    [ubuntu] Re: snmp lm-sensors don't work!

    Sure! Remember though, as I said most of the work is in the Cacti configuration - and I'm not skilled enough to be exporting my templates for others to use (I only just managed to get it working for...

    [ubuntu] Re: Samba Authentication via likewise-open5

    Yeah I gave it a try, but I didn't like the fact that you have to manage It from a windows machine. I'm now using winbind RID mapping to make sure the UIDs are always the same throughout the network,...

    [ubuntu] Re: snmp lm-sensors don't work!

    I ended up writing a Perl program to interpret the output of the `sensors` command and used that to import the data into Cacti. My graphs are working once again!

    Most of the work was in making the...

    [ubuntu] Re: snmp lm-sensors don't work!

    I have the *exact* same versions and problem as you - did you ever find a solution? I know this is an old thread, but my SNMP/lmsensors just broke after I upgraded the server to Jaunty.

    [ubuntu] Re: Samba + Domain Authentication

    I've got it half working now, by symlinking lwopen.so and secrets.tdb - I didn't really know what I was doing but I've managed to get Samba authenticating clients using Likewise.

    However,...

    [ubuntu] Samba + Domain Authentication

    Hi,

    I have an issue that I can't find a lot of documentation about on the internet, and I wondered if anyone in the forums had experience with it.

    Basically, I started using Samba and Winbind...

    [ubuntu] Re: Samba Authentication via likewise-open5

    Oh right, I guess that's a pretty common problem - old packages :).

    I'll give it a go and see what happens.

    Cheers for letting me know about the phone call!

    [ubuntu] Samba Authentication via likewise-open5

    Hi,

    I have an Ubuntu Desktop machine, which is used as a sort of terminal server (using VNC). It is joined to my Windows AD Domain, and I wish to set up a samba share on the machine, which will...

    Nice HowTo, thanks for this.

    I found that shameless copy on someone's blog post - glad you put a comment with a link here though!

  10. [ubuntu] Re: ntfs-3g Special Characters - Very Strange

    If there's no one with the answer to the problem does anyone know where I might start to look or ask in order to get closer to a solution? I'm thinking maybe just format the backup drive in ext3 -...

    [ubuntu] Re: DNS/nameserver issues

    It's because mail.rooksystems.com resolves to 192.168.1.13 - which is not accessible from the outside world. I'm guessing it needs to be set to 65.100.249.52 - which is what srv1.rooksystems.com...

  14. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    Great, let me know how it goes! I'd love to know if it would be worth upgrading to a more powerful CPU - not only for the 64-bit guest support but if the performance gain is anything worth shouting...
  15. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    Oh, and about the backups:

    I have shared the external USB drive using Samba, and the Virtual Machines backup to this over the network. I have found this to be the fastest, and easiest method to...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    I had no idea about that VT info - I didn't know you needed it for 64-bit guests, but seeing as I'm not running any, and it would hurt performance of my 32-bit guests, I accidentally made the right...
  17. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    I chose that CPU because quite simply, it was much cheaper than a full-blown Core 2 Duo (with the VT extensions). So far, I have had no problems whatsoever with performance, it has been very speedy...
  18. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    I heard a lot about altering the chunk size of the RAID array, and indeed the block size of the file system itself, but never got round to trying it. The performance seems to be fine as it is though,...
  19. [ubuntu] Re: Best Ubuntu Server version to use for VMWare Server host?

    I've just beefed up the document a bit - there was a lot of things I did to my default ubuntu install that would help anyone else doing the same thing greatly. I've incorporated startup scripts and...

    I'm doing exactly what you plan to with my home server. I'm running Hardy 64-bit Server, with 3 Virtual Machines (all Windows Server 2003). The host has 4GB of RAM, and I have a couple of RAID1...
  21. [ubuntu] Re: Samba crashes when copying a large file - Hardy 64

  22. [ubuntu] Samba crashes when copying a large file - Hardy 64

    Hi,
    I have just set up a new server, running Hardy 64-bit, hosting a few VMware Machines. It's got 4GB RAM, so some room to expand in the future - and certainly isn't overworked.

  24. [ubuntu] Re: Several Questions to a Raid 5 Installation

    If I were you I would definitely keep the O/S on one single drive, and RAID the others for data. Keep as little on the O/S as you can - so reinstallation is quick and easy if the O/S drive goes...
