**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 31 02:59:57 2006
Dec 31 10:08:12 <m1cha3lp> Morning all - does anyone know how to install Nethack?
Dec 31 10:27:59 <m1cha3lp> anyone?
Dec 31 10:57:45 <m1cha3lp> anyone know much about thttpd website?
Dec 31 11:27:06 <m1cha3lp> anyone help me with thttpd?
Dec 31 11:29:32 <m1cha3lp> having a bit of trouble to get my website to display rather than my admin page
Dec 31 12:02:12 <barnseenio> i guess it sthe conf?
Dec 31 12:16:29 <m1cha3lp> well i've got all my files in the /share/hdd/data/website folder
Dec 31 12:16:48 <m1cha3lp> and i've changed the thttpd-website.conf so it is correct
Dec 31 12:17:18 <m1cha3lp> the bit i don't understand is changing the above config file with this line: pidfile=/var/run/thttpd-website.pid
Dec 31 12:17:27 <m1cha3lp> as i don't have a file called that in the folder it says?
Dec 31 12:25:52 <drif> m1cha3lp: it should create it...it only contains the pid-number of that specific process so scripts can handle it when needed to (and recognize it)
Dec 31 12:26:10 <drif> it's like handle to that process - sorta
Dec 31 12:44:27 <m1cha3lp> hmm i've still got a problem in that when i type in 192.168.0.2 (my slugs address) i get the homepage..when i type in 192.168.0.2:81 i get nothing - page not displayed - when i should be getting my website
Dec 31 12:46:05 <drif> and "ps aux" does show the process?
Dec 31 12:46:39 <m1cha3lp> what would the process be called?
Dec 31 12:47:24 <m1cha3lp>  325         root       2160   S   /usr/sbin/thttpd -C /etc/thttpd.conf
Dec 31 12:47:32 <m1cha3lp> looks like it is running then?
Dec 31 12:47:48 <m1cha3lp> well - looks like just the normal one not my website conf?
Dec 31 12:48:29 <drif> yup, just the normal one
Dec 31 12:48:47 <m1cha3lp> hmm..why is my other one not running then?
Dec 31 12:48:48 <drif> hav you ran the startup-script yet?
Dec 31 12:49:04 <drif> /opt/etc/init.d/ should contain it
Dec 31 12:49:15 <drif> +e
Dec 31 12:50:08 <m1cha3lp> it contains a file called S90website
Dec 31 12:50:12 <m1cha3lp> but it is blank?
Dec 31 12:50:17 <drif> is it?
Dec 31 12:50:26 <drif> cat /opt/etc/init.d/S90website
Dec 31 12:50:53 <m1cha3lp> returns this:
Dec 31 12:51:18 <m1cha3lp> hang on
Dec 31 12:51:43 <m1cha3lp> returns:
Dec 31 12:52:06 <drif> yes?
Dec 31 12:52:13 <m1cha3lp> sorry it would not paste
Dec 31 12:52:20 <drif> how come?
Dec 31 12:52:40 <drif> which terminal-software you're using?
Dec 31 12:52:47 <m1cha3lp> putty
Dec 31 12:52:49 <m1cha3lp> ssh
Dec 31 12:53:25 <m1cha3lp> it returns this /usr/sbin/thttpd -C /etc/thttpd-website.conf
Dec 31 12:53:29 <drif> ok, then copy/paste is simply "paint" the text and paste is right mouse click
Dec 31 12:53:39 <joga> hello
Dec 31 12:53:43 <drif> hi joga
Dec 31 12:53:50 <joga> my nslu2 just now started beeping every few seconds
Dec 31 12:54:03 <drif> what does df return?
Dec 31 12:54:08 <joga> why would that be? I thought it would complain because free space fall below 2%
Dec 31 12:54:12 <drif> you might have ran out of free space
Dec 31 12:54:22 <drif> yes, it's the case here
Dec 31 12:54:42 <joga> but why does it beep all the time, crontab seemed to do it every 8 hours or so
Dec 31 12:55:02 <joga> I even tried to move away the CheckDiskFull script
Dec 31 12:55:31 <m1cha3lp> does my file look ok then drif?
