ehndei have a fakeraid volume that worked fine in fedora, but ubuntu doesn't see it. is there anything i can do to check support for that? or do i have to go to mdadm?13:48
tboathey all, I am currently having an issue where IPtables is blocking samba from showing the share on my Windows Network.  The correct ports are being allowed, as I can direct connect to it, but it won't show automatically13:50
ehndescrew this i'm going to rebuild it with mdadm13:57
arubiHey, anyone downloaded and installed server 12.04 lts 32bit lately?14:47
arubiwhatever I do, I always get an md5sum error during the integrity test14:47
arubitried to download on two different machines, two different internet isps14:48
arubitwo different usb sticks14:48
arubithe md5sum of the iso is always correct, but it always fail during install14:48
arubiI tried copying the image to the usb with unetbootin and dd, no difference14:48
arubiboth machines pass memtest14:48
TJ-arubi: I can try it to a VM if that'd help14:49
arubiOh thanks TJ-14:50
arubithat would help a lot14:50
TJ-It'll have to wait until I've got KDE to replace Unity though - Can't get keyboard input focus to switch to Firefox on another X screen!14:51
arubisounds like something anything other than unity would solve :)14:52
TJ-LOL yeah! Been remodelling my study and switched to a vidock with a 4-head GPU so the lappy can drive 6 monitors... got 4 up now, but Unity has problems with 2 heads, let alone 3 X screens!14:53
TJ-OK, will be back momentarily... if KDE starts!14:53
arubiOkay, gl14:54

nyRedneki'm having a unique issue...i'm stuck behind a captive portal and can't access http. i can, however, ssh to my ubuntu server and would like to find a way around this captive portal if i could via a vpn...15:05
jrwrenif you can ssh you can ssh with -D portnum. that starts a socks5 proxy server on portnum, then just set your web browser to use localhost:portnum as proxy15:07

mibofrahi guys16:32
mibofraa strange thing16:32
mibofraI've set up a bind9 sever, so if I query it from localhost or another remote pc the records I've set are working and the query for other domains too16:34
mibofrabut I can't query the server for other domains that isn't my domain form remote16:34
mibofraexample16:34
mibofraI can query mydomain.com to my ns server with both localhost and another remote pc and get an answer16:38
mibofraI query ubuntu.com: on localhost I get an answer, on the remote pc I get ** server can't find ubuntu.com: REFUSED with nslookup16:38
jrwrenmibofra: do any recursive queries work?16:39
jrwrenmibofra: do you have the "." zone defined?16:40
jrwrenmibofra: its in /etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones by default16:41
mibofrajrwren, ok I've tried, it does the same as it does with the normal queries16:41
mibofrajrwren, I've the zones defined, 216:42
mibofraone normal, one recursive16:42
jrwrenmibofra: i think you need the '.' zone to resolve for anything that you don't have an explicit zone.16:45
jrwrenbasically, you need the "root zone"16:45
mibofrauhm16:46
mibofrabut It's strage that with the same server on localhost it works fine and on a remote pc no xD16:46
jrwrenoh!16:47
jrwrenso 'host www.ubuntu.com localhost' works on the same server running bind16:47
mibofrajrwren, yes If I query the bind server on its own machine it can answer for its records and other domains, if I query on a remote machine it answer to me only for its own records, for anything else I get ** server can't find google.it: REFUSED16:48
mibofrafor example16:49
mibofraso I think I need a special setting to allow this for the remote terminals16:49
jrwrenmy bind config is modified a lot from what defaults in ubuntu16:55
jrwrencan you pastebin your /etc/bind/named.conf and all the includes?16:55
mibofrajrwren, ok17:08

mibofrathat's all jrwren17:12
zottaIs there a way to speed up tcp connections to my server? I need 4 parallel connections to fill the pipe.Is there a setting so that 1 connection will be fast enough?17:16
mibofraok jrwren I've solved17:19
mibofraI need an allow-query { any; }; option17:19
mibofra:)17:19
mibofrajrwren, anyway thanks :)17:20
HiddenDjinntrying to use a vps as a socks5 proxy...getting connection reset every time i try to access a page. any advice?17:21
zottaHiddenDjinn: what program do you use?17:39
HiddenDjinnssh17:42
zottaexact error message of browser?17:45
zottadoes it say something about proxy17:46

