Re: [CentOS] Apache/Active Directory authentication
On Tue, 22 Mar 2011, Michael B Allen wrote: Hi John, You would not have to create dummy machine records. The servicePrincipalName attribute on an AD account is multi-valued and clients can request and get a ticket for ANY principal in that list. So you only need one account. And you do not need special permissions if you have an existing keytab because you can use the keytab to authenticate with AD and add servicePrincipalName values to the account itself. At least in theory you can. I don't know if Samba's routine for adding HTTP SPNs is smart enough to know that it needs to not just add servicePrincipalName values but that it will also need to rebuild the keytab. Yes, but using the machine principal you're able to request any number of service principals that are SERVICENAME/machinename. For this to work in a virtual hosting environment, you need multiple machine names (since we're talking about making a number of HTTP/blah principals). Whilst I accept this is possible, I don't see how you'd do it without being a domain admin. How do I create the records starting from a position of only having the machine credential for the web server, and at best another user credential with rights to create machine objects? With domain admin rights, I get how your scheme works, although it wasn't a route I'd previously considered. jh ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Noone touched server HW, so i have no idea what was that. Now we are just waiting will there be errors again. You know.. I once had a *whole rack* of blade servers, running CentOS, where someone decided to save money by buying the memory separately and replacing it in-house. Slews of memory errors started up pretty soon. and I wound up having to reseat all of it, run some memory testing tools against them, juggle the good memory with the bad memory to get working systems, replace DIMM's, etc., etc. We kept seeing failures over the next few months as part of the falling part of a bathtub curve. I was furious that we'd saved perhaps 2 thousand bucks on RAM, overall, and completely burned a month of my time and made our clients *VERY* unhappy and come out looking like fools for not having this very expensive piece of kit working from day one. In the process, though, some of the systems were repaired permanently by simply reseating the RAM. I did handle them carefully, cleaning the filters, removing any dust (of which there was very little, they were new) and checking all the cabling. I also cleaned up the airflow a bit by doing some recabling and relabeling, normal practice when I have a rack down and a chance to make sure things go where they shouuld. And I *carefully* cleaned up the blood where I cut my hand on the heat sink on the one system.

Re: [CentOS] dns question
As was previously mentioned, you need to be more clear about what you're asking. There are multiple related concepts. Look up a description of the SOA record, in particular the refresh, retry, expire, and minimum TTL fields. The first three affect how DNS secondary servers behave. The last can affect client responses, but you can also have per-record TTL values and zone default TTL values. This link might be a good starting point for understanding the SOA parameters: http://rscott.org/dns/soa.html If you're trying to solve a problem with DNS secondaries keeping up, watch that you're incrementing the serial number. If you're using split zones (views) or other esoteric configurations, things get a whole lot more complicated. -- Everyone has a photographic memory.

The really cool features of IPMI have matured a lot, and in some cases no hardware vendor drivers are needed, It Just Works with the basic system installation. Unfortunately, I don't have a rack of hosts to test this on this week, or I'd suggest it. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Ideally a 3-4 port switch for a few hundred seems reasonable to me. I can attest that the Adderlink iPEPS and iPEPS-DA are excellent units. They're both in the 500-1000 range. They're intended for a single machine, but as long as your access policies allow for it, putting an electronic KVM switch (~$200) between multiple servers and the iPEPS works well. You're not going to find much that is usable under that price range. Some of the lower end solutions from other vendors are windows-IE-only. The iPEPS uses encrypted VNC. Hi Devin, This is interesting. But can you switch consoles remotely using special keystokes? Or do you need to physically walk over and switch the conventional non-IP unit?

The servicePrincipalName attribute on an AD account is multi-valued and clients can request and get a ticket for ANY principal in that list. So you only need one account. And you do not need special permissions if you have an existing keytab because you can use the keytab to authenticate with AD and add servicePrincipalName values to the account itself. At least in theory you can. I don't know if Samba's routine for adding HTTP SPNs is smart enough to know that it needs to not just add servicePrincipalName values but that it will also need to rebuild the keytab. Yes, but using the machine principal you're able to request any number of service principals that are SERVICENAME/machinename. For this to work in a virtual hosting environment, you need multiple machine names (since we're talking about making a number of HTTP/blah principals). Whilst I accept The machinename of the principal does NOT have to match the actual machine name. You could create a User object called alice with servicePrincipalName values of HTTP/as1.busicorp.local, HTTP/mycomputer.net and HTTP/test1 and requesting tickets for any of those names will work just fine. AD just searches for an account with a servicePrincipalName value that matches the principal requested for the service ticket. Pedantic note: If you have the same servicePrincipalName value on more than one account, AD will actually choke and not return a ticket at all (because the request is ambiguous), there is no constraint in AD to stop people from accidentally adding the same SPN to multiple accounts and AD will not return any kind of meaningful error about it.

Re: [CentOS] Affordable KVM over IP switch
That part isn't a function of the iPEPS, it's a function of your KVM switch. So yes, I was thinking about models that do it with a particular key stroke. I've used the D-Link DKVM-8E as a decent low cost unit, although it has the tendancy to get confused during a full power outage of your data center, requiring a hard reset. Because the DKVM-8E takes power from both its own power brick and from the keyboard connectors, you can't reset it by using a remote power distribution unit; you have to have someone present in the data center press a button. Given my druthers, I'd use a different unit that didn't exhibit this behavior, but I find it's not too onerous (I've had two cases in the last 18 months that required this on-site intervention, and even then the servers are fine; I just can't reach the consoles.) The D-Links are NOT suitable for professional use. I used one of their models and it hanged on me multiple times. Because it is powered by the keyboard/mouse/video connectors, the only way to recover it is to physically disconnect ALL cables and reconnect them again. As long as ONE of the sources of power is connected, the unit won't recover. Someday you quickly need to access a machine only to suddenly discover that you are stuck and can go nowhere.

Right, but as these numbers reveal, since June 2008 Scientific Linux is closing the gap with CentOS (or rather, CentOS is slacking). You can see this when comparing CentOS and RHEL release dates. Since June 2008 CentOS started having longer delays (source: Wikipedia) https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/CentOS Where the average release delay was 25 days before June 2008, the average release delay after June 2008 increased to 51 days, and I am not including the already late CentOS 5.6 and CentOS 6.0 (otherwise it would be 62 days). CentOS 4.8 (95 days late) and CentOS 5.3 (69 days late) have been the worst delays. But now CentOS 5.6 is already at 69 days and CentOS 6.0 is past 133 days delay, an all time record (not counting CentOS 2 :-)). So the trend is a decline in release speed and maybe we should lower our expectations. CentOS users have been spoiled in the past.
