[00:57] <tohuw> 12.04.2. I have an apt-get upgrade that failed due to insufficient space in /boot. I am attempting to purge a deprecated header package, but cannot due to the failure of the previous package. How can I reset the state of apt-get to allow me to purge the packages and stop attempting to install the failed one?
[01:00] <mardraum> I wish I knew the correct answer, I temporarily move things out of the way to make enough room so apt-get canb complete. I'm not saying this is correct, only that it has worked for me.
[01:01] <mardraum> old headers would be pretty safe.
[01:13] <tohuw> mardraum: yeah, that's what I'm doing now. Thank you... there really should be an obvious, documented way to deal with this situation
[02:14] <Brian21> I could use help with drbd on 12.04 ubuntu please
[02:51] <Brian21> [r0] cmd /sbin/drbdsetup 1 disk /dev/sda /dev/sda internal --set-defaults --create-device  failed - continuing!

[04:53] <pHcF> i've configured logwatch to send emails to me. I've just changed the email to my new email address, and after trying to send a logwatch report, i'm not receiving anything im my new email… I checked everything: spam, smtp servers, etc. If i change the email to send the report to my old email, it works. any ideas?
[07:21] <frojnd> Hi there. Today I was trying to update system while I encounter errors during the update: http://sprunge.us/TgVM
[07:22] <frojnd> Now there it says: no space left on device, so I checked with df -h http://sprunge.us/WeGb
[07:22] <frojnd> The only partition that is 100% full is /boot
[07:22] <frojnd> any ideas how can I free up some space on this partition which is already very small ~100MB?
[07:26] <frojnd> ok.. so kernel try to install into /boot ... Ah zeh, that's why when I install servers from scratch I do it a little bit more bigger. So can you advice me of any information how can I repartition /boot and take space from / ?
[07:34] <frojnd> help a little? :)
[08:35] <frojnd> This chan is moderate
[08:51] <frojnd> I then tried to purge some old headers but I can't it keeps throwing at me: You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these linux-generic : Depends: linux-headers-generic (= 3.2.0.49.59) but 3.2.0.51.61 is to be installe ...
[08:52] <frojnd> So I can't use apt-get to free up some space, can someone advice me how can I make /boot partition bigger?
[08:52] <jongbergs> !topic
[08:53] <frojnd> jongbergs: your point being? :)
[09:32] <jongbergs> Hi, I've just read the ubuntu server guide on setting and configuring dns server, in the guide it uses private ip address for the nameserver. Does this work or should I use public ip address instead of private ip?
[11:49] <maxagaz> hi
[11:49] <maxagaz> I'm trying to install ubuntu server from usb
[11:50] <DenBeiren> could someone explain what the MAAS server install is for?
[11:50] <maxagaz> but I get an error message: [!!] Load installer components from CD, Failed to copy file from CR-ROM. Retry?
[11:50] <DenBeiren> maxagaz, i would reflash the usb drive
[11:51] <maxagaz> DenBeiren: I did it twice already
[11:51] <maxagaz> DenBeiren: with ubuntu 12.04 server and 13.04 now
[11:51] <maxagaz> DenBeiren: using Unetbootin
[11:58] <DenBeiren> maxagaz, try different stick, or burn cd
[11:58] <maxagaz> DenBeiren: I don't have cd drive
[12:50] <frojnd> Hi there.
[12:51] <frojnd> Today I tried and setup OpenVPN on one server because I'm gonna visit some "unsafe" countries in the near future... the problem is on client *I think* I tried to connect and I keep getting those two errors: TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity) and TLS Error: TLS handshake failed
[12:52] <frojnd> Little ducking suggested that in 99% the root cause is lousy firewalls, so I've tried and switched to proto tcp on server, I still get this errors.
[12:53] <frojnd> I use software firewall on the server: ufw, and I've enabled 1194/tcp and 1194/udp
[12:54] <frojnd> I've also double clecked that port is the same on client '1194'
[12:58] <frojnd> I do however see something like this when I'm running openvpn /etc/openvpn/server.conf http://sprunge.us/LdWB
[12:58] <frojnd> Again little duck ducking suggested that I should look for a port that is already in use but I can't find it from this message.
[13:00] <frojnd> ah.. that's because previously  was already running openvpn, I started it within initd
[13:00] <frojnd> so no errors on server side
[13:01] <frojnd> bah annoying proble, how can I solve it for clients?
[13:18] <johnrochie> HI guys, how is everyone?
[13:20] <johnrochie> I've set myself up a home version of Ubuntu server and I was wondering if it would be possible to store a copy of an operating system on it and then network boot to install the system?
[13:24] <ikonia> johnrochie: look up pxebooting
[13:55] <frojnd> Any ideas on my OpenVPN problem? :)
[13:55] <frojnd> The documentation I was diggin up was: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/openvpn.html
[15:01] <qman__> frojnd, make sure you stop with init.d and then kill off all openvpn processes, then start with init.d
[15:01] <qman__> also make sure your client conf uses the same options as the server conf
[15:02] <qman__> and also, if you're on the same network with the server and client, it's not going to work
[15:02] <qman__> if you have more than one network on your local internet connection, you still need to enable loopback routing if you want that to work
[15:03] <qman__> another thing to consider, make sure the network you want to VPN into uses an unusual IP scheme, as you can't have the same IP scheme at both ends of the tunnel
[15:04] <qman__> e.g. if you have 192.168.1.x at home, and 192.168.1.x while traveling, you won't be able to connect
[18:19] <Alex_JB> Hi everyone!
[18:54] <stetho> Hi all. I'm trying to get to grips with PXE booting, apt mirror and kickstart - I've got the PXE booting working and if I set an existing machine to do its updates from my local apt-mirror that works as well. However, if I create a ks.cfg file with the line url --url http://192.168.1.7/ubuntu it fails. The installer says it can't find the mirror, the log says http://192.168.1.7/ubuntu//dists - 404; I think that doub
[18:54] <stetho> slash is my problem but I can't figure out where it's coming from.
[20:49] <frojnd> qman__: here?
[20:49] <frojnd> qman__: server has only external IP address assigned to ethernet card, so no problwms with 192.168.1.*
[20:50] <frojnd> I've started and stopped OpenVPN with /etc/init.d/openvpn start/stop
[20:50] <frojnd> qman__: is there any generator for configs I do have config for server and I did create one or client but I'm just wondering if there is some kind of generator