Dec 31 12:55:32 <joga> is there some way to tell it not to beep, since I still have about 10GB of free space there, it's a 400GB drive
Dec 31 12:56:12 <drif> joga: if you wish to turn off the beep - when it occures "/usr/bin/Set_Led ready"
Dec 31 12:56:13 <joga> oh and I'm using unslung 6.8 (iirc)
Dec 31 12:56:46 <caplink811_log> m1cha3lp, could pls pastebin the whole contents of your /opt/etc/init.d/S90website script?
Dec 31 12:57:03 <joga> drif is that a one-time fix, or how should I configure it so it won't do it again if I reboot it?
Dec 31 12:57:17 <drif> caplink: I believe it was all? atleast he didn't say it would contain anything else..
Dec 31 12:57:28 <drif> joga: one time..
Dec 31 12:57:35 <drif> joga: edit crontab
Dec 31 12:57:42 <m1cha3lp> that is all it contains as i pasted above
Dec 31 12:57:42 <drif> to fix it permanently
Dec 31 12:57:54 <m1cha3lp> i can paste what command i used originally when creating it if you like?
Dec 31 12:58:08 <caplink811_log> well, maybe a good thing if there is something like #!/bin/sh at the first line of the script
Dec 31 12:59:37 <joga> drif how often should I execute Set_Led ready?
Dec 31 12:59:40 <m1cha3lp> i simply copied what the wiki says here:
Dec 31 12:59:50 <m1cha3lp> cd /opt/etc/init.d
Dec 31 12:59:56 <m1cha3lp> echo "/usr/sbin/thttpd -C /etc/thttpd-website.conf" >S90website
Dec 31 13:00:00 <m1cha3lp> chmod +x S90website
Dec 31 13:00:06 <m1cha3lp> do i need more than that?
Dec 31 13:00:39 <drif> hold a sec
Dec 31 13:00:46 <m1cha3lp> k
Dec 31 13:00:46 <drif> http://pastebin.com/848439
Dec 31 13:00:55 <drif> check that link
Dec 31 13:01:17 <drif> it should be similar to that
Dec 31 13:01:20 <caplink811_log> sure, as i mentioned above, each script must start with a line which contains the command shell, e.g. #!/bin/sh at least
Dec 31 13:02:24 <drif> mich: on which page did you follow the instructions? or did on your own?
Dec 31 13:02:34 <m1cha3lp> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/SimpleHomeWebsite
Dec 31 13:03:07 <m1cha3lp> so if i type all what i have above...but with this line at the top #!/bin/sh and compile again it might work? 
Dec 31 13:03:12 <m1cha3lp> do i need a return at all?
Dec 31 13:03:16 <caplink811_log> drif, luxurious design it is ;)
Dec 31 13:04:19 <drif> cap: :D had to make those modifications in order to get it working with my showcenter scripts.. since thttpd seems to offer bit limited config-options
Dec 31 13:04:46 <drif> thanks to built-in 'foolsafe' security... or something like that..
Dec 31 13:05:33 <drif> mich: compile again?
Dec 31 13:06:02 <m1cha3lp> well, restart again i mean:) - just doing it now
Dec 31 13:06:30 <drif> restart which?
Dec 31 13:06:43 <caplink811_log> m1cha3lp, http://rafb.net/p/k59Gj875.html is more then enough
Dec 31 13:06:43 <drif> script/process or slug? :D
Dec 31 13:08:50 <m1cha3lp> slug
Dec 31 13:09:13 <drif> why_
Dec 31 13:09:14 <drif> _
Dec 31 13:09:27 <m1cha3lp> the wiki says to
Dec 31 13:09:43 <drif> restart is almost never only option to proceed :D
Dec 31 13:09:55 <drif> although it's the easiest
Dec 31 13:10:36 <drif> mich: so, I'll take it you won't be needing php on your pages?
