riz0nHello. I have an Ubuntu 12.04.1 server running, and I am getting cron emails daily /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin: http: GET http://sa-update.dnswl.org/1423347.tar.gz request failed: 500 Can't connect to sa-update.dnswl.org:80 (Bad hostname): Can't connect to sa-update.dnswl.org:80 (Bad hostname) LWP::Protocol::http::Socket: Bad hostname 'sa-update.dnswl.org' at /usr/share/perl5/LWP/Prot00:52
riz0nocol/http.pm line 51.  What has happened, and what do I need to change to fix this? Thanks.00:52
TheLordOfTimesa-update.dnswl.org:80 (Bad hostname)  <--- is that a valid hostname?00:53
riz0nI would hope so, its part of Spam Assassin.00:53
TheLordOfTimei think your system's not resolving its hostname right00:53
sarnoldcan you ping it? or connect with wget, w3m, lynx, curl, etc?00:54
TheLordOfTimefrom your server, that is.00:54
* TheLordOfTime confirmed its up from his system here00:54
sarnoldme, I get NXDOMAIN. So. :)00:54
riz0nYes I can ping it from the server.00:54
riz0nTrying to do wget now00:55
ablyssaccidentally installed the debian package "javascript-common".  If your javascripts stop working all of a sudden, more than likely you installed this horrible, vile, inate idea of crap too.00:55
riz0nI was able to wget http://sa-update.dnswl.org/1423347.tar.gz from the server as well.00:56
sarnoldtry sticking the wget command you just used into a file in cron.hourly or something -- at the next hour, (darn, just missed the lsat one), you'll be able to see if running via cron influences the ability to do name lookups01:00
riz0nI'll give it a shot.01:02

TaylorJohnsonHi guys. I'm having trouble with oubount HTTP connections (apt-get/wget/etc) with my IPTABLES configuration. This is my configuration file: http://pastebin.com/LYwp5YHf Is there anything obvious that sticks out as being incorrect? DNS resolves perfectly fine and inbound originated HTTP works fine too.04:58
lickalottall, my server has been randomly going "offline".  3x in the last two days.  I've checked the syslog but didn't see anything that jumped out at me.   I rebooted it this morning and it was fine, at about 4:00 i was unable to reach it (across the network).  When I hit a button on the keyboard nothing happens (the monitor shows an empty black screen.  I hit the reset button on the case and05:18
lickalottit acts like it's going to reboot but nothing happens.  The only way it comes back is if I cold boot it.05:18
lickalottWhere else would I look to find out whats happening?05:18

arieli wanna know how to setup a server and configure it11:39
RoyKariel: it all starts with a CD and a machine, or perhaps setup a VM ... it's not learned in an hour, or a week, or a year, but little by little, you'll understand more and more...11:45

arieli know the learning curb is at a slow pace a just wanted to get to know the little details11:48

ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience11:50
arieli wanna know if its good to install ubuntu server via vm or full install11:55
RoyKariel: that obviously depends what you need12:06
arieli have a computer with a 200gb hard drive is this enough12:08
RoyKariel: yes, you need far less for a base install12:12
RoyK~1-2GB should do12:13

tboatso 371 people all just lurking?13:15
freesbieoffcourse :)13:15
tboatwell that is so very helpful13:16
freesbiesorry, might be that the .pl file is missing the execute bit for the package scripts to run properly13:16
tboatNeed help with 12.04 server, samba is broken. http://paste.ubuntu.com/1452244/13:17
tboatso is that something i can find, or is it broken in the repo?13:17
freesbiehavent touched samba on ubuntu, but that looks like a basic error13:17
tboatwell...what i dont get is all i did was update kernel and packages, samba wasnt even listed, now it is broken13:18
freesbiestart by checking if /usr/share/samba/setoption.pl is executable and run the apt-get purge again13:19
tboatso apparently perl isnt installed?13:20
tboatmaybe my server got hit, because i didnt remove perl, and i dont see why updates would have removed it13:21
ewooktboat: what do you get by running 'perl -v'13:21
Picibug 988509 seems to be related13:22

tboatyes thank you, i found similar bug pages but none pertaining to the .pl file13:23
ewooktboat: try looking at the launchpad bug, perhaps there's a easy fix like chmod +x on the setoption.pl13:23
tboathmm it appears the samba4 package is broken in the ubuntu repo, so i guess i have to build samba3 from source?13:27
ewooktboat: samba4, isn't that still experimental?13:29
ewook!samba413:30
Picitboat: the 'samba' package is samba3.13:30
ewookthere we go.13:30
Piciewook: #ubuntu-server and #ubuntu have the same factoids, no need to ask ubottu in both channels.13:30
ewookPici: Doh..13:33
ewookthanks ;)13:33
samba35RoyK: hi13:36
tboat@ewook @Pici samba4 is experimental, but anytime I try to do "apt-get install samba" it says i need to do "samba4"13:40
tboathmm but after removing samba4, it seems to have gone back to samba3 now13:41
tboatok so just installed samba3, however when i do "samba -v" it says samba is not installed13:43
tboatbut proccess smdb and nmdb are running13:43

LuizAngiolettiI've just installed and configured an apt-cacher. My client machines are all collecting their updates from my server.20:29
LuizAngiolettiWhen I run 'apt-get upgrade' on my server, apt downloads all the packages again, although they are already available from the cacher.20:30
LuizAngiolettiIs it healthy to set the 01proxy file under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ on the server?20:30
