    Maybe we are just horrible but, whenever a user forgets to do something like this it's on them and up to their manager to enforce it. We don't make changes like this in a users account. If we actually did that something like that would need approval from the COO or CEO.

    They also forget about SELinux with their CentOS 7 docs. You need sudo setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1 and possibly sudo chcon -R --type=httpd_syscontent_rw_t /opt/kibana

    Up and running now.

    @gjacobse I didn't think the NoMachine client was compatible with X2Go.

    Here is the definition.

    Now which applies to MDADM RAID? If Cold swapping is the only way of swapping drives, then I guess it immediately excludes it from any Enterprise or even business solution.

    MD RAID (MDADM is the management utility for MD RAID) is hot swap, of course, and some vendors like ReadyNAS and Synology add their own extensions to add blind swapping. No one would even discuss it if it wasn't hot swap.

    Yea that is what I followed and it didn't work. 45 minutes later I realized this is because this is an isolated stack of switches that is not plugged into the domain yet..... Hard to get a time when they cant talk with the ntp server!!

    facepalm

    Glad you got it sorted out eventually. 🙂

    You really have to love those moments when you are starting to get really frustrated then 30 seconds later you think "Oh my, I am a f-in idiot."

    I worry if I don't have at least one of those a day, lol.

    I realize that part of that is the expectation of the technology and not the technology itself and I have nothing against IM, I'm using it right now. It's just not a replacement for email, it is a supplement.

    absolutely agree, it's an augment.

    BTW: when trying to figure out why OneDrive was not showing icons in Windows 10, i came across this article. Perhaps it will fix the icon problem people have been having...

    Disabke SELinux and see if it works. Then if so, add the port as allowed to SELinux?

    Looks like it was SELinux, setting it to permissive allowed the port to be used. Now to figure out how to allow the port in SELinux.

    semanage port -m -t http_port_t -p tcp 82

    That did it thanks.

    @DustinB3403 Thanks for your help! NFS is case sententive, it is mounted now! 😄

    Everything outside of the Windows and DOS worlds is case sensitive. SMB, NFS, URLs, file names, passwords, usernames, everything.

    Thats what bugs me about Linux ... I hate case sensitive things.

    I'm the opposite, I can't stand that DOS can't tell two characters apart and has "close enough" syntax so that people become sloppy and begin to lose the concept of congruency. I remember dealing with a bunch of students and getting them to understand things like "This", "this" and "t h I s" were not congruent was a real problem. Windows teachers users that exact doesn't mean exact, not always.

    I think that is why I like cisco's ios software... i don't have to type the full command... just enough to distinguish it from the other commands available.... I see the benefits of case sensitive, it just will take me a bit to get used to using it as I learn Linux.

    Well it only took nearly all day to understand what @johnhooks and @scottalanmiller where talking about... but now I do.

    It works because the RDS client is not pointing to yourservername.domain.com or even your internal IP address.

    Instead the RDS client is told to use localhost or 127.0.0.1. The local machine then, through a forwarder put in place by PuTTY sends all traffic destine for PuTTY assigned port to PuTTY and PuTTY forwards the traffic over the tunnel to port 3389 at the address set in the SSL -L command previously run.

    OK I understand.

    Can't you give Mandrill your DKIM private key? Of course that's probably not wise. In which case I'd setup a sister domainname for this purpose.

    DKIMs seem interesting. Though without Secure DNS I'm not sure what good it really does, the Public Key listed in non Secure DNS can be spoofed by a MITM attack - though I'm not sure how much of a real concern that is.

    How does filebeat compare for how it is used?

    I'm not done building yet so I can't say. Here's what they say the changes are,

    Filebeat introduces the following major changes:

    The config file was restructured and converted from JSON to YAML.
    The registry file, which stores the state of the currently read files, was changed.
    Command line options were removed and moved to the configuration file.
    Configuration options for outputs are now inherited from libbeat. For details, see the Beats Platform Reference.
    A new Logstash input plugin called logstash-input-beats is required.

    It doesn't seem like you would notice a difference.

    @scottalanmiller That's the whole reason I want DNS setup. I want to be able to SSH by hostname, not IP address, however I guess your right, maybe I just need to setup the host names on the jumpbox.

    that's all that I do. Maintain the /etc/hosts file and I never run into a need to use IP Addresses since I don't SSH from random box to random box.
