| 06:08 | <Marius> | also it has to be special written since aparently the .no guys reinvented EPP for this >_> bastard norwegians |

| 06:38 | <amitz> | Some of the entries are correct :-p |
| 06:39 | <Marius> | hahaha |
| 06:39 | <Marius> | "Security Guard" is a dialect? xD |
| 06:40 | <amitz> | it may not be clear but what it means is the malaysian's translation of the english intended meaning is one the last column (when translated using Indonesian language). |
| 06:40 | <Marius> | oh |
| 06:40 | <amitz> | s/one// |
| 06:41 | <Marius> | so the first emperor was an otaku, eh? xD |
| 06:41 | <amitz> | hence why Indonesian thought Malaysians speak funnily. I'm not sure about the accuracy of all entries on English -> Malay language, but all entries on Malay -> Indonesian interpretations are correct. |
| 06:42 | <Marius> | awesome, according ot this I'm an otaku as well xD |
| 06:42 | <amitz> | Marius: not otaku, it's just that the first president liked arts ...and women. Plenty of women. |
| 06:42 | <Marius> | the article said otaku! haha |
| 06:43 | <amitz> | perhaps he was into manga :-p |
| 06:43 | <Marius> | hehe |
| 06:44 | <Jippi_moc> | Does linode has plans to participate in Simple Cloud API ? |
| 06:45 | <auau> | Jippi_moc: I doubt so, it's a rackspace/slicehost thing |

| 08:35 | <mendel> | we're in dallas and newark right now |
| 08:35 | <wakkawakka> | This is the first issue in Dallas in forever, that I can remember. |
| 08:35 | <wakkawakka> | And it was just 20 minutes. Overall, pretty good, I'd say. |
| 08:35 | <coyled> | heh |
| 08:35 | <Jippi_moc> | london hasn't have had any issues since I moved to linode two months ago - compared to vps.net thats... well.. nice :P |
| 08:35 | <Jippi_moc> | but to expected really |
| 08:35 | <dotcomguy> | mendel: I had dedicated servers at The Planet, and very rarely had issues like this. The problem is isolated to Linode, and there are no network updates from The Planet which is generally good about updating when there are problems *cough*unlike Linode*cough* |
| 08:35 | <jaredc> | this is the second issue in Dallas in the recent past, in my exp. |

| 08:37 | <dotcomguy> | Daveien: The servers I had there were constantly monitored, and the reason I don't have servers there now is because VPS is more cost effective for my needs. |

| 08:38 | <mendel> | this atlanta/london theory is a good one though |
| 08:38 | <mendel> | not sure i'd do london, most of our customers are NA |

| 08:41 | <Daevien> | dotcomguy: the other thign is, have you actually tried to get info out of TP about downtime? i have, it can be like pulling teeth. so linode's go poof, linode staf screamsa t TP, gets delayed, etc which means they can't update with anythign meaningful until TP tells them something |
| 08:41 | <hobot> | yep |
| 08:41 | <GatorKram> | [08:12:40][08-24] * [10101] Host disconnected is down, and [08:29:59][08-24] * Connect retry #31 is back up |
| 08:41 | <wakkawakka> | it's $20/mo... you may 3 times that for your home DSL/cable connection |
| 08:41 | <wakkawakka> | pay* |
| 08:41 | <hobot> | other physical locations is the only way t do it |

| 08:42 | <Daevien> | 3 locations basically ensures your site will survive and costs very little compared to somethign that truly needs as close to 100% uptime as you can get. anything that can't afford $60 a month doesn't need 100% uptime really, it's a want them, not a need |
| 08:42 | <hobot> | yep |
| 08:43 | <GatorKram> | no matter what you do, even if you have 500 locations across the world, at some point, something will fail, and someone will have the "bad" ip cached for at least 5m |

| 08:44 | <Daevien> | from being in the business for almost 15 years now, i can say that generally, the ones that complain the loudest tend to be the cheapest bastards that don't want ot spend anything but demand 100% uptime ;) |

