[00:01] sw: Well, I just want to know whether or not it was originally enabled before I started tinkering with it 20 minutes ago, [00:02] elkingrey: by default it'll be installed but won't have rules added [00:04] sw: yeah, just curious if it was enabled or not. === cpg|away is now known as cpg [00:08] I've got a crashed ubuntu server because of some file permissions. Is there a good way to boot to the live cd and get a $ dpkg -l & somehow compile that list so I can install the same programs on the re-install? [00:11] pretend it is a healthy computer - how do I compile a dpkg -list and install it on a fresh install? [00:15] lvmer: $ dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt and then $ dpkg --set-selections < packages.txt and $ apt-get dselect-upgrade [00:15] or something like that, I'm tired [00:16] $ man dpkg and look at --get-selections and --set-selections to be sure === cpg is now known as cpg|away === bigjools_ is now known as bigjools [00:58] where do i report a bug in https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/ubuntucloud.html and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/serverguide/ubuntucloud.html? these pages seem to document the Essex release and not the Folsom release, specially the format of /etc/nova/nova.conf has changed [01:04] I believe my server has being compromised. Apache access.log and error.log is missing Jan 12th === Malediction_ is now known as Malediction [01:07] How do I see if someone actually logged onto my server? access.log has a lot of disconnects from an IP in china === ejnahc_ is now known as ejnahc [01:12] TradeFortress: then they have not logged in [01:13] ok, thanks. is there any reason for missing Jan 12th in Apache logs? other than an attacker removed them? [01:13] isn't the default only weekly rotates? [01:14] TradeFortress, see if they are parsing for php* (blogs,wordpress,sql) setup config files... they will try to get credentials [01:15] ahh, I'm not running a custom script, I'm running a self developed one (which was hacked) [01:15] TradeFortress: if you have any reason to suspect comrpomise, re-install your whole OS resetting all passwords [01:16] ikonia: I'll do that, but then I'll get attacked again.. can't see how they did it with the logs. [01:16] TradeFortress: no, [01:16] the longs won't show much [01:16] TradeFortress: you seem to know what it was already, your script [01:16] and it might show 1 issue, but not all issues you have [01:17] expecially if they used POST requests [01:17] okay, but the attacker somehow got root access.. [01:18] TradeFortress: delete your OS - re-install [01:18] TradeFortress: that is the answer [01:18] if they got root access you have many levels of issues to correct [01:18] and the logs won't show that [01:20] thanks everyone, I'm going to reinstall & look for a pentester [01:25] I just had to reinstall ubuntu-server on the main OS disk. I had 8 other disks in software raid 10 before the re-install. Typing $ mdadm --detail /dev/md0 looks to be perfect. How do I make sure I remount or re-declare this array the right way? [01:26] heh? [01:26] o? [01:27] if you didn't copy over mdadm.conf, then the best shot is mdadm --examine --scan [01:27] lvmer: if the array is started....it's there [01:27] lvmer: you can also put the sattings back in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf [01:27] idk if it is started or not [01:27] check [01:27] or /etc/fstab ? [01:27] err no [01:27] that's a list of mounts [01:27] I don't remember playing with mdadm.conf [01:27] mdadm to query it [01:28] or use /prod/mdstat [01:28] proc [01:29] you lost me [01:29] it's a fresh install, would it be there normally? ps shows mdadm --monitor [01:29] no [01:30] that's just mdadm monitoring the arrays status [01:30] yah [01:30] as I'd expect [01:30] so why are you referencing it ? [01:31] ? [01:31] I want to know if I have to rebuild something or just remount it [01:31] I've just told you to check the arrays status [01:31] proc says it's active [01:31] you said "mdadm --monitoring" is running, [01:31] I told you that's a monitor program [01:31] it is in ps [01:31] you said "I know" [01:31] so I'm waiting to understand why you've just told me that information as it has nothing to do with the conversation [01:31] I'm confused [01:32] what is confusing [01:32] if it's running - you can use it [01:32] check the array status [01:32] if it's not you need to start it [01:32] it is active [01:32] it's useful to create an /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file also [01:32] what is it used for? [01:33] a config file for