There is a reason most NMS systems used SNMP in the past and REST apis past 7+ years. They don't use CLIs except toy Expect type scripts.. Not just security but better error handling and more.

Al like any open-source or free sofware you need to put the leg work into what you want it to be. My company is actually creating something using TINC and we believe in it. If successful we'll be giving back to TINC monetarily in a big way to make TINC even better so if TINC isn't for you keep an eye on further developments in the future.

I was wondering about general stability of glusterfs on 32 bit x86 Linux. I have it running without problems on some lightly used 32 bit systems, but this scares me a bit if I decided to use it in production[1]: While the 3.x versions of Gluster will compile on 32bit systems we do not QA or test on 32-bit systems. We strongly suggest you do NOT run Gluster in a 32-bit environment. I was

Just search online why in general that is insecure via CLI vs programmatic for first class automation.. there is a reason why snmp, rest, ... exist.

Programmatic management with first class APIs is preferred for larger deployments..

I have a share with a couple of symlinked files in it. On a Samba server, it looks like this for "addon" directory: # ls -l (...) acrobatreader7 (...) addon -> /home/samba/unattended-write/packages Now, if I mount it on a Linux client using smbmount, symlinks point to non existing directories locally (/home/samba/unattended-write/packages exist only on a Samba server): #

I have a strange issue with Brother MFC-5440CN printer. When I print from Linux/CUPS, it prints colours fine. When I print from Windows, using Windows drivers (without Samba), it also prints fine. When I print from Windows through Samba/CUPS (drivers added using cupsaddsmb...), it gives me wrong colours: expected | result -------------------- yellow | blue blue | red red | green

Hello ! If anybody want`s to implement the psexec unix port or samba equivalent, maybe taking a look at xCmd from Zoltan Csizmadia at http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/I-N/network/remoteinvocation/article.php/c5433/ may help a LOT and is a very good example. (This one seems to work similar like psexec - but it is available with sourcecode!) I don`t know if the author is still reachable via this

For some reason, I'm unable to transfer *sometimes*, *some* files from a Windows server running rsyncd. 1. First, a try that succeeds - I want to copy "backup" directory, which is in "share": $ rsync --partial --dry-run -a -v --progress rsync://user@server/share/backup /tmp Password: receiving file list ... 30 files to consider backup/ backup/acls-c.bat.txt

I'm running Samba 3.0.23c on Debian-arm (unstable), kernel 2.6.18. I can copy files from the Samba server just fine, when I do it from a Linux machine. When I want to copy files from the Samba server to a Windows XP SP2 machine (connection made from Windows), it copies a couple of files, and then everything just freezes - Samba doesn't send any more packets, and I have to reconnect

I converted an ext4 filesystem with btrfs-convert, mounted it, and wanted to do "lzop -d ...".

I have a server with a hosting company, Hetzner. The servers at this hosting company have a public IP, let's say, A.B.C.D/255.255.255.x. Additionally, one can order extra IPs like below: 1) additional subnet (let's say X.Y.Z.0 / 28) 2) single IP (let's say, E.F.G.H) With additional subnet, assigning the IP to libvirt guest is simple: - assign X.Y.Z.1 on the host - assign X.Y.Z.2

With ssh tunnel (-L option), is it possible to set _remote_ bind address? Say, I have a remote SSH server with two IP addresses, 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2. I would like to make sure that any outgoing connections to 3.3.3.3 will be made from 2.2.2.2: ssh client ---> 1.1.1.1 ssh server 2.2.2.2 >--- 3.3.3.3 Pseudo "--remote-bind" command here to illustrate what I mean: ssh -N -L

Does LightDM support multiseat setups? For example, I have a PC with multiple graphics cards, monitors, keyboards - used by multiple users concurrently. Will LightDM let me use one PC by many users concurrently (i.e. login screen on every monitor, allowing to start different sessions for different users). -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org

As some of you may know, I'm trying to set up Samba BDC on a disk- and fan-less tiny mipsel_CPU router running OpenWRT distribution. I already managed to compile Samba 3.0.21a and OpenLDAP 2.3.18 for it, and they seem to work fine. The problem is, this tiny distribution for routers doesn't seem to have anything like Name Service Switch (NSS), and relies solely on /etc/passwd and

I just gave nouveau a try and was surprised that it just works out of the box on Mandriva. Great work! However, I'm not sure how to set up a different resolution properly. With the closed nvidia driver, I usually just click on krandrtray in KDE and pick a different resolution. With nouveau driver, though, it works as well, but only partially. I can see the resolution is theoretically

I'm trying to cross-compile Samba 3.0.21a to run on mipsel (using uClibc). It fails at some point however, and I can't spot the problem: # ./configure --target=mipsel-linux --host=mipsel-linux --build=i386-pc-linux-gnu && make (...)
