| charlvn | guten morgen alle lookenspeepers | 08:20 |
| mazal | Watse goed ? | 08:29 |
| bakuman | goeie more | 08:30 |
| charlvn | mazal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blinkenlights | 08:34 |
| charlvn | hi bakuman | 08:34 |
| bakuman | hi! | 08:34 |
| inetpro | charlvn: lookenspeepers? | 10:10 |
| inetpro | Blinkenlights? hmm... | 10:12 |
| mazal | Does anyone know what could cause Samba to be VERY slow. Copies at only 300 to 800kb/s on 100mb/s lan ? | 10:16 |
| mazal | I can't find the cause and tried the buffer settings thing , but nothing helps | 10:16 |
| mazal | I tested with iperf and the test gets 9.3mb/s speed. Also my apache speed is fine. So it seems to be related to samba only | 10:17 |
| mazal | Working on some more info , just trying to find my post on the forum | 10:27 |
| mazal | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1984691&page=2 | 10:28 |
| mazal | The relevant stuff is from post nr 20 | 10:28 |
| mazal | Post nr 18 actually | 10:30 |
| superfly | mazal: firstly, that's 100 megaBITS per second, not BYTES | 10:35 |
| superfly | secondly, are you copying to or from a Windows box? | 10:35 |
| mazal | Superfly I know | 10:43 |
| mazal | I should get at least 9mb/s , not 300kb/s | 10:43 |
| mazal | From Windows XP to Ubuntu server 11.10 | 10:44 |
| mazal | Apache fine , ssh fine , iperf test get's 9mb/s , only Samba copies at 300 to 800kb/s | 10:44 |
| superfly | mazal: OK, well, Windows' networking stack is a mess to behold, so copying speeds are always slow. secondly, things will *always* vary over a network | 10:45 |
| mazal | Not that slow Superfly | 10:45 |
| mazal | I get the normal 9mb/s to my other Ubuntu server on the same network from the same client | 10:45 |
| * superfly doesn't use samba, so he can't help much further than point out networking [ab]normalities | 10:46 | |
| mazal | One is 10.10 , other one is 11.10 | 10:47 |
| mazal | Something is very badly wrong | 10:47 |
| superfly | mazal: when did this start? | 10:48 |
| mazal | Right from the word go | 10:48 |
| mazal | Since installation | 10:49 |
| mazal | At first I saw that my ssh login takes very long | 10:49 |
| tumbleweed | broken DNS? | 10:49 |
| superfly | mazal: dude, I don't get your attitude on the forums. Windows always needs extra external tools to do ANY troubleshooting, and you're moaning that you have to apt-get a package or two? | 10:49 |
| mazal | Then when I started to put data to the shares I immediately saw big problems | 10:49 |
| mazal | You are looking at 15 to copy 100mb | 10:49 |
| mazal | 15min even | 10:49 |
| superfly | though asking why a server is not connected to the internet, and asking about FTP are just stupid. | 10:50 |
| mazal | Superfly that is frustration that vented there because I always have to struggle because of a proxy | 10:50 |
| mazal | Anyway , that is not the issue | 10:51 |
| superfly | mazal: btw, generally if I have a problem, I ask on CLUG-chat/tech or GLUG-chat/tech | 10:51 |
| mazal | iperf have been installed and shows that my network is fine | 10:51 |
| superfly | Ubuntu Forums is full of people who think they know more than they do | 10:51 |
| mazal | And I also knew that struggling to get that app installed will help nothing as I knew my network is ok | 10:52 |
| mazal | Anyway , tests shows that it seems to be apache only | 10:52 |
| mazal | tumbleweed, why you say dns ? | 10:53 |
| tumbleweed | mazal: if it's taking forever to log in by ssh, I'll bet that you have broken reverse DNS | 10:53 |
| mazal | ssh is fixed | 10:53 |
| mazal | But how can I check that tumbleweed ? | 10:53 |
| tumbleweed | by looking up hostnames from IPs | 10:56 |
| mazal | I have double checked everything in interfaces as well as resolv.conf | 10:56 |
| tumbleweed | anyway, no idea why your samba is slow | 10:56 |
| mazal | And all the ip's is correct in resolv.conf and interfaces | 10:56 |
| mazal | ok , thank you | 10:57 |
| mazal | I just tested to see if I can ping out using hostnames and that works fine. So I can see hostnames , IE my dns is fine ? | 11:04 |
| tumbleweed | yup | 11:14 |
