| 00:00 | <ajmitch> | avg of ~230ms ping time, but that's hardly unusual for me :) |
| 00:00 | <tronix> | :) |
| 00:00 | <ajmitch> | NZ is at the end of some long bits of string |
| 00:00 | <tronix> | normal day, packet loss is close to 0. when it was nasty, was 30-40% |
| 00:00 | <tronix> | now about 6ish |
| 00:00 | <tronix> | I use mtr which combines ping and traceroute and calculates a packet loss percentage |
| 00:01 | <tronix> | and let it run for long enough that it gives accurate % numbers |
| 00:01 | <ajmitch> | yes, I'm using mtr as well |
| 00:01 | <ajmitch> | and seeing 0% loss |
| 00:01 | <ajmitch> | over only 2 minutes, admittedly, but I'll leave it running |
| 00:01 | <tronix> | wonder who on these hosts caused some *hat to go nuts. ;) |
| 00:02 | <ajmitch> | probably someone being offensive on irc ;) |
| 00:02 | <tronix> | hahaha |
| 00:02 | [~] | tronix stops making whack-a-mole comments ;) |
| 00:02 | <ajmitch> | "zomg im gonna p4k3t j00!!!!" |
| 00:03 | <tronix> | hahaha |
| 00:03 | [~] | ajmitch remembers when smurf was popular a few years ago\ |
| 00:03 | <tronix> | ugh. |
| 00:03 | <ajmitch> | yeah |
| 00:03 | <tronix> | oodles o' fun. (working at a large provider) |
| 00:04 | [~] | ajmitch was in high school at the time |
| 00:04 | <ajmitch> | so yeah.. |
| 00:04 | <tronix> | didn't miss much from the provider POV. :-) |
| 00:04 | <ajmitch> | I knew a few silly people |
| 00:04 | <tronix> | hahaha can imagine |
| 00:05 | <ajmitch> | they barely understood the basics of networking, but they could run a script! |
| 00:05 | <tronix> | hahahaha |
| 00:05 | <@mikegrb> | lolz |
| 00:05 | <taupehat> | lol |
| 00:05 | <taupehat> | hey |
| 00:05 | <taupehat> | it got all better! |
| 00:05 | <tronix> | for now. the current mole has been sufficiently whacked. :P |
| 00:05 | <npmr> | bedtime for asshat in orange county |

| 00:06 | <taupehat> | ahh, orange county |
| 00:07 | <taupehat> | was there recently, and was happy to be just passing through |
| 00:07 | <taupehat> | which, at 92mph, didn't take all that long :) |
| 00:07 | <tronix> | you mean the freeways were empty? ::amazed:: ;) |
| 00:07 | <npmr> | it is an earthly hell |
| 00:07 | <taupehat> | tronix: HOV lane :)_ |
| 00:08 | <tronix> | hahaha |
| 00:08 | <npmr> | hypothesis: script kiddie ddosing HE |
| 00:08 | <tronix> | npmr: that's the strange thing; I don't see the packet loss (when it's bad) |
| 00:08 | <tronix> | on the HE side. |
| 00:08 | <npmr> | evidence: lots of packets which suddenly stopped at 11 PM PST |
| 00:08 | <tronix> | hmmm. |
| 00:08 | <ajmitch> | closest I've been to orange county is SF :) |
| 00:08 | <tronix> | hahahaha |

| 00:22 | <tronix> | was better for a while, indeed |
| 00:23 | <tronix> | was. :) |
| 00:23 | <@caker> | ok, it's outgoing |
| 00:23 | <tronix> | ugh |

| 00:24 | <tronix> | far from it be from me to argue *that* one. ;) |
| 00:24 | [~] | tronix hmms and nukes a few extraneous words |
| 00:26 | <ajmitch> | hm, so that's why I haven't seen problems, if it's outgoing |
| 00:26 | <taupehat> | makes sense |
| 00:26 | <ajmitch> | though outgoing flooding is probably worse for caker |
| 00:26 | <ajmitch> | but easier to control |
| 00:26 | <taupehat> | yep |
| 00:35 | <tronix> | definitely would explain why I didn't see the loss on the HE side. |
| 00:36 | <tronix> | looks good at moment. |

