Any known issues right now? SMTP is timing out, SSH is denying me and console isn't working?
I have no connection issues with my VPS
Mine also appears to be working fine
I can't get shell access to mine :|
I'll send a support ticket -- thanks guys
Is this a potential outcome of running out of space or memory? I haven't checked the usage in a couple months because it's quite beefy for what I use it for (a mail server for 6 users)
Other than that, can't imagine what's awry
ahstanford: If you can't pull up console (assuming you mean you can't connect to the out-of-band console), then it's more likely a connectivity issue. Otherwise, sure, an out-of-memory condition could cause problems.
Easy way to test - do a hard-reboot from portal.arpnetworks.com
Yeah, console gave me: Enter alexanderstanford@kvr25's password:
[`full-ambit-media' -- console is down]
From the ARP portal
Ah
Sounds like your VPS isn't running
(may have crashed)
Alright. Sadface. I guess that's what I get for not paying it much attention the past couple months
It
It's not coming up via reboot
I guess I'm out of options from my end
Anything on the VNC console?
double checking...
It's saying login incorrect
Maybe I'm using the wrong root pw?
VNC uses the password that's given on the portal. page
And be sure to hit the right port ;P
I'm in VNC, but I need to log in to the VPS
Ah
SSH public key authentication is required to access this server.
would that be my issue?
ahstanford: that only applies to console.cust.arpnetworks.com
Once you're VNC'd in, you're looking directly at your VPS. Any issues therein are yours.
Got it, thanks
Got in with my SSH key. Apparently I disabled password auth and forgot. *blush
ahstanford: welcome to the wonderful world of serial + video remote access where you too can be your own remote hands at fixing your own problem at arpnetworks ;-)
Right before console.cust asks for the password, there is a message:
"If you see the message "console is down", press `^Eco' (CTRL-E followed by 'c' then 'o') to "open" the tty"
ahstanford: FYI ^^
ah, thanks
anyone ever used Spree for an online store?
no, but I can recommend Shopify should you need something robust. Its a bit overkill in most cases though.
ah, host-yourself. sorry, n/m then
yeah
just open a tor bridge and route bitcoind to .onion space and accept bitcoins, then you can really shine given there is practically zero tolerance for abusers, so why do you need to know who we are? *grin*
the truth is out there!
offer ovpn over onioncat for ipmi access.. and an onioncat address for the misc kvr systems (or a single one that maps ports to various kvr systems) .. that could get fun ;-)
Wait, how did we get from online store to secure IPMI access?
brycec: lol
that's what I was thinking
sorry I thought a lot and spoke intermittent results
up_the_irons is talking about hosting his own store (if I follow properly)
from his own store he wants to process cc #'s or use a 3rd party like paypal to do it
from paypal, some people have started taking bitcoins
and if one is doing bitcoins with maximum privacy its over tor
I followed that far
and if one sets up tor then you can setup onioncat and get a single IPv6 IP that talks to other IPv6 addresses over a single /48 on a tun(4) interface
and once you do that .. one might as well have anonymous access to manage kvm's at arpnetworks
the ovpn access to ipmi is already in place for arp metal incase you didn't already know
ovpn access to ipmi over onioncat `makes sense in theory' since its just another address to listen to ;-)
one can run tor w/out being an exit node
and still use onioncat and such
just randomly thinking
outloud of course
of course if one were permitting anonymous access via onioncat its not quite so anonymous in that one could literally provide the address of their local onioncat address to a list of permitted ips to hit ipmi and such from in the event abuse was a concern
I want toddf's brain
I'll take his kidneys... they are probably worth something to someone :)
I'm sure they are worth a lot to toddf actually. sell them back to him! over a tor onion, paypal, ipv6 store!
I think paypal in that equation negates onion/tor...
I am stumped by the output to this command (CentOS 5): ls -lh | grep httpd
?---------   ? ?    ?        ?            ? httpd
never seen those kind of owner, group and permissions before
it means you dont have permission to read the permissions
_mnathani_: ^
wow i've never seen that eiter
My Google foo leads me to believe some kind of file system corruption
that was my initial impression as well
when Linux bombs at reading my SD card (and I need to remount it), it'll have question marks everywhere
"I got write speed at 415MB/s"
on a solid state?
