Kilosmorning inetpro  Squirm  nuvolari  and others05:19
Squirmmorning05:45
ThatGraemeGuymorning peeps05:58
Kiloshi ThatGraemeGuy  05:58
Kiloshi Cantide  06:23
Cantidehello :)06:23
KilosThatGraemeGuy  with a basic package from you guys and domain name etc. can one then link if to a home server with lots of space06:58
ThatGraemeGuynot sure what you mean06:59
Kilosya i need to think it out06:59
Kiloslets say we get a basic server from you06:59
Kilosthen06:59
Kilosum07:00
Kiloscan we move some of whatever is on the site to a local server and keep the basic package for emails etc07:01
ThatGraemeGuyif you have a local server why not just use that07:02
ThatGraemeGuystill not really understanding what you are talking about07:03
Kiloswell we needed domain name so you supplied that07:03
Kilosbut local servers depend on dicey 3g internet and power cuts07:04
SquirmKilos: a domain will cost you R75 a year07:04
Kilosso emails and important stuff will be better with you07:04
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: sorry, still lost, i actually have no idea what you're on about07:05
ThatGraemeGuywhat is it you actually want?07:05
Kilossjoe07:05
Kilosian has domains i think with hetzner 07:05
SquirmThatGraemeGuy: does the simple plan come with a dns zone manager?07:06
SquirmThatGraemeGuy: I think Kilos wants to host a website on his local server, but host emails with Hetzner07:06
ThatGraemeGuyon a crazy expensive 3g connection?07:07
Kilosya something like that Squirm  just all the software ian uses is over 10g i think so we would rahter keep all the storage stuff on a local server07:08
Kilosi still need more info from ian methinks but we both learning as we go07:08
SquirmKilos: like ThatGraemeGuy says, it'll probably even be cheaper getting a bigger hosting package07:09
Kilosi think the website will be with hetzner07:09
Kilosfinances are tight when starting a business from scratch07:09
Kilosthats why the basic package with hetzner07:10
Squirmit depends what you want to do...07:10
Squirmand afaik, you can't run a web server behind a 3G connection, because you don't have a dedicated IP address07:11
Kiloshe wants to advertise products on a site he will build if he can find templates07:11
Kilosthen the data stuff needed for the jobs must be on a local server07:12
Kilossjoe this is hard to explain07:12
Kilosso if i run a server from here is 3g gonna mess with the ip of the server?07:14
Kilosbut with the website at hetzner07:15
Kiloshmm...07:16
Kilosok lets try this way07:16
Kilosif i install a server here can you not get into it through my 3g?07:17
ThatGraemeGuyyou probably can07:19
ThatGraemeGuybut to be honest nobody in their right mind is going to do that07:19
ThatGraemeGuydescribe to be what a client of his would be doing on their side and how you imagine the hosting side works07:20
ThatGraemeGuys/be/me07:20
Kilosok sec07:21
Kiloshis clients will mainly be peeps who want to use his company to install and maintain their clocking machines07:23
Kilosand the products such as clock cards and so on must show on the site then they email him and he arranges to go install or supply07:24
Kilosi go take sheep out quick07:25
ThatGraemeGuywhat you have described is a pretty standard web hosting scenario. i don't understand what the problem is07:26
ThatGraemeGuyyou are probably not going to get that working on a R19/month home package though, you likely need a database for that kind of thing07:27
ThatGraemeGuybut the basic business package is R99/month, which ought to be plenty for that sort of thing07:27
Kilosok ty ill hear what he says07:36
Kiloshi spekko07:42
SpekkoHello Kilos08:26
=== Kilos- is now known as Kilos

Cantideyeah~ i've heard of that14:00
Cantideit's the only way14:00
Cantidegovernment is doing nothing14:00
Kilosif you can watch youtube vids without needing to buffer then its good enough14:00
Cantideagreed14:00
Cantidesometimes i download a movie to watch14:01