| 12:42 | <void0> | Hey, Does anyone know the approx amount of time it would take to resize a 18GB ext3 partition to 24GB using the LPM? |
| 12:55 | <void0> | Should a 6GB resize take over an hour to complete? |
| 12:55 | <Darxus> | what's lpm? |
| 12:56 | <tierra> | I've had a 6GB resize take 30 minutes before I think... but that stuff is very tempermental to what else is happening on the host |
| 12:56 | <tierra> | Darxus: Linode Platform Manager (the web administration) |
| 12:56 | <Darxus> | I'm surprised it can take that long when image creation is almost instant |
| 12:57 | <npmr> | image creation makes a sparse file |
| 12:57 | <void0> | Im just hoping something didnt go wrong and mess up my disk image. |
| 12:57 | <Darxus> | void0: why, you do have backups, right? :) |
| 12:58 | <npmr> | void0, what filesystem is on that image? |
| 12:58 | <void0> | I do, but spending the rest of the day restoring while my customers call to complain about the downtime is not something I wanna deal with. |
| 12:58 | <void0> | ext3 |
| 12:58 | <npmr> | i'd open a ticket |
| 12:59 | <npmr> | an hour for that is getting a little long |
| 12:59 | <void0> | 1 hour 15 minutes and rising |
| 13:06 | <@mikegrb> | 18 -> 24 is more important then the 6gb difference |
| 13:07 | [~] | mikegrb takes a look |
| 13:08 | <@mikegrb> | yah it's still running |
| 13:09 | <void0> | ok good |
| 13:09 | <void0> | wanted to make sure it wasnt messed up |
| 13:09 | <@mikegrb> | the disk image size has been increased, it's resizing the disk file system itself currently |
| 13:10 | <void0> | ok |
| 13:10 | <void0> | thanks |

| 15:43 | <npmr> | dpkg --get-selections |
| 15:44 | <npmr> | see also: --set-selections |
| 15:45 | <gpd> | sweet - thanks npmr |
| 15:45 | <npmr> | np |
| 15:46 | [~] | npmr has used --set-selections before in a recovery from backups |
| 15:46 | <gpd> | would you do as it suggests -- ie. run delect and choose Install? |
| 15:46 | <npmr> | (/var/lib/dpkg/status was, of course, the source data) |
| 15:46 | <gpd> | or will apt-get update just do it? |
| 15:46 | <npmr> | hmmm |
| 15:47 | <npmr> | apt-get install --reinstall, probably |
| 15:47 | <npmr> | give it a list of packages derived from $(dpkg --get-selections) |
| 15:47 | <gpd> | I am tring to migrate a machine from 64bit to 32bit as too much pain in 64 bit land |
| 15:48 | <npmr> | like say: dpkg --get-selections | awk '{print $1}' | xargs apt-get install --reinstall |
| 15:50 | <gpd> | dpkg --get-selections |
| 15:50 | <gpd> | apt-get update |
| 15:50 | <gpd> | # dpkg --set-selections <myselections |
| 15:50 | <gpd> | # apt-get -u dselect-upgrade |
| 15:50 | <npmr> | hmmm |
| 15:51 | <npmr> | yeah, probably |
| 15:51 | <gpd> | http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/quick-reference/ch-package.en.html#s-record |
| 15:52 | <npmr> | ooh, debconf-get-selections |
| 15:53 | <npmr> | that sounds like a good idea |
| 15:53 | <npmr> | it's been years since i've used dselect for anything |
| 15:53 | <npmr> | i don't remember what "dselect update" does, exactly |
| 15:54 | <npmr> | but everything else in that recipe looks good |
| 15:54 | <npmr> | is it the same as running "apt-get update"? |
| 15:54 | <gpd> | I've never heard of debconf - so that one is also a mystery |
| 15:55 | <gpd> | oh -- that is the answers to all the dpkg install questions... |
| 15:55 | <npmr> | debconf is the thing that asks you configuration questions when you install packages |
| 15:55 | <npmr> | and stores the answers |
| 15:55 | <gpd> | makes sense :D |
| 15:55 | [~] | npmr nods |
| 15:56 | <gpd> | anyone here go to SCALE over the weekend? |
| 15:56 | <npmr> | also, apt-get -u dselect-upgrade.... not familiar with that particular mode of apt-get |
| 15:57 | <npmr> | ah ha, that's way better than my pipe magic and install --reinstall |
| 15:57 | <gpd> | It seems that the set-selections just sets the state -- that dselect then acts on. dselect-upgrade is just a way of doing the dselect install in apt (which must be good) |
| 15:58 | <gpd> | Have you used Apt On CD ? |
| 15:58 | <gpd> | http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/ |
| 15:58 | <gpd> | someone recommended that as an option |
| 15:59 | <npmr> | set-selections goes behind dselect's back and twiddles the package status directly |
| 15:59 | <npmr> | never tried that |
| 15:59 | <gpd> | looks supergui |
| 16:00 | <npmr> | yeah, looks like a sort of norton ghost-like thing |
| 16:00 | <npmr> | maybe that's what you need |