Customer reporting their SSD speed in their new ARP Metal box
yup
man i think i'll order a couple for myself ;)
That's the OCZ Agility 3
:P I told you they're fast
consumer grade or enterprise grade?
that's a consumer-grade
but they're solid
_mnathani_: I've seen that before with corruption and/or rootkits.
brb
brycec: :)
_mnathani_: those are consumer, yeah
up_the_irons: did the drives arrive?
jbergstroem: yeah, i was just about to reply to your ticket.  i had the drives, but not the 2.5 -> 3.5 enclosures.  I got those today and i'm heading to the DC to ready up your server (as soon as I clear my tickets)
What do you guys think of Flickr's new makeover?
up_the_irons: great, thanks.
np
sup!
up_the_irons: if you could attach the latest sysrescuecd (3.6.0), that would be great as well
awyeah: yo
jbergstroem: systemrescuecd-x86-3.6.0.iso is in the ISO library
jbergstroem: you'll be able to mount it yourself, but i can also do it as part of the setup
up_the_irons: oh, didn't know i actually could choose myself, just choose from
up_the_irons: never mind then
We can mount ISOs ourselves on VPSs?
jbergstroem: :)
awyeah: no, this is for a dedicated server
Yay, I walked into the middle of a conversation and had no context!
Time for bed.
Too bad there aren't any IRC logs... Oh wait, there are! :p
Hien: yeah, that's why I got an NTT link, good connections in the APNIC region
Hien: AS 7643 doesn't have a peeringdb page, odd
Hien: yeah, my network to 123.30.128.162 goes straight over NTT
up_the_irons: Singtel is better than NTT from my side :)
Hien: yeah i peer with Singtel too
I'm confused... Am I missing part of this conversation?
nvm
brycec: part of it was private until i we "went live" ;)
heh
up_the_irons: But i saw NTT always take over Singtel.
up_the_irons: do you support route my /29 via Singtel only ? :)
Hien: this is where it gets tricky; if there is the same number of AS hops, then it is hard to determine which is picked.
Hien: nobody supports sending smaller blocks than /24 these days
up_the_irons: oh :)
up_the_irons: i just recieved email from my ISP said they are fixing problem with SMW3 cable  and maybe affected Singtel connection.
this maybe reason go via NTT
i remember last week, i always via Singtel :)
anyway thank you so much up_the_irons  :)
ah yes, it could be the busted cable then
Hien: no problem :)
i  go out for a moment :) brb. good day everyone
Hien: seamewe3 broke again?
it's not uncommon to see people setting local preference to prefer any2ix over transit
well peering over transit in general
not always a good thing, but cheaper
yeah, generally networks trust peers over transit (cheaper, like mercutio said)
but if i use ipv6 it works around it
actually it looks like the ipv6 is going over any2ix too
2001:504:13::24
not sure who that is yet
CoreSite
i think it's telstraclear
NetName:        CORESITE---ANY2---IPV6
yeah it's any2ix
so that doesn't say provider
but there's one hop that says telstraclear
the rest of the hops have no reverse lookup :/
cust-ge-0-1-0-969.xcore2.telstraclear.net
mercutio: my ISP, told they're fixing SMW3 (s2.1) cable from May 5 to May 26 :)
it only just god fixed between perth/singapore
tok months
and it looks like it's still fine
mercutio: i got lost connection any route via Singtel on May 6 about 1 hour . Can not connect Yahoo/FB...etc
this week it seems back to stable. But few routes still via NTT
hien: from what country?
it's prob a diff leg
mercutio: i'm from viet nam.
jbergstroem: read this: http://support.arpnetworks.com/kb/dedicated-servers/customer-vpn
jbergstroem: you'll need to be on the VPN to access the server's console

whoops, ignore that, dunno why irssi didn't prompt
accidental paste lol
up_the_irons: roger that
there's 5 cables in vietnam hien
well 5 submarine
so they should have had redundancy imo
hazardous: gl hf with the job interview! \o/
ahhaha
jbergstroem: why would you think that
hazardous: this: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/02/fizzbuzz-the-programmers-stairway-to-heaven.html
or rather, this: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/02/why-cant-programmers-program.html
oh i'm not a programmer :V
but nah not an interview