jrwrenmibofra: the weird part is that I don't have that and mine is working. *shrug*17:59
mibofrajrwren, ubuntu server 12.10 bind9 1:9.9.3.dfsg.P2-4ubuntu118:00
mibofrayou?18:00
jrwrenmibofra: not exactly, but I HAVE used exactly that with this exact config before.18:02
mibofralol18:02
jrwrenmy config hasn't changed as I upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 and 13.1018:02
mibofrajrwren, the server is a vps so maybe the netconfig is strage xD18:02
mibofraI've to try at home with ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 dev branch and my internet connection18:03
jrwrenwhat about your named.conf.local ?18:06
mibofrajrwren, I didn't send it?18:13
mibofrano ok just a second18:13
jrwrennope, just conf, conf.options and conf.default-zones is what you pasted18:13
jrwrenthanks, i'm trying to learn along with you here :)18:14

mibofrasorry jeffrubic XD18:14
mibofrahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/6579458/ jrwren18:14
jrwrenwow, nothing there either.18:15
jrwrenour configs are nearly identical, yet I don't require the allow-query {any;}; option to allow hosts to use my bind as a recursive server.18:15
jrwrenso weird.18:15
lickalotthello all, looking for a good backup/imaging solution for my server.  i've played with FSarchiver (didn't like) and clonezilla.  But clonezilla is a little more intrusive than I was looking for.  Looking for a simple 1 button/script backup capability > an external source.18:52
lickalottany idea/opinions?18:52

phunyguyhello, got a fresh install of ubuntu-server 12.04.... /boot is ext4, and grub install failed after install.   Any ideas?  It boots to a grub prompt because the install wasn't proper.19:53
krababbelHow is apt-get working when I install a package without doing 'apt-get update' first? Will it install the newer version or the one in my cache?20:20
lifelesskrababbel: it will install the version for which there is metadata in your cache20:21

krababbelI have a server running bind DNS and I want to install OpenLDAP. Do I have to manually edit /etc/ldap/ldap.conf to enter my domain, or can Bind DNS provide this information automatically? I am not sure what record I have to use with Bind.21:28
krababbelWhat can I do when apt-get install does not see that a dependency is already installed? For example I want to install phpldapadmin, and it needs a webserver. I already use lighttpd, and it would satisfy this dependency, but apt-get install wants to install apache2 still.21:52
krababbelI mean how can I prevent the installation of apache, because there is already lighttpd installed. I could do it in aptitude, but I'd need a command line solution.21:54
andolkrababbel: Odd, from what I can see lighttpd should do the trick in this case, given that phpldapadmin depends on apache2 | httpd, and that lighttpd provides httpd.22:00
andolkrababbel: Assuming lighttpd being installed by way of the package manager?22:01
krababbelandol: yes, I just installed it via apt-get. I din't edit sourcer or anything.22:06
krababbelandol: The webserver and ldap server are two separate hosts, I am trying to install phpldapadmin on the webserver, where lighttpd is running already.22:08
krababbelThe systems are updated, they are 13.10 servers, recently installed.22:09
krababbelaptitude wants to install apache also, but there I can just unselect it.22:10
andolkrababbel: Hmm, might have been wrong, because it seems like it insits on apache on my local computer as well, even after having installed lighttpd.22:10
andolkrababbel: Ahh, here we have it.22:11
andolThere is also the dependency libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cli, where libapache-mod-php5 not suprisingly depends on apache22:12
andolIf you beforehand instead install php5-cli it should be fine.22:13
krababbelandol: Of course, thank you a lot.22:13
=== thumper-afk is now known as thumper
krababbelI was wondering if there was some apt-get option I needed to use instead.22:14

hallyn_sarnold: so i've got libvirt starting qemu (under strace -f) as my desktop uid, with apparmomr policy permitting PUx for /usr/bin/pulseaudio.  As my uid on terminal i can run /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start.  But strace shows -EPERM (NOT -EACCESS) when running /usr/bin/pulseaudio.  I'm confused.  Ideas22:15
hallyn_?22:15
hallyn_Oh!  hm, those fersnickety acls maybe22:16
hallyn_nope, not that.22:17
hallyn_so what else can cause a -EPERM there?22:18

CeralesI'm seeing some strange edge cases where, very occasionally, I get connection refused from apache while logrotate.d rotates apache's logs. I checked /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 and /etc/init.d/apache2, and confirmed that the right signals (USR1, i.e. graceful) are being sent. Has anyone encountered this before?22:41

phunyguyHow can I specify manually the drive to install grub to in the 12.04 Server installation?  It keeps assuming /dev/sda, but that is not the drive I am installing to.  In fact, that is what the USB key shows up as.23:32
phunyguyso it keeps installing grub to the USB key instead.23:32
