TheOpenSourcererI noticed getting something called the "Ubuntu Web Broswer" which I'm not sure I ever installed before. Looks like it is the converged browser to run on phones etc, but is a bit of a pig to use with a mouse :-(07:46

TheOpenSourcererApologies for the unnecessary "am" there.09:37
bashrcvote early and often09:37
* awilkins will probably vote Green09:37
awilkinsHaving read the manifestos I agree more with them than other parties09:37
MartijnVdSTheOpenSourcerer: I go to work at 7, but they only opened the polling place at 7:30. So I'll go vote after work.09:37
awilkinsThey just need to fix their silly retrogressive policy on nuclear energy09:38
TheOpenSourcererIt doesn't really matter who you vote for*. Just as long you vote.09:38
TheOpenSourcerer* Apart from the mad UKIP and ultra-right parties of course...09:38
awilkinsThe Green party should enthusiastically support the development of fusion09:38
bashrcI don't know if there is any fusion research being done in the uk09:39
TheOpenSourcererIMHO We should invest the 50Bn they are planning to spend on that railway line into Fusion research instead.09:39
TheOpenSourcereryes there is bashrc09:39
TheOpenSourcererJET09:39
Laneyscrap HS2, spend money developing fusion09:39

awilkinsSponsor lots of projects, not just pour money into tokamaks09:41
TheOpenSourcererAgreed. 50bn would go a *very* long way.09:41
awilkinsYeah, you could start 50 independent fusion foundations each charged to find and support a different project.09:42
bashrchttp://www.ccfe.ac.uk/MAST.aspx09:42
awilkinsShould be the Manhattan project of this age09:42
MartijnVdSawilkins: does that mean they'll only develop it if there's a war on?09:43
awilkinsI sponsored these guys because I liked their Google talk a while back : https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/focus-fusion-empowertheworld--309:43
awilkinsMartijnVdS, There will be a war of one kind or another over resources09:44
awilkinsMartijnVdS, You could claim that the initial moves are already being made what with the Russian gas thing09:44

xnoxLaney: maybe it wasn't cup of tea they weired out about. But the fluffy slippers & dressing gown?! =))))))09:51
Laney:P09:52
xnoxWell most of British nuclear power comes from.... EDF and their french power plants =)09:55
xnoxitalians, german and australians are strange to be so against it....09:55
awilkinsThe problem is all these antiquated PWRs09:56
xnoxPWRs?!09:56
awilkinsAnd people wanting to build more of them because they are "proven technology!!"09:56
awilkinsPressurised Water Reactor09:56
xnoxack.09:56
bigcalmsyn09:56
awilkinsGovernments *really* want to build more of them because they make plutonium09:56
awilkinsBut more modern reactor designs have fewer headaches09:57
bashrcthe pressurised water reactors detonate if they lose cooling.  That seems like a design flaw to me10:06

cocoa117how do you make public_key authendication possible when you going through hoops of machines. E.g. server1 should only use firewall's public key to login, even when user connect it through hoops of firewall11:00
cocoa117at the moment, it seems the ssh always asking for local machine's private key to authedicates11:00
awilkinscocoa117, Allow agent forwarding11:03
cocoa117awilkins, on which machine? from the local machine?11:03
awilkinscocoa117, Also, note that if you are using a screen multiplexer to keep sessions alive on these machines, disconnecting and reconnecting usually breaks that agent forwarding (for me, at least)11:03
cocoa117awilkins, so u mena tmux as multiplexer?11:04
awilkinscocoa117, add ForwardAgent yes to your ~/.ssh/config file (on a per-host basis if you are security minded)11:04
cocoa117awilkins, ok, i will give that a try, hold on11:04
awilkinscocoa117, I use byobu with tmux or screen usually11:04
cocoa117awilkins, i enabled on config file for both machine, the final server and firewall, it still showing permission denied (publickey) issue11:06
awilkinsSo it's enabled on your local client, and you established a brand new session to the first machine in the chain?11:07
cocoa117awilkins, i did have ControlPersist yes setup, should i close that one and try again11:07
awilkinsYeah, AFAIK it sets an environment variable for your agent when you first connect11:08
awilkinsSo existing terms will have no variable / old variable when you reconnect11:08
awilkinsWhich is why it breaks across sessions11:09
cocoa117awilkins, still not working. by enabling debug, i can still see following11:13
cocoa117ffering RSA public key: /root/.ssh/id_rsa11:13
cocoa117debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey11:13
cocoa117debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_dsa11:13
cocoa117debug1: No more authentication methods to try.11:13
cocoa117Permission denied (publickey).11:13
cocoa117awilkins, i am guessing it still trying using my local key to authendicate11:14
awilkinsIt's trying roots keys11:14
cocoa117awilkins, by the way, i am using ProxyCommand ssh firewall nc %h %p 2> /dev/null11:15
awilkinsAnd yes, local ones11:15
awilkinsNo idea what ProxyCommand does11:15
awilkinsAre the keys you want on the servers?11:15
cocoa117awilkins, on config file for which host should i set the ForwardAgent yes? should it both firewall and final destination server?11:15
cocoa117awilkins, yes, i can issue manual ssh server1 on firewall to login right way without asking password11:16
awilkinsIs the key you want actually in root's home folder?11:16
awilkinsMaybe this article will help :http://blog.lyte.id.au/2012/03/19/ssh-agent-forwarding-is-a-bug/11:17
