lordievaderGood morning.09:22
Gregor3000hello i need help with SSH i keep getitng the passphrase qustion: Authenticating with public key "imported-openssh-key" ; Passphrase for key "imported-openssh-key":10:12
Gregor3000once i enter it it authenticates but when i exit and try to login again it asks for password again.10:12
Gregor3000i am using putty and i imported the linux key hence the comment -  "imported-openssh-key"10:13
lordievaderGregor3000: The passphrase is whatever you set it to.10:14
Gregor3000i've entered it but when i logout and again log back in i again get the prompt. i dont' want the server to asks for passphrase every time10:16
Gregor3000PasswordAuthentication no10:16
Gregor3000ah it means i need to create a key with no passphrase?10:16
lordievaderGregor3000: No, that is a bad idea. You need to run an ssh agent.10:37
StathisAneed some help with apticron...had it all working correctly - sending daily notification from cron.d etc, but had to change the notification time. Now whatever time I enter I do not get any notifications. If I manually do a "sudo apticron" I get the notification alright11:57
StathisAso smth is wrong with the cron.d schedule?11:57
StathisAsyslog : Jun 14 14:10:01 servername CRON[1008]: (root) CMD (if test -x /usr/sbin/apticron; then /usr/sbin/apticron --cron; else true; fi)11:58
StathisAbut nothing else after it11:58
StathisAif i do a manual "sudo apticron" I see the mail going out in the syslog...11:58
StathisAvia localhost postfix11:59
StathisAand I receive it too on my mailbox11:59
StathisAso somethings up with the cron job i think11:59
YamakasYany help with building a sssd package ?12:38
DWSRHey all, I have installed Ubuntu Server 14.04 into a Hyper-V VM. I installed linux-virtual through apt but it is not being loaded by default and there is no grub menu to select which kernel I want. How do I remove all of the generic kernels from my system and force virtual?13:48

RoyKDWSR: AFAIK the virtual kernel package is just a metapackage these days14:16
RoyKDWSR: the normal kernel packages work well14:16
DWSROh, really? :(14:19
DWSRRoyK: Someone should tell Microsoft then: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn531029.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-214721739614:19
DWSRAh yes, you are correct.14:21
DWSRhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-virtual14:21
DWSRWhen did that change?14:21
RoyKDWSR: not sure - some years back14:26
DWSROh well, that answers that. Might build a custom kernel that strips out some of the hardware support.14:27
RoyKno need14:30
RoyKdrivers are only loaded when needed14:31
RoyKDWSR: do you have problems you're seeking to fix, or is it just the thought?14:32
DWSRRoyK: I'm a bit constrained on resources, so making the kernel smaller seems like a reasonable way to optimize.14:34
DWSRBut I completely forgot about DDL.14:35
DWSREh, probably more trouble than it's worth, then14:36

zermannoHi, which are the common ways to analyze log files? As an example, how people query apache logs?17:48
tewardis there a way for me to force IPv4 resolution preferable to v6 on servers?18:09
tewardi haven't set up v6 routing yet on some of my VPSes so they fail updates, i'm just doing manual v4 /etc/hosts entries18:09
teward(14.04 VPSes)18:09
maswandon't configure a global v6 address if you don't have it working?18:10
tewardmaswan: i don't have one configured?18:12
tewardunless something is doing it without telling me18:12
* teward shrugs18:12
tewardi should set up at least one v6 imo *shrugs*18:12
maswanip addr list18:13
maswanwill tell you18:13
jellymaswan: the resolver library tends to give AAAA records in some cases regardless of a globally routable ipv6 being set up or not18:13
maswanOk, I don't run many v4-only systems anymore18:14
maswanbut that used to be the semantics of it18:15
tewardit's only a temporary thing, but meh18:16
tewardv6 is finnicky on this box18:16
tewards/this box/these boxes/18:16
tewardmm, looks like v6 is still getting set as a route18:17
tewardbut then it fails18:17
tewardgod i hate myself18:32
tewardi accidentally ip6tables'd the rules such that lo was accepted but RELATED,ESTABLISHED going outbound from apt and such was getting bounced18:32
tewardrouting was fine though apparently :/18:33

xperiahi all. what is the best way to increase the amount of possible parallel connection for apache2 on ubuntu. sometimes i have spamer attacks with over 1000 Connection that blocks everything at once. need help with this. thanks for any tips.22:29
bekksDrop his connections instead of pointlessly increasing the total number of connections.22:32
xperiabekks: thanks a lot for your tip. yes droping the connection sound good but how can i find out which connection to drop and if possible to log this droped connections so i can use iptables.22:35
bekksInvestigate your webservers log files.22:35
xperiai dont see any errors for timeouts in the apache log files. not sure if apache logs tmeouts by default.22:36
bekksWhy do you search for timeouts?22:36
bekksInvestigate the log files to see how and from where your spamming is actually spamming.22:37
bekksIt has nothing to do with timeouts. Timeouts only occur of your webserver cant handle the requests anymore.22:37
xperiabekks: for what else should i search else ? the connections by apache are closed after 10 seconds timeouts so it would be good to log this problematic connections. i dont see however this spammer connection anywhere in the logs however i see them on the router allways in a 10 Minute Interval.22:39
bekksI just told you what to look for.22:40
xperiaokey i have found a good monitor tracker for apache2 to get a insight what is going on with the server. think this will help a little to isolate the problem much more.22:46
