[02:14] <Geom`> ubuntu 16.04 server states "support guaranteed until April 2021 — 64-bit only.". what about the 32-bit?
[03:36] <patdk-lap> odd, Geom, I can't locat that anywhere
[08:24] <segmastar> Hello?
[08:26] <segmastar> Anyone here?
[09:26] <Tobias92> Hey guys, since upgrading to Xenial I noticed that '/usr/share/doc/module-init-tools' is a symlink to '/usr/share/doc/libkmod2'. As a result, the 'changelog.Debian.gz' file of 'module-init-tools' and 'libkmod2' is the same file and is overwritten by both packages. The differences are trivial (the package name in the last line), but enough to cause debsums mismatches. Have you observed this issue before?
[09:53] <jin7boy> hi.  I can't find the string "EnableSendfile" in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.
[10:13] <jin7boy> ok~~
[10:26] <iliv> hi, I ran into a problem with my RAID-1 devices on Xenial. I would appreciate it if somebody could take a look a this AskUbuntu question that described the problem in detail: http://askubuntu.com/questions/809182/ubuntu-xenial-fails-to-mount-software-raid-1-if-fstab-records-for-dev-mdx-are-p
[10:33] <ikonia> iliv: you'll need to either a.) change the metadata on the device names to be md0 etc, or b.) change the mdadam.conf and fstab to point at the current names
[10:34] <iliv> ikonia both devices were created as /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 and been used as such for years in Arch Linux
[10:34] <ikonia> you're not using archlinux now
[10:35] <iliv> no, I am not
[10:35] <ikonia> and to be honest - I'm not going to support askubuntu
[10:35] <ikonia> you want to use askubuntu, use askubuntu, I don't like askubuntu/forum questions being posted in irc
[10:35] <iliv> who are you exactly?
[10:35] <ikonia> in what respect ?
[10:40] <Geom> is daskubuntu is not related to ubuntu.com?
[10:40] <ikonia> never even heard of it
[10:41] <Geom> *ask i mean lol
[10:41] <ikonia> askubuntu is an answer platform from ubuntu, yes,
[10:42] <Geom> server is running fine.. been learning a lot :)
[10:42] <ikonia> ?
[10:42] <Geom> my ubuntu server
[10:42] <ikonia> ?
[10:43] <Geom> ¿
[10:46] <iliv> okay so the answer to my question is: update-initramfs -k all -u

[14:10] <Geom> does /dev/cdrom link to all my dvd drives?
[14:10] <ikonia> no
[14:12] <Geom> let me rephrase.... /dev/sr# link to /dev/cdrom?
[14:13] <ikonia> look at the symlink
[14:14] <Geom> i have to google on how to look at it. brb
[14:14] <ikonia> ls
[14:15] <Geom> it is :)
[14:18] <Geom> im making a script to auto run a command if it sense a disc insertion on any dvd drives
[14:21] <ikonia> "great" ?
[14:22] <jonah> hi can anyone help I'm trying to follow this guide: https://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-unison-file-synchronization-between-two-servers-on-ubuntu-11.10
[14:23] <jonah> but not matter what I try, unison still asks for a password
[14:23] <ikonia> no, as guides for 11.10 are obsolete
[14:24] <jonah> ikonia: haha thanks! but basically on server 2 I've renabled root login, yes unison on server 1 still asks for a password despite me generating the public/private keys!
[14:24] <ikonia> I'm not joking
[14:24] <ikonia> 11.10 is obsolete and guides for it are obsolete
[14:25] <ikonia> howtoforge is also a pile of garbage in general
[14:25] <jonah> ikonia: haha that dry humour gets me every time! (But I can tell you're being serious about Howtoforge, that IS rubbish!)
[14:25] <ikonia> I'm being serious in full reference to my statement
[15:35] <patdk-lap> well, it's not rubbish
[15:35] <patdk-lap> but a tutorial is a tutorial
[15:35] <patdk-lap> it is how one person solved his goal
[15:36] <patdk-lap> the likely hood of your goals, problems, infrastructure, and knowledge are of atleast the same level, is unlikely
[15:36] <patdk-lap> so the tutorial is useless
[15:37] <patdk-lap> you knowledge of each component used is VERY important
[16:22] <sutliff707> I can not get smartmontools to send email reports however i can successfully email myself using mailutils
[18:32] <sutliff707> I can not get smartmontools to send email reports however i can successfully email myself using mailutils
[18:52] <jonah> hi does anyone use Unison for file syncing? I've got it set up and it works but I wanted to sync a server home dir to a slave server. The problem is I get "user does not exist" for some of the folders which obviously aren't on the other machine. How do you go about syncing users and groups across two machines, so when you make one on one machine it makes it on the other and vice versa? thanks for any help
[18:56] <sypher> jonah: Is this still on the 11.10 box from the HowToForge thing?
[19:00] <jonah> sypher: Sort of, I got that working in the end but now I'm just stuck with how to sync users across machines...
[19:00] <sypher> jonah: Yeah, four and a half hours didn't magically make 11.10 not obsolete.
[19:01] <jonah> sypher: haha yeah - it just made it more obsolete! But I guess I just have to try with the resources I have and the guides out there...
[19:02] <sypher> jonah: I'm fairly certain that 14.04 and 16.04 are available to you.
[19:02] <jonah> sypher: and ask for help in here too of course! Hopefully then I'll get there in the end.
[19:02] <sypher> jonah: The problem is that the vast majority of people that have the ability to assist you will likely decline to support a nearly five year old OS that's long been out of support.
