[00:00] xz: after the apt-get update you can run foreign_packages again and should get to see way less 'newer than version in archive' packages - i hope. [00:02] tomreyn: it still lists all packages (945), however they are all 'uptodate' now [00:03] tomreyn: and ia32-libs-multiarch says 'no available version in archive'. I think the whole 'multiarch' concept got reworked and it's implemented differently these days [00:05] xz: sounds like a fresh install might be more effective! [00:05] xz: yes that's right. you could just pirpe the output to "grep -v 'uptodate$' then [00:07] TJ-: it's a Jenkins slave that's normally used for the project and I don't want to break everything. I'm talking about things like hostname, ip address, etc. [00:07] TJ-: If I screw up the machine might as well be dead for weeks [00:09] xz: yeah, I have a procedure for such things. I do a debootstrap minimal install into a chroot alongside the running OS, then I copy in just the config files under /etc/, then install the package that uses that so it's post-install script handles updating the config file. Moving over things like /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname and so on is really simple too. [00:11] TJ-: also, that box has been around for a long time and I don't know exactly what's been run on it and what kind of configs/apps were used. It's a mess. Once I get a grasp of what's going on, I will try to do everything right way. For now I just want to keep status-quo and builds running + upgrade to 16.04 [00:12] TJ-: but I would be glad to learn your process, I would definitely want to use it one day [00:12] tomreyn: so I'm left with ia32-libs-multiarch, linux-image-3.2.0.60-generic and linux-image-3.2.0.69-generic [00:12] tomreyn: the -generic kernels come from desktop version, don't they? [00:13] xz: by now they are identical for desktops and servers, i'm not sure whent his started [00:13] tomreyn: for ia32-libs I can install them eventually on 16.04 (or whatever is the package name on 16.04, I remember it's changed) [00:14] tomreyn: I think I'm ready for do-release-upgrade then [00:15] i agree [00:19] xz: https://askubuntu.com/questions/107230/what-happened-to-the-ia32-libs-package === Amm0n| is now known as Amm0n [00:21] tomreyn: yeah, I will fix these packages once I'm fully set on 16.04 [00:21] tomreyn: as I understand first upgrade will take me to 14.04 [00:22] do-release-upgrade listed 4 problematic packages, libkms1, libsnmp15, maas-provision and maas-provision-common === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [00:28] xz: yes, it should upgrade to 14.04 first, then the next run should bringt you to 16.04. i'm not into the MAAS packages. libkms1 sounds like kernel mode switching, which is now default, you may no longer need it (there is no such package in 16.04). libsnmp15 is no more, there is now (16.04) libsnmp30 [00:29] 14,04 also has libsnmp30 [00:29] tomreyn: I took note of all packages, will carry on the update. Once on 16.04 then I will make sure they have respective versions installed [00:30] i would feel more safe doing a reinstall, and put data back from the backup. [00:30] and much fster too [00:30] i agree. [00:31] oerheks: I prefer a separated home, phy partition o LVM [00:31] oerheks: yeah, but if I break stuff then other people cannot build [00:31] xz: you may need to find out why libsnmp15 was installed. if there's unpackaged software on this system which depended on it, you'll need to (at the very least) rebuild it. [00:31] oerheks: there are jenkins jobs that do 'sudo' stuff and other hacks [00:31] hence the huge switch upstart > systemd [00:32] tomreyn: upgrade is already going, too late : [00:33] tomreyn: I have a gut feeling that libsnmp was for jenkins itself [00:34] tomreyn: as its listed as jenkins dependency [00:36] Can someone help me download wireshark for 16.04? I typed in "apt-get install wireshark" and it didn't work [00:36] xz: i manage a system using jenkins from http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian-stable on 16.04, it does not have this dependency. [00:37] CuriousMind_: does the system have the "universe" repository pocket enabled? [00:38] CuriousMind_: "did not work" is insufficient to analyze this issue. but i can guess that you need to add 'sudo' in front of this command line [00:38] !info wireshark [00:38] wireshark (source: wireshark): network traffic analyzer - meta-package. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.6+g32dac6a-2ubuntu0.17.04 (zesty), package size 5 kB, installed size 58 kB [00:39] TJ-: how can I check if the system has the universe repository pocket enabled? [00:40] tomreyn: Ok I understand one second [00:40] oerheks: thanks === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [00:40] CuriousMind_: software-properties-gtk [00:41] tomreyn: oh, the dependency I found was on how to set up jenkins for specific project. I will see after the update if anything breaks then. [00:41] neyder: typed it in [00:41] CuriousMind_: dash [00:41] neyder: what does this command do? [00:41] CuriousMind_: just look for software origins [00:42] CuriousMind_: I do alt+f2 to run that command [00:42] neyder: I enter the command in terminal and a window popped up [00:42] neyder: Ok I see [00:42] neyder: why is the purpose of this? [00:42] CuriousMind_: that right , now you can check if universe is enabled [00:43] neyder: Oh I see ok [00:43] neyder: I'm noob to linux so help please [00:43] neyder: there are 6 tabs within this window [00:44] neyder: ubuntu software, other software, updates, authentication, additional drivers, developer options [00:44] CuriousMind_: thats ok, the first ta, shows 4 checkbox, for main universe restricted multiverse, all should be enabled [00:45] neyder: that is correct, all the checkboxes are enabled. What about the fifth box which says source code? [00:45] CuriousMind_: it's not needed at all [00:45] CuriousMind_: so first back to terminal and first `sudo apt update` [00:46] neyder: I see and ok [00:46] neyder: and what does this do? [00:47] CuriousMind_: this *updates* the database of software repositories , and what software is available to install/upgrade [00:48] neyder: Ok I see [00:48] anyone awake at this hour ? [00:48] neyder: so where is the database? What does it look like? [00:48] clyp: many [00:49] last time I was in a chat room was back in the early 2000s on yahoo chat this brings back memories [00:49] CuriousMind_: forgot about that, apt is what you use to install/update/upgrade it work with that database === Schnabel1 is now known as Schnabeltierchen [00:50] clyp: so welcome [00:50] thank you [00:50] here hoping to get a little understanding on ubuntu [00:51] neyder: got it. Ok so the last sentence in the terminal says "136 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them. [00:51] started learning it in college and I had a little knowledge of it before hand but what he has us doing is straight forward but confusing [00:51] clyp, ask away most are willing to help [00:51] clyp: I can relate, I know the feeling [00:53] I'm at a loss with changing permissions like i get that r is read and w is write and x is executable [00:53] started learning Ubuntu of my own volition back in 2006, now I start a job as a sysAdmin on Monday. [00:53] what is it you're doing with the package upgrader ? [00:53] CuriousMind_: so i think you can *upgrade* and install wireshark too [00:53] congrats that's good news [00:54] Greeley: nice, congrats [00:54] Greeley: hooray! \o/ [00:54] clyp: I can't tell you. I am just following the instructions [00:54] thanks guys ^.^ [00:54] clyp: Oh, the purpose is to be able to install a software that I need [00:54] neyder: Ok so do the command again right? "apt-get install wireshark"? [00:55] would just be apt-get install [00:55] assuming you're in root [00:55] if not sudo before the comamnd [00:55] CuriousMind_: run `sudo apt install wireshark` an then you should `sudo apt upgrade` [00:55] clyp: got it, thanks [00:55] neyder: got it, thanks [00:56] is wireshark not for hacking wifi ? [00:56] CuriousMind_, make sure you have a supported wifi chipset/driver https://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/WLAN#Linux [00:56] pretty sure that's built into Kali [00:56] is for network analyzing [00:56] aaah [00:56] Greeley #lopsa-lounge for you then. They used to have a better topic, a link to some blogpost along the ligns of "Are you working for a bdenign dictatorshi?" :) [00:56] I am using wireshark for my homework in computer networking, it's due tomorrow [00:57] clyp: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions + https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_permissions_and_attributes . A good place to start . [00:57] (typos galore) [00:57] only started my HNC a few weeks ago only began to start talking about nics [00:57] oerheks: I am sorry, what is it that you are telling me [00:57] CuriousMind_, not all wifi devices / drivers support wireshark [00:58] monitor mode, that is [00:58] oerheks: ok I understand that [00:58] aloo_shu not sure currently I work at the airport but my new job seems pretty cool, always willing to do things differently if it works [00:59] oerheks: ok checking the website out now, thank you [00:59] how would i change the permissions for file.c to rw-rw-r-- and change permissions from file.data to rwxr----- ? [00:59] Greeley