[05:17] <bateee> Hello, could someone please guide me to find a guideline for recommended settings for ubuntu server security audit configuration. I need to find out a standard set of rules that can be configured with auditing facility of ubuntu.
[05:22] <sarnold> bateee: the auditctl(8) manpage has some examples; I _really_ like the SUSE documentation of the audit system, I think it's top-notch writing about a complicated tool http://doc.opensuse.org/products/draft/SLES/SLES-security_sd_draft/cha.audit.comp.html
[05:23] <sarnold> bateee: obviously some things won't be identical on ubuntu, but the vast majority of that text ought to be useful.
[05:53] <PaulePanter> Looking at the log files in `/var/log/upstart` the last thing is
[05:53] <PaulePanter> # more /var/log/upstart/udev-fallback-graphics.log
[05:53] <PaulePanter> FATAL: Error inserting vesafb (/lib/modules/3.8.0-31-generic/initrd/vesafb.ko): No such device
[05:54] <PaulePanter> This is retrieved from a rescue system and there is nothing in `/var/log/dmesg`. This is Ubuntu 12.04 on a remote server, so I just have a SSH session to a rescue system.

[10:20] <lotuspsychje> hello all
[10:20] <lotuspsychje> what you guys reccomend for server backup?
[10:22] <rbasak> What sort of server backup?
[10:22] <lotuspsychje> ubuntu server, settings and packages
[10:23] <lotuspsychje> lets say the main hd crashes, to restore everything
[10:24] <PaulePanter> Do you also have that with Ubuntu 12.04?
[10:24] <PaulePanter> $ more /var/log/upstart/ureadahead-other.log
[10:24] <PaulePanter> ureadahead:/var/lib/ureadahead/boot.pack: No such file or directory
[10:24] <PaulePanter> Could you please check?
[10:24] <PaulePanter> I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead/+bug/1077570 but it did not get any useful answers.
[10:27] <rbasak> smoser: could you subscribe ~ubuntu-server to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uvtool please?
[10:27]  * rbasak isn't a team admin
[10:58] <jamespage> zul, I pushed a new python-lesscpy from the Debian git repository with an additional patch to make it work on python3.3
[10:58] <jamespage> also pushed that upstream as well and let zigo know
[11:08] <grn> I installed postfix on a server. Only one local user should be allowed to send mail to a particular domain (let's say example.com). How can I configure postfix to achieve that?

