    [ubuntu] Re: IPv6 setup

    The IPv6 routing doesn't have to follow your IPv4 routing in any way. I'd suggest you start off by routing the whole /64 IPv6 network to all hosts. This is the simplest and easiest to set up while...

    Re: Best way to backup Ubuntu home server

    I've moved a hard drive with Ubuntu installed from an old computer to a new one several times. It has always worked, with some minor adjustments to network interfaces at times. Overall a very smooth...

    Re: Can /boot size be increased?

    It looks to me like you could combine the sdi1 and sdi2 partitions to give yourself a little more headroom. This would require saving the contents of both partitions somewhere else, deleting both...
  4. [SOLVED] Re: After replacing motherboard (fried) can you somehow reconnect to OS on hard drive

    As long as your BIOS is set to boot from the hard drives, they should boot up just like before. This assumes that you don't have an exotic boot configuration, of course. I've upgraded my CPU, RAM,...
  5. Re: OpenVPN starting at boot but not working for programs in X

    Your routing table looks messed up to me. Two default gateways is generally an error in configuration, unless you're doing something with load-balancing. These two lines look suspicious, like the...

    [SOLVED] Re: Problem with web provider

    You could also run two continuous pings: one to the router's internal interface and one to a system on the Internet. If your pings start dropping to the Internet, but work to the router's interface,...
  7. [SOLVED] Re: 16.10 systemd-resolved - want to disable IPv6?

    Have you also restarted systemd-resolved? I imagine a reboot at this point may allow all open IPv6 sockets to be released, then prevented at the next boot.

    Re: bash script string compare

    Quotes are your friend in shell scripting world. Yes, you must use them on all variables containing spaces (in most use cases). Like I said, you should be quoting ALL variables in most use cases, not...
  10. Re: Snappy Core, Raspberry Pi3, static ip with WiFi

    I've never used snappy core before, but maybe somebody else on the forum has. I'd guess that you configure all networks settings, including static IP addresses and Wi-Fi, via the network config file...
  11. [SOLVED] Re: 16.10 systemd-resolved - want to disable IPv6?

    Did you reboot or run a sysctl command after editing /etc/sysctl.conf? Did you edit /etc/sysctl.conf or /etc/sysctrl.conf (seems like you may have mistyped the name in your post, but maybe you...
  12. Re: OpenVPN starting at boot but not working for programs in X

    How are you running the programs (SSH, VNC, plain old X client/server)? Are you connecting to a system across the Internet or in your home LAN?

    Your VPN IP address doesn't take over and become the...

    Re: bash script string compare

    val2 has a space in it, which causes the compare to fail unless you wrap it in quotes. The '>' operator is binary: it accepts two (and only two) arguments, one on each side of it, and returns either...

    Would you like to share information that will help fix the problem? I understand the need to vent your frustrations, but this forum is for technical support, not emotional support :D
  15. Re: Recommended brand that will work out COTB on Ubuntu - Network Attached Storage (N

    The protocols used for connecting to a NAS are pretty standard. For Ubuntu, you'll probably use NFS or Samba to connect shares served by the NAS. I'm confident that one or both are offered by all...

    No option for "beta of the upcoming release"? ;)

    Does the keyboard still work on another computer? Switching a functional keyboard between computers should have absolutely no effect on either the computer or the keyboard. That's why they made them...

    Re: Policy Routing with VLANs

    Yes, you're interpreting the output correctly (or at least the same way I'm interpreting it :) ).

    I've reviewed a few tutorials on this and I can tell you're on the right path. There's just...

    Re: Policy Routing with VLANs

    Does "ip route get 8.8.8.8 dev eth0.20" show you the right route?

    I find it odd that the route table wouldn't already have a route for the interface, since it has an address in the subnet. I...

    Re: Policy Routing with VLANs

    Does the vlan20 table need a route for the local subnet? Without that I presume it would act strange, kinda like what you're seeing with the ARP traffic for remote hosts.

    [server] Re: Rsync limit directories

    Could you create a separate account on the Linux box for each user? This would grant each user his own backup space, without privileges to read/write other users' data.
  23. [ubuntu] Re: Trying to understand changing directories in the terminal

    You can get back to the previous directory you were in with this command:

    cd -

    Changing directories isn't harmful. It's what you do when you're in a directory that might be harmful.

    If...

  25. Re: How can I make Ubuntu really check for updates every day?

    If cron isn't set to check while the computer is awake then the job is skipped. You'll need to adjust any cron job to run while the computer is expected to be running. You could also use a script to...
