Is there a good way to reverse what I did? Can I just delete /.ssh/uploaded_key.pub? [05:18] Thanks [05:20] pmp6nl, look at the file, delete the offending entry. [05:21] pmp6nl, also examine .ssh/authorized_keys [05:21] aarcane, ok thanks [05:21] pmp6nl, if this is the ONLY key you've copied, youj can delete both files. [05:22] aarcane, would it hurt to leave them alone and just not use them? [05:22] when you attempt to connect with a key, sshd checks .ssh/authorized_keys, so you can't not use that file. [05:25] there is an option to not store new entries in there, but that really hampers security [05:25] aarcane, I am assuming I now have two keys. Or maybe confusing myself. I was following http://library.linode.com/linux-tools/rdiff-backup#sph_add-and-configure-a-backup-user and I did this on the remote server instead of my laptop [05:26] each key is a single line in authorized_keys. If you want to remove the offending file, or remove and recreate the file, it should be a simple matter. [05:26] ok aarcane let me take a look at the file [05:27] patdk-lap, are you talking about the new openssh certificate authorty stuff? [05:28] no, I read that all wrong, I was thinking of knownkeys [05:33] hi all, I have Canon LJ3050 USB printer, I want to make it network printer and share it for windows client. I want to know how to. I also want to know if I need to make my windows machine as workgroup or join linux domain [05:34] linocisco, it should be a simple matter of configuring the printer in cups, then sharing it in samba. [05:34] linocisco, as for adding drivers, that's a bit more nightmarish, and you're better off just installing drivers automatically if you can. [05:35] Workgroup and Domain are unnecessary, but you SHOULD add user accounts for users. Just make the linux user account and samba password match the windows user account and password,and you should be fine. [05:35] aarcane, not sure, the scp command worked, but those files appear to be empty [05:36] can I just delete the user? [06:25] Hello everyone, I am trying to use ssh-copy-id user@remote.example.com but I am missing something it keeps asking me for my "Enter passphrase for key '/home/rdiffbackup/.ssh/id_rsa': " ideas?

[12:22] Daviey: python-quantumclient has grown a new dependency. I can just go ahead an upload it if you want, but if you'd rather wait until after beta freeze that's cool too. [12:22] Daviey: It's cliff-tablib which adds some more formatters for the cli tools. Tests for a change in python-quantumclient introduced the dependency. It's not strictly required at runtime. [12:23] (but without it, you won't be able to get the quantum cli tools to output json) [12:23] soren: no, upload it, we'll at least get it in universe, ready for the next snapshot on friday [12:24] i've heard of cliff-tablib ..

Is it something you ever tested? :) [13:49] there is no package pool... but it could do ubiquity style cdromupgrade: reinstall all packages preserving /etc, /home & friends. [13:49] Daviey, I tested offline server upgrade for LTS. It doesn't really make sense for releases in-between IMO, I'm not sure many sysadmins plays with upgrading their DC every 6 months. [13:49] xnox: that is why i immediately didn't say no. :) [13:50] Daviey: note that ubiquity calls is "reinstall preserving user data" not upgrade ;-) [13:50] jibel: Maybe i am wrong.. I find upgrade from cd not very interesting TBH. Either upgrade from network, or re-install if you have a cd to hand. [13:51] Based on comments from slangasek, I understood that that quantal & up will only support network upgrades. [13:51] unless you manually yourself use something like aptoncd and similar to create an "offline" archive. [13:51] and upgrade using that. [13:55] xnox: oh, well.. if slangasek is offering support for any of the options, i'll leave that alone. :) [13:57] while cdrom upgrade case is useful, it's not that interesting =) [14:02] xnox: Funny.

