=== aarcane_ is now known as aarcane [01:52] hi there... i'm struggling to remember anything I learned when i did my ccna.. years lapsed and haven't done anything in this arena for a while.. hoping someone can give me some quick advice... i have 3 ubuntu servers: (1 x linode vps, 1 x vps with another provider, and 1 x dev server at my home) i'm trying to point a subdomain: dev.domain.com to my dev server at home. static public ip to router and set up port forwarding on m [01:52] np805n-11n so that ports 80 and 8069 point to the private ip of the dev server... still no worky.. anything i'm forgetting? [01:53] the main domain points to my linode.. maybe i use the same dns on my dev server as my linode? [01:56] ps.. i don't use irc much so i'm unaware of a good networking channel.. if someone has a suggestion for a more appropriate channel to ask i'm all ears.. [03:25] Question: I had a drive fail in my software Raid 5 array. The new drive starts on sector 64 and the rest of the drives are on 63, will this give me a performance hit? [03:25] Basically I am trying to figure out this whole partition alignment and jazz and cant seem to ha [03:35] if my machines are running and are live providing services, how can i test my machines for security testing ? [03:50] like pentesting? [03:53] jrwren, yeah === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying [09:26] hi all. wonder if you can please help ,e. [09:26] i deletede nut but i re-install but the enteries in /sbin dont resinstall [09:27] how can i get the upsd file back' [10:23] Douug: What exactly did you do? [10:26] hi, my system clock is stuck -61seconds [10:27] can anyone help with this? i've tried installing NTP etc [10:28] ntp will eventually fix it [10:29] it just won't correct 61 seconds in one hit [10:29] if you want to force it, stop the ntp service and use ntpdate to a ntp server. [10:29] then start the ntp service again [10:31] yes i did that [10:31] but it doesnt work [10:31] i've left it overnight also, still the same [10:31] using 'ntpq -p' to check [10:31] its not 63seconds [10:31] now* [10:32] +ntp4.Housing.Be 128.32.206.55 3 u 42 64 377 74.976 offset > -63531. / jitter > 7.654 [10:32] you did what that didn't work? [10:32] forced update with ntpdate, or so i thought [10:33] try it again now and paste the output. use pastebin for more than one line [10:33] what server would you suggest? [10:33] and how can i check which one its currently using? ntp conf doesnt change from what i can see [10:34] just use the server you listed above [10:35] by default ubuntu uses the ntp projects servers, so it will change on each startup even perhaps [10:35] so what command do you suggest i use ? [10:35] stop the ntp service, then ntpdate [10:38] no change [10:38] just tried this that i found online > /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian [10:39] but it returns this, maybe its related i dont know > ntpdate[8008]: step-systime: Operation not permitted [10:39] sudo. [10:43] nope [10:43] lol [10:44] this might be the underlying issue then ? [10:44] what user is NTP supposed to be run as ? [10:45] its being run as root it seems [10:46] just tried uninstalling NTP, and got this from aptitude pB [10:46] broken package? [10:58] think it might be this :) http://www.gvarisco.com/2011/05/01/openvz-tips-and-tricks-ntpdate-1/ [15:00] Hi!. Trying to install ubuntu server on an IBM eServer 346 (8840) but when i boot the installation disk, the only option that is appearing on the screen is "Rescue Mode". [15:00] What do i do? [15:02] My server is just setup with RAID. No old ubuntu installation to fix... [15:08] hey guys. I want to quickly see if http requests are coming through to my server. I know there is a tool that allows you to listen on a port and output requests coming in, but I forgot which process. [15:09] Does anyone know it? [15:13] tail -f apache2.log ? :) [15:13] bekks: no apache [15:13] tcpdump [15:14] tail -f whateverserver.log :) [15:14] beeks read first, he said listen on a port [15:14] so if you want to answer that way, first explain how to isntall and setup a webserver [15:15] would have thought with the invention of the internet, peoples reading skills might actually go up [15:16] * Patrickdk blames the invention of sms [15:16] while true ; do nc -l 3000 << this serves a string on port 80 [15:17] port 3000 [15:17] I mean [15:19] obviously `nc -l 80` would work too, but then you don't get feedback in the browser. [15:19] Which is fine for most of this level of debuggin. [15:19] debugging* === bekks is now known as ibekks === ibekks is now known as bekks === acrocity- is now known as acrocity === cppCzar_ is now known as cppCzar [19:29] hi guys, I just beginning to setup an email server and I have some questions === HisaoNakai_ is now known as HisaoNakai [20:32] I have installed postfix and am testing. Telnet localhost 25 works fine and I am able to send email, but telnet myaddress.org 25 just hangs. Any ideas? [20:37] many ISPs block incoming port 25. Comcast does. Who