don't give too much for my channel recommendation, there isn't even a link to lopsa homepage anymore. le [00:59] clyp: see "man chmod" for the command details [01:00] league of prof. sys admins it stood for, 'case u want 2 google [01:00] I was in there and it got me lost [01:00] file.c you would chmod 664 and file.data 740 [01:01] as cool as that sounds I dunno what you just said [01:01] clyp: OK, well, there are 3 sets of 3 values. a set each for (u)ser, (g)roup, and (o)thers, and for each set three operations (r)read, (w)rite, and e(x)ecute [01:01] yeah I get that [01:02] clyp: so for your first: "chmod u=rw,g=rw,o=r file.c" [01:02] so instead of using the rwx you can use numerical notation, first number is owner, than group, then other users [01:02] aaaah [01:02] neyder: package configuration - "dumpcap can be installed in a way that allows members of the "wireshark" system group to capture packets...Should non-superusers be able to capture packets?" [01:02] prefer no [01:02] CuriousMind_: prefer no [01:02] tomreyn: I'm on 14.04.5 now! Upgraded and booted with no problems whatsoever [01:02] neyder: ok thank you [01:03] clyp: but those r,w,x represent bits being set, so you could do "chmod 664 file.c" to achieve the same thing [01:03] I dont get what chmod 664 file.c is [01:03] clyp: because (r) = bit 2 = 4, (w) = bit 1 = 2, (o) = bit 0 = 1 [01:04] Ubuntu 17.10 is moving to Wayland/GNOME 3, but can we upgrade and still keep Unity/X.Org without adding the other desktop env? [01:04] clyp: means rw-rw-r-- for your file [01:04] clyp: the read-write-execute bitmap of 3 bits, and there's a map for each permission: user, group,others [01:05] I feel stupid I know what you guys are saying but when I put it to terminal it makes no sense [01:05] clyp: in neyder's example above, the 1st three positions are for user, the 2nd set of three for group, and the last three for 'others' [01:05] yeah I get that [01:05] clyp: do some "ls -l" on directories and look at the various permissions files have [01:05] iAnonGuy, no, wayland will be default [01:06] TJ-: r→4 | w→2 | x→1 [01:06] clyp: executables will have the 'x' permission, directories use 'x' to indicate you can navigate through them (descend is the word often used) [01:06] Ah okay. Will have to switch to a different distro since my laptop goes from "wow, such performance!" to "well... this is unusable" with wayland [01:06] neyder: installed and upgraded [01:06] neyder: right, that's what I said above [01:06] we haven't covered the executable side of things yet just the read and write I'm trying to learn [01:06] iAnonGuy, good luck then, at some point they all will switch [01:07] CuriousMind_: run wireshark with sudo, or add your user to group wireshark [01:07] There's always Windows 10 :-/ [01:07] I get what the r w and x are just dunno how to change the permissions that's all [01:07] clyp: which brings you back to chmod :) [01:08] iAnonGuy: there will be always xubuntu lubuntu, just install (x/l)ubuntu-desktop and remove ubuntu-desktop [01:08] clyp, yep chmod is the command to "change mode" [01:08] aaaah now I get you [01:09] neyder, would that solve his wayland question ? [01:09] neyder: "sudo wireshark" to run the program? [01:09] clyp: chmod and chown are often used together to change both permissions and ownership of files [01:09] neyder: can you teach me how to add my user to the group wireshark? [01:09] clyp: with chmod r w x you use to add + or del - some especific permission , with number 644 yo put *that permission* [01:09] I'm reading about chown right now but it's not said anything about chmod [01:10] clyp: no, they're often used together but they do different operations [01:10] oerheks: wayland is default for ubuntu-desktop, lubuntu and xubuntu teams has its own agendas [01:10] oerheks: I am checking out this page about the drivers and stuff but I don't really understand a thing [01:11] i'll check that [01:11] CuriousMind_: yup run that, and you can check in config → users → groups to do that [01:11] CuriousMind_, usermod -G group username [01:11] clyp: chown changes owner not permissions [01:11] neyder: thank you very much, I appreciate the help [01:11] Greeley: thank you [01:12] no prob just make sure the G is capital [01:12] chmod u+rwx file.c << like so ? [01:12] Greeley: will do. By the way "usermod -G group ?" right? [01:12] clyp: yes, like that [01:13] Curiousmind_ yup so usermod -G wireshark username [01:13] clyp something like this for taking it in in bits: http://it-ebooks.info/book/5690/ [01:13] see that's what I was trying to get [01:13] got it, thank you guys [01:13] * neyder afk [01:14] it says buy but there is no price [01:15] £25 from