ahasenackkstenerud: have you tried the setup script with the packages from timo's ppa?01:41
ahasenackkstenerud: I got that thing to crash in many different ways, this is just one that we are trying to fix :)01:41
caliculkahasenack, is there any way (besides building from source) to possibly add it back in?01:58
caliculkotherwise, ill open up a bug ticket because something is off01:58
ahasenackI think a bug is in order02:07
ahasenackand probably a debian one as well02:07
ahasenackas we take the samba package mostly from them, just adding some touches02:08
ahasenackI did a quick search in their bug database, and found nothing about zfs in the samba package02:09
ahasenackcaliculk: can you elaborate on what starts working once this module is in place?02:09
ahasenackit's best to elaborate in the bug, though02:10
sarnoldahasenack: zfs doesn't use the posix-ish acls that most of linux uses, they use the nfsv4 acls instead02:12
sarnoldahasenack: this module looks like it's a way for samba to use the nfsv4 acls on zfs backed storage rather than the posix acls that might have worked elsewhere02:12
caliculksure, but i dont think that is any reason to exclude the module. it should be up to the sysadmin to enable or disabke the module in daily use02:20
caliculkive spent three days trying to figure this out so i am glad im not insane when looking at this and it wasnt some simple fix lol02:25
caliculksorry about grammar, dont have autocorrecton this device02:25

caliculkIs this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug supposed to create a bug or link to a wiki, because the "Report a bug" text is really deceiving and not cool if it is supposed to link to a wiki.03:52
caliculkI am trying to launch this from here fwiw: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu03:52
caliculkI keep getting forwarded to this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs) page when I click that +filebug link03:54
sarnoldcaliculk: ugh :/04:31
sarnoldI thought that thing had some intelligence to only redirect you once04:31
caliculkNope :/ just keeps doing it.04:31
sarnoldcaliculk: how about this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+filebug04:31
caliculkNot sure if you are in #ubuntu but you can see my complaints there but... ultimately, it should be called "how to file a bug" not, "file a bug".04:31
caliculkYeah, I eventually found that... I filed the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/178877604:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1788776 in samba (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 18.04 samba/samb-vfs-module not compiled/built --with-acl-support or zfsacl vfs module" [Undecided,New]04:32
sarnoldoh good04:32
caliculkBut it took me more then ten minutes, which is unreasonable. :D04:32
caliculkThere should also be a section in the wiki on how to file a bug via the web interface properly, not via the CLI interface. :)04:33
sarnoldbeautiful bug report though :)04:33
caliculkYeah except the formatting... is there a way to put that into code blocks or something so it isn't just plain text?04:33
sarnoldnope :(04:34
caliculkWell... thats not helpful either haha04:34
sarnoldhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug?no-redirect04:39
sarnoldthere we go04:39
sarnoldI finally found the thing04:39
caliculkSee that took too long haha :D04:41
sarnoldYES04:42
sarnoldyes it did :)04:42
caliculkFor what it is worth, I didn't mention the lack of --with-acl-support in smbd -b, but that is also an issue, and I am not sure if that is why the zfsacl is not being included, but if it is supposed to be enabled by default (according to samba dev/helper - someone that wiki edit rights - it is) then I don't see why it is also being turned off when building the package. That also seems like a bug.04:42
caliculkBut, I put them in the same bug report because it seems like they are linked.04:43
caliculkWhich apparently, breaks rule #8 :D04:43
sarnoldcaliculk: nono, this is perfect04:44
sarnoldcaliculk: it *might8 be related, you spotted it, and mention it as a possibility04:44
sarnoldmaybe it is, maybe it isn't, but if it's related it might save someone else an afternoon04:44
caliculkI also need to stop my run on sentences in here.04:44
sarnold(hopefully half an hour, but you know how things go)04:45
caliculkConsidering it took me three freaking days to finally realize that ubuntu was the cause. I even tried upgradeing to a PPA with 4.8.4 but that completely broke samba. :/04:45
caliculkSpeaking of which, how can I close this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logwatch/+bug/1010625 Because... I don't think this is going to be worked on any longer. :D04:46

