<SpacePuppy> lophyte: yo!
<lophyte> SpacePuppy: heya
<lophyte> whats up?
<SpacePuppy> yo! wazzup? what time, where?
<lophyte> I'm not gonna get there until 11ish
<lophyte> though it starts at 8:30 i think
<lophyte> ralph is bringing a demo machine
<lophyte> I just got a whack of case/laptop stickers from Corey
<SpacePuppy> have they arrived yet?
<lophyte> yup, just got them
<lophyte> I'll be handing them out tomorrow
<SpacePuppy> wooot!!
<lophyte> I'm expecting the posters in a week or so.. I think they're coming from australia
<SpacePuppy> do we have any disks to give away?
<lophyte> FSOSS is giving them out in the loot bag
<lophyte> afaik
<SpacePuppy> cool.. what time is ralph going to be there?
<lophyte> I'm not sure.. he said earlier than 11 for sure
<lophyte> let me email him and ask
<SpacePuppy> :)
<lophyte> if you're gonna be there earlier than I, perhaps you can help him out with getting the demo machine over to the event
<lophyte> he said he lives a 2 minute drive from the campus, but he needs help lugging the case and monitor over
<lophyte> perhaps pool for a cab
<lophyte> what's yer email again?
<SpacePuppy> moi? crazydoode@gmail.com
<lophyte> what time are you gonna be there?
<SpacePuppy> havent decided.
<lophyte> earlier than I?
<SpacePuppy> earlier, later... who knows.. at that time of day I'm usually only concerned with coffee
<lophyte> hah
<lophyte> alright
<SpacePuppy> set a time and I'll try to focus on that :)
<lophyte> welcome :)
<Em3rald> wow, busy over here hehe
<lophyte> yeah, its a bit slow some times...
<Em3rald> I'll be right back ... just talkin to bawnpa :D
<Em3rald> hey all. So I am just workin on sumthin right now, but I didn't even know this channel existed. Where's everyone from? Or are you all idling, and I am talking to myself?
<Burgwork> no, I am here
<Burgwork> working on stuff, mostly fighting with my FC4 machines at work
<Em3rald> ah
<matjan> got myself a new second hand sound card today... but still have to plug it in...
<Em3rald> whut type of s/c is it?
<matjan> a creative oem... sb0090
<matjan> so... an audigy 2
<Em3rald> I see. Well, it should definitely give you higher performance than onboard anyway :D
<matjan> that's why i bought it ;)
<matjan> i listen for 99% of the time to music via my computer, so i wonder why i didn't buy it earlier...
<matjan> i just hope that it will all work well right away
<Em3rald> Should, I don't see why it wouldnt. S/Cs are pretty well supported
<matjan> right
<matjan> thing is that when i tried to upgrade to dapper, i lost my onboard sound
<matjan> supposedly it was a kernel bug
<matjan> and therefore i am still on breezy
<matjan> so now i can jump hopefully right away to edgy (after first trying dapper...)
<Em3rald> matjan: yeah, probably, although I imagine there is likely a fix for your specific chipset.
<matjan> probably, it is the ac97 chipset, so very common
<matjan> oh well... i also wanted to try some quality stuff and i got the card at a good price, so...
<Madpilot> Burgundavia, you having issues connecting to the web?
<Burgundavia> Madpilot: nope
<Madpilot> hmm. I seem to be having DNS trouble again. IRC works, one or two domains do, nothing else does
<Madpilot> ironically, help.ubuntu.com & wiki.ubuntu.com are just about the only places that are reliable right now - no idea WTF is happening
<Madpilot> roommate is having trouble too - either our cheap & flaky router, or Shaw DNS fubar'd again
<Burgundavia> I suspect the router
<Burgundavia> reboot it
<Madpilot> Burgundavia, it's downstairs, not sure any of them are home.
<Burgundavia> ah
<Madpilot> fixed. router needed resetting. stupid thing.
<Burgundavia> yep, figured
<Madpilot> remind me never to buy Belkin
<Burgundavia> right
<Burgundavia> hmm, why did my work connection just die
<Em3rald> wireless?
* Em3rald never buys belkin ... or benq ... just askin fer trouble
<rokerr> heh. i got a belkin a week ago since it was cheap and supposedly had ralink chip
<rokerr> at the moment, i'm not 100% sure what chip it does have. waiting to boot up the 6.10 disk and see
<Em3rald> ah
<rokerr> burning disc now :)
<robitaille> Burgundavia: Madpilot: I think I'll have to skip the party...my evening schedule is totally jammed this week until next week...
<Madpilot> robitaille, too bad, but I've been there & done that wrt screwy schedules too
<robitaille> and bad planning from Canonical to do Ubuntu releases right around Halloween :)
<Madpilot> yeah, you can't get new CDs from ShipIt fast enough to hand them out w/ the candy :)
<robitaille> :)
<robitaille> Maybe I should leave my leftovers CD from past releases beside the door at home instead of candies
<Madpilot> you'd probably get your house egged
<Madpilot> anyway, I need to sleep. Getting up @ 0600 is no fun.
<Burgundavia> robitaille: no worries
<SpacePuppy> lophyte: yo
<lophyte> SpacePuppy: heya
<lophyte> SpacePuppy: hows it going?
