alkisgjdstrand said: if phalor returns, removing 'port any' makes it work. 'any' isn't a valid port (the error could be clearer on that point; it isn't referring to 'proto tcp', it is referring to the lookup in /etc/services)14:51

phalorUFW needs to be improved to give comments, like a SMTP server14:56
phaloror codes14:56
phalorCome on someone must know the answer. It can't be this bad.15:01
TrippyJHey everybody, I moved servers for my project and I have two domains. Right now, both domains work on the server, but the server is running on domain2 and is set up as domain2. My problem, is my smtpd was abused for a few hours as an open relay when I first set it up and now Gmail is blocking mail from that domain 533 or whatever - I am trying to15:03
TrippyJthink of all the things I would need to do to just revert the new server fully to the previous FQDN15:03
TrippyJI think I have to change my hostname, restart all services, reconfigure postfix and opendkim for the other domain (the configuration is still for the previous server)15:03
TrippyJTrying to think what else I am missing or how long I might have to lose some services to do this15:04
TrippyJI had such an awful time getting opendkim and smptd set up the last two times haha. The first time was about 4 hours and the second took me over 24 :(15:04
TrippyJphalor - tell me your problem I missed it15:04
TrippyJI'm not very good but maybe I can help15:04
phalorMy UFW firewall is not allowing through a packets when it should be: https://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/o2KS7ms3ByYE.png15:05
phalorThe conditions meet the gatekeepers condition, but he is still sooking and won't tell me why15:05
phalorAs for your mail server, get yourself a new IP address, that will be your biggest improvement.15:06
TrippyJYeah, but Gmail is blocking it based on the domain15:06
TrippyJHilariously, my other emails from the same IP but with the other domain are working (but being sent to spam because it fails dkim, etc.;)15:06
phalorThen you need to get in contact with Google and tell them you messed up and you have taken measures to fix it.15:07
TrippyJYeah, they don't seem to have support for that it seems like the fix can take weeks15:07
phalorYes, blocking IP's would not be good for virtual servers sharing the same host.15:07
TrippyJ(reputation for domain has to improve, there is an algorithm)15:07
phalorYou have to live with it then. Sorry to be so blunt, but this is how the world works.15:07
TrippyJbut, I can just swap to the other domain, it isn't really a big deal, I just don't want too many major service hiccups15:07
TrippyJI might be able to do it live today if I think only some services have to be restarted here and there15:08
TrippyJ(there are only 3 users today due to a company event)15:08
phalorDo what ever you have to do to get it working again, at any cost15:08
TrippyJAlso for your problem, is there another firewall beyond UFW?15:08
phalorHow did you manage to run an open relay?15:08
phalorThere is no firewall beyond UFW.15:08
phalorand iptables are default.15:08
lotuspsychjeTrippyJ phalor sounds like both your issues are more networking related, then ubuntu issues15:08
=== edro is now known as edr
TrippyJWhen I moved servers I was so caught up getting opendkim working that I screwed up my postfix.main or postfix.cf or whatever15:09
phalorlotuspsychje: My problem is with UFW, a Canonical product made specifically for Ubuntu.15:09
ograwell, ufw is just a frontend ... you can alsways use iptables or netfilter directly15:09
TrippyJIn the end, not even sure what ended up fixing it, I pretty much rewrote the files exactly as I had them and it stopped, my logs were going crazy for about 2h:(  haha15:09
phalorogra: Yes, it will require learning them. I would rather stick with what I know.15:09
phalorTrippyJ: How long have you been running a mail server for mate?15:10
ogra(i was commenting on "there is no other firewall than ufw" ... i'm sure there are other frontends in universe)15:10
TrippyJI ran one before many years ago, and only recently started again a few months ago. The first one I did great because it worked after only minor frustrations and I made sure to lock it down15:10
phalorogra: OpenSUSE crew tried to get me to use theirs. :)15:10

