| 00:39 | NickSerb | not quite |
| 00:39 | ElfStone | no he did it himself |
| 00:39 | ElfStone | he set the ban |

| 00:40 | NickSerb | yes |
| 00:40 | ElfStone | he had to unset it |
| 00:40 | NickSerb | automatically |

| 08:56 | k3rnel | can i boot multiple Linodes with seperate IP's at the same time? |
| 08:56 | k3rnel | or do i have to order extra ips |
| 08:58 | k3rnel | (08:58:33) —› found (3) clone(s) in #linode on OFTC |
| 08:58 | k3rnel | (08:58:33) —› (8%) of the users in (#linode) are clones |
| 09:00 | k3rnel | boxstats |
| 09:00 | adamg | as long as you have multiple linodes yes |
| 09:01 | k3rnel | ok so i dont need another ip |
| 09:01 | k3rnel | it just assignes another one |
| 09:01 | adamg | but for each linode account you have you can only boot one config profile |
| 09:01 | k3rnel | oic |
| 09:02 | k3rnel | so if i wanted 2 boxes up |
| 09:02 | k3rnel | i would order another ip |
| 09:02 | k3rnel | and create a new Linode |
| 09:02 | adamg | you would have to purchase 2 linode accounts |
| 09:02 | k3rnel | oic |
| 09:02 | k3rnel | so whats a new ip for? |
| 09:02 | | * k3rnel ( NoNameScript 3.8 :: by greeny & mute :: www.nnscript.de ) |
| 09:04 | adamg | for some things you need more than one ip, multiple ssl sites etc |
| 09:05 | k3rnel | k |
| 09:05 | tjfontaine | ftp sites by different names |
| 09:05 | k3rnel | if i had some customers to my site, i would definately get a linode lol. this is awesome |
| 09:07 | k3rnel | boxstats [gfx: NVIDIA GeForce4 420 Go (Toshiba)] |
| 09:12 | k3rnel | do you monitor your customers? |
| 09:13 | tjfontaine | can you be more specific in terms of 'monitor'? |
| 09:13 | k3rnel | like, do you log what my customers do? |
| 09:13 | k3rnel | i respect their privacy |
| 09:13 | k3rnel | like email and stuff |
| 09:14 | tjfontaine | well, if you become an open relay that may be an issue |
| 09:14 | k3rnel | open relay? |
| 09:14 | tjfontaine | spam relay |
| 09:14 | k3rnel | oic |
| 09:14 | tjfontaine | if you and your customers folly the TOS you'll be fine |
| 09:14 | k3rnel | should i give them your TOS? |
| 09:14 | tjfontaine | s/folly/follow/ |
| 09:15 | adamg | linode do not log any anything that happens within your linode |
| 09:15 | tjfontaine | well, they are required to follow that TOS, but if you want to add more then you should make an addendum |
| 09:16 | k3rnel | k |
| 09:17 | k3rnel | following your TOS, if i cc an email to 2 people thats considered spam... |
| 09:17 | adamg | no its not |
| 09:17 | adamg | if you where sending them un wanted stuff then yes it could |
| 09:18 | tjfontaine | the issue is where you send massive amounts of spam to many many many people |
| 09:18 | tjfontaine | and potentially get linode ips on blacklists |
| 09:19 | adamg | basically if you follow the T&C and AUP then you will not have a problem |
| 09:21 | adamg | if you or any of your customers break it then you are in trouble |

| 10:10 | ElfStone | your isp |
| 10:11 | adamg | I thought they where only a uk company |
| 10:11 | ElfStone | maybe 2-3 years |
| 10:11 | ElfStone | webhosting |
| 10:11 | ElfStone | i didn't think webhosting is set to one section of the world |
| 10:13 | adamg | in thought the only webhosting they did was for people who had net access accounts with them |
| 10:13 | ElfStone | Oh |
| 10:13 | ElfStone | i am not sure |
| 10:14 | ElfStone | but i remember they used to be a big free webhoster |
| 10:17 | ElfStone | used to have a site called daiga that they hosted |
| 10:17 | adamg | k |
| 10:17 | ElfStone | they still have the same logo |
| 10:18 | ElfStone | but lol they offer paid hosting and adsl |
| 10:20 | ElfStone | but i use 1and1 atm |
| 10:22 | adamg | for what |
| 10:23 | ElfStone | webhosting |
| 10:23 | ElfStone | untill i get my linode |

