kinghathow do you get grub to show at boot?00:00
kinghatwould it not have been installed?00:02
kinghatI don't get grub when I boot up.00:04
kinghatleft shift or ESC doesn't work.00:08
kinghathmm not installed. is grub not being installed by default normal?00:09
tewardkinghat: no it's not normal.00:11
tewardand had there been a grub installation failure it probably would've said so in the logs as a failure to install00:12
kinghatso is my system borked?00:13
kinghatlooks like grub is installed but i just cant get it to show up for some reason: http://paste.debian.net/hidden/046574cb/00:51
kinghatis it the ESC or left SHIFT or something like that?00:51
kinghatlol that's the grub i get. no keys do anything https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/cGioOJe6/irccloudcapture2268390190753378140.jpg00:57
Ouyeshey guys,  the memory usage is going higher and higher on my server, both the ram and swap, is this indicating a memory leakage?02:50
qman__not directly, no03:22
qman__it means you're using more resources, which could have any number of causes including normal activity03:23
kinghatikonia: you still around?03:54
OerHeksodd, first you stated grub was borked visable on your system..04:04
kinghatya04:07
kinghatnot sure why. maybe it was the monitor? i started a live usb to see if i could run boot-repair, and did, but that didnt fix it. so i figured i could use the live usb to alter the sudoers file, which worked.04:08

MJCDI have never set up or run a mailserver before07:12
MJCDbut want to do so for a new site, hosted locally07:12
MJCDwhat's the easiest method of doing so :)07:12
ducasseMJCD: postfix, plus dovecot for pop3/imap. see the ubuntu wiki, there's an article on setting up postfix.07:39
MJCDducasse, someone else just recommended in terms of management postfixadmin07:40
ducasseMJCD: i've not used that myself, so can't comment - sorry07:40
ducasseMJCD: you should do a bit of research and reading, running a mailserver is not for the faint of heart or newbies (not saying you're either)07:41
MJCDI'm a newb at mail servers07:42
MJCDbut network admin and programmer of 20 years07:42
MJCDI07:42

kinghatso after i mistakenly removed my only user from the sudoers group, i was able to statically set it via visudo by sshing into the machine by using a live boot in root mode. now that i have added the user back to the sudo group can i remove the user from the static line in sudoers?16:21
nacckinghat: now that you know how to fix it, test it and try? seems like that should be fine, presuming you did it right :)16:22
kinghatalso, there is a group in the sudoers file called admin. it has less privs than the sudo group so a user doesnt need to be a part of admin if they are already part of sudo?16:24
masonteward: The only problem with Perl is that not enough people understand its pure, unadulterated goodness!16:25
nacckinghat: did you read the corresponding comment?16:25
tewardmason: no, actually, it's because perl works with everything and things'll explode if you aren't careful in version bumps16:25
tewardso it's not autoreleased from proposed :P16:25
masonteward: Is that a Perl issue or a CPAN issue?16:26
tewardneither.16:26
kinghatnacc: your comment? or is there a comment you are referring to in the sudoers file?16:26
nacckinghat: in the sudoers file by default16:26
tewardmason: too complex to explain here, at least not with the time I have.16:26
masonteward: Alright. My personal experience is that base Perl is wonderfully backwards-compatible, and that it's when you start pulling in random other bits that the whole tower becomes unstable.16:27
kinghat"# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges"?16:27
nacckinghat: right16:28
kinghatmay?16:31
kinghat"# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command" for sudo.16:31
Ussatdoes Ubuntu server have anything like :  authconfig --enablekrb5 --enablekrb5kdcdns --enablekrb5realmdns --update . this configures kerberos to use t=whats already in krb5.cong without a gui16:33

sarnoldno doubt if you write your perl like it's 5.004 then things will just work for decades17:11
tewardsarnold: so then all you have to worry about is {InsertOpenSSLChangesHere} :P17:15
tewardand it explodes everything xD17:15
masonsarnold: Don't give away my secret.17:16
sarnoldteward: but when that ssl 0.9 client connects, it'll Just Work! :D17:34
sarnoldmason: hehehe17:34
tewardsarnold: lol.17:34
masonsarnold: SSLeay please. Let's not get all postmodern.17:34
tewardsarnold: is that before or after the server disables TLS1, 1.1, and 1.2 in favor of TLs 1.3 + Modern ciphers LOL17:35

AngryeleHey don't suppose anyone can give me a hand? Running Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 LTS having dpkg issues while installing mysql19:03
tewardAngryele: what issues specifically?19:05
AngryeleI'm trying to figure out the main problem, when I sudo apt-get install mysql-server I get  this error http://prntscr.com/lt7vz7    dpkg dependency, sub process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)19:08
sarnoldscrollup19:08
sarnoldthe first error is probably higher up the terminal19:09
tewardsarnold: it's in the screenshot - configure-symlinks: no such file or dir19:10
sarnoldteward: but *why* didn't mysql-common unpack correctly?19:11
Angryelehttp://prntscr.com/lt7y6n  entire thing incase you wanted it19:12
sarnolddang19:12
sarnoldapt-get purge all the mysql packages and try again?19:12
AngryeleYeah done that before but I'll show you that message if its different19:13
AngryeleTried updating/upgrading everything before  and when I try apt purge mysql "E: Unable to locate package mysql"19:14
TJ-Angryele: did you confirm mysql-common was correctly installed?19:16
AngryeleNo have not19:17
TJ-Angryele: that's the package the contains the file that is apparently missing, so I'd "sudo apt --reinstall install mysql-common" first to ensure that is good19:19
Angryelehttp://prntscr.com/lt82n2  Full error I got19:21
naccuh, not using ubuntu packages19:21
naccAngryele: you are using mariadb's packages and mixing them with the ubuntu ones19:23
TJ-nacc: nicely spotted19:24
AngryeleI might of actually, been stuck on this problem for a good couple of hours so might of done that once is one of the google search fixes19:24
naccTJ-: it's probably the number one user error in this channel :)19:25
AngryeleWhats the recommended fix? Have a mediocre amount of skill, doing this on my friends request as he wants to transition from windows server to ubuntu server but promptly fainted seeing the "all terminal" interface19:28
naccAngryele: remove that repository and all packages from it19:28
AngryeleOk now I remembered what happened. Was going through old stuff was installing the pterodactyl game panel I must of installed mariaDB there. Thanks Nacc!19:33
