| nelgin | Hey all. Has anyone managed to get postfix to work with dovecot+amavisd+clamav+spamassassin+mysql on 20.04? Someone decided to make it run chroot by default tired of trying to work my way around it. Has anyone got this working already? I'm at the point where I'm just going to recompile my own postfix. | 02:18 |
|---|---|---|
| sarnold | nelgin: you may have better success in #ubuntu-server but it's a bit late for americas and a bit early for europe | 02:20 |
| sarnold | for an issue with that many moving pieces, it might be easier to post about it on askubuntu.com, that way you can post all the config files and any log messages in one convenient place | 02:21 |
| nelgin | I understand. It's only 9:30pm here in Texas but yes, might be a better place. Thanks. | 02:21 |
| nelgin | True. Let me do that instead. | 02:21 |
| nelgin | Oh, that's stack exchange site. I don't much care for posting there. | 02:22 |
| nelgin | People would rather tell you that you didn't use "code" tags than help solve the problem :) | 02:23 |
| sarnold | aww :( | 02:23 |
| nelgin | I'll use the buntu forums | 02:23 |
| sarnold | it's been years since I used to spend hours on SE sites, but I always liked fixing up new folks posts so they stood a chance of getting an answer | 02:23 |
| sarnold | yikes, good luck :) | 02:23 |
| nelgin | ? | 02:23 |
| nelgin | That bad? | 02:24 |
| sarnold | well, there's a handful of folks who seem to know what they're doing, but the amount of completely wrong stuff I've seen there makes me reluctant to let anyone head there, hehe | 02:24 |
| nelgin | I wish they wouldn't do stuff like that. If I wanted something chroot, then I'd chroot it. | 02:27 |
| nelgin | CentOS has named and named-chroot so you can pick. I'm moving from CentOS because I wanted to be more up to date - but this is really killing me. I might just go with Fedora instead. | 02:27 |
| nelgin | No, I'm just going to compile my own postfix. I don't have time to deal with it. | 02:29 |

| strixdio | Hi, never used apparmor before. I tried googling some things on how to view apparmor properties of a file (like selinux) but I'm coming up short. I'm trying to get a qemu-kvm VM to run through a custom script but even though the file permissions are correct and libvirt is running as root, it's getting an access denied error, which leads me to | 04:12 |
| strixdio | believe it's apparmor related. | 04:12 |
| strixdio | /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64.vga (my script) has the same exact (regular) permissions as /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 | 04:13 |
| oerheks | see 'groups' are you member of kvm and libvirtd ? | 04:17 |
| strixdio | oerheks the groups are libvirt and libvirt-qemu | 04:18 |
| strixdio | but yeah my user is a member, has been. | 04:18 |
| oerheks | oke, it was a hint, add that script to this group??\ | 04:19 |
| strixdio | so this script, all it does is this: exec /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 `echo "$@" | sed 's|05:00.0|05:00.0,x-vga=on|g' | sed 's|06:00.0|06:00.0,x-vga=on|g'` | 04:19 |
| strixdio | and it has the same exact permissions as the file it calls | 04:19 |
| strixdio | same owner and group | 04:20 |
| strixdio | This has worked on plenty of other systems (debian, fedora, gentoo) but oddly enough ubuntu is really strange for me so IDK what it might be. | 04:20 |
| oerheks | no idea there :-( | 04:22 |
| strixdio | I just found this, am looking into it: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/471345/changing-libvirt-emulator-permission-denied | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | the only thing i could think of was that bug qemu needs to be part of the kvm group as oerheks says | 04:24 |
| oerheks | he is using qemu.. | 04:24 |
| lotuspsychje | i had that with gnome-boxes too | 04:25 |
| strixdio | I see, "/usr/bin/kvm rmix," and "/usr/local/bin/* PUx," what is rmix and PUx? | 04:26 |
| strixdio | man, this is strange. | 04:34 |
| strixdio | I'm so stuck. can't get GPU passthrough to work, hoping this would help it but can't even get that to work | 04:37 |
| oerheks | this tutor worked for me https://blog.zerosector.io/2018/07/28/kvm-qemu-windows-10-gpu-passthrough/ | 04:39 |
| strixdio | What's crazy is I used to do GPU passthrough years ago | 04:40 |
| strixdio | it shows up in my VM, but error 43. | 04:40 |
| strixdio | I've tried so many things to get rid of that error, just doesn't go away :/ | 04:41 |
| strixdio | the only thing different is that I'm using Q35 | 04:41 |
| strixdio | if I go back to the "default" way of doing this, there's *never* any output on my 2nd GPU | 04:45 |
| strixdio | hmm, might not be applying the vfio-pci early enough, gotta check this new mod. | 05:00 |

