| 00:33 | <corporeal> | i assume i can only have one active linode profile active at once, even if im not using all of my mem/storage/bandwidth? |
| 00:33 | <guinea-pig> | yes |
| 00:33 | <corporeal> | suckage :-p |
| 00:33 | * | corporeal needs more money |
| 00:35 | <Talman> | heh |
| 00:37 | <corporeal> | is there a way to use unionfs on these vps's? |
| 00:41 | <Talman> | You would need a kernel module for unionfs, would you not? |
| 00:42 | <corporeal> | i think so. |
| 00:42 | <corporeal> | so im guessing not |
| 00:42 | <corporeal> | at least with uml |
| 00:45 | <corporeal> | what i want is a single root image but use unionfs to layer another disk image on top of root |
| 00:46 | <corporeal> | read-only root image |

| 00:57 | <bd_> | the new xen kernel has module support |
| 00:57 | <bd_> | so you could try that (it might take a while to be transferred to xen though) |

| 08:49 | <zeroday> | give it 24 hrs, its usually less then that though |

| 08:49 | <@caker> | huh? it takes 15 minutes |

| 15:00 | <argoe> | oh ok. well. i'm thinking of getting a wildcard ssl cert but have never done so and i wasn't sure if i still need unique IPs for each sub-domain |
| 15:00 | <argoe> | i'm thinking I do |
| 15:00 | <argoe> | in which case i'm debating whether to get wildcard or just a few individual certs |
| 15:01 | <mwalling_> | i thought it was one ip per sslcert |
| 15:01 | <argoe> | i only need to secure 5 subdomains at the moment |
| 15:01 | <argoe> | ya i think it is too, mwalling_ but i've never used wildcard so i just wasn't sure |
| 15:02 | <mwalling_> | brb... ice just puled the AC out the window |

| 15:27 | <ardee> | Does Linode have a phone number to call to ask pre-sales questions? |
| 15:36 | <anderiv> | there are plenty of people here, though, that can probably answer your questions. |
| 15:36 | <argoe> | anderiv: so you don't think I need multiple IPs or that I do? |
| 15:36 | <Talman> | What are you doing with your linode, argoe? |
| 15:37 | * | Talman has a secondary IP (konomi) for VPN. |
| 15:37 | <anderiv> | argoe: I'm honestly not sure. I've never had to run more than one SSL site on an IP... |
| 15:37 | <Talman> | Oh, hmm. |
| 15:37 | * | Talman tries to remember, people were saying that you can do SSL vhosts now, but you need a wildcard SSL certificate. |
| 15:37 | <argoe> | Talman: i'm hosting multiple secure subdomains and want to know if i need unique IPs for each when using a wildcard ssl cert. |
| 15:38 | <Talman> | • argoe: I am not sure either, and would suggest getting the IP for now, if you are running production and need it up NOW. • |
| 15:38 | <argoe> | Talman: I'm leaning that way as well |
| 15:38 | <@mikegrb> | argoe: if the multiple sites are all subdomains of the same domain the wildcard cert is for, then no |
| 15:39 | <argoe> | mikegrb: no, I don't need unique IPs for each subdomain to do SSL? |
| 15:39 | <@mikegrb> | right |
| 15:39 | <@mikegrb> | the only reason you need multiple ips is if you need multiple certificates |
| 15:39 | <Talman> | Oh, duh, I missed the subdomain part. |
| 15:40 | <atourino> | so each cert = 1 ip |
| 15:40 | <row> | the issue of different ips is because the ssl cert is sent before you send the domain/url you are trying to view |
| 15:40 | * | mikegrb nods |
| 15:40 | <atourino> | ? |
| 15:40 | <Bdragon> | Yeah |
| 15:40 | <Talman> | No, wildcard certificate would cover the whole domain. |
| 15:40 | <Bdragon> | Yeah, hence, "each cert" |
| 15:40 | <row> | hence httpd can't work out which one to send |
| 15:40 | <Bdragon> | a wildcard is STILL one cert |
| 15:44 | <argoe> | then it's settled |
| 15:44 | <argoe> | ;) |
| 15:44 | <argoe> | it makes sense, but I've just never used a wildcard cert so I appreciate the feedback. |
| 15:53 | <argoe> | DOH...I was hoping to get a Fremont linode for my new one |

