i havent been on there in ages
obsidieth: heh, stubborn!
services? hell haw
nickserv? nope
very raw
personally i think the big shell providers put a bit of pressure on admins to keep it that way:p
i c
then the admins bitch about the bots
lol
heh
obsidieth: did you and bigs recompile the kernel on your VM?
yeah i recompiled yesterday
hopefully i didnt disable anything you need, i stripped it out a bit
obsidieth: good to see it rebooted nicely.  Just don't take out ACPI, or else I can't shut it down cleanly if needed
i didnt remove anything that wasnt in dmesg |more
and had someone double check it
the reboot always scares me:p
ah OK
uh, that was in dmesg.
*
obsidieth: we could test it to be sure, at any time convenient for you
cd /usr/src && make buildkernel && make installkernel && make buildworld && make installworld && shutdown -r now
executed successfully.
i think we're in the clear
obsidieth: what I mean is, if I send an ACPI shutdown command to your VM, will it really shut down?  This is how I "power off" VMs gracefully before a host reboot, for example
sec
i didnt remove anything acpi.
shoudl work, but ive got some stuff up at the minute
obsidieth: no problem
welcome GenX
:)
ah, it's the conqueror
up_the_irons
i am sending someone your way maybe :)
up_the_irons: do you guys allow irc
Douglas: though i'm not a representitive
i'm almost 100% sure the answer is yes :p
cablehead: slap Joel, I haven't got a reply from him yet... ;)
forcefollow: FYI, your order will be fulfilled tonight.  I am little back logged right now.
so sorry for the delay

hah, nice to see a competitor, TekTonic, deleted my factual post that OpenBSD can be virtualized and VMs are available (on my site).
"You have been banned: fuck off"
srsly, if you don't even offer OpenBSD VMs in your portfolio, what do you care if they come to me...
up_the_irons: haha
evening, quick question regarding console access, mainly setting it up (if needed) came across this, http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/NetConsole  wondering if this is the correct method in setting it up or is there something else
using freebsd 7.2 vps
ctg-: no, console access is done via VNC.  See the portal, the IP, username, password is listed there
https://portal.arpnetworks.com  that is
aha, i completely missed that, thank you very much :)
ctg-: np :)
up_the_irons: you got around to me yet?
its been bugging me that 4.5 openbsd gives the virtual host issues
i think id rather go with freebsd 7.2
unless you dont mind me trying to upgrade and crashing the host
=)
