=== nolann__ is now known as nolan___ [03:46] Good evening, I have a question about mounting 2 sata drives to my dedicated linux server running ubuntu 16.04.7 - I've seen trying to edit the /etc/fstab file. I have that file open in notepad++, with the command line logged in as root. [03:49] though, I'm unsure how to find the information needed to make the drives load on reboot etc. [04:45] !fstab | MzR_Massey [04:45] MzR_Massey: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.pclosmag.com/html/Issues/200709/page07.html and !Partitions === Napsterbater_ is now known as Napsterbater === Napsterbater is now known as Guest50375 === Napsterbater_ is now known as Napsterbater [08:33] coreycb: started the MIR review of python-invoke only to realise its an optional Recommends [08:33] uploaded a ubuntu delta to demote to a suggests [08:34] invoke needs more work prior to main inclusion (and has secondary missing depends) [12:01] jamespage: ok thanks === halvors1 is now known as halvors [13:21] icey: all of your new victoria dependency updates are uploaded now, thanks! [13:22] woot \o/ progress for next week ;-) [13:26] People hi ! Does ubuntu 20.04 suport preseed files as 18.04 did ? [13:26] I've build a custom iso with a preseed file on my own, but it's content don't seem to be taken into account... [13:36] geodb27: you need the legacy image for that: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-legacy-server/releases/20.04.1/release/ [13:37] geodb27: new autoinstall system here: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-quickstart [13:38] If you use the legacy preseeds, then please test and provide feedback on the new installer - otherwise you might find your use cases dropped when the legacy image is dropped [13:38] Thanks a lot rbasak ! I'll dig it right now ! [13:45] From what I quickly read from the second link you gave me, rbasak, the automated install is controlled via cloud-init. I know only few about it. Is there still a way to provide seeds as before ? [13:47] No. What does it matter what component implements the automation? [13:48] You tell it what you want - syntax at https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-reference [13:48] You don't need to know anything about cloud-init to use it. [19:20] So I have inherited some old ubuntu servers that I need to update. No real backup on them as of now. You guys have a favorite backup strategy? Beorg looks pretty good === halvors1 is now known as halvors === halvors1 is now known as halvors === halvors1 is now known as halvors [19:54] c4264035, rsync [20:19] Do you not worry about deduplication? [20:24] no. storage space is not expensive. [20:24] one copy is not enough, nowadays [20:28] c4264035: btrfs send or zfs send work too [21:17] oerheks: it never was [21:29] Woet: to answer your question, the messages are pretty redudnant, " [21:29] Message from syslogd@localhost at..." most of them related to sshd, invlid user or unauthenitcated [21:29] gimzmoe: you can check syslog.conf, https://serverfault.com/questions/392299/syslog-written-on-console [21:29] I'm getting a lot of love from China and Netherlands at the moment, but it seems that I might have accidently hit "mesg y" to toggle the messages [21:33] more likely I ham-fisted something like that than changing the syslog configuration [21:34] true [21:36] your kernel version suggests you're on an ubuntu release where you can just purge syslogd because it is mostly redundant with the systemd-journal - unless you explicitly need syslogd for filtering, or remote logging. [21:36] or rsyslog rather, i guess [21:37] no nothing special, these are essentially experiment servers [21:37] this said, it always helps to state what you're using when looking for support (and i don't think you did, yet). your ubuntu version is reported by lsb_relese -ds [21:37] I don't even mind the botnet, I find the parade of IPs interesting [21:38] * lsb_release -ds [21:38] Ubuntu 20.04 LTS [21:41] I appreciate the time, I think the `mesg n/y` + an id10t error on my part might have been the culprit [21:43] solved! :) [21:45] thanks! [21:46] you're welcome!