TrippyJThis second one, I was struggling for about 24 hours and just messed up all my configurations I guess15:11
rob0phalor: actually Ubuntu 20.04 and later default to nftables, not iptables15:11
phalorrob0: Cool. :)  I just want UFW working :D15:11
rob0I don't know what ufw does, and cannot help with it.15:12
phalorUFW is Ubuntu's official firewall, developed by Canonical. It stands for Uncomplicated FireWall. Its a wrapper for iptables.15:12
rob0(As a #netfilter channel operator myself, we do not recommand using ufw.)15:12
phalorWell that's biased. :)15:13
oerheksUFW is fine standard for ubuntu15:13
rob0I'm all too familiar with ufw.  When people come to #netfilter with ufw questions we send them here.  And often #ubuntu sends them back to #netfilter :)15:14
ographalor, try asking in #netfilter15:14
ogra😛15:14
phalorLMFAO15:14
ogra(j/k)15:14
phalorI was in there last night, they are a great lot.15:14
oerheksmaybe your provider is blocking port 2515:15
oerhekswhich is oke15:15
phalorNah, this is my own server.15:15
phalorHow can I output iptables?15:16
ograsudo iptables -L15:16
rob0yuck15:16
phalorThanks15:16
oerheks'any' isn't a valid port15:16
rob0iptables -L is useless15:16
rob0but again, I'm not going to help with ufw :)15:17
rob0To see iptables rules, "iptables-save -c"15:17
rob0phalor: what was the high level goal, to send mail outbound from your MTA?  Many providers do indeed block outbound port 25.15:18
phalorI have 1 temporary change to iptables actually. I just rebooted and will test it without the change.15:18
phalorrob0, it is to send it to my home server behind CG-NAT.15:19
ographalor, well, did you remove "port any" yet ? as jdstrand suggested above ?15:19
phalorYes ogra, I figured it out myself: https://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/o2KS7ms3ByYE.png15:19
rob0send "it", what is "it"?15:20
phalormy VPS15:20
phalorThis problem is on my VPS15:20
phalorI am prerouting interface ens3 to send to my home server which is tunnled to the VPS.15:21
phalorI am wondering if this is causing a problem with UFW, though I think not. UFW shouldn't know.15:21
phalorens3 is normally the VPS's WAN IP.15:22
phalorI am prerouting with iptables ense3 to 192.168.2.115:22
phalorI am now going to test with without touching iptables. brb15:22
=== Rahoul8 is now known as Rahoul
phalorNup. The problem is 200% UFW15:29
phalorDid anyone actually look at my picture? It contains the commands I used for UFW, the user configuration file for UFW, and output of syslog showing what UFW is doing.15:30
phalorhttps://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/o2KS7ms3ByYE.png15:30
oerhekswhy a picture .. txt is more convenient15:31
phalorIts easier to put it all together15:31
NeilRGhow do I select the font weight in the console?15:32
phalorThat IP address '157...' is an online port scanning website. iptables is successfully prerouting it through my WAN IP address to 192.168.1.1, but the firewall won't allow it?15:33
phalorIs this a bug?15:33
lotuspsychjenot too many ufw bugs exist15:33
phalorsorry 192.168.2.115:33
phalorlotuspsychje: Perhaps I have found one.15:34
phalorCould UFW be detecting the packet as being prerouted?15:34
phalorAnd blocking it?15:34
oerheksor your VPS..15:36
phalorNo mate, its running a stock installation of Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS.15:36
phalorI installed it myself15:36
phalorI was thinking earlier today maybe I should just use iptables, but UFW is a nice tool I was hoping to use.15:37
Night-Owl-No-Souhello, i've "curl" program installed as snap on my system, i don't remember if i had it as indepen. for some other program - is there a way to know what program uses curl on the system? or what are the consequences if i removed curl?15:37
phalorThis silence is making me feel better because I am starting to feel its not me.15:38
phalorI think its going to require a nerd with a laptop covered in distro stickers to solve this. lol15:41
Night-Owl-No-Soui have a fireball cover on my laptop back15:41
phalorNight-Owl-No-Sou all good15:42
phalorI have a fireball sticker on the side door of my Honda :)15:42
Night-Owl-No-Soulet's just wait beside our fireball until someone answers our questions '=D15:43
phalorWhat is concerning is that it appears that it is Linux itself that is the problem. UFW just sets Linux and that is what it has done.15:47
phalorActually UFW could be reporting wrong.15:49
phalorso i turned off UFW on the VPS and traffic hit my server at home fine.16:01
phalorPLEASE someone HELP!!! 1!16:01
leftyfb!patience | phalor16:02
ubottuphalor: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/16:02

