08:43.38morsingcityLights!
08:43.40morsingMohan!
08:44.00cityLightshi
08:44.17cityLightshere is a question to the smart crowd
08:44.35cityLightsto connect to my ISP I must use a l2tp dialer
08:44.45cityLightsI use xl2tpd in linux
08:45.07cityLightsafter establishing connection, I use ppp0 as default route
08:45.24cityLightsI can connect to http easy but not to any https site
08:45.30cityLightswhy could this be?
08:46.03morsingThis could be un-related to your method of dialling up
08:46.20morsingWhat does tcpdump tell you?
08:46.36cityLightsdidnt do this yet
08:47.01cityLightsthe l2tp is pap , so no ipsec or encription is used
08:47.32morsingl2tp and pap has nowt to do with port blocking
08:47.38cityLightsalmost forgot - need to reserve place for fosdem
08:47.52cityLightsright...

09:26.09cityLightsTLV->HK
09:26.24cityLightsdid you book a hotel in Rome?
09:26.32cityLightsI got a Kosher place for you
09:26.46cityLights120 euro a day , at the great location
09:27.17Leedsah, TLV->HK was fine, had a massive McDonalds at the airport...
09:27.39Leedsoh, where is that?
09:28.03cityLightsmigdal palace - but you need to know what to ask for
09:28.07Leedsaiming, if possible, closer to 100 eur/day
09:28.12cityLightsthey have good rooms and bad rooms
09:28.24cityLightsyes 100 euro a day is a good price
09:28.34cityLightswe got it - but got a bad room
09:28.52cityLightsmaybe if you email them you can also get 100
09:29.06cityLightsbut ask for the rooms on the left side
09:29.12LeedsI think we will have 3 nights in Rome, 1 in Florence, 3 in Venice

09:30.04cityLightsits right next to piaza navona
09:30.13LeedsI'm not so bothered to be in a kosher place, to be honest - I'm used to being vegetarian when I travel, it's easier for Irene, and I'll get plenty of meat in the UK, staying with my parents and sister :D

09:39.48cityLightslet me ask this:
09:39.59LeedsI will *not* be roaming...  I've actually bought a 1 week wifi pass this morning, for 2000 yen (US$26)
09:39.59cityLightsI work a lot with EC2
09:40.21LeedsI've been looking at virtual servers in JP and AU today...
09:40.49cityLightsI hope to upgrade my and my SO laptops on 2012
09:41.00cityLightslooking for thin laptops
09:41.22cityLightsany advice, leeds, is welcome
09:41.27LeedsI bought a tablet a few weeks ago - after playing with my sister's iPad - and I haven't turned my laptop on since
09:41.34cityLightsback to work: how to solve this problem:
09:42.23cityLightsMy boss asked me to clean up instances that arent in use
09:43.07cityLightshe gave me four instances , I checked and found they where used as testing clusters
09:43.12cityLightstwo clusters
09:43.23cityLightseach with an elastic IP
09:43.40cityLightsI trminated the first cluter - two instances
09:44.24cityLightsI then wrote in the ticket that the elastic ip of the second cluster is now beening used by a different instance
09:44.38cityLightsthis was an instance that wasnt on the boss list
09:44.58cityLightsI then terminated tthe first instance
09:45.03*** join/#gllug Mohan (~nixh0st@cpc1-slou1-2-0-cust65.haye.cable.virginmedia.com)
09:45.14*** join/#gllug Mohan (~nixh0st@unaffiliated/mohan)
09:45.31cityLightsinstead of terminating the last one I use the instance ID of the the one that use NOT on the list
09:45.41cityLightsand so I killed a production server
09:46.34cityLightsthe reason is that I used the id in the clipboard and not the one in the list
09:46.47cityLightshow should I avoid this in the future?
09:47.29LeedsI've got no idea
09:48.10cityLightsI can't think of a way to prevent it technically
09:48.50Leedsnever used ec2
09:50.47*** join/#gllug Mohan (~nixh0st@unaffiliated/mohan)
09:51.37cityLightscan andoid use ec2 for processes that need more cpu power?

09:52.32cityLightswhat?
09:52.52morsingcityLights: Where's Sharon?
09:53.18LeedscityLights: only in the same way it can use any internet server
