[10:03] <gdi2k> hi all - this is not ubuntu specific, but I have a hardware question and I am sure there are plenty with the experience. I've bought a low-end Lenovo Thinkserver TS140 plus a used Intel PRO/1000 PT Dual Port adapter to go with it. However, with the adapter installed, it takes forever to POST - like up to 5 minutes. Once it boots things are fine and the adapter works like it should. Any ideas?
[10:04] <gdi2k> I've read it may have to do with PCIe initialization (old adapter on very new / fast hardware) ?
[10:15] <cfhowlett> gdi2k, lenovo has a English language channel or forum somewhere

[12:25] <kully> Hey all! I have a server I just imaged VIA clonezilla, moved to virtualbox, and the server keeps screaming about detected tx unit hang when I put it with no network, anyway I can just disable this? I can't put it on the network as the other server is still live and I need to test and I can't while it's screaming

[14:09] <vahid> Have you Idea?
[14:44] <itadder> how do I run security update patches with ubuntu server

[15:59] <vmdsch1> What is the best alternative to vmbuilder?
[16:21] <streulma> hello is it needed to upgrade to 14.04 for server? I have now 12.04
[16:22] <Pici> streulma: 12.04 will be supported until 2017.  You only need to upgrade if you want to.
[16:22] <patdk-wk> or if you think you will still be managing that machine in 2017 :)
[16:23] <RoyK> patdk-wk: then the machine can be updated when it gets closer to 2017 ;)
[16:23] <patdk-wk> why put off work for later when you won't have time :)
[16:24] <RoyK> patdk-wk: well, if it works, don't fix it ;)
[16:25] <dasjoe> That is only valid if your HWE is based on trusty or you're not using it at all
[16:25] <patdk-wk> if you break it now, you have 3 years to fix it :)
[16:25] <RoyK> patdk-wk: :D
[16:25] <patdk-wk> what is only valid?
[16:27] <patdk-wk> oh as far as support?
[16:27] <patdk-wk> I was pretty sure hwe would autoupgrade, and everyone, assuming they install updates at all, would have trusty hwe now, or no hwe
[16:27] <patdk-wk> either way, supported
[16:31] <streulma> do you know what I did? I maked virtualbox vm of Server 12.04 and copied the whole disk tar to hosting provider :)
[16:32] <streulma> it works !
[16:35] <RoyK> streulma: it usually does, although you may have to remove things like /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[16:37] <streulma> RoyK yes indeed :) and copied fstab back and mtab and /boot/grub/menu.lst
[16:37] <RoyK> streulma: it's not windows, you know ;)
[16:37] <streulma> they use Bochs
[16:39]  * RoyK hadn't even heard of Bochs
[16:55] <sarnold> RoyK: you probably have, just try to remember a decade ago..
[16:55] <dasjoe> patdk-wk: it doesn't autoupdate unless you chose the -eol versions
[16:58] <patdk-wk> yes, so if you HAVE hwe, it should be trusty, and nothing else :)
[17:03] <RoyK> sarnold: no, that one must have slipped
[17:04] <sarnold> RoyK: hehe :)
[17:04] <RoyK> sarnold: I have a fairly good memory, but didn'd to much virtualisation back in 2004 :P
[17:06] <sarnold> RoyK: well, to be fair, bochs was too slow for actual use then
[17:06] <sarnold> RoyK: it was like the linux-in-javascript thing, "ooh, neat"
[17:06] <sarnold> RoyK: or of actual use to kernel people because the ycould single-step their cpu :) but not much actual utility
[17:08] <RoyK> afaics from wikipedia, it still doesn't have any cpu virtualisation features, which sounds to me like a Very Bad Idea Indeed for production
[17:10] <jdstrand> hallyn (fyi mdeslaur): fyi bug #1358405
[17:41] <RobC207> Good day! /var/log/apt has history logs where installs and upgrades are recorded.  This is very useful information, but...is there a log created (and preserved?!) regarding the package selections made during the initial OS install process?
[17:44] <RoyK> RobC207: don't think so - why?
[17:48] <RobC207> RoyK: Auditing a server to prepare for replacing 10.04 with 14.
