| anthonym | Alrighty, I have a question. I have a company with two locations. I'm trying to figure out the best way to have all my worker computers connect to a ubuntu server for terminal services. I've looked at LTSP, but it seems as though over WAN it will be dreadfully slow and hog a lot of bandwidth. I've looked at xrdp but it seems extremely clunky. I've looked at NoMachine (FreeNX) but | 03:21 |
|---|---|---|
| anthonym | it seems out of date. I've looked at x2go but it doesn't look too nice. I just want to turn a ubuntu/linux server into a terminal services server (like a windows terminal services server), where clients can login (via rdp or whatever) and get their own session. | 03:21 |
| anthonym | and I don't want to use a windows terminal services server due to cost and licencing. | 03:21 |
| tarpman | anthonym: what didn't you like about x2go? | 03:54 |
| tarpman | anthonym: my (former) $dayjob uses freenx server with the x2go libs underneath, and nomachine's client (nxplayer aka enterprise client) since it has a slick gui. took a bit of doing to get it to work, though, including a few SRUs | 03:56 |
| sarnold | what does something like that offer that ssh -X doesn't do? | 03:58 |
| tarpman | sarnold: NX does some neat compression (of the X protocol) to get much efficiency (mainly in terms of round-trips AIUI), so actually usable over WAN | 03:59 |
| sarnold | tarpman: oh, that does sound nice :) | 04:00 |
| tarpman | sarnold: it also implements an X server, so you get a whole desktop + session rather than a particular program (yes, I know you can forward gnome-session, IME it isn't so much fun) | 04:00 |
| tarpman | the bad news is the X server it implements is from 2004 | 04:01 |
| tarpman | but the x2go guys are doing excellent work on fixing that, biggest of hugs to them | 04:01 |
| sarnold | tarpman: oh .. so you'd have to have a window manager and all that jazz? | 04:02 |
| tarpman | yes | 04:02 |
| sarnold | well, I guess if you really wanted the gui to run somewhere else, that might be worth the tradeoff | 04:04 |
| sarnold | thanks tarpman :) | 04:04 |

| moss | hello, can anyone point me to a guide on installing/configuring Corosync2+Pacemaker on Ubuntu 14.04-LTS? I've looked but can't find any reliable documentation. Thanks in advance. | 13:57 |
| jvwjgames | Hi | 13:57 |
| jvwjgames | I am having problems with my server | 13:58 |
| jvwjgames | For some reason I can't access the internet | 13:58 |
| ogra_ | that at least makes your server very very safe against attacks from there :) | 13:59 |
| jvwjgames | Yup | 14:00 |
| jvwjgames | My server has a static IP set but for some reason the interfaces are trying to get a dhcp lease | 14:01 |
| jvwjgames | So it is cause dhcp to timeout | 14:01 |
| jvwjgames | So basically my static is getting ignored and dhcp is running to try and obtain an IP from no where | 14:02 |
| _ruben | kill dhclient3 | 14:03 |
| qman__ | If you already set the static config in /etc/network/interfaces, dhclient -r eth0; ifdown eth0; ifup eth0 | 14:03 |
| _ruben | then again, a running dhcp client shouldn't interfere, if there's no dhcp server that is | 14:04 |
| jvwjgames | Pingdom witch is a remote monitoring station for my server just received an icmp ping reply from my server and now reports it as online | 14:07 |
| jvwjgames | Thanks | 14:07 |
| rbasak | matsubara: would you mind seeing if you can finish off SRU verification for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/squid3/+bug/1336742 for me please? The reporter cannot reproduce, but Oleg had posted a test case that reproduced for him. | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1336742 in squid3 (Ubuntu Trusty) "Caching responses with "Vary" header" [Medium,Fix committed] | 14:07 |
| matsubara | rbasak, don't mind at all. I'll take a look. | 14:08 |

