[05:31] <FilthyMacNasty> did I get banned from here or something?
[05:32] <FilthyMacNasty> 3 disconnects before it let me in
[05:45] <Tm_T> FilthyMacNasty: no you were not, it would say clearly "cannot join channel, you're banned" or something similar in case of ban
[05:45] <FilthyMacNasty> ok cool, didnt want to upset anyone ever
[08:06] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:16] <Farva> On our one server machine, we are running a few different IPs, on one IP, everyone connects just fine (iftop example-http://gyazo.com/2e962762f24c46a4b533a953aed9bc95), on the other, people are showing one bar of connection and are lagging heavily. (same person on the other IP: http://gyazo.com/3837b0e2aec3339ca045078ca9765dd8)  This is a E3 gaming server. How do I trouble shoot this?
[10:29] <WhiteIntel> hello I have a problem with my ubuntu server client: when I try to connect I get this error: RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
[10:29] <WhiteIntel> Mon Oct 27 20:29:06 2014 ERROR: Linux route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 2
[10:29] <WhiteIntel> what is wrong here?
[10:32] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: You don't have a connection?
[10:33] <lordievader> A network connection that is.
[10:33] <WhiteIntel> my server has a network connection and internet, thats the strange thing :\
[10:35] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: The client throws the error?
[10:36] <WhiteIntel> yes thats from the client log
[10:36] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: So the client has no network connection.
[10:37] <WhiteIntel> the client has network connection, I´m connected over ssh to the client and I can ping google from the client
[10:38] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: On the client what is the output of "ip route"?
[10:38] <lordievader> !paste | WinstonSmith
[10:39] <WhiteIntel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8717757/
[10:39] <WhiteIntel> this is the output
[10:40] <lordievader> Seems okay, strange interface but whatever. What ip are you trying to reach?
[10:40] <WhiteIntel> a public ip of my VPN server
[10:41] <WhiteIntel> under my windows client (that is in the same network as the ubuntu one) I can connect without any problems
[10:41] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Just to be sure, what is the output of "ip a s"?
[10:45] <WhiteIntel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8717792/
[10:48] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Hmm, yes that should work.
[10:49] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: You mentioned vpn does this error happen after you enable the vpn?
[10:49] <WhiteIntel> yes after the command "openvpn --config vpn.ovpn"
[10:51] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Ah, take a look at how it modifies your routes. It is probably the culprit.
[10:51] <WhiteIntel> do mean in the server config?
[10:53] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: What openvpn does is modify routes in order to throw (all) traffic over the vpn tunnel. Seems like this is misconfigured.
[10:55] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: the server is running in tap mode, as I said on a windows client this works very well and on the server I had this additional configs http://paste.ubuntu.com/8717920/
[10:58] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Run the openvpn on the client, and get the output of "ip route" and "ip a s" again.
[11:02] <WhiteIntel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8717957/
[11:06] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: You don't have a default gateway anymore.
[11:06] <WhiteIntel> yea I saw that, but I don´t know why^^
[11:07] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Because openvpn messes up your routes. Check its config.
[11:08] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: my client config is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8718022/
[11:09] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: I've never setup an openvpn vpn, so I do not know what can be wrong with the config.
[11:53] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: what else could be the problem?
[11:53] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: What do you mean?
[11:54] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: The reason why I can´t connect :\
[11:54] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: I've already told you, openvpn breaks your routes.
[11:55] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: but why only under ubuntu? with my other clients all is working well
[11:56] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Do the other clients run under the exact same conditions?
[11:58] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: yes the run under the same conditions
[11:58] <lordievader> WhiteIntel: Anyhow the proof lies right infront of your eyes, whether you choose to accept it or not,
[12:05] <WhiteIntel> lordievader: thx
[12:14] <elias_> Hey
[12:15] <lordievader> o/
[12:16] <elias_> i have nginx 1.4.6 (ubuntu) and latest version is 1.7.6 is that secure and include all latest patchs
[12:16] <elias_> or to be more secure its better to install latest version from source code ?
[12:18] <lordievader> !info nginx utopic
[12:18] <elias_> lordievader, what do you mean by that :-/ ?
[12:19] <lordievader> Nothing was just wondering what version Utopic has.
[12:19] <elias_> nginx -v tells me that i have 1.4.5
[12:20] <lordievader> !info nginx trusty
[12:21] <elias_> does it include all patchs ?
[12:21] <lordievader> elias_: 1.4.6 is available for Trusty ;)
[12:21] <lordievader> elias_: No idea, read the changelogs.