| deanc | hey doing a release upgrade via cli and it says "inhibiting until ctrl+c is pressed" | 06:24 |
| deanc | what is it inhibiting? is it actually doing the upgrade, there's no progress bar, no info, nothing | 06:24 |
| oerheks | release upgrade to 20.04? | 06:27 |
| oerheks | upgrade path is not released, AFAIK | 06:28 |

| oerheks | oh, oke. not for LTS > LTS | 06:30 |

| ubottu | Hardware requirements to install, boot and comfortably use Ubuntu are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements - For a !flavor with lower requirements, see !Xubuntu or !Lubuntu | 07:38 |
| oerheks | use a lighter desktop? | 07:39 |
| oerheks | mate, xubuntu,.. | 07:39 |
| oerheks | !flavors | 07:39 |
| ubottu | Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. For a list, see https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours | 07:39 |
| guiverc | cfoch, in my testing Lubuntu is lightest, however it's Qt5 based so if you're using GTK3 apps; Xubuntu may end up being lighter (Lubuntu is now Qt5 so does better with KDE/Qt apps) | 07:52 |

| rbotoml | Hi all, I like the mate desktop environment and was thinking of upgrading my ubuntu system to 20.4. However, I'm thinking of using the ubuntu-mate iso, is this safe to do so? | 08:24 |
| rbotoml | because it's not official ubuntu | 08:24 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, Ubuntu-MATE is an official flavor of Ubuntu | 08:25 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, official flavors can be seen at https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours (you'll note that's ubuntu.com) | 08:25 |
| rbotoml | guiverc: oh, so it'll be safe? I mean, the ISO will not be tampered with? As that's what I'm scared of in general with linux, what happens if someone tampers with the iso | 08:26 |
| rbotoml | guiverc: cheers! | 08:26 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, I'd not ask google or a search engine for official flavor websites, but trust ubuntu.com (asking for lubuntu can have you send to other unofficial sites that offer to provide it... stick to official sites) | 08:27 |
| rbotoml | alright cheers! | 08:27 |
| oerheks | one should check the iso after download.. | 08:28 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, linux mint have suffered altered ISOs, but that's never occurred with Ubuntu (website managed by Canonical or company; likewise for official flavor sites) | 08:28 |
| oerheks | !md5sum | 08:28 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which a checksum is provided), see https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu | 08:28 |
| guiverc | I'd 100% agree with checksum validation ! | 08:29 |
| rbotoml | guiverc: Do you remember what was altered? | 08:29 |
| guiverc | sorry I don't (not a Mint user so didn't take much notice) | 08:30 |
| rbotoml | So if I install ubuntu mate over ubuntu other than the gnome DE what else would I be 'missing'? | 08:30 |
| oerheks | a hack with a malicious download url, https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2994 | 08:30 |
| rbotoml | I'd like to know the consequences if any of going down this route | 08:30 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, very little... Main `ubuntu` may not have 'universe' enabled by default.. that's the major difference I can think of | 08:31 |
| guiverc | actually that won't be noticed; 'universe' is enabled on MATE & all flavors by default | 08:32 |
| rbotoml | ah ok | 08:32 |
| rbotoml | oerheks: wow.... does this sort of think happen all the time to ISOs across the linux universe? I mean, anyone can do this right? If they host they're own mirror | 08:34 |
| oerheks | No. | 08:34 |
| oerheks | this is one of the few attempts i know, in 10 years. | 08:35 |
| oerheks | download by the source, or verified torrents https://torrent.ubuntu.com/ | 08:35 |
| rbotoml | Right I see | 08:36 |
| guiverc | main difference I can think of between mate & gnome is the different programs, mate uses caja instead of nautilus, pluma instead of gedit, etc... programs are very similar but each is more efficient on the intended desktop... nautilus/caja = file manager, pluma/gedit text editors etc for each app | 08:37 |
| rbotoml | Do the fella at canonical check that the flavours of ubuntu are not adding in malicious stuff in their isos? Do the people maintaining the flavours have to get approval in anyway from canonical? | 08:38 |
| rbotoml | guiverc: I like the way mate 'looks' and I think it's better for older hardware it certainly feels that way, I could be wrong | 08:38 |
| oerheks | mate gives the old gnome2 look .. | 08:39 |
| rbotoml | oerheks: Which looks good imo | 08:39 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, another BIG difference, for LTS releases main Ubuntu desktop (GNOME) has 5 years of supported life, flavors only come with 3 years (for desktop)... not an issue for most people as they release-ugprade before the 3 years anyway | 08:39 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, I agree re: MATE looks & feel, plus lighter than GNOME, in my experience anyway | 08:40 |
| rbotoml | guiverc: why can't ubuntu just do a rolling release? | 08:40 |
| oerheks | err... if you find a huge group of people who test it, ... | 08:41 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, I'm on groovy currently, been on it since day after 20.04/focal release.. I consider my being on *development* cycle ~equal to rolling.. but their is always RHINO | 08:41 |
| oerheks | rolling release sounds simple, still there are many variants on that theme.. and is exhausting | 08:41 |
| guiverc | rbotoml, https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/06/ubuntu-rolling-release-rhino-tool | 08:41 |
| rbotoml | cheers! | 08:42 |
| * oerheks waiting for the upgrade path release 18.04 > 20.04 | 08:43 | |

