| 11:20 Stere0 | hello |
| 11:21 Stere0 | do you guys usually run a small dns server on the fai server? |
| 11:21 mgoetze | uh, i don't, don't know about anyone else |
| 11:22 mgoetze | but it kind of depends whether you have any other dns infrastructure in place, doesn't it? |
| 11:24 Stere0 | yeah |
| 11:25 Stere0 | as long as the clients can resolve the faiserver's address it's fine, right? |
| 11:26 mgoetze | well i personally think you should always have working forward and reverse dns for everything |
| 11:26 mgoetze | but there are people who care less than i do ;) |
| 11:32 Stere0 | heh |
| 11:41 Stere0 | I think I've noticed a bug in the documentation |
| 11:41 Stere0 | the line for the tftpd is tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /srv/tftp/fai |
| 11:42 Stere0 | in the dhcpd configuration, it says filename "fai/pxelinux.0"; |
| 11:42 Stere0 | so it looks for /srv/tftp/fai/fai/pxelinux.0 instead of /srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.0 |
| Nick change: Stere0 -> Stereo |

| 12:28 mgoetze | hm, good thing i didn't look too closely at what the documentation says about dhcpd.conf :) |
| 12:52 Stereo | it was a bug; I fixed it here |

| 13:27 Stereo | right, I must have done something wrong on the faiserver |
| 13:29 Stereo | task_savelog gives me |
| 13:29 Stereo | Save log files via rsh to fai@faiserver:demohost/install-20081229_124740 |
| 13:29 Stereo | Permission denied. |
| Last message repeated 1 time(s). |
| 13:30 Stereo | what line have you got for the fai user in your /etc/password ? What password is it supposed to have? |
| 13:31 Stereo | in the logs, I get |
| 13:31 Stereo | Dec 29 14:30:46 Pythie pam_rhosts_auth[1317]: denied to root@demohost as fai: access not allowed |
| 13:31 Stereo | Dec 29 14:30:46 Pythie in.rshd[1317]: rsh denied to root@demohost as fai: Permission denied. |
| 13:32 Stereo | what am I doing wrong? |
| 13:32 Nic0 | You need a .rhosts in ~fai |
| 13:32 Nic0 | demohost root |
| 13:34 Stereo | echo "demohost root" > ~fai/.rhosts ? |
| 13:34 Nic0 | yep |
| 13:35 Stereo | yeah, that worked |
| 13:35 Stereo | but I already had something |
| 13:35 Stereo | +@faiclients root |
| 13:35 Stereo | how can I make that work? |
| 13:35 Nic0 | For this to work you need to add demohost to the netgroup faiclients |
| 13:37 Stereo | it sounds like it would be less complicated to use the ftp method :) |
| 13:38 Nic0 | Not necessarily, it's just adding a line to a file, on the NIS server if you use NIS netgroups |
| 13:39 Stereo | but then I need to add a line every time I configure a new host, right? |
| 13:39 Nic0 | I have never tried the ftp method, but you either need to configure an anonymous ftp server, or provide a password |
| 13:40 Nic0 | Yes, you can also add all your hostnames in the netgroup at once |
| 13:40 Stereo | I won't know them in advance |
| 13:41 Nic0 | You can try to use '+ root' in the .rhosts file |
| 13:42 Stereo | so I was thinking of writing a small script that wrote the appropriate line to the dhcpd.conf; guess it could write to that other file too |
| 13:42 Nic0 | Not very secure, and you may have to change some pam config |
| 13:42 Stereo | I just installed fai-quickstart, and it left me with that |
| 13:42 Stereo | yeah |
| 13:43 Stereo | sounds like ftp will definitely be easier |
| 13:44 Nic0 | Good luck :) |
| 13:45 Stereo | thanks :) |
| 13:47 Stereo | should FAI_FLAGS be set in fai.conf or make-fai-nfsroot.conf ? |
| 13:47 mgoetze | with fai-chboot |

| 14:44 Stereo | about those Installationszeiten in the documentation |
| 14:46 Stereo | things are going a lot slower for me on a 250G disk |
| 14:46 Stereo | it's been running mke2fs for 30 minutes |
| 14:47 Stereo | bad disk, or am I doing something wrong? |
| 14:57 Stereo | right, I'll reboot the machine |
| 14:57 Stereo | we'll see |
| 15:06 Stereo | right, mke2fs just freezes |
| 16:00 Stereo | hmm. I can find the documentation for setup-storage, but not for the 'old' system |
| 16:00 Stereo | ah, section 7.7 |
| 16:43 mgoetze | i've never seen mke2fs run for 30min |
| 16:53 Stereo | yeah, it's definitely borken |

| 17:04 juri_ | um. |
| 17:04 juri_ | i've seen it. |
| 17:05 juri_ | it will take a while when your disk controller does not have its proper driver. this wa n old fai-cd problem, before the IDE layer got 'better'. |
| 17:05 Stereo | mkfs.xfs doesn't take as long |
| 17:05 juri_ | xfs probably dosent write as much to the disk. |
| 17:06 juri_ | not all MKFSs write nd read the same ammount of data. |
| 17:06 Stereo | yeah |
| 17:06 Stereo | so since this is only a test setup, I switched the thing to xfs, and it's installing now |
