[00:36] <axisys> Patrickdk: I need to migrate RT from old machine to new machine before doing upgrade. It is mysql 5.0.75 on the old machine
[00:37] <axisys> how do I install mysql-server from lucid to precise ?
[00:37] <axisys> it has 5.1 .. still looking for 5.0.x
[00:37] <axisys> need to be as close to old version as possible to migrate
[00:38] <axisys> then I will upgrade
[00:51] <Patrickdk> axisys, your best bet is to install 5.0 onto lucid using http://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.0/LATEST/deb/
[00:51] <Patrickdk> personally, I never had an issue migrating between version
[00:51] <Patrickdk> but if you want to, well
[01:42] <lwizardl> hello
[02:18] <hxr> how to i remove about 8 extra out of date kernels from the boot folder
[02:18] <hxr> is there a way other then manual
[02:29] <Patrickdk> apt-get autoremove
[02:34] <axisys> Patrickdk: sorry what I meant is how to install a package from previous release?
[02:34] <Patrickdk> you don't
[02:34] <Patrickdk> in order to do that, you have to install everything it depends on
[02:34] <Patrickdk> and then it will destroy your current release
[02:34] <axisys> Patrickdk: I have no mysql on precise right now
[02:35] <Patrickdk> yes, but you have everything it depends on
[02:35] <Patrickdk> or you wouldn't have a working system
[02:35] <Patrickdk> now if you want to recompile it
[02:36] <Patrickdk> go for it, that is much out of scope here though
[02:36] <Patrickdk> any many many websites that explain how to do so
[02:36] <axisys> Patrickdk: I guess I should install the binary then.. thanks a lot for your help
[02:36] <axisys> looks like 5.0.96 available for linux as binary
[02:37] <Patrickdk> ya, a static binary would be ok
[02:37] <Patrickdk> ubuntu doesn't ship static though
[02:55] <axisys> yep keep things lighter as well that way
[03:03] <hxr> how to i remove about 8 extra out of date kernels from the boot folder, other then manually
[03:04] <Patrickdk> hxr, pay attention
[03:04] <hxr> ? autoremove has not removed them
[03:05] <hxr> though it looked like you said that to some one else
[03:05] <Patrickdk> then something broken them on your system
[03:05] <Patrickdk> apt-get autoremove removes them on my systems
[03:05] <hxr> i have three that are being held back on 12.04 lts
[03:07] <Patrickdk> heh?
[03:07] <Patrickdk> autoremove doesn't *hold them back*
[03:07] <Patrickdk> so what is it your attempting to do?
[03:08] <hxr> I run apt-get autoremove and get
[03:08] <hxr> :~# apt-get autoremove
[03:08] <hxr> Reading package lists... Done
[03:08] <hxr> Building dependency tree
[03:08] <hxr> Reading state information... Done
[03:08] <hxr> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.
[03:08] <hxr> 4 not upgraded are kernel
[03:12] <hxr> Patrickdk⚡ ^
[03:20] <Patrickdk> ya, that has nothing to do with removing
[03:20] <Patrickdk> that has to do with adding
[03:20] <Patrickdk> you said you wanted to remove old ones
[03:20] <Patrickdk> not add new ones
[03:37] <hxr> Patrickdk⚡ yes, i want to remove old ones, so how do I
[05:08] <tcb^ll3r> what are the correct permissions for a users home folder?
[05:12] <virusuy> tcb^ll3r: drwxr-xr-x
[05:12] <virusuy> 751
[05:12] <virusuy> bleh, i guess
[05:12] <axisys> whats the difference between mysql-5.0.77-linux-x86_64-icc-glibc23.tar.gz and mysql-5.0.77-linux-x86_64-glibc23.tar.gz ? I need to install one on ubuntu precise
[05:13] <tcb^ll3r> virusuy thanks
[05:13] <virusuy> tcb^ll3r: you're welcome
[05:26] <tcb^ll3r> what does it means when a directory is highlighted in the ls listing?
[05:37] <tcb^ll3r> does anyone know the correct ownership for a ssh chroot dir?
[05:49] <tcb^ll3r> wtf? why ssh chroot perms must be 755?
[06:10] <tcb^ll3r> ha! that was almost as funny as when I caught me hacking my own serv last week.....
[10:27] <Administrato> !list
[14:17] <alexes> I'm using logwatch, and every week I get hundreds of "MAIL (mailed 1 byte of output; but got status 0x0001, #012)".
[16:21] <Penyulap> i have ubuntu server on a computer in the house, and can use it's apache to copy files from it to my desktop computer, is there an easy way to send files the other way to the server, using ssh on the command line ?
[16:51] <pmatulis_> scp
[18:52] <Catbuntu> ugh
[21:03] <Pablo01> hi do you know something about project artiglieria something to protect a server to prevent ddos ? tnx in advice
[21:07] <bekks> Pablo01: BEsides some settings that might lower the chance of attacking a specific service, there is (technically) nothing that could actually prevent an attack like that.
[21:48] <Pablo01> something to protect any hints ? wiki or something like it ?
[21:49] <Pablo01> i saw in a forum smething like artiglieria project but i cannot get any info about it googling
[21:49] <Pablo01> do u know something about ?
[21:50] <Pablo01> it s open-souce written in python i saw
[22:09] <LargePrime> I af a perms problem

[22:09] <LargePrime> can someone chat about perms with me for a bit
[22:12] <LargePrime> I have a game panel that has an application user and it creates several users to run each of its game servers
[22:12] <LargePrime> I need to grant a person access to some or all of these game sever files
[22:12] <LargePrime> for matience and fixing stuff
[22:14] <LargePrime> the problem is how do i grant a user access to editing thoes files, and still have the app run the files as normal
[22:19] <guzzlefry> 0.o
[22:19] <guzzlefry> Didn't wait too long.
[22:55] <EpicCyndaquil>  I've followed a few guides on setting up dovecot and postfix, but I can't seem to get it right. Does anyone with experience with mailservers have any suggestions?
[23:04] <sarnold> EpicCyndaquil: a few random thoughts: (a) sending is different than receiving is different than retrieving; test one thing at a time and get each working -- and retest all three functions before you're considering the day done :) (b) log files are your friends -- they often report exactly what the problem is, if only you can decode them :)
[23:05] <EpicCyndaquil> sarnold: the problem is I
[23:05] <EpicCyndaquil> *I'm at a point where it should be working with no error log output
[23:05] <EpicCyndaquil> but it's still not, so it's hard to tell what the issue is
[23:06] <EpicCyndaquil> from people I've talked to, it seems like setting these up is always complete hell
[23:07] <sarnold> there's a fair amount of moving pieces, and it's worse these days since you need a pile of anti-spam things on receiving and need to work with any number of arbitrary anit-spam things on receivers without obviously easy ways to test...
[23:08] <EpicCyndaquil> I really wanted to try to set up server-side conditionals to move mail from specific senders into certain folders, but damn, I can't even get a regular mailserver up and running
[23:20] <guzzlefry> What's a sensible drive size for an Ubuntu Server install using Gnome, Java runtimes for my IDE, and running a LAMP stack and possible a few other random things? Non-production server. Trying to keep this as small as possible without hitting disk space issues.
[23:25] <blkperl> guzzlefry: ~30G
[23:26] <blkperl> more if you plan to install lots of apps
[23:26] <blkperl> LAMP is pretty small, java/gnome are going to be the hogs
[23:30] <guzzlefry> ok thanks, time to delete some stuff then. :P