| mazal | oi , I have no idea what else to test. Went through all advice | 11:14 |
| tumbleweed | is samba only slow when you access it from windows? or linux too? | 11:16 |
| tumbleweed | anything interesting in the log files? | 11:16 |
| mazal | I don't have a Linux client here at work | 11:16 |
| mazal | Only two Ubuntu servers | 11:16 |
| mazal | My only ubuntu laptop is on a different server and can't see the server :-( | 11:17 |
| mazal | I am forced to use Windows | 11:17 |
| mazal | on a different network even | 11:17 |
| mazal | tumbleweed: I don't know which log files to check for this particular issue | 11:18 |
| tumbleweed | samba's log files, and also have a lok over daemon.log | 11:19 |
| * mazal goes hunting for samba log files | 11:20 | |
| charlvn | inetpro: it's a very old thing, it's surprising to see how many people here don't know about it | 11:25 |
| charlvn | mazal: is it only samba or is scp also slow? | 11:27 |
| mazal | Samba log files shows nothing and I don't have a daemon.log | 11:30 |
| mazal | charlvn: yup | 11:30 |
| mazal | only samba | 11:30 |
| charlvn | ah ok | 11:30 |
| NeVeR_ | Hi Guys | 11:32 |
| NeVeR_ | I did the Pre-training assessment: Ubuntu Professional, on the canonical site.. says I got level 5.. what does that even mean? :| | 11:33 |
| superfly | NeVeR_: I wouldn't know, never heard of it before. | 11:34 |
| charlvn | me neither | 11:34 |
| NeVeR_ | oic :| lol | 11:34 |
| charlvn | this is an ubuntu support channel, not really a canonical channel | 11:34 |
| NeVeR_ | I want to get some sort of certification, looking at changing jobs.. I was just looking at some course at Obsysdian and it said I should do the pre-assesment... did it but it tells me nothing :P | 11:35 |
| inetpro | charlvn: s/ubuntu support channel/ubuntu community channel/ | 11:35 |
| charlvn | inetpro: you're right, community channel | 11:35 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: it's a good question, i don't really know what is considered a "good" option for certification | 11:36 |
| charlvn | i, for one, have no formal linux certification, and that's the way i prefer to keep it | 11:36 |
| * inetpro agrees with charlvn | 11:37 | |
| inetpro | autodidacticism ftw! | 11:37 |
| charlvn | i use such a stack of software, for me to even attempt to formally qualify myself in any of those is impractical | 11:38 |
| charlvn | i just did a B.Sc. in software engineering for some background | 11:38 |
| charlvn | autodidacticism++ | 11:39 |
| charlvn | ok meeting bbl | 11:39 |
| inetpro | charlvn: enjoy! | 11:39 |
| * inetpro checks the topic | 11:41 | |
| inetpro | I wonder how that Ubuntu Hour went on Saturday | 11:41 |
| inetpro | hope someone can help us update the topic | 11:42 |
| superfly | NeVeR_: I know that Obsidian offers a number of certifications. It's probably a good idea to get a certification from them, and you might get a job through their connections | 11:45 |
| NeVeR_ | thanks for the info guys :) | 12:11 |
| mazal | Bye everyone , have a good afternoon | 12:48 |
| Kilos | hiya maiatoday superfly and others | 13:35 |
| Kilos | hi NeVeR_ | 13:35 |
| Kilos | lol | 13:35 |
| charlvn | hi Kilos | 13:37 |
| maiatoday | hi Kilos | 13:37 |
| Kilos | hey charlvn all good | 13:37 |
| charlvn | yup yup | 13:37 |
| charlvn | just rainy | 13:37 |
| charlvn | and you? | 13:37 |
| Kilos | im good ty where is it raining? | 13:38 |
| charlvn | where i live in unknown location :) | 13:38 |
| Kilos | ha ha ha no man cant be the tvl so maybe the cape or natal | 13:38 |
| charlvn | not .za | 13:39 |
| charlvn | :) | 13:39 |
| Kilos | ah | 13:39 |
| Kilos | oh you also there | 13:39 |
| Kilos | with psydroid and the smiley guy | 13:39 |
| charlvn | "there"? | 13:39 |
| charlvn | ah from my hostname charlvn.nl | 13:39 |
| charlvn | good guess, that might or might not be correct | 13:40 |
| charlvn | if you traceroute the url you will end up in germany | 13:40 |
| charlvn | the hostname i mean | 13:40 |
| charlvn | but that might or might not be where i live | 13:40 |
| Kilos | not a guess you put in the country when you sign up with irc | 13:40 |
| Kilos | or did you talk a lie | 13:41 |
