| jamespage | jodh, is there a nice way to not run a specific command under upstart user sessions? | 09:28 |
| jamespage | jodh, I've fixed a bug in openvswitch trunk in saucy for this (it assuming init == pid 1) | 09:29 |
| jamespage | but I really don't want to have to backport it to 12.04 for SRU's | 09:29 |
| MacroMan | I've set up MX records in my bind9 configuration for google apps, but the google test tool is telling me that no mail exchanger has been found. The records are there if I do nslookup on my domain. | 09:29 |
| jodh | jamespage: can you give more details? not clear on what you're trying to do. | 09:29 |
| jamespage | MacroMan, might just be a propagation delay | 09:29 |
| MacroMan | I'm not sure what could be wrong. They've been set since Saturday. | 09:30 |
| jamespage | jodh, OK - openvswitch has its own monitor stuff which ensures its daemons keep running | 09:30 |
| MacroMan | Here's a pastie of my nslookup: http://pastie.org/8120520 | 09:30 |
| jamespage | jodh, the test that verify that this all works ensures that the parent processes are set correctly when ovs is started up using this method | 09:31 |
| jamespage | jodh, in trunk they used to check that the top level process was owned by init by detecting that the parent pid of the monitor daemon == 1 | 09:31 |
| jamespage | jodh, I fixed that test with a workaround just to ensure that the daemon parent process was not that of the shell that spawned it | 09:31 |
| jamespage | jodh, but I really don't want to backport that fix for an SRU | 09:32 |
| mardraum | MacroMan: no A record for them | 09:34 |
| mardraum | MacroMan: http://www.intodns.com/aplexpress.co.uk | 09:35 |
| MacroMan | mardraum, That tool says I have multiple A records for MX. | 09:36 |
| mardraum | it says a what? | 09:37 |
| MacroMan | "It seems that all your MX records have the same IP(s): | 09:37 |
| MacroMan | There is no use on having multiple MX records pointing to the same ip." | 09:37 |
| MacroMan | Under "Duplicate MA A records" | 09:37 |
| mardraum | MacroMan, can you resolve aspmx.l.google.com.aplexpress.co.uk ? | 09:37 |
| MacroMan | mardraum, That's odd. That's not what I've got set in my bind config | 09:38 |
| mardraum | so fix it | 09:38 |
| mardraum | add an A record for all the MX records you have | 09:38 |
| MacroMan | Thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't noticed. | 09:38 |
| jodh | jamespage: going back to the original question, the simplest test to detect if you're running under a Session Init is whether UPSTART_SESSION is set. | 09:39 |
| MacroMan | mardraum, Should I point the A record for "aspmx.l.google.com.aplexpress.co.uk" to the IP address of "ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM" which is what I have in my zone config? | 09:42 |
| mardraum | to the IP of whatever machine should be receiving mail | 09:42 |
| MacroMan | OK thanks. Yes it'll be the IP of the aspmx address. | 09:43 |
| mardraum | google probably have best practice docs about what to do, I don't speak for them | 09:43 |
| MacroMan | Just a sec. Should I have a period at the end of the MX record addresses? Is that why it's appending my domain after the MX record address? | 09:48 |
| MacroMan | Here is my config: http://pastie.org/8120563 | 09:50 |
| mardraum | yes. | 09:54 |
| mardraum | I don't mean to be rude, but why not go read some docs about bind? | 09:54 |
| MacroMan | mardraum, Sorry. I landed myself in some hot water and my company wasn't receiving any email and I needed to get it fixed quickly. Thank you very much for helping me. I've added periods at the end and now email is working. Thank you very, very much. | 09:56 |
| mardraum | you probably could have fixed it a lot sooner by using google search and looking carefully at some example zone config files | 09:57 |
| mardraum | panic and IRC don't go together well | 09:57 |
| MacroMan | mardraum, I know. It's working now though and a weight has been lifted. tbh, I'm a web dev that has taken on the task of setting up a new dedicated server, and I'm in a little over my head. | 10:08 |

| geaden_ | Hello, guys! Need help with setting up passwordless ssh to remote server (EC2). I copied public key to the of authorized_keys file. But when connecting it keeps asking prompt for password. The problem is this is a production server and I can't lost connection to it due to my misconfiguration((( Tried almost every tutorial. Followed this trobu | 11:15 |
| geaden_ | *troubleshooting guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 11:15 |
| geaden_ | But without success | 11:15 |
| mardraum | geaden_: ssh -i <file> <user>@<ec2-vm> | 11:25 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: thanks for reply. My key file is already in ssh-add -l… But I'll try, thanks | 11:26 |
| mardraum | that's the way aws setup for you | 11:26 |
| mardraum | anything else is you create a local keypair and copy the pub file to authorized_keys on the server | 11:27 |
| geaden_ | yes, this is default. But it was configured before me, to login by entering password. Now I need to authorise via key | 11:27 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: Yes, the problem is it seems my instance doesn't recognise my pub file in authorised keys, and prompt for password after | 11:28 |
| mardraum | "authorized" you have to spell like an american | 11:28 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: Yes, sorry | 11:28 |
| mardraum | did you check permissions? | 11:28 |
| mardraum | use ssh -v for some extra info on the client. | 11:29 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: my current permissions are -rw------- 1 root root 947 Jul 5 09:12 authorized_keys | 11:29 |
| mardraum | so you are trying to login as root? | 11:29 |
| mardraum | is that permitted in sshd_config? | 11:30 |
| geaden_ | Yes PermitRootLogin yes | 11:31 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: with ssh -v I see following: https://www.friendpaste.com/tmYy4SMuVRHlKonGxcBUs | 11:37 |
| mardraum | classy, expired cert | 11:38 |
| geaden_ | hmmm… on other servers I can connect with that public key | 11:38 |
| mardraum | your paste site I mean. | 11:39 |
| geaden_ | agh… yes… Used this long time ago… I'll repaste | 11:39 |
| geaden_ | https://dpaste.de/RLO2W/ | 11:40 |

