| JaguarDown | Hey does anybody use ddclient? I have a simple question which I couldn't find the answer to on their website. | 00:34 |
|---|---|---|
| JaguarDown | I want to update my IP address since I am running a home server and the IP from my ISP may change. My domain is with godaddy who apparently doesn't offer a straightfoward service to do this. | 00:35 |
| JaguarDown | After reading on a website I simply changed the dns name servers to ones from freedns.afraid.org | 00:35 |
| JaguarDown | Anyway, on my godaddy account I changed them to ns1.afraid.org, ns2, ns3, ns4, etc. My question is in the config file for ddclient under the "server" field will simply "freedns.afraid.org" suffice or do I need to explicitly list the dns name servers? | 00:36 |
| JaguarDown | I had a free subdomain from freedns.afraid.org previously with ddclient running to update my IP and this is how it was configured before so I am assuming it will work. | 00:36 |

| jak2000 | how to change the resolv.conf permanently i am change and when restart resolv.conf is empty | 03:23 |
| teward | jak2000: do you use /etc/network/interfaces to manage your interfaces? If so, add these lines to the configuration stanzas for your interfaces: dns-nameservers 1.2.3.4 | 03:28 |

| arcsky | hey guys whats the differnt between DNS server and a DNS proxy? | 08:35 |
| lordievader | arcsky: A DNS server actually resolves urls where a proxy forwards requests to another server (usually caching the replies). | 08:46 |
| arcsky | lordievader: thanks i undertand now | 08:49 |

| med_ | Daviey, jamespage, zul: python-neutronclient in UCA Kilo don't work | 19:55 |
| med_ | needs at least 2.4.0 | 19:55 |
| med_ | 2.3.11 is too old. | 19:56 |
| med_ | please look at bug #1479496 | 19:56 |
| ubottu | bug 1479496 in python-neutronclient (Ubuntu) "python-neutronclient 1:2.3.11 doesn't work with Kilo" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1479496 | 19:56 |
| med_ | in a large network environment, it doesn't work. | 19:56 |
| med_ | (it worked fine in Juno with the same networks but doesn't in Kilo as something in neutron must be changing & reporting differently.) | 19:57 |
| med_ | it breaks things consequently as the python-neutronclient library is used by ... neutron, nova, etc. | 19:57 |
| Daviey | med_: Based on what you have said, it must also be true that it is broken in Ubuntu Vivid and neutron upstream has a poor lower version of neutronclient in requirements.txt | 19:59 |
| teward | wheeee, useful bug data is useful | 20:03 |
| teward | although i typo'd my apport hooks. oops. | 20:03 |
| teward | sarnold: rbasak: it's definitely GREAT to have usable debug data for nginx now isn't it xD (lot more 'invalid!' bugs :P) | 20:04 |

| alximych | hi! I manually installed and succesfully started tomcat8 on ubuntu machine. But I can not see tomcat8 among services. What do I have to do to be able to start/stop/status tomcat8 from "sudo service tomcat8 start"? A manual for dummies would be much of help, thanks! | 20:07 |
| Daviey | med_: If it is easy to reproduce, i'd be tempted to git bisect the client :) | 20:07 |
| med_ | it's already fixed in the upstream client | 20:07 |
| med_ | we just need it.... | 20:07 |
| med_ | https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/python-neutronclient/commit/?id=4b6ed760d4303744907feefd81e60f38ae3750ef | 20:07 |
| med_ | in UCA | 20:07 |
| med_ | thanks Daviey | 20:08 |
| med_ | which means an older client MIGHT work. | 20:09 |
| Daviey | med_: The normal process for UCA updates is to get it fixed in the Ubuntu release that tracks the OpenStack release, in this instance it is Ubuntu Vivid. So a normal SRU then, then a copy to UCA. | 20:10 |
| med_ | gotcha | 20:11 |
| Daviey | med_: but funnily enough, Ubuntu Cloud Archive isn't a Ubuntu deliverable :)... So you'll need to speak to someone at Canonical for that :) | 20:11 |
| med_ | (and yes, I'd forgotten that much) | 20:11 |
| med_ | truestory. | 20:11 |
| K4k | When locking down the grub2 prompt, I set the password_pbkdf2 line in /etc/grub.d/40_custom and update-grub yells at me. It complains that "password_pbkdf2 is not found" | 20:13 |
| K4k | I've set this up per the documentation here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Passwords#Password_Encryption | 20:13 |
| Daviey | med_: But if you want to propose it to stable/kilo upstream openstack/python-neutronclient, i can +2 it there... and I can also help SRU it to vivid. :) | 20:14 |
| med_ | nod | 20:14 |
| med_ | working on that | 20:14 |
| med_ | realigning my ducks. | 20:14 |
| med_ | oh, already fixed in stable/kilo | 20:14 |
| med_ | which is using 2.4.0 | 20:15 |
| med_ | unfortunately, vivid didn't update the clients (enough) | 20:15 |
| Daviey | med_: Sadly, *just* missed the neutronclient point release by a few hours... | 20:15 |
| Daviey | (This is another reason point releases suck) | 20:15 |
| Daviey | oh | 20:16 |
| Daviey | med_: There is now stable/kilo branch of neutronclient, doesn't seem fixed there | 20:17 |
| med_ | Daviey, I see the "Reinstate MAX URI length checking" in a git clone of python-neutronclient in the stable/kilo branch. | 20:19 |
| med_ | a403265ea1483e53b93bdb2d60493a9a9e1eb0bc | 20:19 |
| med_ | merges | 20:19 |
| med_ | 4b6ed760d4303744907feefd81e60f38ae3750ef | 20:19 |
| med_ | so merged on Mar 11, 2015 | 20:20 |
| K4k | Wow, the Ubuntu community docs can be so so terribly unclear sometimes | 20:21 |
| Daviey | med_: Ah! you are right | 20:22 |
| Daviey | So.. the minimum versions needs to be 2.6.0 ? | 20:23 |
| med_ | no, even 2.4.0 works | 20:24 |
| * med_ double checks | 20:25 | |
| med_ | yep, 2.4.0 has it | 20:25 |
| med_ | so I'm fine with a debina/patch that cherrypicks the change or a newer version Daviey | 20:25 |
| K4k | How do you boot 14.04 in to single user mode? | 20:29 |
| K4k | I've added "single" to the end of the "linux" line but it just goes to a black screen | 20:29 |
| TJ- | K4k: black-screen probably means you need "nomodeset" as well - the video DRM is not properly supporting mode-setting | 20:32 |