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1783129 in livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) "Only "main" component enabled after install" [High,In progress]11:19
blackflowsounds like feature, not a bug :)11:19
ahasenacklet's call it a regression then :)11:21
ahasenackthe other components are not even listed for you to uncomment11:21
blackflowyeah I was just kidding a bit ;)11:24
l4m8d4Hello there, I installed a basic bionic server with debootstrap for an nspawn container. Now I noticed that there are no manpages. Should I install the basic server task? Manpages seem a to be a basic thing, I thought even debootstrap would install that12:04
l4m8d4Maybe most people would not use a container that way, but I was hoping to use the container pretty much as a normal system, for example with sshd, so for a normal working environment it would be nice to have the manpages12:06
zenirc369I'm receiving the error " multipathd: uevent trigger error" in syslog12:11
zenirc369any inputs on how to resolve it12:11
* ahasenack doesn't know12:26
blackflowl4m8d4: it's pulled in by ubuntu-standard. I usually add ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard for debootstrap'd installations12:33
blackflowl4m8d4: question is, do you really need that in the nspawn'd container12:36
l4m8d4blackflow: I'd like to have it since I am often ssh'd into it and then in need of manpages for a program that is maybe only installed there12:38
blackflowl4m8d4: you can just install "manpages" package then. looking at my installation scripts now, I'm actually not pulling in ubuntu-standard, only -minimal. -standard has some overhead I don't need.12:39
ahasenackcpaelzer: do you know if it's ok/common for a python package to depend on *both* python3.6 and python3.7?12:45
blackflowahasenack: doesn't sound right12:48
l4m8d4blackflow: Okay, ubuntu-minimal was already installed by default, ubuntu-standard was not, it seems I will install ubuntu-standard, since it has the manpages, bash-completion, the relase upgrader and other things12:53
l4m8d4Thanks for the usggestion12:53
l4m8d4I see what you mean though, with things like telnet, rsync etc. that not everyone needs it has a fair amount of "bloat" in it12:53
blackflowright.12:54
l4m8d4Or stuff like ntfs-3g or hdparm, which im definitely not gonna use, but yeah, I guess 100mb more or less won't matter12:56
blackflowthose are recommended though, not hard deps12:58
l4m8d4Right, I would install it that way, though, because I want some of the recommended ones^^13:01
blackflowyou can always pull in those directly. you don't have to install ubuntu-*  metapackages13:01
blackflowGuys, question. with apt-daily.timer/service now being systemd timer/service, what's recommended for mailing lists of available upgrades, still apticron?13:11
kstenerudahasenack: The problem is that if any function returns a status other than OK, it calls abort(). In this case, if it can't find any one of the config files it looks for, it crashes. There might be other ways in which the init function returns a bad status as well :/13:57
kstenerudSo we can't be sure what is triggering for him specifically. I ca nask him what his syslog says, which could give a clue (it does spit out syslogs for configs it couldn't find)13:58
kstenerudAlso, calling named-pkcs11 without the -f -u bind gets "further" in that it seems to generate some configs that it wouldn't with those arguments present, such that it gets a little further if you call it alone first (get a crash) and then with the arguments (crash in a different place)13:59
ahasenacksounds fragile :(14:01
kstenerudYeah :(14:01
kstenerudEvery RUNTIME_CHECK() and PK11_FATALCHECK() in the code is a return code test that calls abort() if it doesn't like it. And there are LOTS of those14:02
ahasenacksecurity by fear14:03

