koolhead17hi all11:41
knxvilleHello, I got a ubuntu server running where my 3 video surveillance cameras record to. It takes a picture every second there is movement. This leads to thousands of pictures. Do you guys have any recommendations to sorting these pictures in some way, so it is easier to look through?11:48
knxvilleThis might be the wrong channel, but I have no idea where to ask.. I was thinking of some sort of software that organized the pictures.. At the moment I just made a bash script that zips all pictures, and another that deletes pictures that are 30 days old or older..11:49
rbasakconvert them to video perhaps? Look up mjpegtools, libav, ffmpeg for some tools11:53

=== Kiall is now known as zz_Kiall
=== n0ts_off is now known as n0ts
knxvillerbasak: yeah that might be a solution, problem is, I wouldn't get a timestamp on the video, so you wouldn't know what time of the day it is. I think perhaps a solution would be a script that takes files and puts it in the folders according to what day it is recorded.12:13
rbasakDo you know about http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome ? Does all of this for you. Pretty astonishing that other solutions can't insert timestamps into captured frames!12:15

DoomGuywired problem..I have a server with a fresh with ubuntu 12.04.. the server can ping any machine in the LAN but the clients cannot ping the server until I initiate the pinging from the server15:27
DoomGuycan anybody explain this problem to me15:27
TheLordOfTimefirst question, do you have any firewall rules running?15:28
TheLordOfTimeon the server15:28
TheLordOfTime(might sound stupid, but... :P)15:28
ikoniaDoomGuy: probably a firewall rule that's connection established only, or something like that15:28
DoomGuyTheLordOfTime, No I have no firewall15:29
DoomGuyTheLordOfTime,  ikonia when I restart the server, everything looks OK.. clients are able to ping it15:30
DoomGuybut later on it doesn't work.. I don;t know why15:30
ikoniaDoomGuy: are you sure you have no firewall ?15:31
ikoniaDoomGuy: do the clients have firewalls ?15:31
DoomGuyikonia, nobody has firewall the firewall is the external  ports15:33

ikoniaDoomGuy: what OS is the clients running15:34
DoomGuyikonia, Windows 7, Ubuntu 12.0415:41
DoomGuynobody is able to ping the server15:41
ikoniaDoomGuy: so the windows 7 firewall isn't on ?15:46
ikoniaDoomGuy: can they do anything else on the server, eg use any other services,15:46
thierryhi everyone, i configured an access point on my ubuntu-server image using this tuto ( part 2 http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/tutoriel/wifi_ad-hoc) , the prob is that i see that in my Pandaboard that wlan0 is connected and that iwconfig returns the correct parameters15:50

DoomGuyikonia, I have doubts on physical cable.. maybe it's the real problem.. because when I changed it everyting works fine15:53

highvoltageopenvz is similar to lxc, but they're completely different implementations18:11
resnohighvoltage: whats the major difference?18:12
highvoltageI played with proxmox for the first time last weekend. it's ok. I'd like to do something similar for lxc, at current pace I hope to have something nice'ish by the end of the year.18:12
highvoltageresno: openvz is a huge kernel patch, lxc uses technologies that already exists inside the kernel18:12
resnogotcha18:13
highvoltage(that's pretty much the biggest difference)18:13
highvoltageopenvz will eventually start using more of the lxc stuff itself, but keep the current openvz userspace tools for that18:13

patdk-lapnot really, ispconfig isn't a part of ubuntu22:49
GEMI know, but I do not know where else to go.  I have the ISPConfig manula, but I cannot find where it mentions what ports need to be open.22:50
patdk-lapthat will defently be hard for this channel to answer, as ubuntu doesn't support it, and generally don't recommend using software like that22:51
patdk-lap!ISPConfig22:51
GEMWhy do they not recommend it?22:53
patdk-lapcause they are not distro friendly, they do things their way, and then you cause all kinds of issues is you update anything22:53
patdk-lapif you even get that far22:54
=== cpg|away is now known as cpg

sarnoldGEM: what does ISPConfig _do_? Why do you want to run it? What "native" tools might do the job instead?23:17
Pawkiits always something23:17
GEMWell, first, like I said, I am relatively new to Ubuntu.  It looks as though ISPConfig offers a package that contains an interface for e-mail, websites, etc.  Am I wrong?  Should I really stay way from it?23:25
patdk-lapThey claim they support ubuntu, ubuntu doesn't claim to support it23:25
patdk-lapso you will have to depend on them for your support23:25
GEMGotcha23:28
GEMIt's not that it is a problematic app, it's just not "supported" by Ubuntu.23:28
GEMVecause I tried to Goolge complaints, issues, concerns, etc. about ISPConfig23:29
patdk-lapthose types of apps tend to cause problems23:29

