[00:46] New bug: #242020 in dhcp3 (main) "dhcp3-server fails to issue lease after computer has gone to sleep and woken back up" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/242020 [00:59] Hello I have a few question about hardware and where can i get a list of supported hardware. [02:11] New bug: #242027 in update-manager (main) "bug to be reported against update manager" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/242027 === shelbyscates is now known as mspankyha === mspankyha is now known as mrhanky [04:11] ok guys i need some help [04:11] uhm.. i have a server ubuntu server [04:11] and i have a backup server with ubuntu server [04:11] it backs up my main server every morn at 6am [04:12] now, i want to save on energy [04:12] so can i make my backup server hibernate, then make my main server tell it to wake up? [04:12] is that possible? [04:12] id really like to know :) [04:12] WOL? [04:12] WOL? uhm not sure what that is [04:13] i dont know much about WOL (Wake On Lan) but sounds like what you would want [04:13] oohhh [04:13] yeah that is [04:13] do you know of a tutorial or something? [04:13] :) [04:13] i think it differs bios-to-bios [04:14] but i have never done it and know next to nothing about it [04:14] you need something that can send custom icmp packets to the powered off system [04:14] and a bios that supports wol. [04:14] i can do that [04:15] let me see if my bois does... i have 3 backup server candidates so im sure one of them does! :) [04:15] thanks guys! :D [04:15] np [04:16] gl [04:25] im still deciding what kind of a game i should host on my server (originally was gunna be a MUD...then i wanted to do some sort of something that would actually get users...) ...any suggestions? [04:26] dont knock mud players ;P [04:26] im not [04:26] just saying theres too many good muds out there and im coming in too late in the game to get any users [04:27] guess the amount of bandwidht you have to your server affects what you want to runon it [04:27] 300 Mb/month iirc [04:28] errr.... [04:28] that sounded pretty low...good thing its 300 Gb/month [04:29] ;) [04:29] but its a cheap vps so its likie 256 MB ram and 10 gigs hdd and such [04:32] and i mean if i could get any builders to help me with my MUD i would stay at it...but i've been working at this for about a week or 2 and only got a fraction of a city [04:32] well...probably a week [04:33] (and i'll shutup if this is too offtopic, btw) [04:35] but if anyone has any suggestions for what to run on my server, they would be much appreciated (and yes, it is a ubuntu server :D) [04:36] shouldnt you get an idea before a server ? :P [04:36] i had one [04:37] then i after i got the server, i had a realization [04:38] so im running a MUD server and a crossfire server on there currently...but im prolly gunna take em both down if i can get a half decent idea for a server === nxvl is now known as Guest70739 === nxvl_ is now known as nxvl_work === nxvl_work is now known as nxvl [11:04] * delcoyote hi [14:17] is it possible to control access to usb devices in linux? example: I want to block all USB IDs except for 046d:c51a [15:51] mindframe: this can be done in udev [15:51] New bug: #242139 in net-snmp (main) "snmpd caused a lot error messages in dmesg" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/242139 [15:51] mindframe: look in /etc/udev/rules.d [15:52] mindframe: been a while since I played with that, there is good documentation about this on https://wiki.ubuntu.com and https://help.ubuntu.com [17:45] hey [17:45] can anyone suggest me a book to start linux from the command line === yell0w_ is now known as yell0w [18:54] is there anyway to easily search for and delete a file in a bunch of folders without manually deleting each one? [18:54] find? [18:54] nvm. i figured out i can search the mounted folder. :P [18:55] that was quick. [18:55] bash scripting is always cool [18:55] i'm getting rid of all the thumbs.db. silly windows files. [18:56] have you worked with samba at all? [18:58] yep [19:00] i have this weird inconsistency with my samba share. right now i'm just sharing a users home as one main collection of files. i can manually type in the address. smb://server/username [19:00] but when i try to find it via the network option in ubuntu it just has two shares on it. homes and print$ [19:01] homes doesnt mount. i'm thinking it might either be configured wrong or its trying to use the user name i'm logged into on the local machine [19:09] hmm. now my workgroup is empty. smb protocol is very random. even on windows. [20:01] ScottK: just an fyi, I got a notice from LP saying I'm about to expire from the clamav team :( [21:09] how secure is Ubuntu server? if i put a stock Ubuntu box on the web with LAMP how safe am i? i will have it behind a Hardware firewall [21:10] you'll have only http port open to the public [21:10] fwiw, php is patched with suhosin patch from http://www.hardened-php.net/ [21:14] if the P is PHP, you are as secure as your applications ;-) [21:14] right [21:14] and you can apply that rule to any other language [21:15] yepp. but there is only one language I mistrust on principle ;-) [21:15] anyway. lets not get into that discussion :-) [21:15] Nafallo: i agree with you, but when you think of it... most of the problems are really aplication based [21:16] yepp :-) [21:16] php is, kind of, proof of concept, but, to be honest, it isn't much worse than other languages [21:17] its widely popular, so of course it gets more CANs [21:17] right... [21:17] meh... long night in front of me... [21:18] i'll convert dbmail into dovecot... [21:18] :-) [21:22] it would be great to have mod_security in apache, by default [21:22] too bad mod_security is still gpl2 [21:24] o! o! changes!

[21:58] ScottK: everything is going fine [21:58] yeah, same here [21:58] (which explains why I haven't signed your GPG key among other things) [21:58] this days are really busy [21:58] :D [21:59] well i was going to ask you something, but, don't mind [21:59] :P [21:59] If it's a quick question, go ahead. [21:59] nxvl: ^^ [21:59] well [21:59] Is anyone here actually running dovecot for sasl with Postfix? [22:00] it's a not short time demanding thing [22:00] Not even the asking? [22:00] so nevermind [22:00] :D [22:00] well [22:00] i was going to ask you to review augeas [22:00] :P [22:00] Ah. [22:00] Probably not today. [22:00] and it's not a simple package [22:01] is a multiple binary + library one [22:01] My suggestion would be ask sistpoty to do it. He's really good on library packaging. [22:01] but doesn't mind, if you find some time i will be really grateful if you took a look, even a quick one :D [22:02] ScottK: thanks! i will [22:02] * ScottK adds it TODO. [22:03] sommer_: Are you using Postfix with Dovecot for SASL? [22:04] sommer_: can you please test augeas i need some sysadmins opinions on it [22:04] sommer_: it has some test cases on the web page, and a test environment [22:04] sommer_: so if you have time, please test it and send me some feedback [22:26] hey guys i have an old dell running ubuntu server dapper drake and im setting up wake from lan, and now that i have it installed, i cant figure out for the life of me how to get my system to hibernate from the command line!