[17:49] <RoyK> RobC207: you can only upgrade to 12.04 with do-release-upgrade, but then, just do it twice
[17:49] <RoyK> RobC207: the upgrade process will install what's there, regardless of what was there in the first place
[18:01] <RobC207> RoyK: Well I suppose I should at least try that route.  Maybe after a full backup.
[18:02] <RoyK> RobC207: always do a full backup (or snapshot, if it's a VM and the hypervisor/filesystem supports that) before upgrading
[19:06] <ldelarosa> Hey guys i just set up the access to my ubuntu server using key-based ssh logins and it works fine. And lock the password for the local user. Now I can't do anything as sudo, because it asking for the password for that user but i locked it.
[19:06] <ldelarosa> What can I do?
[19:14] <dasjoe> ldelarosa: boot into single-user mode and change the user's password. Then disable password auth in sshd.conf, instead of locking your account
[19:16] <dasjoe> ldelarosa: if you set the root password you could also use "su" instead of "sudo", then "passwd username"
[19:20] <ldelarosa> Ok dasjoe it makes sense. I will try it. Thanks.
[19:27] <flounders> What kind of hardware should I get for a server that is doing DHCP, LDAP logins, NFS and DNS for approximately 300 users?
[19:34] <webfox> Hello folks!
[19:34] <webfox> I am facing this error message when I try to install mysql at ubuntu-server : https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5567d3437509981a018b
[19:35] <webfox> Could someone help me figure out how to solve it please?
[19:35] <webfox> I did already fix location issue and installed location.
[19:36] <webfox> I mean installed logger.
[19:39] <lutostag> webfox: how did you install logger? If you run $ logger 'uniq test message' # and check /var/log/syslog is it there?
[19:40] <hallyn> jdstrand: that is surprising.  I'd expect libvirt to find qemu-img.  I wonder if you remove the symlink yo uadded and do 'stop libvirt-bin; start libvirt-bin' does that solve it?
[19:42] <webfox> lutostag: I did install as apt-get isntall logger
[19:43] <lutostag> webfox: hmm, thats not showing up as a package on my system; try sudo apt-get install bsdutils # which is where the logger program comes from (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man1/logger.1.html)
[19:44] <webfox> lutostag: ok, installed and now?
[19:44] <lutostag> webfox: try a $ sudo apt-get install --fix-broken mysql-server
[19:45] <webfox> lutostag: great, I thin it is already working.
[19:45] <lutostag> webfox: good to hear, glad to help
[19:45] <webfox> lutostag: thank you a lot mister!!!! :D
[19:48] <jdstrand> hallyn: that seems to work
[19:50] <hallyn> jdstrand: so is there a clean packaging way to have qemu say "restart libvirt if installed"?
[19:50] <hallyn> jdstrand: I mean i can re-add the links, but we're aiming for being in sync with debian
[19:50] <hallyn> (for qemu, not libvirt)
[19:51] <jdstrand> hallyn: I was. I am trying it with ksm disabled
[19:52] <hallyn> cool
[19:52] <hallyn> i appreciate that
[19:52] <jdstrand> so far, it has been working
[20:19] <itadder_> for production server what version of ubuntu should we be running
[20:19] <itadder_> 14.04
[20:19] <itadder_> our developers who want ubuntu requsted 12.04
[20:19] <itadder_> old old
[20:20] <j0nr> hello?
[20:22] <Pici> hello
[20:23] <itadder_> hi
[20:24] <j0nr> What should I be Googling for when I have a single mail server setup but I want to be able to receiev emails from multiple domains? I had this set up before but now I have to redo it and I cannot remember!
[20:24] <kklimonda> itadder_: well, 12.04 is still perfectly valid, and is going to be supported for 3 more years
[20:24] <j0nr> I had it set up so that multiple emails all got delivered into my one user's Maildir
[20:25] <fridaynext> j0nr: after about a year of dealing with my postfix/dovecot/spamassassin setup for all my domains, I've finally given it all up for Google Apps.
[20:25] <fridaynext> and I couldn't be happier. :D
[20:26] <j0nr> fridaynext: funny you should mention that....I have been toying with the idea myself.
