whitefanghmmmm
so I had Garry setup reverse dns for my domain, pointed my nameservers to ns1/ns2.arpnetworks.com but its not resolving :/
I'm not sure what I've done wrong, should I be pointing my NS entries somewhere else?
hmmm, it looks like reverse is working but standard is not

[10:09]
whitefangyeah that's what I was thinking
but godaddy, in their infinite wisdom, doesn
doesn't list their nameservers
on their site
[10:11]
toddfif you use them for dns they `take care of it'
if you use yourself for dns, you `take care of it'
[10:12]
whitefangwell I'm going to have to use godaddy for my dns
I suspect their server is cns1/2/3.secureserver.net
[10:12]
toddfbecause you can't setup your own or ?
use their form, it's simple, if you can't do it yourself
[10:12]
whitefangI'd rather not have to run my own nameserver
I can do it myself with their stupid tools, the problem is they don't list what their nameservers are.

dxtrwhitefang: I regged a domain at godaddy, realized they suck and moved the domain ASAP :P [11:33]
whitefangyeah
I'm going to be moving it
[11:34]
dxtrNow I'v got namecheap after some tips from slashdot [11:34]
whitefangthey don't like me add a wildcard CNAME [11:34]
dxtrBut they suck too
So I'm gonna move my domains from that crap place when I feel like it :P
[11:34]
whitefangI just heard some good things about opensvs
err
[11:34]
dxtropensvc? [11:35]

Doesn't support ipv6 and stuff :/

***schmir has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [12:00]
wwi used to have styx.org at netsol, with ipv6 glue...
transferred out because they're generally evil...
lost ipv6 glue :(
(did't lose it immediately, but i was unable to change it in the gtld)
[12:12]
whitefangwhat do you mean by ipv6 glue? [12:16]
***cubelogic has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [12:23]
jpalmerwhitefang: "glue" (as it relates to DNS) means that the gTLD servers have IN NS records for a nameserver that is within the same domain as the record it's pointing to. it eliminates a circular dependency. [12:28]
whitefangah ok. [12:29]
jpalmerfor instance.. if I own example.com, and want to use ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com to answer queries for example.com...
with glue, the gTLD servers would say.. "ns1 and ns2.exmaple.com are responsbile for answering these queries.. you can find them at 1.2.3.4 and 2.3.4.5"
[12:29]
***amdprophet has quit IRC (Quit: amdprophet) [12:34]
whitefanghmmm
I suspect my system is only using 1 cpu core
hw.ncpu: 1
[12:41]
dxtrwhitefang: I'd assume that's intended [12:42]
whitefangah ok
dedicated CPU resources
any way to check how much cpu speed I have dedicated?
ionise{43}% sysctl -a | egrep -i 'hw.machine|hw.model|hw.ncpu' [~]
hw.machine: amd64
hw.model: QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.9.1
hw.ncpu: 1
hw.machine_arch: amd64
ionise{44}% dmesg | grep -i cpu [~]
CPU: QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.9.1 (2666.65-MHz K8-class CPU)
cpu0: <ACPI CPU> on acpi0
sorry for spam
that RPROMPT really makes it worse huh
so does that mean I have 2.7GHz allocated to just me?
[12:43]
finkwhitefang: i'll share some if it w/you, if you don't want all of it [12:49]
whitefangnoooooooooo
its all mine?!
I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean that's dedicated to my VPS though
but I would like to know how much is
[12:50]
jdoemost providers don't disclose how many vpses there are per machine, beyond "not overloaded"
dunno if (but don't think) arp is any different.
[12:57]
whitefangDedicated resources
* RAM is not over subscribed
* Dedicated CPU resources
[12:57]
jdoeI suspect dedicated in that context means that your vm won't be starved. [12:58]
dxtrHow do you dedicate a specific amount of CPU to a VM?
Seriously
[12:59]
bob___it can be done [12:59]
dxtrCan the program even control how many hertz it will allocate for this task? [12:59]
bob___you could budget a specific number of cycles/second
(to the VM, that is)

up_the_ironswhitefang: reverse dns does not require pointing name servers to ns1/ns2.arpnetworks.com [14:17]
whitefangyeah, I got it all working now, thanks. [14:17]
up_the_ironswhitefang: reverse dns does not require anything special on your part [14:17]
whitefangwell, it did in a way, because I was previously using rootbsds nameservers
so I had to switch to godaddys