| 11:15 | * | jed plays Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien |
| 11:15 | <feldmand2> | I suspect my DNS configuration may not be quite correct, and I have some questions. |
| 11:17 | <Daevien> | feldmand2: you could use linode ns as slaves instead of twisted, there' sa guide on that on the library i believe |
| 11:17 | <feldmand2> | Is this DNS setup problematic? |

| 11:18 | <Daevien> | far as your exact question, i've not heard nyone mention twisted4life here, i jsut looked up to see what they did |
| 11:18 | <feldmand2> | I learned about twisted4life on some of the Linode forum entries. It was recommended by some. |
| 11:19 | <feldmand2> | It was easy to setup twisted4life as a secondary nameserver, I am just not sure it will work. |

| 11:24 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: you'd kind of want a secondary to get updated ;-) |
| 11:24 | <feldmand2> | ssteinerX: what do you mean by "updated"? At a minimum you need a primary and a secondary. Are slaves additional? |
| 11:25 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: read http://www.twisted4life.com/dnsadmin.php?Menu=specs about the zone transfer -- that's an update |
| 11:25 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: you can have more than 2 |
| 11:26 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: most shared/vps hosting uses the same acct/box for both DNS servers in the default config |
| 11:26 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: go cPanel |
| 11:27 | <Damian> | Hi, Is there any reason the DNS manager won't let you do wildcard sub sub domains (ie *.somesubdomain.domain.tld)? |
| 11:27 | <@pparadis> | it will |
| 11:27 | <DephNet[Paul]> | feldmand2: according to http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch4/ "The term 'slave' was introduced in BIND 8.x and replaced the term 'secondary'." |
| 11:27 | <feldmand2> | ssteinerX: what do you mean by "go cPanel"? |
| 11:27 | <@pparadis> | you need to create another zone |
| 11:28 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: that's cPanel's default scheme: use the same account/server for both DNS servers |
| 11:28 | <feldmand2> | DephNet[Paul]: Very interesting that slave has replaced the term secondary. |
| 11:29 | <feldmand2> | ssteinerX: I don't have cPanel. I've been trying to get ISPConfig running on port 8080 with no success. |
| 11:29 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: in a traditional AXFR-based authorative DNS configuration, you have one master/primary nameserver and one or more slave/secondary nameservers. when the serial number in the zone's SOA is incremented on the master, it will (usually) send a NOTIFY to the slaves it knows about, and then the slaves will request an AXFR from the master |
| 11:30 | -!- | uggedal [~uggedal@hydrogen.uggedal.com] has joined #linode |
| 11:30 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: in your case, it sounds like you're wanting to run nsd on your linode as a master and use twisted4life.com's nameserver(s) as slave(s). right? |
| 11:30 | <feldmand2> | ssteinerX: I read that placing your primary and secondary ns's on different servers is more robust. |
| 11:31 | <ssteinerX> | feldmand2: cPanel is the de-facto standard in the shared hosting world, it's virtually unlicensable by normal humans without a service provider's help/blanket license |
| 11:32 | <Daevien> | and virtually guaranteed to drive you insane as an admin |

| 11:35 | <ssteinerX> | cPanel == nightmare on CentOS 5 |
| 11:35 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: i believe having primary and secondary nameservers on different servers is a MUST by RFC, but i can't cite that right now. but, it's a really good idea for anything beyond toying around on a friday afternoon. |
| 11:35 | <swaj> | cPanel seems to have an option to purchase directly from them here -> http://www.cpanel.net/products/cpanelwhm/purchase-cpanel-products.html |
| 11:35 | <feldmand2> | HoopyCat: How much is a CPanel license annually? How does it compare to ISPConfig? |
| 11:35 | <ssteinerX> | $425/hear, more than the hosting, that's absurd |
| 11:36 | <ssteinerX> | s/hear/year/ |
| 11:36 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: i think cpanel's somewhere around $400/year/server, which isn't too bad in a commercial situation. i can't compare them as i use neither of them. |
| 11:36 | <swaj> | there's cPanel/WHM VPS Optimised2 package which is only $200 |

