[Nanog-futures] Fwd: Proposed bylaws for NewNOG

2010-09-20 Thread Daniel Golding
A couple comments... The age requirement to be a fellow is more applicable to IEEE than NANOG. Also, we don't know how old anyone is - the only observable data available is % of grey hair and degree of grouchiness, both of which are sadly inexact. I think there should be a codified budget and

Steve, overall good job. A few comments: 1. On life members, not sure you want to include that this is 10x membership in the bylaws since the fee here could change over time. 2. I think we do need a finance committee since you have this on most boards. 3. On legislation, I think if the

Just as an FYI - a lot of the membership stuff got cribbed from IEEE (thanks, IEEE guys!), as they are a related group and there's no need to reinvent the wheel. That being said, there will be a few cases like this, where we'll need to clean up the verbiage. There is nothing actually implied here

Another +1 UBNT. We're using the NanoStation2 to deliver 802.11g to remote camps in Afghanistan. They advertise a 60 deg LOS signal but it seems to do much better. Supposedly they will reach 15 km but we've never tried to use them that far. What's really neat is they come ready to mount with some

UBNT is fine if you need a bridged network, using them in junction to MikroTik's RouterBOARDs will give you all of the tools you will need to be successful as well. Routing, traffic shaping etc.Contact me off-list if you need pre-built / configured solutions with either hardware.

Microsoft Active directory absolutely needs dynamic DNS. However, I know that it has been integrated with bind, so I don't believe it needs Microsoft DNS. A common procedure is to delegate a subdomain to the microsoft dns server and let the Active Directory forest be built within that

It does not need MS DNS. $dayjob uses Infoblox appliances (BIND under the hood) for DNS and it works fine with AD. You just need to make sure you allow the Domain Controllers to do dynamic updates (AD uses SRV records). On Mon, 20 Sep 2010 08:04:49 -0600 Tom Mikelson tmikel...@gmail.com wrote:

Active directly is tied fairly closely to it's DNS. For example, if a client needs to find a Domain Controller, it does a DNS 'SRV' query for (I think, I'm doing this from memory) '_LDAP._TCP.domain.com/org/net/whatever'. I assume other 'services' like LDAP are 'advertised' (if you can call it

That has been the stock MS answer for a long time, but at least W2K8 makes a few concessions. Technet has some references on making bind configurations to work with AD, specifically the statement (and here's perhaps the best place to start...): When a domain controller is promoted, a file

Our Corporate Overlords run DNS on a mixed environment of Windows and Other (mostly other). Back when we were still a small company, we moved our DNS from BIND to Windows for ease of administration. It CAN be done, but it's a huge PITA since AD does things in DNS that aren't standard (and in

If your AD domain is a subdomain, like corp.job.com, you can always delegate the subdomain's name service to the MS DNS servers from the BIND servers. That way, you don't have to make huge changes to your existing environment. -Original Message- From: Tom Mikelson