| ginkobin | Hey I have a question. I'm trying to teach a friend how to setup Ubuntu as a server for the first time | 14:22 |
| ginkobin | hey said he needs to make sure it is updog compatible, does anyone know if updog is supported? | 14:23 |
| Pici | ginkobin: you should ask him what updog is. | 14:25 |
| spicypixel | I heard it's been depreciated since it's now using systemd | 14:26 |
| ginkobin | All he said is that it was a legacy driver | 14:26 |
| fixxxermet | Hey everyone. I installed ubuntu via a usb drive, onto a sata disk. Unfortunatly the usb drive messed up the hard disk ordering and I screwed up and installed grub to the USB drive (and Ubuntu to the hard disk drive). Computer boots fine if I boot from the USB drive. | 14:26 |
| ginkobin | I have no idea what for | 14:26 |
| fixxxermet | Can I just install grub to the hard disk drive from the cli? | 14:26 |
| jelly | fixxxermet: sure, something like "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" or wherever your disk is | 14:28 |
| jelly | assuming grub-pc and not the EFI thing | 14:28 |
| ginkobin | fixxxermet: you probably should be sure to use grub2 as well | 14:30 |
| ginkobin | not legacy | 14:30 |
| OerHeks | !grub2 | 14:40 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 14:40 |
| RoyK | !grub1 | 15:17 |
| ubottu | grub 1 is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub for Karmic onwards | 15:17 |
| RoyK | !lilo | 15:18 |
| ubottu | lilo is an alternative [Li]nux Boot[Lo]ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead. | 15:18 |
| RoyK | :) | 15:18 |
| * jelly would be impressed if there was also an !extlinux | 15:25 | |
| DammitJim | what do you guys read daily to know if there is a critical update for which one needs to reboot the servers? | 15:50 |
| RoyK | DammitJim: well, you can just login to the server to check | 15:50 |
| DammitJim | I'm thinking as a systems administrator | 15:51 |
| OerHeks | http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ | 15:51 |
| DammitJim | OerHeks, that's what you read daily? | 15:52 |
| RoyK | DammitJim: you could make a cron job checking for the existence of /var/run/reboot-required and post and email about it if it's there | 15:52 |
| OerHeks | maybe there has been someone that puts those messages in a conkyrc. yes, i check a few pages daily. | 15:52 |
| RoyK | or even autoreboot if it's there (if you dare) | 15:52 |
| DammitJim | no, I can't auto-reboot | 15:52 |
| RoyK | DammitJim: most won't do that :) | 15:52 |
| OerHeks | RoyK +1 automatic updates | 15:53 |
| DammitJim | what I probably really need to do is have the ability to apply critical updates w/o having to reboot | 15:53 |
| DammitJim | I have automatic critical updates, but no automatic reboots | 15:53 |
| RoyK | OerHeks: obviously, yes | 15:53 |
| OerHeks | as of kernel 4.x you would not need to reboot anymore. | 15:53 |
| DammitJim | i know! | 15:53 |
| DammitJim | too bad, we are still on 3.X | 15:53 |
| RoyK | OerHeks: erm... what did they do? | 15:53 |
| DammitJim | still on 3.16.0-45 | 15:54 |
| RoyK | OerHeks: did ksplice get in? | 15:55 |
| OerHeks | live kernel patching http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/04/linux-kernel-4-0-new-features | 15:55 |
| OerHeks | ‘Hurr durr I’m a sheep’ | 15:56 |
| OerHeks | But that does not solve current issue, watching /var/run/reboot-required is the easiest way i guess | 15:57 |
| enleeten | can't wait for that on my servers :) | 15:57 |
| DammitJim | OerHeks, I know I need to reboot my servers (they've been waiting for days) | 15:59 |
| DammitJim | but I don't consider those fixes critical for our environment | 15:59 |
| DammitJim | I just need to come up with a system that tells me if I need to schedule a reboot or not | 16:00 |
| DammitJim | a reboot in my environment is a pain in the butt | 16:00 |
| RoyK | OerHeks: something like: if [ -f /var/run/reboot-required ]; then echo 'I (`hostname`) need a reboot, sir!' | mail -s 'reboot required' someone@somewhere' | 16:01 |
| DammitJim | I would get that email every day :D | 16:01 |
| RoyK | s/$/ ; fi/ | 16:01 |
| DammitJim | ok, so just going to the website should do http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ | 16:01 |
| RoyK | DammitJim: then just touch a file like 'warning_sent' and remove it later | 16:02 |
| DammitJim | thanks | 16:02 |
| OerHeks | Still wonder how you would determin why you don't need to reboot, if that request is set. | 16:02 |
| OerHeks | is there no timeframe where you have no users? like 2:am-5:am | 16:03 |
| DammitJim | OerHeks, no | 16:03 |
| DammitJim | and yes, I know... we need to create some kind of load balancing (that's not the right word) | 16:04 |
| DammitJim | so that we can put a server offline and let another one pick up the work | 16:04 |
| DammitJim | I mean... USN-2701-1... it sounds critical | 16:05 |
| DammitJim | but at this time, I haven't considered it critical enough for me to have to reboot the server for it to take place | 16:05 |
| DammitJim | I don't know... I'm still learning what is a good balance | 16:05 |
| DammitJim | there have been kernel fixes almost every 4 days in the last 2 weeks | 16:06 |

| blizzow | I have a machine I'm trying to install ubuntu cloud-installer openstack on. It's a fresh 15.04 installation and I made sure to add the virtual machine host and openssh server roles during installation. I am trying the single installer guide from here: http://ubuntu-cloud-installer.readthedocs.org/en/latest/single-installer.guide.html | 21:24 |
| blizzow | The install hangs after bootstrapping juju. | 21:24 |
| blizzow | At the bottom of the installer screen, I see this: "[INFO] -> Waiting for machines to start: 3 unknown (error: kvm container creation failed: exit status 1) ... | 21:26 |
| blizzow | kvm-ok returns INFO: /dev/kvm exists KVM accerleration can be used. | 21:27 |
| blizzow | I made sure virtinst, qemu-kvm and uvtool-libvirt are installed. | 21:29 |
| blizzow | Still no joy. | 21:29 |
| blizzow | Anyone know how to get the ubuntu openstack installer running on 15.04? | 21:30 |
| sarnold | blizzow: is there any more detailed information in any log files? | 21:33 |
| blizzow | sarnold: I don't see any errors in the log that would point at something. | 21:48 |
| blizzow | checked /home/ubuntu/.cloud-install/commands.log | 21:49 |
| sarnold | blizzow: how about /var/log/libvirt/ ? | 21:49 |
| blizzow | sarnold: I checked there and not a single log file exists in it. | 21:50 |
| blizzow | just a couple .placeholder files. | 21:50 |
| sarnold | hah :( | 21:51 |
| blizzow | I also did an: lxc-console -n openstack-single-ubuntu and looked in /var/log/cloud-init.log and /var/log/cloud-init-output.log and don't see any errors. | 21:51 |
| blizzow | I looks like juju is running on the lxc container. but I've never used it, so I don't know what I should be expecting. | 21:53 |
| sarnold | you may have more success in #juju; I don't know if they're familiar with that tool, but they will be better able to help debug juju there | 21:54 |
| blizzow | I don't think it's a juju problem... I think it's an ubuntu cloud-installer problem. I just found in the lxc container /var/log/libvirt/qemu/ubuntu-local-machine-1.log "libvirt: error : libvirtd quit during handshake: Input/output error. | 22:06 |
