| 07:37 | <Woet> | Patience? |
| 07:47 | <dzho> | any UX practitioner can tell you 5 minutes is an unacceptable wait |
| 07:55 | <ponas> | It may take up to two hours before your new password works in all our systems. |
| 07:56 | <ponas> | ^-- real message at $dayjob |
| 07:56 | <dwfreed> | oof |
| 07:56 | <grawity> | "@hourly /etc/sync-passwords.sh" |
| 07:58 | <ericoc> | love the .sh randomly tossed in to /etc/ |
| 07:58 | <grawity> | I mean, it's literally the purpose of /etc |
| 07:58 | <ericoc> | what about /usr/local/bin/ tho |
| 07:58 | <grawity> | I actually put shellscripts there because I get etckeeper tracking for free |
| 07:58 | <ericoc> | orrr if you wanna be really out there, /opt/ |
| 07:59 | <ponas> | hey, /opt is great |
| 08:00 | <ericoc> | splunk is one of the only things i know that uses /opt |
| 08:00 | <ericoc> | and this enterprisey backup software called commvault |
| 08:01 | <ponas> | we use python + winrm to run powershell commands on an AD DC, where the powershell command contains a base64 coded encrypted GPG message containing the plaintext password |
| 08:02 | <ponas> | if the password change is successful, we toss the message |
| 08:02 | <dzho> | ah, /opt, the N+1 standard of filesystem hierarchies https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/927:_Standards |
| 08:02 | <ponas> | it's really hard to do this right(tm) unless you use AD as one true password store |
| 08:02 | <grawity> | ponas: ...as opposed to just changing the damn thing via LDAP? |
| 08:03 | <ponas> | pretty much |
| 08:03 | <grawity> | :| |
| 08:03 | <dwfreed> | I mean, you could still change the password via LDAP and not use AD as the source of truth |
| 08:03 | <dwfreed> | instead of flinging powershell commands across a network |
| 08:03 | <ponas> | I wish we could just make some hashes and give that to AD |
| 08:03 | <grawity> | yeah, but changing an AD password via ldap seems several orders of magnitude simpler than winrm|powershell|gpg |
| 08:04 | <grawity> | so I really don't get why one would choose the latter |
| 08:04 | <ponas> | we use the winrm + powershell foo for syncing users and groups as well |
| 08:04 | <ponas> | works pretty great, it's the password part that sucks |
| 08:04 | <dwfreed> | which can also be created via ldap |
| 08:04 | <grawity> | yes |
| 08:05 | <grawity> | all of my "import this year's students to AD" etc. scripts are just Perl with Net::LDAP |
| 08:05 | <dwfreed> | eww perl |
| 08:05 | <grawity> | the password change website is PHP with a few calls to the LDAP module |
| 08:05 | <dwfreed> | ewww php |
| 08:05 | <grawity> | dwfreed: I get the list of students from a MS Access database. |

| 10:32 | <ubuntuuser> | hello, has anyone here has the problem of ssh sessions being unresponsive to any keyboard input? when i connect to one of my servers, it just logs in and after a second it's completely unresponsive then. I only can close session by closing my own shell. |
| 10:32 | <grawity> | do you have the same problem over both IPv4 and IPv6? |
| 10:32 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: yes |
| 10:33 | <ubuntuuser> | and it's only one server, the others work just fine |

| 10:39 | <grawity> | try logging in to the server's console via Lish, see if e.g. `netstat -tn` shows any connections stuck with a high SendQ, or maybe whether `tcpdump -n -i eth0 "port 22"` shows packets still arriving |
| 10:39 | <grawity> | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ not many ideas |
| 10:47 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: even lish is extremely slow |
| 10:47 | <ubuntuuser> | like one key press takes about 30 seconds to go through |
| 10:48 | <grawity> | odd |
| 10:49 | <grawity> | do you mean just the server's console, or including the lish commands themselves? |

| 10:49 | <ubuntuuser> | after logging into the server on lish |
| 10:49 | <grawity> | if it's just after you attach to the console, check whether the CPU isn't overloaded for example |
| 10:49 | <ubuntuuser> | when i type one key, it takes forever to show up |
| 10:50 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: it says 2% cpu usage |

