RandalSchwartzRandalSchwartz guesses byk3r1d3r was about 14 when he picked his nick
might still be 14. :)
[11:12]
b1k3ryd3r:) [11:14]
antant was also about 14 when he picked his nick... [11:14]
b1k3ryd3rI change my nick a lot
no biggie to me

***jlgaddis-sjc has joined #arpnetworks [11:15]
jlgaddis-sjcanybody around care to confirm that vnc'ing to their console works fine? [11:16]
RandalSchwartzin general?
or recently?
[11:16]
jlgaddis-sjcwithin the last 2-3 days, i guess
upgraded kernel and rebooted a few days ago, just tried to hit the console and just get a blank screen
worked fine before upgrade/reboot, but hadn't tried it afterwards until now
[11:16]
RandalSchwartzodd. [11:17]
jlgaddis-sjci'm sure it's just my vps, but want to confirm... not sure what would cause it to b0rk. [11:17]
RandalSchwartzI *have* noticed a need to stop/start the ssh tunnel after a reboot though
for some reason
didn't used to need that
back a year ago. :)
[11:17]
jlgaddis-sjci've tried over ssh and not, same thing either way [11:18]
RandalSchwartzI don't background my tunnel
ssh -vN
not -f something :)
[11:18]
jlgaddis-sjcwell the connection gets established, the console is usually blanked, just hit enter to get the screen to appear, but that's not working now [11:19]
RandalSchwartzweird [11:19]
jlgaddis-sjcand i'm in san jose and can't ssh in from $home [11:19]
RandalSchwartzI have no idea what that last statement means
I hope I wasn't expected to understand it
[11:20]
jlgaddis-sjci have ssh filtered except from a few ip addresses
none of those boxes are within ~2500 miles of me right now =)
[11:20]
RandalSchwartzhow would that affect your console?
your filtering is within your VM, right?
or did you set up something special with ARP?
[11:21]
jlgaddis-sjcit wouldn't, but i have no other way to get into the vps
iptables in the vps
[11:21]
RandalSchwartzright... so you should still be able to ssh-tunnel the vnc [11:21]
jlgaddis-sjcright
with a b0rked console, though, i can't get in at all
[11:22]
RandalSchwartzhave you tried a reboot?
and watch it during reboot?
the low-level stuff should at least scribble on the console
before your OS takes over
the "press F12 to select boot device" stuff
[11:22]
jlgaddis-sjcno, i try not to use rebooting as a troubleshooting technique =) [11:27]
RandalSchwartzdepends on what you need, I guess
if the box is up and running, no biggy
if it's broken, needs fixing. :)
as for sshd, I moved it from 22 to 443, and never ever see ssh probes
no need for ip range reduction
[11:30]
***Tadaka has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [11:32]
jlgaddis-sjcyeah, i use alternate port numbers or two-factor security at times
all my sites are working so it's not a huge issue, just wanted to ssh in and check something
[11:36]
RandalSchwartzcan you tunnel through home? :)
I have "back to my mac" for that, for example.
[11:43]
***heavysixer has quit IRC (Quit: BAMPF!) [11:51]
jlgaddis-sjci could, if the machines weren't powered down at the moment [11:58]

ifthenjlgaddis FWIW I was just now able to connect to a login screen for my vps using unencrypted "Chicken" program, a derivitive of ChickenoftheVNC. I was never able to get an SSH tunnel up and running.
Good Luck. Maybe there is a daemon to turn on your Mac :)
[14:33]
b1k3ryd3rI advise always always tunneling vnc through ssh
-always
[14:35]
toddfI presume you put your ssh public key into the control panel ... [14:35]
b1k3ryd3ryep [14:36]
toddfand asked support@ for help wrt why it is not working? [14:36]
b1k3ryd3roh sorry I have no problem with anything [14:36]
ifthenb1k is your home machine a unix flavor? [14:37]
b1k3ryd3ryep, I use OSX [14:37]
ifthenoh
which number?
or cat?
[14:38]
b1k3ryd3r10.6.8 Snow Leopard [14:38]
ifthenhm
I noticed on my 10.5.8 there was not ssh_config or sshd_config in the ssh dir. Do you have one?
or do you just use the system one?
[14:39]
b1k3ryd3rifthen: on my OSX, both the sshd_config and ssh_config are located in /etc/
there is no ssh/ sub dir
oddly enough
[14:41]
RandalSchwartzI see /etc/sshd_config [14:42]
b1k3ryd3rnever noticed until now :) [14:42]
RandalSchwartzon my snow leopard machine [14:42]
ifthenwell that's the system standard one i think [14:42]
b1k3ryd3ryeh thats strange eh RandalSchwartz [14:42]
RandalSchwartzyeah - that's what I'm thining [14:42]
b1k3ryd3rI dunno, maybe not [14:42]
RandalSchwartzinstaller's choice. :) [14:42]
b1k3ryd3ron FreeBSD it has a ssh sub dir
yah, suppose so
[14:42]
ifthenwell i just put one in and it didn't help or hurt
i still get timed out
Randall I checked your suggestions but no dice yet
btw i have used tcsh for many years as user only but just took the vnc csh out of the box for a try.
going to set up a user with tch
tcsh

ifthenb1k*, Randal, myself on OSX 10.6.8; it seems to me that a vps on FreeBSD which has its ssh_config and sshd_config in an ssh directory would be confused by these file being in /etc [no ssh directory]. I am thinking of copying those files to a /user/ssh/ directory. I have already put a few variable instantiation commands in one and it hasn't wrecked anything. I just wonder how a non-apple OS can find ssh_config and sshd_config. [18:32]
b1k3ryd3rin my personal opinion you are completely barking up the wrong tree, ifthen [18:34]
ifthenthanks b1* I am getting desperate and willing to try anything.
I am sick of being timed out.
[18:35]
b1k3ryd3rI imagine so :( [18:35]
ifthenWhere is that fruitful tree? [18:38]
b1k3ryd3rhehe
if it consoles you at all, ifthen, I time out constantly
if you could see my auth.log it would look like I have an obssession with constantly ssh'ing to my vps
[18:39]
ifthenWell I am spoiled by my shell provider in Hollywood who never times me out.
And now my own shell kicks me out...
my shell is FreeBSD
[18:41]
b1k3ryd3rsame here [18:42]
ifthenSomething is the matter [18:42]
b1k3ryd3rindeeed [18:44]
ifthenI guess it means more time with google. The only solution I saw to this problem was a case where there was a bad setting in Putty that was the problem. [18:46]
b1k3ryd3rdo you use putty? [18:46]
ifthenno I have sworn off microsoft [18:46]
b1k3ryd3rah goods
good
I thought you were using putty on OSX
lol
[18:47]
ifthenheh i used to use it with ms [18:47]
b1k3ryd3ryah
same
then I got on my first *nix shell and was hooked
>_<
[18:47]
ifthenI think macbooks and a VPS would be a great combination if I could make it happen.
maybe i need a pc-bsd book
[18:48]
b1k3ryd3rugh no
haha
FreeBSD make a grreat desktop
[18:49]
ifthendo you know about PC-BSD the new os?
you get a choice of all the unix desktops
[18:50]
b1k3ryd3ryah I know it
I used it many moons ago
[18:51]
ifthenWell it seems to me the macbook display is good enough
But I keep thinking maybe Apple doesn't want to play with FreeBSD
In which case I'm done with Apple.
I don't know if I'm paranoid or ignorant right now.
[18:52]
b1k3ryd3rabout? [18:56]
ifthenAbout apple and bsd [18:56]
b1k3ryd3rah [18:58]
ifthennice chatting b1*
gotta go now
[19:03]