| 11:44 | <swaj> | feldmand2: you just have to register your linode's IP with your registrar as a nameserver, I assume you've done that right? |
| 11:44 | <feldmand2> | HoopyCat: When twisted4life referred to primary DNS i figured it was referring to the nameserver not my IP address. I suspected that might be a problem. |
| 11:45 | <amitz> | although I may have remembered the size wrong, I'm pretty sure. |
| 11:45 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: that isn't ns1.linode.com :-) it's resolver1.fremont.linode.com, which only does recursive requests for linodes in the fremont datacenter. you want to put your own linode's IP address there |

| 11:45 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: if you're running nsd and want that to serve requests, that's your primary DNS for your domain. |
| 11:46 | <feldmand2> | swaj: Well... yes and no. I have registered ns1.feldmand.com using the IP address of ns1.linode.com not my IP address. |
| 11:46 | <HoopyCat> | Daevien: what're the odds of cpanel / plesk / ispconfig working with nsd3 and twisted4life? :-) |
| 11:46 | <swaj> | that's part of the problem |
| 11:46 | <Daevien> | feldmand2: what are you doign with your hosting? your own couple of sites? or do you have other popel that need to add and remove sites thta wil be usin gyoru hosting? |
| 11:46 | <swaj> | feldmand2: you need to register ns1.feldmand.com to use your Linode's IP |
| 11:46 | <swaj> | if you want to run your own dns server |
| 11:47 | <Daevien> | HoopyCat: not sure on the nsd part mostly, long as it can write files that are then fed to somethign for NS i'd say good, i just dont knwo if they support nsd right off |
| 11:47 | <swaj> | unless linode's DNS manager is hosting feldmand.com for you |
| 11:47 | <Daevien> | HoopyCat: basically the panels all output the dns info for domains as it adds, removes, etc to zone files |
| 11:47 | <swaj> | even so, it's not going to work, because then you'd have to use Linode's DNS manager for all your customer domains |
| 11:47 | <feldmand2> | HoopyCat: Thanks for the clarification on the erroneous address. The primary address for my domain is the IP address Linode assigned to my box, right? |
| 11:47 | <darkside_> | why would you need twisted4life when you have linodes in 5 locations? |
| 11:48 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: yes. |
| 11:48 | <darkside_> | rather, what is the advantage? |
| 11:48 | <swaj> | feldmand2: yes. Basically you're running an authoritative nameserver on your Linode, so you need ns1.yourdomain.com to be registered to point at your node's public IP |
| 11:49 | <swaj> | then other domains can use ns1.yourdomain.com as their nameservers, and all you have to do is add the zone on your node |
| 11:49 | <feldmand2> | Daevien: Re: hosting. I registered a handful of sites with GoDaddy. No one else involved. |

| 11:49 | <Daevien> | darkside_: there is none, he just doesn't seme to want to listen to me now lol |
| 11:50 | <darkside_> | my thoughts |
| 11:50 | <feldmand2> | Swaj: Linode's DNS manager is currently not hosting feldmand.com for me. |
| 11:50 | <HoopyCat> | WWTOD? |
| 11:50 | <Daevien> | feldmand2: then don't bother with ispconfig honestly, you'll learn far more abotu linux & hosting wihtout them and not have their headaches involved |
| 11:50 | <HoopyCat> | (the onion, not terrell owens) |
| 11:50 | <Daevien> | and also have far more control over what you do and don't run on yoru linode for services, etc |
| 11:51 | <Daevien> | run a basic LAMP setup, even using the stackscript to get it up quickly perhaps and set your NS to the linode ones, set your basic dns entries and not worry abotu slave & secondary & ispconfig. just my thoughts on it though |
| 11:51 | -!- | Pici [~Pici@nullcortex.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds] |
| 11:51 | <swaj> | feldmand2: so you run your own nameserver. Register "ns1.feldmand.com" as your Linode's public IP. Then set the next 5 nameservers on your domain as NS1 - NS5.LINODE.COM. Now go into the Linode DNS manager and import the zones from your master server. You're all done, and fully redundant. |
| 11:51 | <feldmand2> | swaj: Yes, HoopyCat made me realize that ns1.mydomain.com must be reg and point to my node's public IP. |
| 11:52 | <Daevien> | generally control panels are good for shared hosting environments with multiple people that are generally clueless / don't want to knwo to do naythign manually. but setting them up is a bitch |