| oerheks | well, experienced users can go wild on any release, i stick to LTS for the most common support issues. i do have a 2nd machine on 20.04 already, it is beautifull! | 08:46 |

| Hamilton | I have the release tarball of an app that I want to install. It suggests "./configre && make && make install". I think it's better to install it via my package manager. What is the downside of using "checkinstall" to create a ".deb" file and install the app using "sudo apt install ./output.deb" ? | 11:02 |

| Hamilton | lotuspsychje, The app has a release in repos but it is a little behind. There is simply too many cases that I want to install an app but there isn't a PPA or it. Is checkinstall the best we've got? I think it is better than "make install"ing | 11:07 |

| nbusrone | Trieste : tried mayn times , can I ask at askubuntu ? | 12:14 |
| Trieste | if it works in the terminal, but not from the service, it's not a wayland/x issue | 12:15 |
| Trieste | imho it's an X permission issue, or something of the sort - unfortunately I can't really help you further | 12:16 |
| Trieste | (if only because I've been struggling with a similar thing in the past and just gave up when I found out just how unreasonable X acts sometimes) | 12:16 |
| nbusrone | Trieste : all of the script and command runs on terminal but not on service which always throw display not found. | 12:20 |
| nbusrone | Trieste : i am not sure it's x or wayland issue.If permission , what does it mean ? no sudo ? | 12:21 |
| nbusrone | Trieste : i did chmod 776 | 12:21 |

| rustedrat | Hello | 12:47 |
| rustedrat | I'm having somre problems with apt/dpkg after an instalation attempt (tried to install mysql-8.0 but it broke, there's something in launchpad I think is a bug) | 12:48 |
| jelly | PETURBG, are you using Debian or Ubuntu? Curious since you're asking in both channels | 12:51 |
| sigv | !paste | rustedrat could you provide logs | 12:55 |
| ubottu | rustedrat could you provide logs: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 12:55 |
| sigv | rustedrat: about what broke; also, what LP bug # you are thinking of would be nice to provide. | 12:55 |
| rustedrat | sure, one sec | 12:57 |
| rustedrat | sample from trying to unninstall: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vmjSy87mYC/ | 12:59 |
| rustedrat | The bug I believe is related is this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-8.0/+bug/1890114 | 12:59 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1890114 in mysql-8.0 (Ubuntu) "package mysql-server-8.0 8.0.21-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 failed to install/upgrade: installed mysql-server-8.0 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 12:59 |
| rustedrat | The message and operations match. The person tried to install and got a failed install, then the person also can't remove | 13:00 |
| rustedrat | my problem is that now nothing can be installed or removed, since apt/dpkg keeps saying mysql is broken, and trying to remove it has also been a problem | 13:01 |
| oerheks | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-8.0 gives 8.0.21-0ubuntu0.20.04.4 .. you have 20.04.3 ... run proper updates first? | 13:01 |
| rustedrat | I never saw something like this, so I am really confused in what to do | 13:01 |
| jelly | hi, any newer ETA when release upgrades to 20.04 LTS might start working? | 13:01 |
| oerheks | jelly no :-( | 13:02 |