| 16:01 | <npmr> | but saving your selections from the source system, setting them on the target system |
| 16:01 | <npmr> | and then imposing those selections with dselect-upgrade |
| 16:01 | <npmr> | ... that should do it |
| 16:01 | <gpd> | I agree. On the case now -- just installing new system |
| 16:01 | <npmr> | it may involve a lot of downloading in that last step, though |
| 16:01 | <gpd> | This is good from chapter 3.4: |
| 16:01 | <gpd> | Enlightenment with these commands will save a person from the eternal karmic struggle of upgrade hell and let him reach Debian nirvana. :-) |

| 18:03 | <@linbot> | msmiffy: *click* |
| 18:07 | <gpd> | wow - just discovered the mirrors.kernel.org ubuntu repository -- 6044kB/s 56s |
| 18:18 | <msmiffy> | Did you do a traceroute to see how far away it is? Like in the same rack? |
| 18:18 | <ajmitch> | ah, ubuntu |
| 18:20 | <gpd> | not easy to traceroute when they block pings :( |
| 18:21 | <msmiffy> | Ach, the ratbags! |
| 18:21 | <msmiffy> | Blockin' ICMP, 'tis unsporting! |
| 18:22 | <gpd> | agreed. |
| 18:22 | <gpd> | but at those speeds i am not complaining too much |
| 18:23 | [~] | msmiffy does perl -e "print 6044/56" ... 107.928571428571 kbps! |
| 18:23 | [~] | ajmitch wonders why msmiffy is doing a division |
| 18:24 | <ajmitch> | it's already in kBps |
| 18:24 | <gpd> | 56 seconds remaining for that apt-get dist-upgrade |
| 18:24 | [~] | msmiffy turns fat, bald and yellow and cries "Doh!" |
| 18:24 | <gpd> | which on us.ubuntu.com was going to take over 1.5 hours |
| 18:26 | <gpd> | npmr: that recipe worked a treat :) |
| 19:02 | <gpd> | any idea where smbpasswd stores the passwords? |
| 19:05 | <HoopyCat> | hmm, i'm pretty sure there's a file in /etc, but it's been awhile since i've used samba... |
| 19:13 | <gpd> | /var/lib/samba/passdb.tdb it seems |
| 19:15 | <HoopyCat> | alright, so much for my guess. ;-) |
| 19:17 | <msmiffy> | Actually, I'd imagine that it would depend on the build/distro, so HoopyCat may still be correct... |
| 19:18 | <HoopyCat> | i'd assume ubuntu, which is debianesque and therefore would match the last system i used samba on. so i'm pretty sure i'm wrong. |
| 19:43 | <ajmitch> | depends what it's set to use for passwords as well |
| 19:44 | <ajmitch> | since there's also /etc/samba/smbpasswd |
