[00:00] <FUF> Firstly, I'm having trouble booting ubuntu cloud images in kvm/libvirt. I realize the default console is set to ttyS0. Even if I change this to tty0 etc., I don't get a getty prompt to log in.
[00:01] <FUF> How do I log into an ubuntu cloud image on kvm?
[00:13] <FUF> There isn't an sshd listening by default either.
[00:18] <FUF> heh... after all the datasourceec2.py warnings looking for a metadata service, it finally continues to boot and gets to a getty.
[01:34] <blenderman> i want to put a gnome desktop on my ubuntu server and use it remotely
[01:34] <blenderman> how can i do this?
[01:36] <mand0> install gnome?
[01:36] <blenderman> no
[01:37] <blenderman> i mean how would i use the desktop remotely?
[01:37] <blenderman> to open software and things like that
[01:37] <mand0> instead of SSH, VNC to it
[01:38] <blenderman> yes thats what i mean
[01:40] <patdk-lap> vnc or nx or ........
[01:42] <blenderman> ok vnc does just this?
[01:42] <blenderman> allows me to remotely control a desktop?
[01:42] <holstein> blenderman: they are different things.. i would just try them both and see what works for you
[01:43] <blenderman> ok now what's the advantage of using ubuntu server
[01:43] <blenderman> instead of controling an ubuntu distro with gnome with vnc
[02:02] <mand0> cuz command line is better for a server operating system. less overhead, less packages
[02:06] <blenderman> is there something about command line that enables a server to run constantly
[02:06] <blenderman> is it had gnome would you not be able to let it run all the time
[02:09] <holstein> blenderman: ?
[02:10] <holstein> it? you mean, the computer? you can leave it on if you want.. you just leave it one.. the DE or lack of DE has nothing to do with it
[02:11] <blenderman> i guess my question is
[02:11] <blenderman> why are servers left to run all the time
[02:11] <blenderman> while we're supposed to turn desktops off
[02:12] <blenderman> at night
[02:23] <holstein> blenderman: you arent "supposed to".. but you can.. if you dont need to leave it on
[02:23] <holstein> folks leave servers on cause they need to be on, and available
[02:26] <violinappren> Hello. I have a subversion setup served over an Apache host with a self-signed certificate. It was working fine until today (possibly after applying the latest updates.) Now I get this error upon using the command line client: "SSL handshake failed: Secure connection truncated"
[02:26] <violinappren> any ideas?
[02:30] <SpamapS> violinappren: openssl s_client -connect server:port usually shows more useful error messages than other things
[02:30] <SpamapS> violinappren: also check the ssl server log
[02:37] <violinappren> SpamapS: I get the following error in the logs: user root not found: /svn/project1/trunk
[02:38] <violinappren> accessing the URL in the browser actually works, prompts me for HTTP auth over ssl
[02:51] <violinappren>  its a client-side issue, i installed libneon and symlinked libneon-gnutls.so.27 -> libneon.so.27
[02:51] <violinappren> works fine now
[03:17] <sarnold> violinappren: wacky; was the client busted in an upgrade at the same time? or...?
[03:18] <violinappren> sarnold: yes, both are precise machines
[03:19] <violinappren> sarnold: seems  gnutls packages are all going haywire, i get this error now while trying to git clone something from github: error: gnutls_handshake() failed: A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
[03:19] <violinappren>  
[03:21] <sarnold> violinappren: the recent openssl security update busted some specific modes when run on CPUs with AES-NI instructions. The security fix was reverted, and we waited for OpenSSL team to deploy _new_ fixes, and after a few days in the -proposed queue, we shipped those.
[03:21] <sarnold> violinappren: I think I heard Debian's update might have missed the fix. It might be worth looking into it to see if you can find out specifically which combinations break :(
[03:23] <violinappren> its a disaster that openssl packages aren't getting  enough quality control even on an LTS release
[03:25] <sarnold> violinappren: it's a pain to track down when it only trips bugs in one odd mode on specific CPUs :(
[03:25] <sarnold> violinappren: too true, some more comprehensive tests would be keen.
[08:43] <jamespage> bug 1160893
[09:27] <alex88> hi guys, I've an ubuntu server openvz container, which gets the ip from dhcp
[09:27] <alex88> but on boot it doesn't have the default route, if I do dhclient eth0 it has the route
[09:35] <alex88> seems an issue with 12.10, 12.04 works fine
[09:39] <alex88> but running ifdown/ifup works fine
[10:22] <spurious> Hi all, any canonical folks here?
[10:24] <jamespage> spurious, yes
[10:25] <spurious> Hi jamespage, is there a particular channel for AWS specific questions?
