brobostigonmorning boys and girls.07:50
brobostigonanyone use fb with bitlbee who can confirm, fb has stopped working, please.07:50
diddledanbrobostigon: fb's xmpp interface is defunct07:51
brobostigondiddledan: i know, that doesnt stop me from using it.07:51
brobostigonor trying to.07:51
diddledanhttps://developers.facebook.com/docs/chat07:51
diddledanspecifically: "After April 30th, 2015 apps will no longer be able to access the service or API. This includes both access to chat.facebook.com and the xmpp_login permission."07:51
brobostigoni know, but it has been working the last few weeks, and has stopped working at some point overnight.07:51
MartijnVdSthey probably turned off the servers/access to them?07:53
brobostigonthats what i was guessing as well, but i just needed confirmation form someone else.07:54
diddledanit's very-close to 4-weeks since april 30th so I'm guessing they might have given a 4week grace period07:54
diddledanthe point remains their documentation says the servers are turned-off on april 30th so expecting it to work seems a bit.. nieve?07:55
brobostigoni was expecting it to shutdown, i was just using it for my convienence as long as i could.07:56
ali1234brobostigon: still appears to be working with pidgin08:10
brobostigonali1234: ok, let me try pidgin.08:11
JamesTaitGood morning all; happy Senior Health & Fitness Day! 😃08:35
popeyalright grandad08:35
JamesTaitI feel like it this morning. 😝08:36
davmor2popey: you can talk you are older than me or JamesTait :P admittedly I am the Grandad08:41
bigcalmGood morning peeps :)08:46
popeyblimey, you're early08:46
bigcalmintrbiz: the switch only goes to L2 and I can see no routing settings. Bum. At least we can have vlans and separate company from rented desks08:47
bigcalmpopey: I don't know what's wrong with me. I might have to go back into hiding08:47
intrbizbigcalm: I expected that would be the case08:47

MooDoohello all10:12
zmoylan-pio/10:12
bigcalmintrbiz: I just found a wee Netgear ProSafe VPN Firewall FVS114. Will be able to do IPsec in a box without messing with strongwall10:26
intrbizbigcalm: fair enough10:27
bigcalmHope I can still do openvpn from a server within the network10:29
intrbizsure, buy you'll need something to cope with all the routing10:30
intrbizbut*10:30
bigcalmI'm starting to wonder if the free switch was worth having10:35
intrbizhaha10:37
bigcalmWhile we can do vlans on the switch, I don't see a way of saying what subnets each vlan is to use10:39
diploAnyone recommend a place to get laptop replacement screens ?10:41
diploFound a few, just wondering if anyone has used anywhere in particular :)10:42
bigcalmAh, I think I get it. I can create 2 vlans and assign ports to them. Plug the switch into the firewall twice - assigning those ports to the specific vlans as well. Then on the firewall brick, assign subnets to the ports10:42
bigcalmI should have ordered 2 colours of 50cm patch leads :|10:42
bigcalmSmall bits of electrical tape will have to do10:43
bigcalmHandy there being a Maplin shop in town10:44
bigcalmdiplo: each time I've had a bad screen, it's been cheaper to buy a new laptop10:44
diplo£40 for replacement10:44
diploAlso not my laptop, and they don't have much cash, single mum :)10:45
diploAnd I certainly can't afford one :D10:45
zmoylan-piplug in to external screen?10:46
diploNot portable then, shes doing a OU course and using kids laptop currently10:46
bigcalmintrbiz: we've been given permission to use a jump host for SSH. Saves me maintaining the network set-up here11:19
bigcalmThat said, I'm still going to set-up the 2 vlans and subnets11:25
bigcalmI should learn this stuff11:25
intrbizbigcalm: I'll explain this evening (assuming your still coming along).  But VLANs are at layer 2 and add a tag on the front of an ethernet frame, eseentially 2 vlans gives you 2 switches11:32

bigcalmAww12:02
moreatiI'm half expecting Copresence - the API that powers Tone - to be properly announced/revealed at Google IO tomorrow12:05
bigcalmI assume that there have been others trying to work it out as well as you12:06

diddledanI'm getting fancy with go14:06
diddledanwe have a client who has insisted on a specific provider for their sites. this provider insists that we only access the dev and live environments (via access controls they implemented) using sftp. sftp is inherently unscriptable. so I'm writing my own client using go14:08
zmoylan-piis that not reinventing the wheel a little?  has noone done that already?14:12
MartijnVdSdiddledan: sftp as in ye olde ftp + some SSL, or sftp as in ssh's ftp-a-like14:17
MartijnVdSdiddledan: because the ssh one is very scriptable from Perl :)14:17
diddledanMartijnVdS: sftp as in ftp over ssh14:17
diploIf you like perl :)14:17
diddledanand perl >.<14:17
MartijnVdSparamiko can probably do it in python too if you must14:17
diddledanI don't like perl14:17
diddledanwhat's wrong with go?14:17
MartijnVdShttp://paramiko-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api/sftp.html14:17
MartijnVdSdiddledan: it came out after the projects I'm working on started.. and a rewrite is too expensive ;)14:18
diploI've used it with python14:18
diddledanaah14:18
diddledanwell yeah I'm doing it go so nyer!14:18
diddledan:-p14:18
diploNever touched it myself, keep meaning to take a look14:19
diddledanthis is my first attempt at writing anything meaningful in go14:19
diddledanit's quite nice14:19

Azelphurquestion folks, is it easy to make a shell account that can only run a whitelist of commands?15:45
intrbizAzelphur: usually seems to be don't by writing a custom shell, eg: git shell, etc15:47
Azelphuryou mean done?15:48
intrbizsorry, yes15:48
intrbizs/don't/done/15:48
Azelphuryea, that's what I was thinking, guess I'll do that15:48
intrbizAzelphur: what are you trying to do?15:48
Azelphurintrbiz: I'm using attic for backups, it'd be nice to have an account on the backup machine that is only allowed to create and prune backups. Nothing else.15:49
intrbizAzelphur: right, simple perl script should do the job then15:50
Azelphuryea, makes sense :)15:51
intrbizAzelphur: you can also define specific commands which can be executed with SSH keys, and then ban a full shell15:51
Azelphuryea15:52
bigcalmIs there a nice tool that will generate relationship diagrams for an existing MySQL database?16:13
MartijnVdSpostgresql has postgresql-autodoc16:13
MartijnVdSmaybe mysql-autodoc exists?16:13
intrbizbigcalm: can't mysql workbench do that?16:41
bigcalmYes, and managed it.16:42

daftykins:o21:04
diddledanmy code occupies, including whitespace, about 250 lines - obviously the libraries I'm calling-on take a bit more than that tho21:06
