pc500 has joined #arpnetworks [15:35]
pc500How do I "nuke" my VPS and restore it to factory defaults?
IE: fresh OS load.
[15:35]
RandalSchwartzpc500 - you can send in a request to support@
or you can do it yourself
if you know how to boot your CDROM
[15:36]
pc500can you upload an ISO?
or similar (IE: vmware style)?
[15:36]
RandalSchwartzyou have an ISO already installed
when you provisioned your box
if you want a different one, email the URL for the ISO to support@
in other words, I asked for FreeBSD 8.1 installed
so I got that, and the ISO for 8.1 is also already in the CD tray
[15:36]
pc500It just arrived as ubuntu.. .but since the version offered is old, if I can do install going diretly to 10.10 is easier than apt-get dist-upgade twice [15:37]
RandalSchwartzsure. you can put in a request to put the 10.10 ubuntu ISO in the tray [15:37]
pc500ok I will ask. I didn't know you could mount an ISO, etc, and install yourself. [15:37]
RandalSchwartzyou can't mount an ISO by yourself
you have to ask
[15:37]
pc500or hell, if they have a 10.10 image I'd take it (save me som ehassle)
ok.
[15:38]
RandalSchwartzbut your existing OS ISO is already there [15:38]
pc500ok, it's probably 9.4 or something. [15:38]
RandalSchwartzpart of the base service
support should know where 10.10 ISO is, but if you provide a URL, you make sure. :)
particularly if you want a variant for some reason
[15:38]
pc500they almost certainly already have it [15:38]
RandalSchwartzjust be sure it works with x64. :) [15:38]
pc500ok, x64 only
good to know
[15:39]
RandalSchwartzI mean amd64
that's what my machine looks like anyway
I think you can request a 32-bit, but why. :)
[15:39]
pc500thank you
meh, does it really matter with 1gb ram or whatever?
[15:39]
RandalSchwartztrue [15:39]

jpalmerpc500: the support request needs to include the VPS UUID (found in the customer portal) and a link to the ISO in wget format. [16:09]

jlgaddisanyhow, larry created perl (using unix and c, of course), and god saw that it was good
so he made randal
(might have misquoted that, it's been years since i've read it)

up_the_ironswickedSA: LOL
jpalmer: btw, i have the rfc 2317 validation code done; i just need to write another couple tests. then it will be deployed (say, in an hour?)
jpalmer: and notice, while it has only been 4 days, there have been no reverse dns delegation requests since the self-service code has been deployed :)
[19:38]
RandalSchwartzthat was a long time ago
and officially, "it never happened"
[19:49]
jpalmerup_the_irons: very awesometacular.
up_the_irons: and yeah, I noticed the lack of DNS tickets. almost brings a tear to my eye :P
[19:51]
RandalSchwartzjlgaddis - that was for you [19:51]
up_the_ironsjpalmer: LOL
jpalmer: every time ticket volume goes down significantly due to a new feature, i get very jazzed ;)
[19:51]
jpalmerI know the feeling! [19:53]
up_the_ironsNext up: self-service ISO changes from a pre-defined list
man, after that's done, i'm not going to know what to do with myself!
[19:54]
RandalSchwartzself-service ISO changes from a URL
implement the cloudfront API :)
[19:55]
jpalmerheh, after that, you'll be busy loading up a ton of the commonly requested ISO's [19:57]
up_the_ironsLOL
just got a Cisco 2950-EI 48 port 10/100 switch for $125. Man, those things have sure tanked in price.
I use to pay > $1K for them!
[19:59]
jpalmerheh [20:00]
up_the_ironssure which I could get an all gigabit cisco switch for less than $1K :( [20:00]
jpalmerme too.
you can get their SMB line for under $1k, but it's just linksys. with the cisco badge. and so far, I haven't been impressed witht he gear.
[20:00]
RandalSchwartzThe Squeak people have been scrambling to get the Squeak VM working on FreeBSD so that I can move squeak.org to ARP.
I'm trying to get traffic levels now from the existing guys
but it's interesting that everyone has been rallying around me getting it to work better. :)
that also means I can go ahead and implement insightcruises.com next booking engine with Squeak and Seaside
the FreeBSD failure was getting in my way
[20:01]
jlgaddisRandalSchwartz: *nod* for some reason it popped into my head, probably been 10 or 15 years since i read that history of unix thing
up_the_irons: if i wanted to run rhel6, do i just need to upload the iso somewhere or ... ?
[20:05]
RandalSchwartzyou need to pay a therapist :) [20:06]
up_the_ironsjlgaddis: no, give us a wget'able URL from their download site [20:07]
RandalSchwartzup_the_irons - https://twitter.com/billrobertson42/status/50030943376908288
in response to me tweeting arpnetworks.vps :)
oops.
[20:07]
jlgaddisup_the_irons: the iso's are behind a paywall, i believe [20:07]
RandalSchwartzarpnetworks.com/vps [20:08]
jlgaddisRandalSchwartz: that's beside the point =) [20:08]
RandalSchwartzit's good to have 7500 twitter followers :) [20:08]
jlgaddisjlgaddis replaces RandalSchwartz with a mercurial repo [20:09]
up_the_ironsRandalSchwartz: wow
up_the_irons braces for the onslaught
;)
RandalSchwartz: so is squeak.org the main site for the Squeak language?
[20:09]
RandalSchwartzwell - if squeak.org moves, you'll surely get a link on the front page
yeah
two squeak images... one running squeak.org (aida), and one running source.squeak.org (seaside)
but both in the same VM
[20:09]
up_the_ironsRandalSchwartz: roger
RandalSchwartz: tell them i give discounts for bonafide open source projects like that
[20:10]
RandalSchwartzI've already been hinting such [20:10]
up_the_ironssweet [20:10]
RandalSchwartzbut they were already impressed by your retail prices [20:10]
jlgaddisopen source discounts? =) [20:11]
RandalSchwartzI think the problem will be that we'll need a gig or more of ram, and possibly some large bandwidth, but not huge.
so the $20/month deal is too small
I think we're paying $50/month now
for a linux box with a single spindle. :(
and no console access
and no v6
so if you can spec a sweet box for $50/month, you'll get the gig
this is not an official solicitation. just a SWAG
I have to be careful because I'm wearing multiple hats here :)
[20:11]
jlgaddisi'm going to report all of you to rms
jlgaddis calls him
[20:14]
RandalSchwartzgo ahead.
I've danced with his girlfriend. :)
[20:14]
Gjlgaddis: you can get round the paywall ;) [20:14]
jpalmerooh, I'm telling him! [20:14]

jpalmerG / jlgaddis it's pobably better to download it, and host it on an ftp or http server temporarily. [20:15]
jlgaddisyeah, that's what i was thinking [20:15]
Gyep, was just going to say that [20:16]
jlgaddisi have them on my laptop
just gonna take a minute to upload them somewhere with my 512 kbps upstream
[20:16]
jpalmerhehe [20:16]
Gjlgaddis: ouch that's going to take ages [20:16]
jlgaddisi'll probably do it at $work =) [20:16]
jpalmeryou could download it on your vps, then have Garry wget it over his local network. [20:16]
Gjlgaddis: yeah, per jpalmer, wget it to your VPS, then ask up_the_irons via support@ to grab it from your VPS [20:17]
jlgaddisjlgaddis nods [20:18]
