Seems, as if full pam_support is only availabe in 5.3
5.2 is some kind of stub implementation.

Mail an Cengiz

Hoi,
nur ums mal geschrieben zu haben:
Der Grund, warum Solaris und auch AIX keine sekundären Gruppen bieten, ist,
dass sie keinen Support für das sog. 2307bis Schema bieten. Linux schon.
Das heisst: Ran an die Compiler und nss_ldap mit --enable-rfc2307bis
übersetzen. Immerhin wissen wir jetzt was Sache ist.
Viele Grüsse
Daniel

Interesting Background , no time to read it now.

Status Active Directory auth with AIX and Solaris

So , all is working except multiple groups, that need
support for rfc2307bis with dn-valued group members.
Well ok

Solution to the secondary groups problem - kindof

Sunday Work

Work Journal
Well, got some papers cleaned up, did some E-Mails, all for the good cause. Made me feel better before god ;-)
Also installed fedora Core , but up2date is running for a full day now. Duuh....

A Full day

Work Journal
First a meeting at HP to discuss further sales of trainings in essence.
Then debugging of a switch installation in Wiesbaden. Worked untill 21:00
Then a business club meeting in Frankfurt. O well....

Blogging

featuring: Random Link
OK, I want to keep track of my activities. I hereby vow to try and blog something everyday.
Today I am teching Linux Basics in Düsseldorf, which is ok.

RPM's needed for MONDO on SuSE

mondo
mindi
newt (special mondo edition)
slang
cdrecord
mkisofs
syslinux
dvd rw tools
dosfstools

Where is it at ?

Work Journal
I am now trying mondo and mindi as disaster recovery software. Lets see how that works . Also preparing next weeks seminar. Finally tackling sudo.too. Sometimes it'shard to concentrate on all the stuff.

Notes of a meeting

This guy...
...and this guy...
and me. It was about me changing camps from the first guy to the other guy. And I say it seems to work out ok. Everyone agreed on on a mutual improved partnership. I can still recieve contracts from the first guy through the other guy and we are all happy. Maybe the second guy is even going to buyy the first guy. We shall see.

Journal Entry

Work Journal
Ok, so today I have to make some major inroads on the backup thingy.
I do get distracted so easy. Also: Very important meeting this afternoon.
But I did get the VPN to the new employer set up. Works nicely.

So far...

Work Journal
Well I have not done anything on the backup so far. Instead I set up the VPN to the new business . Trashed my sys in the meantime by accidentally chmoding the whole of /etc to 600 (Silly me!)
Got it up again and everything works. >Nice one

NIC Tango

Work Journal
Hi all,

I'm sure some know the problem:
Since SuSE recocnizes the NICs by MAC, they keep shifting around their ID's
on slight config changes. I tried to check this problem by editing /etc/modprobe.conf like so:


# Aliases - specify your hardware
########################################################################

install eth0 /sbin/modprobe via-rhine
install eth1 /sbin/modprobe dmfe
install eth2 /sbin/modprobe ne2k-pci


However that does not order anything, I have dmfe on eth0, ne2k on eth1 and the onboard via-rhine on eth2. Hmmmm....
Anyone have an idea ?

The Backup

Work Journal
OK, starting to work on the backup.
First thing to do is to rework the thingy, so diskspace is not needed. Instead the whole system is to be written directly to the DVD. Buffer Underruns galore....
Second thing is to have it all menu driven.
Third thing is to have more features tied in, like autorecognizeing the bootdisk we want and so on.

Things to do and things done

Work Journal
1. Sound still not working -- started ANOTHER online update.
check on the ALSA mailing list
2. Finish the Backup util with new specs
3. Get the Unterlagen and meet Lorenz.
4. Check if the Tuning Seminar is on
5. VAT done
6. Confirm startuing date for new employer
