[03:03] <jthan> Do you have to reset vixie-cron for new jobs to take effect? I feel like that's a "no"
[03:09] <jthan> I put a script in /etc/cron.hourly just to test it out.. it's supposed to put the output in a log file in my home directory. Did that earlier - nothing in there as of now.
[03:11] <InHisName> Is the cron job processor running.  (not sure of real name)   If its not running, then all the scripts in the pc just lay about and do nothing.
[03:13] <jthan> jonathan@berkley ~ $ /etc/init.d/vixie-cron status * status: started
[03:16] <jthan> I miss helping people troubleshoot issues in #ubuntu
[03:16] <jthan> ha
[03:16] <jthan> or in here, for that matter
[03:17] <InHisName> Is there a config file ?   If so be sure its set to check and run 'hourly' 'daily' etc.   I had similar problem with cron on ubuntu in not running correctly out of the box.
[03:27] <jthan> Sure - it's in the crontab
[09:24] <JonathanD> Morning.
[09:30] <rmg51> Morning
[09:41] <JonathanD> hey rmg51
[09:41] <rmg51> yo
[10:26] <InHisName> yo-yo
[15:48] <ChinnoDog> So, Amazon has this free cloud server offering but it only lasts a year. Anyone know what it will cost after that for those resources?
[16:34] <ChinnoDog> $19.82
[16:36] <ChinnoDog> Per server. They give you two of them.
[16:37] <ChinnoDog> That is a pretty sweet deal
[16:52] <Joe_CoT> ChinnoDog, it's actually pretty cheap to pay for. I kept the microserver
[16:53] <Joe_CoT> I paid $82 for 3 year reserved, and pay $7 a month. so 9 and change a month
[16:54] <ChinnoDog> I hadn't looked real closely at how the reserved one work
[16:54] <ChinnoDog> So, that works out pretty well for you then
[16:56] <ChinnoDog> Joe_CoT: explain how to get the best price on reserved
[16:57] <ChinnoDog> I see $82 for medium utilization micro upfront cost
[16:57] <Joe_CoT> you buy the reserved upfront, and then pay the lower reserved monthly price
[16:58] <ChinnoDog> What is the light/medium/high utilization about? The upfront/hourly differential based on how many hours it will be powered on?
[16:58] <Joe_CoT> that I have no idea about.
[16:58] <Joe_CoT> when I bought reserved the utilization thing wasn't there
[17:01] <ChinnoDog> I figured it out
[17:01] <ChinnoDog> It is what I said. If you assume your Ubuntu server will be on 24/7 then use heavy utilization prices for maximum cost savings
[17:03] <Joe_CoT> ah
[17:03] <Joe_CoT> yeah, I pay $5 a month for the server apparently, the other 2-3 dollars is bandwidth
[17:12] <ChinnoDog> I think I may need to switch so I can develop EC2 expertise
[17:14] <ChinnoDog> Joe_CoT: how can a micro instance have EBS storage only? Where is the operating system stored?
[17:14] <Joe_CoT> it's stored on EBS
[17:15] <ChinnoDog> That is a strange place to store the operating system
[17:38] <adom> guess whos back
[17:39] <adom> *two thumbs* this guy
[17:59] <ChinnoDog> ?
[18:45] <InHisName> afternoon

[20:02] <adom> havent dicked with my screen sessions in awhile

[21:43] <jthan> I was complaining yesterday that my script wouldn't run
[21:43] <jthan> But I didn't ever make it executable -_-
