bought a server and want to set it up first can someone tell me how to create a usb install disk of ubuntu server my server does not have a cd drive.

rfrittmannhi all23:46
rfrittmannI just did the HowToForge Perfect Ubuntu 12.04 server, but have some problems with it, mostly networking and DNS related.23:47
rfrittmannSome background: the laptop I'm on now is connected to a Linksys WRT54G, then out to an iiNet BOB Lite ADSL/VoIP device to the Internet. IP range from laptop to router is 192.168.2.x, while from router to ADSL is 192.168.1.x23:50
rfrittmannFrom the server (static IP 192.168.2.3) I can ping the router (192.168.2.254), but not the other side of it (192.168.1.254) and cannot connect to the Internet. The laptop I'm on now has a DHCP assigned IP from the router, and as you see, it connects fine.23:51
rfrittmannI have pointed the default gateway on the server to the router (192.168.2.254) and the router's own default gateway is the BOB Lite (192.168.1.1), and this works fine for my laptop, but not for the server.23:53
rfrittmannAny ideas why this might be?23:54
