00:00.38Zelutthat does complicate the dependencies though..
00:02.05maquisfbsd can do it.....
00:02.13maquisfor the apps that it supports
00:03.47synicfbsd has it's own problems.
00:05.00Zelutwell I'm outta here
00:05.03Zelutbbiab
00:05.37synicfor instance, not being able to install the gnome meta port immediately after using cvsup
00:05.57synicfor me, I like having the idea of a "stable" release with compatable software in that release
00:06.41syniconce you start getting into installing bleeding-edge software with everything else, you're going to end up with incompatabilities on your own system, and that's when it starts to suck
00:11.12herlomaquis: it depends on the app of course, but you should be able to upgrade it quite easily by adding a repo
00:14.21maquisherlo: sure... but then i spend my whole life searching for repos
00:19.53herlomaquis: what fun!

01:44.41YorokobiI suppose you want to use the hash and not the filename?
01:44.42Yorokobiof the key
01:44.42atoponcewell, i don't need to know the key itself, just maybe an arrow saying the user's key on this server has been installed on this server
01:44.42atoponceso, if i have the deva and devb servers
01:44.42Yorokobior the user name next to the server in the diagram, perhaps?
01:46.07atoponceuser1 @ deva is on devx
01:46.07atoponces/x/b/
01:46.08atoponcei was thinking of using dia, and drawing boxes to represent the servers, with text of the server name in the box
01:48.11atoponcethen, drawing arrows from one server to the next showing a key is installed on that server

01:48.54YorokobiThat could get messy pretty fast, unless you're going to use a 36x48 or larger area ...
01:48.54atoponceyeah
01:48.55atoponceso that's why i'm wondering if there's a better way
01:49.36atoponceeventually, i just want to print it off
01:50.42Yorokobiatoponce, for an 8x11, it may be easier to have a box for the server with the name inside and the user@host next to it, no lines ... not much of a diagram, per se but cleaner
01:52.20atoponceoh, i see what you're saying
01:52.34atoponcebut, if there are a dozen servers, that's a lot of user@hosts in one box
01:53.13Yorokobitrue, if you have ~3 users total, it may be easier to spiderweb from a user to the host ...
01:55.42atoponceso, if i spiderweb it, then i should put all the servers in a circle, fairly spaced apart
01:55.58Yorokobi12 hosts make a good clock pattern :)
01:56.06atoponcegood point. :)
01:56.53Yorokobior vertically stacked on one side with the users evenly spaced on the other with lines connecting them.
01:57.33YorokobiThat type reminds me of matching questions on tests when I was in grade school. :)

03:15.05opapoI need to get spamassassin working by 11:30 tomorrow
03:15.15opapoBasic filtering will work
03:16.45opapoI have it installed on a Fedora box but the setup should be the same no matter the box
03:17.09opapoI thought I saw instructions for it on the web, but it seemed too simple.
03:19.24Yorokobiopapo, Postfix?
03:19.33opaposendmail
03:24.37herloopapo: yum install spamassassin should do it...
03:24.59opapoIs there anything else I need to do?
03:25.04opapoI've done that already
03:25.13herloopapo: dunno, check the sendmail book for details
03:25.42YorokobiYou mean the sendmail tome?
03:25.43opapoI don't have the sendmail book
03:26.03herloopapo: with postfix, you've gotta tell it that spamassassin is being used, you can do the same thing in sendmail
03:26.05opapodo you mean the man page for sendmail?
03:26.33opapoThere was a line I was supposed to copy to a config file
03:26.43herloopapo: no, but the book thing was a joke.  There are several good sites on the interweb that can help you with such a setup.  I ran across several when setting it up for postfix
03:26.44opapoI did that and restarted spamassassin
03:27.00herloand sendmail right?
03:27.36opapoI don't remember if i restarted sendmail
03:27.40opapoI will
03:28.00opapoWhat are the site that helped with the setup
03:28.14opapoI need a site I can trust and follow by 11:30 tomorrow
03:30.03opapoMy boss needs to go to his boss and explain why he was getting porn mail
03:30.37opapoIt was because my mail program was not being filtered

03:32.19atoponcehow can i find the fingerprint of an ssh key?
03:33.06Yorokobiatoponce, ssh-add -l is one way (if the key is added to the agent)
03:33.44atoponcemy agent is gnome, and i'm logged in remotely
03:34.07atoponceso "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent."
03:37.31Yorokobissh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
03:37.44opapoherlo: do I need to do anything else with spamassassin?
03:37.50atoponcegot it
03:37.53Yorokobisubst your path, of course

