[00:01] <lvmer> so which "local_automated" backup method do you like the best
[00:02] <bekks> Doesnt matter what I like, only matters what fits your requirements.
[00:04] <acmehandle> Stupid question, what is TUN/TAP and if my vps offers it should I enable it?
[00:04] <ikonia> it's for virtual networking
[00:04] <ikonia> do you need that ?
[00:04] <ikonia> and what do you mean enable it ?
[00:05] <acmehandle> The vps I'm on, they offer TUn/TAP to be enabled in the control panel.
[00:05] <acmehandle> As far as whether I need virtual networking, I dont know.  Will it make my connection more secure?
[00:05] <acmehandle> Rather, my network connection to my vps secure
[00:05] <ikonia> control pannel ???
[00:06] <ikonia> that seems really odd
[00:06] <ikonia> acmehandle: don't use it
[00:06] <acmehandle> Right, the VPS I'm on.
[00:06] <acmehandle> No?
[00:06] <ikonia> if you don't know what it is, you don't need it
[00:16] <acmehandle> ikonia: That is a ridiculoulsy unsatisfactory answer.
[00:17] <ikonia> acmehandle: in what way ?
[00:18] <lvmer> Allow me to mediate, he probably is saying that because your answer does not contain any new information.  And acme, ikonia is saying no new information because he doesn't want to be your google buddy.
[00:18] <lvmer> everybody wins. yeah :)
[00:18] <ikonia> not really
[00:18] <acmehandle> Thats fine.  I'll bow out and accept the answer as it is.
[00:18] <ikonia> I'm saying if you don't have a need for virtual networking and don't really know what tun/tap is, don't need it
[00:19] <ikonia> don't enable it
[00:19] <ikonia> why enable something you don't need, nor do you understand
[00:19] <acmehandle> Sorry, I binged on security tls/ssl videos and the nsa that I'm a little bent out of shape on how they transgress privacy today
[00:19] <ikonia> I'm more concerned about how a control pannel can enable/disable them, that sounds like a terrible
[00:19] <ikonia> terrible coniguration
[00:20] <ikonia> acmehandle: and yet you let a web server handle your config
[00:20] <acmehandle> Its the interface for tun/tap only.  But I havent enabled it.  But yes.
[00:20] <acmehandle> Its a fools errand at the end of the day anyway
[00:20] <ikonia> ?
[00:21] <acmehandle> Meaning, if the nsa has access to most security keys in the first place it doesnt even matter anyway.
[00:21] <ikonia> please, not more security crap
[00:22] <ikonia> half the people making these youtube videos and articles have no idea what they are saying and are parroting other less informed people
[00:22] <ikonia> just apply logic and your machines will be fine as will your privacy
[00:23] <acmehandle> There was a specific video that was made at a security conference, and another was by glen greenwald
[00:23] <ikonia> not really interested
[00:23] <ikonia> up to you what you believe
[00:23] <acmehandle> Logic and reality have nothing to do with one another.
[00:24] <acmehandle> Anyway, I'm bowing out like I said before.
[01:57] <acmehandle> Is there a benefit to using sudo su versus just plain su?
[02:08] <ScottK> acmehandle: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[04:29] <blackyboy> Hi anyone there to help me to solve my unbound server issue ? I have setup a caching DNS resolver using unbound, In client machine i have added mu unbount server IP as DNS server now while i accessing some website from client side i can't get any web pages..
[04:32] <Patrickdk> well, atleast post your unbound config file
[04:44] <blackyboy> Patrickdk: ok one sec sir
[04:47] <blackyboy> Patrickdk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9406618/
[04:47] <blackyboy> My Cache DNS server IP was 192.168.0.50
[04:48] <munsterman> somehow i have 2 ip's with one NIC. I have done nothing to set up 2 ip's. my interfaces file is set up for static. where is this second ip coming from? any google search comes up with how to get 2 ip's going, and none of my fikes look that way. im so lost. and green, be gentle. any help?
[04:48] <Patrickdk> your access-control lines are screwed
[04:49] <Patrickdk> oh, not really, that was allow all, I misread
[04:49] <blackyboy> Patrickdk: sir just now i have flushed the IPtables and working :D
[04:49] <Patrickdk> ah :)
[04:50] <blackyboy> Appreciate for your time
[04:50] <Patrickdk> you might want to change your allow to allow_snoop though
[04:50] <blackyboy> Thank you
[04:50] <Patrickdk> snoop makes things like *dig* work :)
[04:50] <blackyboy> oh ok let me look at it thank you
[04:50] <blackyboy> Cool
[08:56] <lordievader> Good morning.
[20:26] <lnxmen> I tried to create Slave MySQL database.
[20:26] <lnxmen> I have PHPFox od productive server and other VPS
[20:26] <lnxmen> I followed this tutorial: http://unity.moxi9.com/kb/article/436/how-to-get-mysql-replication-up-and-running
[20:26] <lnxmen> But step 5 fails.
[20:26] <lnxmen> There is no database and records in slave database.
[20:27] <lnxmen> Could anyone help?
[20:29] <RoyK> lnxmen: perhaps someone in #mysql?
[20:29] <lnxmen> Okay.
[20:30] <lnxmen> Sorry, for asking here.
[20:30] <RoyK> lnxmen: no worries - just think they may know more about it there
[20:31] <lnxmen> RoyK: hmm, I added line `mysqld: masterIP` to /etc/hosts.allow
[20:31] <lnxmen> And /etc/init.d/networking restart
[20:32] <lnxmen> gives me
[20:32] <lnxmen> stop: Job failed while stopping
[20:32] <lnxmen> start: Job is already running: networking
[21:07] <acmehandle> If I completely uninstall sudo off my server will there be any adverse affects?
[21:08] <acmehandle> I dont want sudo on my machine.
[21:12] <bekks> acmehandle: Without sudo, you will be unable to gain root privileges.
[21:13] <ScottK> Unless you setup the root account first.
[21:14] <acmehandle> Yes, I have a root account set up already.  So thats not a problem.  So if I uninstall sudo entirely there shouldnt be any adverse affects to the direct functionality of the machine.
[21:14] <acmehandle> its not like the network card is going to bust a transistor or something.
[21:15] <ScottK> Shouldn't.
[23:54] <acmehandle> what is the difference between python3 and python3m
