| Jenshae | Hi. I am trying to connect remotely to a Ubuntu server. Between me and it, there is a UTM + Windows domain controller. Currently, I can get into it via Windows RDP -> Win terminal session -> Putty -> SSH. Ideally, I would like to have a graphical session via freerdp. Any config / guides that you can recommend to help? | 12:50 |
| jamespage | coreycb: hey do you have any bionic-proposed updates pending testing? running a regression test now so may as well mark any other bugs pending as tested | 13:10 |
| jamespage | Jenshae: erm well | 13:11 |
| jamespage | Jenshae: ubuntu server does not come with any sort of graphical environment installed by default that you can connect to | 13:11 |
| jamespage | SSH is the default method | 13:12 |
| coreycb | jamespage: no, nothing in particular. if you're also testing queens-proposed there are security updates that need regression testing. | 13:15 |
| jamespage | coreycb: I will be doing the UCA next | 13:16 |
| coreycb | jamespage: great, thanks | 13:16 |
| jamespage | coreycb: np | 13:16 |
| aruns | Hey guys, need some help, working on a dedicated backup server running on Ubuntu 18.04 for a client, and cannot connect to an ethernet interface named ens1f1 - it shows up under ip link show and when I do dmesg | grep 'ens1f1' - but not sure how to proceed. If I try to SSH into the machine, I get the following: nc: getaddrinfo: Servname not supported for ai_socktype | 13:42 |
| aruns | So I presume that I cannot SSH into the machine because it has no network connectivity. | 13:43 |
| aruns | I can bring up the contents of /etc/network/interfaces if needed. | 13:43 |
| avu | aruns: does `ip a` show valid addresses for the interface? | 14:05 |
| aruns | Yes. | 14:08 |
| aruns | A static IP of 192.168.111.25 has been set for the interface. | 14:09 |
| aruns | ip a shows both 192.168.111.25/24 and 192.168.111.202/24 | 14:09 |
| aruns | For the ens1f1 interface. | 14:09 |
| aruns | Does that seem correct? | 14:10 |
| avu | having two different IPs in the same subnet doesn't seem correct, no | 14:14 |
| Ussat | why not ? you can have multiple IP's in same subnet | 14:19 |
| avu | sure, if you do it on purpose and set up the system to know which address to use in which case | 14:22 |
| avu | since aruns only mentioned a static IP being configured, I assumed that the second one didn't happen on purpose which leads me to believe that the configuration of the interface is not reflecting what the user wants to achieve | 14:27 |
| aruns | Yeah, it's a client server as well, they gave us carte blanche to do what we want but also a limited deadline :/ | 14:32 |
| avu | aruns: not sure how that relates. Did you mean to give the machine two different IPs on the same subnet on the same interface? | 14:35 |
| TJ- | Unexpected issue on 18.04 - adding a gretap interface also creates an erspan interface, and then "ip link del XXXX" seems to silently fail for each of the erspan/gretap/gre interfaces that were created. Anyone have experience of this or suggestions on what's going on? | 16:34 |
| Jenshae | jamespage: I did install LXDE and x2goserver, I can connect to it on the LAN. It is routing a connection from a remote site to it that I am struggling with. Is there some sort of config for it to listen to connection from the UTM, etc that I need to do? | 18:16 |
| Jenshae | Oh and on an 18.04 note, I couldn't install it via manual partitioning. I ended up using a desktop persistent USB to use gparted, then I could only install 16.04, upgraded to 18.04 and now things like NetworkManager doesn't work. | 18:18 |
| Jenshae | Can't remember the new thing, some nmap config thing that search results are returning? | 18:19 |
| sarnold | Jenshae: there's some known issues mentioned in the release notes that might be related to your partitioning problem https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#Known_issues | 18:24 |
| Jenshae | sarnold: It was to do with swap space, it kept trying to grab space that I wanted to leave and use in ZFS raid and then it wanted an encrypted space but couldn't mount the partitions I allocated to it after encrypting them. That was raw. | 18:28 |
| Jenshae | I was trying to have Drive 1: 5.5GB for /boot, 10GB for LVM / Raid 5 /root, the rest of the space as a software raid. | 18:29 |
| Jenshae | Drives 2-3, the first partition was LVM swap, then I tried having the first partitions as raw. | 18:30 |
| nacc | 5.5 GB /boot ?? | 18:34 |
| teward | um... that's huge | 18:36 |
| nacc | and a waste of space in general, I'd think | 18:36 |
| === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar | ||
| nacc | a 10GB /root is also ... weird | 18:37 |
| teward | nacc: I can understand a 512MB or 1GB /boot if you don't want to have to autoremove old kernels regularly, but 5GB is obscene :| | 18:38 |
| nacc | teward: agreed | 18:38 |
| Ussat | I do 2GB | 18:41 |
| Ussat | 5 is ...big | 18:41 |
| jelly | I always put a 4GB recovery live .iso in /boot, you don't? | 18:42 |
| * jelly hides | 18:42 | |
| teward | *finds jelly, drags jelly out into the desert, ties them to a pole, then returns, leaving jelly in the desert alone* | 18:42 |
| teward | (just kidding!) | 18:42 |
| jelly | you can't drag a jelly anyway | 18:43 |
| nacc | Jenshae: --^ fwiw, those comments were for you :) [not the stuff about jelly, before that] | 18:43 |
| jelly | well they weren't for them as much as about their unusual specs | 18:44 |
| jelly | (grml-rescueboot is neat tho, even if not completely serious) | 18:45 |
| sarnold | when the drives are 10tb fiddling over a few gigs here or there feels a bit funny :) | 18:46 |
| Jenshae | nacc 10GBx4 /root and the 5.5GB /boot is because sometimes for some reason apt will use /boot to temporarily store files + symmetry with the other drives. | 18:46 |
| nacc | sarnold: ah, sorry, missed that context | 18:48 |
| sarnold | nacc: I don't know how large Jenshae's drives *actually* are.. it's just amused me in the past that this problem feels easy enough to address by the application of more money :) | 18:49 |
| jelly | using raid5 for / seems silly as well, in that case | 18:49 |
| nacc | sarnold: absolutely | 18:49 |
| jelly | nothing wrong with raid10 or raid1 | 18:49 |
| Jenshae | Well, in the end I resorted to getting another drives, setting it up as the boot one, nothing interesting, no RAID config, etc. Then just attached the four drives as ZFS pool. | 18:50 |
