Oct 15, 2009I can not open the corporate intranet portal, runnnig on windows server 2008 with domain users. In Centos I could login just fine - firefox/konqueror just prompted me for my NTLM windows domain username and password - I typed those in and browers sucessfully loggem me in and I could surf the corporate portal. Note that NTLM authentication is configured as a fallback from kerberos authentication (so told me our portal admin)
However, in Fedora11 when I try to open the corporate (intra(not inter)net) portal, browsers just give me "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)" error instead of prompting me for my domain username/password. I'm logged in on my F11 box as a local (not domain) user - as I did also previously on Centos Box.
I disabled SELinux, I disabled the firewall but still no luck. Not being able to open the corporate portal is a major showstopper for me, as I can not access many applications hosted there.
Ubuntu :: Corporate Network With Remote Authentication
May 20, 2010Migrating whole Corporate Windows stations to Ubuntu which is a huge thing so I'd like to do it right and as painless as possible to users.
Here's how it's done now: Main server are already running Linux for years with DHCP, DNS, IMAP, Postgres and SAMBA.
Windows machines are part of Samba PDC and when user logs in, Windows connects to the user profile on Samba server. When user logs out and logs to another computer, he/she has the same files and settings. Basically, nothing is held on local stations.
All printers on the network are printers with network cards, so they are not attached to any computer. The right printer is set with cmd script when user logs in, which makes it possible to make other printer as default if one is faulty.
Ubuntu Security :: 10.04 - Corporate UCM And Password Policies
Sep 27, 2010I am currently reviewing what it means to switch over to Ubuntu and I have the following scenario. If I was to switch all the windows servers over to an Ubuntu solution. I already understand that file servers/ mail servers and resources can be provided Ubuntu 10.04. The issue comes with the user accounts access and control. In a windows environment, I have a domain with sub domain sites. I am able to control passwords in each site separately thought Active directory. I need the instructions on how to setup an LDAP server so that I can control access rights to different services located on different servers.
Example 1.
I have 5 mail servers and on the HR side, I have 2 email administrators. I wish to provide them access to only the relevant resources centrally. With out having to add users to different users repeatedly. For example, if I wanted to grant the two administrators access to all five servers. As I understand it, I would have to create the same user on every server and add a public key on every server, as well as set the administration rights for that user on each server individually.
I want to be capable of doing this like I am in a windows environment from some sort of domain controller equivalent. Things that I must be able to do, manage users public keys on each server centrally. Add and remove user's access to each server centrally. Finite control on what each user can do on each server. (i.e., add them to the sudo group or any other group for specific servers/server class I specify). To a lesser extent of requirement, I also need to be able to inform users they have to change there password every 3 months from when they change it. As well as enforce password rules, such as characters complication.
Ubuntu :: Setup A Corporate Server That Will Bond 5 Pci Lan Cards Into One
Mar 11, 2010The project is to setup a corporate server that will bond 5 pci lan cards into one! The scope is to connect 5 ADSL routers and compine the speeds of all of them.
So i would have 5 routers each 2mbit ADSL would result on a 10mbit connection.
The problem is not only that.
Because this is a corporate network the server MUST also act as a router. This is necessary because people are remotely connecting from e.g. their homes to the network.
if this can be done with a Linux server or it is not feasilbe at all?
Networking :: Allow Multiple Users In Several Countries To Access One Corporate File Depository
Oct 9, 2010I am looking for solution that would allow multiple users distributed over several offices in several countries to access one corporate file depository. The features I am looking for, are as follows:
- There should be the way to establish user groups and then define for each folder access level (read/write) for every user/group. Every users is given his login and password.
- This file depository should be accessed from both Linux and Windows clients
- There should be a way how to sync certain folders/files on one's PC so that it is possible to work off-line and then sync back to the common depository.
Then I plan to launch some regular backup routine on that folder where all the files of depository are kept. I can imagine that the solution could be involving several tools, ie access for Windows users might involve setting up samba server, but I don't know how to establish all the limited access stuff for Win clients via samba.
Ubuntu Networking :: Corporate Network Login - Dont Provide Root Access
Sep 26, 2010In my company, they provide linux machines which has a 4 yr old Gentoo linux. Also the OS is loaded through Yukon PXE/netboot environment, and the users directory is mounted from an network location. Also they dont provide root access in these machines.
I would love to use the latest Ubuntu in this machine. Please let me know if it is possible to configure a ubuntu/xubuntu in this machine. I need to be able to login with my corporate user_id/passwd, because many of the tools use this for authentication. so just doing a ubuntu installation in this machine and mounting the n/w location would not help.