[12:00] <ws2k3> Hello my ubuntu server sometimes randomly reboots the error i have in my kern.log is : imklog: Cannot open proc file system
[12:01] <ws2k3> i found this bug on launchepad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/rsyslog/+bug/523610 but i'm not sure if thats the problem i have because the error is not compleetly the same
[12:05] <zul> jamespage:  can you +1 the lxc branch for me please
[12:10] <PaulePanter> sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.4 restart
[12:10] <PaulePanter> is mentioned in https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/serverguide.pdf
[12:10] <PaulePanter> Is the guide going to be updated to use the recommended upstart commands?
[12:12] <PaulePanter> Git is also not mentioned in it. ;-)
[12:15] <jamespage> zul, sorry - one second
[12:20] <jamespage> zul, adam_g: well az zone configuration did not work how I expected it to!
[12:28] <zul> jamespage:  ?
[12:29] <jamespage> zul, I lasted looked in folsom where it was a configuration file option
[12:29] <jamespage> zul, you now assign nodes to zones using host aggregates
[12:29] <zul> jamespage:  ah yes
[12:29] <jamespage> in >= grizzly
[12:30] <jamespage> zul, just wondering whether it even makes sense to try and support az's in the nova charms or not
[12:30] <jamespage> or whether thats something we do external to the charms
[12:30] <jamespage> like we do for creation of neutron networks etc...
[12:30] <zul> jamespage:  i think it might be a good feature but im not crazy about it
[12:31] <ws2k3> Hello
[12:32] <ws2k3> sometimes my server rebooten and then i have the following error in my kern.log
[12:32] <ws2k3> imklog: Cannot open proc file system, 2.
[12:35] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Maybe because it has been unmounted to due to the restart?
[12:35] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Find out, what is causing the reboot. Or does it crash?
[12:35] <ws2k3> well i dont know yet
[12:35] <ws2k3> i'm trying to find out Why my servers reboot every 4/5 days
[12:36] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Paste /var/log/syslog and `/var/log/messages` somewhere.
[12:37] <ws2k3> the entire file ?
[12:39] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Maybe just everything happening 10 minutes before the reboot.
[12:39] <smoser> rbasak, i can't do that. i will try to get admin
[12:40] <smoser> zul, awake?
[12:40] <zul> smoser: in theory
[12:40] <zul> smoser:  physically yes...mentally no
[12:40] <smoser> can you make me admin of ~ubuntu-server
[12:40] <smoser> please
[12:41] <zul> arent you already?
[12:42] <zul> smoser: done
[12:45] <smoser> thanks
[12:46] <smoser> rbasak, done.
[12:56] <ws2k3> PaulePanter i sended you 2 links one is my syslog and one is my messages
[13:08] <rbasak> Thanks!
[13:10] <ws2k3> PaulePanter are you still around?
[13:18] <ws2k3> Hello i'm trying to figure out why my ubuntu server reboots reguarly
[13:19] <resno> ws2k3: im curious is this a phyiscial or vm?
[13:20] <zul> jamespage:  rc1 is out for keystone ill get it today
[13:21] <jamespage> zul, good - lets drip feed them through as they release
[13:22] <ws2k3> physicial
[13:22] <irv> hello, my /boot partition has filled up to the point of not being able to run apt-get remove linux-image-xx for to free up some space by removing the old kernels
[13:22] <irv> which files can i manually remove safely from there to temporarily be able to free enough space to properly remove the unused kernels
[13:23] <resno> check syslog. the usual suspects, bad ram, overheatting cpu
[13:23] <ws2k3> resno i already did that
[13:23] <resno> already did what?
[13:23] <resno> i listed 3 things
[13:23] <ws2k3> i allready checked those things
[13:24] <ws2k3> only thing i can find in kern.log is kernel: imklog: Cannot open proc file system, 2.
[13:24] <ws2k3> but i dont know if that is something
[13:25] <resno> howd you test the ram?
[13:26] <resno> i quite sure your issue is heat releated or failure of a component
[13:28] <ws2k3> resno i am pretty sure that heat or hardware failure is also not the problem because i have like 5 servers with the same behaviour
[13:30] <ws2k3> i do have this line in my var/log/messages ct  2 13:27:23 web190 rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="3595" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] exiting on signal 15.
[13:30] <zul> jamespage/roaksoax: quick and easy https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/horizon/lesscpy/+merge/188834
[13:34] <ws2k3> anyone?
[13:39] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Sorry. I could not spot anything in these files either.
[13:40] <PaulePanter> ws2k3: Normally there is a method: some process requested the system to reboot or so. I could not find it and I do not know where it is stored.