amazon I'm sure we get this material free in our course [01:15] no download? [01:15] nope purchase only [01:15] things change.. [01:15] I have v.2 as pdf [01:15] it's probably free somewhere, allegedly [01:16] Downloading is temporarily unavailable! [01:16] anyone know why this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/25589670/ [01:17] usermod: group 'wireshark' does not exist [01:17] oaulakh, you don't have node in your path [01:17] this is after I did usermod -G wireshark username [01:18] how to do it? [01:18] you can ddownload the pdf free here.... ( http://inf.ocs.ku.ac.th/Download/Wiley.Linux.Command.Line.and.Shell.Scripting.Bible.May.2008.pdf ) [01:18] Greeley, how can i do it? [01:19] you can create a symlink using this "ls -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node [01:19] I did "sudo wireshark" and the program opened but I got an error [01:19] ignore that [01:19] oaulakh "ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node" [01:19] clyp, please do not post illegal stuff here [01:20] sorry I didn't know it was illegal [01:20] clyp, it's piracy my dude [01:20] Greeley, thanks bro! [01:20] oaulakh, no problem [01:20] its on a free academic website though [01:21] clyp, no way for us to know you posted the direct download link. [01:22] sorry I'll watch what I post [01:22] clyp try it then, it is a good reference. I have 2nd edition already [01:22] aloo_shu, you too, don't post. [01:22] I'm having a read through it just now seems a bit advanced for what I'm studying just now [01:22] illegality was probably what forced the domain I linked to to change [01:23] A window which says " Lua: Error during loading: [string "/usr/share/wireshark/init.lua":44: dofile has been disabled due to running Wireshark as superuser. See https://wiki.wireshark.org/ CaptureSetup/CapturePriviliges for help in running Wireshark as an unprivileged user. " [01:23] any potential problems with conflicts (headers/libraries) installing clang/llvm/lldb on a box with gcc installed? [01:23] That is my error after I ran "sudo wireshark" for the first time [01:23] I'm going to check out the website as it says [01:23] try just typing wireshark without sudo [01:25] clyp: ok so close wireshark, go to terminal and type wireshark w/o sudo? [01:25] yeah [01:25] might not do a thing but worth a try [01:25] I've never really used sudo alwas done installations straight from root [01:26] always* [01:26] clyp: Ok so I got something in terminal which says... [01:26] it's not considered safe you can use sudo -i to get an elevated terminal [01:27] clyp I think I see what you want to do and why permissions matter. Read the instructions for wireshark. It wants a very peculiar setup to run [01:27] i tried to write myself an init.d script but i think i have an error... https://nopaste.linux-dev.org/?1161917 may someone have a look at it? [01:27] CuriousMind_: i get same error, just ignore it. use sudo wireshark to start [01:28] clyp: This is said in red " Void DBusMenuExporterPrivate::addAction(QAction*, int): Already tracking action"" under id 190 " [01:28] I'm sure I'll get around to that as the course progresses [01:28] clyp: This is said in red " Void DBusMenuExporterPrivate::addAction(QAction*, int): Already tracking action"" under id 191 " [01:28] crepinjones: Ok thank you [01:28] clyp: Oh you use wireshark too? [01:29] clyp as far as I remember, there are two parts of the program, and running one with and another one without root privileges is considered te safest. one part will refuse running if wrongly configured, I think the part that should *not* be run as root. the details are on wireshark-s website [01:29] maybe ./wireshark then ? [01:29] aloo_shu, clyp isn't the one trying to run wireshark it's curiousmind_ [01:31] I'm going to start using wireshark, I appreciate the help [01:31] have a read at this... ( https://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges ) this should help you out [01:31] oh, I got confused then. so Greely , somebody tell CuriousMind then, I am out, not my most concentrated day [01:31] clyp: I don't know if I will understand it, but I'll try to take a look at it. Thanks [01:33] aloo_shu I think everything is sorted chatroom got messy [01:34] see how mkdir dir1 dir2 dir3 creates 3 directories is there an easy way to move 3 directories to the 1 with a similar command ? [01:35] i know that mvdir1 would move directory 1 [01:35] sorry for all the beginner questions here [01:36] for tmp in dir1 dir2 dir3; do mv $tmp destdir; done [01:36] thanks [01:37] clyp, you can also use mv -v dir1 dir2 /path/to/destination [01:37] verbose [01:38] I remember verbose from the old windows dos prompt [01:38] yeah