ramsub07 2017-02-26 23:51:55
Hi, how do i remove previously entered commands from history ?
k1l 2017-02-26 23:53:12
ramsub07: they are stored in the .bash_history in the users home
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:54:00
also the commands entered while using sudo?
k1l 2017-02-26 23:54:41
ramsub07: yes he can.
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:54:53
whats if its a she?
ramsub07 2017-02-26 23:55:01
k1l: by listing the users that exists currently ?
ramsub07 2017-02-26 23:55:31
Guest19252: i really don't want to talk feminism here. Go to appropriate channel
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:55:56
who is talking feminism?
k1l 2017-02-26 23:55:59
ramsub07: you cant hide a user from the system because the system needs to know about the users to work.
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:57:05
you dont have to hide it from the system you have to hide it from the users
ramsub07 2017-02-26 23:57:23
can i elevate the privilege and go with it without grabbing attention?
k1l 2017-02-26 23:57:37
ramsub07: they need to be in the passwd for the system to be able to work with the users
ducasse 2017-02-26 23:58:49
ramsub07: why the need to avoid attention?
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:58:56
and any user can access passwd?
ducasse 2017-02-26 23:59:04
yes
Guest19252 2017-02-26 23:59:47
why?
k1l 2017-02-26 23:59:56
Guest19252: you can easily check the permissions on your ubuntu system
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:02:05
if you need root to add remove users only root should access it
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:02:59
or at least only wheel users
causative 2017-02-27 00:04:12
my computer is way slower than it used to be on the same app 6 months ago, for no obvious reason, i.e. processor usage, memory, etc all seem ok, but it keeps graying out and freezing, what could cause this, how do I diagnose?
causative 2017-02-27 00:04:12
it's not just that particular app
k1l 2017-02-27 00:04:12
causative: you could look at "dmesg" for obvious issues
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:04:12
could you please advise?
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:04:53
wheel = user able to use sudo
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:05:21
regular users shouldnt be able to use sudo
k1l 2017-02-27 00:05:22
Guest19252: not on ubuntu
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:07:26
so all users in ubuntu can use sudo?
k1l 2017-02-27 00:07:26
and the passwd is worldreadable because it includes user account informations needed by other users. it doesnt contain the passwords. so there is no issue in that. i dont know what issue you are trying to make up here
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:07:47
regular users shouldnt be able to list other users accounts
k1l 2017-02-27 00:09:22
Guest19252: no. but dont talk about other OS setups. this is not relevant in here. ubuntu doesnt use wheel group or other setups. it uses the sudo group, which is set in sudoers file to grant all that group members sudo permissions.
k1l 2017-02-27 00:09:22
Guest19252: if you think so, remove world readable and see what breaks. have fun
craptalk 2017-02-27 00:11:03
i set the file mode by chmod 2400 file.txt, number 2 here is special permission in which i added for guid. Lets say i am running as x user, what can i be different with that file behaviour?
Guest19252 2017-02-27 00:11:17
is there any reason a user should be on the sudo group if that user isnt supposed to use sudo?
k1l 2017-02-27 00:11:50
Guest19252: no, only the first user on the system is in that sudo group. others need to be put in manually.
craptalk 2017-02-27 00:13:12
i want to the difference, cause i usually set it into 0
craptalk 2017-02-27 00:13:21
i want to know*
ikevin 2017-02-27 00:55:48
ikonia, rules can be added without enabling ufw
ikevin 2017-02-27 00:56:13
and, i want to see what i've added
ikonia 2017-02-27 00:57:01
ikevin: ahh, you mean not applying the rules
ikonia 2017-02-27 00:57:43
ikevin: the gui should list them
BluesKaj 2017-02-27 00:58:20
Howdy folks
ikevin 2017-02-27 00:58:28
ikonia, i don't have screen, it's on a server
OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:00:02

OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:00:02

OerHeks, perfect, thx :)
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:00:02

OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:00:02

ikevin 2017-02-27 01:00:08

OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:00:12

Jaset 2017-02-27 01:01:07
can someone help?
OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:01:37
Jaset, what is in that mp4? drm content?
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:01:45
OerHeks: nope
OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:02:03
does it play in google-chrome? ( not chromium)
The_Myth 2017-02-27 01:02:12
hello guys. i've been tryingo to upgrade my vps. i've done do-release-upgrade -d to upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10.. but when i've tried to upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04.2 it says: The user `syslog' is already a member of `adm'. any hints?
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:02:13
mp4 is a container, playing in browser depend of codec inside
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:02:21
OerHeks: i dont have google-chrome, im on 32bit
The_Myth 2017-02-27 01:04:06
obs: it's stuck there like almost 1h
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:04:06
Jaset, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Supported_media_formats#Browser_compatibility
hateball 2017-02-27 01:04:06
Jaset: you can get media info in VLC, tell us what codec it uses
rhumbot 2017-02-27 01:04:07
hi all, I would like to create an sftp connection, using aptana studio 3 to a webserver from 1and1 but received the error "no suitable key exchange algorithm could be agreed".
OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:04:36
Jaset, did you enable dvd playback? sometimes a mp4 is coded like dvd-drm
rhumbot 2017-02-27 01:05:13
I tried this: https://nikinuryadin.wordpress.com/2015/05/19/aptana-studio-3-sftp-key-exchange/ but it did not work ...
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:06:11
hateball: vlc is using h264 - mpeg-4 AVC (part 10)(avc1)
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:08:31
Jaset, does firefox show you an error in the dev console?
ducasse 2017-02-27 01:08:31
rhumbot: ask the developers/community, see their website for support options
OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:08:45
The_Myth, ask your vendor a fresh image, normally it is hard to upgrade vps stuff, protected
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:09:26
ikevin: it says HTML5VideoCheckLoad, true, true, undefined apparently
The_Myth 2017-02-27 01:09:28
OerHeks: that's what i've done now. waiting for an answer. Thanks :D
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:09:55
Jaset, can you share the file?
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:11:50
ikevin, the link is http://a9-19.clients.cdn13.com/006/675/6675539.mp4?cdn_creation_time=1488197280&cdn_ttl=14400&cdn_bw=150k&cdn_bw_fs=983k&cdn_cv_data=104.197.75.157-dvp&cdn_hash=655aafdafad5185608c360548c977143
hateball 2017-02-27 01:12:27

ikevin 2017-02-27 01:12:31
Jaset, it play fine in my ff
hateball 2017-02-27 01:12:43

OerHeks 2017-02-27 01:13:42
Jaset, ahh the new firefox feature, you are not 21+

ikevin 2017-02-27 01:15:35
Jaset, try to install gstreamer plugins

Jaset 2017-02-27 01:16:10
ikevin: ahhh wait
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:16:16
Jaset, see on the "network" tab of the dev tools if firefox try to download the file
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:16:22
ikevin: apparently i have gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad installed, but not gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
hateball 2017-02-27 01:17:45
Jaset: can you play something like http://distribution.bbb3d.renderfarming.net/video/mp4/bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4 ?
hateball 2017-02-27 01:17:56
that's big buck bunny, a tad more safe for work...
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:18:22
nope hateball
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:19:34
ikevin: gstreamer1.0-plugins-base is installed though, im on 16.04
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:21:48
i must remind you that i have flashblock installed, so when i open a .mp4 file, i need to allow flash to run
hateball 2017-02-27 01:22:02
It doesnt use flash
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:22:06
oO
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:22:06
a flash popup automatically comes up
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:22:28
try to disable flashblock
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:23:02
ikevin: well that was pretty simple
Jaset 2017-02-27 01:23:04
it worked
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:23:25
:)
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:23:46

Jaset 2017-02-27 01:23:50

Neural_oD, no issue, which virtual network device settings you use?
Neural_oD 2017-02-27 01:28:31
I've set up bridged networking, and if I do a lshw - I can see that the vnet(virtual) nics are reading only 10Mbit/s max
Neural_oD 2017-02-27 01:29:32
ikevin, the problem is that it appears to be a host issue. I've set the clients to use virtio
Neural_oD 2017-02-27 01:31:43
but the clients will only be able to use the max of what the host "gives"
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:34:56
Neural_oD, this append only when using bridge?
Neural_oD 2017-02-27 01:37:39
ikevin, whihc kvm command line would you like? I've set most of the client's up with virt-manager, but configured the server before
zerorax 2017-02-27 01:38:07
hi
zerorax 2017-02-27 01:38:23
where is the iptables rules files in 16.04?
ikevin 2017-02-27 01:38:30
Neural_oD, start a vm a do a "ps aux | grep qemu"
zerorax 2017-02-27 01:38:37
ufw sucks i need to go hands on for what i'm doing
Neural_oD 2017-02-27 01:40:13
kk - give me a sec
