| Johnny1123 | Hola, Szijastok, Witam, Nichao | 20:58 |
|---|---|---|
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1123: Hello! Anything we can help you with? | 20:58 |
| Johnny1123 | In fact I'm with limited bandwith on the vessel, looking for net-tools (ifconfig) but seems like repositories are outdated. Can not connect to repository server after apt-get update. I would like to clone configuration of other computer in network to connect myself. Wifi is guarded by some kind of vpn/firewall with limited bandwith. Ethernet is not limited by bandwith - only by blacklisted type of sites. Is there any way to install tools with 40b | 21:01 |
| Johnny1123 | bandwitch left? | 21:01 |
| Johnny1123 | 40mb* | 21:01 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1123: What version of Lubuntu are you using? | 21:02 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (This might seem insignificant, but it is helpful for me to know how to answer your question.) | 21:03 |

| Johnny1124 | 21.10 | 21:06 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: OK, since you're badly bandwidth limited you won't be able to upgrade that, so let's put the old-releases repo into your sources.list | 21:06 |
| Johnny1124 | @arraybolt3[m] 21.10 | 21:07 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: Open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T, and run "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list". | 21:07 |
| Johnny1124 | done | 21:07 |

| arraybolt3[m] | Oy, copypasting stuff into IRC causes a bot to mute you, so you may be unable to talk for 60 seconds. Sorry about that, I'll keep telling you what to do in the meantime. | 21:08 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: OK, see all of those "http://c.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" URLs? Change them so they all read "http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/". | 21:08 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: Do this to every URL in the file. | 21:09 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: Let me know when that's done once the bot unmutes you. | 21:09 |
| Johnny1124 | Done. You are great. | 21:10 |
| Johnny1124 | and now apt-get update, and install net-tools as I guess :) | 21:10 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Johnny1124: Nice. OK, now you should be able to do "sudo apt install net-tools" and be up and running. (Don't run an apt update, that will chew up tons of bandwidth.) | 21:10 |
| Johnny1124 | Thanks! | 21:11 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Careful with the update! Don't wanna chew up bandwidth, you should be able to just get net-tools at this point. | 21:11 |
| arraybolt3[m] | No problem, glad to help! By the way, that version of Lubuntu is out of support, so once you get to a place where you can, back up your system and upgrade it so you stay secure. | 21:11 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (Obviously that's not a "now" thing since you've only got 40 mb of bandwidth, but whenever the opportunity presents itself, upgrading to 22.04 would be a good idea.) | 21:12 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Here's the instructions on how to upgrade: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades No need to open the link now, but just save the address somewhere since it will come in handy when you're ready to upgrade. | 21:13 |
| Johnny1124 | Thank you for your time and support. I'm very greatful. | 21:15 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Very glad to help. OK, IRC pings the server every once in a while, so probably disconnect so you can conserve as much bandwidth as possible. If you ever need help again, let us know! | 21:16 |
| Johnny1124 | :) ! Have a great day. | 21:16 |