leftyfbphalor: what is your issue exactly? Put it all one line and start with Ubuntu release, kernel, hardware installed on (local, hosted, VPS, etc) and the issue you're having with any pastebin'd error logs16:05
phalorIts really easy. I have set Ubuntu's firewall to let something through and its not letting it through: https://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/o2KS7ms3ByYE.png16:06

leftyfbphalor: and why is that?16:08
phalorOnce I disable the UFW service, it works.16:08

Pwnnaahh16:12
Pwnnaok thanks a lot16:12
ogayotphalor: in your screen capture, the IN and OUT interfaces are different. I don't have experience with ufw but IMO that seems to indicate that the traffic is blocked in the forwarding chains ; rather than the input chains16:26
phalorThanks ogayot. I will study this now16:27
phalorDo you mean source and destination?16:28
phalorThe first section of the screen shot is the command I used for UFW, the second section is the user settings file that resulted from running the command, and the third section is syslog.16:29
phalorthe IN (source) and OUT (destination) are correct in syslog.16:29
phalorOh, you mean "IN=ens3" and "OUT=ppp0".16:30
phalorIt shouldn't be blocking anything in on interface 'ens3'.16:30
phalor'from any' in the command I ran means from any IP address.16:31
phalor'ens3' is the WAN IP address which I have set iptables to preroute it to 192.168.2.1.16:32
phalorWhen I switch off UFW, it does exactly that.16:32
phalorSo iptables is ruled out16:32
ogayotyes, I meant IN=ens3 OUT=ppp0. Seems to be that ufw is blocking routing between these two interfaces.16:33
phalorYes, but it shouldn't.16:33
phalorI wonder if there is a way to make UFW give debugging information16:36
ogayotphalor: can you pastebin the output of iptables -S -v ?16:38
ogayot$ ufw status verbose16:42
ogayotseems to be good too16:42
phalorogayot here is the information you requested. Sorry I couldn't pastebin it. I am running it from Ubuntu Server without a GUI.16:49
phalorhttps://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/BPhxiAw52oBl.png16:49
rob0phalor: in your brief visit to #netfilter you seem to have missed the channel /topic16:49
urkJust booted up, and don't see a login prompt with Pop_OS.  It worked earlier this morning.  All I see is a calendar and volumr control on the right.  Any udea how to fix this?16:50
phalorogayot I will try that verbose command shortly. I am just reading the man page about logging.16:50
rob0Why would lack of GUI mean you can't make text pastebins?16:50
rob0is this something like vmware, with a console that lacks copy/paste ability?16:50
phalorrob0 I never see channel topics. :)16:50
leftyfb!popos | urk16:50
ubottuurk: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle)16:50
leftyfbphalor:    echo "do a thing" | nc termbin.com 9999   # this works without having to take screenshots or copy and paste16:52
phalorrob0 the terminal is not very practical. That's why Microsoft Windows is such a success. :)16:52
rob0If so (no copy from console) you could use SSH and connect with an ssh client.  Windows has openssh.16:52
leftyfbphalor: false16:52
rob0If you want help with doing more complex server tasks, you need to learn how to use a terminal.16:52
phalorlefyfb: Its better we not get into Windows vs Ubuntu debates. The channel will hate me.16:53
* rob0 has nothing against Windows, especially since they added wsl.exe16:53
phalorrob0 what is wsl.exe again mate?16:54
urkubottu:  pop_os is Ubuntu, and there is no dedicated channel here for pop_os.  Packages for this distribution come from Ubuntu repository.16:54
urkI'm running gnome.16:54
phalorrob0 and by the way. Microsoft burnt me in Windows 10 and I'll never buy another Microsoft product ever again.16:54
phalorIts support burnt me as well. But anway.16:54
leftyfburk: sorry, we can only support official Ubuntu releases here. Not derivatives.16:54
oerheksurk,  sure there is..#System7616:55
rob0well, they make it hard to avoid buying Windows, if you want to buy a laptop.  That's how they caught me.16:55
phalorrob0 you win some you lose some- that's life.16:55
lotuspsychjeofftopic rob0 phalor16:55
rob0Anyway phalor, I'd suggest first trying to get up to speed on basic user tasks.  Those skills will help you with more advanced server tasks.16:57
phalorrob0 I have all the neccessary skills I need to setup my goal. Once it is setup, I will never need to touch the server except for updates. :)16:58
phalorI had a look at UFW's logging levels. Increasing levels does not increase explanations, just logging policy.16:59
leftyfbphalor: if that were the case, you wouldn't be asking for help and taking screenshots16:59
rob0^^ this16:59
phalorleftyfb: I haven't asked for help taking a screenshot. ;)17:00
oerhekswhy not paste as txt ?17:00
oerheksoh, you don't want to17:00
phaloroerheks correct. I don't find the command line very practical.17:01
leftyfboerheks: because they do not possess the neccessary skills they need to setup their goal ;)17:01
phalorSome people enjoy typing out a command to unzip a file. I like just double clicking it.17:02
ogayotphalor: -P FORWARD DROP     <-- I'm confident ufw is configured to block routing17:02
leftyfbphalor: you're dealing with a publicly accessible server environment and particularly it's firewall rules. This isn't a zip file17:03
phalorogayot. Hang on, let me check sysctl.17:03
=== beaver is now known as pong
rob0a DROP policy in FORWARD might not mean anything, if there are preceding rules to ACCEPT the packets which are wanted.17:04
ogayottrue but I see no forward rules having -j ACCEPT for this kind of traffic (although I can't easily search from the screen capture)17:07
phalorogayot I used the command 'ufw status verbose' that you suggested and found something of interest. It said it is denying 'routed'. Well, I don't know if you saw me say earlier, but the ens3 interface is prerouted. So it looks like this is where the problem is.17:09
phalorogayot where did you find '-PFORWARD DROP'? From that iptables output?17:10
ogayotphalor: second line in your screen capture. And yes, if routed/forwarded traffic is dropped by default, you need a rule to accept it.17:11
oerheksphpaste the txt, much easier17:11
oerheksphalor ^17:11
oerhekssee?17:12
phalorSo now I need to know how to allow UFW to let through routed traffic.17:12
phalorUFW really needs to be enhanced to give this information in syslog.17:12
phalorI can't believe this.17:13
leftyfbphalor: ufw status verbose | nc termbin.com 999917:13