just to be sure ;) [01:39] clyp: Ok so I am reading this and from what I understand...I need to run wireshark on an account which can capture [01:39] clyp: I am looking at the "GNU/Linux distributions" section [01:39] I seen that not 100% sure what that means [01:40] clyp: I don't understand but I am trying to. As far as I am concerned, I believe that I could use the software now [01:41] without error ? [01:42] clyp: Didn't try yet, one second [01:42] CuriousMind_, it's strongly advised to capture packets as root and analyze logs as a regular user [01:43] Greeley: I have no idea how to do that, I need help [01:43] I can't click capture in wireshark, it is not working [01:43] "usermod -G group username" isn't working for me [01:44] I'm not sure how to use wireshark either honestly, what exactly are you trying to do with it? [01:45] Wireshark - Can't open recent file "/home/julius/.config/wireshark/recent": Permission denied. [01:45] Greeley: It's for my homework [01:46] curiousMind_ how late are you staying up I'm on mobile now and won't be home for around 2 hours [01:46] curiousmind_ but if you planned on staying up I'd be more than willing to help you [01:47] Greeley: I am going to stay up all night I think because I gotta get this homework done [01:47] Greeley: I really appreciate that you are willing to help me [01:48] curiousmind_ alright for now try "chmod -R 777 /home/Julius/.config/wireshark/recent" [01:48] and try to open it again [01:48] Greeley: Ok I have two questions [01:49] sure [01:49] Greeley: one, what does the command do? [01:49] Greeley: Two, how do you know my name lol? Did I say it? [01:49] CuriousMind Greely I break my word and jump into the middle of the conversation again: from symptoms it looks like wireshark, against recommendation, was doing it's firstrun as root and hence has established the config files in the home directory as owned by root. now, when attempting to run it correctly, it cannot opn the config file [01:49] the command will change the permissions of the recent file to read write execute for all users [01:49] no curious lol you posted the error with your name in it [01:50] Greeley: LOL ok I am sorry [01:50] and correct aloo_shu it was run as root first time [01:50] Greeley: I am so foolish, ok back to the terminal. One second [01:51] you may need to sudo that command, CuriousMind_ if it doesn't work instead of retyping it just run "sudo !!" [01:51] sudo !! runs the previously run command as root [01:52] I feel his pain [01:52] I really do lol [01:52] if only you guys used Ubuntu without systemd I'm probably one of the few who likes systemd [01:53] sysvinit was a pain [01:53] getting int chmod and chown now theres rhood [01:53] Greeley: Ok one second [01:53] It would probably be wisest to delete/rename/move elsewhere the config files and dir of wireshark to force it to write them afresh [01:53] Greeley: cannot access [01:53] Greeley: no such file or directory [01:54] mind walking home through that aloo_shu have to go fuel a plane [01:54] him* not home [01:56] Greeley: What should I do now? It doesn't work [01:57] hes off fueling a plane [01:57] cd /homejulius/.config; mv wireshark wireback [01:57] oh ok no problem === gr33n7007h is now known as al2o3-cr [01:57] aloo_shu: ok thanks [01:57] and start wireshark again. my 2ct === clyp is now known as shug [01:58] my name is registered [01:58] someone registered my name :( [01:58] aloo_shu: wait it worked [01:59] hooray [01:59] aloo_shu: "sudo chmod -R 777 /home/julius/.config/wireshark/recent" I changed the j to lowercase [01:59] aloo_shu: I typed that in and nothing appears after it in the terminal [02:00] I really need to understand this chmod with the numbers after it [02:00] aloo_shu: Should I still follow the commands that you just gave me? [02:00] try it 1st [02:00] shug are you talking to me? [02:00] yeah [02:00] shug: ok no problem [02:00] if it works without using the commands gave you then no need [02:00] plane got pushed back 7 minutes I assume shug is clyp? [02:00] if not [02:01] revert back to the commands posted [02:01] yeah [02:01] CuriousMind no terminal output means the command executed without error. Can you start wireshark now [02:01] ok one second [02:01] << my real name [02:01] aloo_shu: sure [02:01] I'm too old for "internet handles" feels strange [02:02] aloo_shu: This is said in red " Void DBusMenuExporterPrivate::addAction(QAction*, int): Already tracking action"" under id 190 " [02:02] shug: and " Void DBusMenuExporterPrivate::addAction(QAction*, int): Already tracking action"" under id 191 " in terminal [02:02] shug, I've had Greeley for who knows how long. [02:03] I've had clip since msn chat