[19:17] yeah sounds like i need to stay away from that for what i need [19:17] well, you probably need DRBD etc for anything if you want to replicate a live system [19:18] regardless of what you choose [19:18] Great I will research it [19:18] HA clustering isn't a stroll in the park, it takes a bit of studies [19:18] I love to study :-) [19:19] do any of you host your own website on your own box? [19:19] Sounds like fun [19:19] WARACE: I spoke to met.no (norwegian meteorolgial institute) - they use zimbra with drbd and heartbeat, two locations, full failover [19:19] WARACE: and zimbra is good, but it needs to be on a dedicated machine, or VM, but then KVM is part of Ubuntu, and not very hard to setup [19:20] ok so Zimbra on its own box [19:20] or VM [19:20] and my Apache SQL PHP on its own box with DRBD [19:20] hmm my linux box is at like 44% memory usage [19:21] apache/php/mysql/postgresql/whatever for other uses than email/groupware should be in a separate VM [19:21] DRBD used to mirror two zimbra installations [19:21] zimbra includes email+apache+php+java+whatever [19:22] Hmmm I will take a deep look into that tonight [19:22] is there a way to see what processes are using the most memory?

[19:27] WARACE: and you need your own IP addresses, with BGP routing, and routers supporting that [19:27] all my ports are open [19:27] and I am in a regular home package now [19:27] lol [19:28] hmm i have one more stick of 256mb of ram i can put in my box [19:28] yeah business line provides static ips [19:28] meaning your ISP will probably smile at you if you ask for redundant BGP routing ;) [19:28] currently have 1.5gb of ram in it but 44% is being used :S [19:28] I have 16GB of ram on this computer [19:29] :-) [19:29] this one here has 8gb.. but my cheap p4 linux server doesn't have very much [19:29] takes ddr1 [19:29] DDR3 here [19:30] well ttyl [19:30] WARACE: one small tip: there's no reason to setup a redundant zimbra installation in a single site, and to make it dual-site, you'll need BGP routing, meaning you will need a separate IP subnet, and a good deal with two ISPs. That won't be cheap [19:31] WARACE: better make a single-site-setup with good redundancy on the disks, PSUs etc, and forget about DRBD and friends [19:32] Not too worried about pricing I will leave that up to the financial partner [19:32] He likes my idea he wants to put money down on it [19:32] I just don't want my scripts on anyone elses servers [19:32] WARACE: you'll also need other links, home ISPs don't deliver BGP, nor subnets [19:33] I will upgrade Verizon here does anything for money [19:33] * RoyK wonders what WARACE is smoking [19:33] So does Cablevision [19:34] And i guess if I can not get the lines put in here I can get them installed at the office site [19:34] jeez wth are you doing lol [19:35] He has a T1 line at the office which to me is garbage [19:35] ya T1 is dumb [19:35] 1.54Mbps [19:35] \o/ [19:35] i get 4 times that [19:35] * RoyK has 60Mbps symmetric FTTH [19:36] yea i have ftth too [19:36] 50/30 [19:36] i have 50/50Mbps FIOS [19:36] FIOS?

[19:36] Fiber Optic Service [19:37] i want to see how fast i can upload to someone [19:37] never really tried it [19:38] http://speedtest2.eastlink.ca/larger.file.bin 2012-09-03 16:37:52 (4.62 MB/s) - `larger.file.bin' saved [262144000/262144000] [19:38] WARACE: FTTH is the name for that - fiber to the home - or FTTP - fiber to the porn, for some ;) [19:38] i can get 5.7MBps [19:38] anyone have a ftp i can see how fast i can upload to you. i want to test it out [19:39] * RoyK gets 7MB/s or so [19:40] only crappy thing my ip is dynamic [19:40] * RoyK has static ip [19:41] too bad they don't have ipv6 so far [19:41] yea everything should move to ipv6 [19:41] LOL [19:41] Verizon calls it FIOS here [19:42] BellAliant calls it FibreOP here [19:42] Fiber Optic Sexcapades [19:42] involves allot of handy work [19:42] ;) [19:42] lol [19:43] and self deployment [19:44] WARACE: got a ftp setup i can test how fast i can upload? === cpg is now known as cpg|away [20:18] i have a box that seems to be having some interesting networking issues that i have not encountered before. i can connect to services on it from inside the LAN. when i attempt to ping google from the box, it can successfully resolve the DNS but will fail with "Network is unreachable". It seems to be working