kstenerudgrep -r RUNTIME_CHECK *|wc -l14:03

kstenerudyes14:04
ahasenackok, do you have a ppa of your own?14:04

DammitJimif I want to remove custom services on Ubuntu 14, what do you guys think I should do?14:42
DammitJimI was looking at running:14:43
DammitJim1) sudo service <servicename> stop14:43
DammitJim2) sudo update-rc.d -f <servicename> remove14:44
DammitJim3) rm /etc/init.d/<servicename>14:44
DammitJim4) rm -R /var/lib/<servicename>14:44
DammitJimam I missing something else?14:44
sdezielDammitJim: depends which service it is, but 1) followed by 2) would work for system V services14:45
sdezielDammitJim: for upstart managed services, this would be a little different14:45
DammitJimyeah, this is not systemd14:45
DammitJimUbuntu 14.04 LTS14:45
sdezielDammitJim: correct, 14.04 used upstart14:45
sdeziels/used/uses/14:46
DammitJimright... so, are you saying I need to do something different because it's upstart?14:46
RoyKDammitJim: uninstalling those services with apt will probably do this easy for you14:49
RoyKDammitJim: and keep in mind that 14.04 won't be supported much longer - it'd be a good idea to upgrade soon14:49
DammitJimRoyK, they are custom14:50
DammitJimlike I created multiple instances of tomcat14:50
DammitJimRoyK, yes, that's part of the upgrade... I don't want to have to worry about these services that have been phased out14:51
DammitJimwhen I go to 18.04 LTS14:51
sdezielDammitJim: for upstart driven service, you'd do: sudo service $SVC stop; echo manual | sudo tee -a /etc/init/$SVC.override14:51
RoyKalso, keep in mind that it may be quicker to just install 18.04 on a new machine and then migrate the stuff fro the old one14:51
DammitJimah, interesting... what does the echo manual do?14:51
RoyKquicker and indeed cleaner14:51
DammitJimRoyK, yes!14:52
DammitJimsdeziel, I was going to just delete that file in /etc/init.d14:52
DammitJimwait, /etc/init ? let me look14:53
DammitJimthat service doesn't exist in /etc/init for some reason14:53
RoyKDammitJim: with sysv scripts, /etc/init.d is just a place to put the scripts and then have the system symlink to them from /etc/rcX.d where X is the run level (normally 2 on 14.04 IIRC)14:54
DammitJimoh ok, so I probably need to remove those symlinks14:54
RoyKyes14:54
RoyKupdate-rc.d does just that14:55