Sep 26, 2010I often get responses from people who first say: "Are you sure? You want your network to be exposed to the outside world?" I am not experimenting on a Production Server of NASA or any Security Concern Department. Friends, there is no harm in experimenting on your personal computer or on a test computer which is isolated from the production environment. Look at hackers! What do they do? If they don't know how security is breached then how would they come up with security measures?
If my question reads... "How to let any user perform Administrative Tasks on a Linux System irrespective of his/her privileges on that particular system?" then I would not get the right answers in the first place. They will say... "You are letting everyone destroy your system... are you sure you want to do that?" My question is: Why should we restrict ourselves from experimenting even if it sounds weird to other people?
I give you an example where it is desirable to let an unprivileged user perform certain tasks. You want to know if there are any employees in your office who are storing videos in their home directory and filling up the disk space to a great amount. You have a department called "Command Center or Data Center Operations or Help Desk" call it whatever you would, whose work is to monitor such activities, and you create an account "monitor" for them to monitor such activities but they are not able to do them:

General :: Recover Raid - LVM On Non System Drives After System Failure
Jan 19, 2011I have (had) Debian Testing running on a 250GB IDE hard drive, partitioned normally.
I also have 4x 1TB drives in a raid 5 using mdadm, and 2x 500GB drives in a raid 1 also with mdadm.
I put the two arrays in lvm using:
I then used "lvcreate" to make storage/backup 300GB, and the rest went to storage/media (approx. 2TB usable). I put an xfs filesystem on both and mounted them.
All was working fine until the system drive shorted out and died on me this morning. As far as I can tell, all my other drives and everything else is fine. I do a daily rsnapshot of the filesystem, which of course is residing on storage/backup (stupid, I know). So I have full backups of everything, but I'll have to put a new hard drive in and reinstall Debian before I can restore everything.
I've reinstalled before and simply reassembled mdadm arrays and remounted them before with no problems, but this is the first time I've used lvm, so I'm not sure what I have to do to restore everything. Is it as simple as reinstalling the system then doing a:

View 14 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Install :: Moving A Moderately Complex System From An Old System To A New System
Sep 25, 2010My problem is that I need to move a moderately complex system from an old system to a new system. The old system is a core 2 duo running on an asus p5k-se (p35 chipset) M/B, Nvidia 8500 gt, 3 x sata II hard disks, 1 x sata dvd, 1 x ide hd, 4GB ram. It runs opensuse 11.1 kde 4 as a desktop system + samba server, apache server, database server + other non-opensuse software. In addition some of the opensuse software is not the default 11.1 versions as later versions were required. The nvidia driver is from the nvidia repo. There are several file systems, some under LVM.
The new system will be a core5 760, asus p7p55d-e M/b (p55 chipset), nvidia 240, 3 x sata II HD, 1 x sata dvd, 4GB ram and possibly 1 x ide HD. This M/B also includes USB 3 & sata III. I have no USB 3 devices but this may eventually change. I have no plans for sata III and believe that it may be better to attach any sata III SSD to the sata II bus.
What I would like to do is to move the hard disks from old system to the new system. What I would like to know is, if the system is left at 11.1, is the system likely to work with the new hardware. If the answer is no, if the system was upgraded to 11.3, would the transfer of the hard disks then work? In order to upgrade from 11.1 to 11.3 using the DVD i believe I should get rid of all non-default repos. I assume that I should also get rid of anything that was installed from them, e.g. the nvidia driver and any software versions installed manually outside RPM. Also is there any default 11.1 software that should be removed either before or after the upgrade to 11.3

Feb 27, 2011My system decided to crash on me, hard. It was humming along happily for about 2 months and now doesn't boot. If I boot from hard-disk, I get grub. Launching the first kernel choice hangs. I thought maybe the install was corrupt, so I booted from usb install disk. The usb hdd didn't boot; something about an error trying to access /dev/sda . Unplugging the internal disk and plugging in the usb install disk does result in the system booting. Plugging in the internal disk in a running system usb-booted system does not result in the system detecting the disk.
How do I know if the disk is physically broken? This seems unlikely since it does manage to launch grub consistently. Or is this still possible? How can I try to mount whatever is left? The usb install disk doesn't even list the /dev/sd*. Any pointers on how to reformat the drive if it's not being mounted?
