[02:25] Hey guys I'm looking at setting up a SMTP server so my server can email me log details any one know of any good guides ? [02:26] Cause at the moment I'm looking at : http://kylegoslin.wordpress.com/2012/06/05/116/ but where it has example@example.com can i just put anything there in the config ? === rdw200169_ is now known as rdw200169 [06:10] is there someone online who can assist me? [06:12] what is the best open source program to keep files on a computer synchronized with an external hd? [08:05] moopers, why are you asking that here? === JurgenVE is now known as |Jurgen| === Ursinha_ is now known as Ursinha [13:48] i 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? [13:50] hey 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 automatically [13:57] screw this i'm going to rebuild it with mdadm [14:47] Hey, anyone downloaded and installed server 12.04 lts 32bit lately? [14:47] whatever I do, I always get an md5sum error during the integrity test [14:48] tried to download on two different machines, two different internet isps [14:48] two different usb sticks [14:48] the md5sum of the iso is always correct, but it always fail during install [14:48] I tried copying the image to the usb with unetbootin and dd, no difference [14:48] both machines pass memtest [14:49] arubi: I can try it to a VM if that'd help [14:50] Oh thanks TJ- [14:50] that would help a lot [14:51] 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! [14:52] sounds like something anything other than unity would solve :) [14:53] 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] OK, will be back momentarily... if KDE starts! [14:54] Okay, gl === chmurifree is now known as chmuri [15:05] i'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... [15:07] if 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 proxy [16:13] ls [16:13] whoops === guampa_ is now known as guampa [16:32] hi guys [16:32] a strange thing [16:34] I'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 too [16:34] but I can't query the server for other domains that isn't my domain form remote [16:34] example [16:38] I can query mydomain.com to my ns server with both localhost and another remote pc and get an answer [16:38] I query ubuntu.com: on localhost I get an answer, on the remote pc I get ** server can't find ubuntu.com: REFUSED with nslookup [16:39] mibofra: do any recursive queries work? [16:40] mibofra: do you have the "." zone defined? [16:41] mibofra: its in /etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones by default [16:41] jrwren, ok I've tried, it does the same as it does with the normal queries [16:42] jrwren, I've the zones defined, 2 [16:42] one normal, one recursive [16:45] mibofra: i think you need the '.' zone to resolve for anything that you don't have an explicit zone. [16:45] basically, you need the "root zone" [16:46] uhm [16:46] but It's strage that with the same server on localhost it works fine and on a remote pc no xD [16:47] oh! [16:47] so 'host www.ubuntu.com localhost' works on the same server running bind [16:48] jrwren, 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: REFUSED [16:49] for example [16:49] so I think I need a special setting to allow this for the remote terminals [16:55] my bind config is modified a lot from what defaults in ubuntu [16:55] can you pastebin your /etc/bind/named.conf and all the includes? [17:08] jrwren, ok [17:10] jrwren, named.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579104/ [17:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579119/ named.conf.options [17:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579125/ named.conf.default-zones [17:12] that's all jrwren [17:16] Is 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? [17:19] ok jrwren I've solved [17:19] I need an allow-query { any; }; option [17:19] :) [17:20] jrwren, anyway thanks :) [17:21] trying to use a vps as a socks5 proxy...getting connection reset every time i try to access a page. any advice? [17:39] HiddenDjinn: what program do you use? [17:42] ssh [17:45] exact error message of browser? [17:46] does it say something about proxy [17:46] or not [17:59] mibofra: the weird part is that I don't have that and mine is working. *shrug* [18:00] jrwren, ubuntu server 12.10 bind9 1:9.9.3.dfsg.P2-4ubuntu1 [18:00] you? [18:02] mibofra: not exactly, but I HAVE used exactly that with this exact config before. [18:02] lol [18:02] my config hasn't changed as I upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 and 13.10 [18:02] jrwren, the server is a vps so maybe the netconfig is strage xD [18:03] I've to try at home with ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 dev branch and my internet connection [18:06] what about your named.conf.local ? [18:13] jrwren, I didn't send it? [18:13] no ok just a second [18:13] nope, just conf, conf.options and conf.default-zones is what you pasted [18:14] thanks, i'm trying to learn along with you here :) [18:14] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579458/ jeffrubic [18:14] sorry jeffrubic XD [18:14] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579458/ jrwren [18:15] wow, nothing there either. [18:15] our 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] so weird. [18:52] hello 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] any idea/opinions? === three18t- is now known as three18ti [19:53] hello, 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. [20:20] How 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? [20:21] krababbel: it will install the version for which there is metadata in your cache [20:22] lifeless: Thank you. === thumper is now known as thumper-afk === freeflying is now known as freeflying_away === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying === freeflying is now known as freeflying_away [21:28] I 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. [21:52] What 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. [21:54] I 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. [22:00] krababbel: 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. [22:01] krababbel: Assuming lighttpd being installed by way of the package manager? [22:06] andol: yes, I just installed it via apt-get. I din't edit sourcer or anything. [22:08] andol: The webserver and ldap server are two separate hosts, I am trying to install phpldapadmin on the webserver, where lighttpd is running already. [22:09] The systems are updated, they are 13.10 servers, recently installed. [22:10] aptitude wants to install apache also, but there I can just unselect it. [22:10] krababbel: Hmm, might have been wrong, because it seems like it insits on apache on my local computer as well, even after having installed lighttpd. [22:11] krababbel: Ahh, here we have it. [22:12] There is also the dependency libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cli, where libapache-mod-php5 not suprisingly depends on apache [22:13] If you beforehand instead install php5-cli it should be fine. [22:13] andol: Of course, thank you a lot. === thumper-afk is now known as thumper [22:14] I was wondering if there was some apt-get option I needed to use instead. [22:14] andol: Thank you. :) [22:14] krababbel: Glad it worked out. [22:15] 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. Ideas [22:15] ? [22:16] Oh! hm, those fersnickety acls maybe [22:17] nope, not that. [22:18] so what else can cause a -EPERM there? [22:23] i am trying to get an atheros usb wifi adapter working on 12.04. it has chipset AR5523, i have searched the web and followed the guides that seem to have worked for other folks. lsusb shows the device but no firmware. i have copied the firmware to /lib/firmware and done modprobe ar5523 and still no luck. can anyone help me get this going? [22:25] i know its odd for wifi on the server machine. i have a device that connects only over wifi that i would like to use with this machine === arubi is now known as arubi_ [22:41] I'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? === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying === freeflying is now known as freeflying_away [22:52] I'm seeing some strange edge cases where, very occasionally, I get connection refused from apache while logrotate.d rotates apache's logs.

[22:52] whoops [23:17] ah, secvomp i bet [23:17] seccomp that is [23:32] How 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] so it keeps installing grub to the USB key instead. === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying
