| ballen | nice
yea when we testin those suckers out | [00:01] |
| up_the_irons | dbgi: if it works | [00:02] |
| dbgi | kk | [00:03] |
| ..... (idle for 24mn) | ||
| up_the_irons | am i srsly this retarded.. why can't I make single quote (') become an escaped single quote (')
irb(main):019:0> "foo's".tr("'", "'") => "foo's" irb(main):020:0> "foo's".tr("'", "\'") => "foo's" irb(main):021:0> "foo's".tr("'", "\'") => "foo's" irb(main):022:0> "foo's".tr("'", "\\'") => "foo\s" irb(main):023:0> "foo's".tr("'", "\\'") => "foo\s" | [00:27] |
| ballen | "'".tr("'", "'")
should be fine your first one irb doesn't show char's escaped | [00:30] |
| up_the_irons | oh | [00:30] |
| ballen | it just shows them | [00:30] |
| up_the_irons | up_the_irons boggles | [00:30] |
| ballen | irb(main):006:0> '''
=> "'" | [00:31] |
| up_the_irons | lol
well, it doesn't show it in my output either (in my Rails view); so guess i gotta find another way, or say f*ck it it's not so important if it is gonna be this whiny about it | [00:31] |
| ballen | why does it need to escaped? | [00:32] |
| up_the_irons | b/c I want:
'Garry's Company' -> 'Garry's Company' so I can copy & paste onto command line but I could just double quote it and be done with it | [00:32] |
| ballen | that is very silly | [00:34] |
| up_the_irons | until you've had to type the same thing 50 times
but with different names | [00:35] |
| ballen | yea one sec I'll figure ito ut | [00:35] |
| up_the_irons | it's not all that important really, cuz I can double quote it and be on my way | [00:36] |
| ballen | mmk
hah: "foo's".sub(/(')/,'\ 1').tr(" ", "") sub and tr won't do it alone | [00:37] |
| up_the_irons | omfg | [00:41] |
| ballen | and if you take that space out
in the sub the 1 turns into a literal 1 for whatever fucking reason do something like: "foo's".sub(/(')/,'\#1').tr("#", "") so you can not remove spaces | [00:42] |
| up_the_irons | that's insane | [00:44] |
| ballen | heh | [00:45] |
| up_the_irons | f*ck
F*CK i guess this is a problem i want to have but i just spent the last 30 minutes writing code that I found I already wrote 6 months ago | [00:49] |
| ballen | hah | [00:49] |
| up_the_irons | all nice and tested too
yep, works like a charm | [00:49] |
| ballen | hahaha | [00:51] |

| Rada | Happy new customer here :) | [02:08] |
| up_the_irons | Rada!
Rada: welcome to #arpnetworks :) Rada: what kinds of things are you doing with your new VM? i always wonder what my boxes are up to... | [02:14] |
| ballen | hacking some gibsons | [02:18] |

| Rada | up_the_irons: I'm probably gonna use it for irssi in a screen, a lot of web serving, a little unrealircd and some mail
And thanks :) | [02:56] |
| up_the_irons | Rada: nice :) | [02:56] |
| Rada | My current server got shut down because of political issues at work =/
To think I had free bandwith and electricity all this time. | [02:56] |
| up_the_irons | hehe | [03:00] |
| Rada | god... i love the way you just give a good generic install. | [03:04] |
| up_the_irons | :)
i'm quite a minimalist myself Rada: how'd you find out about my services anyway? I noticed 2 orders from DK yesterday, within an hour, was wondering if I got on some danish forum or something... | [03:06] |
| Rada | Oh it's my friend whom I hosted on my server at work, he found you somehow and told me he ordered from you
I'm pretty sure he found you via google. | [03:08] |
| up_the_irons | Rada: ah ok | [03:09] |
| Rada | but yeah, serious quality BSD hosting is rare these days. | [03:10] |
| up_the_irons | I aim to change that | [03:10] |
| Rada | :) | [03:10] |
| up_the_irons | although I do hear RootBSD and JohnCompanies come up a lot, and people have good things to say
but i guess that *is* only 2 other companies not like the thousands of Linux VPS providers out there ;) | [03:10] |
| Rada | exactly
rootbsd is a lot more pricey than your plan | [03:11] |
| up_the_irons | yeah they're expensive
kinda like Slicehost | [03:12] |
| Rada | You know what, after actually looking at the alternatives out there I'm happy my friend told me about arpnetworks. He really did his research. | [03:13] |
| up_the_irons | yeah, apparently :) cuz I don't do any paid advertising
although a search for "FreeBSD VPS" on google brings me at #4 now | [03:14] |
| Rada | I'd aim to be #1 at something more generic like "freebsd hosting" | [03:15] |
| up_the_irons | i'm quite impressed i actually achieved that; i must know something about SEO, but i really don't
yeah, that'd be a good one to get man, i'm nowhere for that keyword ;) | [03:15] |

| Rada | What kind of people buy ip transit? | [03:35] |
| up_the_irons | Rada: web hosting companies, colo companies, big gaming companies, lots and lots others | [03:37] |
| Rada | oh
So they just buy... bandwith? like how? Do you relay their traffic then? oh and my friend Rasmus hasn't heard anything about his vps yet | [03:38] |
| up_the_irons | Rada: they just buy bandwidth, yeah. They order a cross connect to me (copper or fiber), and I light up the port. Most will request a large block of IPs also, and I'll assign those as downstream | [03:39] |
| *** | nerdd has joined #arpnetworks | [03:40] |
| Rada | oh, nice. | [03:40] |
| up_the_irons | Rada: yeah I know about Rasmus, I'm behind. is he @nerdd on twitter?
nerdd! | [03:40] |
| Rada | :D | [03:40] |
| nerdd | Yup | [03:40] |
| up_the_irons | speak of the devil
nerdd: your VPS is coming in like 30 minutes or less | [03:40] |
| nerdd | Rada tipped me about this channel ;)
up_the_irons: Uh, nice! | [03:41] |
| Rada | nerdd: In english it's "Oh" not "Uh", | [03:41] |
| up_the_irons | LOL | [03:42] |
| Rada | even the sounds we make depend on culture and language. | [03:42] |
| nerdd | Rada: Tss.. A minor error, wouldn't you say? I'm sure the meaning translated well enough | [03:43] |
| Rada | uh, yeah...

| bithash | Hello people | [20:15] |
| Just wondering if I should know anything about policies procedures at arpnetworks, I just got myself a new account
same deal as the topic for the day | [20:20] | |
| mike-burns | What kind of policies? | [20:21] |
| bithash | I am not really sure..anything that stands out?
This also happens to be my first hosting account of any sort.. so pardon my ignorance in general | [20:23] |
| mike-burns | Aside from anything that you've seen in the emails from Garry (which wasn't much), I've just been following a "don't be a dick" philosophy with regards to what I use my account for.
But I don't know of anything formal. up_the_irons will do RDNS for you, and in general is super-helpful for anything you need him to do. | [20:24] |
| bithash | fair enough :) Yeah I am not into any spamming or anything..just did not want on start on the wrong foot
ah ok | [20:25] |
| mike-burns | Yeah just don't do something illegal.
And if you do, make sure to split the profits with up_the_irons . | [20:26] |
| bithash | lol
aight..noted So i see that the forward dns to the server would be <servername>.cust.arpnetworks.com ? | [20:26] |
| mike-burns | You can run your own DNS if you want something custom. | [20:28] |
| bithash | cool
and finally, is the irc channel an acceptable medium for any support requests? not in the main channel of course | [20:29] |
| mike-burns | I don't know how up_the_irons feels about it, but we do all make requests here (or via private message) and he takes care of them.
I suspect he's okay with this, until he gets too many customers. | [20:30] |
| bithash | very nice. yep, I won't be a bother, just curious.
Thanks for coming forward mike-burns :) I really do appreciate it. | [20:31] |

| sroute | sroute thinks "dont be a dick" is a good philosophy | [20:58] |
| *** | ballen has joined #arpnetworks | [21:00] |
| sroute | bithash do you have some server admin experience? | [21:03] |
| bithash | Yes, I do manage a few servers
apache, mysql heavy | [21:04] |
| sroute | ah good. chances are then you won't have many requests... you get a VPS and in this case they really do look like a machine - if you care to compile and install your own kernel, go for it. Not like OpenVZ.
Other than working with Garry while he was doing some beta testing on a new platform I can't say that I've had a need for a support request... the thing just keeps on ticking. Boring. I like boring. | [21:05] |
| bithash | Yeah I got the VPS which is the topic of discussion today .. working on configuring it at the moment, I like the download speeds already :) | [21:07] |

| up_the_irons | hey bithash, welcome to #arpnetworks
bithash: you can ask for support in here, but usually I'll just refer you to support@arpnetworks.com if I'm busy and yeah, "don't be a dick" is a great policy, I should replace my AUP page with <div class='web-two-point-oh'>Don't Be A Dick</div> ;) | [22:58] |
| bithash | thanks up_the_irons. :) | [23:00] |
| up_the_irons | no problem | [23:00] |
| visinin | div.web-two-point-oh { shininess: off-the-hook; beta: hell-yeah; } | [23:00] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: where you hear about my services btw?
visinin: haha nice | [23:00] |
| bithash | yeah I just wanted a better understanding abt arpnetworks
I saw a few forum posts on webhostingtalk.com which recommended you guys | [23:02] |
| up_the_irons | sroute: I'm glad you're bored; i'm having more fun than you ;)
bithash: ah cool yeah that blew up yesterday, had like 2 popular threads mention me | [23:02] |
| bithash | Oh, so its just you?
I mean, are there more people involved? | [23:03] |
| up_the_irons | just me | [23:03] |
| bithash | awsome | [23:04] |
| up_the_irons | i have some other guys help me when needed, but for the most part it is just me | [23:04] |
| bithash | gotcha | [23:04] |
| up_the_irons | sroute: I've been wondering, since you run SMP and APIC is enabled on your VM, does "date; sleep 1; date" produce the correct output? (1 second) | [23:06] |
| .... (idle for 15mn) | ||
| bithash | up_the_walls, so how do I use the vnc service for console view?
heh..sorry up_the_irons I meant .. | [23:21] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: get a VNC client and give it the IP and password listed
bithash: there is also another way to get console view, in an up-and-coming new feature, where you SSH into a console server and can see your VM; think of it like serial-over-IP :) Email support@arpnetworks.com your SSH pub key if you want to try it out | [23:25] |
| bithash | slick
so with method 1, I am not sure if I follow the "password listed", is it the one that I got with the welcome email? | [23:27] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: oh, thought you saw -- log into the portal and click on your "Services", you'll then see the VNC info | [23:29] |
| bithash | up_the_irons: thanks, yes I got it now:) | [23:32] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: :) | [23:32] |
| bithash | missed the vnc section earlier | [23:32] |
| up_the_irons | no problem | [23:32] |
| bithash | Is the VNC server common to all vps boxes? | [23:42] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: what do you mean? | [23:43] |
| bithash | nvm. got it :) | [23:44] |
| up_the_irons | it's specific to the VPS host you're on. So if your VM moves to a different host, the VNC IP will change | [23:44] |
| bithash | sorry abt that | [23:44] |
| up_the_irons | no worries | [23:44] |
| bithash | different host?
physical machine you mean ..? | [23:44] |
| up_the_irons | yeah, physical machine | [23:44] |
| bithash | aight
do you add the forward dns entry for a new vps hostname by default? | [23:44] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: yeah i do | [23:54] |
| bithash | hmm..mine did not seem to propagate yet
can you please double check? lmk if you need the hostname :) I can wait if its just a propagation delay | [23:55] |
| up_the_irons | works for me | [23:57] |
| bithash | its rig | [23:58] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: you don't have to use that hostname either, most people change it | [23:58] |
| bithash | the server hostname is fine
just the dns | [23:58] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: ooh right, you requested a special hostname | [23:58] |
| bithash | :) | [23:58] |
| up_the_irons | bithash: what would you like it to be, "rig.cust.arpnetworks.com" ?
you don't have to use my domain, most people find it boring anyway ;) | [23:59] |
| bithash | yeah , that would be just fine :) | [23:59] |
