| jrwren | ya know what would be really useful... a howto guide for dealing with/debugging ubuntu-cloudimg systems/containers. | 15:45 |
|---|---|---|
| jrwren | because when something goes wrong, and all your usual utilities aren't there becuase it is a minimal system, it is really annoying. | 15:46 |
| jrwren | TIL: the `ip` command isn't even installed. | 15:46 |
| jrwren | like... how do you even determine your own ip address??? | 15:46 |
| cmaloney | whut? | 15:58 |
| cmaloney | Are they running busybox? | 15:59 |
| jrwren | no, it still has /bin/dash, but it is stripped to run containers and so only has minimal tools. not even systemd AFAICT, because a container doesn't need an init system | 18:28 |
| jrwren | it makes sense, but I do wish there were ways... I should have cat /proc/net/fib_trie | 18:30 |
| jrwren | but I didn't think of it at the time. | 18:31 |
| cmaloney | That feels like waiting for a cactus to grow to scratch your back | 18:45 |
| jrwren | lul | 18:51 |
| jrwren | i ultimately fixed my problem... hte problem was me... :) | 19:06 |
| cmaloney | uh huh | 19:16 |
| cmaloney | "I had not queried the network card firmware directly. How could I be so daft?!" | 19:17 |
| jrwren | oh no. i didn't really need to know the IP. I needed to fix docker DNS resolution. my local bind was denying queries from that docker network. | 19:26 |
| jrwren | this is what i get for having a convoluted DNS config including BIND using views fronting iphole. | 19:26 |
| jrwren | i basically route DNS requests to get the results I want. It works great, but when something isn't configured right, it doesn't. | 19:27 |
| cmaloney | heh | 19:29 |
