| tshauck | Hi, I'm trying to use an ubuntu ec2 instance and cloudinit to copy files from s3 to the instance, but it isn't working… what's the best way to diagnose the issue | 01:24 |
|---|---|---|
| sarnold | "isn't working" is vague -- what specifically doesn't work? | 01:24 |
| tshauck | sorry - so the files aren't getting copied over from s3 to the instance | 01:26 |
| sarnold | do you get any errors or warnings anywhere along the process? | 01:26 |
| tshauck | No, I tried checking the cfn-init and cloud-init logs, but didn't notice anything | 01:27 |
| tshauck | although I'm a neophyte at this | 01:28 |
| tshauck | I tried it with the standard amazon ami and it worked | 01:28 |
| sarnold | tshauck: does it matter if the instance is up and running or spun down or ..? (I'm newer at it than you, hehe) | 01:29 |
| tshauck | ya… don't know, I mean the whole idea of cloud formation is to start up the instance with the config of the cloud formation | 01:32 |
| === n0ts_off is now known as n0ts | ||
| sarnold | tshauck: so, both amis were spun down when doing the cloudinit? | 01:33 |
| tshauck | there was only one instance, cloud formation takes a template then using cloudinit to startup the instance | 01:35 |

| gerbilcabbagehai | U.S.12.04 , How do I check if the server can view the internet via CLI | 04:06 |
| gerbilcabbagehai | for that matter, what do i type to see what packages are installed on the server? | 04:08 |
| Guest98952 | this room is dead bro | 04:09 |
| Tohuw | gerbilcabbagehai: Define "view the the Internet". If you mean testing to see if it can reach networks across the WAN, a ping test never hurts: ping 8.8.8.8 or ping google.com (assuming a DNS client is configured). | 04:09 |
| gerbilcabbagehai | true | 04:09 |
| Tohuw | gerbilcabbagehai: To view installed packages, try dpkg --get-selections | 04:09 |
| Guest98952 | tohuw how do you get the address lik www.yoursite.com | 04:10 |
| Tohuw | Guest98952: Register a domain with a registrar, then point the domain to something. A registrar's site often has helpful guides on this process. Try www.namecheap.com. | 04:10 |

| Tohuw | gerbilcabbagehai: If you want to list files a page at a time, try ls | more | 04:14 |

| gerbilcabbagehai | alright, ill take a step back, how can i see if my server box is connecting to the router? | 04:18 |
| Tohuw | gerbilcabbagehai: The best first step is probably to see the current active configuration of the network interfaces. Check man ifconfig | 04:19 |

| Redoubt | Is there a reason that, in the my custom preseed file, I cannot access /cdrom ? | 12:52 |
| Redoubt | As a simple example, take the following late_command: preseed/late_command string df > /target/home/df.txt; ls -Rl /cdrom > /target/home/cdrom.txt; ls -Rl /target/media/cdrom > /target/home/target_cdrom.txt\ | 12:55 |

| Redoubt | The only part of that command that works is the df. And the result of the df do indeed show /cdrom! The Ubuntu Server install tells me that command fails, and neither of the other two files contain any text | 12:56 |

| smoser | maybe jdstrand knows that | 13:15 |
| hallyn | smoser: i think you're supposed to be able to do that - not specify dhcp? | 13:18 |

| jdstrand | smoser: remove the default network, or have it autostart | 13:43 |
| smoser | hallyn, xkvm is just some crappy thing i wrote. | 13:44 |
| jdstrand | smoser: rather, not have it autostart | 13:44 |

