Do people actually use HostbasedAuthentication? It needs several steps to enable and generally seems quite arcane by now. I wonder if this is something that could be trimmed away... -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy at mips.inka.de

I''ve been experimenting with Xen 3.1. My requirements are to run lots 32 bit paravirt domains on large memory hosts (8GB or more). Previously I''ve used a 32 bit Xen with PAE hypervisor which works well. However I seen from the announcement that you can use a 64 bit hypervisor and still run 32 bit PAE domains. I''ve tried this and it works as advertised! What

Was reading the long list of things being deprecated in the RHEL 8 release notes t'other day, and saw my old friend sendmail on the list. I've stuck by her because I've learned how she likes to be stroked to get the best out of her, and quail at the thought of taking on a new MTA and having to learn it all all over again. But I guess I'm going to have to, soon or late, probably

After upgradeding to bareos 15.2, which also has a web ui, thereby making it usable (since the command line tool, bconsole, does not have a paging mechanism, and its sytax for choosing files to restore is, let us say, arcane), I've got another question: is *anyone* using bareos with kerberos? I see that they have in alpha(?) tls support, which isn't a great idea, given the recent

This is a feature request for scp. scp has no easy option to copy symlinks, etc. to reproduce a directory tree. The -r option follows symlinks and reads the data out of device files when copying. A few years ago, the -a option was added to normal cp, replacing the cumbersome and arcane (cd wherever1 ; tar cf - whatever) | (cd wherever2 ; tar xpf - ) with cp -a wherever1/whatever wherever2

I recently proposed on samba-technical that for Samba 4.0, that we change security=share to have the following semantics: - All connections are made as the guest user - No passwords are required, and no other accounts are available. Naturally, full user-name/password authentication remain available in security=user and above. The rationale is that we need a very simple way to run a 'trust

Converting this customer from a MiTel system to asterisk. Discovered that the inbound calls from the T1 are going to extension 366. (This was mapped in the MiTel for some arcane purpose.) The dial plan I am currently using is shown below. When loading the dial plan, I get this warning: WARNING[5004]: pbx_config.c:1561 pbx_load_config: The use of '_.' for an extension is strongly

I am an actual end user of LLVM who builds it from source and not a developer of it so I think I have an important perspective that is not represented here. Also I am pretty sure the llvmdev mailing is heavily biased and might not reach actual end users of LLVM. I use the Autotools build system for a number of reasons. If compromises or reasonable workarounds could be found I would be okay with

First, I'll just say this is a question principally about the arcane mysteries of Samba to OpenLDAP authentication. I've had Samba to OpenLDAP authentication running for a while now using the samba.schema and the ldapsam module. Now I'd like to understand a bit more about how that works in order to take it a step further and get openLDAP to bind against a Kerberos database via

# I need to generate some data. I'm modeling some time series that follow a # negative exponential decay (mostly). I have 20 samples that can easily be fit with cubic splines. # What I want to do is generate many thousands of similar samples using the parameters from the splines # For instance one data sample looks not unlike this: foo.curve <- 1 * exp(-0.01 * 1:500) + 0.5

The changes to vorbisfile that I suggested earlier have now been committed - this is mostly a merge of my code with a similar patch from Martin Vogt (thanks Martin). The old ov_open() interface remains untouched - and for many people, this is all you'll need to use, ever. It now calls the new interface with appropriate arguments. The new ov_open_callbacks() function adds an extra argument to

Hi, I have previously used openLDAP and read many of their howto documents for establishing an LDAP server. RH and CentOS provide <brand>-ds-base and related rpms and I like what I see and read about the product. I found the wiki article on installing the rpms and getting it running on a server - so far so good. Then I fall into a big hole. What are the key items that need to be put in

I have found that order() fails in a rather arcane circumstance, as in this example: > foo <- I( c('x','\265g') ) > order(foo) Error in if (xi > xj) 1L else -1L : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed > foo <-c('x','\265g') > order(foo) [1] 1 2 > sessionInfo() R version 3.1.1 (2014-07-10) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0 (64-bit)

Greetings, This may be a bit arcane but does anyone know what the contents of a facility message should be for initiating a TBCT on an NI2 ISDN. I've been trying to get it to work on a DMS100 for the last four months to no avail. The message I am currently sending makes it to the switch but is returned with unknown message. Perhaps someone here has done it before and can help me out.

Just a quick question... I've been attempting to trap floating point badness by setting up a SIGFPE handler. However, I'm not seeing it trigger, even for simple test code that forces division by zero. I'm generating bitcode with llvm-gcc and then executing it with a (modified) version of the jitter, for reference. Is there any arcane magic necessary to turn on SIGFPE

Hello! I have upgraded a Samba 3 NT DC instance to a Samba 4.1.7 AD DC. The update created an user called 'DOMAIN/Administrator' which is supposed to be the new uber-'root' for the AD domain. Now i just discovered using a W7 box that the local administrator user of this box (which is called 'Administrator', too) can do all the things the 'DOMAIN/Administrator'

I've been getting these in my log for some time and was wondering what I had to do to get 'pam_winbind' to 'work' with my samba 'DC'? In looking around the net, others w/this error message were having a problem with blocking login's and password changes, completely. In my case, I have the 'pam_winbind.so' module in '/etc/pam.d/common-passwd' setup
