=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [01:08] any advice for simply switching to the virtual kernel and thus updates will keep using thew newest virtual kernel as well? [01:26] hi all [01:27] how to change the ip of the server? === zz_DenBeiren is now known as DenBeiren === Guest60154 is now known as IdleOne === Krsna is now known as neurotus === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [09:22] Good morning. [10:12] hello 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] once i enter it it authenticates but when i exit and try to login again it asks for password again. [10:13] i am using putty and i imported the linux key hence the comment - "imported-openssh-key" [10:14] Gregor3000: The passphrase is whatever you set it to. [10:16] i'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 time [10:16] PasswordAuthentication no [10:16] ah it means i need to create a key with no passphrase? [10:37] Gregor3000: No, that is a bad idea. You need to run an ssh agent. [11:57] need 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 alright [11:57] so smth is wrong with the cron.d schedule? [11:58] syslog : 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] but nothing else after it [11:58] if i do a manual "sudo apticron" I see the mail going out in the syslog... [11:59] via localhost postfix [11:59] and I receive it too on my mailbox [11:59] so somethings up with the cron job i think [12:38] any help with building a sssd package ? [13:48] Hey 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? [14:08] Hey 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? [14:16] DWSR: AFAIK the virtual kernel package is just a metapackage these days [14:16] DWSR: the normal kernel packages work well [14:19] Oh, really? :( [14:19] RoyK: Someone should tell Microsoft then: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn531029.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 [14:21] Ah yes, you are correct. [14:21] http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-virtual [14:21] When did that change? [14:26] DWSR: not sure - some years back [14:27] Oh well, that answers that. Might build a custom kernel that strips out some of the hardware support. [14:30] no need [14:31] drivers are only loaded when needed [14:32] DWSR: do you have problems you're seeking to fix, or is it just the thought? [14:34] RoyK: I'm a bit constrained on resources, so making the kernel smaller seems like a reasonable way to optimize. [14:35] But I completely forgot about DDL. [14:36] Eh, probably more trouble than it's worth, then [15:41] hi all [15:41] how to disable, my server sleep, i dont want the server sleep, tahnks [17:18] Hi all. My Ubuntu Server is under a spam attack at the moment and i need help with ip tables to block this Spammers. My question is how can i list all the tables with iptables so i can only export a specific table or better target. i have a script that log all attacks and i can create a file list specific for iptables to import it but i need to know how exactly this file need to look a like. === Guest63544 is now known as hxm === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [17:48] Hi, which are the common ways to analyze log files? As an example, how people query apache logs? [18:09] is there a way for me to force IPv4 resolution preferable to v6 on servers? [18:09] i haven't set up v6 routing yet on some of my VPSes so they fail updates, i'm just doing manual v4 /etc/hosts entries [18:09] (14.04 VPSes) [18:10] don't configure a global v6 address if you don't have it working? [18:12] maswan: i don't have one configured? [18:12] unless something is doing it without telling me [18:12] * teward shrugs [18:12] i should set up at least one v6 imo *shrugs* [18:13] ip addr list [18:13] will tell you [18:13] maswan: the resolver library tends to give AAAA records in some cases regardless of a globally routable ipv6 being set up or not [18:14] Ok, I don't run many v4-only systems anymore [18:15] but that used to be the semantics of it [18:16] it's only a temporary thing, but meh [18:16] v6 is finnicky on this box [18:16] s/this box/these boxes/ [18:17] mm, looks like v6 is still getting set as a route [18:17] but then it fails [18:32] god i hate myself [18:32] i accidentally ip6tables'd the rules such that lo was accepted but RELATED,ESTABLISHED going outbound from apt and such was getting bounced [18:33] routing was fine though apparently :/ === rylinaux is now known as Guest88385 [19:42] teward: hehe [22:29] hi 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. [22:32] Drop his connections instead of pointlessly increasing the total number of connections. [22:35] bekks: 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] Investigate your webservers log files. [22:36] i dont see any errors for timeouts in the apache log files. not sure if apache logs tmeouts by default. [22:36] Why do you search for timeouts? [22:37] Investigate the log files to see how and from where your spamming is actually spamming. [22:37] It has nothing to do with timeouts. Timeouts only occur of your webserver cant handle the requests anymore. [22:39] bekks: 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. [22:40] I just told you what to look for. [22:46] okey 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. === zz_DenBeiren is now known as DenBeiren
