| VonKranke | I just finished installing my ubuntu server and have a problem with the framebuffer mode it's set on my console display. The text is VERY tiny (around 160 columns) and is only using the top 25 lines of the screen. Is there a way I can (re) set the console video mode? | 03:58 |

| pmp6nl | Hello, I enabled SFTP only, but I temporarily need to use just FTP. Is there a good way to do this? Running Ubuntu 12.04 thanks. | 04:41 |
| escott | pmp6nl, no | 04:46 |
| pmp6nl | escott, its that complicated? Its not just a setting in a file? | 04:46 |
| escott | pmp6nl, you would have to install and configure an ftp server. which is an insecure and broken protocol | 04:50 |
| pmp6nl | escott, oh, sftp is that different than ftp? | 04:51 |
| escott | pmp6nl, yes | 04:51 |
| escott | pmp6nl, sftp is an ssh server talking ftp | 04:52 |
| pmp6nl | escott, ah. Ya. I figured you could just disable ssh for a few minutes and use standard ftp | 04:52 |
| escott | pmp6nl, no need to disable ssh | 04:52 |
| pmp6nl | ok | 04:53 |
| pmp6nl | thanks | 04:56 |

| gregor_ | Hello, I want my ubuntu 12.04 server to automatically shutdown if there is no ssh activity | 11:42 |
| gregor_ | Maybe someone could help me? | 11:42 |
| gregor_ | .. | 11:50 |
| StevenR | gregor_: can you be a little more specific on what you require? | 11:55 |
| JanC | StevenR: literally it means he wants his server to shut down immediately after boot ;) | 11:57 |
| gregor_ | I want it to shutdown after midnight and there were no connections in the past hour | 12:09 |
| gregor_ | I already found a little thread in askubuntu.com, but maybe you know more :) | 12:09 |
| imminentCucumber | question about system load -- wget seems to have a huge effect on my system load. Right now I'm downloading and the load is 14. When the download is done, system load goes back down to .3 or so. What can I check on this? Google searches seem to only produce results about people having problems with Desktop. | 12:38 |

| Dioxin | It is feasible to use apt-mirror on non-debian based repositories? | 13:51 |
| orogor | hi here | 13:57 |
| orogor | i am looking for ideas on which services would be interesting to provide on a small vpn between friends | 13:58 |
| orogor | anyone has an idea? | 13:58 |
| Dioxin | google is your friend, lots of options there, not had personal experience tho | 13:59 |
| Dioxin | OpenVPN is probably the Ubuntu supported option | 14:01 |
| orogor | i was thinking about tinc , to avoid the need for a central gateway | 14:02 |
| yeats | Dioxin: re: your apt-mirror question - I would seriously doubt it (but I don't know your use case) | 14:02 |
| Dioxin | TinyCoreLinux is the repo I wish to host locally on an Ubuntu Host | 14:05 |
| === n0ts_off is now known as n0ts | ||
| RoyK | tinc looks interesting ;) | 14:25 |
| orogor | found this too http://www.p2pvpn.org/ | 14:27 |
| orogor | the basic for the network would be 3-5 peoples which are computer knowledgable or sysadmin | 14:29 |
| orogor | i was also thinking on providing maybe a vm image with a few softs installed | 14:30 |
| orogor | a bit different , i found this too http://wanproxy.org/ | 14:32 |
| orogor | it s network deduplication | 14:32 |
| patdk-lap | heh? openvpn doesn't require a centeral gateway | 14:35 |
| patdk-lap | I use it in p2p mode more often than client/server mode | 14:36 |
| orogor | hoo | 14:36 |
| patdk-lap | there is always ipsec though | 14:36 |
| patdk-lap | I have craploads of ipsec tunnels | 14:36 |
| orogor | how does it work when you add new nodes ? where it get the config info for reaching other nodes? | 14:38 |
| patdk-lap | that is left for the user to do | 14:39 |
| orogor | haaa p2p has in point to point | 14:39 |
| patdk-lap | sounds like you don't want a p2p vpn, but an adhoc vpn mesh | 14:39 |
| orogor | we speak of p2p as in peer to peer | 14:39 |
| orogor | yup a mesh network | 14:39 |
| * patdk-lap sticks with his openvpn/ipsec tunnels with bgp/ospf running on them | 14:40 | |
| orogor | i fell like it s too much complexity | 14:43 |