mdadm's array info [01:33] never used it before [01:33] isn't that auto created? [01:34] not always, but it should be [01:34] hence why it's worth checking it / creating it [01:35] it is already created [01:35] I think the must be an auto install thing [01:35] ok....so checking it is worth while [01:35] all the volume groups and logical volumes and pv's look identical [01:35] why are you referencing LVM ? [01:35] you where talking about a raid array a moment ago [01:35] crazy how everythign is the same... I thought id have to redo stuff [01:36] did you format the raid array ? [01:36] no that could erase info [01:36] I'm recovering a raid10 [01:36] then why are you shocked that the data is there ? [01:36] I'm shocked the vg's are still there [01:36] not the data [01:37] thought that was an OS config [01:37] ok the array data [01:37] have you ever recovered an array before? [01:37] * patdk-lap would hardly call that recovering a raid10 [01:37] yes [01:37] what do you usually do [01:37] "usually" [01:37] what are you talking about [01:37] what has happened to the array ? [01:37] recovering an undamaged array... but thanks for your criticism. [01:38] no-one it criticising you [01:38] I told you already [01:38] lvmer: what has happened to the array ? [01:38] reinstall [01:38] no, you've not [01:38] ok - so nothing has happened to the array [01:38] he reinstalls the os drive, and is remounting the raid [01:38] you are not recovering it [01:38] (1/13/2013 8:29:49 PM) lvmer: it's a fresh install, [01:38] yes, but you also said you are recovering a raid array - you are not [01:38] that is adding confusion [01:38] ok [01:39] what now [01:39] activate the lvm [01:39] I don't understand what you are asking [01:39] add your filesystems to fstab [01:39] done [01:39] there array has no problems [01:39] ah thank you pat [01:39] so what is the problem ? [01:40] sounds like, access to his data, but had no idea how mdadm/lvm/... works [01:40] if it's a clean install though, you do nothing [01:41] the installer will create fstab/start the volume groups etc [01:41] I don't see a problem [01:41] ikonia, existing install of the mdadm raid [01:41] patdk-lap: yeah, the installer will just see an array [01:41] he's done an install ontop of that array.....no problem [01:48] I'm still a noob here. I have 3.5.0-17 headers, is it ok to install 3.5.0-21 headers in addition? I had both before. It seems strange to me though. Idk what headers even are. [01:49] I was going to run a dpkg -l selection file to get all the old programs/libraries === cpg|away is now known as cpg [02:58] is there any way to $ cp -r /etc/* to a smb share folder that I can copy to another computer while keeping all the file permissions the same? Like what if I send /etc/* to a .zip files & change the .zip file permissions, will the inside file permissions still be intact? like 0750 ? etc. [03:42] lifeless: the testrepository package was missing python-tz so everything is kosher now [03:42] zul: cool [03:44] lvmer, a tar archive will store the unix permissions === popey_ is now known as popey === Onii-san|DoYouEv is now known as Onii-san [07:26] ubuntu server 12.04.2 will be based on which kernel version ? === smb` is now known as smb [08:19] samba35, If you install from the 12.04.2 media, you will get a 3.5 kernel. Installing with the release or 12.04.1 image and dist-upgrading keeps you on the 3.2 kernel. [08:27] smb, thanks [09:45] zul, Daviey, adam_g_: I just reviewed all of the cloud-archive bugs FYI [09:46] jamespage: woot! [09:46] thanks [09:46] jodh, thanks for picking up on 'Framebuffers, plymouth, upstart and server installs.' [09:47] Daviey, are we confirmed on the 3.5 kernel for 12.04.2 yet? [09:47] Daviey, just spotted smb's comment above [09:47] jamespage: pretty much looks like it, against my hope. [09:48] Daviey, OK - I need to spend time with openvswitch then [09:48] it won't work with 3.5 kernel at-all with the version we have in 12.04 ATM [09:48] which will break quantum badly [09:48] jamespage: Apparently the kernel team are checking it.. [09:49] Daviey, I would recommend they backport the version we have in quantal [09:49] jamespage: 12.04.2 has been delayed btw. [09:49] its only minor point release [09:49] Daviey, yeah - I saw [09:49] jamespage: does that work with 3.2 ok? [09:49] Daviey, probably [09:49] I've not tested it - but we can do [09:49] * smb had a commend? [09:49] smb " samba35, If you install from the 12.04.2 media, you will get a 3.5 kernel. Installing with the release or 12.04.1 image and dist-upgrading keeps you on the 3.2 kernel." [09:49] Oh that