| smoser | it just wraps kvm but does tap networking and teardown more easily. | 13:44 |
| jdstrand | smoser: actually, that is more than you want | 13:44 |
| jibel | smoser, yw. thanks for the fix. | 13:44 |
| smoser | jdstrand, i'm confused. | 13:45 |
| smoser | see bug. i was wanting to run my own dns (bind) on that network | 13:45 |
| jdstrand | smoser: you want a libvirt managed network with no dns or dhcp. what I suggested gets rid of the network (and by extension, dbs and dhcp), but that is too much | 13:45 |
| smoser | and my own dchp. i was just wanting to have libvirt create it so it would bring it up on startup and do the NAT stuff. | 13:46 |
| smoser | jdstrand, right. its nto the 'default' network that was a problem. | 13:46 |
| smoser | it runs one on my crafted network explicitly. | 13:46 |
| hallyn | smoser: of course, i fail to see how writing libvirt network xml is easier than just creating your own bridge by hand | 13:47 |
| smoser | its easy to create the bridge, yes. | 13:47 |
| ninjix | smoser: hah. I ran into the same dnsmasq/user problem with libvirt the other day | 13:47 |
| smoser | but then i have to: | 13:47 |
| smoser | a.) have it come up on boot | 13:47 |
| smoser | b.) do the NAT | 13:47 |
| jdstrand | smoser: so, people have often done this by using a bridged network, but that gets rid of nat. I've not done what you are requesting, but you can look at http://libvirt.org/formatnetwork.html | 13:47 |
| hallyn | trivial, see lxcbr0 | 13:47 |
| smoser | so i have to write my own upstart job | 13:48 |
| hallyn | yup | 13:48 |
| hallyn | well no | 13:48 |
| hallyn | i've done it with /etc/network/interfaces before | 13:48 |
| smoser | you're suggesting that is easier and preferred over using an existing documented tested supported solution. | 13:48 |
| smoser | network/interfaces doesn't support NAT | 13:48 |
| smoser | that i know of | 13:48 |
| smoser | and that means i have to edit that file | 13:48 |
| hallyn | no, but it supprots running scripts after it come up | 13:48 |
| smoser | so anyway... i decided to use libvirt because it sure seems easier to me. | 13:49 |
| hallyn | and no, i'm not saying you should have to do that. just saying you and i would have done it differently :) | 13:49 |
| hallyn | not excusing the libvirt bug | 13:49 |
| smoser | additionally, i actually *want* libvirt running. | 13:49 |
| smoser | as i'm going to use it to power on and off nodes | 13:49 |
| smoser | but i still think just the creation of the network and nat is more straight forward by declaring it and saying "bring that up on boot" | 13:50 |
| smoser | than writing upstart jobs and fiddling with /etc/network/ | 13:50 |
| hallyn | <shrug> that's all in your biased descriptions :) | 13:50 |

| hallyn | pmatulis: saw that - thanks, i'll take a look in deatil later today | 13:55 |
| hallyn | smoser: well it's isc-dhcp-server responsible, or what? | 13:55 |
| smoser | hallyn, i dont think so. | 13:55 |
| hallyn | doesn't it handle next-server? | 13:55 |
| smoser | why would you think isc-dhcp-server is responsible. | 13:55 |
| smoser | oh. sorry. | 13:55 |
| smoser | isc-dhcp-server is *told* to use that address by maas (which i consider a bug in maas) | 13:56 |
| smoser | and its easily fixable by telling it 'next-server' of the bridge. | 13:56 |
| smoser | but it should work anyway | 13:56 |
| smoser | and clearly pxeboot downloads the pxelinux.0 content from that tftp server, so it *can* get there. | 13:56 |
| hallyn | is there an option to tell it 'use whatever address belogns to the interface'? | 13:57 |
| smoser | probably not. | 13:57 |
| smoser | but that wouldn't be necessarily desireable anyway | 13:57 |
| hallyn | i dunno, if you tell isc-dhcp-server to use the other addr, i'm not sure asking it to second-guess is right | 13:57 |
| smoser | i very well might want to run a tftp server on a separate host (and network) from my dhcp server. | 13:58 |
| hallyn | of course | 13:58 |
| smoser | and thats essentially what i'm doing. | 13:58 |
| smoser | (when misconfigured) | 13:58 |
| hallyn | but you segragated networks are really nothing out of the ordinary | 13:58 |
| smoser | right. | 13:58 |
| hallyn | so there must be a standard way to handle this | 13:58 |
| smoser | i think it "should work" | 13:58 |
| hallyn | and you can't say "on eth0, use ip1, on eth1, use ip2" ? | 13:59 |
| smoser | i'm confused. | 13:59 |
| smoser | yes. | 13:59 |
| smoser | i can make this work | 13:59 |
| smoser | but i think it should work without that. | 13:59 |
| smoser | it seems to me that pxelinux is freaking out. | 14:00 |
| hallyn | when you say 'pxelinux' you mean tftpd-hpa? | 14:00 |

