barrydk | Good morning Maaz | 05:10 |
superfly | hi barrydk | 05:45 |
barrydk | Ah there is life Morning Superfly | 05:48 |
superfly | barrydk: yup, just on the train at the moment... was chatting with a friend up till now | 05:49 |
barrydk | Ok is it the Gau | 05:50 |
superfly | no, it's the metro | 06:00 |
barrydk | Ok | 06:03 |
superfly | barrydk: I don't live near the Gau... it would take a few days drive to get there | 06:17 |
barrydk | where are you Superfly | 06:18 |
superfly | barrydk: where do you think? | 06:20 |
barrydk | No idea | 06:20 |
Kilos | morning superfly barrydk and others | 06:21 |
barrydk | If it's a few days to get to the Gau then it must be higgher up in Africa but i don't know if they have metro. | 06:22 |
barrydk | Morning Kilos | 06:22 |
superfly | morning Kilos | 06:23 |
superfly | evidently the only place in South Africa that people live in is Gauteng | 06:33 |
Kilos | thats a strange statement | 06:34 |
Kilos | what i missed | 06:34 |
barrydk | Im trying to guess where Superfly live. He said it would take him a few days drive to get to gauteng as he is using the metro train. So either he is driving an oxwaggon or he doesnt live in Sa but i dont know if they have metro in Africa | 06:36 |
Kilos | lol | 06:37 |
Kilos | barrydk, you have a car? | 06:40 |
barrydk | Yes Kilos | 06:42 |
Kilos | what car barrydk ? | 06:42 |
barrydk | Ford Saphire and a Toyota Hilux | 06:42 |
Kilos | ok 15 hours drive going fast with only petrol and pee stops | 06:43 |
Kilos | more than speed limit fast | 06:44 |
barrydk | And i can get to annywhere in SA within a few days. | 06:44 |
Kilos | yip | 06:45 |
barrydk | So Superfly is in the Cape and drive an oxwaggon when he's not using the metro. | 06:45 |
Kilos | lol | 06:51 |
Kilos | oxwagon would take weeks or months | 06:52 |
superfly | barrydk: I needed to drive the oxwagon so that you could catch up to me :-P | 06:52 |
Kilos | hahaha | 06:52 |
Kilos | fulla beens today | 06:53 |
Kilos | beans too | 06:53 |
barrydk | a car would only take a day not a few days. | 06:53 |
superfly | barrydk: sure, if you drive like a maniac | 06:54 |
barrydk | Are yoy close to the see Superfly | 06:54 |
Kilos | superfly, in sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces to add nameserver 8.8.8.8 8.8.8.4 must there be a , after 8.8.8.8 | 06:55 |
superfly | barrydk: 3 things: (a) my nick is "superfly" not "Superfly", (b) it is "you", not "yoy" and (c) it is "sea", not "see" | 06:56 |
superfly | and to answer you unasked question, Yes, I am always this grumpy | 06:56 |

My spelling is much better in afrikaans and for the grumpy part get some coffee. It is such a lovely morning i have to pull someones leg. I'm also grumpy now cause i mis the sea. | 07:03 |
superfly | barrydk: coffee only enhances the grumpiness | 07:03 |
inetpro | barrydk: just use the tab | 07:06 |
Kilos | barrydk, you are using xchat right? | 07:06 |
Kilos | type the first 3 letters of a nick and use tab | 07:07 |
inetpro | barrydk: after typing Sup just press tab and it will complete superfly | 07:07 |
barrydk | to do what inetpro. Yes kilos. Ok | 07:07 |

magespawn | hey mazal | 07:57 |
superfly | hi mazal | 07:57 |
mazal | How can I export my database list to a txt document ? | 07:57 |
mazal | I know how to get my database list inside mysql , but how to export that list ? | 07:58 |
superfly | mazal: ah, mysql | 07:58 |
superfly | mazal: first present the facts, then ask your question | 07:58 |
mazal | I tried "show databses > /home/username/filename.txt | 07:58 |
mazal | Without the " | 07:58 |
superfly | mazal: you using the mysql command line client? | 07:59 |
mazal | Correct | 07:59 |
superfly | it's not bash | 07:59 |
mazal | All I want is the name of my databases in a txt file | 07:59 |
superfly | mazal: copy and paste :-P | 07:59 |
mazal | Can't | 08:00 |
mazal | I'm in puty | 08:00 |
superfly | mazal: you can, even on PuTTY | 08:00 |
