coil_ is now known as Guest90206 up_the_irons: toddf: since the cronjob discussion, i started staggering the nightly cronjob's on default installs. about 1/3 of the vm cronjobs run at normal time, 1/3 run an hour later, and 1/3 run an hour earlier. it has eliminated that issue RandalSchwartz: you could sleep random too
that's fun up_the_irons: RandalSchwartz: that's a great t-shirt slogan ;) RandalSchwartz: what... "sleep random"? up_the_irons: mick_laptop: i do have a referral program, but what i don't have is a way of tracking who referred who and who stayed longer than 3 months (i generally require, now, for the free referral month, that the person who was referred stays 3 months) ***: vtoms has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.) cmeiklejohn: up_the_irons: do a lot of people stay less than that? ***: vtoms has joined #arpnetworks up_the_irons: cmeiklejohn: seems to be the cut off mark. if someone is gonna leave, they leave within 3 months; otherwise they tend to be lifers cmeiklejohn: up_the_irons: interesting.
I plan on staying a while since I just went through the process of migrating a bunch from linode. ;) up_the_irons: there's a lot of people that are like "i just wanna try this out"
then there are the people looking for a permanent home for their services RandalSchwartz: by the way, we cancelled our EC2 on sunday. up_the_irons: cmeiklejohn: yeah so you're in the 2nd group ;)
RandalSchwartz: woo :) RandalSchwartz: down from $155/month to $70/month, with far better connectivity
and freebsd instead of a Dead OS -: up_the_irons wonders what connectivity EC2 has up_the_irons: i actually never checked... RandalSchwartz: well - they throttle, I think up_the_irons: RandalSchwartz: i aim to please
RandalSchwartz: ah RandalSchwartz: they want you to buy lots of machines, so the per-machine limit seems low up_the_irons: btw, if anyone wants a netbook recommendation; i just got an MSI Wind 1350 and it is bad ass. i'm on it now cmeiklejohn: up_the_irons: I'll check it out. RandalSchwartz: I'm up to "Professional" on ipv6.he.net/certification/ up_the_irons: RandalSchwartz: yeah, they are geared toward "need 50 VMs to index your dictionary?" and then after it's done, you destroy the vms RandalSchwartz: I just need to move my secondary from afraid.org to he.net to get the next level up_the_irons: cmeiklejohn: what drew me in was the incredible contrast on the screen coupled with great brightness. usually, a lot of brightness will wash out the screen and you get greys. not with this little guy.
cmeiklejohn: and at $279, it was a no brainer cmeiklejohn: up_the_irons: interesting. I have a Asus Eee right now which is pretty decent. up_the_irons: cmeiklejohn: yeah i almost went the Asus route cmeiklejohn: up_the_irons: what are you running on it? up_the_irons: the screen didn't impress me quite as much
cmeiklejohn: ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition. but then i installed xmonad on top and run xmonad with a full gnome session in the background cmeiklejohn: cool, i'm running ubuntu 10.04 netbook as well.
I almost went the xmonad route, but didn't. up_the_irons: everything worked out of the box, no screwing with anything, not even having to download wifi firmware
wifi, sound, sleep, hibernate, everything
so i'm quite impressed
i gotta stick in another stick of ram (only comes with 1G), and then maybe i'm thinking of putting in an SSD. only thing with the SSD is, it would increase my TCO by about 50%, cuz this thing was so cheap to begin with
it's not my primary laptop, so it doesn't need to be blazing fast cmeiklejohn: what's your primary? up_the_irons: ThinkPad T61 mhoran: Nice. ***: Guest90206 has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out)

Not sure about the others.
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2010-04-05-FreeBSD-EC2.html toddf: mhoran: oh yeah I saw that discussion here earlier
so EC2 requires a modified kernel kindof like xen eh? mhoran: I'd imagine someone has tried to get NetBSD on there, not sure of their success. And Open, too. cmeiklejohn: I believe ec2 is xen. mhoran: Yes.
But even though FreeBSD will run on the latest Xen, it doesn't run on EC2 Xen. toddf: arpnetworks should slowly automate VM creation processing and start competing with EC2. there is no competition in the price and quality, so why should EC2 get all the money? ;-) fink_: toddf: yea! toddf: <sarcasm>hey lets all sign a petition to have arpnetworks compete with EC2, yeah, that'll take the cake</sarcasm> fink_: we could start a petition for tshirts mhoran: We could just make t-shirts. cmeiklejohn: Yes, that say "FreeBSD on EC2" ***: cmeiklejohn has quit IRC (Quit: leaving)

