| 00:13 | <JT> | Hey, I'm thinking about getting hosting with linode, but I'm not sure I can configure everything because every host I've had before already had apache, mysql, etc installed |
| 00:14 | <JT> | How difficult is it? |

| 00:33 | <iggy> | especially if you use a common distro like fedora, debian, ubuntu, etc... they have a wealth of online documentation |

| 01:27 | <hatim> | hello people, i am prospecive buyer of service |
| 01:29 | <iggy> | you have questions? |
| 01:32 | <hatim> | website says, on anual payments one gets extra space |
| 01:32 | <hatim> | how much space are we talking about |
| 01:34 | <precana> | Hello, does anybody know if there is something wrong with host57 (fremont)? |
| 01:35 | <arooni-mobile> | how can i learn from the command line where my biggest files are? i only have 8MB left :( |
| 01:37 | <iggy> | hatim: 50% extra space last I heard |
| 01:37 | <bd__> | hatim: 50% extra |
| 01:37 | -!- | bd__ is now known as bd_ |
| 01:37 | <hatim> | so, 15 gb on 10gb account |
| 01:37 | <hatim> | not bad |
| 01:38 | <iggy> | precana: it doesn't ping for me, maybe open a ticket |
| 01:38 | <iggy> | it'll page the admins |
| 01:38 | <hatim> | i would prefer a 10% money back though |
| 01:38 | <hatim> | like slicehost |
| 01:38 | <bd_> | hilight caker :) |

| 01:39 | <iggy> | hatim: you can always ask, but I've never heard of them doing anything like that |
| 01:39 | <precana> | iggy: thank you, I will do that. It's gone off a few times in the last couple of hours. |
| 01:39 | -!- | Dreamr_3 [~Dreamer3@74-142-174-231.dhcp.insightbb.com] has joined #linode |
| 01:39 | <hatim> | iggy, you are a customer i suppose |
| 01:39 | <iggy> | I am |
| 01:40 | <hatim> | can you tell me some thing you dont like about their service, some thing which i need to watch out for |
| 01:40 | <hatim> | i dont find any catch on paper |
| 01:40 | <iggy> | nothing anymore |
| 01:41 | <hatim> | what was it before? |
| 01:41 | <iggy> | back when memory limits were lower, people that didn't know what they were doing would run into swap and thrash the disks |
| 01:41 | <bd_> | precana: http://www.linode.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3089 that was a few hours ago though |
| 01:42 | <bd_> | iggy: was the io limiter not in at that time? |
| 01:43 | <iggy> | it was, but when you've got 50% of the users on a host hitting it, it still hurts things for everybody else |
| 01:43 | <iggy> | but like I said, it hasn't been a problem for a while |
| 01:43 | <hatim> | iggy, i guess this also depends upon your luck |
| 01:43 | <hatim> | if you get on a low traffic machine you are fine |
| 01:45 | <iggy> | when the low end was 64M, there were a lot of people thrashing |
| 01:45 | <iggy> | not really a whole lot of low traffic 64M hosts at the time |
| 01:46 | <bd_> | hatim: The atlanta DC has some blocked ports (including 6667 but not 6668)... I think there's a forum post with the list somewhere. The dallas DC has some ports blocked that few people will need (http://www.linode.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1167), and the fremont DC has no blocked ports (and also no machines available last I checked :) |
| 01:46 | <bd_> | you can put in a ticket to migrate if there's a problem with something like that though |
| 01:47 | <precana> | iggy: thanks, i just found that post. It's happened at least three times since then though. I have sent off a ticket. |
| 01:47 | <iggy> | or you can pick a different DC when you do the initial distro deployment |
| 01:47 | <bd_> | iggy: I thought you can only pick a DC when you create the linode, or by putting in a ticket (even if you have no disk images)? |
| 01:47 | <precana> | oops, meand bd_ |
| 01:47 | <iggy> | whatever |
| 01:47 | <hatim> | so how would i knwo which DC runs which distro? |
| 01:48 | <bd_> | hatim: all the DCs run whatever distro you want |
| 01:48 | <iggy> | at the beginning of your being a customer |
| 01:48 | <iggy> | don't know what step exactly |
| 01:48 | <bd_> | iggy: First time you login, you get a choice of DC before you go to the control panel |
| 01:48 | <iggy> | I signed up almost 4 years ago, so things were a little different |
| 01:48 | <hatim> | ahan |
| 01:49 | <hatim> | any one running J2EE apps here |
| 01:49 | <iggy> | there was someone talking about it earlier |
| 01:49 | <hatim> | cause that's my primary interest in gettting a VPS |
| 01:50 | <bd_> | hatim: anyway, there's images for arch linux 2007.08, centos 5.0, debian 4.0, fedora core 8, gentoo 2007.0, opensuse 10.3, slackware 12.0, ubuntu 7.10, and a few other older ones. |
| 01:50 | <hatim> | (to showcase my J2EE work) |
| 01:50 | <bd_> | If you know what you're doing you can set up something else |
| 01:50 | <iggy> | hatim: you shouldn't have any problems with that |
| 01:50 | <hatim> | bd_, well i would go with either gentoo or centos |
| 01:51 | <bd_> | note that gentoo is the biggest one (1800MiB), probably due to the portage tree and whatnot |
| 02:03 | <hatim> | bd_ I can use portage information from another server |
| 02:03 | <hatim> | and i wont be updating things that often |
| 02:04 | <hatim> | i would prefer ubuntu server over centos, but at the end of the day, clients don't run away if you say you are on (some thing close to) red hat |
| 02:05 | <bd_> | There's an ubuntu server option *shrug* It's all up to you though, really :) |
| 02:05 | <hatim> | ofcourse i set up the site you are all welcomed to get my services for projects |
| 02:06 | <hatim> | (we can do occasional non bot advertising here ..right?) |
| 02:06 | <hatim> | bd_, ubuntu server is just a non X stripped down version of Ubuntu |
| 02:08 | <bd_> | I know. I mean, there's an option in the distro wizard for starting with an ubuntu image. |