mazal | Right-click don't work and ctrl-C aborts the mysql session | 08:00 |
superfly | mazal: as soon as you've selected in PuTTY, it is copied into your clipboard | 08:01 |
mazal | I just select ? | 08:01 |
superfly | yuhuh | 08:01 |
mazal | Wow , ok , is it putty that is so cool ? | 08:03 |
magespawn | i did not know that either | 08:03 |
Kilos | hi Vince-0 theblazehen | 08:04 |
mazal | Wow , so everything I select is automatically copied. This is a nice trick man !!! | 08:04 |
superfly | mazal: it's just copying Linux | 08:05 |
Vince-0 | Hi! | 08:05 |
mazal | Ok , so I have my smb.conf , crontab.txt , userlist.txt , databaselist.txt , backup sh files | 08:05 |
mazal | What else would I need to redo server | 08:05 |
mazal | Oh and the data itself I do have of course | 08:06 |
superfly | hi Vince-0 | 08:06 |
superfly | mazal: /etc, /var/lib or so, home directories maybe | 08:07 |
mazal | All home folders I will backup | 08:07 |
mazal | I have no special mounts so fstab backup not needed | 08:08 |
mazal | hmm , I can't think of anything else | 08:08 |
mazal | Databases will be backed up to .sql files | 08:10 |
* mazal thinks of anything else | 08:10 | |
mazal | Hi Vince-0 | 08:10 |
theblazehen | hi kilos | 08:17 |
magespawn | hey theblazehen | 08:21 |
theblazehen | hi magespawn | 08:23 |
Kilos | hmm | 08:40 |
magespawn | peer got you Kilos | 08:44 |
Kilos | hehe some ifconfig killed me | 08:44 |
Kilos | nm couldnt connect again | 08:45 |
Kilos | so pulled a windows trick | 08:45 |
magespawn | restart | 08:48 |
Kilos | yip | 08:53 |
Kilos | i hate following instructions from the net | 08:56 |
Kilos | some work and others kill me | 08:56 |
mazal_ | barrydk, amper klaar , brand nou die iso | 09:00 |
barrydk | reg so | 09:00 |
mazal_ | Wish us luck guys , we about to redo our main production server :P | 09:00 |
Kilos | good luck you two | 09:01 |
barrydk | Good luck Mazal | 09:01 |
mazal_ | lol | 09:01 |
mazal_ | Why couldn't I think if this last wekk !!!! ai | 09:01 |
mazal_ | I don't suppose there's a way to transfer all user accounts hey guys ? Will have to re-create them all ? | 09:03 |
Kilos | wont a backup remember them? | 09:04 |
Kilos | or cp everything | 09:04 |
mazal_ | That's the data , I'm talking about the accounts themselves | 09:04 |
Kilos | they must be saved somewhere | 09:04 |
Kilos | save that file too | 09:04 |
superfly | Kilos: that's why you never believe anything that is written on the Internet, especially by Ubuntu users | 09:05 |
Kilos | superfly, i try not to bother you guys more than is necessary | 09:05 |
Kilos | often its to fix what ive broken from following the net stuff | 09:06 |
mazal_ | Ok ek's oppad barrydk | 09:08 |
=== magespawn_ is now known as magespawn | ||
magespawn | there are a couple of sites that i use that are fairly reliable | 09:15 |
magespawn | but i also cross reference a lot | 09:16 |
Kilos | whatever killed my pc the other day killed my server as well | 09:18 |
Kilos | cant boot today | 09:18 |
Kilos | grrr | 09:18 |
magespawn | wonder what it was | 09:20 |
Kilos | i dunno just glad it didnt kill you too | 09:21 |
Kilos | server is a major job without internet | 09:21 |
Kilos | and i didnt save where it must find sticks etc | 09:22 |
Kilos | grrr | 09:22 |
Kilos | remember had to mkdir /media/external | 09:22 |
Kilos | maybe ill first try boot-repair from maverick | 09:24 |
Kilos | oh | 09:25 |
Kilos | eish | 09:25 |
Kilos | dont think it will work because i wont be able then to boot from server and run boot-repair | 09:39 |
Kilos | sigh | 09:39 |
Kilos | yay it booted | 09:44 |
Kilos | yoohoo | 09:44 |
magespawn | cool Kilos | 09:48 |
Kilos | maybe i should install boot-repair on it | 09:49 |
Kilos | from here | 09:49 |
Kilos | hehe | 09:49 |
Kilos | i like ssh | 09:49 |
magespawn | does boot-repair work without a gui | 09:49 |
magespawn | ssh is pretty cool hey | 09:49 |
magespawn | now you can use sftp to move files securely too | 09:50 |
