[06:27] Hello everyone [06:29] Kentos: figuring things out? [06:29] yeah, i pulled the drives out, cleared the OS HDDs and got through the install [06:30] now im wondering if i can (after setting up a mirror raid for the OS drive) create post install another raid with my remaining 4 drives [06:31] not sure how that would exactly work, but i want to use them for data storage [06:36] i know the 4 drives i want to make a new raid for are on a seperate card, should be an md0 and a md1 if load in the drives again correct? or is the mdadm arrays only shown if configured already in a raid set-up?

Is rc.local still a good place? [07:48] Gargoyle: generally in the ifup for the interface [07:50] i can check the manual quick, i thought i saw something in there about routing [07:51] static or dynamic routing? [07:51] static. [07:52] Node has two interfaces eth0 = iternet, eth1 = LAN. Routes are for LAN traffic [07:53] the scripts in /etc/network/if-up.d look a bit mental, I might just stick with rc.local! :) [07:56] Gargoyle: in interfaces, post-up ip route add foo via ar [07:56] Gargoyle: don't need a separate script [07:57] hmm, i don't see much info on the configuration of the IP routing. It does have some info on the ethtool program [07:58] and how to route to a gatewal, and a little on Kernal IP routing tables [07:58] gateway** [07:58] are you using a seperate router for the lan? [07:59] Kentos: Yes. The servers need to know the route to the other nets is via a second firewall / vpn endpoint. Not the default gw. [07:59] thanks lifeless [08:00] Gargoyle: man interfaces FWIW [08:00] Gargoyle: you can do a script in network/if-up.d if you want [08:00] lifeless: I keep forgetting that most config files have a man page! [08:01] Gargoyle: just need to check for $IFACE at the top of each script. [08:01] yeah, i found a nother way to do it, not sure if its as viable, but if its working via lifeless suggestion sounds like your set to go [08:07] hmmm, reading up on networking =P interesting to note though it almost sounds like your bridging two network segments and then filtering from one to the other with a firewall [08:07] almost sounds like something i would want to do for security reasons [08:07] @Gargoyle of course [08:08] Kentos: Yes. the firewalls are establishing IPSec VPN connections [08:09] so from home I can just connect to 192.168.100.105, for example. [08:09] On the internet side, everything is blocked except http and IPSec. [08:09] I was also wondering, I have two hdd controllers, and I believe they both can be set up for a raid with 4 drives each, I unplugged the bottom array while figuring out how to get the installer to run properly, I then set up a mirror (RAID1) on two drives [08:10] I was wondering, since ive already installed the OS, could i still go back now, with the 4 otehr drives plugged into the bottom controller and set up a raid for data storage? [08:11] Kentos: Don't see why not. You can just mount it somewhere on the filesystem [08:12] mount through mdadm? [08:12] im just wondering how I go about this, I havent foudn any documentation on it [08:13] err. Been a while since I did it, but IIRC, mdadm is used to create the RAID. then you would use normal mount. eg mount /dev/mdc1 /mnt/secondary_raid_storage [08:17] alright, so i just have to create the RAID and then mount as a filesystem. Ill check out what i got on info and plow through it tonight [08:18] Kentos: You create the RAID, and then you'll have a new block device like /dev/md?? [08:19] then you use that like you would any other disk. Create your filesystem, mount it, etc. [08:20] yeah im pretty sure thats how it will go, md0 is already configured etc. so md1 would be the next raid array if set up i believe, basically acting as the software raid controller === Ursinha`` is now known as Ursinha === Ursinha is now known as Guest29285 [08:21] anyone familiar with website based data storage, like setting up upload/download options? === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [08:22] im not sure if i have to use an FTP type set up, I'd rather have it handled over a webpage in the future [08:22] Kentos: You mean just uploading via a page in the website (using PHP or something) ?

