[08:08] <lordievader> Good morning.
[12:10] <kevindf> Is there any good monitoring software with web interface that's free for home users to monitor statistics of like 2 servers?
[12:10] <Malinux> munin perhaps?
[12:13] <kevindf> Will take a look at that, thanks
[12:17] <pmatulis> morning
[15:31] <designbybeck_> I'm trying to learn as I go here. What is the best way to new users and make the sudoers? 'adduser' seems better than 'useradd'
[15:32] <lordievader> designbybeck_: One is a frontend for the other, see the manpages.
[15:32] <lordievader> And adding them to the sudo group gives them sudo rights.
[15:32] <designbybeck_> hmmm
[15:35] <pmatulis> designbybeck_: adduser unless you have special requirements
[15:36] <designbybeck_> pmatulis, was trying this: http://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-add-a-user-and-grant-root-privileges-on-ubuntu-14-04/
[15:36] <pmatulis> designbybeck_: nah
[15:36] <designbybeck_> or might this be better pmatulis http://askubuntu.com/questions/7477/how-can-i-add-a-new-user-as-sudoer-using-the-command-line
[15:37] <pmatulis> 'sudo adduser john && sudo adduser john sudo'
[15:37] <designbybeck_> ok thank you pmatulis I'll try that
[16:42] <Delta-User> Anyone here can help me out setting up ftp to virtual hosts in apache?
[16:52] <Lartza> I assume there is no StartSSL alternative for truly free SSL certificates?
[16:52] <sanderp> I'm currently experiencing odd behaviour with my Avahi installation. Needs manual restart about every few hours or so. Anyone who knows what's up?
[19:13] <whatupx> Lartza, not yet.  letsencrypt.org will be starting next year though
[19:52] <alan_> Hello. I'm new to Ubuntu. During setup of Ubuntu Server, I joined a wireless network on wlan0. Upon reboot, there are no network devices in `ifconfig`. Did I miss something in the setup process to apply the WiFi settings to the system? Thank you.
[21:53] <TheBurgerKing> quick question…does Screen work on the server version of Ubuntu?  i’d like to have multiple terminal windows open at once
[21:54] <qman> Yes
[21:57] <TheBurgerKing> excellent, thank you
[22:34] <Alina-malina> when i access my domain name without www i get into var/www folder, please help me guys
[22:46] <Patrickdk> Alina-malina, heh? you don't even get a login prompt?
[22:46] <Patrickdk> how are you accessing it? ssh?
[22:47] <Alina-malina> www.example.com
[22:47] <Patrickdk> what is that?
[22:47] <Patrickdk> that is a hostname
[22:47] <Patrickdk> not an *access* method
[22:47] <Alina-malina> Patrickdk, https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts       so now when i access the example.com i get into /var/www/ folder  and when i access www.example.com i get into /var/www/example.com/public_html folder :-/ please help me, i really dont understand what is going on
[22:48] <soren> Alina-malina: You should share your VirtualHost config.
[22:48] <Alina-malina> shat you mean?
[22:48] <Alina-malina> soren, this is my virtualhost http://pastebin.com/ih7L2jsE
[22:48] <soren> Alina-malina: But even without seeing it, I'm pretty sure we'll see that there's not servername or serveralias that matches your example.com.
[22:49] <Alina-malina> both are in there
[22:49] <Patrickdk> and you restarted apache?
[22:49] <Alina-malina> yes tons of times
[22:49] <Alina-malina> :-/
[22:49] <Patrickdk> and they dont exist anywhere else?
[22:49] <bekks> "Servername example.com" is invalid, anyways.
[22:50]  * Patrickdk does not, using example.com in your pastebin can cause invalid diagnostics
[22:50] <soren> sudo apache2ctl -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS
[22:50] <soren> Please provide the output of that command.
[22:50] <sarnold> is there anything in your logs?
[22:52] <Alina-malina> http://pastebin.com/iTbRH6yb
[22:53] <soren> I'm going to go ahead and guess that it doesn't actually say example.com and that you're actually redacting what we're seeing... and then I'm not going to help you. Because even though I don't know who owns example.com, I'm going to guess it's not you.
[22:53] <Alina-malina> yes
[22:53] <soren> Stop fixing the output and provide it as is.
[22:53] <soren> Or fix it yourself.
[22:53]  * soren wanders off
[22:53] <Alina-malina> i dont want to paste it publicly
[22:54] <soren> Then good luck getting help.
[22:54] <Patrickdk> then your unlikely to get a *public* answer/help
[22:54] <soren> If you change the output people need to help you out, they can't help you.
[22:54] <soren> And won't.
[22:54] <soren> So toodles.
[22:58] <Alina-malina> i am sorry i cant
[22:58] <Patrickdk> I sure hope you didn't register that domain from somewhere
[22:58] <Patrickdk> as domains are public too
[23:00] <bekks> Alina-malina: you cant tell us a public domain name? :)
[23:01] <WhiteIntel> Hello can someony tell a remote desktop solution that is working out of the box with user session handling, good performance, easy to install?
[23:04] <Patrickdk> servers don't have desktops
[23:04] <WhiteIntel> really, and if I have one installed on mine?
[23:15] <NegativeFlare> WhiteIntel: if you've got one installed on yours, then its not a "server" anymore.
[23:16] <WhiteIntel> sorry, but thats not true...
[23:16] <WhiteIntel> Many servers have grafical environments installed and they are also working as a server.
[23:19] <Patrickdk> dunno, my windows servers don't even have graphical enviroments installed anymore
[23:19] <Patrickdk> but that hardly matters
[23:20] <Patrickdk> as those packages aren't part of the ubuntu-server, but part of ubuntu-desktop
[23:20] <WhiteIntel> you don´t have to install one, but some services need one, I need also one.
[23:21] <Patrickdk> yes, but your asking the wrong people
[23:21] <Patrickdk> your asking people that don't use gui, to recommend to you a gui
[23:21] <NegativeFlare> WhiteIntel: hmph, its a matter of opinion. And in my IT department, if you've got a GUI installed. Its not a server.
[23:23] <WhiteIntel> That might be in your department but a server is not defined if it has a GUI or not
[23:25] <qman> GUIs are for desktops
[23:26] <qman> That said, if you're looking to set up a terminal server, that's what LTSP is for
[23:27] <RoyK> freenx might be worth a peek
[23:28] <WhiteIntel> Sorry, but I will quit the discussion if a server is no so server with a gui, that was not my question...
[23:28] <WhiteIntel> I tried the maintanced version of freenx x2go, but x2go is not working with gnome3 in ubuntu 14.04 :\
[23:33] <RoyK> WhiteIntel: most of us use GUIs for desktop/laptop stuff and ssh connections to servers
[23:33] <RoyK> WinstonSmith: and then perhaps remote X if we want to run something graphical from the server
[23:34] <WhiteIntel> Most of my servers either, but I have some services that needs a gui.
[23:34] <WhiteIntel> Is there a user session handling like in rdp?
[23:37] <NegativeFlare> If you're looking for "remote administration" for GUI, I'd go with VNC
[23:38] <sarnold> ssh -X X11 forwarding?