Kilos | you can start it from cli but it opens a small window so i dunno | 09:50 |
Kilos | sftp? | 09:50 |
Kilos | file transfer process? | 09:50 |
Kilos | secure? | 09:50 |
Kilos | Maaz, define sftp | 09:51 |
Maaz | Kilos: SFTP Screened Foiled Twisted Pair [cable] (UTP, TP) , SFTP Simple File Transfer Protocol (RFC 913) | 09:51 |
Kilos | ah Simple File Transfer Protocol | 09:51 |
Kilos | i like simple | 09:51 |
magespawn | actually i thin it is secure file transfer protocol | 09:52 |
magespawn | s/thin/think | 09:53 |
Kilos | this is a bad unity install text in pidgin is so tiny and i cant change it | 09:53 |
Kilos | grrr even with myunity | 09:53 |
magespawn | at the moment i do not have unity on any of my machines so have no idea | 09:56 |
Kilos | hehe | 09:56 |
Kilos | happy new year cocooncrash | 10:15 |
superfly | scp is slightly better than sftp if you just want to copy files without running a file manager | 10:16 |
Kilos | does one install file managers on a server or just do things via cli | 10:17 |
magedroid | hey second power cut for today | 10:36 |
Kilos | yeah ugly | 10:36 |
magedroid | just annoying. | 10:37 |
Kilos | not if you upgrading | 10:37 |
magedroid | was busy repiaring a pc, factory reinstall | 10:38 |
Kilos | then i becomes a hassle | 10:38 |
Kilos | ai | 10:38 |
magedroid | yup | 10:39 |
magedroid | so we sit instead | 10:39 |
mazal | Can someone help me with an ssh problem please. From a linux pc I can ssh into the server , but from my Win 7 pc with putty I just get the error "Server unexpectedly closed connection" | 10:46 |
mazal | Unable to connect with putty at all | 10:46 |
magedroid | mazal are they on the same network? | 10:53 |
mazal | Yep magedroid | 10:53 |
mazal | Same lan | 10:53 |
magedroid | do you enter the username and password as you log in or are they saved in putty? | 10:54 |
mazal | It doesn't even get that far to ask for username , doesn't connect at all | 10:54 |
magedroid | maybe the ssh config resticts the login, but not sure how | 10:54 |
mazal | Only happens from putty on the win box | 10:56 |
mazal | Linux box can connect | 10:56 |
magedroid | strange | 10:56 |
superfly | Kilos: no, SFTP is a kind of a file manager that copies stuff between your local machine and the remote one | 10:57 |
superfly | scp is less complicated, and therefore easier to use | 10:57 |
magedroid | thats magedroid for have no idea | 10:57 |
mazal | Always something that don't work and have to irritate one | 10:57 |
Kilos | ah ty superfly | 10:57 |
superfly | mazal: Win7 firewall settings | 10:57 |
magedroid | long time since i used putty, can really remember what i did to get mine to work | 10:58 |
mazal | superfly, it's off | 10:58 |
magedroid | antivirus firewall? | 10:58 |
mazal | And it connects fine to my other two ubuntu servers | 10:59 |
mazal | Just the new one that doesn't work | 10:59 |
superfly | mazal: correct IP address? | 10:59 |
mazal | yep | 10:59 |
superfly | mazal: make sure you're not using a domain name or host name when you connect via either | 10:59 |
mazal | I always connect via ip | 11:00 |
magedroid | rubber duck yourself through the setup | 11:00 |
magedroid | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_duck_debugging | 11:01 |
magedroid | courtesy of superfly and inetpro i think | 11:02 |
superfly | mazal: and are you *sure* your linux box is connecting to the correct server? | 11:04 |
mazal | Yes I am superfly | 11:04 |
magedroid | can you ping the server? | 11:05 |
mazal | yep | 11:06 |
mazal | And open it's web sites | 11:07 |
superfly | mazal: on the Win7 box too? | 11:07 |
mazal | Yes superfly | 11:07 |
mazal | It's only ssh not working | 11:07 |
superfly | sounds like a Windows issue to me | 11:08 |
mazal | But why does it connect fine to my other 2 ubuntu servers then ? | 11:09 |
superfly | mazal: try flushing the DNS cache maybe? Irunno | 11:14 |
mazal | Have now idea how to do that | 11:22 |