| rustedrat | I am confirming it, but I beleive it is the latest | 13:03 |
| hirogen | I may be going for a role where i have to build and support Ubuntu machines, would these machines be built (laptops) with windows techs like sccm, WDK or using Linux deployment tools i figure | 13:03 |
| jelly | oh, that's useful, thanks | 13:03 |
| oerheks | rustedrat, no it is not, i showed you | 13:03 |
| rustedrat | oh, I see what you mean | 13:03 |
| oerheks | that minor update might include the fix for the issue you encounter | 13:04 |
| rustedrat | hmm, how would I get it? apt is broken | 13:04 |
| rustedrat | and doing a full install is also a problem | 13:04 |
| oerheks | rustedrat, and you used apt-get ( the old way) , try again with apt? sudo apt remove -f mysql-server | 13:05 |
| oerheks | apt is superiour over apt-get now. | 13:05 |
| rustedrat | I tried both ways oerheks | 13:05 |
| rustedrat | the same message appears | 13:05 |
| rustedrat | I'm trying to get a hold of all the logs | 13:05 |
| rustedrat | People ask for my help and then leave to drink coffee...ugh | 13:06 |

| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 13:07 |
| sigv | rustedrat: `apt update` works? | 13:07 |
| sigv | rustedrat: it should. if the install broke, you might want to try checking `apt install -f` to see if that picks up anything not yet installed. | 13:08 |
| rustedrat | neither apt update nor apt install are working, sme kind of error | 13:19 |