GEMCpanel is better?23:30
sarnoldGEM: what does it mean to "contain an interface for email, websites, etc"?23:32
sarnoldGEM: does it provide something like kmail and chrome?23:32
sarnoldGEM: or does it provide something to write nginx and postfix configuration files?23:32
GEMDon;t know yet23:33
sarnoldGEM: hehe. Well, why do _you_ want it? :)23:34
GEMMy peeps will get a hold of your!  :)23:34
mklappstuhlhey people. I have a machine with a process in state "D" which means "reboot to kill" afaik. I need to kill this process. I rebooted the machine but the process is still there. it even has the same PID23:34
andolGEM: Zentyal might do some of what you are after, perhaps. If nothing else, it is at least included in the repos.23:34
sarnoldmklappstuhl: does that process rely upon a dead disk or unreachable network filesystem mount?23:35
GEMI guess I am wanting a GUI that I can offer to my clients23:35
mklappstuhlsarnold, apparently the machine didnt reboot. at least uptime says so. and yes the process is running on a mounted disk. thats also the reason why I want to kill it23:36
andolGEM: If you are relativly new to these things, do you really want to offer hosting services to others?23:37
sarnoldmklappstuhl: is the process waiting for IO on a dead/dying disk?23:37
mklappstuhlsarnold, lol. I did "reboot" and "shutdown -r now" and I always get the "shutting down" message but it doesnt shut down?!23:37
sarnoldmklappstuhl: hunh, I would hope that after N seconds of waiting politely that the system would reboot regardless.23:38
GEMI am in the learning process, that is why I am asking questions.  I do not intend on offering something I know nothing about.  Never have, never will23:38
mklappstuhlsarnold, Its an lvm volume. I would not saying that it is dying but I tried to use cat on a file of that fs and than trouble started23:38
GEMis cpanel free?23:39
mklappstuhlsarnold, that would be around 120 seconds now23:39
sarnoldmklappstuhl: okay that's plentyh long then. reboot takes a --force option that pokes the reboot(2) system call _directly_. Be careful. Sync and umount all the filesystems yourself before using this. (Be sure to have multiple root terminals open before starting -- you will probably _not_ be able to unmount that wedged filesystem, and it'll probably put that shell into D when you try.)23:41
xnoxGEM: it's free, doesn't mean it's not evil.23:41
* xnox cpanel is the most evil thing you can do to yourself23:41
GEMxnox, I do not believe cpanel is free23:43
GEMI have no problem with free23:44
GEMFree is good23:44
mklappstuhlsarnold, _all_ filesystems? like / and sysfs and proc?23:44
xnoxGEM: hm... wp says it's proprietary23:44
sarnoldmklappstuhl: ah, you can tell my age, I forget about sysfs and friends. :)23:45
* xnox ponders when did I get the idea that cpanel is free23:45
xnoxGEM: php is free, yet evil ;-)23:45
sarnoldmklappstuhl: you can use mount -oro,remount / for root23:45
GEMWho's line is "Free is when you don't have to pay for nothing or do nothing, we want to be free, free as the wind"?23:46
mklappstuhlsarnold, so I ignore sysfs and friends and just leave those mounted?23:47
sarnoldmklappstuhl: yeah, no harm there if those are still mounted.23:47
mklappstuhl"/" is busy ...23:48
mklappstuhlsarnold, how can I remount a busy mount ro?23:49
sarnoldmklappstuhl: that's where the leap of faith comes in, I'm afraid. :(23:50
sarnoldmklappstuhl: just hope that your filesystem is in a fairly stable state before you hit that reboot --force. :(23:50
mklappstuhlsarnold, what about fuser -v -m /23:51
sarnoldmklappstuhl: definitely useful23:52
sarnoldmake sure that you've stopped as many processes by hand as you can.23:52
sarnoldbut at some point I think you may just need to leap an reboot.23:53
mklappstuhlsarnold, wish me luck23:55
sarnoldmklappstuhl: good luck! :)23:55
mklappstuhlsarnold, yeah, ... reboot -f isn't restarting the machine either23:57
sarnoldo_023:58
sarnoldmklappstuhl: is there anything enlightening in dmesg output?23:58
mklappstuhllots of those:23:59