| smoser | rbasak, i agree, but what i cant figure out is how such a bug would exist | 14:06 |
| smoser | as this seems not at all an uncommon setup | 14:06 |
| hallyn | smoser: set one up physically and see what it does | 14:07 |
| rbasak | smoser: can you check the exact number of zeroes in the request that it does make? | 14:07 |
| smoser | its the SYSUID | 14:07 |
| smoser | rbasak, | 14:07 |
| rbasak | yeah, but is it, or is it a corrupt pointer pointing to the middle of memory that holds the SYSUID? | 14:08 |
| smoser | right. thats also possible. | 14:08 |
| rbasak | eg. off-by-one going off the end of the IP address string and into the next one that happens to be the SYSUID | 14:08 |
| rbasak | hence I wanted you to count the zeroes :) | 14:09 |

| rbasak | I disagree with some of that. "In general, do not write your passwords down, and if you must, keep them in a secure place (Do not put them on a sticky note attached to your monitor for example)." for example | 14:33 |

| jamespage | Daviey, it all looks a bit crud to me | 14:36 |
| Daviey | jamespage: Yeah, but that is what we have to deal with :) | 14:36 |
| roaksoax | zul: when you upgrade, and the previous config file differs from the new one (due to user modifiying it). it asks whether you want to replace it, or not do anything, etc | 14:36 |
| zul | roaksoax: not off the top of my head samba might be one | 14:37 |

