[00:15] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: regarding reverse DNS, I can delegate it to a set of nameservers of your choice (say, on your VPS)
[00:16] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: I'm not a control panel person; CP's suck
[00:28] <obsidieth> i have never really used either
[00:28] <obsidieth> hows the vps coming anyway?
[00:32] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: I'm setting it up shortly.  There's a 30 min maintenance window coming up at 1AM PST, so you'll get the VPS info after that
[00:35] <obsidieth> :D great

[01:39] <obsidiet1> 50% packet loss to google :(
[01:41] <up_the_irons> ouch
[01:41] <obsidiet1> its not even a real storm and the internets start exploding :3
[01:49] <up_the_irons> obsidiet1: what's the packet loss from?
[01:50] <obsidiet1> im not quite sure
[01:50] <obsidiet1> i assume the isp has some issues somewhere
[01:50] <obsidiet1> the power has been sort of flickery too
[01:50] <obsidiet1> .au is third world in reguards to internet
[01:52] <up_the_irons> ouch

[01:54] <up_the_irons> hehe
[01:57] <obsidieth> is named/bind with ipv6 tricky to set up?
[01:57] <obsidieth> im doing some reading, but i've never actually tried it before
[01:57] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: not really
[01:57] <up_the_irons> although I'd recommend stay away from BIND
[01:57] <up_the_irons> there's a new DoS or priv escalation exploit like every week
[01:58] <up_the_irons> a good alternative is "unbound"
[01:58] <obsidieth> alright
[01:58] <up_the_irons> another one (been around longer) is tinydns
[01:58] <obsidieth> i thought bind was pretty much the standard?
[01:58] <up_the_irons> although tinydns has a pretty terse syntax, some ppl don't like it
[01:59] <up_the_irons> bind is used quite heavily, but just like how sendmail was ubiquitous, its favor has dwindled due to security issues that pop up time and time again
[02:05] <obsidieth> looks like it might be a challenge heh
[02:22] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: I'm setting up your VM now, BTW
[02:23] <obsidieth> :D great
[02:59] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: I've sent the welcome email to bigs
[02:59] <up_the_irons> bigs: check your mail when you wake up :)
[02:59] <obsidieth> gotcha.
[03:00] <obsidieth> is it possible for me to get the details or is that against policy
[03:02] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: against policy, I can only send things like root password to the person on the order
[03:04] <obsidieth> yeah i figured.
[03:04] <obsidieth> well thanks! i look forward to it
[03:06] <up_the_irons> no problem!
[03:09] <obsidieth> a couple questions
[03:09] <obsidieth> can you assign the ipv6 /48 separate namservers to the v4's, in theory
[03:17] <up_the_irons> obsidieth: yes
[03:21] <obsidieth> :)

[13:51] <up_the_irons> whoa, cablehead!
[13:51] <up_the_irons> cablehead: how'd you find this place? :)
[13:51] <cablehead> up_the_irons: you invited me! :)
[13:52] <up_the_irons> cablehead: oh yeah, ages ago ;)
[13:52] <cablehead> up_the_irons: haha, was it a couple of days ago?
[13:52] <cablehead> i was out of town for the weekend
[13:53] <up_the_irons> cablehead: ah, where'd ya go?
[13:53] <cablehead> up_the_irons: just up north of san rose .. to get out of the city for a bit
[13:54] <up_the_irons> cablehead: ah nice
[13:54] <up_the_irons> i've been there a few times
[13:59] <up_the_irons> cablehead: something that's gonna come up at some point -- I'm moving away from Xen and going to K
[13:59] <up_the_irons> whups
[13:59] <up_the_irons> cablehead: KVM
[14:00] <up_the_irons> cablehead: so one of these days I'd like to take your VM down and migrate it
[14:01] <up_the_irons> cablehead: I'll then increase your RAM and disk space to match current pricing (768MB RAM, 20GB disk, 100GB bandwidth)
[14:02] <up_the_irons> and get you an IPv6 block
[14:03] <cablehead> up_the_irons: oh wow, awesome
[14:03] <cablehead> up_the_irons: still for the same price?
[14:03] <up_the_irons> cablehead: yup
[14:04] <cablehead> up_the_irons: that romps on slice host's pricing :)
[14:04] <up_the_irons> cablehead: yeah i beat 'em to death ;)
[14:04] <cablehead> up_the_irons: no worries .. let me know when you need to take it down for the migration
[14:05] <up_the_irons> cablehead: that's my $20 special right now, so if you know of anyone else who wants to take advantage of it, send 'em here: http://arpnetworks.com/vps
[14:05] <up_the_irons> cablehead: ok, cool, i'll let you know when i'm ready for the migration
[14:05] <cablehead> up_the_irons: how long is the special going for?
[14:06] <cablehead> up_the_irons: if it's limited, i'd be pretty tempted to grab a 2nd slice :)
[14:06] <up_the_irons> cablehead: LOL
[14:06] <up_the_irons> cablehead: END'S TOMORROW ;)
[14:06] <up_the_irons> j/k
[14:06] <cablehead> up_the_irons: haha
[14:06] <cablehead> ah damn 'limit 1 per customer'
[14:06] <cablehead> fair enough
[14:06] <up_the_irons> cablehead: I don't have any plans to stop the special, it is my best seller right now
[14:07] <cablehead> up_the_irons: haha, cheers man
[14:08] <up_the_irons> cablehead: :)
[14:08] <cablehead> i should really upgrade that slice to hoary one day
[14:09] <up_the_irons> cablehead: why not go to jaunty?  i'm having good results w/ jaunty
[14:10] <cablehead> i like the idea of not upgrading again for a few more years :)
[14:10] <up_the_irons> ah, roger that
[14:10] <up_the_irons> cablehead: but isn't Hardy the current LTS?
[14:10] <up_the_irons> maybe you meant Hardy
[14:11] <cablehead> oh right
[14:11] <cablehead> up_the_irons: yeah, hardy is what i meant
[14:12] <cablehead> acronym fail
[14:12] <up_the_irons> cablehead: yeah, my managed VMs are all hardy, so I don't need to upgrade 'em for a while, just keep the patches going ;)  for the more cutting edge stuff (like KVM), i need jaunty
[14:13] <cablehead> up_the_irons: gotcha
[14:13] <cablehead> up_the_irons: so you are liking kvm over xen?
[14:14] <up_the_irons> cablehead: very much so, feels way more natural; networking is also set up much more nicely
[14:14] <up_the_irons> cablehead: I can boot an install .ISO of pretty much anything, VNC into the console, and start the install; it's just as if it is a real box and I'm at the monitor / kb
[14:16] <cablehead> up_the_irons: nice
[14:17] <up_the_irons> cablehead: it's all Tv's fault really...  making me try it ;)
[14:18] <cablehead> up_the_irons: hehe, oh that Tv ;)
[14:18] <up_the_irons> hehe
[14:29] <up_the_irons> some dude ordered yesterday and I spent the time provisioning the VM, and they told me today "Oh I don't need this anymore, please cancel it"
[14:29] <up_the_irons> W.T.F.
[14:29] <up_the_irons> thanks for wasting my time
