Plan to use W2K PDC and a couple of Samba 2.2.8 file servers. Has anyone used the preconfigured templates that are shipped with W2K server(basicdc.inf, securedc.inf) on their PDC? Gotchas? Landmines? Necessary Modifications? Hudson __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Platinum - Watch CBS' NCAA March Madness, live on your desktop! http://platinum.yah...

...bit for VT-d IR in Jailhouse) and doing this per platform (AMD IOMMU, ARM SMMU, ...) is out of scope for us. In that sense, generic grant tables would be more appealing. But what we would actually need is an interface that is only *optionally* configured by a guest for dynamic scenarios, otherwise preconfigured by the hypervisor for static setups. And we need guests that support both. That's the challenge. Jan -- Siemens AG, Corporate Technology, CT RTC ITP SES-DE Corporate Competence Center Embedded Linux

All, I'm trying to setup a network with some virtual machines, that can connect to each other and to the internet, but neither to the host nor to other VMs. Is there any preconfigured network filter or best-practice for this setup? Of course, I could setup iptables rules on the host, but I'd prefer libvirt to handle them. - Chris

Hello fellow Wine users, im having some issues and would love some pointers on how to fix this. For some unknown reason, my Ubuntu wont let me download Adobe or Java. So I cant watch videos, or play flash games. I get this error when I try to download Adobe: The installation or removal of a software package failed installArchives() failed: dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: unable to

Hi, On my public servers, I usually run BIND for DNS. I see CentOS offers a preconfigured (sort of) bind-chroot package. I wonder what's the effective benefit of this vs. a "normal" BIND setup without chroot. On my Slackware servers, I have a rather Keep-It-Simple approach to all things security, e. g. run no unneed services, open only needed ports etc. but I don't run...

Hi, This might be a silly question: which would be the best inode ratio for a 5 Tb filesystem dedicated to Maildir++ storage? I use ubuntu server, which has a preconfigured setting for mkfs.ext4 called "news" with inode_ratio = 4096, and after formating the fs with that setting and then with the defautl setting I see this difference of space (wasted space, but more inodes): 4328633696 free 1K-blocks with mkfs's "-T news" switch = 1219493877 fr...

It seems you are not compiling against the preconfigured linux headers otherwise the headers_install wouldn't fail. -- maks

...ough the underlying qemu command has this option. It appears that each time guestfish tries to connect to iSCSI LUN, a randomly generated initiator iqn is being used. This is preventing guestfish to connect to the iSCSI target in our environment as the target allows incoming connection based on the preconfigured initiator iqn. Is there way to set iSCSI initiator iqn with guestfish command? Regards Raghu