03:38.33Yorokobiditto
03:41.52atoponceheh. i got so caught up in figuring that out, that i forgot why :)
03:43.33Yorokobifor your diagram?
03:44.20atoponceno. i need to do some work tonight, and i was having a man in the middle attack error
03:44.27atoponceso i was trying to figure it out
03:44.41atoponcei just ended up cleaning out the known_hosts file. :)
03:45.27herloopapo: no, spamassassin should just start reporting things as spam.  I'd just suggest you spend a little time with google...it can really help you much better than I can since I've not setup sendmail beyond a basic setup....
03:46.27atoponceand sshfs to the rescue
03:46.28atoponcewoot
03:49.36opapoherlo: if spamassassin will automatically start reporting spam I can just work on fine tuning the filtering

15:14.19maquisstuporglue: silly question, but might help
15:14.29maquisif you run 'date' from the command-line, does it give the right time?
15:14.29nurnis the timezone in /etc/timezone correct?

15:14.56stuporgluedate, not as much
15:15.04maquisbecause i know during daylight savings time, a lot of my coworkers had their time off in the gui, but if they ran date it was correct
15:15.14maquishrm
15:15.16stuporgluethe cli and gui are in sync
15:15.30maquisthat's GMT, isn't it/
15:15.37maquiser..
15:15.47maquisno... gmt would be the other way around, i guess
15:15.53nurncheck the bios and make sure the time in there is correct
15:16.15Zelutntp won't update if you're that far off.  It assumes something must be wrong if its trying to change itself by that many hours.
15:16.36stuporglueI see...so maybe if I set it manually once, it'll update correctly next time
15:16.43Zelutshould work, yeah.
15:17.26atoponcewhat i would recommend, is setting a server in /etc/ntp.conf to sync to, and running it in cron like hourly
15:17.33maquisstuporglue: you're someplace about 2 hours east of japan, it looks like
15:17.39stuporglueSweet
15:18.24stuporgluehrm. Ok, so I set the time, then switched back to "keep synchronized with internet servers", but the synchronize now button is now greyed out
15:21.42stuporglueand now If I try to run sudo, I get "timestamp too far in future"...

15:25.45atoponcethen, run 'crontab -e' and add '@hourly /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate'

15:39.54Brizzsudo ntpdate -d time.xmission.com
15:40.05stuporglueWell, the router had a "firewall" checkbox, but it didn't matter either way -- same results
15:40.25stuporgluewant the output here?
15:40.38Brizzis it long? o_O
15:40.40stuporglue~20 lines
15:40.48Brizzhmm
15:40.52Brizztry
15:40.56atoponcemy concern is that it's not finding the time.xmission.com server
15:41.00Brizzsudo ntpdate -u time.xmission.com
15:41.20stuporgluetime.xmission.com in a browser gives what seems to be the right results

15:41.33stuporglue15 May 09:41:10 ntpdate[12867]: step time server 198.60.22.240 offset 38.182549 sec
15:41.56Brizzyah
15:42.02Brizzit's a problem with the port it's trying to use
15:42.14Brizzjust have your cron run ntpdate -u and you won't have any problems
15:43.33Brizzyou can also try this really quick
15:43.38stuporglueBrizz: as in, just let it sit, and when cron gets around to it, it'll correct itself?
15:43.41Brizzntpdate -b -t 4 -p 4
15:43.50stuporglueno servers can be used, exiting
15:44.04Brizzyah it's definitely the port problem
15:44.34stuporglueDo I probably have a setting wrong somewhere, or is it more likely a blocked port somewhere?
15:44.47Brizzwell it's more likely a blocked port somewhere
15:45.39Brizzanyway that ntpdate should have corrected your time for you, and if you fix your cron it should fix your time every hour
15:45.57stuporglueinteresting...I'll have to ask iProvo about that as I think my router is behaving.
15:46.00stuporglueThanks for the help
15:46.08Brizzyou're welcome :)
15:46.29stuporglueclass time. See everyone later

20:22.07Hundingjust wondering if there was anything different as I was not able to find a howto specifically for Feisty
20:23.14baensdont think there is one yet, but do you need a howto thats sorta general? theres a couple out there and they *should* work
20:25.32baensthis is for edgy but should work: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html
20:26.09Hundingyup...that is the one I was looking at :)
20:26.56maquisis conky ubuntu-specific, then?
20:27.19Hundingno, not at all
20:27.43baensI used it on gentoo for the longest time :) haven't got it setup on my ubuntu quite yet