| 19:07 | <fjhdz> | put the same name server info on my domain registrar |

| 20:44 | <guinea-pig> | it was an experiment. so they didn't put too much money in at first |
| 20:44 | <Bdragon> | IIRC Apple gave deep discounts to schools... |
| 20:45 | <guinea-pig> | i think they picked them up in '93 |
| 20:45 | <Bdragon> | Ahh |
| 20:45 | <@caker> | http://www.linode.com/~caker/pics/Apple/DSCN0017.JPG :> |
| 20:46 | <Bdragon> | hahaha |
| 20:46 | <@caker> | shipped to me from an ex Apple employee |
| 20:46 | <Bdragon> | Cool |
| 20:46 | <opello> | nice |
| 20:46 | <opello> | i got an apple iic the other day at work |
| 20:47 | <Bdragon> | Man, that is one asthetically pleasing front for a server (well, if you push that one drive back in) |
| 20:47 | <@caker> | there's a door that covers all the drive bays, too (that locks) |
| 20:47 | <opello> | showcase.grammy.com is pretty neat |
| 20:48 | <Bdragon> | I live in an area that's difficult to find cool older hardware in.. :-/ |
| 20:49 | <Bdragon> | Ahh well, that's what Ebay is for. ;) |
| 20:49 | <opello> | heh |
| 20:50 | <opello> | Bdragon: not real 'cool', but i got an O2 a few weeks ago |
| 20:50 | <Bdragon> | OOOOO |
| 20:50 | <@caker> | r5k or r10k? |
| 20:50 | <opello> | 5k |
| 20:51 | <opello> | Bdragon: i'll see if there are any more, if there are i can pick you up one :p |
| 20:51 | <@caker> | they were so .. elite back in the day (any SGI was) .. and now they're on ebay for like $20 bucks :/ |
| 20:51 | <Bdragon> | Heh |
| 20:51 | <opello> | heh yeah |
| 20:51 | <Bdragon> | I've always wanted some SGI equipment... |
| 20:51 | <opello> | we got a 4 node origin 2000 up at dsu |
| 20:51 | <Bdragon> | Hee |
| 20:51 | <opello> | er, 4 case, or whatever -- 32 procs |
| 20:51 | <guinea-pig> | meh. i used to have an SGI box. it was crap. |
| 20:52 | <Bdragon> | EROS has a rather nice SGI ;) |
| 20:52 | <opello> | heh it's not real fancy, but it's something a little different |
| 20:52 | <guinea-pig> | graqnted, the thing *was* an antique |
| 20:52 | <opello> | Bdragon: yeah we got a bunch of equipment from them too |
| 20:52 | <Bdragon> | Heh |
| 20:52 | <opello> | their old flat crts |
| 20:52 | <opello> | you work there or something? :) |
| 20:52 | <Bdragon> | No, but I got a bit of a behind the scenes tour once |
| 20:53 | <opello> | ah cool, i applied there for an internship and got a personal tour |
| 20:53 | <Bdragon> | I recognized most of the equipment, despite not having a background in satellite technology.. It was rather funny.. :) |
| 20:53 | <opello> | heh cool |
| 20:54 | <Bdragon> | I'd appreciate it if you could score me an O2 :) |
| 20:55 | <opello> | hopefully i can get 6.5.30 on it |
| 20:55 | <opello> | or do you care about irix? |
| 20:55 | <Bdragon> | Never had a chance to use irix, always wanted to |
| 20:55 | <opello> | ah cool |
| 20:56 | <opello> | so i'll try to get the latest on it, if i've got time next time i'm up in madison |

| 20:57 | <Bdragon> | Also, if you know where any sun monitors are that work with a TGX sbus framebuffer are, I'm currently using an old gateway monitor that doesn't actually have sync on green but manages to get a very weak lock on the signal :P |
| 20:57 | <Bdragon> | hmm, where's madison in relation to Sioux Falls... I forget.. |
| 20:58 | <Bdragon> | (20 miles to Sioux Falls from Newton Hills..) |
| 20:58 | * | Bdragon summons the maps of G |
| 20:58 | <opello> | north on i90 about 25 minutes, west on 34 about 30 |
| 20:58 | <Bdragon> | Ahh, not bad |
| 20:59 | <Bdragon> | Bit past Dell Rapids |
| 20:59 | <opello> | yup |
| 20:59 | <opello> | hm, what about an sgi monitor with the 13w3? |
| 21:00 | <opello> | iirc those are sync on green |
| 21:00 | <Bdragon> | Yeah, but there's so many damn pinouts |
| 21:00 | <Bdragon> | I have an Ultra 2 |
| 21:00 | <Bdragon> | But it has an older framebuffer in it |
| 21:00 | <opello> | ah |
| 21:01 | <opello> | i could also grab an ultra 5 if you wanted :) |
| 21:01 | <Bdragon> | Heh |
| 21:01 | <opello> | if you feel your collection of old crap is not large enough |
| 21:01 | <Bdragon> | Well, some people here would disagree, but I don't think my collection of old crap is large enough yet ;) |
| 21:01 | <Bdragon> | heh |
| 21:01 | <opello> | heh |
| 21:02 | <Bdragon> | Although I suspect if I get much more hardware, I'll have to start paying the power bill here :P |
| 21:02 | <opello> | haha |
| 21:02 | <Bdragon> | (Have most of my stuff off at the moment to save power) |
| 21:02 | <opello> | aha |
| 21:03 | <Bdragon> | I do have what was host45 on though ;) |
| 21:03 | <opello> | haha, yeah |
| 21:03 | <opello> | those are loud :p |
| 21:03 | <Bdragon> | Yeah, that's why it's in the basement and I am not :P |
| 21:03 | <opello> | heh |
| 21:03 | <opello> | even in the basement was a bit more than i, or my parents, wanted |
| 21:04 | <Bdragon> | Heh, I have some of my network in a detached garage |
| 21:04 | * | caker will have a few more machines for sale soon, too |
| 21:04 | <Bdragon> | Like the satellite |
| 21:04 | <Bdragon> | and the gateway for that |
| 21:04 | <opello> | nice |
| 21:05 | <Bdragon> | Then it goes up into the loft of the garage and shoots over a wireless link to the main building |
| 21:05 | <opello> | didn't want to trench it over? |
| 21:05 | <Bdragon> | Comes in in the nursery, heads down to the basement to the core switch |
| 21:06 | <Bdragon> | The rest of the network is various lines snaking out from there, plus the three (well, two at the moment) access points |
| 21:06 | <Bdragon> | All in the middle of nowhere :P |
| 21:10 | <opello> | heh |
| 21:16 | <richard-blaine> | i have a pentium 4! ups, it's not old and crap enough |

