<0> Reve: How goes the EVE?
<1> Edger Alan Power Over Ethernet?
<2> haha
<3> tommi: As root, on a very important box!
<4> longword: very interesting.
<1> Coma: <stare>
<3> tommi: One controlling a nuclear powerplant
<4> root@sfarc :#/
<3> Hey!
<1> Coma: oh, it's running a LART?
<0> And you've barely scratched the surface
<3> Revenger: Actually, there's no such box :P
<4> Coma: do you really think i would use actual hostnames here :P
<1> I suggest you -use- it :P
<3> Revie: Anyone that knows me well enough should be able to guess most of my hostnames anyway ;)
<1> Coma: arbec?
<3> You mean Ardbeg? Nope ;P
<1> bah :P
<1> you **** arse.
<3> No, I just don't name boxen after whiskies
<1> you **** arse, me hump leg. we #lh'ers.
<3> Imagine having to type ssh laphroaig, especially after having a few :P
<3> Or worse, ssh bunnahabhain
<1> Coma: yes? that's called security through obscurit^whisky.
<3> lol
<4> ssh ? how obsolete.
<4> swc. secure whisky connection.
<1> Revenger: ip***+telnet? :P
<5> Coma: I tried aztec gods for servernames once.
<5> Coma: it didn't last.
<1> ofcourse, Apu was the designated server for our Bangladeshi branch
<1> for some reason, Homer always ground to a halt, and bart never got stable.
<3> wlfshmn: Oh, I'm still using one of those schemes here, naming dmz boxen after moons (and thus gods and the like)
<2> this mac oui thing doesn't work
<2> it alwasys gives oui unknown, regardless whats the mac address
<5> well I'll be damned..
<5> they actually recruited a female to the group
<5> about damn time
<3> Stop drooling :P
<1> wlfshmn: unpossibol!
<5> Coma: why? ;)
<3> Hmm.
<3> Anyone knows of a way to find out a Dell's service tag without actually having to walk to the computer?
<5> Coma: maybe an ***et or serial tag in dmi?
<6> there's a program that does it if it's running windows
<5> Coma: use lshw to browse it ;)
<6> maybe there's a similar linux program
<6> if you have line-of-sight you could use binoculars
<3> Nah, it's down in the serverroom
<4> if you have no line-of-sight you could use PFY.
<6> do you have a subordinate to get it?
<6> indeed
<3> yay, that worked
<1> Coma: lazy basturd.
<5> Coma: I rock ;)
<3> I hope this also lists the ram installed =)
<3> wlfshmn: You mentioning dmi helped a lot. Suddenly thought of dmidecode, which I've used in the past
<5> DMI will ist the number of banks and size of modules, but not type, speed or ecc/reg and whatnot
<4> so. you have to move that lazy butt of yours towards the serverroom anyway.
<3> Oh, that we can lookup by service tag. I only need to know how many banks available/filled
<5> BSD has some fancy utility that does a much better job at identifying ram details than any linux equivalent I've seen
<3> Heh, and you learn something new every day. I didn't know the box had 64bit pci-x slots
<5> Coma: It's lying, pretending to be better than it really is so you won't buy a replacement
<3> This is weird...
<3> It claims it can hold 16GB, yet has six slots available
<5> so it can take 2Gb moedules..
<5> ***uming a typical 2 occupied
<3> 6 x 2GB makes 12, not 16
<5> ah, I thought you ment 6 -availible-, asn in 8 total, 2 occupied
<5> then either the first slots can take 4GB moduels while the rest can't, or something is fishy
<5> that, or they released 2.66GB modules when I wasnt' looking
<3> Probably the second. It's still a dell
<5> I'm growing increasingly fond of HP I'm afraid
<1> compared to dell, no wonder.
<3> Somewhere in the darkages we used to be an all compaq shop, now it's all dell
<5> I started getting HP because my current supplier carries their stuff (versus Dell stuff I have to buy directly from them)
<1> Coma: and you never got on the alpha train? :P
<5> the non-hp hardware carried by my supplier either couldn't provide 3 year contracts, or could only provide it for insane amounts of money
<1> wlfshmn: sun?
<5> tommi: heck no, we are a tiny shop, we hav eno use fo sun hardware
<1> wlfshmn: shop?
<1> wlfshmn: like, reseller?
<5> tommi: in the general term, the place in question is an electronics/optics R&D unit with limited production capabilities
<1> wlfshmn: ah, I thought you were employed by something slightly bigger.
<5> tommi: I am. That place that now buys Hp is my fathers company, for which I do the IT stuff
<1> wlfshmn: ah
<5> tommi: my day job is as a programmer for a slightly larger comapny, yes
<7> .o
<1> wlfshmn: I seem to recall you being in a branch of the .se dept that bought our .se dept at some point or another back in the dark ages.
<1> wlfshmn: well, my previous employer.
<5> tommi: no idea, really. I work for IFS
<1> wlfshmn: then my memory is shot :P
<5> tommi: perhaps ;)
<5> they used to buy people, but not lately. I myself was part of the last comapny they bought I believe
<1> wlfshmn: this is like 7 years ago.
<5> before my time in any case then, I'm a little shy of seven years in the work market ;)
<1> wlfshmn: <nod>
<1> wlfshmn: by actually doing it, or just clearing it?
<0> Revenger: Got yourself a cruiser yet?
<4> nah
<4> unfortunatly i had not much time for it the last days
<8> When I try to issue 'locate updatedb' I get locate: database too small: /var/db/locate.database
<8> how do i know where is setted up the updatedb tool?
<0> You can run 'updatedb' yourself
<0> Or check /etc/sysconfig/slocate and /etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron
<0> Sorry, scratch that first file it's /etc/updatedb.conf instead
<8> longword it says no such command
<8> :/
<0> Judge: Is the slocate package installed?
<9> ...
<0> Well hello there!
<0> Reve: Just make sure you're training a skill all the time, don't waste your skill training time
<10> longword hi, how may i help you ?
<10> err
<10> sorry
<8> let me see
<9> lol
<0> Apology accepted
<9> nick
<9> ;)
<10> mouse got stuck
<8> su: slocate: command not found
<10> hey `Jadey`
<4> ok
<4> i need coffee.
<4> i just read that `Jadey` slapped me with her boobs.
<9> lol
<9> well
<9> err
<9> nm
<4> "well" ?
<4> :PO
<9> :P
<11> how to extract defender-1.4b1.tar.bz2 in linux ?
<1> ImYourGod: man tar
<11> tar and?
<1> man tar.
<11> tar defender-1.4b1.tar.bz2
<11> is not working.. i nedd tar option arhive
<1> man tar is still the answer.
<1> if, god forbid, you are incapable of unarchiving the distribution package, I'd dare suggest that you'd be incapable of making any use of the content anyway.
<12> anyone up?
<13> no
