IRC [08:10] <redbrick> hey, anybody there?
IRC [08:21] <redbrick> doesn't seem so...
IRC [09:33] <Dossy> ?
IRC [09:37] <redbrick> hi
IRC [09:38] <redbrick> do u use the VAT module?
IRC [09:38] <redbrick> i can't configure it to let aolserver handle my 90 domains :-/

IRC [15:18] <Peaceful> How does aolserver know where to look for nsperm files?
IRC [15:25] <Peaceful> or more to the point, how do I find out where aolserver expects the nsperm files to be so that I can place my nsperm files there?
IRC [15:26] <Peaceful> I'm trying out an installation on Gentoo, and everything seems to be scattered all over the place.
IRC [15:30] <Peaceful> I know that it's supposed to be in .../modules/nsperm
IRC [15:30] <Peaceful> I've tried /etc/aolserver/modules/nsperm (which is created by default on gentoo)
IRC [15:31] <Peaceful> I've also tried /var/aolserver/modules/nsperm since the ssl certs are placed in /var/aolserver/etc/certs
IRC [15:32] <Peaceful> ...and /var/aolserver/etc/modules/nsperm
IRC [15:37] <Dossy> no idea about gentoo -- sorrry.
IRC [15:37] <Dossy> Where's the modules/tcl directory?
IRC [15:38] <Dossy> /etc/aolserver/modules/nsperm sounds reasonable: how are you testing?
IRC [15:43] <Peaceful> testing by restarting aolserver and trying to access a directory that requires you to log in with a specific user and password
IRC [15:44] <Peaceful> I copied the entire nsperms directory from my production server, so the files themselves should be fine
IRC [15:44] <Peaceful> I restart my browser each time to make sure nothing is cached

IRC [16:05] <Peaceful> ... /etc/aolserver/servers/server1/modules/nsperm doesn't work either
IRC [16:08] <Dossy> weird.
IRC [16:09] <Dossy> look at aolserver startup in server log: where does it say it's looking?
IRC [16:09] <Peaceful> It doesn't say
IRC [16:09] <Peaceful> I would have put it there!
IRC [16:09] <Dossy> It doesn't complain that it couldn't open the perms file, etc?
IRC [16:09] <Peaceful> nope
IRC [16:10] <Peaceful> only perms-related line is: [04/Oct/2005:14:05:58][26363.16384][-main-] Notice: modload: loading '/usr/lib/aolserver/bin/nsperm.so'
IRC [16:10] <Peaceful> ...and /usr/lib/aolserver/modules/nsperm doesn't work either
IRC [16:11] <Dossy> Hm.
IRC [16:11] <Peaceful> aha!
IRC [16:11] <Dossy> Connect to your control port.
IRC [16:11] <Dossy> what does [ns_info home] say?
IRC [16:11] <Peaceful> found it
IRC [16:11] <Dossy> heh.
IRC [16:12] <Peaceful> /usr/lib/aolserver/servers/server1/modules/nsperm
IRC [16:12] <Peaceful> That was painful
IRC [16:13] <Dossy> heh.
IRC [16:13] <Dossy> if you have "locate" and "updatedb" running on your system, you could have just done "locate nsperm" :)
IRC [16:13] <Dossy> or "locate nsperm | grep modules"
IRC [16:23] <Peaceful> no, I had to create the whole file structure from ..servers/server1/modules/nsperm
IRC [16:30] *** bartt joined the chat.
IRC [16:33] <Peaceful> slocate is what turned up the existing /etc/aolserver/modules/nsperm. I'll go dutifully report that bug to gentoo...