Dec 31 13:10:55 <joga> drif hmm, I rebooted the thing after I had renamed the CheckDiskFull script, now the slug doesn't beep anymore
Dec 31 13:10:57 <m1cha3lp> no, just basic hmtl i need really
Dec 31 13:12:09 <drif> ok, but now laters - happy new year everybody (bit premature I know)
Dec 31 13:12:58 <m1cha3lp> happy new year:)
Dec 31 13:13:27 <drif> :)
Dec 31 13:14:33 <m1cha3lp> when i do df /opt/etc/init.d/S90website
Dec 31 13:14:37 <m1cha3lp> i get loads more
Dec 31 13:15:03 <drif> ehm..
Dec 31 13:15:12 <m1cha3lp> about filesystem, root mounted etc
Dec 31 13:15:15 <m1cha3lp> different than last time
Dec 31 13:15:16 <drif> df shows the free disk space
Dec 31 13:15:24 <m1cha3lp> sorry, wrong command
Dec 31 13:15:30 <drif> and other stats
Dec 31 13:15:30 <drif> cat
Dec 31 13:15:35 <drif> is what you were looking for
Dec 31 13:16:07 <m1cha3lp> sorry yes - and it shows this: /usr/sbin/thttpd -C /etc/thttpd-website.conf
Dec 31 13:16:35 <m1cha3lp> i'm lost now
Dec 31 13:16:42 <drif> how come?
Dec 31 13:17:45 <drif> cap: are you busy? could you continue with mich?
Dec 31 13:18:44 <m1cha3lp> i think it is just this startup script giving me trouble, i might even be creating it in the wrong place
Dec 31 13:19:55 <m1cha3lp> it needs to be here: /opt/etc/init.d  -but do i need to create it within a file here - called anything?
Dec 31 13:24:37 <caplink811_log> drif, k, some spare minutes before preparing the lunch
Dec 31 13:25:20 <m1cha3lp> thanks
Dec 31 13:25:57 <m1cha3lp> i think i totally don't understand this startup script and where it is meant to go?
Dec 31 13:26:39 <caplink811_log> m1cha3lp, 1st. create a file in /opt/etc/init.d, the name must start with a "large" S, e.g. S99mywebserver... command: >/opt/etc/init.d/S99mywebserver<enter>
Dec 31 13:27:21 <caplink811_log> 2nd. change the permissions of this file command: chmod 755 /opt/etc/init.d/S99mywebserver<enter>
Dec 31 13:28:03 <caplink811_log> 3rd now edit this file and put this http://rafb.net/p/k59Gj875.html in
Dec 31 13:29:02 <m1cha3lp> would i nano s99? - edit it like that
Dec 31 13:32:18 <caplink811_log> you could use nano, vi, or whatever... after edit, verify the contents of /opt/etc/init.d/S99mywebserver.. command: cat /opt/etc/init.d/S99mywebserver<enter>
Dec 31 13:33:08 <Mika_> hey caplink811_log how are you
Dec 31 13:33:08 <capbot> Mika_: just great
Dec 31 13:33:32 <caplink811_log> Mika_, fine, thx, i hope, you too?
Dec 31 13:33:56 <Mika_> Yes at the moment i feel great.. and ready for tonight
Dec 31 13:34:07 <Mika_> and you wil you make a special evening ?
Dec 31 13:34:18 <Mika_> Long time ago that we have spoke
Dec 31 13:34:42 <caplink811_log> we will go slow - diner, theatre, midnight ;)
Dec 31 13:35:06 <Mika_> Sounds nice :=)
Dec 31 13:35:11 <caplink811_log> Mika_, yeah, much work in the last few weeks
Dec 31 13:35:23 <caplink811_log> m1cha3lp, any progrss?
Dec 31 13:35:33 <Mika_> still same companie ?
Dec 31 13:35:39 <caplink811_log> s/progrss/progress/
Dec 31 13:35:39 <capbot> caplink811_log meant: m1cha3lp, any progress?
Dec 31 13:35:58 <caplink811_log> Mika_, yes
Dec 31 13:35:59 <m1cha3lp> sorry, got caught up with a phone call half way through your instructions, back now
Dec 31 13:40:35 <caplink811_log> m1cha3lp, and make sure, that /etc/thttpd-website.conf exists
Dec 31 13:42:09 <m1cha3lp> ok done that - that S99mywebserver is created and shows the commands you told me to put in
Dec 31 13:42:17 <Mika_> caplink811_log: Here is change a lot only the work is the same.. you know from the start in the year? 