| 10:53 | <ubuntuuser> | i restarted server |
| 10:53 | <ubuntuuser> | now even when i try to log in from lish, it takes a very long time to allow me to input any keys |
| 10:56 | <ubuntuuser> | how can i remove network-manager |
| 10:56 | <ubuntuuser> | aparently that's the cause |
| 10:57 | <grawity> | how did you figure that out |
| 10:57 | <smallclone> | ubuntuuser: why do you think that's the cause |
| 10:57 | <smallclone> | i hate networkmanager more than like, anyone, but that sounds a little far fetched for what you're describing |
| 10:58 | <ubuntuuser> | smallclone: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2137366 |
| 10:59 | <smallclone> | pretty sure ubuntu doesn't even install networkmanager by default |
| 10:59 | <smallclone> | it's very unlikely that what you're experiencing is due to that, but you could always look at your interfaces file if you want to be sure |
| 10:59 | <grawity> | ubuntuuser: can you check whether your network configuration matches the problem description? |
| 11:00 | <grawity> | that is, what actual IP address, netmask, bcast do you see configured in `ip addr`? |
| 11:01 | <grawity> | it's a 5-year-old description, so I would usually assume such a bug has been fixed by now |
| 11:26 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: ok i changed a few things, i isolated the problem to putting sessions |
| 11:26 | <ubuntuuser> | putty* |
| 11:27 | <ubuntuuser> | on my linux machines, it works fine, and i am able to ssh from another server to this server using putty too, so i guess there's an issue with putty here? |
| 11:27 | <smallclone> | the answer is almost always yes |
| 11:27 | <grawity> | or with Windows, or with the computer in general |
| 11:28 | <grawity> | which PuTTY version are you using, does PuTTY on your Linux machines have the same problem? |
| 11:28 | <grawity> | actually, since you said the *console* via Lish is also slow |
| 11:29 | <grawity> | does the same happen if you connect to Lish via web? |
| 11:29 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: putty 0.66, lish has the issue of lag |
| 11:34 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: yes, putty has the same issue on another machine |
| 11:35 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: after logging in, a few seconds in, it freezes |

| 12:02 | <ubuntuuser> | dwfreed: yes, that's what i realized too, there's something peculiar here |
| 12:02 | <grawity> | I wonder if it depends on something like what ciphers it negotiates |
| 12:02 | <grawity> | or in general on bugfixes that your version is missing |
| 12:02 | <ubuntuuser> | grawity: i don't think so |
| 12:03 | <ubuntuuser> | cause i have no problem on other servers with it |
| 12:03 | <grawity> | why not? have you tried 0.70 or 0.71nightly to confirm? |
| 12:03 | <ubuntuuser> | and this server has the issue of lag |
| 12:03 | <grawity> | if you think the problem is the client, test the client |
| 12:03 | <grawity> | though, this is unrelated, but it somewhat reminds me of last week's OpenSSH 7.8 issue |

| 12:56 | <GeorgeJetson> | I'm trying to enter an SPF record and the Record Name given to me was "metalevel.link." with a period .... however when I enter "metalevel.link." with the period I am told invalid name. When I remove the period, there is nothing in the Name field for the SPF TXT record I create in the DNS manager. |
| 12:57 | <relidy> | If your domain is "metalevel.link", then that is the correct behavior. |
| 12:59 | <GeorgeJetson> | relidy: you mean that I should enter it as "metalevel.link" (without a period at the end)? |
| 12:59 | <GeorgeJetson> | and that "metalevel.link." with a period is invalid and the people who told me to do so should be informed that it is incorrect? |
| 13:00 | <relidy> | The Linode UI doesn't need the period at the end. If you're actually managing a zone file by hand, that'd be more important. In this case, the "host" field is used for "subdomains" under your domain, so it should be empty if you're setting up an SPF record for the root domain. |
| 13:02 | <GeorgeJetson> | I see. Thanks |

