mulbahHello12:52
mulbahGood morning Mr. Cole12:59
mulbahHow are you doing13:00
ubuntouristHullo! I'm doing well. How are you?13:00
mulbahI'm doing great13:01
ubuntouristSo, are we expecting your comrades, or are we "flying solo" again today?13:01
mulbahlet wait small to see if they will show up13:03
ubuntouristHave you been able to discuss Monday's experiments and lesson with them? And, have you practiced any of it?13:04
mulbahYeah I practiced but I wasn't able to experiments Monday's lesson with than because we didn't get to see13:06
ubuntouristI wanted to start with a quiz:13:09
mulbahokay13:10
ubuntouristIf something is wrong with a file "/etc/lvm/lvm.conf" how would you report the bug (and what is it used for)?13:12
ubuntouristStart up "ssh" and share. I'll watch while you explore...13:13
mulbahssh RAgHuDygHztjfb7kZEABYBHRw@lon1.tmate.io13:13
ubuntouristSo first check to see if the file that I say has a problem. (By the way, it does not have a problem, but for our example, we will pretend that it does.)13:18
ubuntouristI meant to write "So first, check to see if the file that I say has a problem is present on your machine.)13:19
ubuntouristStop.13:21
ubuntouristWithout doing any more typing, what can you tell me about what is on your screen now? 13:21
ubuntouristHint: Part of what is on the screen helps answer part of the question.13:22
ubuntouristExplain, line by line, why you typed the commands you typed. What did you want them to do? And what can you determine from the ressponse to each command?13:25
ubuntourist(You typed four lines. Only one of them was the right first step. The other three are unnecessary, and one of thos three is not even a correct command.)13:28
*** mulbah has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)13:31
ubuntourist...And lt looks like the connection is completely and hopelessly bollocksed... Bother.13:44
ubuntourist🎜 Should I stay or should I go now? ... So come on and let me know. Should I stay or should I go? 🎝 😉13:47
ubuntourist("Should I Stay or Should I Go" -- written and performed by The Clash)13:48
ubuntouristI'm just going to leave the quiz as a homework problem:13:50
ubuntouristYou are a systems administrator. Someone has told you that something is wrong with a file 13:50
ubuntouristnamed  "/etc/lvm/lvm.conf". Your mission: Find out about the file and any package it is associated with. (The package13:51
ubuntouristmight not be on your computer. Maybe it's on the server. Find out if it exists. Find out which package it belongs to.13:52
ubuntouristFind out more about the package. What other files does the package contain? And finally, find out where13:53
ubuntouristyou would report bugs, file issues, or contact someone for help.13:53
ubuntouristYou do NOT need to understand everything about the package. (The description of the package probably13:55
ubuntouristwon't mean anything to you at this time. Don't worry too much about that. But, when you're asking for help, it will13:56
ubuntouristbe helpful to be able to refer to the description and maybe get little ideas and small understanding from it.13:57
ubuntouristAll of the pieces you need will be from Monday's lesson.13:57
*** mulbah has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)14:31
mulbahHello Mr. Cole I am so sorry I was network problem 14:41
mulbah*It was network problem*14:43
*** mulbah07_ has quit (Remote host closed the connection)14:46
ubuntouristI sent e-mail. A homework problem based on the above IRC conversation.14:47
ubuntouristmulbah, see the e-mail message.14:47
ubuntouristAlso, one simple command:14:48
ubuntouristscript14:48
ubuntouristIf you type "script"14:48
ubuntouristthe terminal will record everything from your terminal until you type "exit" 14:49
ubuntouristWhen you type "exit" all of your output will be saved in a file named "typescript"14:50
ubuntouristYou can then review the contents of your session by looking at that file.14:50
*** mulbah07_ has quit (Remote host closed the connection)14:50
*** mulbah has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)14:51
ubuntourist(It will have some strange characters in it because those characters are used to clear the screen or change text color.)14:51
mulbah07_Mr. Cole sorry for the day oo15:02
mulbah07_the network connection in my country is crazy15:07
*** mulbah07_ has quit (Remote host closed the connection)15:14
ubuntouristSee e-mail when you can. I sent two messages: One with the homework and one explaining the "script" and "scriptreplay" commands.15:15
ubuntouristExperiment with those two commands to see what they do. And when you are finished experimenting, you can delete the15:16
ubuntouristtypescript and playback files.15:16
ubuntouristI'm going to run and do other things this morning, because the network is being horrible.15:17
ubuntouristIf you attach the typescript and playback files from your experiments in e-mail, I will be able to see what you tried.15:17
ubuntouristBye for today.15:18