| [conrad] | Hello everyone. Is it possible to configure DHCP to *only* serve static IP's via MAC? I'm able to do what I need via dhcpd.conf, but I can't seem to disable other MAC's from picking up an IP as well. | 19:00 |
| Patrickdk | sure | 19:03 |
| Patrickdk | I guess, not sure how you configure a protocol though | 19:03 |
| [conrad] | Patrickdk: What that response to me? | 19:04 |
| Patrickdk | na, the other guy asking about dhcp | 19:05 |
| [conrad] | Patrickdk: You didn't specifically mention my name or DHCP. I just recently joined the room. You could have been talking to anyone. | 19:05 |
| === furian is now known as shantorn | ||
| shauno | [conrad]: assuming isc-dhcp-server, "deny unknown-clients;" is your google-fodder (I don't have an example in context, but I'm positive google does) | 19:10 |
| [conrad] | shauno: Thanks. I was trying to tinker with the range setting, but to no avail. | 19:11 |
| shauno | I think it works if your pool is only big enough for the reservations you have listed, but that's a side-effect and not to be trusted, allow/deny are intended for this | 19:13 |
| patdk-lap | remove the range completely | 19:14 |
| patdk-lap | if you only want static | 19:14 |
| [conrad] | shauno , patdk-lap . Thank you both very much. | 19:15 |

| axisys | what is best way to add ~audit/bin to the PATH of users in admin group? | 21:51 |
| axisys | /etc/bash.bashrc and check for primary group id ? | 21:52 |
| axisys | add it ^ | 21:52 |
| axisys | all have default shell bash | 21:52 |
| escott | axisys, ~/audit/bin may not exist for every user | 21:54 |
| axisys | ~audit/bin | 21:55 |
| escott | axisys, what is ~audit/bin | 21:56 |
| axisys | /home/audit/bin | 21:56 |
| escott | axisys, no it is not. ~/audit/bin you have to have the slash | 21:56 |
| axisys | 16:53:02 < axisys> what is best way to add ~audit/bin to the PATH of users in admin group? | 21:57 |
| axisys | i want to have user audit's bin path available in the admin group's PATH | 21:57 |
| escott | axisys, if you have some user named "audit" it would be better to put that in /usr/local/audit/bin not /home/audit/bin | 21:58 |
| escott | axisys, it is very strange for a user to be running an executable in another users $HOME | 21:58 |
| escott | axisys, and ~ is completely inappropriate for that. ~ expands (when followed by a slash to $HOME) | 21:59 |
| axisys | ok, then how to have /usr/local/audit/bin path available in the admin group's PATH | 21:59 |
| escott | axisys, adding an export PATH= directive to /etc/bash.bashrc is a good way to do that | 22:00 |
| axisys | escott: i want only users who are in admin group to have that in their path.. not for all | 22:00 |
| escott | axisys, so you can test if the output to groups contains admin | 22:00 |
| escott | axisys, also check for sudo because 12.10 uses sudo not "admin" | 22:01 |
| axisys | so if a user is part of admin group, his/her $PATH will have /usr/local/audit/bin in the list | 22:01 |
| axisys | so if a user is part of "foo" group, his/her $PATH will have /usr/local/audit/bin in the list | 22:01 |
| axisys | i guess i can chmod to "foo" group.. so if you are in that group *only* then you can run the bin/script | 22:02 |
| escott | axisys, there is something like that in bash.bashrc already "# sudo hint | 22:03 |
| escott | if [ ! -e "$HOME/.sudo_as_admin_successful" ] && [ ! -e "$HOME/.hushlogin" ] ; then | 22:03 |
| escott | case " $(groups) " in *\ admin\ *)" | 22:03 |
| axisys | escott: sweet! thanks a lot | 22:07 |
| LeChacal | hello, i have manged to muck up my partion table to the point that gdisk and fdisk neither want to do anything, what can I do to get it strait. My end goal is to have the drive reformated with GPT and NTFS | 22:16 |
| lifeless | LeChacal: if you don't care about the disk contents | 22:17 |
| lifeless | LeChacal: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdXXX count=100 bs=65534 | 22:18 |
| LeChacal | lifeless: i have already backedup the stuff i care about, i should mention this is an 8TB hardware RAID 6 array so I don't want to dd the whole thing | 22:18 |
| lifeless | will write zeros over the partition table | 22:18 |
| lifeless | LeChacal: if its md-raid then you'd want of=/dev/mdX | 22:18 |
| LeChacal | lifeless: its an LSI (Dell PERC) card so ubuntu see the array at /dev/sda | 22:19 |
| lifeless | righto | 22:19 |
| escott | LeChacal, how does gdisk describe the partition tables | 22:21 |
| LeChacal | lifeless: thank you, that was quick and easy, i thought i was going to have to do the hole array | 22:22 |
| lifeless | anytime | 22:23 |
| bonez2046 | if I want my linux server to act as samba, file and print server, would the server version work best or could the desktop version suffice? | 22:41 |
| Patrickdk | bonez2046, no difference | 22:42 |
| tonyyarusso | bonez2046: It's just a question of what packages you install. It's the same OS. | 22:42 |
| escott | bonez2046, if all it is is a samba server then start with ubuntu-server | 22:43 |
| bonez2046 | escott: it's one box, not critcal...so I'll load the server version | 22:49 |