| 14:01 | <grawity> | GeorgeJetson: in other words, this depends on where you're editing the zone |
| 14:01 | <grawity> | in plain-text zonefiles, trailing dot tells the DNS server to *not* append the zone's own name (so that you don't accidentally end up with metalevel.link.metalevel.link) |
| 14:02 | <relidy> | ^++ |
| 14:03 | <grawity> | (to refer to the zone root, you'd use "metalevel.link." with the dot, or just "@" which specifically means 'the zone root') |
| 14:03 | <grawity> | but in web-based control panels, it varies |
| 14:03 | <grawity> | sometimes there's a "subdomain" field that you have to leave completely empty |
| 14:04 | <relidy> | "subdomain", "host", "name" ... it's horribly inconsistent. |
| 14:05 | <LouWestin> | grawity: Is this an issue in Linode’s webpanel? |
| 14:05 | <grawity> | no |
| 14:05 | <LouWestin> | K |
| 14:05 | <grawity> | since SPF records are *usually* for the zone root – I just checked Linode's DNS manager, and you can just leave it empty |
| 14:05 | <LouWestin> | Ok thanks. |
| 14:06 | <grawity> | or as GeorgeJetson found out, it autodetects when you're entering the zone root / bare domain name, and autocorrects it |
| 14:08 | <LouWestin> | ^this is why I hang out here. |

| 16:07 | <Peng> | did Limelight and Linode partner because it's alliterative? |
| 16:07 | <ausjke> | if i do 'ping website.com' the ping output shows 'li23-whatever.members.linode.com', checked website.com has no CNAME, why linode.com shows up in ping? |
| 16:07 | <ausjke> | must be some wrong configuration i assume? |
| 16:07 | <Peng> | It's the reverse DNS for the IP address |
| 16:08 | <ausjke> | Peng: that's right, but why ping outputs the reverse DNS instead of using the "forward" dns name |
| 16:08 | <ausjke> | in this case, use 'website.com' |
| 16:09 | <Peng> | I don't know. ping was probably designed that way before I was born. |
| 16:09 | <ausjke> | or maybe the reverse ip setting should be the true website instead, so it's not well configured? or linode does the reverse dns using its own hostname by default? |
| 16:10 | <Peng> | Linode sets it to that by default. You can change the PTRs for your IP addresses in the "Reverse DNS" part of the "Remote Access" part of the manager. |
| 16:10 | <Peng> | It's not wrong, it's just the default setting. |
| 16:10 | <ausjke> | my own linode hosts do not show this, so i must have modified the reverse thing |
| 16:10 | <Peng> | Maybe |

| 16:12 | <ausjke> | to verify i logged into linode, but under dns manager, there is no placeholder for ptr |
| 16:15 | <jaskal> | @ausjke: it's not under the DNS manager, it's under the "Remote Access' tab of each individual linode. |
| 16:15 | <ausjke> | and i could not set up a cname either, hostname: ftp, aliases to: www.mysite.com, then ping 'ftp.mysite.com' never worked...either i'm too dumb, or the dns manager is not intuitive |
| 16:16 | <ausjke> | however if i do: hostname:www.fake.com, alias: www.mysite.com, it works, i have to use a different domain for cname? |
| 16:16 | <ausjke> | DO's cname can be set up easily, i must be missing something |
| 16:16 | <ausjke> | jaskal: thanks, forgot that, still, wish dns-manager has a help page or something to remind that |
| 16:17 | <jaskal> | To be fair, it is documented: https://www.linode.com/docs/networking/dns/configure-your-linode-for-reverse-dns/ |
| 16:18 | <ausjke> | jaskal: somethings just could not find that page, it will be nice to add a help tips into the UI itself, many UI does this these days |
| 16:18 | <ausjke> | s/somethings/sometimes/ |
| 16:18 | <jaskal> | As for the DNS manager, I've used both Linode's and DO's and found them both to be equally intuitive. It's worth nothing that DNS entries are applied only once ever 15 minutes - this is stated at the bottom of the DNS manager. Perhaps you've not waited long enough for the change to apply and propagate? |
| 16:18 | <ausjke> | jaskal: waited 3 days actually, no fish |
| 16:19 | <jaskal> | That being said, without visibility of what you're doing it's hard to provide any support here. If you're certain you've made the correct changes and those changes aren't reflecting in DNS, perhaps a support ticket? |
| 16:20 | <ausjke> | you're right, filing a ticket now, thanks |
| 16:20 | <ausjke> | i host multiple domains on the same IP, so it's better to do the default reverse IP i assume |
| 16:21 | <ausjke> | otherwise ping a.com will show b.com in the output, which is even more confusing |
| 16:21 | <ausjke> | i will let them all show members.linode.com instead |
| 16:21 | <jaskal> | Personally I set the rDNS to be the hostname of the server, in all instances. Multiple hostnames can still resolve to the server for application specific stuff. |

