[00:41] <basil> Hi I've just installed 12.04 Server - and, now the Internet won't work from the Server. Web server seems to be working OK, but I can't use Firefox from my server - it produces an unable to connect error. Any chance of some help please?
[00:44] <Lord_Set> Anyone know if there is a fix for the Samba memory leak in trusty yet?
[01:37] <RoyK> basil: figured it out?
[01:37] <basil> Hi looked for solution on Google...but no!
[01:37] <RoyK> using dhcp?
[01:38] <basil> I have a fixed IP...
[01:38] <basil> I told my router that, but not sure I told Ubuntu
[01:38] <RoyK> pastebin  /etc/network/interfaces, ifconfig and ip addr list
[01:40] <basil> mmm. how do I get that into pastebin without internet...just transcribe to this computer?
[01:40] <RoyK> is it a vm?
[01:41] <basil> no...
[01:41] <basil> I have screens on both...bit of a linux noob..but you knew that
[01:41] <RoyK> it's a wee bit late here
[01:42] <RoyK> so nite
[01:42] <basil> thanks anyway
[02:13] <thedeeno> I'm installing linux-generic-lts-saucy on my 12.04 box
[02:14] <thedeeno> i'm trying to do this via a script, but I'm getting prompted about modifying grub's menu.lst
[02:14] <thedeeno> how do I disable this?
[02:14] <thedeeno> Getting prompted because my menu.lst has been locally modified (by rackspace)
[02:33] <Nothing_Much> Hi I have an Ubuntu 12.04 server and would like to know how to actually get the VPS's server up and running with the latest kernel in 12.04. I recently just upgraded from 10.04 and would want to use a more recent kernel.
[02:34] <thedeeno> apt-cache search linux-generic-lts
[02:34] <thedeeno> Nothing_Much: is a list of kernel backports
[02:35] <thedeeno> you can install one of those packages
[02:35] <Nothing_Much> Thanks
[02:35] <Nothing_Much> I'll reboot and let you know whether it works or not
[02:38] <Nothing_Much> thedeeno: It says it's still using 2.6.32
[02:39] <Nothing_Much> Also this is a VPS and I don't think installing grub would be good..
[02:39] <thedeeno> well, i'm doing the same thing on rackspace atm fwiw. It appears to be working for me, though I have to manually adjust the menu.lst
[02:40] <thedeeno> 12.04 -> saucy
[02:40] <Nothing_Much> Where would the menu.lst be?
[02:41] <thedeeno> mine's in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:41] <Nothing_Much> doesn't look like there's a menu.lst
[02:43] <Nothing_Much> and if I run update-grub2 it gives me a warning
[02:43] <Nothing_Much> hang on a sec
[02:43] <Nothing_Much> /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)
[02:44] <thedeeno> I can't help much more, learning myself. It seems like your host acts quite different than mine
[02:45] <Nothing_Much> oh darn
[02:45] <Nothing_Much> well anybody else have any tips?
[03:11] <jak2000> wich package recommend me install ofr send email? wich MTA? a easy to configure, thanks
[03:12] <Patrickdk> is that all you want?
[03:13] <Patrickdk> use a nullmailer
[03:14] <Nothing_Much> /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?) Anybody know a fix to this?
[03:14] <Nothing_Much> Ubuntu 12.04 with the 2.32 kernel
[03:24] <jak2000> Patrickdk wich is the diference into null mailer and sendmail?
[03:25] <Patrickdk> that depends on your definition of sendmail
[03:26] <jak2000> sendmail is a mtaright?
[03:26] <jak2000> mta right?
[03:26] <Patrickdk> as I said, that depends on *what* you mean by sendmail
[03:27] <Patrickdk> sendmail is an mta, sendmail is also an msa
[03:27] <Patrickdk> but what one you want, I dunno
[03:34] <Nothing_Much> /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?) Anybody know a fix to this?

[08:35] <Hianhif> Hi, my new Ubuntu 13.04 VPS have some language problems. The problem appeared when ever i try too install a new package with apt-get. when i try "locale" it say's cannot set  LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES LC_ALL, No such file or directory. respectively. Also, auto-complete does not work. Suggestions? :)
[15:22] <bekks> Hianhif: 13.04 is EOL.

[16:28] <cheval> Hey guys i have a question about ubuntu server installation. Anyone there?
[16:29] <Hianhif> bekks, ty
[16:30] <Hianhif> cheval, In my experience. Just ask your question with as complete information as you can. And then wait between 5 mins too 12 hours. :)
[16:30] <cheval> Hianhif: Thanks for tip
[16:36] <cheval> Goal: Create an Ubuntu Server with "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM". Problem: It fails on Grub installation on sda or boot section. Remark 1: I done this before with Crunchbang and it worked. Remark 2: I dont have knowlendge on manual install. I can learn, but i am asking: Why the Guided install fails? I mean isn't supposed to be reliable? Remark 3: I tried on both Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.10 Server x86. Thanks you!

[18:00] <jak2000> Patrickdk hi friend are you there?
[19:30] <jak2000> how to check if a port is opened (or blocked) ? i am interested in port 2121
[21:33] <raj_> I wasn't getting any logs written to log files under /var/log on my fresh 12.04 install & figured out that rsyslog was not installed .. after install.. logs are getting written.. does this mean that I need to manually install rsyslog inorder to get the logs written ??
[21:35] <RoyK> raj_: rsyslog has always been installed by default on my installs
[21:42] <raj_> RoyK: dont know why it was not there on 12.04 server that I got from my host.. i did manually install it via apt-get .. would that be fine ? previously i wasn't getting any logs nor anything asked me to configure that..
[21:58] <raj_> " kernel: Cannot read proc file system: 1 - Operation not permitted. " getting these messages repeated, unstoppingly million times every minute in my syslog, anyone has any idea please ???
[22:01] <Patrickdk> sounds like your not running your own system, but using some vps thing
[22:10] <raj_> Patrickdk: yes that is a openvz vps
[22:14] <raj_> Patrickdk: is that something to do with my openvz vps ??
[22:15] <Patrickdk> likely
[22:16] <raj_> Patrickdk: but I can access anything inside of /proc though .. then what ?
[22:16] <thumper> stgraber, hallyn: how do I pass new userdata to lxc-clone now?
[22:18] <Patrickdk> it's a shared kernel, it might be an error message from another system
[22:18] <Patrickdk> don't really know how these openvz's work
[22:19] <Patrickdk> likely why they purposely didn't isntall rsyslog
[22:20] <raj_> yeah exactly rsyslog was also not installed for me..
[22:24] <raj_> Patrickdk:  "shared kernel" so that would mean that not all logs in kern.log are related to my VPS ?? but infact I noticied that it was consuming enourmous CPU due to this .. so it must be from mine I guess..
[22:26] <thumper> stgraber, hallyn: nm, found smoser's blog post
[23:23] <m1sf1t> hi, i have a problem. I recently installed ubuntu server (the latest LTS, I think it's 12.04). I also have the LXDE environment installed for browsing. Firefox, ping and nslookup were working fine. Now they don't. What's strange is that apache2, samba, and SSH are all still up. Any thoughts?