| 05:46 | <fuzzie> | my primary linode has never had any troubles in its whole history, but somehow linodes of customers/friends seem to be a bit more cursed :) |
| 05:47 | <quanin> | the only time mine have ever gone down was when i've either royally fubared something or swapped out the OS. |
| 05:47 | <LinodeJavaUser> | Hey all |
| 05:47 | -!- | LinodeJavaUser is now known as Quadlex |
| 05:48 | <quanin> | and occasionally, just for kicks, i'll do both. |
| 05:48 | -!- | Pejyuu [~50cbd55b@webuser.linode.com] has joined #linode |
| 05:49 | <Quadlex> | Today I was planning a fun, productive day of configuring my Lindoe |
| 05:49 | <Quadlex> | *Linode |
| 05:49 | <Quadlex> | Instead, I discovered my workplace proxy prevents me getting SSH access |
| 05:50 | <quanin> | that's why webmin exists. :) |
| 05:51 | <Quadlex> | Webmin would be GREAT! If I didn't have a fresh new install of Gentoo-2007.0 |
| 05:51 | <hatim> | Quadlex, well you can make your linode as such that it can communicate on ssh via known web ports |
| 05:51 | * | hatim is still waiting for my order to be processed |
| 05:51 | <quanin> | Quadlex: that actually makes it uber easy. |
| 05:52 | <Internat> | Quadlex: run ssh on port 443 and ull be fine |
| 05:53 | <quanin> | i had webmin installed on both my gentoo nodes before it was halfway through the update process. |
| 05:53 | <Internat> | most/all companies ive worked at allow 443 out of the proxy |
| 05:53 | <Internat> | so tunnel ssh over it |
| 05:53 | <Quadlex> | I know not much about proxy-fu |
| 05:53 | <Internat> | if u use 80 they try to use the proxy/cache for the data. 443 because its secure http they cant |
| 05:53 | <encode> | heh. i've worked at one place that it doesn't work. my current job apparently |
| 05:53 | -!- | Pejyuu [~50cbd55b@webuser.linode.com] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] |
| 05:54 | <Quadlex> | But if we're using a non-SOCKS proxy, won't I need a proxy on my work localhost, so I can wrap SSL packets in HTTP? |
| 05:54 | <Internat> | i use putty and it works fine |
| 05:54 | <encode> | cos they require some funky version of NTLM auth for the proxy |
| 05:54 | <fuzzie> | ssh on port 443 is lovely until you need the darn https port and have to play silly games with portknocking/firewall rules/etc :/ |
| 05:54 | <Internat> | nope |
| 05:54 | <quanin> | Internat: if it's a windows based proxy they probably have it set up to forward IE from some other port to 443. |
| 05:54 | <encode> | and i can't find anything to get through it |
| 05:54 | <Internat> | eh? |
| 05:54 | <Internat> | that makes no sesne |
| 05:54 | <hatim> | how much time does it take to prcess order |
| 05:54 | <Internat> | i just use putty, configure my HTTP proxy in it, connect to port 443 on my linode and im good |
| 05:54 | <hatim> | normally? |
| 05:54 | <encode> | it somehow works with a web browser, but nothing else |
| 05:55 | <fuzzie> | hatim: very quickly, but within US daytimes |
| 05:55 | <Internat> | im yet to find a proxy that it wont go through |
| 05:55 | <encode> | Internat: yeah, that works every other place i've been at |
| 05:55 | <hatim> | arghhh |
| 05:55 | <hatim> | so it means i have to wait for another 6 hours |
| 05:55 | <encode> | Internat: i get errors relating to authentication |
| 05:55 | <encode> | im not fussed about it though |
| 05:55 | <Internat> | is that cause u ahve to auth to ur proxy? |
| 05:55 | <encode> | yes |
| 05:55 | <quanin> | nope, probably just another 3 or 4. depends where they're locating your linode. |
| 05:56 | <encode> | and the standard ntlm auth just won't play ball |
| 05:56 | <Internat> | u using putty? |
| 05:56 | <hatim> | well i have not been asked where it would be placed |
| 05:56 | <Internat> | ive had issues with other clients, but i find that putty works perfectly over it |
| 05:56 | <hatim> | i just ordered for one month service, just to try it out |
| 05:57 | <Internat> | hatim: you get to select your DC when you first log in |
| 05:57 | <hatim> | besides my hosting plan from other place expires in few days |
| 05:57 | <hatim> | Internat, which one do you recommend |
| 05:57 | <hatim> | wont it also depend on my plan and the places letf in the DCs |
| 05:57 | <Internat> | whichever one gets you the best ping |
| 05:57 | <quanin> | if they don't give you the option then it's likely they only have spots available for your plan in one DC. and that's where you'll be. |
| 05:58 | <encode> | Internat: yep, putty |
| 05:58 | <encode> | tried various other similar apps too |
| 05:58 | <Internat> | :( |
| 05:58 | <quanin> | you do have the option to migrate to another datacenter though should room become available. just open a ticket for it. |
| 05:59 | <hatim> | well right now i am more concerned about my order getting processed |
| 05:59 | <hatim> | cause i have to install OS and migrate services |
| 06:00 | <quanin> | it's been a while, but i *think* you'll get an email when your linode's been set up. |
| 06:01 | <Internat> | they are asleep though so you may have to wait an hr or 3 for it to be processed |
| 06:01 | <quanin> | likely or 3. it's only 6:00 EST here. |
| 06:01 | <Internat> | actually caker mentioned the other day that ever order in the last month has been responded to within 1-2hrs |
| 06:01 | <Internat> | They may be busy dealing with Host57 though |
| 06:02 | <hatim> | ahan |
| 06:02 | <quanin> | the freemont hosts seem to be having a bit more issues than most lately. wasn't host72 having problems a bit ago? |
| 06:03 | <hatim> | how do you guys get all this info |
| 06:03 | <Internat> | considering the whole of atlanta was down for 8-12 hrs the other week |
| 06:03 | <Internat> | the forums |
| 06:03 | <Internat> | all the outage notifications are there |
| 06:03 | <hatim> | which host went down etc (i am presuming you are mostly users here ) |
| 06:03 | <quanin> | hatim: http://www.linode.com/forums |
| 06:03 | <hatim> | ahhh |
| 06:03 | <fuzzie> | http://www.linode.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=25 |
| 06:04 | <quanin> | if it involves a linode server or service, it goes there. and usually quickly. |
| 06:04 | <Internat> | linode publish all the outages.. public.. ive never heard of them hiding or attempting to hide an outage |
| 06:05 | <hatim> | caker, has been idle for 4:22 now |
| 06:05 | <quanin> | and so you're not checking the forums every 5 minutes for an update, linbot will speak up if someone posts to the forums. |