| 17:32 | <ubuntuuser> | smallclone: not on linode, i'm developing on a local machine, using linode as git repo |
| 17:32 | <smallclone> | ah ok |
| 17:32 | <smallclone> | what is "wall format"? |
| 17:36 | <ubuntuuser> | smallclone: desktop grid, i like using a 3 x 3 grid or 4 x 4 when doing web dev, so i can put windows maximized on each workspace and quickly switch workspaces and move things around, the main benefit is that i use less mouse / track pad, and I get to see things at all times easily, the key difference between grid and the linear workspace switcher is that it allows for quicker switches, as you can put the dev window in the middle, and |
| 17:37 | <smallclone> | oh so you mean the way the workspace switcher looks? |
| 17:37 | <ubuntuuser> | smallclone: and behaves |
| 17:38 | <smallclone> | iirc there's a tweak-tool package that allows you to make more changes to ubuntu's desktop |
| 17:38 | <ubuntuuser> | smallclone: with grid / wall format you can press ctrl + alt and different arrow keys and traverse left right, up down quickly |
| 17:38 | <smallclone> | which is weird because now the desktop is gnome3 basically but i believe the tool still exists |
| 17:38 | <kenyon> | ubuntuuser: what you want is called a tiling window manager. for example, xmonad (which is what I use on my main workstation) |
| 17:38 | <smallclone> | yeah i mean you're basically emulating tiling functionality anyway |
| 17:39 | <ubuntuuser> | kenyon: smallclone: ubuntu 16.04 used to have this tweak installable |
| 17:40 | <ubuntuuser> | kenyon: smallclone: ubuntu 18.04 doesn't have any such packages |
| 17:40 | <ubuntuuser> | there's https://askubuntu.com/questions/1040075/can-i-have-rectangular-grid-workspace-in-ubuntu-18-04 |
| 17:41 | <ubuntuuser> | it's talking about chrome-gnome-shell which only allows for 2 x 2 and that's finnicky as well |
| 17:41 | <relidy> | XFCE for life |
| 17:41 | <ubuntuuser> | i will look into xmonad |
| 17:42 | <ubuntuuser> | relidy: i don't personally like the look of xfce |
| 17:42 | <smallclone> | you could always just install unity if that's what you're used to, though it's no longer maintained |
| 17:44 | <smallclone> | i use cinnamon on a work machine and it's pretty nice, though i'm not at all opinionated about windows as long as i can alt-tab through them |

| 21:20 | <Unit193> | That's not exactly close to Unity though. |
| 21:27 | <MrPPS> | no, but I figured if they forayed into xmonad, "identical to unity" is maybe not quite what they're after :P |
| 21:27 | <MrPPS> | I was basing a desire for tiling wm's on that, but just observing that the workspace feature they mentioned is still a thing in i3 |

| 22:23 | <ubuntuuser> | ok i've decided on mate as unity replacement for ubuntu 18.04 |
| 22:24 | <ubuntuuser> | it has everything unity had for me, and i can easily have a workspace grid |
| 22:25 | <ubuntuuser> | MrPPS: yes, I wanted the wall feature to work and unfortunately gnome3 doesn't have that |
| 22:25 | <MrPPS> | great, glad you've found something you like :) |
| 22:27 | <ubuntuuser> | now just need to autostart cairo-dock and my work environemt is set |
