Feb 14 05:20:09 2016 * guruthree (8c7a6df0@gateway/web/freenode/ip.140.122.109.240) has joined #armagetron
Feb 14 05:20:16 2016 <guruthree> Lucifer_arma: there?
Feb 14 05:20:32 2016 <Lucifer_arma> guruthree: there
Feb 14 05:20:40 2016 <guruthree> right
Feb 14 05:20:53 2016 <guruthree> so, awkward moment on my part
Feb 14 05:21:04 2016 <guruthree> i'm travelling and stuck without ssh
Feb 14 05:21:24 2016 <Lucifer_arma> ah, no worries, seriously. You're still doing the conference thing, or headed home?
Feb 14 05:21:26 2016 <guruthree> which means that I can't actually restore the forums at the moment, as much as I would like to
Feb 14 05:21:35 2016 <guruthree> I'm on my post-conference travel
Feb 14 05:21:50 2016 <guruthree> i.e., vacation
Feb 14 05:22:07 2016 <Lucifer_arma> ah
Feb 14 05:22:17 2016 * Lucifer_arma is having difficulty figuring out how to offer ssh, heh
Feb 14 05:22:39 2016 <guruthree> basically I'd need something like a secure anyterm server
Feb 14 05:22:48 2016 <Lucifer_arma> you're probably going to need your key or something anyway
Feb 14 05:22:48 2016 <guruthree> which had I been clever I would have setup in advance
Feb 14 05:23:01 2016 <guruthree> there's a chance I could make do with a SOCKS proxy
Feb 14 05:23:16 2016 <guruthree> but I suspect the connection I'm on is a transparent proxy
Feb 14 05:23:35 2016 <guruthree> making that a no go, I think
Feb 14 05:24:28 2016 <Lucifer_arma> "For a small charge you can use our Anyterm installation to connect to your own systems."
Feb 14 05:24:49 2016 <guruthree> yeah, but I'd much rather run my own setup/use someone's that I know
Feb 14 05:25:35 2016 <guruthree> I'm a little paranoid about shoving passwords essentially plaintext even through HTTPS
Feb 14 05:25:51 2016 <guruthree> http://dag.wiee.rs/howto/ssh-http-tunneling/
Feb 14 05:25:52 2016 <dbdbot> Title: DAG: Tunneling SSH over HTTP(S) (at dag.wiee.rs)
Feb 14 05:25:55 2016 <guruthree> something like that might work
Feb 14 05:26:53 2016 <Lucifer_arma> I don't know if I can get one setup quickly enough. Hell, I'm not even sure my server's still running. I keep forgetting to pay the bill.
Feb 14 05:27:00 2016 <Lucifer_arma> I'm up to like $11 or so.
Feb 14 05:27:38 2016 <guruthree> I was hoping it'd be something z-man could put on his VPS temporarily
Feb 14 05:27:46 2016 * z-man has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
Feb 14 05:27:50 2016 <guruthree> heh
Feb 14 05:28:22 2016 <guruthree> it might be as simple really as running an SSH server on port 80
Feb 14 05:28:30 2016 <guruthree> that'd actually probably be the easiest thing to check
Feb 14 05:28:40 2016 <guruthree> it's just I'm on the wrong side of the firewall for it all
Feb 14 05:29:45 2016 <guruthree> I'm really kicking myself for not thinking of this scenario before I left
Feb 14 05:31:14 2016 <Lucifer_arma> well, I could make a user for you real quick on my server, turn off apache, and move sshd to port 80
Feb 14 05:31:27 2016 <Lucifer_arma> then you could ssh to my server, and then bounce to yours
Feb 14 05:31:43 2016 * z-man (~quassel@p54A1F4C9.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has joined #armagetron
Feb 14 05:31:50 2016 <guruthree> that sounds feasible
Feb 14 05:32:02 2016 <guruthree> provided of course the firewall or whatever here lets it through
Feb 14 05:32:07 2016 <Lucifer_arma> lemme do the server changes first.
Feb 14 05:32:21 2016 <Lucifer_arma> does it check past tcp to make sure it's actual http happening?
Feb 14 05:32:29 2016 <guruthree> I have no idea
Feb 14 05:32:35 2016 <Lucifer_arma> I mean, you can come here using the web interface....
Feb 14 05:32:37 2016 <guruthree> before bothering to setup a user account, just do the server port
Feb 14 05:32:46 2016 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, I was going to do that ;)
Feb 14 05:32:51 2016 <guruthree> if I can't get it to prompt for a password there's no point
Feb 14 05:32:53 2016 <guruthree> ><