| charlvn | you don't "sign up" with irc, you just connect to a server | 13:41 |
| charlvn | oh wait you are using a client like xchat that gives you the country? | 13:41 |
| Kilos | lol ya | 13:41 |
| charlvn | it just determines that by the cctld in the hostname | 13:41 |
| charlvn | it has a list of cctlds and the corresponding names of the country | 13:41 |
| Kilos | cctld? | 13:41 |
| charlvn | country-code top level domain | 13:42 |
| charlvn | .nl or .za or similar | 13:42 |
| NeVeR_ | Hi Kilos | 13:42 |
| NeVeR_ | :P | 13:42 |
| Kilos | whew thats a mouthfull | 13:42 |
| charlvn | yeah | 13:42 |
| charlvn | you also get a gtld - a general top level domain | 13:42 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, are you new here? | 13:42 |
| charlvn | generic, sorry, not general | 13:42 |
| NeVeR_ | Yea I'm new :) | 13:43 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, welcome to ubuntu-za | 13:43 |
| zeref | huurrrrrmmm, internet back :D | 13:43 |
| zeref | pew pew, weo weo | 13:43 |
| Kilos | hi zeref | 13:43 |
| zeref | hi Kilos | 13:43 |
| charlvn | hi zeref, your internet was down? | 13:43 |
| zeref | yeah since last wednesday | 13:44 |
| charlvn | that sucks | 13:44 |
| Kilos | wow that sucks zeref | 13:44 |
| charlvn | wow since wednesday, that's a long time | 13:44 |
| Kilos | zeref, arent you at the varsity? | 13:44 |
| zeref | my life was meh, for bout a week | 13:45 |
| NeVeR_ | thx :> is there a local entry point for this irc server?? | 13:45 |
| zeref | Kilos: webs at res... | 13:45 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, yes freenode | 13:45 |
| zeref | was lazy to go to campus, esp in the evening | 13:45 |
| Kilos | yeah zeref too cold | 13:46 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, are you using xchat or quassel | 13:46 |
| NeVeR_ | neither at the moment lol... I' | 13:46 |
| NeVeR_ | I'm using a webclient | 13:46 |
| NeVeR_ | I'm on my work laptop.. its windows (puke) | 13:47 |
| NeVeR_ | its got windows | 13:47 |
| Kilos | ok you can install xchat and set it up to come here easily | 13:47 |
| Kilos | ouch | 13:47 |
| Kilos | you get xchat for winsucks as well | 13:47 |
| NeVeR_ | lol I got Mirc on winsucks | 13:48 |
| NeVeR_ | mIRC | 13:48 |
| NeVeR_ | is it za.freenode.net ? | 13:48 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: afaik there are no south african servers for freenode | 13:48 |
| NeVeR_ | :( i see | 13:48 |
| Kilos | nope | 13:48 |
| Kilos | just freenode | 13:48 |
| charlvn | there are a bunch in the usa, a bunch in europe, and one in australia | 13:48 |
| Kilos | methinks xchat is easier than mirc | 13:49 |
| NeVeR_ | I can't connect from my work, delay is too bad.. just times out :\ can only connect through a web client | 13:49 |
| Kilos | aw | 13:49 |
| charlvn | it's ridiculous that the windows build of xchat is shareware | 13:49 |
| charlvn | http://xchat.org/windows/ | 13:50 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, where are you? | 13:50 |
| NeVeR_ | Where am I? O_o Bryanston | 13:50 |
| charlvn | oh i see there are some free non-official builds http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Chat | 13:51 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: freenode has an incredibly high ping timeout threshold so if that happens your internet is pretty screwed | 13:51 |
| charlvn | or run linux inside a virtual machine and run xchat/irssi or similar inside of that, another alternative | 13:52 |
| Kilos | NeVeR_, win 7 or xp? | 13:52 |
| NeVeR_ | Win 7 | 13:52 |
| NeVeR_ | I'll give xchat a try tonight... got lots of work to do for now :/ | 13:52 |
| Kilos | Maaz, google free xchat for win7 | 13:52 |
| Maaz | Kilos: "XChat: Multiplatform Chat Program" http://xchat.org/ :: "XChat for Windows" http://xchat.org/windows/ :: "X-Chat 2 for Windows" http://www.silverex.org/ :: "XChat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XChat :: "xchat Windows 7 - Free Download Windows 7 xchat" http://www.windows7download.com/free-win7-xchat/ :: "Download X-Chat for Windows 7 free - Windows 7 Download" http://www.windows7download.com/win7-x- | 13:52 |
