xpistosI have a USB drive with christmas movies that I have attached to a server  and I would like to share it to  my laptop that has Plex Medie server attached on it.02:37
xpistosI have not been able to set it up like I normally do with my internal drives.02:38

tkeith_What's the best way to stop all services except the minimum for networking & remote SSH?19:32
bekkstkeith_: By stopping them 1 by 1, after ensuring you dont need them.19:35
tkeith_bekks: what about rebooting into single user mode? I found some online discussions that suggested that.19:48
bekksHow would that help you?19:49
bekksSingle user mode does not start networking nor ssh.19:49
tkeith_bekks: It looks like I could use an upstart override file to make networking & SSH start in single user mode19:51
bekksThats more like a dirty hack than a sane approach.19:51
bekksInvestigate all services being started, and stop them if you dont need them.19:52
tkeith_bekks: It seems like never starting the services in the first place is cleaner than hoping they all stop successfully and don't leave anything running. I thought the purpose of single user mode was for things like this?19:53
bekksNo.19:53
bekksThe purpose of the single user mode was to start a system with the least number of required services for being able to carry out operations that require the lowest number of services, etc. being started.19:54
bekksThe intention of the single user mode never was "hack me because I dont want to configure my system properly"19:55
tkeith_How can I be sure that after stopping all services using "service stop" they don't leave any running processes?19:56
bekksBY looking at the process list.19:57
tkeith_bekks: How can I programmatically tell if any of the running processes are left over from the services?19:58
bekksBY looking at the process list.19:58
bekksYou dont need to do that programmatically, you need to configure the service once.19:58
tkeith_bekks: I like the single user approach because, while it may be hacky, it does guarantee that it's in the state I want19:58
tkeith_bekks: I need to be able to get servers into this state programmatically, not manually19:59
bekksIt does not guarantuee anything.19:59
bekksIf you need to programmatically change services, you should not hack the single user mode, but you should learn to configure services properly.20:00
tkeith_bekks: How should I go about "learning to configure services properly"?20:02
bekkstkeith_: You could start here: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/20:03
tkeith_bekks: Are you really suggesting that I do anything other than "stop the services and hope all is well"?20:03
bekkstkeith_: Yes.20:04
tkeith_bekks: What are you suggesting?20:04
bekksI told you :)20:04
bekksStart getting familiar with what you are doing there instead of hacking and hoping.20:05
tkeith_bekks: No, you're just pointing me at the upstart guide, which tells me how to configure individual services, which is not part of what I'm trying to accomplish20:05
bekksI take that as "learning on how to do things properly is not what I'm trying to accomplish".20:06
tkeith_bekks: What are you suggesting I do after reading the upstart guide other than configuring individual services differently?20:06
bekksI told you, the answer will not change.20:07
tkeith_bekks: You didn't answer.20:07
bekksI did. Read again.20:07
bekksIf you dont like the answer, I cant do a thing about it.20:08
oldaphlphello, i'm struggling aginst what it seemed an easy operation in openldap, i got it mostly working aparently, but i'm stucked now from quite a few hours20:11
oldaphlpwhat i'm trying to do is to use the meta backend to show several remote containers (all from the same remote server) as one local container20:12
oldaphlpiow, the childs of the remote containers should look as if they are all in one container in the local server DIT20:13
oldaphlpwith a single uri it works, even with auth forwarding. but when adding more uris, i get "operations error" and no amount of debugging has given me more about it20:15

igoryonyawhen I try to CONNECT on squid, I get the following error: URL http://94.100.180.228:2042/; The administrator may not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers. This only happens, when trying to CONNECT to ip addresses, when using domains, it works fine.22:33
ReScOwhat do i need to be able to send and recieve mail from my server?22:45
bekksYou need to setup a mail server daemon, like postfix.22:45
bekksReScO: Like this, e.g.: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix22:46
ReScOso if i install the right software, people can send mail to me@domain.com?22:46
bekksReScO: you need to install and - very important - configure the "right" software.22:47
ReScOi understand, but i'm more worried about the whole sending/recieving mail part22:47
ReScOdo i need to pay for extra services or?22:47
bekksThe whole sending/receiving mail part is done by configuring your mail server. Where is your server located?22:48
ReScOit's a VPS somewhere in Amsterdam22:48
ReScOno mail server software on it yet22:49
ReScOi have a external IP22:49
bekksThen you have to ask your hoster wether they charge by traffic, e.g.,22:49
ReScOok, so if i configure everything, how does mailing to me@domain.com end up at my server?22:50
ReScOdoes it announce itself to other smtp servers?22:50
maswanThat's what DNS is for22:50
ReScOso configure it properly and i can recieve mail for my domain, no extra services required?22:51
maswanother smtp servers look up the domain's MX records and use those IPs22:51
