Red Hat, AD, and Winbind

I assumed you would ;) Here's the thing. Mine is blank - completely blank. This is the one thing, that a lot of instructions will tell you to put all the information you have in your krb5.conf. However, if you just leave it blank, then it automatically detects all that based on the realm you...

Red Hat, AD, and Winbind

Really? I've never had an issue with bouncing DC's. They do them one at a time, right? What is in your /etc/krb5.conf ?

Red Hat, AD, and Winbind

If you are using Red Hat, then yes. I would prefer Likewise-open, but Red Hat does not distribute it. If you want to stick with official Red Hat packages, then Winbind is your ONLY option. FYI, Ubuntu does include Likewise-open, if you consider going that route. Although to be honest, I've...

Debian Base OS on RAID 0 + RAID 5 and VirtualBox vs. ESXi

VirtualBox has gotten even better since Oracle acquired it. Since it's open source, if Oracle ever does screw it up, it will likely be forked and carry on, like LibreOffice. VirtualBox + phpvirtualbox works pretty awesome. I can't remember sources, but just in the last couple months I've seen...

Windows 2008 R2 domain can't create users with email

I never created any users in ESM. I didn't know you could do that. Is the new "standard" way to create users? ESM seems to be EMC now. Did you mean EMC (Exchange Management Console)? The only thing that changes in ADUC is that the user now has an email address filled in. None of the...

Windows 2008 R2 domain can't create users with email

Change default search in IE8 for new user

Yeah, it looks like I can use IEAK 8 to create a new installer with the customizations I want. I was hoping maybe there could just be an ini file I could edit or some registry changes. I guess I'll see how this IEAK 8 goes.

We are still standardized on XP/2003, but we are now moving to the 2010 family of products. We have "KMS" keys for the latest versions, which I just figured was a new acronym replacing "VLK" and using it as such in my testing. Until the keys stopped working. So now I see you have to set up...

Cisco switch turned off a couple ports and won't come back on

I fixed this. I should have updated this thread right away so I could have given a better description, but basically I had to enable auto-recovery for Channel-misconfig. After waiting for the default time period (5 minutes I think it was), all the ports came back on.

I haven't disabled BPDU guard (don't know how), but I have shut down the bridge (actually moved the firewall to different physical ports and disabled the bridge). I just want to get these ports back to how they were before.

That's right. Although it is not exactly my choice to do it that way and I will agree it is a bit "stupid." Although I wouldn't put it that harshly. I inherited this configuration and I'm trying to replace a 10 year old SonicWall with pfSense. The bridged networks are the internet connection...

I didn't bridge the same network. I bridged two separate vlans. There shouldn't be any other location where the vlans can talk to each other other than through the now-disabled bridge, so no loop was created. Unless I made a mistake in what I bridged, or there is a misconfiguration somewhere...

If these are server related positions, then build a server (without a gui) and, as said above, tinker with it. Set up a webserver and try pulling up the webpage from your desktop. set up a file server, mysql server, dns server, or dhcp server. I would say these are some of the most common...

redundant block device between 5 servers

Yeah, it looks like that may be the only simple solution until the next major version of drbd comes out (which supports multiple nodes, instead of just 2). The only other possibility would be to use a combination of gnbd, mdraid, and gfs, but I'm undecided if I want to go that route.

oh, well, the purpose of this is too replicate data out to sites over relatively slow lines (like 10mbit), so they don't have to read from the main server. So that won't work.

I need to synch a block device between 5 servers. Only one server will write to the block device and the other three just need to read from it. If this was only between 2 servers, drbd would be perfect, but it's my understanding that drbd will only do 2 or 3 nodes, and I need it to do 5. The...