[19:02] <jonah> sypher: yeah I'm using 16.04 ! Just the guide was for 11.10... as I couldn't find anything more up-to-date
[19:03] <sypher> jonah: That's probably why you're running into issues. Instructions for 11.10 will probably deviate SERIOUSLY from what needs to be done in 16.04.
[19:03] <jonah> sypher: There was no guide for 16.04 so just tried using an older guide...
[19:04] <jonah> sypher: yeah I know... that's why I asked in here!! sometimes it's like going round in circles ;)
[19:05] <sypher> jonah: I believe this is the first you mentioned that you weren't trying to do this ON 11.10.
[19:06] <sypher> So, let me give this a swing. I can't really say much to unison, but what issue are you having?
[19:07] <jonah> sypher: sorry I should of made that clear, I just said I was following a guide, should of pointed out my OS didn't match the older one in the guide!
[19:07] <sypher> That would have been beneficial, yes. :P
[19:08] <jonah> sypher: well baiscally that guide kicks ass (apart from being out of date!!) for what I'm trying to do, which is just sync two server in a basic way to offer some failover. The files will sync if the users match, but I'm not sure how I sync the users up first so that when you make a new user on server1 it syncs to server 2 and vice versa...
[19:11] <sypher> You can sync the home directories, but I would strongly advise NOT trying to replicate created users.
[19:13] <jonah> sypher: well in my setup each user is a Virtual Server. So say I have bob.com on server one, it's user is bob - if server one fails and server 2 picks up where it left off it would then need the bob user also to run the site/php stuff fcgi etc?
[19:13] <sypher> Wait, you're trying to run services with this?
[19:15] <TheEagerPadawan> is there something as tail -f for ps aux
[19:15] <sypher> TheEagerPadawan: top?
[19:15] <TheEagerPadawan> i know there is a cron job running somewhere but i don't know what the timeframe is
[19:15] <jonah> sypher: yeah just to provide failover, if server one dies then server two can run the sites/mail etc until server 1 is back up
[19:16] <sypher> jonah: This doesn't sound like a good failover plan.
[19:16] <sypher> TheEagerPadawan: Check the cron log?
[19:16] <sypher> TheEagerPadawan: Just trying to think of easier alternatives.
[19:17] <TheEagerPadawan> crontab -e iirc
[19:17] <jonah> sypher: Is there a better way to achieve failover with just two servers?
[19:18] <sypher> TheEagerPadawan: No, the cron LOG. Check for "CRON" entries in the syslog.
[19:18] <TheEagerPadawan> and where would that be located?
[19:18] <sypher>  /var/log/syslog
[19:19] <sypher> try: sudo grep CRON /var/log/syslog | less
[19:19] <sypher> That'll let you page through the results.
[19:19] <TheEagerPadawan> that won't work | pentesting system
[19:22] <sypher> Then have fun.
[19:34] <sutliff707> can anyone help me with smartd monitoring
[19:47] <patdk-lap> configure smartd.conf and have smartd start on boot, done
[19:48] <sutliff707> Yeah I have that all done but I believe something is wrong in my smartd.conf file because I never get the emails
[19:48] <sutliff707> here is a link to what my file currently looks like
[19:48] <sutliff707> http://pastebin.com/zS8atcMw
[19:48] <patdk-lap> well, it uses sendmail
[19:48] <patdk-lap> did you install and configure an mta or nullmailer
[19:48] <patdk-lap> hopefully a nullmailer
[19:49] <patdk-lap> sutliff707, so no, you didn't configure it at all
[19:49] <sutliff707> I have mailx, mailutils, ssmtp
[19:49] <patdk-lap> did you bother to read line 16 of that file?
[19:50] <sutliff707> scroll to the bottom
[19:50] <patdk-lap> why?
[19:50] <patdk-lap> it says nothing after line 22 will EVER be read
[19:50] <patdk-lap> like I said, did you bother to read line 16
[19:50] <patdk-lap> I see it on line 22 and on line 151
[19:51] <patdk-lap> so that is twice, lines 154+ will NEVER be read
[19:52] <sutliff707> Alright, im an idiot so should I delete all of it except what I have at the bottom
[19:52] <patdk-lap> or move the bottom stuff to the top
[19:53] <sutliff707> so would this work http://pastebin.com/EVUwBBgX
[19:54] <patdk-lap> no
[19:55] <patdk-lap> atleast not if you wanted anything besides the first line to be used
[19:55] <sutliff707> How would I have to do it then have the DEVICESCAN be the last line?
[19:56] <patdk-lap> heh?
[19:56] <patdk-lap> just make line 1 come after those others
[19:56] <patdk-lap> I don't see what is so hard about that
[20:04] <sutliff707> I guess Im just confused because im new to this, sorry if it makes it frustrating. So you are saying this will work http://pastebin.com/E9vYuMYP
[20:29] <Thumpxr> Has anyone a clue why my ubuntu box (apache, reverse proxy, mysql, voice server, openVPN) work fine via openVPN as long as i browse on https sites but redirects to my own server ip/website when i try to access a site which doesnt support https ?
[20:38] <ikonia> TheRinger: you've not given us much info, but I suspect it's down to the proxying
[21:54] <guillaume__> hello
[21:56] <guillaume__> i'm in a pretty bad situation, i was doing an upgrade to 16.04.1 on my server and it was telling me it had to update the db which failed and i accidentally pressed "ctrl + c" which cut the ssh connection with a weird bug. I'm in another ssh session and i can't do any command because the process is locked because already open on the broken ssh connection doing the update
[23:00] <sutliff> can anyone help me configure smartd