is your iSP? [20:37] ah [20:38] Well I am running this website on a virtual machine on windows azure [20:38] Distortion: service is listening on external interface? [20:39] Distortion: azure blocks incoming port 25 as well. [20:39] ah shit [20:39] what is the way around this? [20:40] i'm wrong about azure and port25 anyway. [20:41] oh so it isn't blocked? [20:42] nope. [20:42] hmm [20:42] i'll spin up and instance and try. [20:43] okay sweet [20:43] you guys are really helpful [20:43] there are quite a few trolls in #postfix [20:43] you are using 3 of my favorite technolgies which I want to succeed and be used, ubuntu, azure, postfix :) [20:46] Distortion: which ubuntu version are you using? [20:48] jrwren: 12,04 [20:48] jrwren: OT, but I'm curious - what's good about azure? I haven't really heard much either way on it [20:48] haha I get azure free since I registered a startup [20:48] so it is amazing [20:48] "registered a startup"? o_O [20:49] startup as in "omg I have a bajillion dollar idea, let's do this!"? [20:50] haha [20:50] shodan45: i'm just glad there is good competition for aws and xen technologies. [20:50] as in you send them your information (website people involved etc) and they review it and give you like 3 years of azure free [20:50] Distortion: BizSpark? [20:50] $150 a month to spend [20:50] yes bizspark! [20:51] yes, i've heard of businesses using that, then after 3 years they find out that licenses for the SQL Server and Windows Server which they used costs $50-$100k, which is a huge percent of their margins. [20:52] yeah, $150 tends to not go very far with MS software... no idea what they charge normally for azure [20:53] jrwren: I can imaging -- however I am not using any windows software, just their VM. [20:53] jrwren: aws & xen? I've never understood why people pay so much for aws, as for xen - I use kvm :D [20:54] jrwren: still, always good to know about free stuff :) [20:54] I am only putting up an idea so that when I apply for jobs next year I have something to show [20:55] shodan45: we use openstack and kvm too, and I am looking foward to openstack and lxc. Still, I appreciate teh hyperV competition [20:57] jrwren: do you have any idea why I cant access port 25? [20:57] anyone here install a mythtv backend on an existing (headless) server install? #ubuntu-mythtv is pretty dead on the weekends :( [20:57] Distortion: only thing I can think of is firewall rule. azure calls them endpoints [20:58] not ufw, but something through their system? [20:58] yes [20:58] like ec2 security groups [20:58] ah i see [20:58] thank you [21:02] did it work? [21:04] I'm not sure [21:04] I don't have access to the account that hosts the VM [21:04] I just have sudo access to the server, not access to my friend's azure account [21:05] I will try it later when he is available [21:06] hello all [21:07] Is there any person that has installed a jasig CAS server ? [21:12] I have installed jasig CAS server into a tomcat environment with a SSL [21:13] i have some quesitons... i don't see any document, guide or tutorial that explains next steps... for example to create a schema to allocate all login information in mysql .... [21:13] could you help me? [21:15] jrwren: okay opened up the ports through azure…that was the fix [21:15] thanks [21:15] yw [21:15] No off to learn the basics of email servers [21:15] now* [21:17] Distortion: basics of email servers=let someone else do it [21:17] haha [21:17] (no, I'm not kidding... email is a huge PITA) [21:18] I only need really simple things so it isn't that bad [21:18] 1 domain [21:18] 3 email addresses [21:18] incoming or just outgoing? [21:18] both and I;m setting up imap so I can use gmail with it [21:19] but it seems okay so far [21:19] Distortion: good luck. I learned long ago that self hosting email just isn't worth it. :/ [21:19] ya…I may end up just coughing up some money [21:19] thanks for the tip though [21:20] or if you don't mind google, they might still host email for free (not sure... they used to) [21:20] oh I didnt know that actually [21:20] (there seems to be a bit of google hate around these parts ) [21:20] yeah, "google apps for your domain" I think [21:21] I don't know if they charge now [21:23] it looks like it is no longer free [21:23] I kind of enjoy learning new things though so this is fine [21:23] by kind of, I mean I do enjoy learning new things [21:47] guys? i have a server with eth0 192.168.1.5 and br0 10.0.0.1 . Moreover i have instances 10.0.0.x . What do i need to set on iptables to make instances rechable from outside the server?? [22:25] jrwren: still around? [22:26] yes [22:26] alright so I am able to send and recieve emails from different accounts on my server [22:26] YAY [22:26] but I get this error when sending from an outside person though [22:29] http://pastebin.com/twuhqLUt [22:30] I think the issue is with godaddy [22:32] do I have to purchase something from them to set up email for my server? [22:43] figured it out, nevermind === thumper is now known as thumper-gym