rooms and yahoo chat rooms back in 1996 [02:03] clyp* [02:04] had the email clyp@hotmail.com and some spaniard hacked it and microsoft wont give it back [02:04] !ot | shug [02:04] shug: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [02:04] lets get back to strictly topical here [02:04] what happened there ^^ [02:04] It's a bot, explaining the rules of the channel. [02:05] bazhang triggered it, and he's right. [02:05] CuriousMind normal desktop users start programs through the menu. if you start them from a terminal, the program will output lines about what it is doing, errors that are not so important, etc., to the same terminal. The [02:05] shug this is not the chit chat chennel [02:05] keep it ubuntu or leave ? [02:05] I still can't capture [02:05] shug keep it strictly topical [02:06] me and were on the topic of internet handles [02:06] I get what you mean and I will keep it topical [02:06] shug which has no bearing on ubuntu support whatsoever [02:06] I know [02:06] apologies [02:08] chown changes the ownership to files ? [02:08] chmod allows modification [02:09] shug: Sorry? [02:10] I am watching this video to help me through the process. I am at 1:17 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcLrcnx8umM [02:10] CuriousMind did you follow the flow outlined at wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup ? if yes, my ne apart from the capture program itself needing privileges, your wifi adaper may need some preparation or not even be able to capture, depending on capture mode. [02:10] I have to keep it topical so as I was reading through my sheets I was making sure I had the right understanding of chmod and chown [02:12] aloo_shu: No I don't think so [02:13] aloo_shu: Ok so under "Setting network privileges for dumpcap if your kernel and file system support file capabilities" [02:15] what are the instructions for that case ? probably they are the right ones [02:17] Hello! I need some assistance upgrading from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS via terminal for my ubuntu server [02:18] aloo_shu: 1. Ensure that you have installed the necessary tools, such as the setcap command. [02:18] 2. setcap 'CAP_NET_RAW+eip CAP_NET_ADMIN+eip' /usr/sbin/dumpcap (NOTE: Replace /usr/sbin with /usr/bin in case you receive an error that indicates that dumpcap isn't in /usr/sbin) [02:18] Hey, I have an older computer running ubuntu and I can't seem to remember the password, how do I get in? [02:18] I didn't encrypt the harddrive. [02:19] The guides I found are only for doing so by the graphical tools and I'd rather not have to install a bunch of libraries I don't need and forwarding X over the open internet. ( Even though I'd be doing so with ssh. ) [02:19] CuriousMind setcap should have come with installing through package manager, the way to make sure is [02:19] whereis setcap [02:20] sourceslayer: You do not : Here are easy instructions to reset your password in Ubuntu: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword . [02:20] sorry dumpcap , not setcap (confused) [02:20] Bashing-om: Thank you === NickG365_ is now known as NickG365 [02:21] aloo_shu: I did something different just now [02:21] sourceslayer: :) [02:21] CuriousMind so whereis dumpcap will tell you if dumpcap is installed [02:23] aloo_shu: ok, one second. Before I do that, I did these commands [02:24] aloo_shu: aloo_shu: I did "sudo dpkg-configure wireshark-common" -> a window pops up and I select YES, then I did "sudo adduser $USER wireshark" [02:24] aloo_shu: following this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcLrcnx8umM, 1:17 [02:26] aloo_shu: I did "whereis dumpcap" and I got /usr/bin/dumpcap /usr/share/man/man1/dumpcap.1.gz [02:27] Bashing-om: I get "Authentication token manipulation error" [02:28] the first is the path to the dumpcap binary, which you need to know if you want to change its permissions. The second is dumpcaps manpage. type 'man man' to learn what that means, 'man whereis' if you need to learn what that particular command did.. [02:29] but hopefully and probably all is solved by now [02:30] aloo_shu: Ok I see, thank you. One second please [02:30] aloo_shu: I'm going to get some food be right back [02:31] CuriousMind it's late for me, so I wont promise to stay [02:31] sourceslayer: At what point ? booted in recovery mode, and have reset / to read-write ? [02:34] Bashing-om: Apparently it was booted in read-only, so I ran "mount -o remount,rw /" and apparently it worked [02:35] sourceslayer: :) . [02:35] tomreyn: I have Ubuntu 16.04.3 - it booted [02:42] Bashing-om: Thanks a lot, oodnight [02:42] goodnight [02:44] sourceslayer: NP . Later . [02:56] aloo_shu: I am back [02:57]
