[05:17] <sarthor> Hi, "Consider me non expert" I have dyndns paid pro account, 20$/year, In my home i have 8 mb/sec DSL line, and also i have some 8core of AMD machine with proxmox installed, I have virtual ubuntu-server 12.04 installed on that proxmox. I have one domain www.xyz.com without hosting with some registrar, My question is that is it possible to host my website on my home machine and also mail and dns servers? If yes so I will need some guidance in
[05:17] <sarthor>  shape of some Internet links of How to's, Thanks waiting.
[05:18] <Venom> do most ubuntu servers use command line only?
[05:20] <sarthor> Hi, "Consider me non expert" I have dyndns paid pro account, 20$/year, In my home i have 8 mb/sec DSL line, and also i have some 8core of AMD machine with proxmox installed, I have virtual ubuntu-server 12.04 installed on that proxmox. I have one domain www.xyz.com without hosting with some registrar, My question is that is it possible to host my website on my home machine and also mail and dns servers without spending more money? If yes so
[05:20] <sarthor> I will need some guidance in shape of some Internet links of How to's, Thanks waiting.
[05:29] <ScottK> sarthor: There's really nothing Ubuntu specific about your question.
[05:33] <sarthor> ScottK: Which will be the appropriate channel to ask such question? Really brother I do not know,
[05:34] <ScottK> The general answer to your question is, "It's possible, but there are some inherent limits to how reliable it'll be.  That may be good enough for you.  However, you're almost certainly violating the terms of service with your ISP to do it."
[05:35] <ScottK> If you look at the Ubuntu server guide it tells you how to set up an Ubuntu server to the things you mentioned.
[05:35] <sarthor> ScottK: I am just learning, I do want to do it as permanant bases. I am a learner.
[05:36] <ScottK> The one part that's different is the dyndns part and they probably have documentation.
[05:36] <ScottK> I'm not judging if you should or not, just making sure you know.
[05:36] <sarthor> I do not want to do it as permanent*
[05:48] <ScottK> In any case use the Ubuntu Server guide and dyndns documentation to get started.
[13:13] <AlphaWolf> I've got a HFS+ (non-journaled) and I've been trying to get write permissions. I followed a lot of things from Google, but I've only gotten so far. I have chown-ed myself to the folder, but I thill can't write to it, despite the message "warning <drive> has been mounted read-only" not appearing after I chown-ed myself. ls -a shows "drwxrwxr-x 1 joseph   99     7 Jul 28 13:58 TimeMachine". Any ideas, anyone?
[15:29] <maxagaz> hi
[15:30] <maxagaz> how to check that mysql is open on a distant server and on which port (I didn't change it, so it chould be the default one)
[15:36] <SpamapS> maxagaz: mysql -h thehost -uyouruser -pyourpass
[15:37] <maxagaz> SpamapS: I have seen with nmap that it's filtered, so not open
[15:37] <maxagaz> 3306/tcp filtered mysql
[15:37] <maxagaz> how can I open it ?
[15:38] <SpamapS> maxagaz: probably with a firewall rule
[15:38] <maxagaz> SpamapS: I didn't set my firewall
[15:40] <albert23> maxagaz: by default mysql only listens on localhost
[15:41] <maxagaz> albert23: how to make it listen to external addresses ?
[15:41] <maxagaz> albert23: or just 2 or 3 addresses
[15:41] <albert23> you can change it in /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[15:41] <albert23> change this line: bind-address           = 127.0.0.1
[15:44] <qman__> remember, mysql connections are in the clear, so only do that on a trusted network or tunnel over SSL
[15:46] <maxagaz> albert23: to what should I change it ?
[15:46] <maxagaz> can I change it to: bind-address = ip1, ip2, ip3 ?
[15:47] <albert23> you van try. Using one address may also be enough?
[15:48] <albert23> and 0.0.0.0 would listen on any address
[15:50] <maxagaz> albert23: 0.0.0.0 sounds dangerous
[15:51] <albert23> I would prefer to use just one address indeed
[15:54] <maxagaz> albert23: I tried 0.0.0.0, but nmap still shows it as "filtered"
[15:55] <albert23> maxagaz: did you restart mysql?
[15:55] <maxagaz> albert23: yes I did
[15:56] <albert23> you can check on the remote server if mysql is indeed listening on all addresses
[15:56] <albert23> otherwise I guess there is some firewall between you and the server
[15:56] <maxagaz> I have also opened the firewall
[15:57] <maxagaz> with: sudo /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --destination-port 3306 -j ACCEPT
[15:58] <albert23> and there is no rule that could drop mysql before that line?
[16:00] <maxagaz> albert23: it's the only time I changed rules on this server
[16:00] <albert23> you may want to check all rules with sudo iptables -L -v. That will also show which rules are being used for traffic
[16:02] <maxagaz> albert23: https://gist.github.com/3193838
[16:03] <albert23> that shows 0 hits for the mysql rule
[16:07] <maxagaz> albert23: amazon must be blocking somewhere
[16:11] <albert23> maxagaz: that's the first thing to check. As long as you don't see hits in your fw rule, mysql itself is not relevant yet
[16:12] <maxagaz> albert23: I understand, thanks a lot for your help!
[16:13] <albert23> no problem
[16:13] <TheLordOfTime> Bug 1030332 which was just announced here appears Incomplete btw
[16:13] <TheLordOfTime> in case the server team's wondering
[20:04] <AlphaWolf> I've a samba share setup, and in /etc/samba/smb.conf I have http://paste.ubuntu.com/1116214/ at the bottom of my file. I have have "security = user". However, when I try and access the files (under Ubuntu Desktop or Windows 7), it does not accept my username/password (e.g. the one I would use when logging in through ssh). Do I need to add my user in the samba config somewhere?
[20:05] <genii-around> sudo smbpasswd -a username && smbpasswd -e username   ( -a is add, -e is enable )
[20:05] <AlphaWolf> is it a good idea to use the same username/password as my "main" user?
[20:05] <genii-around> I missed putting sudo there in the second command, apologies
[20:06] <AlphaWolf> Oh, sorry, I read that wrong
[20:07] <genii-around> AlphaWolf: There are different ideas on the subject. I have here a user and group which is only for smb users and use that, mapping bad usernames or passwords to guest user instead.
[20:08] <AlphaWolf> I guess I'm lucky that security isn't much of an issue
[20:09] <AlphaWolf> I was more thinking about if it would cause issues within the system, rather than logically.
[20:47] <henkjan> has anyone seen excessive slab cache growth in ubuntu precise?
[20:47] <henkjan> we are using ubuntu precise as a fileserver
[20:47] <henkjan> server iscsi and nfs
[20:48] <henkjan> oom killer kills the host every few days
[20:48] <henkjan> looking back with atop show slab cache growing 'till al memory is gone
[20:50] <PatrickDK> well, check to see what is using all your slab memory
[20:55] <henkjan> hmm, i guess ext4 inode cache
[20:55] <henkjan> but guessing is not enough
[20:55] <henkjan> time to measure