whitefangI'm using arpnetworks ns server in my resolv.conf and host ionise.org isn't resolving
is it just a matter of propagtion?
[15:54]
jpalmerwhitefang: propogation should be instant. how are you trying to resolve it? [15:56]
whitefangwith host
host ionise.org [/usr/ports]
Host ionise.org not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
host ionise.org 8.8.8.8 works though
[15:56]
jpalmerare you trying to confirm an A, AAAA, PTR or othr record? [15:58]
***nakano_ is now known as nakano [15:58]
jpalmerand which arpnetworks server are you using in your resolv.conf? ns1.arpnetworks.com and ns2.arpnetworks.com aren't configured to answer recursive queries. they are authoratative only
whitefang: ?
[16:02]
.... (idle for 19mn)
whitefang: I guess you went afk. FWIW I've verified that the host command returns the expected results on all servers I've tested against. at a guess, I would say your /etc/resolv.conf is using a non-recursive nameserver, and shouldn't be. [16:25]
.... (idle for 18mn)
whitefangthe nameserver I'm using is ns1/n2.arpnetworks.com [16:43]
jpalmerok, thats your problem.
those NS's are not set up for you to use them. they are authoratative only.
[16:44]
***schmir has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) [16:45]
jpalmerhttp://support.arpnetworks.com/faqs/main/dns-servers [16:45]
whitefangoh
I guess I don't understand why those dns servers would work to resolve google.com but not ionise.org
[16:45]
jpalmerchances are, it was already cached on those NS's. [16:47]
whitefangso will those nameservers not eventually cache ionise.org? [16:48]
jpalmerI think you're confusing a couple different things.
ns1 and ns2.arpnetworks.com will not resolve queries for clients that aren't specifically authorized to use them.
you need to use the NS's that *are* configured to resolve queries. They are listed in the FAQ link I showed you.
[16:49]
whitefang208.79.88.7
208.79.88.9
those are ns1/ns2
[16:50]
jpalmeras for ns1 and ns2 eventually caching your domain, it doesn't matter if it does or not. no other clients are going to be using them to resolve your domain. [16:50]
whitefangso I am using the dns servers from those faqs
208.79.88.7 = ns1, 208.79.88.9 = ns2
[16:51]
jpalmerwhitefang: are you doing the host command from your VPS, or your loal machine? [16:53]
whitefangfrom my vps [16:53]
jpalmerwhat happens when you use dig +trace, instead of host? [16:56]
whitefangtoo much to paste ^_^ [16:57]
jpalmerright, read the output, and sum it up ;)
or, pastebin it
[16:57]
whitefanghttp://codepad.org/6zjKYOu8 [16:58]
jpalmerthat looks like I would expect. [16:59]
whitefangits weird that host is giving me a 2(SERVFAIL) [17:02]
jpalmerit didn't when you did a +trace. [17:04]
whitefangthat was a dig [17:04]
jpalmer.. I'm aware. [17:04]
whitefangwell yeah, it didn't for the trace. [17:05]
jpalmerwhen you traced it, everything returned successfully. [17:05]
whitefangyeah [17:05]
jpalmerI don't use the 'host' command, I use dig for everything DNS related. I'd find out what queries the host command is making, and duplicate those in dig +trace [17:07]
whitefanghost by default looks for A, AAAA, and MX [17:09]
jpalmerwell, duplicating that with dig, ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available [17:12]
whitefangI'm not getting that warning
how did you get that warning?
[17:15]
jpalmerI used dig.
dig AAAA ionise.org @ns1.arpnetworks.com
[17:15]
whitefangI don't get that error
or warning rather
[17:16]
jpalmertry your host command again. I just flushed the cache on ns1 [17:17]
whitefangahah!
thanks!
[17:17]
jpalmerit worked? [17:18]
whitefangyes! [17:18]
jpalmerinteresting. it must have cached an NXDOMAIN result or something.
FWIW I don't have access to ns2. so, I can't clear it's cache.
[17:19]
whitefangns1 is ahead of ns2 in my resolv.conf :)
will ns2 flush its cache automatically at some point?
[17:20]
jpalmeryes [17:20]
whitefangthat's all good then [17:20]
jpalmercan you do me a favor? submit a ticket regarding this. I'll document and close it. I don't want up_the_irons thinking I was just randomly clearing caches and messing with ns1 ;) [17:21]
whitefangsure [17:22]
jpalmerthanks. [17:22]
whitefangas long as I can include in my ticket "I asked jpalmer to randomly clear the cache on ns1 because I was bored and he was more than happy to oblige." [17:23]
jpalmerthat works too :P
jpalmer gets back to his super-awesome adduser script.
[17:23]
whitefangticket done [17:24]
jpalmerby super-awesome, I mean.. 2 for loops, and a couple mkdir's and wgets.
thanks
[17:24]
whitefangI'm upset that I had to answer a skilltesting question
you're welcome, I didn't really say much in it but yeah
I have to submit tickets all day at work so I'm kinda ticketed out :P
thanks a lot for your help, I was starting to think I was nuts or something.
[17:25]
jpalmeras long as I can point at it and say "thats why, stop beating me!" it's good ;) [17:26]
whitefangso is it mostly just the two of you doing support tickets? [17:29]
jpalmerI currently only do DNS requests. Garry does everything else.
so you were just lucky that you had the one problem I could actually help with.
[17:29]
whitefanghaha
jpalmer: s/it's/its ;)
oh I'm a douchebag.
man, the latency to this vps is great
its almost like an ssh session to something on my lan
[17:31]
jpalmerbe nice with the grammar nazi thing, or I'll put the old cache back :P
lol
[17:35]
whitefanghaha
its bad, because my grammar and spelling is terrible
[17:37]
finkwhitefang: it's [17:37]
whitefangbut I can't help point out things like its and it's and your and you're cause I'm a douche :P

RandalSchwartzyou need bicycle chains then [19:46]
DDevineThey already have a chain on them why do I need two? [19:49]
RandalSchwartzyou can steal a bike if it has an odd number of chains. :)
if you have 0 or 2, no problem.
[19:50]
finkis this a comp sci joke coming up? [19:50]
RandalSchwartzis it?
RandalSchwartz was never a comp sci
[19:50]
finkok, i don't get it [19:51]
RandalSchwartzyou can steal a bike with 1 chain ( DDevine's observation)
but not with 2 (adding a chain to tie it to the wall)
or with 0 (removing the drive chain)
by extrapolation, all odd number of chains are dangerous :)