[10:26] <jamespage> spurious, here is fine
[10:28] <spurious> I'm having trouble getting hold of the ubuntu AMIs through the AWS API. When I query using the Canonical ID provided on help.ubuntu.com I get a huge list of AMIs, not the 32 listed on the AWS marketplace, and those listed in the marketplace are not in the list
[10:29] <spurious> When I query with the specific AMI ID however, I do get the correct AMI, but there is no Canonical ID in the metadata
[10:30] <spurious> Hence, I guess, it not showing up in the query
[10:30] <spurious> Is there a preferred method for getting the Ubuntu AMIs?
[10:31] <spurious> And also what are the ~350 AMIs that do show up  under the Canonical ID
[10:38] <spurious> jamespage, any idea on how I should proceed?
[10:39] <jamespage> spurious, yes - try https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com
[10:39] <jamespage> its organized by ubuntu release and will give you the correct AMI's for every ec2 region for the official ubuntu AMI's
[10:40] <jamespage> spurious, https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.2/release/ for example
[10:41] <jamespage> spurious, the data on site is is also machine consumable
[10:42] <spurious> jamespage, is there a specific nomenclature for the AMI metadata? I am sourcing AMIs over the AWS API througgh image repository queries
[10:43] <jamespage> spurious, the cloud-utils package for ubuntu contains a 'ubuntu-cloudimg-query' tool which you can use to query this data
[10:44] <jamespage> spurious, the machine readable data is here - https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/query/
[10:44] <spurious> jamespage, unfortunately I'm using the AWS Java SDK in an enterprise product running on RHEL, so I'm not sure I can use the cloud-ing query tool
[10:45] <jamespage> spurious, there is more information on the cloud image query data here - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/Images
[10:46] <jamespage> utlemming, smoser: do we have any cloud image tooling for folks not running ubuntu?
[10:47] <jamespage> spurious, actually thats just a bash script so you can probably run it on anything with bash
[10:49] <spurious> jamespage, one of my dev test boxes is an Ubuntu machine, if I pull down the cloud-utils package from the Canonical repo can I pull out the query sh and run it independently?
[10:49] <jamespage> I think you probably can!
[10:50] <jamespage> spurious, or you could grab it from here - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/raring/cloud-utils/raring/files/head:/bin/
[10:50] <spurious> jamespage, thanks, I'll give it a go. Do you know anything about the original question of why the 32 official AMIs on the Canonical marketplace page don't show up on the provider ID query?
[10:51] <jamespage> spurious, unfortunately no I don't - utlemming might be able to help with that
[10:54] <spurious> jamespage, thanks! utlemming, any input you could offer would be greatly appreciated
[10:55] <jamespage> spurious, np - utlemming is around ~3 hours from now probably (central US)
[10:56] <spurious> jamespage, that's fine, thanks. I'll leave this open and contact him around then. Cheers.
[10:56] <spurious> (or her, shouldn't jump to conclusions)
[11:27] <spurious> jamespage, do you happen to know if the query script is redistributable?
[11:28] <jamespage> spurious, its GPL-3 so yes
[11:28] <jamespage> spurious, its part of https://code.launchpad.net/cloud-utils
[11:28] <spurious> jamespage, great, thanks
[12:04] <smoser> spurious, so, you raise an interesting question about the "marketplace" amis.
[12:04] <smoser> we do not have machine formated data that gets you those ami-ids available.
[12:04] <smoser> utlemming can explain more what the difference between the non-marketplace and the marketplace amis are.
[12:06] <smoser> they are bit for bit equivalent to the non-marketplace ami.
[12:13] <smoser> spurious, i personally would appreciate it if you'd put your interest in using ubuntu-cloudimg-query on RH to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=907756 (see comment 12)
[12:15] <spurious> Hi smoser, it seems that the marketplace amis are solely for use through the AWS marketplace GUI.
[12:15] <smoser> i didn't want to say that.
[12:15] <spurious> The query script, however, works fantastically
[12:16] <smoser> and i'm not certain that there is not a benefit to canonical if you chose to use the marketplace amis.
[12:16] <smoser> it may also imply some sort of suport, i'm not sure. but if you wanted support and you're using the official amis not listed in the marketplace, you can get it.
[12:17] <spurious> if they're bit-for-bit equiv it doesn't really matter that they are different, as long as they are overall queriable for users of the API
[12:17] <spurious> ah, I see what you mean, and indeed the amis in the marketplace do come in 4 versions, normal and then 3 llevels of support
[12:18] <spurious> which is fair enough, that's where the main business is
[12:19] <spurious> somser, the status of that request on rhel is CLOSED ERRATA
[12:19] <spurious> oops, smoser, sorry
[12:19] <smoser> spurious, yeah, as in its "fixed" they've included it (without the ubuntu tools)
[12:19] <smoser> but its fine to comment there.