| 07:40 | <quanin> | true. but every little bit helps. |

| 10:56 | <zeroday> | I made some mx changes to a domain in the morning, how long before linode ns' update? |
| 10:56 | <zeroday> | its nearly 4 in the afternoon now |
| 10:56 | <@caker> | zeroday: 15 minutes at the nameservers, at least |
| 10:56 | <@caker> | zeroday: have you queried them directly to see if the changes are theer? |
| 10:57 | <zeroday> | how do I do that? |
| 10:57 | <@caker> | dig @ns1.linode.com domain.com mx |
| 10:57 | <zeroday> | yep, its there |
| 10:58 | <zeroday> | but when I try to send an email, postfix thinks its hosting the accounts |
| 10:58 | <zeroday> | im using google apps |
| 10:59 | <zeroday> | google instructions for mx said the ttl should be the highest possible, could that be the problem? |
| 11:21 | <mwalling_> | does postfix think its hosting the accounts? ($mydestination) |
| 11:21 | <mwalling_> | zeroday: 11:21 < knoba> mwalling_: "soft_bounce" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Safety net to keep mail queued that would otherwise be returned to the sender. This parameter disables locally-generated bounces, and prevents the Postfix SMTP server from rejecting mail permanently, by changing |
| 11:21 | <mwalling_> | 5xx reply codes into 4xx. owever, soft_bounce is no cure for address rewriting mistakes or mail routing tmistakes. |
| 11:22 | <zeroday> | I tried again, this time I got a different error:mail for domain.com loops back to myself |
| 11:24 | <zeroday> | I can send email from other email a/c not on my linode |
| 11:24 | <zeroday> | I think the problem is my linode dns isnt updated |

