guillaume___hi, i'm trying to create and seed a torrent on my ubuntu server. I manage to create the torrent file, then i manage to add it to the client in order to download it and seed it from the server (that's the logic?) but the download doesn't start and the status is idle, can someone help me please ?00:48

soahcccHey guys, I have a 3rd party process that is downloading files. Unfortunately it creates folders without giving group the permission to list directories. Is there any way to enforce that from outside aside a cronjob that chmod's over the directory?15:03
soahcccI tried the thing with sticky bit / default permission but apparently the process deliberately sets the permissions this way15:04
soahcccIsn't the ACL default value supposed to supersede the "standard" permissions? https://gist.github.com/2called-chaos/310768aa10929fed0f1f85405f3157b8 Otherwise what would be the point of per-group defaults?15:16
patdk-lapsoahccc, did you set umask before you started the program?15:29
soahcccpatdk-lap: I didn't modify umask but when I create a directory under that user manually it has the correct permissions so I figured it's the process?15:33
soahcccpatdk-lap: and the umask is 0002 so group should get 7 for directories which it does when I mkdir manually. Or do i have a misunderstanding here?15:38
soahcccpatdk-lap: Enabling ACLs on the filesystem is a start :D Now it tells me that the effective permission is r--15:55
soahcccSo I basically got it working except for the fact that newly created folders get a mask of r-- but the default:mask of the parent is rwx16:11
soahcccGosh this makes no sense, I just add a cron job, ACL problem solved =)16:36
krt_Can someone explain where to add a favicon.ico using nginx?19:26

tomreynsoahccc: you could use incron instead. or do the right thing and file a bug report.20:53
rizonzwill the php version from now in be in /etc/php instead of /etc/phpX ?20:59
patdk-lapI thought it was in /etc/php/x.y21:00
rizonzyes21:00
rizonzbut 5 was like /etc/phpX21:00
bekksrizonz: Depending on the php devs, it may change again.21:03
rizonzbekks: I think the Ubuntu packagers ;)21:03
patdk-lapdebian21:05
rizonzare they still not packaging themself ?21:07
patdk-lap why would they?21:07
rizonzbecause you want to be beter then Debian ?21:07
patdk-lapubuntu is downstream of debian21:07
rizonz*better21:07
rizonzbut not fully21:07
patdk-lapwell, lets see, upstart was a ubuntu thing, but they dropped that since debian went systemd21:08
kaffienhow do you go about setting up a l2tp client connection in ubuntu?21:42
kaffieni installed strongswan but i'm not seeing any other config options for vpn other than openvpn and import a file.21:43
patdk-lapheh?21:43
patdk-lapwhat are you talking about seeing config options21:43
kaffienWhen using network manager to add connection the only options available for VPN  are openvpn and import connection settings.21:56

marchellyHi, I'm doing do-release-upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 like aptitude update; aptitude upgrade and do-release-upgrade. Everything went fine and after reboot I'm not able to ssh the server but it's pingable and only FTP port is active, I can connect with FTP user. I can use rescue mode from hosting and after chroot to my working env I'm doing lsb_release -a and it shows me 14.04. So now I know that server boots and even vsftpd starts, but nothing else22:27
marchelly. How should I debug this? What actions to do?22:27
cncr04sit should have started a ssh on a different port just for this case22:28
cncr04sit would have told you what the port was, at least it did for me22:29
SuperLagIs there a simple way to only keep 2 kernels on a box?22:29
marchellycncr04s, nmap tellingme that only 21 port is running and I'm able to ftp it withnormaluser22:29
cncr04sthen you need physical access22:34
marchellycncr04s, Looks like i'm not able to get it, just rescue mode and chroot22:35
cncr04sI don't know then. never do a release upgrade without having access to the physical console.22:39
cncr04sor virtual console in the case of vm's22:40
marchellycncr04s, but as the server reboots and became pingable and even vsftpd is started it could be some init scripts problems, My working distro is not ubunu so I even do not know how to debug this22:42
cncr04sif you don't have some sort of shell or way to manipulate the filesytem, your pretty much boned.22:45
marchellycncr04s, just from rescue mode and chroot. actually I have access tofile systemright now using the method22:50
cncr04swell mount the filesystem and look at the logs in /var/log anc check why ssh isnt running23:01
marchellycncr04s, nothing there, the only files updated in last boot were under /var/log/upstart/ directory but nothingthat I can determine as useful there23:19
cncr04ssyslog would usually say something23:22
cncr04smake your crontab run ssh too might yeild something23:22
marchellycncr04s, that's nice idea but I'm not sure cron is runnig there :) I even can't understand how vsftpd starts.23:26
marchellycncr04s, there are no fresh syslog logs. even dmesg is old23:27
marchellyonly upstart folder contains fresh files23:27
cncr04sthen its broken23:31
cncr04shope you got backups23:31
marchellysure, I have backups, I'm actually about to start fresh install and them restore from backups23:33
marchelly*then23:33