[12:19] <smoser> just maybe no one will listen :)
[12:20] <spurious> ok, will do. Would love to see this on rhel, a fantastic tool.
[12:20] <smoser> spurious, fwiw, the data that it queries is https://maas.ubuntu.com/images/query/
[12:20] <smoser> and we're working on making improved data available.
[12:21] <smoser> oops. wrong url

[12:22] <smoser> http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/eightprotons/streams/v1/com.ubuntu.cloud:released:aws.js is what you're interested in (aws data).
[12:23] <spurious> smoser, looks good, thanks!

[12:58] <Styler2go> Hello Guys. i have problems with my ubuntu server. since a few days it is getting a very huge amount of "connections through firewall" and "ipconntrack". any idea how i can see whats happening?
[12:59] <patdk-wk_> Styler2go, sure, check the conntrack table
[12:59] <Styler2go> can you tell me how i can do that?
[13:00] <Styler2go> http://styler2go.de/munin/localdomain/localhost.localdomain/fw_forwarded_local-week.png this is the graph where i see the amount...
[13:00] <patdk-wk_> cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack
[13:01] <Styler2go> and what can i do with this table...? i mean.. is it ok that the amount is that high?
[13:01] <patdk-wk_> in that case, no idea
[13:01] <patdk-wk_> cause that just counts packets
[13:01] <patdk-wk_> tcpdump?
[13:02] <Styler2go> http://styler2go.de/munin/localdomain/localhost.localdomain/fw_forwarded_local.html  http://styler2go.de/munin/localdomain/localhost.localdomain/fw_conntrack.html
[13:02] <patdk-wk_> how should we know what is high or low, it's your system, and only you know how it's setup and what is connected to it, and what is expected
[13:03] <Styler2go> i cant explain this huge amount...
[13:03] <patdk-wk_> they are all local connections, so they will show up in netstat
[13:03] <patdk-wk_> maybe your part of the *largest ddos in history*
[13:04] <Styler2go> lol
[13:04] <Styler2go> my server is running as great as everytime
[13:04] <patdk-wk_> and that means?
[13:04] <Styler2go> i dont think its an "attack"?
[13:04] <patdk-wk_> just cause your server is running fine, doesn't mean it isn't attacking someone :)
[13:05] <patdk-wk_> I didn't say you where getting attacked
[13:05] <Styler2go> hmm
[13:05] <Styler2go> how can i defend me?
[13:05] <patdk-wk_> and  I didn't really mean it seriously
[13:05] <patdk-wk_> just the timing of it, with the timing of the latest ddos
[13:05] <Styler2go> i had some ddos attacks in the past, but i dont think this is one
[13:06] <patdk-wk_> I dunno why you won't bother taking anything I say, and look into it though
[13:06] <patdk-wk_> you had some ddos against you? or you where part of the source of a ddos?
[13:06] <Styler2go> i got ddos'd
[13:07] <airtonix_> i like saying ddos
[13:07]  * patdk-wk_ gets tripple dos
[13:07] <patdk-wk_> I perfer 3 d's, bigger is better right?
[13:07] <airtonix_> i thought the term was "Denial Of Service"
[13:07] <patdk-wk_> airtonix_, no
[13:07] <airtonix_> is ddos "Daves Denial of Sanity" ?
[13:07] <patdk-wk_> Distributed Denial of service
[13:07] <patdk-wk_> multible attack sources
[13:08] <patdk-wk_> hard to block
[13:08] <airtonix_> patdk-wk_: not really
[13:08] <patdk-wk_> generally thousands of source ip's, always changing
[13:08] <Styler2go> so you have no idea how to get more informations why its so huge?
[13:08] <patdk-wk_> well, only by taking down your ip or subnet
[13:08] <airtonix_> patdk-wk_: I often find switching the power off to be effective
[13:08] <patdk-wk_> Styler2go, I gave you MANY OPTIONS, you ignored them all
[13:09] <patdk-wk_> airtonix_, then you just created a dos
[13:09] <Styler2go> no
[13:09] <Styler2go> i used your commands
[13:09] <patdk-wk_> so you gave into their goal :)
[13:09] <patdk-wk_> well, you now have the info you need to look into it then
[13:09] <airtonix_> i spose you'd have to be interested first, which i was not
[13:09] <Styler2go> http://pastebin.com/b4HR0YVC for example
[13:11] <Styler2go> maybe i really should restart the server...