[13:42] <jamespage> zul, needs fixing
[13:42] <resno> ws2k3: just because one machine has failed does mean all the others would fail at the same time. if you have looked into it, then fine. if you are assuming its ok then just check into it is all im suggesting
[13:44] <zul> jamespage:  fixed
[13:46] <soren> jamespage: How did you test that patch yesterday? Which operations did you attempt? crumbs are only needed when POSTing.
[13:47] <jamespage> soren, triggering a build
[13:51] <jamespage> zul, last iteration of lxc stuff I promise - but please can the patch have some headers!
[13:51] <zul> jamespage:  dep8 headers?
[13:51] <jamespage> zul, yep
[13:51] <zul> jamespage:  ack
[13:51] <jamespage> it has zip right now
[13:54] <zul> jamespage:  done
[13:57] <resno> ws2k3: have you check dmesg?
[13:57] <ws2k3> yeah i was unable to find anything in dmesg
[13:57] <ws2k3> the server do reboot every 3/4 days but not at the same time
[13:58] <jamespage> zul, python-werkzeug is causing me grief for the cloud-archive - it wants dh-python
[13:58] <ws2k3> so its not enviremental
[13:58] <ws2k3> also dmesg does not have timestamps
[13:58] <zul> jamespage:  backport dh-python then?
[13:58] <jamespage> zul,
[13:58] <jamespage>  sbuild-build-depends-dh-python-dummy : Depends: libpython3-stdlib but it is not installable
[13:59] <zul> jamespage:  oh...not good
[13:59] <jamespage> no
[13:59] <zul> jamespage:  i would just build without dh-python then :(
[13:59] <jamespage> zul, maybe - I'll look
[13:59] <zul> jamespage:  ack
[14:00] <resno> ws2k3: does it gracefully reboot or just power cut type?
[14:00] <ws2k3> how can i find out
[14:00] <ws2k3> i do know its a signal 15
[14:01] <ws2k3> so i assume thats not a power cut
[14:01] <ws2k3> rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="3595" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] exiting on signal 15.
[14:12] <jamespage> zul, OK _ I'm going to be pragmatic and push a ~cloud1 for flask to drop the python3 stuff
[14:12] <jamespage> which we don't need anyway
[14:12] <zul> jamespage:  okiedokies
[14:12] <jamespage> that way we can stick with 12.04 werkzeug
[14:13] <soren> jamespage: That's a GET request, AFAICT.
[14:13] <jamespage> zul, one last thing on the headers and then all good for LXC
[14:13] <jamespage> soren, its probably OK then
[14:13] <zul> jamespage:  k
[14:15] <soren> jamespage: Yeah, so it's apparently not supposed to be prevented by CSRF protection.
[14:16] <soren> I'm not sure why, but that at least explains why you're not seeing the problem the patch is meant to fix.
[14:17] <jamespage> zul, Laney has a question on the FFe about the LXC inclusion that you need to answer pre-upload as well
[14:18] <zul> jamespage:  looking
[14:18] <jamespage> soren, OK _ well I don't see that your patch is breaking anything so +1
[14:18] <jamespage> I'll merge shortly
[14:18] <soren> jamespage: {copy,rename,delete,enable,disable,create,reconfig}_job  are all affected.
[14:19] <jamespage> soren, ack
[14:19] <soren> Oh, and delete_node.
[14:19] <soren> I think that's it.
[14:21] <jamespage> soren, I see
[14:21] <jamespage> soren, OK - confirmed as fixing that issue - definately merging
[14:27] <Sander^work> Why is ther 100MB of usage here: /var/lib/apt/lists
[14:27] <Sander^work> ?
[14:27] <Sander^work> disk usage.
[14:30] <zul> jamespage:  dep8 updated
[14:32] <zul> rbasak:  *grumble* i dont see why not, ill do the packaging if you file the FFE
[14:32] <rbasak> zul: I'm worried about breaking things this late in the cycle.
[14:32] <zul> rbasak:  thats my concern as well
[14:33] <zul> rbasak:  i can cherrypick the patches though as well
[14:33] <rbasak> zul: Clark just emailed me a list (without commit ids!). I'll see if they apply cleanly.
[14:34] <zul> rbasak:  i have the same list
[14:34] <rbasak> Oh you got them too
[14:34] <zul> rbasak:  ill poke at it this afternoon
[14:40] <soren> jamespage: Ta very much.
[14:41] <jamespage> soren, no - thank you!
[14:48] <Sander^work> How come /var uses 225MB of space according to du.. but 8,7gb according to df?: http://pastebin.com/HZJUCNUT
[14:58] <zyga> hey, is there a simple way to make lxc-create use a local mirror instead of the main archive?
[15:01]  * zyga just found MIRROR and SECURITY_MIRROR, thanks
[15:15] <jamespage> zul, I've uploaded the previous flash version as the current to avoid pulling in all the extra dependencies - its a hack but will work
[15:15] <jamespage> flash == flask
[15:15] <zul> ack
[15:22] <jamespage> zul, urgh - this is a mess - I need newer python-werkzeug
[15:23] <jamespage> but I don;t want to pull in all the python3 stuff
[15:25] <zul> jamespage:  welcome to my world of PAIN :)