| TeleGhost | Hello, I am trying to install windows 10 bootable usb on ubuntu 18.04 with woeusb should I use FAT or NTSF? | 13:51 |
| TeleGhost | NTFS* | 13:51 |
| TeleGhost | I want to install windows 10 on 64-bit computer. | 13:52 |
| TeleGhost | I guess NTFS | 13:53 |
| rustedrat | sigv, oerheks, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wQGnYmshkp/ this is an example trying to install vim, when `apt update` or `apt install -f` runs it's the same | 13:53 |
| leftyfb | TeleGhost: first, that is a #windows questions. Second, just be aware, if you're going to install Windows on a machine with Ubuntu with intent of dual booting, you'll need to re-install/recover grub on said machine after Windows is installed. | 13:58 |
| TeleGhost | no no dual boot | 13:58 |
| sigv | rustedrat: should check what the script /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server.postintall is actually trying to configure. | 13:58 |
| sigv | .postinst * | 13:59 |
| TeleGhost | I got error message telling me I should unmount device or something like usb device is busy | 14:00 |
| TeleGhost | so I can't burn iso image on usb | 14:00 |
| sigv | rustedrat: also, wondering whether unpacking a newer version of mysql-server would have a fixed postinst script. Could try that. | 14:00 |
| TeleGhost | oh windows question ok | 14:01 |
| rustedrat | I tried to make a dpkg -i *.deb with mysql, didn't work, is that what you mean? | 14:01 |
| TeleGhost | how do I unmount usb | 14:03 |
| TeleGhost | ? | 14:03 |
| rustedrat | in terminal? | 14:03 |
| TeleGhost | yes | 14:03 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: do you intend to use it with uefi? | 14:03 |
| EriC^ | (only uefi) | 14:03 |
| TeleGhost | uefi I don't know what that is? | 14:03 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: it's a booting method | 14:03 |
| oerheks | rustedrat, i see : 1 pacotes atualizados, 2 pacotes novos instalados, 0 a serem removidos e 63 não atualizados. | 14:03 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: what is the output of "lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999" | 14:04 |
| TeleGhost | ? | 14:04 |
| rustedrat | yeah, it gives that message, but then it fails with the postinstall triggers from mysql | 14:04 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: it's a command for the terminal | 14:04 |
| oerheks | rustedrat, you need to fix this, 63 not updated... run sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade # and reboot, then try again | 14:04 |
| TeleGhost | I don't but I just want to unmount usb | 14:04 |
| TeleGhost | I know* | 14:05 |
| EriC^ | yeah | 14:05 |
| oerheks | without proper updating, installing software fails. | 14:05 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: that's what im trying to do | 14:05 |
| rustedrat | Let me try, one sec | 14:05 |
| sigv | oerheks: what I'm thinking is dpkg is trying to run a broken postinst before unpacking the new fixed postinst, if that's the underlying problem | 14:06 |
| TeleGhost | https://termbin.com/gpjl | 14:06 |
| rustedrat | I am of that theory too sigv | 14:06 |
| oerheks | sigv, that too.. not sure how to fix this | 14:06 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: type "sudo umount /dev/sdb1" "sudo umount /dev/sdb2" | 14:06 |
| rustedrat | because the person told me that could install everything fine before trying mysql-server | 14:07 |
| rustedrat | Also, as additional info, I already tried to purge, autoremove and dpkg remove it, but it wont go away | 14:08 |
| TeleGhost | okay Eric^ thanks I think this worked | 14:08 |
| sigv | rustedrat: mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-8.0*.postinst ~/ | 14:08 |
| EriC^ | TeleGhost: ok, no problem | 14:08 |
| sigv | rustedrat: then, dpkg --configure -a | 14:08 |
| sigv | rustedrat: then, apt install mysql server again. This will then install the update and run the post-install script on that. | 14:09 |
| rustedrat | one sec, the person went to grab a cipotle...Love how people ask for help and leave me hanging | 14:09 |
| sigv | rustedrat: the idea i have behind this is that removing the pending postinstall script will "unlock" dpkg configuration failure and by extension apt. You can then install the newer patched version. Makes sense? | 14:11 |
| rustedrat | yes, it does | 14:15 |
| rustedrat | I just hope dpkg is as smart as I think that will keep locked | 14:16 |
| rustedrat | That will not* | 14:17 |
| rustedrat | sigv, trying to run the full-upgrade after removing the postinst give this: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tk3wrVp4nb/ | 14:22 |
| rustedrat | the `apt install mysql-server`asked for a fix-broken, and gave the output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/qzdFjTd4mJ/ | 14:23 |
| rustedrat | Is there any way I can remove mysql-server completely? | 14:23 |
| === Wryhder is now known as Lucas_Gray | ||
| === halvors1 is now known as halvors | ||
| rustedrat | I tried removing that .deb, but apt still thinks it is in cache, so I don't think it is a corrupted package | 14:24 |
| rustedrat | and one thing you guys are correct, the syste is in 20.04.1, not the latest | 14:28 |
| rustedrat | which may be breaking the things | 14:28 |
| === halvors1 is now known as halvors | ||
| rustedrat | Any thoughts? I'm trying to find a way to make dpkg forget that mysql exists somehow, since I am having trouble removing it and can't reinstall a newer version because the previous is broken | 14:43 |
| oerheks | rustedrat, .. so, you did not update properly, and reboot? | 14:43 |
| rustedrat | It is failing midway in the reboot | 14:43 |
| rustedrat | in the update sorry | 14:43 |
| rustedrat | if you look the first paste I posted, it has theerror that us happening | 14:44 |
| oerheks | interesting.. you did not mention that, not helpfull. | 14:44 |
| oerheks | i am off for diner, maybe someone else can help. | 14:45 |
| rustedrat | Sorry, I just got that confirmation | 14:45 |
| pavlos | can you use synaptic to completely wipe out mysql and fix broken pkgs? | 14:45 |
| rustedrat | thanks for the insights tho | 14:45 |
| rustedrat | not sure, to isntall synaptic I would have to be able to install it using dpkg, right? and dpkg keeps failing because it says mysql isn't properly configured | 14:46 |
| rustedrat | that's a deadlock situation, and I'm not sure how to work with it | 14:46 |
| pavlos | sudo apt install synaptic gives you errors? | 14:47 |
| rustedrat | Like, the full-upgrade gives this outuput: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wrZQ7K4QHY/ | 14:47 |
| rustedrat | and yes, the same erros with this paste. bascially, mysql-server is stuck in a pseudo installed state | 14:48 |
| rustedrat | and that prevents me to install or uninstall anything | 14:48 |
| rustedrat | If I try to dpkg configure it, it is nto giving any error message anymore | 14:50 |
| rustedrat | but it still broken | 14:50 |
| pavlos | dpkg -l | grep mysql ... what are the 2 characters in the beginning? | 14:51 |
| rustedrat | pavlos, https://file.io/4bO1F24UeleP sorry, people sent me an image instead of the output | 14:57 |
| rustedrat | but as you can see, there seens to be a werd situation where core thinks it should install version .3, when all are .4 | 14:58 |
| rustedrat | I"m having trouble finding a way to fix that | 14:58 |
| pavlos | rustedrat: 404 file not found ... I'd like to get a list of what mysql is installed, dpkg -l | grep mysql should show that. The first 2 chars indicate status of pkg | 15:00 |
| pavlos | rustedrat: get mysql removed, then do a dist upgrade | 15:01 |
| rustedrat | https://file.io/oh7soO3zrb81 | 15:01 |
| rustedrat | does this link work? | 15:01 |
| pavlos | no, 404 again | 15:02 |