| WormDrink | hi | 15:04 |
| WormDrink | someone installed ubuntu desktop on a headless server here - I cleaned up most things thats not needed - like X, and networkmanager and dbus - but should I have acpid running ? | 15:05 |
| WormDrink | also - something is setting cpu cpufreq/scaling_governor scaling to ondemand | 15:06 |
| WormDrink | what is this and how do I stop it ? | 15:06 |
| ogra_ | why would you want to stop it | 15:07 |
| WormDrink | cos I suspect it set cpufreq/scaling_governor to ondemand ... | 15:07 |
| WormDrink | and maybe did some other things which is highly innappropriate on a server | 15:08 |
| ogra_ | yes, thats a default in every modern distro nowadays | 15:08 |
| * patdk-wk loves using cpu scaling on his servers | 15:08 | |
| ogra_ | its not inappropriate at all | 15:08 |
| patdk-wk | I defently don't want to be burning/heating at 130w's per cpu, all night long | 15:08 |
| ogra_ | yeah | 15:08 |
| ogra_ | or waste the energy it takes to keep it hot when idling | 15:09 |
| patdk-wk | if the server has to respond in realtime to something, sure | 15:09 |
| patdk-wk | but that normally isn't the case | 15:09 |
| ogra_ | and that would likely require even deeper changes | 15:09 |
| ogra_ | like a specially built kernel | 15:09 |
| WormDrink | ogra_, not in gentoo ;) | 15:11 |
| ogra_ | heh, gentoo | 15:11 |
| WormDrink | patdk-lap, ogra_ - there is marked performance drops when using ondemand | 15:12 |
| ogra_ | what are you serving ? stock data in a bank ? | 15:12 |
| WormDrink | building a project on my laptop takes 2x as long with ondemand | 15:12 |
| ogra_ | then there is something wrong with your laptop | 15:12 |
| WormDrink | nope | 15:12 |
| WormDrink | you can do some tests yourself - there is something wrong with ondemand | 15:12 |
| ogra_ | anyway, up to you, just disable ondemand, but never upgrade again | 15:12 |
| WormDrink | wow ubuntu is quality stuff | 15:13 |
| ogra_ | (since the defaults will be restored on upgrades for tha, given it is utter nonsense and extremely energy wasting (and CPU killing) to use preformance) | 15:13 |
| patdk-wk | you could work on uninstalling, and keeping it removed and all that | 15:13 |
| patdk-wk | but it's so much easier to just disable it in the bios | 15:14 |
| ogra_ | if your bios offers that, yeah | 15:14 |
| patdk-wk | I haven't seen one that doesn't | 15:14 |
| ogra_ | and i doubt it would be fun uninstalling the initrscripts package or keeping it uninstalled (if you can even get rid of it without bricking) | 15:15 |
| patdk-wk | also odd | 15:15 |
| patdk-wk | none of my ubuntu server have any cpu scaling installed | 15:15 |
| patdk-wk | using normal instal | 15:15 |
| patdk-wk | but then, they are also all virtual machines | 15:15 |
| patdk-wk | so probably not used for them | 15:16 |
| ogra_ | dpkg -l |grep initscripts | 15:16 |
| patdk-wk | orga_: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors | 15:16 |
| ogra_ | what about it ? | 15:17 |
| patdk-wk | well, if it doesn't exist, oviously it can't be used :) | 15:17 |
| ogra_ | ah, yeah, but thats a kernel thing | 15:18 |
| patdk-wk | and the kernel controls cpu scaling | 15:18 |
| ogra_ | might be that the vm kernels have no scaling | 15:18 |
| ogra_ | WormDrink, but since you know so much about governors, why dont you just add the runes needed to /etc/rc.local to force performance | 15:24 |
| epinky | Hello, I'm getting an odd message [ldap] bind to localhost:389 failed: Can't contact LDAP server, but in my /etc/freeradius/modules/ldap I have another IP(not localhost) configured. | 15:25 |
| ogra_ | (its not like it is secret how to do that) | 15:25 |
| WormDrink | ogra_ I just did update-rc.d ondemand disable | 15:25 |
| WormDrink | seems to have worked | 15:25 |
| ogra_ | until next upgrade | 15:25 |
| WormDrink | yes yes - next upgrade wont be gentoo ;) | 15:26 |
| ogra_ | update-rc.d isnt for admin use | 15:26 |
| WormDrink | I mean will be gentoo | 15:26 |
| WormDrink | ubuntu isnt for use | 15:26 |
| ogra_ | rather mv around the K links | 15:26 |
| ogra_ | WormDrink, well, for people that know what they are do ubuntu is fine, for people wanting to turn ubuntu into gentoo its probably not | 15:27 |

| rbasak | Just changing latest quantal maas-enlist, cloud-init and your ephemeral image generator now | 15:40 |
| rbasak | changing? | 15:40 |
| rbasak | testing | 15:40 |
| smoser | rbasak, how'd that go? | 16:05 |
| rbasak | smoser: still on it | 16:06 |
| rbasak | it takes ages for the generation thing to run. probably because of qemu | 16:06 |
| hallyn | jdstrand: actually i think this is different - the 1, function 3 has no_hotplug set an dis not being deleted. it's 1, function 2 (which is the usb bridge) which is being unplugged, and causing the assert failure. | 16:13 |
| rbasak | smoser: it's got through to d-i now, so the ephemeral image must be good. Thanks! Looks like it's using the latest cloud-init and maas-enlist, and the only hack is the mountall from the PPA that I built for armhf by hand | 16:31 |
| rbasak | smoser: so the next step: can we get a precise ephemeral image with this fix? | 16:32 |
| smoser | rbasak, well.. yeah, thats a bit more of a PITA | 16:32 |
| smoser | as a lot of stuff has to go back. | 16:32 |
| smoser | slangasek was handling the moutnall fix, but he's out all this week on holiday | 16:33 |
| smoser | so i'm tempted at the moment to build quantal daily ephemeral images with that ppa as it is. | 16:34 |
| smoser | rbasak, how do i get arm ppa build? | 16:34 |
| smoser | if i do that, then i can build you dailies with the only non-archive thing being that ppa and the mountall. | 16:34 |
| jdstrand | hallyn: ah, so maybe a different issue. still 'just a bug' which we should try to get fixed before release. should adjust qrt then for now | 16:35 |

