[00:49] <NginUS> How do I pin php v5.6 after I add the ppa?
[00:56] <tomreyn> !pinning
[00:56] <tomreyn> NginUS: ^
[00:58] <tomreyn> using PPAs, and especially pinning to specific versions or branches also bears the potential to end up with unsupported software versions with known vulnerabilities after a while.
[03:17] <NginUS> I have this http://bit.ly/2iproVZ in /etc/apt/preferences.d/php5.6 But when I do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install --simulate php, It still tries 7.x
[03:42] <NginUS> I have 2 files contradicting each other, how do I find which one the forst line is in? http://bit.ly/2hlvRwP
[03:57] <NginUS> is noone here?
[04:30] <patdk-lap> why did you use -1?
[04:30] <patdk-lap> -1 == only install if there is NO OTHER version available
[04:30] <patdk-lap> so yes, it would install ANYTHING but 5.6 if it can
[04:32] <patdk-lap> he left :(
[10:49] <whitekidney> if i want to allow multiple hosts to access a nfs share, how do i approach that? i cant find any documentation on how hosts are seperated in /etc/exports
[10:49] <whitekidney> comma? space?
[10:50] <whitekidney>  like this?: /myfolder 192.168.1.1,80.123.123.4(rw,root_squash,sync)
[10:51] <whitekidney> oh here we go, my google-fu eventually worked. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/nfs-allowing-multiple-hosts-666377/
[10:54] <ikonia> exports is the server not the client
[10:55] <whitekidney> yeah, i wanted to allow multiple hosts to access the nfs share
[10:56] <ikonia> oh, you're putting individual IP's in the share rather than just using the subnet and file/share level permissions
[10:56] <whitekidney> they are not on the same subnet
[10:56] <ikonia> it would appear that one of them is an internet address ???
[10:57] <whitekidney> indeed
[10:57] <whitekidney> i should probably set up vpn between our servers, hmm
[10:57] <ikonia> please tell me you're not sharing NFS over the internet ?
[10:58] <whitekidney> :) it's going to be used to share some temporary generated files
[10:58] <ikonia> no idea what that has to do with anything
[10:59] <ikonia> sharing NFS over the internet is a very bad idea
[10:59] <ikonia> but it's up to you
[10:59] <whitekidney> how come ?
[11:00] <ikonia> big security implications
[11:01] <whitekidney> i thought nfs with kerb5 wasn't such a bad thing anymore
[11:03] <ikonia> still not good on the public interenet
[11:03] <ikonia> but it's totally your call
[11:04] <whitekidney> well, you've yet to explain why in detail, i'm fullly aware that exposing nfs to the internet is a bad idea, however i've heard that with nfs4 and proper auth (kerb5) this shouldn't really be an issue?
[11:04] <whitekidney> please do educate me if you think i'm wrong
[11:05] <ikonia> it still exposes a flawed service and daemon set
[11:05] <ikonia> if you think it's fine, and you're comfortable with it, thats fine
[11:07] <whitekidney> so what do you suggest then for real time file syncing to remote hosts?
[11:08] <ikonia> what's the actual use case you have
[11:28] <EvilAngel> yeah
[11:28] <EvilAngel> i'd open nfs to the web
[11:28] <EvilAngel> i'd never*
[11:29] <EvilAngel> it's Sun's cruel joke on the world after all
[11:36] <EvilAngel> oes anyone have a clue why running 'brctl addif br0 eth0' would lock me out of my dedi box running ubuntu?
[11:48] <ikonia> EvilAngel: builting a bridge to a device that then knocks the routing off that device
[11:51] <EvilAngel> i guessed that but how can I share my public facing eth0 with the vm's?
[11:51] <EvilAngel> I thought that was a bridge?
[11:55] <EvilAngel> oh ok, i'm groking this now ikonia, thanks
[11:58] <ikonia> EvilAngel: basically you need to setup the bridge interfaces on the right IP's and then just link them (bridge) to the physical device, however the table going into that physical device must have access to a layer 7 device that can tranposrt those networks
[12:22] <EvilAngel> but only one ip can be assigned to an iface so I'm basically needing port forwarding for my vm's running services like http etc
[12:25] <ikonia> no, multiple IP's can be assigned to an interface
[12:25] <ikonia> thats why I specfically said layer 7 transport
[12:25] <ikonia> EvilAngel: you could also do this a lot simpler with iptbles forwarding
[12:25] <ikonia> rather than bridged network devices
[12:44] <EvilAngel> ok, i think you're right
[16:12] <drab> hi, is there something special to install ubuntu-server xenial in uefi mode?
[16:12] <drab> I found some references to ubuntu installation, but unclear if it's different for -server somehow
[16:13] <drab> I'm pxe booting and it's not obiovus to me if it's installing eufi mode or not, but after installation I still can't boot from that drive
[16:15] <drab> http://askubuntu.com/questions/696999/unable-to-install-grub-in-dev-nvme
[16:15] <drab> for example that mentions "choose to create an EFI boot section"
[16:16] <drab> I see no such thing from parted during ubuntu-server install
[16:23] <OerHeks> drab, do that from a live desktop iso ?
[16:26] <drab> before reboot I tried to get a shell, chrooted into target and installed efivar and efibootmgr
[16:26] <drab> and trying either resulted in a "EFI variables are not supported on this system"
[16:27] <drab> which sounds like I'm not booted EFI mode for whatever reason...