| pavlos | rustedrat: you may have to edit (as root) /var/lib/dpkg/status and manually remove all deps of mysql* pkgs, namely just those two (mysql-server-8.0 , mysql-client-8.0 ) | 15:32 |
| rustedrat | hmm | 15:34 |
| rustedrat | maybe that's the only way | 15:34 |

| pavlos | rustedrat: make a copy of status first, modify, see if dpkg is happy. If not, restore the backup copy. | 15:35 |
| rustedrat | Ok, will do | 15:36 |
| pavlos | rustedrat: I would just remove the whole section for those 2 pkgs as if they dont exist anymore | 15:36 |

| pavlos | rustedrat: look how the status file is, starts with Package:, Status:, Priority: ... ends with blank line. So if you remove those two (mysql-server-8.0, mysql-client-8.0) then dpkg might be happy. | 15:45 |
| pavlos | rustedrat: then you can sudo apt autoremove; sudo apt autoclean and purge the rest of the mysql pkgs | 15:47 |

| sorressean | I have a dev system for work that I was given to use, it's a VM instance managed by puppet and LDAP. I want to change my shell, but chsh doesn't work because my login info doesn't exist in /etc/passwd which makes sense. Given that though, how do I change this? I can install nslcd-utils but that sounds like it would require admin access to LDAP and I don't know where to look for the usage of LDAP. | 16:03 |
| leftyfb | sorressean: contact your works IT department | 16:04 |
| sorressean | already did. my contact isn't sure, so I'm back to research. where is LDAP access usually configured? Like what directs logins to run through LDAP? I might be able to pull the URI from there--I have root access. | 16:05 |
| pavlos | rustedrat: also, you may have a /var/lib/dpkg/status-old (one day before) which might be good (not having mysql references) | 16:07 |

| jelly | sorressean, does "getent passwd yourusername" pull the info from ldap? | 16:12 |
| sorressean | jelly: it does! | 16:13 |
| jelly | this is the compatible (and somewhat portable) way of reading the passwd database, works for both local and remote | 16:13 |
| sorressean | also it shows my shell. | 16:13 |
| jelly | is it the desired shell now? | 16:14 |
| sorressean | no, I'm trying to figure out how to change that. | 16:14 |
| sorressean | it's bash, trying to make it go to zsh. | 16:14 |
| jelly | look at /etc/nsswitch.conf to see which nss modules are enabled for the line starting with "passwd" | 16:14 |
| jelly | there are at least 3-4 ways to make ldap users work :-\ | 16:15 |
| jelly | sss possibly being a nice one | 16:15 |
| sorressean | passwd: compat ss | 16:15 |
| jelly | sss ? | 16:15 |
| sorressean | ss* sorry. | 16:16 |
| jelly | I do not know what ss with just two "s"es iss. | 16:16 |
| jelly | well, apart from the WW2 SS | 16:16 |
| sorressean | I mistyped. it's sss. | 16:17 |
| jelly | good. sss has ways to override specific ldap attributes on a local machine | 16:17 |
| jelly | sorressean, see if sssd-tools package is installed, and look at sss_usermod | 16:19 |
| jelly | you can also edit sssd config file but eh | 16:19 |
| Lutin | why does msadm not see the sub devices of an array, they are just there | 16:19 |
| sorressean | jelly: this really helps, thank you. I just installed the tools package and have usermod now. | 16:19 |
| jelly | hmm, that doesn't work for me on one machine but I remember it working | 16:31 |
| jelly | perhaps ask in #sssd | 16:32 |
| jelly | sorressean, I may have lied and sss_override would be the right tool instead. | 16:34 |
| sorressean | jelly: I just did it through the config and cleared cache. works great. I'm the only user, but if someone else joins my server they can live with zsh because it will be good for them! | 16:35 |
| jelly | I've been a zsh user since 1996 but wouldn't change defaults for everyone because they might be used to various bash brokenness | 16:37 |