[20:26] <fridaynext> j0nr: omg - don't even think about it any more - just do it!
[20:26] <fridaynext> aliases, no smtp to deal with, folders/drafts/etc all just work.
[20:26] <j0nr> Can I point multiple domains to a single google apps?
[20:27] <j0nr> I currently (well before yesterday) had me@domain1.com maillist@domain1.com sales@domain1.com
[20:27] <j0nr> basically, I could add any alias I want
[20:28] <j0nr> also I could direct me@anotherdomain.com to the same inbox
[20:28] <fridaynext> i know you can add any alias within the same domain, b/c the mx records only work for one domain
[20:28] <j0nr> hmmmm....seems like admiting defeat!
[20:28] <fridaynext> oh yeah, you can add a domain alias. nice.
[20:28] <fridaynext> https://support.google.com/a/answer/53295?hl=en
[20:28] <fridaynext> that saves me $5 a month!
[20:28] <j0nr> anyway....I have my 'basic' mail server working....just need to get back to how I had it set up for the multiple domains.
[20:29] <j0nr> virtual I think
[20:30] <j0nr> hmm, that's REALLY tempting
[21:25] <rostam> HI
[21:29] <rostam> HI I am using ubuntu 14.04. My server has two network interfaces. eth0 and eth1. I am facing something very strange and I have narrow down it whenever update-initramfs is called, the order of network interfaces changes on the next reboot. By that I mean the eth0 bind to hardware interface eth1 used to bind and vise versa.
[21:29] <sarnold> rostam: see /etc/udev/somethingorother/70-persistent-net-something
[21:31] <rostam> sarnold,  yes that is another strange thing, It never gets created on my system ???
[21:31] <rostam> sarnold, I have removed biosdevname package
[21:32] <rostam> sarnold, and I have set if.devname=1 in /etc/default/grub
[21:33] <rostam> sarnold,  I removed biosdevname because the network  interfaces used to come up as em1 and p6xx  and I did not need them that way.
[21:34] <sarnold> rostam: yeah, I don't blame you for wanting eth0 and eth1, but the 70-persistent-net-whatever file can give them whateve rnames you want
[21:36] <rostam> sarnold, but it down not gets created in my system should I create it manually ?? thx
[21:42] <sarnold> rostam: yeah it should work fine if you create it manually
[21:42] <sarnold> rostam: here's my eth0 line: SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="3c:97:0e:3d:78:55", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
[21:45] <TJ-> rostam: is there "net.ifnames=1" on the kernel command line ("cat /proc/cmdline") ?
[21:48] <rostam> TJ- I put place that in my /etc/default/grub  kernel command line
[21:49] <rostam> TJ- I will reboot see the cat /proc/cmdline in a sec
[21:51] <rostam> TJ-, yes I see that: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=a8da1c5e-ea4c-4d24-ac3e-b08e99e2ab1f ro net.ifnames=1 biosdevname=0 nomodeset
[21:52] <TJ-> rostam: That prevents the persistent-net-names generator from working
[21:52] <TJ-> $ grep ifnames /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules
[21:52] <TJ-> IMPORT{cmdline}="net.ifnames"
[21:52] <TJ-> ENV{net.ifnames}=="1",                  GOTO="persistent_net_generator_end"
[21:53] <rostam> TJ-  okay thank you I will remove it and reboot see what happens.
[21:58] <rostam> TJ-, I remove that but still the persistent file is not created .
[22:01] <TJ-> rostam: You mean there is no "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules ?
[22:07] <rostam> TJ-, yes that file does not created after I removed the if.devname=1.
[22:08] <TJ-> rostam: So something else in "/lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules" causes the generator not to run. Read the rules, see if you can see what is doing it based on your knowledge of that system.
[22:08] <TJ-> rostam: Is it a virtual machine? these rules generally only trigger on real physical interfaces
[22:09] <rostam> TJ- no it is not virtual machine
[22:10] <rostam> TJ-, I will read the file as you suggested. Thank you.
[22:10] <TJ-> rostam: OK, well look at all the rules in that file that cause it to skip to the end; it sounds like one of those is triggering
[22:10] <rostam> TJ- will do thanks again.