| jgriffith | smb: Or would a recap be helpful? | 16:58 |
| smb | heh | 16:58 |
| smb | jgriffith, Well I am reading the report right now | 16:58 |
| jgriffith | smb: K... in a nut shell | 16:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: Performing a dd if/dev/zero to an LVM device sometimes hangs | 16:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: In the case of an LVM snapshot device it almost always hangs | 16:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: Usually when this happens the entire system is locked up and I can't do anything | 16:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: I just so happen to have one now where the system is responsive, so I thought it might be useful to debug | 17:00 |
| smb | jgriffith, So you say you would sometimes see it on a plain lv, too, just not that often | 17:00 |
| jgriffith | smb: Initially I thought I would *never* see it on plain LVM | 17:00 |
| jgriffith | smb: But this morning it looks like that may have changed | 17:00 |
| xnox | jgriffith: deleting lvm volume does not zero it out. | 17:01 |
| jgriffith | smb: It's possible that this is slightly different, but it seems it must be related | 17:01 |
| jgriffith | xnox: correct | 17:01 |
| xnox | jgriffith: I use lvm volumes as hard-drives for libvirt-manager | 17:01 |
| jgriffith | xnox: We're sending a dd command before lvmremove | 17:01 |
| jgriffith | xnox: the dd command is what hangs | 17:01 |
| xnox | and boy I was surprised when *fresh* volume had old partitions "resurrected" | 17:02 |
| jgriffith | xnox: :) | 17:02 |
| smb | jgriffith, Hm, ok. So next question is a) is this a bare metal host or a vm and b) is the vg on local disks or something like iscsitarget | 17:02 |
| jgriffith | xnox: Thus the dd before we remove | 17:02 |
| xnox | I fixed bugs in debian-installer now to work around that =) | 17:02 |
| jgriffith | smb: This happens to be on a VM, I've reproduced on bare metal as well | 17:02 |
| xnox | jgriffith: I would set oflags=direct or whatever it is, to set directio | 17:02 |
| jgriffith | smb: It's a loopback device to a local file | 17:02 |
| jgriffith | xnox: done | 17:02 |
| xnox | because lvm device is not really a block device. | 17:02 |
| xnox | hmmmm | 17:02 |
| xnox | jgriffith: strace & file a bug report. | 17:03 |
| smb | xnox, Not true lvm lv's are block devices. not physical ones though | 17:03 |
| xnox | smb: ok. But I wish I new the i/o difference between lvm, md, SSD, spinny drives, scsi... | 17:04 |
| jgriffith | smb: http://paste.openstack.org/show/21027/ | 17:05 |
| xnox | because kernel does handle it differently and mdadm had a lot of work on trim support and i/o optimisations.... | 17:05 |
| patdk-wk | heh? trim in mdadm? | 17:05 |
| jgriffith | smb: and a portion of kern.log http://paste.openstack.org/show/21028/ | 17:05 |
| patdk-wk | or do you mean trim support for device-mapper? | 17:06 |
| xnox | patdk-wk: i think the later but I'm not sure =) i'm just lurking on the linux-raid mailing list ;-) | 17:06 |
| jgriffith | smb: So I tried running apport, but got honked a bit | 17:06 |
| jgriffith | smb: Can try again if it would be helpful? | 17:06 |
| smb | jgriffith, not sure those io error look good... later its definitely waiting for some request to complete... | 17:07 |
| jgriffith | smb: Yeah, and I'm pretty sure it's the dd which hangs forever | 17:07 |
| jgriffith | smb: It's interesting because usually when I'd see this the entire kernel would hang and the system was useless | 17:07 |
| jgriffith | smb: This is the first time I've been able to do anything on the system when this happens | 17:08 |
| jgriffith | smb: I made the mistake of killing the dd commands that were in progress... | 17:08 |
| jgriffith | smb: They did in fact die, but lvm commands still hang | 17:08 |
| jgriffith | smb: So it seems that whatever it is that's going on it just throws LVM into a complete tizzy | 17:09 |
| smb | jgriffith, Ah well, so here the lvdisplay tries to read from one lv (meta-data) which hangs. Can be a result from the dd breaking the device rq | 17:09 |
| jgriffith | smb: makes sense | 17:10 |
| jgriffith | smb: So How the heck do I use this apport in console mode? | 17:10 |
| jgriffith | smb: I'm at the login/register screen | 17:10 |
| jgriffith | smb: I made the mistake of using vi commands... that was *no bueno* | 17:11 |
| smb | Hm, there was a way to write the info to file... though that might run just into the same problem of accessing the bad device | 17:11 |