one... [09:50] * Daviey commends smb for resolving the openvswitch issue [09:50] smb, yeah - that one :-) [09:50] Daviey, Not my issue [09:50] smb, actually I could do with a bit of help with openvswitch in raring as well [09:50] smb: I thought Leanne said that your team was working through the dkms issues? [09:50] smb, dkms module is broken again - looks like headers in the linux kernel source have jigged around for 3.8? [09:51] smb, bug 1098650 [09:51] jamespage, If it is not about the in-kernel stuff being not fully enabled functionwise, I have no clue about what problems you may have [09:51] Launchpad bug 1098650 in openvswitch "dkms module fails to build with 3.7/3.8 kernel" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1098650 [09:51] Daviey, Likely those they _know_ about. [09:51] There were some wl issues afaik [09:52] smb: Wait, QA or Kernel team hasn't tried installing all dkms modules in th archive and seeing if they go bang? [09:53] Daviey, Cannot speak for QA but, no [09:54] jibel, who's focussed on 12.04.2 from the QA team? [09:54] Daviey, We expect at least that people providing the dkms modules to test and come back to us as part of the process. [09:55] smb: OK, I think i need to send a mail. [09:57] Daviey, Yes, it would at least make things clear. (hoipfully) I mean there is probably a misunderstanding at least what *all* means. [09:59] And there are probably more dkms modules than we realize [09:59] Yeah, i am realy quite shocked that either kernel or QA team didn't test this. [09:59] jamespage, plars is the QA contact for 12.04.2. For kernel specific issues it is hggdh [09:59] jamespage, I can have a look at the bug you mentioned in a bit [10:02] smb, yes please [10:03] smb, I think the configure check just needs updating but I've not had time to look in full yet [10:04] jamespage, Yeah, either things like that or adding further ifdefs for a more or less slightly changed api in the kernel... [10:17] smb, actually looks like this commit will do the trick: http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openvswitch;a=commit;h=2520f4528742decf78a8b375f5389b50977f5e4b [10:18] jamespage, Looks like something I would expect in that kind of situation [11:24] hi guys [11:25] I was wondering if you could tell me a solution to monitor the internet usage of my network??

Also it sounds like you are already on top of it. Not really anything I could or would do differently here than to sync with a recent version. And it pretty much sounds like you are done with it. [12:59] smb, it looks pretty horrid TBH [12:59] the 1.4.x branch we currently baseline on only supports to kernel 3.3 I think [12:59] so we already carry patches for 3.5; [13:00] I've emailed upstream to ask for some guidance - we might have to take a preview snapshot of 1.9.x [13:02] jamespage, Yeah I can imagine. Everytime I look into network it has again changed a lot. :/ So my feeling would be as well to see whether dropping 3.5 patches and just rebase against their tip for raring is way to go. And maybe hope there is a final 1.9.x before entering freeze on our side [13:02] smb, that will be the trick :-) [13:04] jamespage, At least we promise not to change our kernel version again before release... ;) [13:04] good [13:05] what are some of the application that can allow me to accessm my email account from terminal if let's say i'm emailing myself a fiel or something (gmail) === gary_poster|away is now known as gary_poster === gary_poster is now known as gary_poster|away === gary_poster|away is now known as gary_poster === schmidtm_ is now known as schmidtm === dnat__ is now known as Diegosnat [13:41] hi guys, quick question can I use samba, kerberos and cyrus all together?? === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk [13:56] Diegosnat: don't see why not [13:56] RoyK, cool [13:57] <_ruben> glueing 'em all together might be tricky, but might be doable .. if you want that is unclear tho === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [14:02] was the java vulnerability that is popular right now .. with the exploit for oracle's java, was that vulnerability fixed with openjdk? [14:03] andygraybeal, I believe its in the Oracle Java Web Plugin which is not opensource so is not distributed with openjdk. [14:04] jamespage, okay, i thought the vulnerability was in both, but only the exploit was for oracle's java. and thanks for saying it was the 'web plugin' in particular. [14:05] andygraybeal, I'm not 100% sure - but it won't effect server side stuff anyway [14:05] as the exploit is through java in the browser... [14:06] okay thank you.