fink_ has joined #arpnetworks norf: hello, i jut got my vps activated...i only recieved one ip address in the email
i clicked the 5 ip address option
when i made the order
can someone straighten this out? I already sent an email concerning this. nesta: have you logged in and checked ifconfig ?
hello norf fink_: norf: did you look at your account page? norf: fink_: the email sent to me only contains one ip address. fink_: member:norf: did you look at your account page? norf: i have not logged in to the vps yet, since i want to make sure i have my 5 ip addresses...
before i start putting things together.. fink_: log in and check out the admin page and your ifconfig
if it's not correct, then start freaking out norf: alright. nesta: norf: it's most likely all okay :) norf: sorry, i was just expecting a list of ip addresses assigned to my vps
in the email
you guys might want to think about that.... nesta: norf: it usually goes like 123,124,125,126
most people would know that :) norf: Ive leased dedicated machines from systeminplace, and corenetworks...they always told me what ip addresses are assigned to me when I made an order...especially the first order. nesta: aww fink_: norf: let us know if you didn't get all the ips you requested norf: alright.
yeah, ifconfig is only showing the 1 ip
ill pastebin
and rc.conf doesnt have the 5 ips set up either. nesta: :-/ RandalSchwartz: norf - you have to do that yourself
your addresses are assigned, as described by your account pages norf: http://paste.uni.cc/20794 RandalSchwartz: but you have to do the allocation yourself
Yeah - that doesn't matter
go make your settings match your allocation norf: hmm RandalSchwartz: oh wait - it does norf: i can do that, but id expect a host to set up the ips i ordered to have them set up RandalSchwartz: uh - it's set up.
if you want the aliases, that's not typical norf: i dont see them RandalSchwartz: right
you're listening on 34
and you have the right netmask norf: id expect the aliases set up.. RandalSchwartz: you expect unusually then
I'd expect them *not*
because first, it's simple
and second, it's variable norf: not really, ive been through a few dedi hosts a vps hosts...this is a first for me. RandalSchwartz: the hard part is that *they* allocated the range for you
that's something you can't do at all norf: i know that.
but i expect the ips i ordered ready to be used ...
no matter, ill do it. RandalSchwartz: seriously. edit 1 parameter, reboot.
the IPs belong to you
you're just not listening to them. :)
... ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29
done :)
and remove the ifconfig_em0 nesta: <3 Randal RandalSchwartz: I *think* it's /29
no maybe /30
no /29 nesta: it ity is 29is
it is RandalSchwartz: there ya go then norf: i see on the site, must admit, this is the first freebsd vps ive used...i usually go for dedis and use rc.conf to bring up ip addresses
can i do that still with this vps?
ive normally used freebsd jails and dedicated machines ...my first vps here.. RandalSchwartz: norf - you can do what I just said norf: so i cant bring the ips up with rc.conf ? RandalSchwartz: uh ... you can
geez -: RandalSchwartz gives up RandalSchwartz: ... ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29
in place of ifconfig_em0
seriously norf: sorry! ive started drinking. RandalSchwartz: if you're gonna ask questions, pay attention nesta: then you can run 'sh /etc/netstart' afterwards, norf norf: so just add ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29 to rc.conf
? nesta: read above RandalSchwartz: and delete the ifconfig_em0 -: RandalSchwartz repeats for the third time nesta: gota love the freebsd babyyyy
:)))
hehe RandalSchwartz: yeah - I really like that shorthand in teh rc.onf
rc.conf even nesta: indeed it a goodie
*s norf: ifconfig_em0="inet 174.136.101.34 netmask 255.255.255.248"
de;ete that nesta: yes norf: and add ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29 nesta: one should always make backups of any configuration file first, of course. norf: and reboot or run sh /etc/netstart nesta: correct norf: k
thanks friend. RandalSchwartz: yes norf. delete ifconfig=em0, and add the ipv4_addrs_em0 norf: defaultrouter="174.136.101.33"
hostname="sindustries.cust.arpnetworks.com"
#ifconfig_em0="inet 174.136.101.34 netmask 255.255.255.248"

like such? nesta: one does wonder at times.
:-X -: nesta waddles off norf: well, thats correct no? -: norf reboots RandalSchwartz: I set my address to ...::0 :)
host red.stonehenge.com :)
makes for a shorter URL -: norf waits a min for the vps to come back up up_the_irons: I find a lot of providers do things the "wrong" way, so when someone comes to me and is like, "but I've been here, here, and here, and they do it like this", I don't have much to say ;) nesta: ^5 up_the_irons: I've always assigned only 1 IP. the others are for you to decide how you want them RandalSchwartz: yeah, you may want to put them on a second virtual interface or something up_the_irons: someone once expected me to list every IPv6 address they had ;) RandalSchwartz: heh
"here, let me fax it to you" :) up_the_irons: i told them "you'd run out of kernel memory" ;)
RandalSchwartz: LOL norf: ok
works.

i just put UNR on my kids eeepc this morning...
i hate ubuntu...but fuck it...its easy...and its for my kid...i dont have to use it...
my freebsd nfs server/media center box got dismantled due to bad wiring taking out my wifes powersupplies...
so i need to replace that up_the_irons: I installed Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Edition on a new MSI Wind L1350 I got. Everything worked out of the box, _everything_. For a desktop OS, Ubuntu wins. norf: i would rather have debian squeeze on it.
but as i said
its my kids...i dont have to use it.
i dont like the cluttered UNR desktop.
but imust say..that UNR desktop ////fat gnome with crap added...makes the eeepc much easier to use than the stock win 7 starter that comes with it...
win 7 is not suited to a netbook...at all...
not sure win 7 is suited to anything...ive never had to use it outside of replacing it with linux on my eeepc... up_the_irons: yeah, i couldn't get win 7 to work at all.
win 7 lived for 5 minutes on my MSI, before getting erased by Ubuntu norf: it really runs like crap on the eeepc 1005hab ...
i used it to upgrade the bios...then i put UNR on it.
its slow
i think im going to strip UNR down ...
on my kids eeepc ...and go with openbox+lxpanel...or tint2 panel...like i use on my desktop.
i love openbox.
kde4 is just blasphemy.
gnome is getting just ignorantly fat...like kde4..
but still faster..
gtk2 = faster than qt
:/
xfce4 is not as light as it used to be either
lxde is basically openbox with a few other apps
but its better than the above mentioned...
me...i just use openbox and all gtk2 apps...
i feel dirty if i mix qt crap into my system...
sorry, rambling.
but still... kde3.5.x is still ftw over kde4. ***: sentabi has quit IRC (Quit: nx)