| 10:23 | adamg | oh right so you are going to get one then |

| 10:31 | adamg | right |
| 10:32 | ElfStone | have you ever used invisionboard? |
| 10:33 | adamg | no, I have heard of it though |
| 10:33 | ElfStone | what messageboard software do you prefer? |
| 10:34 | adamg | phpbb or vbullitin |
| 10:34 | adamg | sp? |
| 10:34 | ElfStone | ah okay |
| 10:34 | ElfStone | sp?? |
| 10:34 | adamg | phpbb is free and probably the most popular of the free ones |
| 10:34 | ElfStone | ah |
| 10:35 | ElfStone | InvisionBoard is free also |
| 10:35 | ElfStone | in a sense anyways |
| 10:35 | adamg | vBulletin is expensive but probably one of the best ones out there |
| 10:35 | ElfStone | they say they will never require you to pay |
| 10:35 | adamg | it all depends on what load they are going to have |
| 10:35 | ElfStone | well |
| 10:36 | ElfStone | the makers of invisionboard |
| 10:36 | ElfStone | were the makers of ikonboard |
| 10:36 | ElfStone | they have an hosting bussiness and software devlopeing |
| 10:37 | ElfStone | and they have linceses for there board software |
| 10:37 | ElfStone | for no copyright also chat built in |
| 10:37 | adamg | right and.. |
| 10:38 | ElfStone | and offical support |
| 10:38 | ElfStone | but they have a Unlimited Free Version |
| 10:40 | ElfStone | i don't know i just like it. |

