Hi, I plan to reorganise our IP management and I'd like to implement a slave DHCP server. Right now we assign IP addresses based on the ethernetadress of a client 1:1. The tutorial here [1] is simple and looks like the thing I need. I do have a lot of subnetworks and my cisco router has an DHCP helper address set. I know I'll have to add the second dhcp-server address. My questions now

Hallo, *<:-) may be I'm to tired to see the solution, maybe someone can give me a hint? I do have a couple of servers, sending the daily logwatch report to a central support email account.

Hi, some time a go I started to try a migration form our "old" samba PDC with smbpasswd user backend to a new ldap based. I got to the point, that users can login to shares and now I'd liked to set up the server as an PDC with ldap and machine accounts too. The smbldap-toosl are installed and configured and I can add a machine to ldap to a certain point. The ldap entry is

Hello G?tz, grep yourself ldapadmin to administrate samba3 http://ldapadmin.sourceforge.net. What means to a certain point? You must add the machines on your centosbox to samba/ldap with the smbldap-tools (This never worked with my version). I did it with ldapadmin.

Hi, is there any way to sum and limit quotas for one user across multiple filesystems? E.g. I'd like to use different mountpoints on a mailserver for /var/mail and /home but the user should have only a total of 1GB. or on a samba server the windows profile files should be on an other filesystem as other files for that user.

Hi, recently I had to shut down an iscsi-raid an the connected servers. After the reinstallation and changing the ip config to match our new lan design, I can login to the iscsi device, the volumes are there and I can establish an iscsi link to some volumes. But, some other volumes on the iscsi device are reported with an invalid partition table or that they can't be mounted. e.g.: fdisk

I know, that "bon.aqua: coke, pepsi" will forward the mails to coke and pepsi, Cheers, G?tz -- G?tz Reinicke IT-Koordinator