Dec 31 13:42:26 <m1cha3lp> and that other config file is there in /etc
Dec 31 13:42:35 <m1cha3lp> so what is the next step?
Dec 31 13:45:37 <caplink811_log> execute ps -ef|grep thttpd<enter>, you should recognise only one process
Dec 31 13:46:57 <m1cha3lp> hmm it has two
Dec 31 13:47:48 <caplink811_log> two processes, or two lines in the output?
Dec 31 13:47:55 <m1cha3lp> two output lines
Dec 31 13:48:13 <m1cha3lp> one says /user/sbin/thttpd -c /etc/thttpd.conf
Dec 31 13:48:21 <m1cha3lp> and then gep thttpd on the other
Dec 31 13:48:52 <m1cha3lp> sorry that should read grep
Dec 31 13:49:38 <caplink811_log> k, so enter /opt/etc/init.d/S99mywebserver
Dec 31 13:50:33 <caplink811_log> and then ps -ef|grep thttpd<enter> again, this should reult in a 3 line output
Dec 31 13:51:11 <m1cha3lp> i get this line when i did your first thing /usr/sbin/thttpd: unknown config option 'website,'
Dec 31 13:52:36 <caplink811_log> seems there is a typo in your S99mywebserver script
Dec 31 13:53:00 <m1cha3lp> k let me look again - all i did was copy your code so i dont see why but i'll check
Dec 31 13:54:28 <m1cha3lp> does the bash part need the # infront?
Dec 31 13:54:45 <m1cha3lp> sorry, does the !bin part need the # infront?
Dec 31 13:54:55 <caplink811_log> yes
Dec 31 13:55:30 <m1cha3lp> k
Dec 31 14:00:37 * caplink811_log is preparing the dinner, back in 2 hours, or so
Dec 31 14:08:46 <m1cha3lp> totally lost now:(
Dec 31 14:11:32 <m1cha3lp> anyone?
Dec 31 14:41:00 <m1cha3lp> hello?
Dec 31 14:43:18 <m1cha3lp> i could really do with some help with thttpd
Dec 31 15:07:15 <m1cha3lp> ahh it works now:)
Dec 31 15:07:42 <m1cha3lp> if you read this guys that helped - thanks ever so - your instructions did work it was me not following them correctly
Dec 31 15:40:38 <m1cha3lp> anyone on at the moment?
Dec 31 15:48:24 <NSLU2-IRC> anyone on?
Dec 31 15:48:57 <NSLU2-IRC> grr hate name changes
Dec 31 15:49:06 <NSLU2-IRC> "/nick m1cha3lp
Dec 31 15:50:47 <m1ch> anyone on?
Dec 31 15:55:57 <m1ch> i've got my thttpd website up and running but not how i want it
Dec 31 15:56:15 <m1ch> if i type my domain in www.****.com i get my nslu2 admin page
Dec 31 15:56:29 <m1ch> if i type in my domain www.****.com:81 i get my website
Dec 31 15:56:49 <m1ch> i don't want my webadmin page accessible on the internet - anyone know how to turn it off?
Dec 31 15:56:50 <caplink811_log> what kind of router do you use?
Dec 31 15:56:59 <m1ch> negear dg834g
Dec 31 15:57:04 <m1ch> netgear#
Dec 31 15:58:08 <caplink811_log> then you should do a port forwarding on the router from incoming port 80 to the destination ip-nslu port 81
Dec 31 15:59:44 <m1ch> i don't get how to do that though - i know basic port forwarding
Dec 31 16:00:47 <m1ch> so i add a service - websvr - type tcp - start port and end port is 80 and 81?
Dec 31 16:09:50 <caplink811_log> it seems, that your router isn't able to handle this correctly (according to page 5-6 to 5-7 of the reference manual)
Dec 31 16:16:50 <m1ch> is there another way around it then?
Dec 31 16:18:10 <caplink811_log> change the admin port number via the webinterface, and then let your new webserver use port 80.