21:15.04Brizzit was so good

21:15.19atoponcetreats, snacks, pop, etc should be immediately available, so you don't have to get up except change the disk

21:15.29herloatoponce: except that those don't fill you up, just make you fat
21:15.29Brizzlike Jessica is not entirely selfish
21:16.07BrizzI think she hasn't let Niki out for all this time because she needed to protect Micah and that's what she is good at
21:16.16atoponcethe warcraft episode was the best
21:16.18Brizzshe let Niki out when she needed to protect DL
21:18.48Brizzwhich, ironically, got him shot

21:19.37atoponcehttp://lofish1972.imeem.com/video/t2E1aadd/south_park_warcraft/
21:19.43atoponceif you have flash installed
21:19.54[phoenyx]I was surprised they killed off linderman and thompson
21:20.09Brizzyah it was kind of weird
21:20.20Brizzbut at the same time they seemed to be the "corrupt" part of primatech
21:20.35BrizzHiro's dad wasn't working with them anymore
21:20.53herloBrizz: Linderman might be dead.  I wonder about that still
21:21.00Brizzit also explains why they aren't around in 5 Years Later
21:21.06Brizzwhy?
21:21.18herlobecause his powers were to heal things
21:21.27Yorokobibut not himself
21:21.34Brizzright, but Sylar's plotline tells us that the brain is the key to their powers, and his brain was all sorts of scrambled
21:21.57herloand if Peter was close enough to him to absorb his power, its possible he could heal him
21:22.25herlotrue that his brain was basically replaced with DL's hand
21:22.39YorokobiRealistically, Linderman's skull should have cut DL's wrist ...
21:22.56herloYorokobi: the show isn't realistic to start with...
21:23.00Brizzyah I'm not sure of the logistics of that lol
21:23.04[phoenyx]DL can phase selectively though
21:23.10herloexactly
21:23.12YorokobiNot Real? What?
21:23.25[phoenyx]he can reach through a door and turn the doorknob on the other side
21:23.33herlohaha, if you think that heroes can really fly or disappear in this world, you need to come back to reality
21:23.47Brizzmy jaw like dropped when claire's dad dropped thompson
21:23.55herlothat was cool!
21:23.59Brizzyah it was so awesome
21:24.20herloI still wonder how the little girl will fit into it all now... I don't think he has the heart to kill her
21:24.21Brizz"what am I thinking now parkman?" "The last thought you'll ever have" *boom* *boom* *boom*
21:24.33Brizzherlo, if PEter gets close to her, he can find Sylar
21:24.52Brizzand if he realizes he has Hiro's power, he can teleport to him :)
21:24.58herloBrizz: true, but its only a matter of time before Parkman wakes up
21:25.06herloand then Suresh will have to make a choice
21:25.08Brizzyah but Parkman didn't want to kill her
21:26.45herloTrue, but like I said, I don't think Claire's dad can do it
21:26.56Brizzwell he won't
21:27.08Brizzbecause Mohinder is running with her in the scenes
21:27.22Brizzit also looks like Parkman dies
21:27.26herloBrizz: I didn't see the preview
21:27.31Brizzah
21:27.34herlofor next week
21:27.58herloone thing you don't get when you don't watch them on tv

21:29.49herlothey should.  Did you see the thing that CBS is going to do on CBS.com?
21:29.57Brizzno
21:30.01Brizzwhat is it/
21:30.05herlothey're gonna start distributing episodes online

21:45.46Zelutyou've been able to watch the episodes online for some time.. just not take them anywhere.
21:45.52Brizzyah
21:45.53Brizzwell
21:45.54Zelutis there a streaming video capture app?
21:45.59Brizzyou can buy them on iTunes
21:46.13Zelutbuy them on itunes. pfft!
21:46.28BrizzI didn't say that was a good option
21:46.30ZelutI already pay for TV.  I don't want to pay for it again.
21:47.06Brizzsame
21:47.26herloZelut: but if you don't have a tv, paying for them on iTunes is an option
21:47.55herlowhat if you want to buy them on DVD after the season is realeased?  Is that a waste too?
21:49.03BrizzI'll get the season on DVD
21:49.03Brizz\it's a great show
