| Fieldy | I installed phpmyadmin however there's nothing that I can find related to it anywhere in /var/www. it didn't say I needed to do anything else, did I miss something? | 05:06 |

| sarnold | Fieldy: when I'm stuck with a "what next?" sort of feeling, I look in the /usr/share/doc/<packagename>/ directory, and if that isn't as useful as it could be, I run dpkg -L <packagename> to see what files were installed | 05:27 |

| LargePrime | hey, assuming a Ubuntu server with server ips bound to to it, how do i open a port on one of the ip's? | 06:24 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: there's no default firewall; just have your server program bind() a socket, listen() to a port at startup, then accept connections in the main loop | 06:26 |
| LargePrime | The software is supposed to have opend a port. but it seems not. i scanned with nmap and it is closed | 06:27 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: check with sudo netstat -nlp | grep :portnumber | 06:27 |
| sarnold | (-n to avoid dns, -l to show listening, -p to show program names and pids) | 06:27 |
| LargePrime | sarnold: how do i specify the ip? | 06:28 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: most programs have a directive for that; 0.0.0.0 or * for "any", or a specific IP if you want it bound on only one address | 06:29 |
| LargePrime | ok i see it with the netstat command | 06:29 |
| LargePrime | sarnold: I see thie correct ip and the port with the netstart, but nmap is not showing it as open when scanned | 06:31 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: okay, that's a start, though it does complicate things a bit :) it's bed time for me, so I'm afraid I'll just hahve to throw you some pointers and hope one of them gets it.. | 06:33 |
| LargePrime | and now everything is working | 06:33 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: first, make sure ... | 06:33 |
| sarnold | haha | 06:33 |
| LargePrime | ok did i do that? | 06:33 |
| sarnold | try to show the problem to someone else, and it goes away. every time. :D | 06:33 |
| LargePrime | ok it not just me | 06:33 |
| sarnold | LargePrime: I wish I had a good explanation. :/ the netstat command won't change anything.. | 06:34 |
| LargePrime | sarnold: thanks | 06:38 |

| angs | I am installing ubuntu-server 12.04.2 from a pendrive (by using unetbootin), it outputs error for the ubuntu archive mirror, I selected tens of countries from the list, but it always output "bad archive mirror". one of the mirrors that I am using is se.archive.ubuntu.com. how can I overcome this step? | 14:26 |
| holstein | angs: i would try and install without adding packages at installation | 14:27 |
| angs | it asks that step by default when I select "install ubuntu server" option on unetboot. | 14:35 |
| BenyG | angs: have you checked networking is ok? | 14:36 |
| angs | sorry select "install" option. | 14:36 |
| angs | I selected to install it without having connection option | 14:36 |
| angs | if I select "install ubuntu server" on the unetboot, at a point it asks me to insert the installation CD where I am using pendrive. there is no option to select another storage. | 14:37 |
| angs | I will try to use usb-creator to prepare the usb stick then try it | 14:38 |
| angs | *try to install it | 14:38 |

| sliddjur | What is xinetd and why would I need it? | 17:30 |
| sliddjur | im setting up nagios3 server and a nrpe host on another network. some guides suggests me to use xinetd | 17:30 |
| RoyK | sliddjur: xinetd (or inetd) is a helper to make processes not having a tcp (or udp) listener built in work over those protocols. nrpe should be able to listen to tcp without (x)inetd | 17:35 |
| sliddjur | RoyK: hmm ok. | 17:43 |
| sliddjur | my teacher also suggested me to use two hosts on the same network | 17:44 |
| sliddjur | he never told me why | 17:44 |

| Fieldy | any suggestions for an imap server other than courier? i've spent two hours mucking with it and it just won't start. and i'm not new at courier, i have many years of experience, and even I can't figure it out. time to move on. | 20:29 |
| genii-around | Fieldy: Dovecot | 20:30 |
| Fieldy | thanks | 20:30 |
| maxb | Either dovecot or cyrus | 20:32 |
| guntbert | Fieldy: the !serverguide contains a good part about mail services | 20:32 |
| maxb | dovecot's probably easier to get going with | 20:32 |
| guntbert | !serverguide | Fieldy | 20:33 |
| ubottu | Fieldy: The Ubuntu server guide may be found at http://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ | 20:33 |
| maxb | cyrus is possibly better some more advanced use cases | 20:33 |
| Fieldy | thanks for the info | 20:33 |
| Fieldy | yeah my needs are simple | 20:33 |
| Fieldy | just tired of fighting courier's goofy config | 20:33 |
| Fieldy | so i'll play with dovecot | 20:33 |
| Seveas | Fieldy: cyrus is good too | 20:41 |