| LewsTherin | Anyone have recommended specs for a mailserver with dovecot, postfix, squirrelmail and a user management UI? Ubuntu 14.04. | 21:38 |
| LewsTherin | Was redirected here from #ubuntu, with an opinion 2core 2GB might be enough. | 21:39 |
| Sling | LewsTherin: for how many users? what kind of mail volume? | 21:41 |
| LewsTherin | Couple emails a day, about 40-50 users. | 21:41 |
| LewsTherin | Emails will be deleted once retrieved. | 21:41 |
| Sling | sounds about right then those specs | 21:42 |
| LewsTherin | Ok, thanks. | 21:42 |
| LewsTherin | What about HDD space? | 21:42 |
| LewsTherin | maybe 5-10GB? | 21:42 |
| Sling | are the users mailboxes limited by quota? | 21:42 |
| Sling | you might want to do that with 40-50 users | 21:42 |
| LewsTherin | Probably won't be. | 21:43 |
| LewsTherin | Hm, ok. | 21:43 |
| LewsTherin | It's part of an automation system, so emails probably won't be on there too long. | 21:43 |
| Sling | well yeah one imap fetch messup and itll be filled with emails :) | 21:43 |
| Sling | but just keep the mail data on a separate partition at least | 21:44 |
| LewsTherin | We'll mainly being using POP, due to requirements of the services that will be connecting in. | 21:44 |
| LewsTherin | Ok, so a 5GB partition for system, 20GB for mail? | 21:45 |
| LewsTherin | Just guessing here. | 21:45 |
| sarnold | how large can your user's inboxes be with just 20gigs? I've got ~1.5 gigs in my ~/.mail_cache/ at the moment, not sure how much actual storage on the server that requires | 21:49 |
| tonyyarusso | LewsTherin: I don't have as many users, but probably a higher volume per day per user, and I'm running it on a single core with 1GB RAM with no problems at all. | 21:49 |
| tonyyarusso | My particular users are up to about 9GB of disk space at the moment, but that number would vary wildly. | 21:50 |
| tonyyarusso | (Ours are IMAP, keeping stuff on the server permanently) | 21:50 |
| tonyyarusso | If you're POPing everything down within a month or less I'd think 20G should be plenty. | 21:51 |
| LewsTherin | Ok | 21:53 |
| HikaruBG | hi guys | 21:56 |
| HikaruBG | I have to run node js server on a remote ubuntu server via SSH | 21:57 |
| HikaruBG | I can run it, but once I close the ssh session - the server is down | 21:57 |
| teward | screen | 21:57 |
| HikaruBG | how can I create server daemon | 21:57 |
| bekks | HikaruBG: you could create an init script, or just run your node js thing in screen, or using nohup. | 21:58 |
| teward | either run it with & at the end which sends it to the background, or use `screen` and run node.js from there, | 21:58 |
| teward | or nohup which is also a slution | 21:58 |
| bekks | Using screen gives you somehow more control, in case it throws console messages. | 21:58 |
| sarnold | screen means you'd have to deal with it again next reboot; I'd go to the trouble of making an initscript or upstart config file for it, that way you don't have to think of it the next reboot :) | 21:58 |
| teward | ^ that | 21:58 |
| teward | heheh | 21:59 |
| teward | sarnold: unless it needs manual startup, say, because it needs credentials or a pw or something set up, which would be odd but still | 21:59 |
| teward | :p | 21:59 |
| sarnold | teward: eh, good point, ssl privkey or something.. | 22:00 |
| teward | mhm | 22:00 |
| bekks | I never dealt with nodejs - what is this thing? | 22:01 |
| teward | bekks: another webapp solution | 22:01 |
| bekks | What is it for? | 22:01 |
| teward | web applications :p | 22:01 |
| teward | https://nodejs.org/ | 22:01 |
| sarnold | bekks: server-side javascript | 22:01 |
| sarnold | bekks: for folks who just can't get enough callback hell :) | 22:01 |
| teward | "Node.js is an open source, cross-platform runtime environment for server-side and networking applications. Node.js applications are written in JavaScript and can be run within the Node.js runtime on OS X, Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, NonStop, IBM AIX, IBM System z and IBM i." | 22:01 |