The PCs are connecting with Windows Roaming Profiles. The two servers are up and running [14:43] decci: Migrate? [14:44] As in, keeping current database that's in use now, and migrate that into your LDAP store? [14:45] Psi-Jack: Let me explain : Currently there is a working Samba domain controller. On this server we have the samba domain controller as well as a file server with different shares for each user including profiles. The PCs are connecting with Windows Roaming Profiles. The two servers are up and running. [14:45] Psi-Jack: Integrate the existing, working (and in use!) Samba domain controller and file server with a new LDAP server. To summarize, the aim is to migrate from internal samba authentication to LDAP authentication keeping the same functionalities. [14:46] Okay, so yeah, you want to convert tdbsam to ldapsam. [14:47] Have you already imported all your user accounts into LDAP and just needing the Samba information? [14:48] Psi-Jack: No..I need to do that too.. [14:48] Psi-Jack: Where shall I start...I did long time importing NIS users to OpenLDAP and 389 DS [14:48] you need to do that first, then you can do the pdbedit -i tdbsam -e ldapsam migration. :) [14:49] Psi-Jack: But new to this case [14:50] Psi-Jack: I am aware of PADL Migration tools though [14:50] PADL migration tools is used to migrate the POSIX accounts to LDAP but what about Samba to LDAP?

Personally, I'd recommend you use OpenDJ for an LDAP server since it has a lot of power behind it, and it can even keep your passwords automatically synchronized between samba's unique format, and passwd accounts.

[20:09] define doesn't recognise disks, where does it not see the, what's the error ? [20:10] when the system boots it goes to grub rescue command line [20:11] I foot to say that I have raid configured [20:11] my boot disk should be md0 [20:11] hmm probablly configure it wrong? this is a fresh install right? [20:11] software raid, hardware raid, fakeraid ? [20:11] mdadm i assume [20:12] well, it's easy to let him answer [20:12] lol right [20:12] right Troy, the system installs correctly, I restart it after the installation and everything goes fine, but after some updates the system do not boot anymore [20:12] software raid, hardware raid, fakeraid ? [20:12] mdadm, yes Troy [20:13] are you using an mdadm.conf ? [20:13] so your at the grub rescue? [20:14] I suppose mdadm uses it by default [20:14] no, it doesn't [20:14] I have not watch it yet [20:15] type ls in grub rescue does your md0 come up? [20:15] I installed ubuntu server before, with software raid and it used mdadm.conf, that's why I'm supposing it is configured by default [20:16] if there is no mdadm.conf, update-initramfs -u will create one in the initramfs [20:16] I'm reading an article that advice editing mdadm.conf, do you think this can solve the problem? [20:17] I'm considering editing mdadm.conf with a live cd and then restart the server [20:17] http://paste.ubuntu.com/1195363/ this is what mine looks like 2x hard drives (Raid 1) [20:18] I don't really know much but i know mine works lol, i can see the two drives in the array [20:19] as I said I already installed an ubuntu server 10.04 with software raid and it has an mdadm.conf with the corresponding partitions configured [20:19] it is pretty much the same of yours [20:20] 10.04? [20:20] I will check with a live cd what it looks like, if the raid is configured or if something was touched with updates [20:21] LinuxAdmin: did you do a dist-upgrade? [20:21] Troy, this happened on a 11.04 [20:21] a dist-upgrade might definietly break something like that [20:22] no Try, I installed it from a cd, after the installation I restart the system and everything was fine, but after some automatic updates, the system could not boot any more [20:23] hmm ok [20:23] I'm talking about 10.4 because I installed a 10.04 before with software raid and it created automatically mdadm.conf file [20:25] oh ok [20:25] Troy, o you think if I edit mdadm.conf with a live cd and configure the correct partitions and raid arrays, should it boots normally? [20:25] i would also check your grub config too [20:25] ok [20:25] make sure it's boot from the right partition [20:27] ok it's what I'll check tomorrow [20:27] thanks for the advice === cpg is now known as cpg|away === cpg|away is now known as cpg [21:20] new to linux/ubuntu server here: sorry if this is a stupid question: When I start a process on then command line...How do I get it to drop back to command line and not stay in the running process?