| mardraum | I havwe no idea | 11:45 |
| geaden_ | mardraum: ok. Anyway thanks for your time | 11:46 |

| hallyn_ | jjohansen: sarnold: so if /sbin/dhclient has Urx perm to /sbin/dhclient-script, and /sbin/dhclient-script does #!/bin/bash, and we see a perm denied error message for profile=/sbin/dhclient, file=/bin/bash - did we expect after Urx of /sbin/dhclient-script that profile be called 'unconfined' ? | 18:17 |
| hallyn_ | so it sounds like apparmor simply requires that the interpreter be allowed before a script to which we have Urx which uses that interpreter is allowed | 18:17 |
| hallyn_ | I assume this is a change in apparmor kernel behavior - a reasonable one imo, | 18:17 |
| hallyn_ | but it would require updates of profiles | 18:17 |
| sarnold | hallyn_: I -expect- that the dhclient-script would execute as "unconfined", and /bin/bash would be executed without any apparmor intervention | 18:19 |
| sarnold | hallyn_: (well, aa3.0 will make that name configurable, I think -- and it would still be a profile. long story there..) | 18:20 |
| sarnold | hallyn_: but I _think_ psivaa's bug will require some dedicated time from john, everything I've seen looks like it should work fine | 18:20 |

| resno | nothing has been documented at all | 19:51 |
| resno | and the admins have changed multiple hands | 19:51 |
| resno | i know what's supposed to be on them... its the stuff that has crept in over time i fear | 19:52 |
| resno | lenios: for example, on of the vms i was handed was running 7.10 | 19:52 |
| lenios | what's important is what service is supposed to be on it | 19:53 |
| lenios | you can list packages to get an idea of what should be installed, if no one installed manually in /usr/local, /opt or somewhere else | 19:54 |
| lenios | you can also run the vm within a internal network, and watch if services are listening on network with netstat -natp | 19:59 |

| Cetrian | I'm really impressed with the installer so far - very easy to use and effective. no bloat. | 23:01 |
| Cetrian | Ah crap - looks like it won't boot with UEFI - anyone know how to work with that? | 23:08 |
| hadifarnoud | what does this mean? Warning: 91.207.138.61 giving up on port because retransmission cap hit (10). | 23:09 |
| hadifarnoud | nmap | 23:09 |
| Cetrian | never mind got it - had to flip UEFI to non-windows mode in BIOS | 23:09 |
| sarnold | Cetrian: another approach is to use 12.04.2 LTS -- it includes a newer hardware enablement stack, to get UEFI support, newer X drivers, etc.: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 23:25 |
| Cetrian | ah no worries - it seemed to work when I selected Non-Windows UEFI | 23:32 |
| sarnold | Cetrian: that's fine, you'll just use the original kernel, X, drivers. nothing wrong with that. :) | 23:34 |
| Cetrian | I don't understand the objection? Isn't 13.04 better than 12 in this respect? (Just asking :) ) | 23:38 |
| sarnold | Cetrian: 13.04 will not be supported for the same length of time as 12.04 LTS; most people in here probably prefer the longer support to the newer software | 23:41 |
| sarnold | Cetrian: but of course 13.04 is there if you're alright with a nine-month support window, or want to participate in developing what will eventually become 14.04 LTS :) | 23:42 |
| Cetrian | ah gotcha. This is mainly for a home server, so hopefully that won't matter, and I could just upgrade to 14 LTS when it comes out? | 23:42 |
| sarnold | Cetrian: yes, with the caveat that the 'supported' upgrade path would be 13.04 -> 13.10 -> 14.04. (skipping versions generally seems to work, but isn't recommended.) | 23:43 |
| Cetrian | Ah, thanks sarnold! | 23:45 |
| Cetrian | I am really thrilled with this so far - I feel like a noob again ;) I've been a Windows Server guy for so long, and it really feels good to give the finger to MS and the NSA :) | 23:46 |
| Cetrian | I have a server with a GUI serving… nothing yet… but it still feels cool! ;) | 23:46 |
| sarnold | :D | 23:47 |
| Cetrian | Full disk encryption, UEFI boot, loving it. Now I just need to decide if I want to keep using FlexRAID, or if I should go with some other software RAID. (Not looking to do hardware RAID at this stage) | 23:47 |
| akurilin2 | Folks, what's the best location to place secret keys and configuration settings on an ubuntu server for a web application running as www-data to consume? I'm thinking an envdir folder that only root would be able to access when the server starts, but where would I place it? | 23:57 |
| sarnold | akurilin2: /etc might be appropriate, it's supposed to contain configuration.. | 23:58 |
| akurilin2 | sarnold, perfect, I was thinking /etc as well, just wondering if perhaps there was a folder in it that was meant for these situations | 23:59 |