phalorleftyfb: We got to the bottom of the problem without termbin. This is all that matters. :)17:14
oerheksJoel, good thing yo don't hear your mic in your speakers; use a headset17:15
Joeloerheks might want to re-read what I said :)17:15
phalorI am going to take a break now. Be back in 10.17:16
oerheksJoel, because of your headset.. what program are you using?17:17
Joelgetting comfort noise in a headset is a pretty normal thing. I'm using a 3.5m jack, it affects all programs.17:17
phalorSuccess17:41
phalorAll I had to do was put the word 'route' after 'ufw'.17:42
phalorogayot you're a legend mate!17:42
phalorUFW needs serious work17:43
phalorCanonical needs to stop wasting time with new logo's and fix docs17:43
Joellooks like I need the module-loopback with pulse audio.17:43
phalorAnd UFW needs to give reasons for its actions in syslog17:43
phalorI spent 24 hours on this, it could have been avoided. I'll never admit this to anyone in the Windows world, they'll laugh at me17:44
phalorWell, thanks everyone for your time and input.17:44
phalorand energy17:44
phalorGood bye17:45
rob0haha17:48
oerheksit could have been avoided. true. paste it.17:48
giggles[m]people in the Windows world deal with all sorts of stupid problems; the difference between stupid problems in Linux and Windows is that after wasting a day in Linux the problem is solved and after wasting a day in Windows you decide to live with the problem17:49
rob0And the only reason you waste so much time on it is when you refuse to heed good suggestions.17:50
rob0Much as I loathe to defend ufw, in this case the problem was the user, not ufw.17:51
leftyfbrob0: don't worry, they'll be back17:52
rob0no doubt, sigh17:54
jhutchinsClearly whoever is in charge should be notified.17:57
vimeshey guys not entirely an ubuntu quesiton, but how can i get hexchat to minimize to tray rather than quitting entirely when i close it top right?18:10
leftyfbvimes: first result on google for "hexchat minimize to tray" https://hexchat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#how-do-i-minimize-hexchat-to-the-system-tray-notification-area18:12
vimesright, thanks for that i saw the alerts option mentioned there, but i dont see any switch to minimize to tray. the page mentions an extension, which also errors out during installation on 20.0418:20
oerheksdon't use the X, use _ to minimize? also, settings > alerts > enable system tray icon/minimize to tray/close to tray is available18:23
oerheksthe extention mentions is default installed, so ..18:23
vimesi dont see the setting in alerts for some reason. perhaps i need to reinstall hexchat.18:25