| 13:01 | @inkblot | keep it to yourself |
| 13:02 | k3rnel | sry, just messing with my script... |
| 13:03 | k3rnel | hey do you know a program to invert the colors on movies? my avi player is playing it inverted |
| 13:04 | @inkblot | looks like you found one |
| 13:29 | k3rnel | found what |
| 13:30 | @inkblot | a program that will invert the colors in movies |
| 13:31 | k3rnel | i need it un-inverted |
| 13:31 | NickSerb | ha ha |
| 13:31 | k3rnel | lol |
| 13:31 | k3rnel | it plays it inverted, without any other software |
| 13:31 | @inkblot | well in that case i think want you *really* want is to fix your avi player |
| 13:31 | k3rnel | i tried it with several other players |
| 13:31 | k3rnel | its my GFX drivers i think |
| 13:32 | @inkblot | well then fix those |
| 13:32 | k3rnel | i did |
| 13:32 | @inkblot | apparently not |
| 13:32 | k3rnel | w/e |
| 13:32 | @inkblot | you too, sweetie |
| 13:32 | k3rnel | Okay... |
| 13:33 | k3rnel | When I install my OS on Linode, does it come with all the latest security patches? Or do I have to install all of them myself? |
| 13:34 | @inkblot | the image that is used is a fixed image created by caker |
| 13:34 | @inkblot | i don't know how often he recreates them |
| 13:34 | @inkblot | particularly since there are several of them |
| 13:34 | k3rnel | ok |
| 13:34 | k3rnel | caker: Are you here? |
| 13:34 | @inkblot | i would recommend bringing it fully up to date yourself |
| 13:35 | k3rnel | Ok. |
| 13:37 | k3rnel | I see on the Debian website all you do is issue an apt command. |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | that is correct |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | specifically, |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | apt-get update |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | apt-get upgrade |
| 13:38 | schweeb | <3 apt |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | or if you prefer, |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | apt-get dist-upgrade |
| 13:38 | @inkblot | (personally, i use dist-upgrade) |
| 13:39 | @inkblot | "update" will fetch new package lists and rebuild the local database of available packages |
| 13:39 | @inkblot | "upgrade" will fetch and install updated packages so long as doing so does not create conflicts |
| 13:40 | @inkblot | "dist-upgrade" will fetch and install updated packages and attempt to resolve conflicts by removing packages and/or installing replacements |
| 13:40 | @inkblot | there are other apt-get commands, as well |
| 13:40 | @inkblot | but those are the ones for updating |
| 13:41 | k3rnel | Okay, so I will just run that |
| 13:41 | k3rnel | THanks |
| 13:41 | k3rnel | So I dont specify any directory? |
| 13:41 | k3rnel | just: |
| 13:42 | k3rnel | [ hostname ]# apt-get dist-upgrade |
| 13:42 | schweeb | right |
| 13:42 | k3rnel | That's pretty simple. |
| 13:42 | schweeb | don't dist-upgrade generally |
| 13:42 | k3rnel | Should I add that to cron? |
| 13:42 | schweeb | inkblot: don't try to hurt the new users |
| 13:42 | schweeb | k3rnel: no |
| 13:42 | k3rnel | lol |
| 13:42 | k3rnel | i have never used debian |
| 13:43 | schweeb | you /could/ have it download the files for you, if you like |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | what if my users install a vuln. program |
| 13:43 | schweeb | your users can't install programs via apt |
| 13:43 | schweeb | just like every other distro |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | like, on the internet |
| 13:43 | schweeb | users can't install rpms on RH, etc... |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | if they download an old naim or something |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | like |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | tar -zxf name.tgz |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | configure |
| 13:43 | k3rnel | make |
| 13:44 | k3rnel | and its vuln |
| 13:44 | k3rnel | will that command upgrade it? |
| 13:44 | schweeb | no.... |
| 13:44 | k3rnel | So, I just let them get 0wned? |
| 13:44 | schweeb | that would be impossible |
| 13:44 | schweeb | yes |
| 13:44 | k3rnel | okay lol |
| 13:44 | schweeb | pwned for being idiots |
| 13:45 | k3rnel | yeah... |
| 13:45 | k3rnel | lol |
| 13:45 | schweeb | the reason you don't want to dist-upgrade or put it in cron is that, sometimes packages that are installed by dist-upgrade are missing dependencies and stuff |
| 13:45 | k3rnel | 7 second lag |
| 13:45 | k3rnel | my internet is going so slow |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | ahh |
| 13:46 | schweeb | and apt-get asks for input sometimes when you're upgrading |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | so it would screw it all up |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | oic |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | what about an answer file? |
| 13:46 | schweeb | how would you know what to answer? |
| 13:46 | schweeb | it's package dependant |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | oh |
| 13:46 | k3rnel | i thought it was like, do you want to instal all these: y/n |
| 13:48 | schweeb | it does that too |
| 13:48 | schweeb | but there's also debconf screens |
| 13:48 | schweeb | like "do you want to overwrite this config file" |
| 13:48 | schweeb | and it's not always a good idea to overwrite it |
| 13:48 | k3rnel | ok |
| 13:49 | k3rnel | so i run that maybe once a month, |
| 13:49 | schweeb | yea |
| 13:50 | schweeb | or when there's a known vulerability |
| 13:50 | k3rnel | why dont i just hand-patch it? |
| 13:50 | k3rnel | or will it do extra stuff |

| 13:52 | k3rnel | okay a final question... what system do you suggest i register? i am just a starting shell company. |
| 13:53 | k3rnel | but im limited on funds until i get off the ground |
| 13:53 | schweeb | just shells? |
| 13:53 | k3rnel | yes. |
| 13:53 | schweeb | is there any money in that? |
| 13:53 | k3rnel | yeah |
| 13:53 | k3rnel | i would be paying, say 20/month |
| 13:54 | k3rnel | then i charge people 7/month for a shell |
| 13:54 | schweeb | hell, I've never had a problem getting shells for free |
| 13:54 | k3rnel | and i could have 200 ysers |
| 13:54 | k3rnel | users* |
| 13:54 | schweeb | 13:54 < schweeb> hell, I've never had a problem getting shells for free |
| 13:54 | schweeb | doh |
| 13:54 | schweeb | sorry bout that |

| 13:54 | schweeb | stupid mouse keeps losing sync |
| 13:54 | | * schweeb stabs psmouse.ko |
| 13:55 | k3rnel | yeah, but most of the free shells limit you. |
| 13:55 | k3rnel | and some dont allow storing of exploits |
| 13:55 | k3rnel | which i wont be doing. |