<SpacePuppy> printing off NFL stuff for the weekend
<lophyte> fun
<SpacePuppy> fun == $$
<SpacePuppy> what time are you headin out? I havent heard from ralph yet
<lophyte> by 10
<lophyte> I gotta shower and such
<SpacePuppy> k.. i'll toss some AC stuff in my bag
<lophyte> check your PM
<lophyte> SpacePuppy: where'd you go?
<lophyte> alright, I'm off
<lophyte> myles, you not joining us at fsoss?
<lophyte> k, gotta go.. bbl
<Alan-D> Is somebody available to help with configurating Samba?
<spacepupp1> lophyte
<mylesbraithwaite> Alan-D, if you are still there i can try to help
<matjan> where can i find a torrent to download edgy?
<MadCowBoy> matjan: hhttp://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/pub/distro/ubuntu/iso/6.10/
<matjan> MadCowBoy, thanks... but i'm halfway already on an ftp server, so...
<MadCowBoy> np
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Yes I'm back
<mylesbraithwaite> okay what is the problem?
<mylesbraithwaite> Alan-D
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I had a problem trying to setup a share on a windows 2003/ ubuntu network. But I manage to clear that up. But it present a new problem.
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: For my share to work I have to give full accessto a group to a given directory.
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Tha part ok,
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: But when a user create a new directory on the share he/she become owner of that directory.
<mylesbraithwaite> yes on linux have you set it to default to a user?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Is there a way that the group remain owner of all new directory and files?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I set the mod to 0774.
<mylesbraithwaite> on my ubuntu server i have on directory called Public where is forced the group to be users
<mylesbraithwaite> with "force group = users"
<Alan-D> my Would that be defined in the smb.conf file?
<mylesbraithwaite> yes
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: 1 minute...
<mylesbraithwaite> okay
<mylesbraithwaite> also do you have a
<mylesbraithwaite> "create mask" value?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: An example would be 0774?
<mylesbraithwaite> i am using "create mask = 0660"... i will post my [Public] part of smb.conf to paste in a second
<mylesbraithwaite> http://pastie.caboo.se/19895
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: If the share function without the mask, what does it server?
<mylesbraithwaite> i don't really understand your question?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I would have to forward that I need a "directory mask" also, no?
<mylesbraithwaite> directories and files a two different things in the file system: create mask is for files
<mylesbraithwaite> but your problem is when creating directories right
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: New directories or new files
<mylesbraithwaite> have you added the masks?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Yes the creat and directory (0660,0771) respectively.
<mylesbraithwaite> all users who access the directory should also be under the users group
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: yes, that is the case
<mylesbraithwaite> is samba acting as a client or a server?
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I'm trying to use it as a server
<mylesbraithwaite> okay i am sorry i just had to clear that up
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: np
<mylesbraithwaite> do you mind pasting the problem in your config onto pastie: http://pastie.caboo.se
<Alan-D> my:
<mylesbraithwaite> yes
<mylesbraithwaite> not the whole thing just smb.conf section under question
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: no not a all, just one small problem, how to paste to your site. Just click on it and than paste?
<mylesbraithwaite> i think so
<mylesbraithwaite> or just email it to me myles@monkeyinyoursoul.com
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: shoould be there.
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Did you get it?
<mylesbraithwaite> my email server is a little slow to day it will just take a minute or so
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: id# 19901
<mylesbraithwaite> could you tell me what "ls -la /home/administrateur | grep data" is
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: it a directory
<mylesbraithwaite> i know that i need to see the chmod and chown stuff
<mylesbraithwaite> could you excute it on the command line
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: root@Linux-server:~# /home/administrateur | grep data
<Alan-D> bash: /home/administrateur: is a directory
<mylesbraithwaite> you forgot ls -la
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: soory
<mylesbraithwaite> it is okay
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: drwxrwxr-- 5 administrateur gsk 4096 2006-10-27 14:50 data
<mylesbraithwaite> please do this in the command line "chmod -R ug+rwx,o+rx-w /home/administrateur/data"
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: ok
<mylesbraithwaite> dose it work now?
*** tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Unfortunately, no....same results
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Give me a minutes,I'm going to test under a different user id
<mylesbraithwaite> chown -R administrateur:users
<mylesbraithwaite> sorry "chown -R administrateur:users /home/administrateur/data"
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Here's the result: drwxrwxr-x 6 administrateur users 4096 2006-10-27 15:13 data
<mylesbraithwaite> okay that looks good also add this to the smb.conf "force user = administrateur"
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: If I understood he command right, change the ownership to both administeur and users?
<mylesbraithwaite> yes
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Does the force user replace the force group?
<mylesbraithwaite> no we need them both
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: ok
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: testing
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: yes Yes! YES!
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I can sleep will tonight...finally
<mylesbraithwaite> that good
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: I didn't think that you could set ownership to multi elements. Could you do the same thing with a group?
<mylesbraithwaite> yes check out http://www.ss64.com/bash/chgrp.html
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: That's what I was doing before, I would chown to administrateur and than chgrp gsk
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: But when a user would create something new, they became owner
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Could should have did the command in the following manner "chown -R administreur:gsk /home/administrateur/data".
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Thank you very much for your patience and knowledge! I was getting a bit discouraged about my choice of moving this server to linux. There are many unknowns and change of mentality.
<mylesbraithwaite> yes that would work but you would have to edit the smb.conf thought in my server i like to see the users for better forensic information
<Alan-D> mylesbraithwaite: Good point, but it up the manage of the server a bit, in my point of view
<Burgwork> lophyte-: hey
