[01:13] <noidea> How may I make two instances of vsftpd on one server?
[07:16] <lordievader> Good morning.
[13:45] <Thatguy> How do i stop my xfce booting as I installed it to use it via a x11 forwarding server called x2go
[13:52] <cfhowlett> Thatguy so you want no gui?
[13:52] <Thatguy> yeah
[13:52] <Thatguy> tryed this text mode but cant seem to get it working
[13:52] <Thatguy> added "text" to ther kernal line in grub
[13:53] <Thatguy> but still boots gui
[13:53] <cfhowlett> Thatguy I know what but not how: boot ubuntu to text mode.
[13:53] <cfhowlett> Thatguy it's a grub setting
[13:53] <Thatguy> Yeah do you know where i need to add this setting
[13:55] <cfhowlett> Thatguy I've got a painfully slow connection - ask #ubuntu or ##linux
[13:55] <Thatguy> ok
[13:55]  * cfhowlett thinks "damn Chinese internet"
[13:55] <Thatguy> :( shame
[13:55] <Thatguy> do you VPN it?
[13:58] <zartoosh> HI I am using trusty, I am trying to mount /dev on a already mounted disk partition, "mount --bind /dev  $MNTPOINT/dev"   The mount returns back with error code 32 and dmesg: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) does anyone know what this means? thx
[14:01] <RoyK> zartoosh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7751451/
[14:07] <RoyK> zartoosh: tested that on precise and trusty
[14:07] <cfhowlett> Thatguy nope.  straight from the pipe
[14:07] <Thatguy> cfhowlett:  shame :(
[14:12] <cfhowlett> Thatguy http://askubuntu.com/questions/16371/how-do-i-disable-x-at-boot-time-so-that-the-system-boots-in-text-mode
[14:12] <Thatguy> thanks :D
[14:14] <Thatguy> removed lightdm :D
[14:14] <Thatguy> If it worksi
[14:14] <Thatguy> then ill reinstall xfce
[14:14] <Thatguy> and just remove lightdm
[14:15] <Thatguy> as I'm gona use x2go
[14:15] <Thatguy> look in to it its pretty cool
[14:19] <maddeth> Hi guys, I have a question relating to apache, is there anyone that thinks they could help?
[14:22] <maddeth> I need to change our IP ranges to a new subnet, and I wanted to route both sets of traffic, is there any way I can have 2 IP's on 2 different networks routing to the same websites?
[14:22] <maddeth> or would I be better off asking somewhere else?
[14:23] <Patrickdk> no idea what your attempting
[14:30] <dkorras> hi all, i wonder if anyone could please help me. i have been attempting this all day! I have a Tp-Link TD-W8970 3G router and on my ubuntu machine i have bonding enabled )mode 1 - active-backup) but the minute the LAN is plugged in and the wlan joins the wifi there is NO connectiong. as soon as i disconnect the eth0 the wlan works. i have concluded that the tp link is not allowing wlan
[14:30] <dkorras> and eth to connect from the same mac
[14:35] <RoyK> dkorras: think you'd better use some failover instead of bonding - bonding is meant to keep the ip-address
[14:36] <RoyK> dkorras: see http://www.lartc.org/
[14:39] <RoyK> dkorras: bonding happens on L2, you'd want failover on L3, so bonding isn't the write thing for you
[18:27] <subman> I'm getting the following on my server when trying to update, ideas?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7752456/
[18:31] <Patrickdk> subman, that has nothing to do with updating
[18:31] <Patrickdk> but has everything to do with whatever you did to your user account
[18:31] <Patrickdk> looks like your server is screwed
[18:32] <subman> Patrickdk, just an upgrade was done
[18:32] <Patrickdk> /var/lib/sudo/keithclark/0: Read-only file system
[18:32] <Patrickdk> an upgrade doesn't cause samba to break/ pam to have issues, and your filesystem to be read-only
[18:33] <subman> Patrickdk, I have no answer to that.  Worked before upgrade, does not now.
[18:37] <subman> Patrickdk, from my research it seems that my hard drive is failing.  Nothing to do with user accounts
[18:46] <RoyK> subman: if the filesystem's read only, dmesg should tell why
[18:47] <RoyK> subman: normal action for ubuntu installs is to remount filesystems readonly if something bad happens
[18:51] <subman> No worries, I'll just pull it and scrap it.  Put another in its place.  Everything is backed up.
[19:14] <Thatguy> On my webserver im trying to setup sftp but it wont use my MYSQL Database to get the users like normal ftp does
[19:14] <Thatguy> even though its got all the required configuation lines in the config
[19:15] <Patrickdk> what is normal about normal ftp that ignores local users and uses mysql instead?
[19:16] <Patrickdk> really though, just replace sftp with proftp, it supports sftp
[19:18] <Thatguy> YEha i got proftpd
[19:19] <Thatguy> created a virtualhost for the SFTP
[19:19] <Thatguy> http://pastebin.com/yQ6z8mfb
[19:20] <Thatguy> used that config for it but uses normal ssh details which is wierd
[19:20] <bekks> Thatguy: Thats a webserver config. It has nothing to do with FTP.
[19:20] <Thatguy> yeah it does haha
[19:21] <Thatguy> uses the same tags for the virtualhost
[19:21] <Patrickdk> bekks, doesn't look like a webserver config to me
[19:23] <Patrickdk> hmm, it looks ok
[19:23] <Thatguy> Patrickdk: have you used proftpd much?
[19:23] <Patrickdk> yes
[19:23] <Patrickdk> but not for sftp
[19:24] <Thatguy> I see looks the same as anyone elses SFTP with mysql users
[19:26] <bekks> Thatguy: Because the configuration of vsftpd with virtual users is much more easy.
[19:26] <Patrickdk> vsftpd supports sftp now?
[19:27]  * Patrickdk perfers proftpd over vsftpd any time though
[19:27] <RoyK> vsftpd is nice, but it sucks with ssl, and ftp over ssh kills everything else
[19:27] <Thatguy> bekks: does not really help me with this problem
[19:27] <bekks> Patrickdk: Sure it does.
[19:28] <Patrickdk> must be newish
[19:29] <Patrickdk> where is this sftp support in vsftpd? I can't locate it
[19:30] <Patrickdk> ok, according to the vsftpd website, user manual, and config syntax, it does not support sftp
[19:32] <Thatguy> lol
[19:32]  * Patrickdk thinks bekks is thinking of ftps
[19:32] <Patrickdk> that is one horrible, horrible protocol, ftps
[19:32] <Patrickdk> take everything broken with ftp, and make it unfixable
[19:32] <Thatguy> yeah it is haha
[19:33] <bekks> Patrickdk: Yeah, indeed. For SFTP, all you need is SSH basically :)
[19:33] <Patrickdk> except if you want something odd, like virtual user support :)
[19:33] <Patrickdk> then it gets fun
[19:33] <bekks> And setting up SSH with SFTP with virtual users is still more easy than messing with proftpd :)
[19:34] <Patrickdk> that depends
[19:34] <Patrickdk> you can't chroot sftp
[19:34] <Patrickdk> you can with proftpd
[19:34] <bekks> you can chroot ssh.
[19:34] <Patrickdk> or atleast, the chroot requirements of sftp using ssh, are not practical
[20:23] <sebastianlutter> how can I install virtualbox headless on ubuntu server 14.04 (with rdp). https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads does only lists binaries up to 13.04. Is there no 14.04 version?
[20:29] <bekks> Use the generic installer instead, e.g.
