awstats: Debian's update.sh script

2016-12-18 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,

I'm setting up the awstats version from Debian Stable.

There is Debian custom update.sh script included, which should update
all logs, identified by a configuration file in /etc/awstats

# ll /etc/awstats
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63654 May 14  2016 awstats.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  2593 Dec 16 18:12 awstats.conf.local
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   173 Dec 16 17:48 awstats.xgm.de.conf

when executing the update.sh script:

# /usr/share/awstats/tools/update.sh
Error while processing /etc/awstats/awstats.conf
Error: SiteDomain parameter not defined in your config/domain file. You
must edit it for using this version of AWStats.
Setup ('/etc/awstats/awstats.conf' file, web server or permissions) may
be wrong.
Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs'
directory).


The script iterates through all configs:

for c in `/bin/ls -1 awstats.*.conf 2>/dev/null | \
  /bin/sed 's/^awstats\.\(.*\)\.conf/\1/'` \
 `[ -f /etc/awstats/awstats.conf ] && echo awstats`
do

The frist two lines correctly return my config = xgm.de, but the second
line adds a config=awstats, when awstats.conf exists.

Why is that? Who is awstats configuration under Debian meant to be used?
My understanding is that I do not modify the awstats.conf but create a
awstats.conf.local where all changed settings are copied over. This
awstats.conf.local is now included from the awstats.domain.conf files?

But why is iterated like that? Should the awstats.conf be deleted and
completely be moved over to awstats.conf.local?

Thanks,
Florian

Hey,

testing goes stable, does it?

proftpd in testing

2016-12-11 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,

I'm currently doing a re-setup of my server on Debian Testing. My old
server, which is on oldstable used proftpd as FTP server.

https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=sourcenames=proftpd

proftpd seems to be removed from Stretch. Is that true or a
misunderstanding on my side? Why was it removed? Lack of maintainer or a
specific reason?

Can you recommend any alternatives? Nothing fancy, just a ftp server
that can use mysql as authentication and bear the load of approx on or
two logins in a week... ;-)

Best,

autostart for users

2013-11-21 Thread Florian Lindner

Hello,

I want to give users the possbility to autostart programms on boot. My 
first idea would be to put a line like that in /etc/rc.local


[ -x /home/flindner/autostart ]  su flindner -c 
/home/flindner/autostart


Probably something like that would be better:

[ -x /home/cburchard/autostart ]  su cburchard -c 
/home/cburchard/autostart 


So that a blocking script does not block the rc.local file. Should I 
also add a nohup? Or another way?


Thanks,
Florian

You could teach your users to add programs to their crontab.

 $ crontab -e

will open an editor (specified by the $EDITOR variable) with the user's
crontab. Adding a line such as @reboot /home/flindner/mydaemon.sh 
will

cause mydaemon.sh to be run as the user upon reboot.


Cool, didn't know about that!

Florian

GMail like mail workflow

2013-11-15 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello!

I'm about to migrate my mails from GMail back to my self hosted
solution, using Dovecot imap server on Debian Stable.

I really like the gmail workflow:

- (Almost) all mail goes to inbox.
- Most mail is read and not important anymore, it is archived and
moved to all messages.
- Inbox stays more or less clean, with only mails that are still of
some interest.
- Mail (except Spam) is never deleted, just archived.

How can I achieve such a workflow using Dovecot and some MUA
(Roundcube and probably KMail).

- I can simply delete messages that I want to archive, Trash will
never be purged. Problems: Some mail clients have settings like Purge
Trash at exit, so my mail is always in danger of being deleted
accidently. Futhermore it does not really have the semantics of what I
am actually doing.

- Instead of deleting messages for archiving, move them to some Archiv
folder. Since archiving is a very frequent action this involves much
more cliks in the MUA than just deleting. Or some configuration change
in the client.

How would you do that? I'm also open to entirely different
suggestions! What I want are basically these things:
- Never delete legitimate mail
- Use the Inbox as a workspace for mails that are still of some
interest. This can also be quite old mail, time based archiving does
not work.
- Have some kind of mail archive.

Thanks!

Florian

Different weird update by apt-get and aptitude

2013-11-07 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,

I have a virtual server with a minimal debian wheezy image provided by the 
hoster.

Right after setup of the image:

root@xxx:~# aptitude full-upgrade
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.

but apt-get

root@xxx:~# apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  upstart
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  e2fsprogs libss2 sysvinit
0 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 1175 kB of archives.
After this operation, 1680 kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n
Abort.


Why do aptitude and apt-get give different answers? 

If I approve the updates it renders the virtual server inoperable. Sorry for 
being confused but why is upstart installed in the first place? It also seem to 
be used: 
# service cron status: [ ok ] cron is running.

Is the image from my hoster broken or is it my debian knowledge?

Regards,
Florian

 Are you talking about /etc/cron.daily/apt.dpkg-dist file name?  That
 name will never be run by run-parts because the name matches one of
 the standard dpkg installed files that are NOT enabled.  run-parts is
 called by cron from /etc/crontab.

Ah, didn't know that!

 Try this and see what names are printed.  The apt.dpkg-dist name will
 not be printed.  It is not run by run-parts.  Along with #* names
 and *~ names and others that are skipped.
 
   run-parts --list /etc/cron.daily
 
 I guess that when apt was installed or upgraded somewhere along the
 way you had modified the /etc/cron.daily/apt file.  Therefore dpkg
 didn't overwrite it and left the new version of the file there as
 apt.dpkg-dist so that you could examine it and merge it into the
 standard /etc/cron.daily/apt file if desired.