| 11:27 | <h00s> | caker: sorry for bothering you again about this, but i got some informations from my bank. after talking to dozens people over there, they confirmed to me that ocurred some human error and therefore transactions have been declined. they also told me that yesterday, 40$ transaction (for the new L720) went thru and i shouldn't have problem with that in the future. so, what next? should i go again thru process of adding another linode or? |
| 11:28 | <mwalling_> | zeroday: yeah, you need to wait for dns to settle down... either by softbouncing your email (what graylisting uses), in the hopes that when the server tries next the dns is updated, or by accepting mail for that domain on postfix, and then relaying that to google |
| 11:29 | <zeroday> | I think I will just wait for now, it more of annoyance then a problem |
| 11:30 | <zeroday> | I can send and receive emails from in the google hosted email account |
| 11:30 | <@caker> | h00s: did you get your money back that was in the void? |
| 11:30 | <@caker> | h00s: if they say you won't have any more problems, go ahead and try adding another Linode |

| 11:31 | <@caker> | h00s: ... |
| 11:32 | <@caker> | h00s: I'll check again, but I don't think that's possible. The transaction was declined, and its status won't change after that... |
| 11:32 | <h00s> | caker: ok, no big deal. i will try again add new linode and will see from there. thank you again and sorry for all the mess |

| 11:39 | <@caker> | nice |
| 11:49 | <zeroday> | how long do linodes thats use ns1.linode.com, etc, take before they refresh their list? |
| 11:50 | <@caker> | linodes don't use ns1.linode.com directly (as in resolv.conf) -- it's an authoritative nameserver only |

| 11:50 | <mwalling_> | zeroday: what was your old TTL? |
| 11:50 | <mwalling_> | (dig a nameserver that has the old value) |
| 11:50 | <@caker> | but, nameservers go by the TTL of the zone, and of the individual records within the version of the zone it has |
| 11:51 | <zeroday> | hmm...I just did a dig, and the mx record has disappear |
| 11:51 | <zeroday> | * ed |
| 11:51 | <zeroday> | it was the default before |

| 13:29 | <moe> | hey |
| 13:29 | <moe> | caker: u there? i just got an email back from DA |
| 13:29 | <@caker> | ok -- and? |
| 13:29 | <moe> | If your VPS company has a partner account with us then they can order licenses cheaper and pass on the savings to you. But they would have to order it, not you. If you wanted a license from us, one in your own name, then you could do that but the cost would probably be higher: http://www.directadmin.com/pricing.html |

| 13:32 | <Rifkin> | so, any post-mortem on host57? |
| 13:32 | <@caker> | moe: you'll need to get a license from them, then |
| 13:33 | <moe> | ok |
| 13:33 | <@caker> | Rifkin: yes, it's dying, and we're migrating everyone off to a new, much, much faster host |
| 13:33 | <Rifkin> | is there anything I need to take care of now that I've been moved? |
| 13:33 | <@caker> | nope |
| 13:33 | <Rifkin> | great |
| 13:34 | <Rifkin> | by post-mortem I meant, do you know why it died, or are you trying to find out... or is it just, "it died, we don't really care now because everyone has been moved off of it" |
| 13:35 | <@caker> | well, .. it powers itself off -- so either a bad PSU or something wrong with power management |
| 13:35 | <@caker> | (can tell from the amperage draw on the RPC) |
| 13:35 | <Rifkin> | there was something funny going on with the load too... it seemed to get slower and slower |
| 13:35 | <@caker> | most likely everyone booting up after each of the 5 times it went down last night |

| 13:53 | <tozz> | btw, linode.com is down |
| 13:53 | <tozz> | :< |
| 13:54 | <sakaal> | is it? |
| 13:55 | <sakaal> | works for me |
| 13:55 | <CDMoyer> | for me, as well. |
| 13:57 | <mikegrb> | should be better now |
| 13:58 | <@caker> | tozz: yes, you will see a performance improvement with Xen |
| 13:58 | <@caker> | tozz: less overhead to begin with, plus Xen Linodes do SMP |

| 14:37 | <@caker> | host67 looks fine -- what's slow about it? |

| 15:21 | <sakaal> | So. You have the right to remain silent. |
| 15:21 | <bd_> | Rifkin: are the load spikes on the hour or something? |
| 15:21 | <bd_> | could be a cron job |
| 15:21 | <sakaal> | Everything you say, can and will be used against you eventually in the course of time. |
| 15:21 | <tozz> | caker: hahaha, that one was really good :) |
| 15:22 | <tozz> | guess I should shut down all my services running on the linode if I'm switching to Xen.. |
| 15:23 | <bd_> | Rifkin: (I think the load only refers to CPU usage from inside your linode, not from other linodes on the same host...) |