magedroid | on the windows machine ipconfig /flushdns | 11:24 |
magedroid | you could also try trace route from both machines | 11:27 |
inetpro | mazal: check the putty Event Log | 11:42 |
inetpro | right-click on the PuTTY window title | 11:42 |
mazal | I THINK we have resolved it | 11:43 |
mazal | But now the whole server crashed | 11:43 |
mazal | We have added our 2 pc's in the /etc/hosts file | 11:43 |
mazal | Then Barry could connect | 11:43 |
mazal | But now the server crashed completely | 11:44 |
mazal | Will get back to this one | 11:44 |
mazal | inetpro, I only get the options "close" and "move" when I click the window | 11:47 |
inetpro | hmm... | 11:48 |
inetpro | mazal: perhaps you have an old version of putty? | 11:53 |
mazal | 0.62 | 11:53 |
Kilos | whew that Putty is a serious tool hey | 11:56 |
Kilos | http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/faq.html | 11:56 |
mazal | I now have to wait for the huge data copy to finish so I can reboot the server and see if it works now | 11:57 |
mazal | Networking has crashed , dunno why , but the data copy is going on so will leave it now until that finishes | 11:57 |
Kilos | eish | 11:58 |
mazal | Hy try my geduld | 11:58 |
mazal | Moet mos altyd so gaan , niks kan net reg werk nie | 11:59 |
inetpro | mazal: to be honest I have never used the event log in putty | 11:59 |
inetpro | perhaps it is part of an addon | 11:59 |
* inetpro read about it at http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/07/10-practical-putty-tips-and-tricks-you-probably-didnt-know/ | 11:59 | |
inetpro | 0.62 seems like it is the latest version | 12:01 |

Kilos | inetpro, was counting down yesterday nlsthzn | 13:02 |
nlsthzn | lol, I was in the big city to I forgot about it a bit | 13:02 |
tuxmaster | new ubuntu phone yesterday, passed matric today , the worlds by oyster tomorrow | 13:03 |
nlsthzn | congrats tuxmaster | 13:03 |
Kilos | haha | 13:03 |
Kilos | well done | 13:03 |
superfly | nlsthzn: lots of hype over nothing much. | 13:03 |
tuxmaster | thank you, thank you | 13:04 |
nlsthzn | superfly, the canonical way (but the interface and some of their ideas are cool.. coming to a google devioce near you soon :p | 13:04 |
nlsthzn | talking of android... what a PITA to get my phone back to stock sheeese (so much easier to root and install custom roms :p) | 13:04 |
superfly | nlsthzn: I haven't rooted yet | 13:05 |
superfly | nlsthzn: a few small irritations, but using the Launcher app from the Play store has solved *most* of the irritating things about the Samsung launcher | 13:05 |
nlsthzn | root is safe enough... but there isn't a custom rom that has all my hardware working properly... always something or other glitchy (at least stock it works) | 13:06 |
nlsthzn | I purchased nova launcher just when I got mine, I like it | 13:06 |
nlsthzn | I am now downloading a stockish rom to flash, then odin might be able to install the real rom without issues... because I have a rom that basically makes my s3 a nexus device odin thinks it is a nexus and wants to use the nexus kernel or something and not the s3 kernels I downloaded (facepalm) | 13:08 |
nlsthzn | http://socloseyoucanalmostbobbleit.com/ <--- this was almost the announcment | 13:11 |
tumbleweed | tuxmaster: \o/ | 13:13 |

Kilos | hi smileee | 15:08 |
Kilos | eeee | 15:08 |
smileee | hi Kilos :D | 15:09 |
Squirm | evening | 16:06 |
Kilos | hmm | 16:06 |
Kilos | hi Squirm | 16:06 |
Kilos | Trix[a]r_za, wanted to chat about the redhat course | 16:07 |
Squirm | he could have sent me a whatsapp | 16:10 |
* Squirm shrugs | 16:10 | |
Kilos | hell most likely be back | 16:10 |
Squirm | we run an irc server together. so he will be | 16:10 |
Kilos | ah | 16:11 |
Kilos | where is the server? | 16:11 |
Squirm | what do you mean by that question | 16:11 |
Squirm | the physical location, or the address | 16:11 |
Kilos | where physically | 16:11 |
Kilos | im trying to work out what servers are actually for | 16:12 |