| rustedrat | If someone uses a vpn and if they disconnect the vpn they have to restart the machine to get connection again, is that most probably a networkmanager config issue or a bug? We are talking about a very default ubuntu 20.04 install | 18:32 |

| q8shadow | thats how | 19:00 |
| genii | zamba: You can browse through xenial-backports lists at https://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 19:00 |
| zamba | rfm: ah, thanks.. seems like the package i'm looking for isn't backported | 19:00 |
| zamba | genii: bionic-backports you mean? | 19:00 |
| genii | Sorry, yes | 19:01 |
| oft_gegong | zamba, ummm. if you do `apt-cache show mypackage' that you can extract from `dpkg -l' you can get versions of the package that will have "18.04" and "20.04" I'm 6% sure I'm helping you | 19:01 |

| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, the snap? | 19:04 |
| q8shadow | yes the snap | 19:05 |
| oft_gegong | zamba, ok I lied. `apt-cache show vim-nox' doesn't show what version of Ubuntu it was targeting | 19:06 |
| zamba | ok, i was able to install the package in 18.04 quite easily.. i just had to install/upgrade three additional packages | 19:09 |
| zamba | is this something that's viable for a backport then? | 19:09 |
| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, https://github.com/cmars/easy-openvpn-pkg#connect-two-necessary-plugs-as-theyre-not-auto-connected-by-default | 19:10 |
| q8shadow | lordcirth__ i followed all steps, same | 19:26 |
| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, you have IP forwarding on? | 19:28 |
| lordcirth__ | What's your ethernet interface name? | 19:28 |
| q8shadow | yes ip forwarding on | 19:31 |
| q8shadow | ens5 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 0a:60:66:1d:d0:5c | 19:31 |
| q8shadow | thats my interface name, i think | 19:31 |
| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, so you set the natdevice to ens5 as mentioned? | 19:34 |
| q8shadow | root@ip-172-31-28-26:~# sudo snap set easy-openvpn natdevice=ens5 | 19:35 |
| q8shadow | i did that | 19:35 |
| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, perhaps opening an issue on the repo will get you better help | 19:36 |
| lordcirth__ | It might be a flaw in the documentation | 19:36 |
| q8shadow | i will do that, but can u try to help me in mean time | 19:37 |
| q8shadow | do u have any idea about "route" | 19:38 |
| q8shadow | how to route traffic | 19:38 |
| lordcirth__ | q8shadow, I do, but I am not as familiar with VPN routing | 19:45 |

| wrkrcoop | does anyone know how i can make redis start when my sever boots? | 20:22 |
| sarnold | wrkrcoop: does it have a systemd unit service file? | 20:23 |
| wrkrcoop | sarnold: not sure. i did edit the redis.conf to let systemd supervise it ... | 20:24 |
| sarnold | wrkrcoop: how did you install it? | 20:26 |
| wrkrcoop | sarnold: i followed this v | 20:31 |
| wrkrcoop | https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-redis-on-ubuntu-16-04 | 20:31 |
| wrkrcoop | at the bottom it says to do this: sudo systemctl enable redis | 20:31 |
| wrkrcoop | but when i run that i get Failed to enable unit: Refusing to operate on linked unit file redis.service | 20:31 |
| sarnold | wrkrcoop: try sudo systemctl enable redis-server | 20:33 |
| wrkrcoop | ok that worked | 20:34 |
| wrkrcoop | but will that make it work on startup? | 20:34 |
| sarnold | it should | 20:35 |
| sarnold | yay | 20:35 |
| sarnold | my guess is that the redis 'short name' wouldn't work, but the redis-server name would; I found those unit files via apt-file show redis-server | grep service | 20:35 |