charlgood evening16:00
Kiloshi charl  16:00
charlhi Kilos 16:00
charlhow are you doing16:00
charlMaaz: coffee on16:00
* Maaz starts grinding coffee16:00
Kilosok ty and you?16:01
Kilosim installing server here on spare pc but lost with all the choices of stuff to choose16:01
KilosMaaz  coffee please16:01
MaazKilos: Righto16:01
KilosMaaz  large16:01
MaazIn a beer mug just for you Kilos16:01
KilosMaaz  grandpas please16:02
MaazKilos: What?16:02
Kilosoi16:02
KilosMaaz  grandpa16:02
MaazKilos: grandpa is for headaches16:02
KilosMaaz  grandpa please16:02
MaazKilos: Excuse me?16:02
Kilosai!16:02
MaazCoffee's ready for charl and Kilos!16:04
Kiloswhat additional packages must i tick to install16:04
KilosMaaz  thanks16:05
MaazKilos: Sure16:05
charli'm good thanks16:08
charl it depends on what you want to do16:08
charlwhat are you looking to do with the server ?16:08
Kilosi have no idea16:08
Kilosmaybe use it to store stuff that can be fetched online from other pcs16:09
Kilosso will need it to have a recognisable ip or something16:09
Kilosi have the server guide but dont know what all the stuff means or does16:10
Kiloslike openssh server what is that16:11
charlopenssh server is if you want to get into the machine remotely using ssh16:11
KilosMaaz  define openssh server16:11
MaazKilos: I don't have a definition for that. Is it even a word?16:11
charlopenssh is the world standard implementation of the ssh protocol both for client and server16:11
Kilosok so that i must have16:11
charlit comes out of the openbsd crowd actually, founded by a ex-south african16:11
charlif you want a file server, probably openssh server and samba16:11
Kilosi like the ssh bit16:11
charlyou can also mount filesystems remotely over ssh using sshfs16:12
charlso actually you only need openssh server16:12
Kilosand what is dns server16:12
charlbut if you for example want to access files from other places like, i dunno, a windows machine, many android "smart" tvs, etc, you need samba16:12
charlyou probably don't need your own dns server16:12
charlunless you are an isp or something similar16:12
charldns is to resolve hostnames into ip addresses16:13
Kilosit asked me to enter a domain name16:13
charlbut you probably already have that from your isp as it is16:13
charli think the default for your own local setup is "localdomain" or something similar16:13
Kilosso i added miles.org16:13
charlor simply "local"16:13
Kiloshehe16:13
charlyou could add anything you want, just remember you can create problems if there really does exist a miles.org and it doesn't belong to you16:13
Kilosi want to access it from other pcs too16:13
charlcreate problems for you i mean, not for them16:14
charlyou will probably need to give it a static ip address on your lan16:14
charli assume you use nat routing16:14
Kilosoh ya i didnt think of that16:14
Kilosi gave it an ip16:14
Kilosi think i installed 10.10 server some years back but it didnt have all the stuff 14.04 has16:15
Kilosok what would i choose if i want to put a website on it16:16
Kilosis that right16:16
Kiloswebsite is on the web16:16
Kilossjoe16:16
charleh16:16
charlyou want to run your own web server, at home ?16:16
Kilosi want to try yes16:16
charlthat is of course completely possible, but what type of internet connection do you have? do you have static ip addresses from your isp?16:16
charlif not you will need to use dynamic dns16:16
charland if you have a nat router you will need to configure port forwarding as well16:17
charli've done it many years back when i still used to run my own stuff at home but it's what we call "ghetto hosting"16:17
Kiloshmm...16:17
charland of course you will also probably need to get a domain from somewhere16:17
charlyou can get free domains from za nic (.za.net and .za.org) but then you also need to sort out your own nameservers16:18
charlthere are some options for free nameservers like from hurricane electric16:18
charlbut it's all a LOT of work16:18
Kilossjoe16:18
Kilosim so upset , i ordered a 1TB drive and the supplier said first thing in the morning. then said their shipment of drives and other pc imports was misplaced by the couriers and theyve spent all day trying to find it16:20
Kilossigh16:20
Kilosmurphy16:20
charlbah16:23
charlok i need to be off again16:23

Joe_knockKDE is too bloated for my old workstation. Ek kan sien vir die .deb of hexchat. dit is nie in software centre. Kan jy op saterdag by software freedom day kom?20:02
Kilosand you can configure konversation to look like hexchat and xchat'20:02
Kiloswatter release het jy daar?20:02
Kilosthe kde gui is a bit heavy ya20:03
Kilosmaar net conversation of quassel by hoort nie veel skade te doen nie20:03