| smb | zul, jgriffith Hm, wonder if cat /sys/block/<dev>/inflight would be >0 and not going down... | 17:27 |
| zul | i can find out | 17:28 |
| zul | smb/jgriffith: ok maybe not easily | 17:37 |
| jgriffith | zul: :( | 17:38 |
| zul | jgriffith: devstack is taking forever | 17:39 |
| smb | zul, jgriffith Depending on ways to cause an unhandled NMI or sending sysrq triggers https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/CrashdumpRecipe may be helpful on gathering info. At least I would try that when reproducing tomorrow (as my today reaches its end) | 17:39 |
| zul | smb: ok ill see what i can do | 17:40 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb Here's an psuedo script of what we do: http://paste.openstack.org/show/21029/ | 17:41 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb Some things need filled in with the count and size blah blah blah | 17:41 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb But this is the basic sequence at any rate | 17:41 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb One thing to note, it is more readily producible IF your volume size is 2 Gig or greater | 17:42 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb less than 2G it's a bit harder to hit | 17:42 |
| smb | jgriffith, Sure. Looks like something to work on. Will that go into the bug report? | 17:42 |
| jgriffith | zul: smb One thing this leaves out is the iscsi target creation but I don't think that should matter | 17:43 |
| zul | jgriffith: can you add the script to the bug report so we can document it | 17:43 |
| jgriffith | smb: Yes, I can add a link to the paste in the bug | 17:43 |
| smb | jgriffith, probably better do paste it as a comment. I do not trust paste links to remain... | 17:43 |
| smb | Hm so iscsitarget (of some kind) _is_ involved here | 17:44 |
| jgriffith | smb: Yes, on the create, we then create an iscsi target for the lvm device | 17:45 |
| jgriffith | smb: Suppose that could be related, but it seems I found soem bug reports on google about devmapper snapshot devs and dd kernel hangs | 17:46 |
| smb | jgriffith, Certainly could be some factor. It sounds more plausible to loose a request that way. I would certainly try a setup backed by a local disk first. Since that gets rid of complexity if it also shows the problem | 17:48 |
| zul | smb: this is my /sys/block/dm-1/inflight when deleting the snapshot: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1217211/ | 17:48 |
| jgriffith | smb: Yeah, and the thing is the iscsi target is deleted before this dd command is sent | 17:48 |
| smb | But if that does not and only the iscsitarget setup has it, then it may allow to get rid of device-mapper iin that | 17:48 |
| smb | jgriffith, o_O What is then backing the volume? | 17:49 |
| jgriffith | smb: ? | 17:49 |
| smb | zul, Definitely a lot of inflight | 17:50 |
| jgriffith | smb: The backing file is still present, we just no longer have it mapped ot an iscsi tgt | 17:50 |
| jgriffith | smb: Unless I'm mistaken on the sequence... | 17:50 |
| smb | jgriffith, If the setup is <lv>+<snapshot> --> <vg> --> <iscsitarget> then you could not remove iscsitarget and expect writes to anything of the vg to work. | 17:51 |
| jgriffith | smb: I believe it's <vg>---> <lv> ---> <iscsitarget> ---->snapshot | 17:57 |
| jgriffith | smb: No iscsi target is created for the snap BTW | 17:57 |
| jgriffith | smb: So the snapshot_delete is <dd if=/dev/zero> ---> lvremove snapshot | 17:58 |
| smb | jgriffith, Ah ok, that makes more sense than what I was thinking. So the iscsi device is exported from the snapshot (iow top of the stack) | 17:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: yup | 17:59 |
| smoser | Daviey, it is still not there? (ubuntu-cloud-keyring) ? | 17:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: errr... | 17:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: Actually no, we don't do any iscsi target work with the snapshot at all | 17:59 |
| jgriffith | smb: we require you do a create from snapshot to go that way | 18:00 |
| jgriffith | smb: The snap is never exported... we would do a create from snap <lvm-snap> ---> <new lvm> ---> <export iscsi> | 18:00 |
| jgriffith | smb: Sorry.. have to run, catch up with you later, or tomorrow if you're around | 18:02 |
| adam_g | isn't the original LV that backs a snapshot required to exist and be ACTIVE? | 18:02 |
| smb | jgriffith, Probably mixing up the names. But I guess what is done is to export something via iscsi that is the part one can modify and then gets discarded after usage. | 18:02 |
| smb | jgriffith, Ok, yeah. I try to have tried looking into it by then | 18:03 |
| Redoubt | Can I preseed selections in the "install additional software" window? | 18:09 |
| Redoubt | I can obviously pkgsel/include whatever I want, but I would just like to preselect openssh server | 18:10 |