[13:11] <patdk-wk_> looks like a lot of web hits from that .dip.t-d..... isp
[13:14] <Styler2go> hmm
[13:14] <Styler2go> but this is not the problem or?
[13:17] <patdk-wk_> I dunno
[13:17] <patdk-wk_> check your weblogs
[13:17] <patdk-wk_> determin if that is something you allow, or something you think is bad
[13:17] <patdk-wk_> it could be as simple as someone having a webpage open from your server, that has autorefresh on it
[13:17] <patdk-wk_> so it's just reloading a crapload

[13:45] <alex88> hi guys, after ubuntu 12.04 I cannot copy paste something when using byobu since every n seconds I lost selection, is there a fix for this?
[13:48] <Pici> alex88: probably a better question for #ubuntu, as -server does not have a gui.
[13:49] <alex88> Pici: byobu is a gnu-screen wrapper that display a status bar and the window list
[13:49] <alex88> you think is a client-side terminal program?
[13:49] <Pici> alex88: are you using screen's selection method to copy and paste? or are you using a mouse?
[13:50] <alex88> Pici: mouse, and client is not ubuntu
[13:50] <alex88> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~zekus-one/byobu/trunk/revision/1992 seems there is already a fix undergoing
[13:50] <Pici> Ah
[13:50] <alex88> sorry just found it now :)
[13:50] <Pici> I've not had that issue myself on any OS, thought it was a terminal/putty/whatever issue.

[14:15] <tobin> I'm having an issue with my upstart script logic. I have a script that needs to be run at boot and at shutdown. The script takes args (start and stop) so I believe i need to have each command run in the pre-start/post-post. The upstart script works on boot but when i issue i shutdown its never run. Any ideas? http://pastebin.com/YsHLGafp
[14:15] <tobin> I've also tried stop on stopping network-services*
[14:16] <axisys> apt-cache showpkg foo gives the info.. but not so clean
[14:20] <jamespage> zul, ceilometerclient setup in the lab
[14:20] <zul> jamespage:  cool thanks
[14:23] <jodh> tobin: if you look at /etc/init/networking.conf, the event will not be emitted in certain circumstances by the looks of it. Try looking at your /var/log/upstart/networking.log.
[14:23] <tobin> jodh: hrm okay
[14:25] <tobin> jodh oh this is because of the virtual networking devices
[14:26] <Fieldy> is there a way to tell apt to use somewhere other than /tmp/ as its temporary directory?
[14:36] <zul> jamespage:  https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/keystone/rc2/+merge/155977
[14:37] <Fieldy> how do I configure which services are started at boot?
[14:47] <alex88> Fieldy: update-rc.d and check the init scripts afaik
[14:47] <alex88> s/init/upstart/
[14:47] <Fieldy> ok thanks i'll poke around
[14:48] <alex88> Fieldy: what are you trying to achieve?
[14:48] <Fieldy> alex88: i don't want several services i just installed to start up at boot yet, until i'm done configuring everything
[14:48] <alex88> Fieldy: then update-rc.d -f servicename remove
[14:49] <Fieldy> ah okay that's simple enough
[14:49] <alex88> if they're init scripts, for upstart you should find the init script in /etc/init and comment the line "start on " etc
[14:49] <alex88> yeah simple enough
[14:50] <Fieldy> i'll reboot and give it a shot
[14:50] <jamespage> zul, looking
[14:50] <jamespage> zul, also opening havana on precise in the lab
[14:50] <genii-around> Keep in mind this update-rc.d method will only work for daemons which are in the /et/init.d ( old sysvinit scripts) and not upstart scripts which are in /etc/init
[14:50] <zul> jamespage:  ack
[14:53] <jamespage> zul, I've taken two decision for the lab today; 1) we won't be using the ubuntu series specific branches any longer and 2) the PPA is just called havana
[14:53] <zul> jamespage:  thats fine with me
[15:01] <Fieldy> genii-around: ok, thanks. yep, one service (bind / bind9 / named) still starts up. yet i can't find anything in /etc/init/ named as i would expect. any ideas how I stop bind9 from starting at boot?

[15:45] <Fieldy> would putting my custom iptables rules and various forwarding commands in /etc/network/if-up.d/zzz-firewalling-and-forwarding be a good way to have them applied on boot?
[15:46] <patdk-wk_> no, that would run per ifup of each interface
[15:46] <Fieldy> hm... so it would do it once for eth0 and then once for lo?
