| trimeta | I just noticed that one of my server's hard drives threw some SMART errors a week or two ago. I'm running RAID Z2, so a failed drive isn't immediate cause for concern, and more confusingly my weekly SMART self-test on the drive in question shows no errors. | 01:59 |
| trimeta | I'm wondering if the specific error type might explain the discrepancy, and whether I need to replace the drive ASAP or if I should just keep a closer eye on the situation. | 02:00 |

| carleeno | Hi :-) I'm running 12.04 server and want to automatically issue some terminal commands at startup (just before login). How do I create a script that autostarts? This is what I want to do at startup: http://www.richud.com/wiki/Ubuntu_Fluxbox_GUI_with_x11vnc_and_Xvfb (the lines under "Doing it Separately") Thanks! | 03:12 |
| qman__ | carleeno, simple enough, but make absolutely certain you do not run this exposed to the internet | 03:16 |
| qman__ | it's not safe | 03:16 |
| carleeno | what if i get rid of nopw and instead usepw? | 03:17 |
| qman__ | VNC is not secure | 03:17 |
| qman__ | only access it using a secure VPN or SSH tunnel | 03:18 |
| qman__ | or a trusted local network | 03:18 |
| carleeno | that's what i was about to ask...ssh | 03:18 |
| qman__ | just make sure you don't expose the raw VNC to the net | 03:18 |
| qman__ | that said | 03:18 |
| qman__ | you can create an init script, or just make a script and add it to /etc/rc.local | 03:18 |
| qman__ | make sure your script appropriately de-escalates itself to an unprivileged user | 03:19 |
| qman__ | since both cases run as root if you don't, which is also very unwise | 03:19 |
| patdk-lap | this is why people made nx | 03:19 |
| carleeno | ok, sounds great, I've never written scripts before, I guess I can enter commands into a plain file to create a script? or is it more complex than that? and how to I de-escalate the script from root? | 03:20 |
| carleeno | patdk, can i use free nx to get to a xvfb? | 03:23 |
| carleeno | freenx* sorry | 03:23 |
| qman__ | carleeno, more or less, make sure you have a #!/bin/sh line at the top, and then to de-escalate, use su | 03:24 |
| qman__ | so for example, to put it in /etc/rc.local | 03:24 |
| qman__ | su -c username /path/to/your/script.sh | 03:24 |
| qman__ | actually | 03:24 |
| qman__ | su -c username /path/to/your/script.sh & | 03:24 |
| qman__ | because your script won't be smart enough to fork itself | 03:25 |
| qman__ | /etc/rc.local must exit 0 before the rest of the system loads | 03:25 |
| qman__ | that user should not be able to log in normally | 03:25 |
| carleeno | so even with the fork, that user wont be able to log in? or are you saying I should setup a user account that nobody uses for this script? | 03:28 |
| qman__ | you should set up a user account that cannot be logged into interactively, as in, no password, no shell | 03:38 |
| carleeno | cool, which adduser options would i use to do that, --nologin? any others? | 03:46 |
| carleeno | qman__: thanks for the info, it has helped me allot. have a great weekend! | 03:54 |

| GIant81 | how easy is it to build an ubuntu LDAP/bind/dhdp server and manage it? | 21:18 |
| GIant81 | or is linux LDAP more easily managed with 389? | 21:18 |