| wrkrcoop | in ubuntu is there a way i can write a shell script and have it execute it on startup? | 20:46 |
| q8shadow | hellp, i need help with amazon aws, i created open vpn on my server when i connect from my client there's no internet access, what should i do? | 20:48 |
| sarnold | wrkrcoop: sure, the best way is to write a systemd unit file for it that will execute at boot, that way you can make sure it only executes when the things it needs are available, its logs can go to the journal, etc | 20:48 |
| wrkrcoop | sarnold: ok thanks ill look into that | 20:49 |
| Bray90820 | wrkrcoop: there is an easier way | 20:49 |
| wrkrcoop | Bray90820: whats that? im bbuilding an image for aws i need to pull from github and start my app when the image boots | 20:50 |
| Bray90820 | in the dash panel search for startup applications the click add and then click brows nd you can add the script from there | 20:50 |
| wrkrcoop | Bray90820: im gonna be launching it with cloudformation but ill see if theres a way to do it with CF | 20:51 |
| mason | wrkrcoop: Or write something in /etc/init.d/rc.local. | 20:52 |
| wrkrcoop | mason whats that | 20:52 |
| Bray90820 | wrkrcoop: did you mean when your computer starts? | 20:52 |
| mason | wrkrcoop: The contents run at startup. | 20:52 |
| wrkrcoop | ok sounds good | 20:53 |
| sarnold | Bray90820: anything marked "startup applications" is probably going to run when logging in to a gui, not when a machine starts running | 20:57 |

| chull | Does anyone have a simple way to edit a pdf form in Ubuntu? I'm looking at directions https://askubuntu.com/questions/29230/is-there-software-that-can-fill-pdf-forms. The latest one there says use LibreOffice, is there a better, simpler way? | 21:42 |
| oft_gegong | chull, your best bet is to `apt-cache search pdf' and `man pdf-tool' | 21:43 |
| === banisterfiend_ is now known as banisterfiend | ||
| chull | oft_gegong, thanks looking | 21:44 |
| oft_gegong | chull, `apt-cache search pdf | grep -i pdf' might help narrow down results | 21:45 |
| chull | oft_gegong, i think this is more than we need. | 21:49 |

| Sbur3 | Just bought a 128 gb usb key / drive. I can't seem to copy-paste onto the stick. Apparently, it says that it is owned by root. How do I change that? | 22:39 |
| rjwiii | Sbur3: Ubuntu version? | 22:42 |
| Sbur3 | rjwiii: 20.04 | 22:42 |
| Sbur3 | rjwiii: Something with chmod or chown? | 22:42 |
| Sbur3 | Or something else? | 22:43 |
| oerheks | Depends, what filesystem is on that usb thing? | 22:43 |
| rjwiii | Sbur3: Interesting ... it's doing that on my box, too ... | 22:43 |
| Bashing-om | Sbur3: And also - what is the file system on this USB device ? | 22:44 |
| Sbur3 | oerheks: I think that it is FAT. Tried to use 'Disks" to format it again to FAT | 22:44 |
| oerheks | fat is not posix, weird. | 22:45 |
| Sbur3 | oerheks: rjwiii: Bashing-om: "/mnt/usb-Verbatim_STORE_N_GO_CCYYMMFQ7CF2WKPT-0:0-part1/". Think it see /dev/sdc1 | 22:46 |

| DeeJayTwo | Hi! | 22:55 |
| DeeJayTwo | I'd like to open .stl files with a specific application | 22:55 |
| DeeJayTwo | But .stl files properties doesn't show the "open with" menu | 22:55 |
| DeeJayTwo | how do I do? | 22:55 |
| oerheks | what are .stl files? | 22:57 |
| DeeJayTwo | Meshed 3d models, often used for 3d printing. | 23:00 |
| oerheks | 'open with : other application' then select .. | 23:03 |
| oerheks | if it does not show up, 'show all'? | 23:04 |
| DeeJayTwo | There's no "open with" tab.. | 23:06 |
| DeeJayTwo | for stl files.. | 23:06 |
| oerheks | you do have software installed to handle .stl? | 23:07 |
| strixdio | hi everyone, I'm trying to wrap my head around apparmor. I can't run a script that calls /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 when apparmor is enabled (permission denied), but if I disable it, the script can run it fine. I'm a little more used to selinux (though not great), what might I be missing? | 23:27 |
| strixdio | better ask: how do I "add" the permission for this script to run /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 | 23:28 |
| rfm | strixdio, look in syslog for messages telling you what was denied by what profile, read the apparmor man page for how to modify profiles | 23:31 |
| strixdio | ah, starting to see it... Though, profile="libvirt-*" where * is a random string (maybe a UUID?) | 23:32 |
| strixdio | great starting point here, thank you :) | 23:33 |