[17:27] yes [17:27] well at least lspci | grep ethrnet says :p [17:28] Ethernet* [17:28] let me setup lighttpd first [17:32] RoyK> can you advise how to create a new email user from web [17:34] newlinux: you need an email server that has a web ui. only thing I know that is very userfriendly in that, is zimbra, but it'll require a dedicated setup, usually a VM [17:35] I have ubuntu 12.10 [17:35] I just want to create two users, user1@domain.com, user2@domain.com [17:36] well, either you read the ubuntu docs on setting up a mailserver, or you setup a dedicated VM on ubuntu 12.04 and download zimbra - it's easy to manage, good for newbies, but rather heavy cpu and memory wise [17:36] newlinux: this is a waste of time [17:36] newlinux: just read the docs on cyrus imap or dovecot - it's not hard, but you have to study a bit [17:36] newlinux: you appear to have no basic understanding of how a mail instance works and you don't seem to be reading any of the documentation provided [17:36] just repeating the same question over and over is not acceptable [17:37] ikonia++ [17:40] ok I will try again, im new to linux thats why :) [17:41] Hello there! I want to adjust the terminal resolution... where should I poke? [17:41] newlinux: if you are new to linux, setting up a mail server is not a good introduction [17:41] newlinux: learning linux or other unices takes time - just sit back and read for a while... [17:41] ikonia: it can be a good start - don't scare people ;) [17:41] newlinux: plus being new to linux does not mean you should bypass having an understanding of how a mail serverup works [17:41] it just require patience [17:42] it's too cold in this country! [17:43] move then :) [17:43] nah [17:44] * patdk-wk moves the sun, to make royk happy [17:44] * RoyK sends patdk-wk some akvavit in return [17:48] that reminds me, but alittle depressing [17:49] http://www.nuts.com/chocolatessweets/licorice/finnish/red.html [17:49] damn, it's 1pm all ready, thought it might be 11am [17:52] Does anyone knows how to adjust the terminal resolution? I've tried a code in kernel boot-up: vga=xxxb, but it didn't work. [17:52] hmm, pure sugar, no wonder I love them [17:52] LuizAngioletti, what version? [17:53] I followed some instructions in a link I lost... so.. =) Came to you guys. [17:53] patdk-wk: Ubuntu 12.04 [17:53] most likely you have to adjust it in grub [17:54] doesn't 12.04 use pretty high resolution already, if the GPU is supported? [17:54] it does for me [17:55] RoyK: It does for my netbook, but not for my desktop (with a GeForce GT440) [17:56] LuizAngioletti, Check out http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-desktop-74/ubuntu-console-resolution-947005/ [17:56] patdk-wk: I tried that.. do you know how to find the supported resolutions? [17:57] Zapp: cheking it. [17:58] that is very old intel specific zapp [18:01] not cheking it then. =P [18:02] it might be relevent, but no idea what video chipset you have [18:03] patdk-lap, i'm assuming you know better! But i can not find anyware where it says that its only for intel. [18:06] well, the 915 is a older intel video chipset [18:07] the nomodeset is normally only required when grub has an issue iwth a video card, for me, older intel chipsets [18:08] I checked it and would really ask about what is between the quotes. But patdk-wk has already explained it. [18:09] I run a system with a GeForce video card, I don't think the intel thingy is suitable. [18:09] using the offical nvidia drivers? [18:10] using the opensource driver, it should just work [18:10] using nvidia, I have done it before, but can't remember how [18:10] Ok. [18:10] I'll look a bit harder. [18:10] =) [18:10] thx [18:11] I somewhat think that using non-gpl graphics drivers on a server is a bit dodgy [18:11] * patdk-wk things having a graphics card at all, is kind of silly :) [18:20] LuizAngioletti, This might be relevant? http://wiki.debian.org/GrubTransition#Grub2andtheVGAparameter Or what do you think patdk-lap ? Am i way off again? :) [18:25] Zapp: Thank you. I'll try that and report back [18:25] =) [18:26] zapp, that is the normal way yes [18:26] but I don't believe it worked for the official nvidia drivers [18:28] Is this old? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/lighttpd [18:29] define, old [18:29] up to date for corresponding packages (up to date) [18:29] yes, it's current infomation [18:29] thank you [18:30] frojnd: why lighty? [18:30] RoyK: no need for apache2 [18:30] why not? [18:30] it ueses much less resources than apache2 [18:30] and above all php is fast on it [18:30] why not nginx? [18:31]
