[00:07] *** qbit has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [00:11] *** m0unds_ has joined #arpnetworks [00:59] whats a quick way to list domains using a specific DNS Server [02:49] mnathani: you can pay some company like http://reversens.domaintools.com/ (i don't want to endorse them in any way, just an example). or maybe you can get an account for https://www.dnsdb.info/ (dunno what reason they require for giving you access) [06:18] *** qbit has joined #arpnetworks [06:25] *** qbit has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [06:25] *** qbit has joined #arpnetworks [09:07] mnathani: If the server supports AXFR and doesn't deny you (which they really, really should), you could probably pull its . zone [12:21] *** mus1cb0x has joined #arpnetworks [12:21] i'm in the customer portal, on a VPS machine page. i select an iso for the cdrom, click change ISO, but the drop down remains blank [12:21] is that how it should be operating? [12:27] ah yea it's working. the iso is loaded the drop down just doesn't reflect that [12:53] up_the_irons: ^ bug report? [12:53] it loads the ISO, but it doesn't save what your current ISO is [12:58] up_the_irons: Just a thought... maybe "Load ISO" would be clearer than "Change ISO." The latter, I think, carries the connotation that the ISO is currently ___ and will become ___, wherease "load" is a one-time action. [12:58] Still not "perfect." I expect users to make the same mistake again. But maybe hopefully fewer... [12:59] tnx [12:59] that's a good idea [13:02] i've made it on the last 2 VPSs i set up [13:02] they were just far enough apart in time that i forgot initially, then remembered and checked [13:04] up_the_irons: Do you ever clear out old ISOs? eg There's no reason to have pfSense-2.1 ISOs when 2.1.2 is out, not to mention more ancient ISOs like debian-502 :p Or is space cheap enough that there's no reason to risk upsetting anyone wanting (for whatever odd reason) an old, unsupported ISO/version? [13:05] some people have asked for older versions [13:23] i like the archive/library aspect of the iso list. i can see that being useful for testing [13:24] (for suckers that have to support legacy) [13:54] yep [15:37] *** pjs has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [15:37] *** twobithacker has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 258 seconds) [15:37] *** meingtsla has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 258 seconds) [15:37] *** pjs has joined #arpnetworks [15:37] *** twobitha- has joined #arpnetworks [15:37] *** meingtsil has joined #arpnetworks [15:37] *** meingtsil has quit IRC (Changing host) [15:37] *** meingtsil has joined #arpnetworks [15:37] *** pjs is now known as Guest53677 [15:38] *** Guest53677 is now known as pjs [15:38] *** meingtsil is now known as meingtsla [17:50] brycec: I like having old versions available, to test remote upgrades before doing it in production, as an example. [17:51] not that Ive done it at ARP. but, it's one of the reasons *I* keep old versions handy [17:53] *** carvite has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [17:53] hopefully the isos are served from zfs to avoid bitrott [17:54] *** staticsafe has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [17:54] rot* [17:54] *** toddf has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [17:55] *** carvite has joined #arpnetworks [17:56] *** toddf has joined #arpnetworks [17:56] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o toddf [18:03] *** staticsafe has joined #arpnetworks [18:31] *** milki has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [18:32] *** milki has joined #arpnetworks [18:39] I'm currently working a small Rails gig in Burbank, CA; we need a good front-end person to do some Parallax work, et. al. on short notice. Anyone interested or know anyone? [18:39] (this particular work would not involve Rails though) [18:44] i could do ios [18:45] apple ios, i mean [18:45] you mentioned front end is why i spoke up, not sure if it's relevant at all [18:45] I also need someone good with a Windows server for LDAP / Active Directory / etc... stuff [18:46] mus1cb0x: thanks, but this would be more plain web with parallax.js [18:46] ah [18:46] completely unable to help there :) [18:48] no problem :) [18:59] So... ARP isn't getting a fancy mobile app/interface? :P [18:59] Any news on the East Coast DC?

[20:17] light web serving, light web crawling, general ruby/rails web app dev [20:20] ty for showing interest in helping me milki [20:20] i would put more in / because ports go into /usr/local [20:20] and the ports tree is in /usr/ports [20:21] funny you mention :) my latest map is: boot (512 KB), / (4 GB), swap (1 GB), /tmp (1 GB), /var (2 GB), /home (remainder) [20:22] cuts /home down to 2GB [20:22] i also bumped /var [20:22] i don't expect to use more than 500MB of /home at most [20:23] * milki shrugs. thats dependent on how you dev [20:23] well /home aside, how do the others look? [21:12] up_the_irons: what do you need with windows AD? [21:14] mus1cb0x: ive never used such a small boot, so i dunno about that [21:14] 512KB? [21:14] or 4GB [21:14] 1gb swap is probably too much but tahts dependent on your apps [21:14] mus1cb0x: 512kb [21:15] freebsd's boot partition limit is only slightly above that [21:16] i dont know how to do efficient boot partitions. but my /boot folder is 350mb atm [21:16] >.> [21:16] o [21:16] you mean..boot loadeR? [21:16] yea [21:16] o ok [21:31] 1-800-BUTT-FUK [21:31] hm, wrong channel, sorry.

Basically, when people with desktops login to their Macs, they authenticate against LDAP / AD. Anyway, that box is dying and needs to be rebuilt afresh. [22:27] mnathani: lol [22:27] +1 [22:28] brycec: actually, lately i've been getting into mobile dev (phonegap / cordova, ionic, topcoat, etc...) and have been thinking about making some kind of mobile app / interface. [22:30] wasn't sure if i should make an API first that the mobile app talks to, or just let the mobile app authenticate with regular username/password of Portal.. but then in that case, i suppose, it still needs to talk to some backend... [22:57] up_the_irons: are they building on another piece of hardware? are they updating the version of windows server? [22:59] up_the_irons: as for mobile app, generally an API is the first part. that way, you have a solid interface between the versions. then you write your android and ios app that consumes that interface. [23:00] (The nice part, is if you document the API, others can write homegrown utilities to do their common tasks. [23:15] up_the_irons: generally speaking, you'll install the second windows server, join the existing domain. dcpromo it so it's the second AD controller. transfer the FSMO roles from the old machine to the new. demote the old controller once functionality is confirmed. finally, if the version of windows has changed, you may want to raise the domain functional level. [23:15] jpalmer: ofcourse dcpromo no longer exists in the 2012 version [23:17] There might be some concerns if the Macs are using an IP address to contact the LDAP/ AD server rather than the DNS name [23:18] right, thats why I said generally speaking. and modern macs are capable of using the standard SRV records from windows AD.. so I'd hope they aren't using IP :) [23:32] jpalmer: another piece of hardware, yes. Not sure about windows update. tnx for the executive summary. see, that is what i need to hire someone to do ;) [23:32] jpalmer: also, roger on the API. I'm going to start thinking about writing an ARP Networks API :) [23:33] up_the_irons: is the windows server doing anything else? (web server, accounting software, etc etc.. lots of smaller companies use the windows server as an all in one machine) [23:33] not that i know of [23:33] if it's *just* acting as an AD controller and related services, (dhcp, dns, certificate authority, etc) it probably won't be too bad, cost wise. [23:34] yeah [23:36] alright, methinks it is bedtime.