oerheksare you still on 20.04?18:38
vimesyes18:38
oerheksoke, impish 21.10 gives 2.14.3, use the snap 2.14.2 ? https://snapcraft.io/hexchat18:39
oerheksor find the flatpak18:39
vimessorry forgive my noobness. you mean i should downgrade to 2.14.2? i'm currently running 2.14.318:42
oerhekswhat does cat /etc/issue # show?18:42

oerheks 2.14.3-3ubuntu0.20.04.2  vs  2.14.3-618:44
vimesokay! let me try that. gonna backup the serverlist and install the ubuntu 20.04 version18:54
vimesheh no luck with that. oh well, i tried. i'll just avoid closing the client i guess lol19:02
kendarHello room, Running 20.04 lts server on install it is switching from my vga to dvi just after it starts up i got a adaptor from a second computer in the house.. but i cant leave it that way, what do i have to edit for it to stay on vga on bootup. for the most part this will be a headless server for files but as we all know sometimes we need access19:04
kendarto it directly... my google-fu as my wife calls it sucks.19:04
oerhekskendar, see if there are options in your Bios?19:05
kendaroerheks i have it set to only vga. .. but it seams to override it.19:06
jhutchinsAre you running a GUI on a server?  If so, why?19:06
jhutchinskendar: ^19:06
leftyfbkendar: don't plug anything into the DVI port19:07
kendarjhutchins no i am not i cant even see the login screen i get the first few lines of bootup then it switches to the dvi19:07
kendari have nothing pluged in and it still swatches19:07
kendarswitches19:08
oerheksweird switch , check for a bios update?19:08
jhutchinsIf it's showing the first few lines of the boot process it's past the BIOS/EFI stage.19:08
kendarits a oddball board it runs a intel laptop chip in itx formfactor19:08
ravagekendar, can you get into grub console and enter "vbeinfo" ?19:09
jhutchinskendar: This is despite a valid VGA display being connected and nothing on the DVI?19:09
kendarravage yes i can19:10
ravagecan also be videoinfo19:10
ravagetry both19:10
kendarjhutchins yep19:10
ravageit should output the devices it sees19:10
kendarnever though of that hold on19:11
jhutchinskendar: I think I'd check for a BIOS/EFI update (even though it's getting past that stage).19:12
kendarso it does just the same thing it starts on the vga and then switches over to the dvi after the first 20 or so lines are displayed19:15
oerheksbios issue, my bet.19:15
ravagedid you get the list of devices?19:15
kendarravage witch devices?19:16
ravagewhen you enter that command in grub19:16
ravageit should output the devices it sees19:16
kendarravage yes19:16
kendarone moment19:16
ravagesomething like VGA-1 and/or LCDS-1 HDMI-119:17
kendarvbeinfo command not found  videoinfo i get 3 adapter  1. "bochs pci video drvier" 2. cirrus clgd 5446 pci video drver 3. efi gop driver , and i get 3 display modes for number 319:24
ravagewould have hoped for some names19:24
ravagebut you say you only want VGA19:24
kendartyah19:24
ravageso just try these kernel parameters and see if it changes anything: "video=VGA-1:e video=LVDS-1:d video=HDMI-1:d"19:25
kendaryah just incase i screw up some network settings and have to fix them at termail19:25
ravagemaybe try them in grub first so you dont mess more up19:25
ravageput them in the config in case it works19:25
NeilRGI can't seem to get the powerline fonts to work in my console even though I've installed them, and I'm selecting them.  For some reason the lock symbol doesn't show up19:30