| 11:53 | <swaj> | feldmand2: if that's your slave, then yes |
| 11:54 | <swaj> | basically then, twisted4life.com will pull any changes you make to your zones automatically, so you don't have to worry about it (as long as your DNS manager increments the serial number properly, which cPanel should) |
| 11:54 | <HoopyCat> | that's one thing cpanel is better at than me ;-) |
| 11:54 | <feldmand2> | Daevien: That's good advice to stay away from ISPConfig. If I don't need it, I won't use it. |
| 11:54 | <swaj> | hehe |
| 11:54 | <Daevien> | it's just extra stuff to learn but isn't really useful in your situation is my opinion |
| 11:55 | <Daevien> | it would be potentially useful if you had friends that you wer ehosting and they wanted to add & remove domains themselves or something |
| 11:55 | <swaj> | if he wants the ability to add friends websites to his box without muddling with a remote DNS manager, it's nice |
| 11:55 | <swaj> | he can just do it all in one place |

| 11:55 | <swaj> | haha |
| 11:56 | <Daevien> | yeah but he said somewhere back there it was just him with a handful of sites. in that event, i'd say a basic LAMP or LEMP setup |
| 11:56 | <swaj> | no harm in running your own DNS server if you have proper slaves set up for when yours crashes :P |
| 11:56 | <rb> | feldmand2: Coming a bit late to the discussion ... are you aware that you can setup "your" NS as a "hidden primary" with, e.g., Linode's NS's as slaves/secondaries. "your" DNS is exposed only to Linode, and the rest of the world only sees Linode's servers as authoritative for your DNS. Apologies If I'm repeating someone else ... |
| 11:56 | <feldmand2> | Daevien: Interesting thoughts. Installed LAMP stack myself minus the stackscript, which sort of confused me on how to use honestly. |
| 11:56 | <Daevien> | it will run better & offer more control over stuff |
| 11:57 | <swaj> | Daevien: you also have to consider his experience. Certainly is a lot easier to use a control panel once it's configured :P |

| 11:57 | <Daevien> | swaj: yeah, once it's installed... but the updates, etc. i've run cpanel boxes & other control panels. they generally add anothe rlevel of annoyance |
| 11:58 | <ssteinerX> | swaj: a simple control panel based reseller arrangement is better for 100% of "friend" sites |
| 11:58 | <Daevien> | and that assumes the initial install works right. which is not hte case a lot of the time :P |
| 11:58 | <ssteinerX> | five bucks a month, unlimited bandwidth, no disk space limits, wait, let me get my affiliate link out ;-) |
| 11:58 | <swaj> | you're preaching to the choir, I wouldn't come within 100 feet of cPanel, but it obviously helps some folks that are a little green to getting this stuff set up or it wouldn't be selling so well. |
| 11:58 | <dcraig> | have some sort of mechanism that warns you when twisted4life decides to change the IP of their secondary nameserver |
| 11:58 | <dcraig> | or else your secondary nameservice will quit working one day |
| 11:59 | <Daevien> | there are different options basically feldmand2. my preferred way is to do it with a lamp or lemp setup if i dont have others tryign to add or remove things. if you do go with ispconfig, i'd say go with what rb mentioned again, linode ns being slaves to your linode's local nsd. twisted is prob ok but mor epeopel use linode ns and know that setup so woudl be able to help with issues |
| 11:59 | <feldmand2> | rb: welcome.. no, I am not aware that I can setup my NS as a "hidden primary". |

| 12:01 | <feldmand2> | rb: why would that configuration be considered a hidden primary. Would that not just be using NSD as your primary ns and linode's ns's as secondaries/slaves? Why "hidden"? |
| 12:02 | <rb> | feldmand2: Because your primary NS is not listed as an authoritative NS. |
| 12:02 | * | Daevien kicks caker in the butt |
| 12:02 | <swaj> | feldmand2: in teh "hidden primary" role, you'd run a nameserver on your node, but it wouldn't be registered with your registrar at all. You only set your domain to use Linode (or twisted4life) as it's nameservers, and then tell those servers to AXFR from your box. You the firewall the nameserver on your node to only communicate with your secondary servers. It's more secure, but also a little more |
| 12:02 | <swaj> | complicated to set up. |
| 12:02 | <feldmand2> | Daevian, swaj: I am managing the command line. But over complicating things with additonal applications is also an issue. |
| 12:02 | <Daevien> | feldmand2: your domains woudl shows ns1.linode.com up to ns5.linode.com but those servers woudl get the info from your linode on what records to have |
| 12:02 | <HoopyCat> | it's also referred to as a "shadow master" configuration :-) |