| teward | rbasak: hello! | 22:03 |
| teward | long time no talk :P | 22:03 |
| teward | for the record, Landscape makes managing 8 Ubuntu Server VMs real simple - one location to rule them all :P | 22:04 |
| teward | (+1 for Landscape :P) | 22:04 |
| rbasak | Nice! | 22:04 |
| teward | oh that reminds me | 22:05 |
| teward | where can i make a bugreport/complaint about it? | 22:05 |
| teward | given i'm on LDS, not the cloud service, canonical has no obligation to listen :P | 22:05 |
| bekks | teward: that landscape thing - how much does it cost to manage my 5 Ubuntu instances at home? | 22:05 |
| teward | bekks: zero if you set it up on a server yourself. 10 physical machines, 10 Virtual machines, with the 'free' license - http://askubuntu.com/questions/549809/how-do-i-install-landscape-for-personal-use | 22:06 |
| teward | past that you have to pay per system | 22:06 |
| bekks | teward: Thanks a lot :) | 22:06 |
| teward | and I forget how much it is per | 22:06 |
| teward | that's a question for canonical sales | 22:06 |
| bekks | I'd not reach that limit at home :) | 22:06 |
| teward | bekks: nor would I, even at work - 6 VMs all managed and accounted for, one central location, soon to be 7 | 22:07 |
| bekks | teward: And it isnt a big problem to retire an old VM and set another vm in place? | 22:07 |
| teward | bekks: you can remove a computer, which opens up its license slot for use | 22:09 |
| teward | bekks: http://i.imgur.com/GIhq3qV.png <-- remove computer button right there | 22:09 |
| bekks | teward: Ah ok - thats good to know. A few of my VMs wont live that long and are replaced by new ones quite regularly. | 22:09 |
| teward | it asks if you want to confirm it, and says "Deleting this will remove it from the system, and will free up a license slot for another system." or something similar | 22:09 |
| teward | i have two landscape instances i work with... one at work and one for my own systems | 22:10 |
| bekks | I guess thats a good way to go then. | 22:10 |
| teward | bekks: configuration was a pain | 22:10 |
| bekks | teward: ouch | 22:10 |
| teward | i had to use actual SSL certs | 22:10 |
| teward | because even when the custom CA certs are validated by the world, landscape-client won't work with it | 22:10 |
| teward | (and by 'the world' i mean the test lab I tested it on) | 22:10 |
| teward | hence my wanting to bug-report on the client | 22:11 |
| bekks | Well, that sounds like I want to implement an ansible instance instead | 22:11 |
| teward | bekks: probably is, but since my domain is wildcarded... :p | 22:11 |
| bekks | I'll take a look into both - ansible would be a good deal, since it supports more OS than landscape. | 22:12 |
| teward | right | 22:12 |
| teward | the enviros i'm in those're all Ubuntu boxes | 22:12 |
| teward | VM or physical | 22:12 |
| teward | won't help for other OSes | 22:12 |
| bekks | I have a few other here, like Solaris, Windows, etc. | 22:13 |
| teward | mhm | 22:16 |
| tonyyarusso | sarnold: FWIW, I have actually run things in screen on startup using the magic @reboot cron time. An init script would be better for most things though. | 22:22 |
| tonyyarusso | (I've used that to launch my irssi session.) | 22:22 |
| sarnold | tonyyarusso: hah, I've never thought to combine @reboot with screen :) | 22:22 |
| tonyyarusso | You just have to use the right flags for start detached. | 22:23 |
| tonyyarusso | Works well for things that should launch at startup, but that you will be manually interacting with later. | 22:23 |
| sarnold | irssi is a good candidate for that | 22:26 |