| 22:28 | <nclark> | hello. i just signed up for a linode account. about how long will it take to get up and running? |
| 22:30 | <argoe> | nclark: the lack of answers is probably related to the lack of specificity in your question |
| 22:32 | <nclark> | what should i specify |
| 22:32 | <argoe> | perhaps what you mean by "up and running" |
| 22:33 | <argoe> | for example, in only minutes your host will likely be ready to be configured. is that up and running? |
| 22:33 | <argoe> | minutes after that you can have your linux distro installed. up and running yet? |
| 22:33 | <nclark> | yes, whenever i can log into the web interface. |
| 22:33 | <argoe> | minutes |
| 22:34 | <argoe> | you should get an email |
| 22:34 | <argoe> | sorry for being a smart ass ;) |
| 22:34 | <nclark> | cool. all i saw regarding that was that it could take '48 hours'...so i came here to get a more accurate prediction based on how busy they are right now, etc. |
| 22:34 | <nclark> | np |
| 22:35 | <argoe> | afaik the process is automated so it doesn't take long at all |
| 22:35 | <nclark> | awesome |
| 22:35 | <iggy> | it isn't automated |
| 22:35 | <nclark> | do you know why they wanted my banks phone #? i thought that was weird |
| 22:36 | <iggy> | it's in case they have to call it |
| 22:36 | <argoe> | it isn't? wow...then someone was on the ball when i signed up haha |
| 22:36 | <iggy> | i.e. if they try run your card and it's flagged as possible fraud |
| 22:36 | <nclark> | iggy yeah i got that part :) |
| 22:36 | <nclark> | oh |
| 22:36 | <nclark> | neat |
| 22:36 | <iggy> | yeah, they are usually on the ball |
| 22:36 | <iggy> | it is a friday night though |
| 22:37 | <nclark> | i guess so ! i just got activated :) |
| 22:37 | <iggy> | they might be out partying |
| 22:37 | <@caker> | nclark: hello -- all set! |
| 22:37 | <iggy> | spending all your money on hookers and booze |
| 22:37 | <iggy> | or not |
| 22:37 | <nclark> | thanks caker |
| 22:37 | <@mikegrb> | lolz |
| 22:37 | <argoe> | lol |
| 22:37 | <nclark> | quick question--when i signed up there was 1 available at the fremont data center, now there isn't. is it possible to get switched at some point in the future? |
| 22:38 | <argoe> | great question..i'm wondering the same |
| 22:38 | <iggy> | you can open a support ticket to get moved |
| 22:38 | <iggy> | but it'll change your IP |
| 22:38 | <nclark> | cool, thanks |
| 22:38 | <iggy> | I believe they are working on more hosts tot send out |
| 22:38 | <nclark> | also, do you know why so few companies offer virtual servers on freebsd? |
| 22:38 | <iggy> | whether those are going to dallas I don't know |
| 22:39 | <iggy> | nclark: because all the virtualization work is going on in linux |
| 22:39 | <argoe> | other than the file transfer forum entry is there any documented reason to be in one data center over the other? i assumed that fremont would be a faster access for mostly west coast visitors but i'm just guessing. |
| 22:39 | <iggy> | linode specifically uses uml in their production hosting |
| 22:39 | <iggy> | argoe: some people don't like the fact that atlanta blocks certain ports |
| 22:39 | <nclark> | iggy - does xen not run on bsd? is that what you're using? |
| 22:39 | <iggy> | other than that, nothing I've ever heard |
| 22:40 | <iggy> | nclark: linode's xen servers are still in beta |
| 22:40 | <argoe> | i chose dallas anyway, not that i do anything unusual with ports but |