[14:45] <sander^work> What's wrong when I get: "no operating system found" on boot?
[14:47] <jrwren_> sander^work: empty MBR
[14:53] <raid-fu>  all, i have a raid problem. it shows as "inactive" and if i try enabling it. it says assembled from 5 drives and 1 rebuilding - not enough to start the array   / i'm confused. how is it rebuilding but not enough to start ?
[15:20] <alexgl> in ubuntu server 14.04 I have gadmin-samba setup but I cannot get into it from another linux nor windows 7. it's a virtual machine that has got ip from dhcp. Is there something from the path that I'm missing, i'm doing \\server-ip\share
[15:25] <alexgl> anyone using samba to create a share for windows 7 or clonezilla fileshare?
[15:27] <sudormrf> !ping
[16:13] <lumia900> i cant able to open my samba share folder from windows..
[16:13] <lumia900> since i have configured as guest ok = yes
[16:51] <caliculk> Hello, I have a bit of a weird issue. Usually, after about 11 days or so, my server stops responding to network connections, yet it is still running. I can't really figure out why. I don't see anything abnormal in the kernel.log, dmesg.log, or syslog files. I was wondering what other steps I could take to diagnose the issue if it was software. My only ability is to connecto remotely to diagnose it, so I am really hoping it is a software
[16:51] <caliculk> issue and not a hardware one.
[16:59] <genii> caliculk: Perhaps check with lshw -C network what make and model the NICs are and what driver is claiming them, and then look up the driver to see if there's some known issue like this and a fix
[17:00] <caliculk> genii, thank you, will do right now. Is there anything that I could run continuously to double check if the nic is up or responding to connectivity, and if it fails, run specific commands that output to a file as well?
[17:03] <caliculk> Though from the first google search, there is a report of the driver/devices flat out not working, but that was from ~March's mailing list, and a September forum post. I would assume the latest kernel would have the most up to date driver as well, would it not? If not, I will just go download.
[17:04] <genii> caliculk: Conceivably maybe a shell script to see if it can ping an external box and if not then maybe to dump last 25-50 lines of dmesg and modprobe -r driver/modprobe driver, call it as a cron job on some reasonable schedule
[17:04] <genii> lunch, sort of afk gorging :)
[17:04] <caliculk> No worries, thank you for your help. :) Its frustrating enough for me being on a 7 hour time difference from the box, and when it goes down, I have to wait for someone to wake up to reset it.
[17:05] <caliculk> At least now I am getting a little help. :P
[17:06] <genii> caliculk: I know that there are some Broadcom NIC with an issue like this but don't recall the model number offhand
[17:06] <caliculk> This is unfortunately an Intel NIC, e1000e driver. So completely different manufacturer.
[17:22] <genii> caliculk: I recall there was some issue with that one. I'd have to look back into it, but something like they modified the e100 driver but doesn't always work properly
[17:29] <genii> caliculk: According to Intel at http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-032514.htm "The e1000e driver supports PCI Express* Gigabit Network Connections except the 82575, 82576, 82580, and I350."  ... is one of these?
[17:30] <caliculk> I have an 82574L
[17:30] <caliculk> So, no.
[17:35] <genii> caliculk: Some of the things you might want to do in the cronjob besides dump the end of dmesg is check the current adapter settings with ethtool, , maybe also some traffic with wireshark, maybe tcpdump
[17:37] <genii> ethtool results when it goes down can be compared to what it reports when working normally, traffic analysis might show what it's trying to do and what the responses/lack of response is
[18:43] <RoyK> caliculk: I guess it might work if you add its PCI ID to the driver. IIRC it should be possible to do that dynamically without recompiling the driver, but I don't remember how
[18:45] <caliculk> RoyK, It is working right now, I am using a bouncer to talk from that box. It just coincidentally fails after a random number of days (usually longer than 8).
[18:46] <dasjoe> Are you sure it's network-related?
[18:46] <RoyK> caliculk: how does it fail?
[18:47] <caliculk> I don't know, I am not able to really diagnose it. But, from what I can tell, the connection just dies with the software programs still running in the background that would use the network connection. For instance, two days ago, I got an e-mail from logwatch, shortly after (maybe 10 to 20 minutes) I went to go login to the machine through SSH, and it wasn't responding. Tried encrypted VNC, znc, ping, etc. Everything failed.
[18:48] <caliculk> It has happened on more than one occasion.
[22:35] <Finetundra_> anyone have any tips for running a server?
[22:38] <bekks> ??