[16:11] <jamespage> zul, the python-wsme problem is a flakey test case IMHO
[16:12] <jamespage> zul, I think the later version of werkzeug in saucy is hiding a failure
[16:52] <jamespage> zul, OK _ I'm trying for a Saucy fix on flask tests in python-wsme to fixup the cloud-archive - it hopefully the release team will be nice :-)
[16:53] <zul> jamespage:  cool...i just uploaded keystone rc1
[16:53] <jamespage> I saw
[16:53] <zul> working on glance
[16:53] <jamespage> glance rc1 also out
[16:53] <jamespage> oh - snap!
[16:53] <jamespage> I'm not
[16:53] <jamespage> working on glance that is
[16:54] <zul> goody because the tests are melting my laptop
[16:54] <jamespage> zul, I pushed the wsme fix upstream as well - https://github.com/stackforge/wsme/pull/1
[16:55] <jamespage> I don't actually understand the test case - its looks wonky to me
[16:55] <zul> cool!
[16:57] <jamespage> zul, inbetween rc's could you take a look at libvirt and xen in the CA
[16:57] <zul> jamespage:  ack
[16:58] <zul> jamespage:  whats wrong with libvirt?
[16:58] <jamespage> zul, its out-of-date

[16:58] <jamespage> http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/ubuntu-server/cloud-archive/havana_versions.html
[16:59] <jamespage> zul, where is your LXC code work?
[17:00] <zul> jamespage:  as in a git repo?
[17:01] <jamespage> zul, yeah - or gerrit review or something
[17:01] <zul> jamespage:  i need to update it gimme a sec
[17:06] <zul> jamespage:  https://github.com/zulcss/nova
[17:06] <jamespage> zul, thats good
[17:07] <jamespage> zul, i would put "Forwarded: no, https://github.com/zulcss/nova"
[17:07] <zul> jamespage:  k just a sec
[17:08] <zul> jamespage:  pushed

[18:06] <tasslehoff> I'm trying to find out how to best share a folder from my server so that I can stream media from it on my android phone/tablets. Any tips?
[18:19] <lenios> tasslehoff, http would be a good way
[18:19] <lenios> install apache2 and put everything in /var/www
[18:25] <tasslehoff> lenios: hm. feels odd to have it there. currently I have various media folders in /data, and share it out with smb. the issues I had were that file managers in android either could not log in or wanted to download instead of streaming.
[18:26] <tasslehoff> then I found good old total commander :)
[18:35] <pleia2> hallyn: happen to be around? instead of going back and forth in this iscsi bug report it might be more efficient to chat for a couple minutes
[18:37] <hallyn> pleia2: sure
[18:38] <pleia2> hallyn: just uploaded new strace to the bug, is that what you're looking for?
[18:40] <hallyn> (waiting on launchpadlibrarian.net)
[18:48] <hallyn> pleia2: yeah so what has me confused is why you're able to bind to the netlink socket.
[18:49] <pleia2> hallyn: it was actually surprising while I was testing this that I could, which is what made me assume it would be usable, but alas
[18:50] <hallyn> ok, but so it's binding to netlink type 8, which is iscsi, which points to
[18:50] <hallyn> ../../drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c:3989: nls = netlink_kernel_create(&init_net, NETLINK_ISCSI, &cfg);
[18:51] <hallyn> so have you talked to SpamapS about other configurations?
[18:51] <pleia2> not yet
[18:52] <pleia2> it's a broader team discussion because this is actually testing infrastructure, so we want to make sure we're testing the same thing that is actually being used
[18:52] <pleia2> cc: lifeless ^^
[18:53] <hallyn> thanks for the straces btw.  the one remaining puzzle there is why the container after netlink failure tries to open a new connection to the qemu host.
[18:53] <hallyn> (but that's irrelevant as to the core issue)
[18:55] <lifeless> hallyn: pleia2: will bbiab to chat
[18:55] <pleia2> thanks

[22:24] <zul> adam_g:  what do you mean?
[22:25] <zul> adam_g:  ceilometer builds fine for me with that branch
[22:25] <adam_g> zul,  how much confidence do you have that when you upload the package to ubuntu its going to build okay?
[22:25] <zul> adam_g:  pretty good confidence
[22:26] <adam_g> zul, our jenkins doesnt seem so happy
[22:26] <zul> adam_g:  cinder needs a new babel apparently :(
[22:27] <zul> adam_g:  ill go talk to cinder upstream
[22:27] <adam_g> zul, even things like glance + ceilomter don't appear to be healthy atm
[22:29] <zul> adam_g:  ceilometer is building fine at least ill look at cinder next
[22:29] <adam_g> zul, where is it building fine?

[22:30] <adam_g> zul, can you get them building on our jenkins cluster and in the saucy testing PPA?
[22:30] <zul> adam_g:  sure approve the branch first ;)
[22:30] <adam_g> i'm updating the build configs to pull from milestone-proposed instead of master for those that have rcs