| mcb_ | Using Ubuntu 10.10, I made a disk image from a server to an external driver. Reinstaled grub in the external drive (chroot used), changed the UUIDs in /etc/fstab and in /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

In Ubuntu, Grub loads OK, but it hangs just after, with no erro message, just the blinking cursor in the left upper conner of the screen. I can | 20:03 |

| NcA | Any reccommendations for a parallel ssh client on Ubuntu? I'm needing to run commands on 5+ boxes simultaneously | 21:24 |
| SpamapS | NcA: heh... parallel-ssh comes to mind ;) | 21:29 |
| NcA | I checked it out, to elaborate a bit further... I'm trying to run sudo commands, so something interactive is preferred, as I need to auth with ssh, then when commands run | 21:31 |
| NcA | pssh just takes args and goes | 21:31 |

| SpamapS | NcA: sudo? authing ? you sure you want to do this? | 21:32 |
| NcA | SpamapS: I fail to see the issue? If I'm connected to multiple servers via SSH, passing a password via the encrypted stream... | 21:33 |

| hallyn | do you see them? what am i missing? | 21:44 |
| ahs3 | hallyn: hrm. haven't looked. libnl-3-dev or libnl3-dev libnl-dev would be what i'd search for, tho | 21:45 |
| ahs3 | whups -- not libnl-3-dev; that's an unlikely name; are you sure they've been uploaded to experimental? | 21:46 |
| hallyn | ahs3: well, not absolutely. they've been in ubuntu for quite some time | 21:49 |

| hallyn | hm, so maintainer would be Heiko | 21:52 |
| sarnold | NcA: if the machines are really intended to be part of a cluster, could you just get ssh keys that allow you to log in directly as the user account that needs to be authenticated? | 21:52 |
