[16:04] Hey guys, I'm starting a fresh ubuntu 13 64 bits server, I was wondering if someone knows about a decent guide about the basics of security that I should be aware of, (I'm not exactly a noob, but I want to cover my bases). [16:04] I already disabled SSH password login (for instance) [16:07] Anyone around? :D [16:07] goles: The most important part is really to understand the daemons you are running on the server, and have them properly configurd, to not allow more than neccesary. [16:09] andol: I think I should be more or less ok then... will browse through https://help.ubuntu.com/13.04/serverguide/ though [17:52] hey guys is there any specific setup you would suggest for dyndns on ubuntu server [18:24] bitbyte: what do you mean by "setup" ?? [18:25] looking to setup dyndns on my server but the noip2 never updates [18:25] or dosnt run correctly [18:25] a friend suggested ddclient but I'm not too sure [18:25] well, i used dyndns like 6 years ago, [18:26] and setup at that time seems really easy and straightforward [18:28] i also need to setup irc client some one suggested athene but can't find any documentation really [18:32] this is the first time that i read about that irc client [18:32] lol [18:33] fair do's it dosnt look very known [18:33] when i checked the forums [18:35] but it's an IRC client ?? or something else related with IRC ? [18:35] its an irc client [18:36] any who i gotta go [18:36] oh, ok, cheers [18:36] laters man === Jikan is now known as Jikai === Jikai is now known as Jikan [19:23] anybody good with postfix? im needing some help. [19:23] !ask | resno [19:23] resno: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [19:23] i didnt expect someone to be around now really [19:24] * sw doesn't see opening times in the /topic. [19:24] resno: By the way, they have their own channel dedicated to support over at #postfix. [19:24] ya, but its quiet [19:24] just looking to solve my issue [19:24] So can you ask it or not? [19:27] heres what i got. http://pastebin.com/1e4WJBsR i am using php sending a message and then i would like the list of aliases to broadcast it out to the users [20:03] hello, someone care to test my apache server from the outside? [20:13] Hey guys, I'm configuring a web server using nginx on ubuntu server... I was wondering about which could be a good place to store my ssl certificates? (so that they are only accessible to the nginx user) [20:25] goles: someplace outside the web directory [20:26] goles: most users aren't in the www-data group so ideally someUser:www-data would work, so that normal users can't see it [20:26] or www-data:www-data (if it exists on your system) can be the ownership groups [20:26] and then somewhere else outside the web root directory that is still "secure" [20:29] any reason anyone can think that occasionally all processors would drop to 0% usage for a minute or two [20:32] can i reinstall apache and clear all the configuration files ? [20:34] shankstaBytes: $ apt-get purge apache2; apt-get install apache2 [20:34] TheLordOfTime: This is very strange though... I installed nginx and all the information that I've read says that the installation should have created dirs sites-available/sites-enabled, however in my case they where not [20:35] goles: nginx -v [20:35] pastebin the output [20:35] from the command line [20:35] or maybe just paste the one output i forget whether it's multiline [20:35] *checks* [20:35] yeah it's one line output === Jikan is now known as Jikai [20:36] TheLordOfTime: this is the line nginx version: nginx/1.4.1 [20:36] the default SSL isn't working for me whats a good way to debug? [20:36] apache error log? [20:37] im just doing a testing server and i need ssl enabled [20:38] if i purge apache2 and apache2-common will that delete /var/www === Jikai is now known as Jikan [20:39] goles: which OS? [20:39] 13.04? [20:39] 13.10? [20:39] 12.04? And are you using the nginx ppa [20:40] TheLordOfTime: Ubuntu 13.04 x64 [20:40] I added the nginx repository, updated and installed using apt-get install nginx [20:40] shankstaBytes: No. [20:41] goles: which nginx repository? ppa:nginx/stable ? [20:41] TheLordOfTime: let me check that [20:41] goles: and did you originally install the version in the Ubuntu repositories before installing the version in the nginx ppas [20:43] goles: if in doubt it's probably the stable ppa [20:43] !info nginx raring [20:43] TheLordOfTime: I think I didn't install any other version that the one added from the repos that are specified here: http://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html#stable [20:43] nginx (source: nginx): small, powerful, scalable web/proxy server. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.6-1ubuntu3.2 (raring), package size 6 kB, installed size 89 kB [20:43] oopsies... [20:43] xD [20:43] goles: ehhhhhhhh [20:43] *looks* [20:43] :D [20:44] goles: ehhhhhhhh [20:44] goles: i can't vouch for those packages, the nginx team maintains its own PPA for nginx... [20:44] goles: i'm going to assume that based on the package you installed and the fact it does not include those folders it's a "bad package" [20:44] i never use the nginx-provided repos for nginx i use the PPAs. [20:45] ... that, and i maintain the PPAs so... [20:45] goles: sudo apt-get remove --purge nginx nginx-common [20:45] goles: then remove the repository you added [20:45] TheLordOfTime: what do you suggest ? (this is what I actually see in /etc/nginx https://gist.github.com/Goles/ede540f0b66f686d317d ) [20:45] then do sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable [20:45] TheLordOfTime: ok, will do [20:45] then do sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nginx-full [20:46] goles: the PPA the nginx team (and coincidentally myself) maintain will add the sites-available and sites-enabled folders [20:46] per Debian [20:46] ... oh damn i forgot about the migration to new libraries... [20:46] * TheLordOfTime grumblesa [20:46] stupid stupid stupid me. [20:46] * TheLordOfTime preps an update for saucy [20:47] TheLordOfTime: hahaha, this is the cool thing about irc :) [20:47] goles: ehh i've been meaning to update for a recent libraries migration upstream in debian, and i forgot to apply it xD [20:49] TheLordOfTime: lol, I see... will follow your advice... seems like add-apt-repository is not installed by default in ubuntu server... [21:07] goles: sudo apt-get install python-software-properties [21:10] TheLordOfTime: got it to work [21:11] TheLordOfTime: thanks! :) [21:11] goles: i assume the sites-available and sites-enabled folders exist now :p [21:11] TheLordOfTime: they do! ahahaha, btw... is it a normal thing to use sudo to startup nginx? [21:12] goles: sudo service nginx stop; sudo service nginx start [21:12] that launches the master daemon process but it doesn't access anything. the workers are www-data by default [21:13] TheLordOfTime: great, I see... I thougth that the workers would use the 'nginx' user [21:13] goles: nope, it uses www-data by default [21:14] goles: when in doubt, use the PPA. [21:14] i try and keep that recent [21:14] but i have to update the debian packaging on it to adapt to the latest debian upstream changes. [21:14] TheLordOfTime: I see :) , thanks man [21:16] goles: yeppers! === _thumper_ is now known as thumper === alamar is now known as julian [22:49] anyone know a good resource for setting up procmail with postfix? ive been at it with google for hours and no luck [22:50] mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail [22:50] log: status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail) [22:50] but i get no email === julian is now known as alamar