but refuses to access the internet. [20:19] same story with the vm that is on it [20:19] still sounds like a DNS issue [20:20] ping via ip address, and solve that first [20:20] if you can't figure it out, pastebin ifconfig -a; route -n [20:20] 173.194.75.94 that is one of google's ips [20:21] Network is unreachable. one of my tests was a wget google.com, it listed about 10 of google's ip's which is what lead me to believe that DNS was working. incorrect assumption? [20:22] [4:20pm] lunaphyte: if you can't figure it out, pastebin ifconfig -a; route -n [20:22] [4:20pm] Troy^: 173.194.75.94 that is one of google's ips [20:22] oops [20:22] haha! [20:22] [4:20pm] lunaphyte: ping via ip address, and solve that first [20:22] that was the one i intended to repeat [20:22] okay [20:23] pick an address that you can demonstrate pings successfully from elsewhere [20:33] okay, it can ping any LAN PC, any LAN PC can ping it, as well as access it's services. I can resolve DNS queries with dig (even tried .coms that i NEVER visit). Cannot ping any resource on the internet. my ifconfig appears as it always does, my route -n has http://pastebin.com/jCr8zZ4S [20:35] [4:22pm] lunaphyte: [4:20pm] lunaphyte: if you can't figure it out, pastebin ifconfig -a; route -n [20:35] please follow directions if you'd like free help. [20:36] heh [20:43] there another 256mb of ram installed in server [20:43] i graciously thank you for your "free help". i am open to alternative avenues. [20:44] again... [20:44] "if you can't figure it out, pastebin ifconfig -a; route -n" [20:48] is there any way i can regenerate /etc/mime.types ? [20:50] nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "application/activemessage" in /etc/mime.types:821 [20:51] why do you need to regenerate it? [20:51] lunaphyte: i figured i edited it at one point in time (don't remember) [20:51] why not just address the offending entry? [20:52] the error doesn't make sense, there are no ; or } anywhere in the file [20:52] i don't see any references to ; or } in the error you shared [20:53] ahh, yes you are right...looks like the error is different now. my mistake! [20:53] i still feel it'd be easier to regenerate that file [20:53] you'd simply want to do what's right, not easier. [20:54] imo, if you don't remember what you've done to that file, you'd want to compare it to a backup [20:54] it's saying unknown directive "application/activemessage on line 821 if i'm reading it right [20:54] yes, that's likely [20:54] line 821 is x-world/x-vrml [20:54] anyone here haven't signed up for ubuntu one storage yet want to sign up and give both us an extra 500mb of storage? [20:55] ehnde: the way parsers generally work, the line number is a clue, not an answer. === cpg|away is now known as cpg [20:57] if you can't figure it out, pastebin the preceding and following 20 or so lines [20:59] restored a backup of the file, now i'm going to pastebin the original error and those 20 lines [21:00] http://pastebin.com/05cyUuJw [21:00] maybe it's a problem with nginx [21:01] which line in your pastebin is 821 now? [21:01] oh, 822, rather [21:02] the last line in the pastebin post is line # 821 [21:02] ... [21:02] "the preceding and following 20 or so lines" [21:03] ah yes, reading failure [21:03] cat -n /etc/mime.types [21:03] pastebin lines 800-850 [21:04] 822 is eof [21:04] ah [21:04] http://pastebin.com/PH5zT78H [21:04] if i put a ; at the very end, it complains about the first line in the file [21:05] so there's your clue [21:05] is nginx intended to use the system mime types file? [21:06] well... /etc/nginx/mime.types exists :o [21:06] and...it's formatted differently! [21:07] perhaps that's the one you should be using then for nginx? [21:07] it must be [21:08] nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok [21:09] thanks lunaphyte! [21:09] sure thing [21:11] is there anyway to upload a file to my ubuntu one account via term? === arrrghhhAWAY is now known as arrrghhh [22:12] has anyone had any issues with Postfix and Dovecot after a dist upgrade? [22:28] jeeves_moss: what sort of issues? [22:28] and what do you mean by "dist upgrade" ? [22:30] JanC, I did a do-dist-upgrade [22:32] there have been some changes in the (recommended) config options for dovecot over the years [22:32] why not share the specific problem you're having? [22:33] I'm getting