[10:15] <overrider> i have about 10 machines running the same version of ubuntu 10.04LTS, quite easy to administer; now i am replacing one of them with new hardware. Put 12.04LTS on it, or stick with 10.04LTS for its quite nice to have all machines sort of in sync configuration wise...?
[10:40] <overrider> ah well
[12:12] <hallyn> stgraber: hey, was playing with lp:~serge-hallyn/ubuntu/quantal/lxc/lxc-qp, which has a patch to look for 'lxc.autodev = 1', and if that's found create a bare /dev.  Basically works, except the list of devices is not complete - upstart is failing
[12:14]  * hallyn out
[12:21] <stgraber> hallyn: ok. Another way of doing it would be to iterate through the host's /dev and copy any entry that matches what we have in the device cgroup config
[12:21] <stgraber> that should be the providing everything the container needs without copying all of /dev in the process
[12:21] <stgraber> not sure how easy it'd be to implement this though
[12:23]  * stgraber -> out
[12:30] <hallyn> stgraber: i take that back - the container is booting fine.  i just lose track of the consoles.  will have to figure out why later
[14:10] <Aison> this bug is really bad :(  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc-dhcp/+bug/1071928
[14:10] <Aison> my whole dhcp is no longer working :(
[15:08] <hackeron> hey, I have an issue with ubuntu 12.04 running under xen - when I try to start rsyslogd, it just hangs and doesn't respond to anything except kill -9 - I tried to run it in debug mode with rsyslogd -f /etc/rsyslog.conf -c5 -dn -- it then starts logging just fine, but if I remove the -d option, it freezes again :/ - any ideas how to debug or what could be causing this?
[15:20] <koolhead17> party time!!!
[18:09] <storrgie> I'm running a couple 12.04 servers and I noted recently that my Linode (which is 12.04) is on kernel 3.5.2 where as the ones I manage and let update from official sources are on 3.2.0. Am I not updating properly?
[18:18] <patdk-lap> storrgie, linode and other vps providers are not real servers
[18:19] <patdk-lap> therefor you can't depend on anything matching or working the same
[18:47] <maxb> They're not *physical* servers. They're quite real in the sense that they will serve things
[19:21] <IanWizard-Cloud> I'm trying to setup Dovecot, and I've gone through, and gotten it all setup, and when I start it, it doesn't open any ports.  No errors, nothing in logs, it just says that it started.  It is running, but doesn't open any ports.
[19:37] <guntbert> IanWizard-Cloud: was there a tutorial you followed? did you seehttps://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/dovecot-server.html ?
[19:37] <guntbert> oops https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/dovecot-server.html
[19:48] <RoyK> !dovecot
[19:48] <RoyK> !email-server
[19:49] <RoyK> !mail-server
[19:49] <RoyK> !dovecot-imapd
[19:49] <guntbert> !mailserver
[19:50] <guntbert> RoyK: thats exactly where I already pointed him to :)
[19:57] <IanWizard-Cloud> guntbert: I followed the guide on the dovecot wiki.  I'll go through this though.  I like to think I'm competent enough to get it working, but I'm being proven wrong quickly :P
[19:58] <guntbert> IanWizard-Cloud: I didn't doubt your competence :) - but its easier if we have a common page to check against - and the one from server guide always worked for me
[20:53] <IanWizard-Cloud> guntbert: would you believe, I only had the core installed, not the actual imap / pop daemons?
[20:53]  * IanWizard-Cloud <ashamed>
[21:03] <IanWizard-Cloud> ugh, I feel so stupid.  Anyway, thanks guntbert :)
[21:10] <guntbert> IanWizard-Cloud: no worries - thats what guides are for :) - glad you got it working!
[21:35] <Guest51565> does anybody know how to configure lamp
[21:36] <[conrad]> Guest51565: http://ubuntuserverguide.com/2012/05/how-to-install-lamp-server-in-ubuntu-server-12-04-lts.html , http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-apache2-with-php5-and-mysql-support-on-ubuntu-12.04-lts-lamp
[21:36] <Guest51565> does that say how to use it to
[21:38] <[conrad]> Guest51565: You'd have to better define "how to use it" for me to provide a better response, but ultimately full coverage of all the functionality for the respective software is available in their online docs.
[21:38] <maxb> LAMP is so many things that asking how to configure 'it' is a question that cannot be answered in anything should of a book
[21:39] <Guest51565> im talking about the languages does it walk you through where they should be installed
[21:41] <[conrad]> Guest51565: Not quite sure I follow. The links ( especially the second ) literally provide step-by-step instructions for the installation.
[21:41] <IanWizard-Cloud> maxb: it varies by "language".  You can usually just install them from the repos and be fine.  I'm sure both links above cover that.
[21:44] <Guest51565> what about the directories does it define where you put the distinct  files
[21:45] <maxb> Guest51565: You seem to be approaching this with some odd preconceptions, on Ubuntu most software is packaged and you don't need to think about where to put files when installing it
[21:51] <Guest51565> no not when installing it i mean when thr packages are installed like where to put the files to display a page on html or php
[21:54] <Zanzacar> does anyone know how to access a svn repository from outside your home network? I tried #svn but didn't get a response
[21:55] <Zanzacar> been looking around online and haven't found anything specifically
[22:00] <cocoa117>  how do u make ubuntu go to sleep when idled?
[22:05] <maxb> Zanzacar: It's really really easy if you already have a ssh server running/accessible - do you?
[22:40] <Zanzacar> maxb: yes I do
[22:42] <Zanzacar> maxb:  I wanted to use netbeans to access everything so I managed to do the http version via netbeans but I need to figure it out for connections outside my home