| 12:15 | <feldmand2> | swaj, rb: so registration of your nameserver makes it authoritative? Non-registration makes it hidden? |
| 12:15 | <swaj> | the authoritative DNS server for a zone is the server(s) listed in the zone's registration. |
| 12:16 | <dcraig> | your hidden primary nameserver running NSD will still be authorative, but nobody will know about it, because it won't be listed at your registrar, and it won't be included in your NS records |
| 12:16 | <rb> | feldmand2:"An authoritative name server is a name server that gives answers in response to questions asked about names in one or more zones." ... but my point is simply a "hidden primary" is not 'announced' to the world as being one of your NS. |
| 12:16 | <swaj> | your dns server will answer questions directly about the zones you configure it for |
| 12:16 | <swaj> | so it will be authoritative |
| 12:17 | <rb> | feldmand2: easy-read -> https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Authoritative_name_server |
| 12:17 | <swaj> | but the slave dns servers will also be authoritative for your zones, because they will answer queries directly for those zones |
| 12:18 | <dcraig> | when the NSD folks say that theirs is an authorative nameserver, they mean that it can't be configured to act as a recursive resolver |
| 12:18 | <dcraig> | or maybe it can, but that's not the default configuration |

| 12:28 | <dcraig> | how much of your domain has to be "hosted" with linode for you to feel ok, ethically, with using linode's dns service for the domain? |
| 12:29 | <feldmand2> | jed: what about those who cannot teach, and are trying desperately to do? |
| 12:29 | <@jed> | no idea |
| 12:29 | <avenj> | dcraig: I dunno, DNS is pretty bandwidth intensive. I'd feel bad about it |

| 12:29 | <HoopyCat> | dcraig: in the case of lan.hoopycat.com, the only references to linode are the NS records ;-) |
| 12:29 | <swaj> | feldmand2: and if you really are against using Linode's DNS manager, then use http://dns.he.net/ up to 50 zones for free, and they're bound to be better than something named twisted :P |
| 12:30 | <HoopyCat> | swaj: there's a package of python modules wanting to speak to you, and they seem pretty angry |
| 12:30 | <feldmand2> | HoopyCat, swaj: maybe I stimulated the linbot to produce the Asia Pacific message. I'm in the area. |
| 12:31 | <rb> | swaj feldmand2 to be clear, it's the DNS *Manager* that (i think?) does not (yet) support IPv6 PTR (swaj?) @Linode. Their zone file support is 'industry standard' ... |
| 12:31 | <swaj> | rb: that's correct. If you use AXFR to load the zones, then they work fine |
| 12:31 | -!- | juanmosquera [~c0a89261@webserver1.linode.com] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] |
| 12:31 | <swaj> | rb: but you can't "create" the PTR records through the manager |
| 12:32 | <rb> | swaj ok, sure. but you CAN toggle them in on the fron panel of your PDP8, in any case ... |
| 12:32 | <HoopyCat> | which is only a problem in a very specific use case where you probably already have account creds for dns.he.net :-) |
| 12:32 | <swaj> | well exactly. HE was easily because I already had a tunnelbroker.net account for my IPv6 fun :P |
| 12:33 | <swaj> | easily = easy |
| 12:33 | <HoopyCat> | i should go with their DNS for my ip6.arpa zones, simply because there's only so much typing IPv6 addresses backwards i can handle |
| 12:33 | <swaj> | I hate messing with zone files manually... gave that shit up years ago :P |
| 12:34 | <swaj> | there are tools out there that do a much better job than me |
| 12:34 | <HoopyCat> | oh, and if you like shadow masters, lan.hoopycat.com uses a shadow master for the shadow master, so that i can axfr while i axfr |