[15:46] <Fieldy> (in my case)
[15:46] <patdk-wk_> should, yes
[15:47] <Fieldy> patdk-wk_: okay, my goal is to get this one series of commands run at boot but after networking is up, is there a better way to accomplish this?
[15:48] <patdk-wk_> simple upstart script probably
[15:48] <LargePrime> BUM?
[15:48] <patdk-wk_> but there is an iptables startup package, to emulate the rhel way
[15:49] <LargePrime> patdk-wk_: would BUM automate this?
[15:49] <patdk-wk_> how should I know

[16:34] <Fieldy> i created the following upstart script and placed it in /etc/init/iptables-and-forwarding : https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5264686   however start iptables-and-forwarding returns: start: Unknown job: iptables-and-forwarding  I was following this example: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html   .. any ideas?
[16:40] <Fieldy> figured it out. there's an error on that ubuntu.com page, it says "Jobs are defined in files placed in /etc/init, the name of the job is the filename under this directory without the .conf extension. They are plain text files and should not be executable." i renamed it with .conf at the end of the filename and it works.
[16:41] <Fieldy> or at least, it could be written a little better. it's easy to read it as telling you to not have the file named .conf
[17:27] <qhartman> I recently upgraded a cluster of machines from 11.04 to 12.04, and some of them are showing a weird "phantom load".
[17:28] <qhartman> The LA is quite high, but there's no significant CPU or IO activity, and there's plenty of free RAM.
[17:28] <qhartman> Has anyone else seen this?
[17:28] <hallyn> sigh.  this crosscompile stuff becomes tedious.

[18:32] <koyetsu> is it usual for samba to be so fricken flakey? i have 2 servers virtually itentical smb.conf only difference is the netbios name and the path of the shares...1 works the other doesn't....
[18:41] <sarnold> koyetsu: I've had good luck with samba<->samba things, but windows clients seem very flaky. (even windows<->windows seems trouble.)
[18:45] <koyetsu> well i seem to have worked it out....but samba irritates me
[18:48] <koyetsu> ok now on to more important issues. i'm working on setting up an automated ubuntu. i've created my ks.cfg and to answer the partitioning questions i created a preseed file. but i still get the very last question basically: here is the partition table do you want to write it yes/no any idea how to an answer passed to it?
[18:49] <koyetsu> this is my current preseed http://paste.ubuntu.com/5654282/
[18:50] <eutheria> i am using ldap auth, and i've set up some systems with the encrypted home dir
[18:51] <eutheria> i was wondering if i changed the ldap password if i would still be able to mount the users homedir
[19:01] <koyetsu> ok if no one can help me on that, then one other issue is happening in my install. i'm pxe booting and pointing the install at http://local.server/ubuntu the ubuntu folder is the mounted iso for 12.04 server. during the install it pops up and says that /dists/precise/restricted/binary-amd64/Packages was corrupt. but if i continue i never seem to have any problem.
[19:05] <sarnold> koyetsu: I think there's only a handful of packages in the restricted tree; mostly nvidia, fglrx, a few others
[19:05] <sarnold> koyetsu: if you can't figure out why it is corrupted or don't care to bother you could remove the restricted from your sources.list and delete the file..
[19:06] <koyetsu> sarnold: i'm just trying to make this a no key press install. and like i said this is the mounted iso. shouldn't be a corruption. i've redownloaded etc. and it still says it
[19:07] <sarnold> koyetsu: oh hrm.
[19:07] <koyetsu> thinking about just mirroring the distro off ubuntu but not sure what to get or the easiest way to do it. i definately dont want a complete mirror just 12.04 server 64 bit
[19:25] <koyetsu> anyone know anything about apt-mirror? i'm trying to severly limit what it downloads....i have to cut from 92gb to 56gb trying to make it mirrow a specific distro for local installs
[19:34] <eutheria> oh encrypted homedirs didn't work for ldap users
[19:34] <eutheria> meh
[19:53] <mp__> i have a machine with two ip addresses. i restarted the networking service, and the interface, it still remains. any ideas?

[21:47] <tsaavik> Has anyone been successful in setting up mode5 bonding via the method outlined at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBonding?
[21:47] <thebwt> Howdy folks, I'm trying to preseed a netboot installer, and having a hard time figuring out which initrd.gz is actually being used. My tftp/apache directory looks like this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ (i just mirrored that page). I can run installs just fine, but would like to take it a step further. By all accounts ubuntu-installer/amd64/initrd.gz should be what is loaded, but e
[22:30] <thebwt> okay forget my previous question, I had a second copy of the netboot folder in the wrong place, and was editing that... no wonder stuff didn't work :p