Kilos | and where and how they do what they do | 16:12 |
Squirm | one is in Michigan, US, the other in Paris | 16:12 |
Kilos | as in , i have server running here and can ssh it but dunno what else to do | 16:13 |
Squirm | the one in Michigan is a small, dedicated server. the one in Paris, we just have a shell account on someones server | 16:13 |
Kilos | eek | 16:13 |
Kilos | do you hire space on them or what | 16:13 |
Squirm | the dedicated server, is actually a whole server | 16:13 |
Squirm | we kind of, rent a server in a data center | 16:14 |
Squirm | the shell account, is like what magespawn did for you. create an account on someone else's server | 16:14 |
Kilos | oh i see | 16:15 |
Squirm | we just run bnc, ircd, janus, few bots | 16:15 |
Kilos | but what does one do with that shell account | 16:15 |
Kilos | few bot? | 16:15 |
Kilos | whew | 16:15 |
Squirm | it runs an ircd | 16:15 |
Squirm | and a bot, i think | 16:15 |
Squirm | that shell account we got for free from one of our chatters | 16:15 |
Kilos | ah | 16:16 |
Squirm | I think, as a speed test. I downloaded the Ubuntu desktop distro under 5min | 16:16 |
Squirm | so 700mb | 16:16 |
Kilos | wow | 16:16 |
Squirm | that's on the shell | 16:16 |
Kilos | 733 | 16:16 |
Squirm | the dedi is not as fast | 16:16 |
Squirm | so they don't do much | 16:18 |
Kilos | explain nicely , do you have a kinda chat thing on one that peeps logon to then you all chat? | 16:19 |
Squirm | Kilos: what do you mean? | 16:19 |
Kilos | what does the server do? | 16:19 |
Squirm | ircd | 16:19 |
Squirm | irc server | 16:19 |
magespawn | Kilos server are good for two broad things storing files/info and running programs, usually one that do things automatically or for other people to use. | 16:20 |
Kilos | running programs like what magespawn ? | 16:22 |
Kilos | oh as in ian uses one to store cctv | 16:23 |
Squirm | Kilos: main ones, I guess are internet, email | 16:24 |
Squirm | user accounts | 16:24 |
Squirm | internet being, website | 16:24 |
magespawn | or a mail server, webserver like we were talking about before | 16:24 |
Squirm | we run a proxy server at the school, basically monitors and filters out bad webpages before passing them on to the student | 16:25 |
Kilos | ah | 16:25 |
magespawn | or for online games like world of warcraft | 16:25 |
Kilos | ah | 16:26 |
Squirm | Kilos: think of what services you use over the net | 16:27 |
Squirm | skype | 16:27 |
Squirm | mxit | 16:27 |
Squirm | msn messanger | 16:27 |
Squirm | jabber | 16:27 |
Kilos | yes but i mean a personal server | 16:27 |
magespawn | this irc | 16:27 |
magespawn | you store files on it so that you access them from another machine | 16:28 |
Kilos | im trying to see the advantage of having your own server | 16:28 |
magespawn | servers generally do not get switched off | 16:28 |
Kilos | have you worked out how to ssh through a 3g yet | 16:29 |
Kilos | as in can you ssh my server | 16:29 |
magespawn | well i use one at home to store music, movies and pictures so that if the wife want to watch a movie we can while the kids watch something different | 16:29 |
Kilos | oh Squirm my bot greets on my channel | 16:29 |
Kilos | had some help from my friends | 16:29 |
magespawn | you would have to find a way to get your external ip address | 16:30 |
Kilos | aha | 16:30 |
Squirm | nice | 16:30 |
magespawn | then we can do it | 16:30 |
magespawn | but will be slow and if you do a lot you could eat up the gigs | 16:30 |
Kilos | yeah was just interested | 16:31 |
Kilos | as in i could put stuff on it for ian and he can fetch rather than use ubuntu0ne or dropbox | 16:32 |
Squirm | Kilos: the nice things about those external servers. is you upload it ONCE and people can download it MANY times. so you only use your bandwidth to upload. | 16:34 |
Kilos | yeah | 16:34 |
Kilos | but i have nothing anyone but ian could use | 16:34 |
Kilos | like mb drivers | 16:35 |