Feb 14 05:34:02 2016 <dbdbot> Title: SSH via HTTP Nurdletech (at www.nurdletech.com)
Feb 14 05:34:20 2016 <Lucifer_arma> how do you change the port the client tries to connect with?
Feb 14 05:34:24 2016 <guruthree> that feels like a cleaner explanation
Feb 14 05:34:35 2016 <guruthree> ssh -p number hostname
Feb 14 05:34:42 2016 <Lucifer_arma> ah, got it
Feb 14 05:34:53 2016 <Lucifer_arma> ummm, now why isn't my sshd at that port?
Feb 14 05:35:04 2016 <guruthree> need to restart the service?
Feb 14 05:35:55 2016 <Lucifer_arma> ok, see if you can connect
Feb 14 05:35:59 2016 <Lucifer_arma> www.davefancella.com port 80
Feb 14 05:36:17 2016 <guruthree> yes that's working
Feb 14 05:36:26 2016 <Lucifer_arma> now, how do I make a user with the commandline? ;)
Feb 14 05:36:52 2016 <guruthree> useradd
Feb 14 05:37:19 2016 <Lucifer_arma> this web page is telling me to do adduser
Feb 14 05:37:24 2016 <Lucifer_arma> the two are synonymous, right?
Feb 14 05:37:26 2016 <z-man> both work
Feb 14 05:37:32 2016 <z-man> slightly different
Feb 14 05:37:40 2016 <guruthree> hurrah! it's z-man!
Feb 14 05:37:54 2016 <z-man> yeah, I got my laptop patched back together.
Feb 14 05:38:08 2016 <guruthree> I think adduser is the older less happy version?
Feb 14 05:38:37 2016 <z-man> Running Ubuntu 12.04 with the OS graphics driver. Holds together for now. suspend does not work, but hibernate. Good enough for now.
Feb 14 05:39:49 2016 <Lucifer_arma> heh, I'm on Kubuntu 12.04 right now
Feb 14 05:39:54 2016 <Lucifer_arma> waiting for 14.04 before I upgrade
Feb 14 05:39:56 2016 <guruthree> gentoo
Feb 14 05:41:12 2016 <guruthree> updated as of about 3 weeks ago
Feb 14 05:41:20 2016 <guruthree> thanks Lucifer_arma, I'm in
Feb 14 05:41:26 2016 <Lucifer_arma> roger that
Feb 14 05:41:50 2016 <Lucifer_arma> I was on an off version of Ubuntu, and I kept forgetting regular updates, then I had to the pain in the ass version of updating using the obsolete repositories
Feb 14 05:41:54 2016 <guruthree> now to route to my vps

Feb 14 06:07:04 2016 <guru3> ok, I have an ssh window out into the world
Feb 14 06:07:13 2016 <guru3> thanks Lucifer_arma
Feb 14 06:07:36 2016 <Lucifer_arma> no problem. are they up again, then?
Feb 14 06:07:53 2016 <guru3> no, it took me that long just to sort out the best quick hack to get ssh to my vps
Feb 14 06:08:20 2016 <Lucifer_arma> oh. er, you could just go straight there from my server?
Feb 14 06:08:25 2016 * guruthree has quit (Quit: :))
Feb 14 06:08:29 2016 <Lucifer_arma> *couldn't
Feb 14 06:09:00 2016 <guru3> possibly
Feb 14 06:10:47 2016 <guru3> but this is easier then in terms of ssh keys
Feb 14 06:12:06 2016 <guru3> z-man: are you still here?
Feb 14 06:12:50 2016 <z-man> yes
Feb 14 06:14:08 2016 <z-man> guru3: and even if not, I can probably read what you write later whenever I appear online.
Feb 14 06:15:09 2016 <guru3> I believe I've just invited you and Lucifer_arma to a new channel
Feb 14 06:18:05 2016 <z-man> guru3: I don't see an invite, could be because I'm stupid
Feb 14 06:18:17 2016 <guru3> grr
Feb 14 06:18:24 2016 <guru3> stupid irc clients
Feb 14 06:18:27 2016 <guru3> join #armaconf
Feb 14 06:18:39 2016 <Lucifer_arma> you have to look at Kubuntu IRC to see it
Feb 14 06:18:49 2016 <Lucifer_arma> you know, where the freenode server messages come from
Feb 14 06:19:17 2016 <z-man> Ah.

is a site that has tools, maps, and other various items. It orignally only existed as a server control panel, but I slowly began adding stuff such as a homepage and tools.