| 12:34 | <swaj> | rb: HE.net and Linode both have sufficient GUI's for most situations :P |
| 12:35 | <dcraig> | to type an ipv6 address backwards, just do dig -x <ipv6> and then copy the result |

| 12:39 | <swaj> | feldmand2: don't feel bad... DNS is a bitch |
| 12:39 | <praetorian> | Look at our zone file, now back at me, now back at your zone file and back at me again. |
| 12:39 | <rb> | hehe |
| 12:40 | <praetorian> | ps. whoever said sshfs: yes, works well over latent connections |
| 12:40 | <swaj> | I haven't messed with sshfs, sounds interesting |
| 12:40 | <feldmand2> | HoopyCat: If you need a novice reviewer for your DNS tutorial who will ask all the dumb questions I volunteer. |
| 12:40 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: eh, i've just been around the DNS a few times. conceptually, it's a brilliantly simple and reliable system, but that simplicity and reliability makes implementation a pain in the butt. there's also over 9000 different ways to do something (and everyone always wants to do the one thing that is forbidden) |
| 12:41 | <@jed> | praetorian: for varying definitions of 'well', in my experience |
| 12:41 | <TheFirst> | HoopyCat: forbiden fruit tastes the best dontcha know |
| 12:41 | <HoopyCat> | feldmand2: it'll end up on my blorg ... sometime. |
| 12:42 | <praetorian> | jed: Yeah. Generally okay tho. better than scp'ing the file there |
| 12:42 | <HoopyCat> | TheFirst: @ IN CNAME my-other-domain.com. |
| 12:42 | <praetorian> | jed: that said, the -o follow_symlink option should be by defaut. |
| 12:42 | <praetorian> | +l |
| 12:42 | <feldmand2> | Daevien: one reason I read to not rely on the Linode DNS manager is if you think you may migrate your web server in the future. Also if you are a gearhead and just want to understand what's under the hood. |
| 12:42 | <@jed> | I open a SSH controlmaster, then use textmate's rsync bundle |
| 12:42 | <@jed> | which is pretty A+ |
| 12:43 | <@jed> | I have it bound to shift+command+S (which saves), so I just use that chord to save now |

| 12:45 | <swaj> | Bind is a pain, I'd agree with the NSD recommendation. |
| 12:45 | <praetorian> | (from TDWTF): Server.ScriptTimeout = 21600; //six hours should probably be enough. If it keeps crashing, raise this. |
| 12:46 | <rb> | feldmand2: I assume it's OK ... I haven't used it much at all, but had the same assurances. I just find Bind9 more widely used & better documented & more flexible, which is why I use it @home. BUT, installing it on a small-RAM linode -- unnecessary resource-hog, imo |
| 12:46 | <praetorian> | I hate the fact I have code at work that has the similar switch. |
| 12:46 | <rb> | swaj How is Bind "a pain" any more than anything else? |
| 12:47 | <HoopyCat> | i think BIND is "more fun" to learn on, because you can use it in both roles (authoritative vs. recursive), but for production, i use NSD because it is simpler and tighter resource-size |
| 12:47 | <HoopyCat> | s/size/wise/ |
| 12:47 | <praetorian> | Probably for gnubies |
| 12:47 | <swaj> | rb: the last time I used bind was about 6 years ago in a chroot "jail", and it was a pain for me to setup |