caliculkahasenack, you ended up disconnecting yesterday after the netsplit, to sum up what the zfsacl module does, it provides interoperability between acls on linux, zfs, and nsf. ZFS uses nsfv4 acls not posix type stuff. But I ultimately believe it to be a bug, so: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/178877617:21
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1788776 in samba (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 18.04 samba/samb-vfs-module not compiled/built --with-acl-support or zfsacl vfs module" [Undecided,New]17:21
ahasenackI saw it, thanks17:21
ahasenackso even when you run zfs set acltype=posixacl you need that vfs module?17:22
caliculkThats what I had when running freenas, and the vfs module was enabled.17:22
caliculkYou can easily still access shares when not running the vfs module, but it isn't full compatibility.17:23
ahasenackeven with acltype=posixacl?17:23
caliculkI believe so, because extended attributes would still apply: "To obtain the best performance when setting posixacl users are strongly encouraged to set the xattr=sa property"17:25
ahasenackthat's ok, it's a performance tip17:27
ahasenackI'm trying to understand if a configuration change, like setting acltype=posixacl, isn't enough to fix the issue, or if a new module is really needed17:27
ahasenackI also don't understand how nfsv4acls intersect with samba, but I can read about that17:27
ahasenackkstenerud: ok, fixed. freeipa really wants $(hostname) (and not just $(hostname -f) to return the fqdn17:28
ahasenackit used to check for that iirc, but anyway17:28
caliculkThat I can't answer completely, I am not knowledgeable enough to answer that. :/ I just know from the documentation I have been reading, it appears that the module is necessary/useful for ZFS, but, by default it is not available (afaict)17:28
ahasenackso you haven't seen issues yet without it? I assume you have a samba deployment exporting a share that sits on zfs17:29
caliculkCorrect, it's just whether I enable or disable that module it becomes an issue. Granted, I haven't used the share that much since I don't want to write or do anything with it until I had gotten to the bottom of why the module was missing first.17:30
caliculkI still have an entire backup to transfer back on the zfs filesystem that hasn't been completed yet either until I could confirm 100%17:30
ahasenackok, getting an actual scenario where the module fixes a problem will help to determine how useful it is17:31
ahasenackoh, samba migrated17:31
ahasenackhappy dance17:31
ahasenackThis bug was fixed in the package samba - 2:4.8.4+dfsg-2ubuntu117:32
kstenerudnice!17:32
caliculkHm, I tried upgrading to 4.8.4 via a PPA (since 4.8.4 is not officially available on 18.04.1, and I don't feel comfortable installing samba from source), did not run into much luck getting it to start.17:34
caliculkUnless I missed something, I couldn't find it in a specific distro list on any of the additional options "verses" available.17:35
ahasenackit just landed in cosmic, not 18.04.x17:36
ahasenackbionic won't get it, since it's a new major version17:36
caliculkYeah :/17:36
caliculkI guess it could be available in backports eventually17:37
caliculkBut... backports17:37
caliculkI guess, best thing to do would be to file an issue here then? https://launchpad.net/bionic-backports ?17:41
ahasenackyou can try, I don't know how responsive backports are17:44
ahasenackI dealt with one last year, and had to convert it to an SRU instead, which was a lot of work, but was done at least17:45
ahasenackfor cosmic, there may still be time. We just entered feature freeze (a few hours ago), so a new module would be a new feature and would have to be explained carefully17:45
ahasenackthat's why I need that scenario of what this module is fixing17:45
ahasenackto be able to get a "feature freeze exception", if it's worth it17:45
ahasenackspecially since it would add to our delta with debian, who is not shipping that module either as far as I can tell17:46
caliculkWell, unfortunately, I can't get someone in #samba to explain to me in a more context aware scenario (posted the bug report there asking for guidance). I have reached out to some other people I know that are running ZFS on Ubuntu, to see if they could assist as well. But haven't heard back yet.17:47
ahasenackok17:47
ahasenackyeah, samba in debian doesn't have a zfs module either, as expected17:51
ahasenackjsut checked17:51
ahasenackkstenerud: ok, hm, the freeipa installation finished out of the box now, using cosmic's bind917:53
ahasenackI'll comment in the bug17:54

ahasenackoh well, can test the fix17:55
ahasenackkstenerud: btw, you skipped a release number again in your versioning of your bind9 package in the ppa17:56
ahasenackyou have -3ubuntu3~ppa1 when the cosmic package is 3ubuntu117:57
caliculkI have to go for now, but I will update you on if I hear back from anyone about the module and it's specific benefits. My environment may just not be sufficient (use ubuntu-server in a one person apartment) to test whether the acl has a huge advantage with that enabled.17:59
ahasenackok, thanks for checking18:01
ahasenackI'm a zfs user myself, and I also have a home-built NAS with samba on top of zfs18:01
ahasenackbut just one user18:02
ahasenackthat doesn't really exercise ACLs :)18:02
caliculkThe best I can tell it MAY help with Volume Shadow Service, but, yeah... sounds good.18:03
ahasenackkstenerud: yeah, the patch worked18:09
ahasenackno crash this time18:09
kstenerudahasenack: Can you tell me how you configured the vm running freeipa? I can't seem to get it onto any accessible network :/19:13
ahasenackkstenerud: the vm itself is using the default libvirt network, 192.168.122.0/2419:14
ahasenackit's on virbr0 iirc19:14
kstenerudhmm yeah that's the same I'm running. Odd19:14
ahasenackkstenerud: it's a nat'ed network, and it has dhcp19:14
ahasenackok19:14
ahasenackthen /etc/hostname has an fqdn, with 3 "pieces"19:14
ahasenackI called it cosmic-freeipa.example.com19:14
ahasenackI also added that name to /etc/hosts with the real ip the vm got, not 127.0.x.x19:14
ahasenackthen I called ipa-server-install with that dns option to allow zone overlap, you can find it with --help19:15
ahasenack"hostname" has to return the fqdn (that's how freeipa likes it), as does "hostname -f"19:15
ahasenackoh, and I rebooted after fixing the hostname like this19:15
kstenerudMy eth0 on the vm isn't getting an IP address19:16
ahasenackthat would be a problem :)19:16
ahasenackcheck /etc/netplan/*19:16
ahasenackah, that's the other thing I did, I changed that to static, just to avoid surprises19:16