an error code of "init: dovecot main process (25571) terminated with status 89" [22:33] although I think in most cases they were just deprecating things and not removing them [22:33] jeeves_moss: pastebin doveconf -n [22:33] reading Dovecot upgrade notes / changelogs might be useful [22:33] lunaphyte, one sec [22:35] lunaphyte, http://pastebin.com/CXv3Lju5 [22:36] huh [22:36] i did not ask for that. [22:36] oh well, off to do other things. good luck. [22:37] lunaphyte, ok, thanks anyways [22:38] lunaphyte, http://pastebin.com/W65Xeqzg [22:40] jeeves_moss: the error on the end of that should give you a clue about where to look ☺ [22:41] actually, 2 errors there [22:42] JanC, yea. I just haven't had the paticene to sit down and figure it out. [22:42] one about an ssl certificate, and one about missing a driver for the password database (that last one sounds like you're missing the dovecot-mysql package) [22:43] JanC, yes, I am using MySQL. I'm going to try to fix that first. [22:45] the other error is that it seems like your config doesn't point to an ssl certificate (or points to a file that doesn't exist or ...) [22:45] JanC, I'm not 100% why a dist upgrade would break stuff [22:47] jeeves_moss: depends on how you installed it [22:47] JanC, the "do-dist-upgrade" command [22:48] I mean how you installed it in a previous version [22:48] JanC, "apt-get install dovecot", etc [22:48] there were no separate dovecot- packages in Lucid [22:48] JanC, no idea. I do remember getting it from APT [22:50] and I think the upgrade should work fine if you installed the 'dovecot' metapackage, but maybe not if you only installed the packages you actually needed separately [22:50] (but I didn't test that upgrade...) [22:50] I dont think so. I'll have another look [22:52] jeeves_moss: so, does installing dovecot-mysql help to fix one of those 2 bugs? [22:52] I think it is. let me look [22:53] weird, I wonder why it wasn't installed [22:55] do/did you have dovecot-common installed? (that seems to be the "transitional package" that should pull in dovecot-mysql & co. on upgrades) [22:56] yep, it's installed [22:57] hm, seems like the dependencies are only listed as suggested, so that might explain something [22:57] ?? [22:59] it might explain why the dovecot-mysql package isn't installed [23:01] I have mounted an ubuntu server to by ubuntu laptop via fstab and sshfs. I want to do backups via this, however my user does not have access to some of the folder/files, iE: var/log. is there a safe way to give the user access to back these files up? Thanks [23:02] pmp6nl: how can it be safe for a user to backup files it is not allowed to read? [23:02] JanC, Good question. But is it more safe to ssh in as root? [23:03] in case of /var/log, usually you can read files in there if the user is a member of group 'adm' [23:03] but not in all cases, I guess [23:04] What about other files JanC -- I am looking for a good way to backup files to my laptop and I figured rsync via the mount would be a good option. But I see permission read errors [23:05] pmp6nl: one thing you could do is to have a cron job that makes an archive of those files, and then uses chown/chmod to give the backup user access to the archive [23:06] you could even use encryption on the archive, that way the user can backup the archive, but not read its contents... [23:06] JanC, what's the dovecot command to check for erros again? [23:06] JanC, Humm, that may work. I wonder how much harder that will make keeping versions of each file. I dont care if the user can read the backup as the user is me [23:07] for configuration errors: "doveconf -n" [23:07] jeeves_moss: can't you read you scrollback, dude? [23:07] JanC, thank you. and no, Xchat sucks [23:08] why not use an irc client that doesn't suck? [23:08] jeeves_moss: Xchat has great scrollback support... [23:08] it locked up, so I can't scroll back [23:08] it will show scrollback even after you restart it... [23:09] anyways... Now, lt's figure out why it can't see the MySQL driver [23:10] pmp6nl: in that case, maybe you can configure sudo to allow the backup command [23:12] JanC, humm, perhaps. I will have to research that as I do not know much about the topic === hggdh_ is now known as hggdh === Ursinha` is now known as Ursinha === Ursinha is now known as Guest21289 === Guest21289 is now known as Ursinha