Dec 31 16:19:50 <m1ch> would that mean everytime i wanted to user the interface i'd have to use 192.168.1.77:2000 for example
Dec 31 16:27:11 <m1ch> arghh i can't access my web interface now
Dec 31 16:30:26 <m1ch> bk now
Dec 31 16:37:07 <m1ch> is it possible to turn off the web interface to the outside world but allow it on my network only?
Dec 31 16:40:33 <m1ch> just turn off the upnp?
Dec 31 17:03:45 <m1ch> i've got my nslu2 and the basic FTP working...which friends can access with a log in..
Dec 31 17:04:13 <m1ch> a friend said he wanted to use fxp to send files from his ftp server to mine - but it would not work - anyone know why?
Dec 31 17:41:06 <tuv> m1ch, what's your ftp server?
Dec 31 17:42:25 <tuv> m1ch, i setup fxp on vsftp once a while ago. it needs some options in the conffile. consult your server's dos
Dec 31 17:42:27 <tuv> docs
Dec 31 18:23:05 <m1ch> tuv, i'm using the standard built in ftp server
Dec 31 18:23:11 <m1ch> sorry for the late reply, i was out the room
Dec 31 18:23:51 <tuv> m1ch, do you mean inetd's ftp server? i don't think it supports fxp, but i'm not sure
Dec 31 18:24:22 <m1ch> erm, whatever the built in one is yes
Dec 31 18:24:56 <tuv> i don't know if there is any built-in ftp server, but anyway all i know is vsftpd does support fxp
Dec 31 18:25:10 <m1ch> have you configured vsftp on the nslu2 then?? - i tried to follow the instructions but found it too hard a while ago - but i know more now so might give it another go
Dec 31 18:25:18 <tuv> although setting up fxp in vsftpd is not very straightforward
Dec 31 18:25:24 <m1ch> is vsftp worth me having another go - is it a lot better than the standard?
Dec 31 18:25:42 <tuv> as vsftpd defaults to the most secure options which all conflict with fxp
Dec 31 18:26:14 <tuv> m1ch, vsftpd is the ftp server used in most internet sites
Dec 31 18:26:37 <m1ch> is it an sftp or just a normal secure ftp
Dec 31 18:26:53 <tuv> ftp
Dec 31 18:26:58 <m1ch> i did try with the installing it but was not sure how to do diversion scripts which i know about now
Dec 31 18:27:13 <m1ch> does it matter that it is not sftp - i know we only use sftp at work
Dec 31 18:27:42 <tuv> sftp works on top of openssh. it does not need an ftp server
Dec 31 18:29:15 <tuv> m1ch, for a motivation, check out 'What large sites are trusting vsftpd?' at http://vsftpd.beasts.org/
Dec 31 18:29:30 <m1ch> would you say vsftp is easy enough to install then?
Dec 31 18:29:49 <m1ch> also do you need to disable (or just turn off) the standard ftp server?
Dec 31 18:30:18 <tuv> m1ch, probably you will need to disable it yes if they use the same port (default)
Dec 31 18:30:53 <m1ch> just by turning off in the web page app i guess - nothing more than that?
Dec 31 18:35:21 <m1ch> might give it a try - just looking at the wiki about it now
Dec 31 18:37:11 <m1ch> it says create or modify a diversion scrit in /unslung/rc.xinetd
Dec 31 18:37:18 <m1ch> what would you call it?
Dec 31 19:10:18 <caplink811_log> before you trying anything with rc.xinetd, you should install a ssh-server (dropbear e.g), so you can access your nslu with putty/ssh if things messed up
Dec 31 19:23:49 <m1ch> caplink - was that to me?
Dec 31 19:23:59 <m1ch> i've got openssh installed if that question was to me
Dec 31 19:24:15 <m1ch> thanks for your help earlier with my thttpd web server - works fine
Dec 31 19:36:22 <m1ch> anyone know how to install Nethack?
Dec 31 19:36:37 <m1ch> there is a wiki page for it but no ipkg?
Dec 31 19:42:32 <m1ch> anyone?