ahasenackwhere is the vm running?19:17
kstenerudI have it under virt-manager. There's no edit menu19:18
ahasenackit's in virt-manager's window, not the vm window19:18
kstenerudok so virtual network default has a dhcp range19:19
kstenerud192.168.122.x19:19
ahasenackwell, try just running dhclient as root in the vm, see if it grabs an ip19:20
ahasenackif it does, then it's a centos configuration issue19:20
ahasenackalso, check the nic in the vm window19:20
ahasenackkstenerud: do that first actually ^19:21
ahasenacksee if it's connected to the network you expect19:21
kstenerudoh hah ok running dhclient manually works :P19:21
kstenerudguess the minimal install is REALLY minimal19:21
ahasenacksurprising, but could be19:21
Jester316Hello19:25
Jester316I am (possibly) having some RAM difficulties19:26
Jester316I am running a home server with a quad core 3rd gen intel cpu with 4gb of ram19:26
Jester316My 'physical memory usage' is quite frequently very high and I feel like downloads and bash speed over ssh slows down19:27
Jester316the thing is, my 'real memory' is under control', surprisingly under 1gb of use19:27
dpb1what does free -m show19:28
dpb1!pastebinit | Jester31619:28
ubottuJester316: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit19:28
Jester316dpb1, https://pastebin.com/WyxHPLuk19:29
Jester316Right now it's alright19:30
Jester316I'm not actually doing much, but yesterday when I was downloading and streaming a movie over local network, the stream would shut off, download speed was lower than usual and bash over ssh was sluggish19:31
Jester316I did have a lot of cache at that point and clearing it improved everything, as well as rebooting, which I did the first time round19:32

blackflowthat looks like a totally underutilized memory.19:33
Jester316hmmm19:34
blackflowphysical mem will always be near fully used. unused physical memory is wasted memory.19:34
blackflowsee https://www.linuxatemyram.com/19:34
blackflowthe caches are volatile. if an app allocates memory for its used, the kernel will happily drop the caches and give that space to the app. also, streaming issues you mention, including laggy ssh, is not indicative of memory issues, but of network issues.19:35
Jester316alright, thanks blackflow19:36
Jester316that was a concise and informative link, good read19:36
Jester316I'll come back when/if I experience sluggishness again without a reason19:37
Jester316good day!19:37
blackflowgood luck19:37

caliculkahasenack, the person that I was talking to got back to me. As far as I can tell the biggest benefit is to emulate the Windows permission set properly with the vfs module and the  --with-acl-support options.22:42
caliculkThat seems to be the biggest downside (so for a person in a 100+ company, it might make more sense) but for a one person home use, obviously it would not. However, if I were to share this out with my roommates, then it would make sense to want to include the zfsacl permission set.22:43
caliculkBasically, it just provides proper windows support with zfs.22:45
caliculkI am not sure if that is reason enough to ask for a feature freeze exception though22:46
JanCit's probably useful to know if including it can somehow break existing systems22:52
JanC(that's usually an important factor for freeze exceptions)22:53
caliculkI don't believe it would, but I am not sure in the slightest on where to begin on testing that to get this included,.22:54
caliculkThough the --with-acl-support option on Samba is not specific to ZFS, it doesn't allow samba to play nicely with ext4 or other filesystems either.22:55
caliculkBasiclly, if I use FreeNAS (where this module is working and existing), the biggest plus is that Samba can then expose those shares with ACLs that Windows understands without any additional work required.22:56