| 12:50 | <atula> | please help me make a decision. (while this is OT, it somewhat relates :D). So I am building a home nfs/version control server etc.... an all purpose server. In any case, I want RAID-1 in it--deciding on hardware or software raid. I find from my limited time dealing with raid... I've had bad experience with hardware raid. I thought software raid is easier to manage and you are not relying on another controller card. In case of hard drive die, with a raid |
| 12:50 | <atula> | you need to check both the card and the drive.. while in software you'd just need to check the drive. |
| 12:50 | <dcraig> | feldmand2, http://dns.he.net/ |
| 12:50 | <Daevien> | praetorian: i havne't used textmate, but have you ever seen notepad++ ? it's got a bunch of features that are handy |
| 12:50 | <atula> | maybe I'm not thinking clearly. help! |
| 12:50 | <atula> | thank you. |
| 12:50 | <praetorian> | Daevien: I've seen it. i usee it at work |
| 12:51 | <praetorian> | Daevien: It won't work on my home desktop tho. I use Linux |
| 12:51 | <praetorian> | atula: FWIW, I use soft raid here. |
| 12:52 | <Daevien> | praetorian: er, p[retty sure there's a linux binary? and source? |
| 12:52 | <Nivex> | hardware raid *if done properly* (read expensively) provides great flexibility and manageability |
| 12:52 | <Nivex> | unfortunately, the cheaper hardware RAIDs have issues |
| 12:53 | <Nivex> | including one rather nasty incident I heard of where a newer firmware on the same card couldn't read the old array |
| 12:53 | <atula> | yeah. I can't afford a few grands to make hardware raid solution like I want... so might as well stick with software |
| 12:53 | <praetorian> | that's the case with most tbh |
| 12:53 | <atula> | that's my though t |
| 12:53 | <Nivex> | if you use Linux software RAID, you have a well known and portable format |
| 12:53 | <praetorian> | especially bios based raid |
| 12:53 | <praetorian> | soft raid is performance degrading tho |
| 12:53 | <Nivex> | just be prepared to spend the CPU cycles for the checksumming, especially in high I/O situations |
| 12:54 | <HoopyCat> | atula: good hardware RAID > software RAID > average hardware RAID |
| 12:54 | <praetorian> | i havent seen enough of it to make my life any harder. |
| 12:54 | <HoopyCat> | "good hardware RAID" also includes having spare hardware |
| 12:54 | <rb> | atula: ditto. 4 1Tb drives, software RAID-10 on Linux works a champ. I 'cheat' a bit, use a multilane SATA PCIx card to an external drive case for convenience ... if this is a "home server", mor than good enuf, imo |
| 12:55 | <atula> | yeah. alright, I'll just use software raid |
| 12:55 | <atula> | just want a simple home server |
| 12:55 | <atula> | save files... version control... dns... apache... for me:) |
| 12:55 | <praetorian> | Daevien: can't see anything. either way, i didnt like it that much to use as a textmate replacement :P |
| 12:55 | <Nivex> | the only issue I ever had on a home server was when 2/3 of a RAID5 failed. Thankfully I also rsynced data off to other machines, since I'm paranoid like that |
| 12:55 | <atula> | and possibly the wife... I don't think it's a big problem with software raid |
| 12:55 | <Nivex> | atula: you'll be fine |

| 12:56 | <praetorian> | no |
| 12:56 | <HoopyCat> | atula: it is not at all a backup |

| 19:32 | <pwnguin> | the youtube flash player sucks pretty bad in fullscreen for me |
| 19:33 | <pwnguin> | i just download the video and totem plays them effortlessly |
| 19:33 | <swaj> | I blame it on chrome and its embedded flash player. Safari seems to do better with the official flash client. |
| 19:33 | <sirpengi> | you'd also save more bandwidth if you didn't press enter so often |
| 19:33 | <pwnguin> | take note: google doesn't support green video playback |
| 19:34 | <JshWright> | I don't watch YouTube videos that don't run in the HTML5 player |
| 19:34 | <swaj> | <CR><LF> takes insane amounts of bandwidth :P |
| 19:34 | <pwnguin> | JshWright: is it any more efficient? |
| 19:34 | <sirpengi> | there's also the message envelope, in any case, it's a few more bytes for your youtube videos |

| 19:36 | <swaj> | I wanted to write one in C# |
| 19:36 | <HoopyCat> | i'm actually using an ICQ<->IRC gateway so i can use odigo |
| 19:36 | <swaj> | just to see how well managed code could handle it |
| 19:37 | <swaj> | I haven't used ngircd before. I should take a look at that |
| 19:38 | <Nivex> | only issue I see someone running into is that it defaults to 9 character nick per the RFC |
| 19:38 | <Nivex> | it can be overridden at compile time though |
| 19:38 | <swaj> | yeah |
| 19:39 | <swaj> | I was debating that in my C# ircd. 9 characters seems small, though I wanted to be true to the RFC unlike the beautiful "Unreal's" out there :P |