Actually I didn't modified the apt file, there is not even a apt file in 
cron.daily. Maybe it was because I I tried cron-apt too and they somehow 
conflicted.
 
 [I don't remember the difference between files with .dpkg-dist and
 .dpkg-new names.  Basically the same situation but arrived there
 differently.  Conversely if dpkg replaces a file then the old file is
 left around as .dpkg-old.  dpkg will ask you with a dialog if you want
 the old file, new file, or view differences, then you select one
 option and the result is as you see.]

Never saw such a dialog, but I think mv apt.dpkg-dist apt should have fixed it.

Thanks!

Jessie Minimum Kernel Requirement

I plan to use Debian on a virtual server where I can't control the 
kernel version, that is 2.6.32.


What is the minimum kernel version for the upcoming Jessie? Can I rely

Are there any other open sourced alternatives.

I am not interested in server/client designs like owncloud, pud.io

It should be able to propagate latest changes to other nodes/clients,
be secure, and should be available for different platforms.


Take a look at git-annex http://git-annex.branchable.com/ It takes some 
time to grasp the concept but it's very powerful and can be used to 
mimic system like dropbox while still having fine grained control about

Basic false assumption was that I read Nov 5th 2013 instead of 2014. So I'll

apticron reporting errors, aptitude not

have you compiled your own kernel? Check if HIGHMEM4G is activated (you will 
find it in Processor type and featueres in the kernel config).

adduser not interactive

2007-10-12 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,
is it possible to use adduser non interactive? I've searched the manpage but 
found no switch.
I know about useradd but I've read that adduser tries to be more Debian like.

Thanks,

Yes, I know I can set in various places in /etc but I want to set it only for

Why does it not work when placed in ~./bashrc or ~/.bash_profile? I can set in

nano: del/backspace confusion

2007-10-08 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,
I just did a new Debian installation and my nano editor has a confusion of the 
backspace and delete key (delete works like backspace). I've looked at the 
config file and commented out an appropiate option but it's still there:

osiris:/# grep -v ^# /etc/nanorc | grep -v ^$
set historylog
set rebinddelete
set suspend

Any other option to set?

 Hi all

 In either Grip or RipperX when I want to rip a CD to mp3 it seems that I
 am only able to do so in an ogg vorbis format. I have nothing against
 *.ogg, although some of my friends seem to have difficulty when I want
 to share music samples with them. Is there an encoder or codec (?) that
 I am needing to rip to mp3 formats?

Check if lame is installed.

 The dhcp client is not run from /etc/init.d, it is called by the ifup
 command (which is called by /etc/init.d/networking) if the interface is
 configured to do so in /etc/network/interfaces.

 It seems to be a dhcp client (but I don't know why). Have you checked
 that pump isn't installed?

pump is not installed.


 Or perhaps resolvconf does this if it is installed (on one of my
 machines, it got installed automatically and modified some files,
 which was annoying as I use netenv).

Neither is resolvconf installed.

 Also, you should look at the mtime of the modified files and look
 at your log files if something special occurred at this time (or
 a few seconds earlier).

The syslog is almost empty and so is dmesg. It's problem because of the 
virtual server that there is not very much output of the kernel routet to the 
child OS.

Anymore ideas?

Thanks,

Florian

if-up.d contains only mountntf and if-down.d is empty?

Is is possible that this change of hostnames is somehow enfored by the

 Hi:

 Please forgive me if this has already been suggested, but I encountered
 a similar problem running Lenny. Try getting rid of networkmanager.

What package do you mean? 
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=networkmanagersearchon=namessuite=stablesection=all
 
says that there is no package named networkmanager.

Regards,

Florian

 I 
 actually wound up purging this utility. There are probably more elegant
 ways to make it behave, but I felt foolish enough after I discovered
 what was causing the problem that I found the exercise distinctly
 satisfying.

 Hope that helps,
 Kevin

 Hi Florian:

 My apologies. I made a typo. Here's the culprit:
 network-manager_0.6.5-1_i386.deb . There are affiliated Gnome and KDE
 packages as well. From the description:

This package is not installed.

Any more ideas?

Thanks,

since the default table charset is set at compile time at MySQL (IIRC) I

One more question: How could I have found at myself? Can I view the build 
specs (the ./configure line) anywhere?

The interface config I have set in /etc/network/interfaces copied from the

I set the /etc/hostname:

84.19.179.252 isis.centershock.net isis
127.0.0.1  localhost localhost.localdomain

The names resolv to this IP and the reverse PTR also to the names. But after a 
reboot the two files have changed somehow:

km22204-07.keymachine.de

and

84.19.178.252 osiris.centershock.net osiris
84.19.179.252 isis.centershock.net isis
127.0.0.1  km22204-07.keymachine.de km22204-07 localhost localhost.localdomain

The /etc/resolv.conf is also altered:

search keymachine.de # This line has been added
nameserver 84.19.178.252
nameserver 84.19.188.171

keymachine is my hoster.

What could this make happen? In /etc/init.d/ there is nothing like a dhcp 
client. I have also removed some packages with dhcp in their names.

Any idea what makes these two files changing and how to avoid it?

Thanks a lot,

Florian

logrotate: Logs in all subdirs of wildcard

2007-09-24 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,
can I configure logrotate so that it rotates the logfiles in a subdir of a 
wildcard, for example: /home/*/http/log/access.log which should work for all 
users. Does this work?

Another question:
Is there a logrotate config option to create the old (just rotated) file as 
the same user as the original log file? (or is this the default behavior)

Sorry, I just can't try it out at the moment.