kendarravage called a buddy that knows some stuff.. he said it could be my kvm causeing the prolbem do to the display not talking back to the system i am going to dig out a spare cable and see where that leads.. back in a few20:01
jhutchinskendar: Yeah, a KVM switch can prevent the "I'm here" signal from the monitor from reaching the video card.20:02
jhutchinsEspecially if it's a virtual switch that is supposed to detect which device is live, or one that switches via a keyboard command.20:03
kendarthis kvm has been problematic since day 120:03
semi am getting an error at boot, "Failed to start Load AppArmor profiles". Investigating the app armor service, I see "Could not open '/var/lib/snapd/apparmor/snap-confine"20:04

semwhat is snap-confine20:06
semif I don't have snapd (lubuntu) can I just apt purge snapd?20:07

enigma9o7[m]Yes.20:08

jongstacan someone point me to instructions for downgrading an aws ubuntu kernel from 5.11 to 5.4?22:43
Bashing-omjongsta: I "assume" aws is same: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Ubuntu_18.04_LTS_-_Bionic_Beaver .22:48
jongstaBashing-om: problem with a lot of these instructions is it assumes you are able to watch a boot screen and interrupt to change options there22:51
Bashing-omjongsta: Ouch - there is that - sorry that I did not think this through.22:54
ograif you can boot the system and still have both kernels installed, just uninstall the one you dont want22:55
enigma9o7[m]I would install the one I want, modify grub config to make it default, boot into it, t hen remove the others jongsta22:57
enigma9o7[m]that woudlnt require interrupting boot22:57
jongstaogra: part of my question is "how do i go about installing the right 5.4 kernel for ubuntu 20.04 in aws"22:57
ograah22:58
jongstai can probably figure out how to remove the others but i also need to figure out how to set grub to boot the right kerenl22:58
ograin /etc/default/grub ... there is GRUB_DEFAULT=22:58
ograyou change the number and run sudo update-grub ... it defaults to 0 ...22:59
jongstahow do i know which number corresponds with the right kernel version?23:01
enigma9o7[m]I personally use grub-customizer so never bothered to learn those details....23:02
ograjongsta, you can use strings ... 🙂23:03
jongstajust tried intalling it23:03
jongstabut i'm using server so heh23:03
ograit isnt limited to numbers23:03
jongstahow do i know what strings are valid?23:04
ogratake a look a /boot/grub/grub.cfg (do never edit it, this is generated !!) you are looking for "menuentry" entries23:06
jongstai'm just cycling through with reboots and think i figured ito ut23:07
ograrisky but works too 🙂23:07
jongstathis is a test image so no biggie23:08
ograhttps://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/Simple-configuration.html23:09
ogra(about using strings)23:09
jongstaah, that's helpful ogra, thanks23:10
jongstai'm at #10 and still haven't gotten the proper kernel version to boot23:24
robot56why is ubuntu daily23:27
robot56so buggy23:27
jongstai'm starting to think that cycling through numbers isn't working23:27
enigma9o7[m]You could try grub customizer, assuming you have x installed....23:50
enigma9o7[m]If you dont wanna keep messing around with reading docs23:50
enigma9o7[m]And robo, the reason it's buggy is it's not released yet, its specifically avaialble for testers to report bugs.  Released versions tend to have much shorter bug lists.23:51
jongstaenigma9o7[m]: i don't have x installed23:53
enigma9o7[m]ah ok.  Yeah then figuring out the correct synatx, good luck, I cant help cuz I'd have to look it up myself and without being able to trial and error I dunno.23:55
