    • RE: Tuleap Project Management

      Yeah. it also appears that the install didn't work. I set up a CentOS 6.7 install and followed the directions, and it installed.

      I had to kill iptables to be able to access it... but it told me my username & password were incorrect.

      I blew it away, lol... I'll try again in a bit and see what happens.

      Adding @KOOLER and @StarWind_Software

      For lab use it's possible to chunk out one physical LAN with vLANs and make a pseudo-supported config. Something you absolutely don't want to do in production! Later this year we'll release dynamic quorum thing so it would be possible to use single LAN between hosts.

      Can you PM me some details about this? I'd love to run my Lab Starwind in HA mode, but I can't right now since the machines only have one physical NIC.

      Scratch that... I didn't realize it was that simple. Now I reckon I can move on to testing out other apps behind Nginx, lol.

      So... Again if you want a username & password to poke around on it, just let me know. 8-)

      Edit: Or not. I gotta go back and rework a couple of things.

      The moment my mortgage company asks for that, is the moment I start looking for a new one.

      You should publicly take them to task for that on Facebook. Arguably, a non-redacted version of your post may be beneficial.

      Edit: Oh, you deleted it.

      @nadnerB said:

      Since posting earlier in this thread (some months ago for those visiting from the future), I have also swapped my home backup to Veeam Endpoint Backup Free.

      I like how Veeam EBF operates and it makes sense to do IT at home.

      Yepp. I'm hoping Santy Clause will bring me a 4-bay NAS and a 4TB drive or two for Christmas, lol.

    • RE: Has Anyone Evaluated Windows vs Linux Desktops

      I like your write-up on X2Go. That seems a viable replacement for RDP / Terminal Services -- even running in a VM.

      ROFL. Funny little tidbit. The church I grew up going to is growing out of the building that they've been in for 30+ years. They just bought a shopping center (an old Kroger) and there's a Mexican Restaurant + Bar at the edge of the property.

      I bet that restaurant is going to be booming for a while, lol.

      if ($preachingTime > $lunchTime) {
       find . $nearestRestaurant
      } else {
       $keepListening = 1
      }

    • RE: Installing X2Go NX Server on Linux Mint 17.2

      @johnhooks It seems to work really well over the internet for me. I love the fact that I can disconnect a session and come back to it later. I've always wanted that for the Linux GUI.

    • RE: Indoctrination into Islam?

      @scottalanmiller said:

      Doesn't seem weird at all. Learning about world religions is standard education all over the world, even in the US. And the point of the assignment was to learn a little about the calligraphy practices often associated with Islam. If anything, it seems like they were taking an extremely cursory approach trying to focus on the art of the religion rather than more core topics.

      It is very important for the understanding the art of the Arab and related world (like Spain) to understand how Catholic iconography and Islamic disallowance of iconography influenced the two regions artistically and culturally.

      Right. However, in a public school system, you don't use things that can be translated as doctrinal statements. I would expect the same reaction if somebody were made to write in any language that "Jesus is the only begotten son of God"

      Yes: That is a core value of the Christian Faith. But if you want to show off the calligraphy, why not use something that is not so heavily focused at the core of whatever religion. Perhaps something out of Proverbs...

      Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart... (Proverbs 3:3, if you are interested)...

      vs

      "There is no God but Allah and Mohammed is the messenger of Allah"

      Which one sounds like pure indoctrination?

    • RE: Has Anyone Evaluated Windows vs Linux Desktops

      @johnhooks Another is that NX will support disconnected sessions and resume them when you connect back (much like MS Terminal Services / RDSH).

      We are officially open until 12 on Christmas eve and closed until Monday morning at 8am! My whole team is very happy about that I think.... at least I hope 😛

      I work at a state college... so unless any of my side jobs need me for anything after Christmas, I get to enjoy being a lazier bum than usual for a week or so.

    • RE: What were your worst data disasters of 2015?

      Right after I started my new job, our Banner system (runs on an Oracle DB) suffered a drive failure. It was a Raid 5 array...with hot spares... The hot spares kicked in and two more drives failed, for a total of 4 drives failed in an 8-drive array... Yeah, that wasn't a pretty day, lol.

      (Fortunately, it was not my server, and the system has now been virtualized)./

    • RE: what are the best practices to do before virtualizing a physical DC ?

      @Dashrender said:

      I agree with @dafyre, If you only have one DC today, why would you have more than that with a virtual environment? And there's no reason not to virtualize it.

      Definitely spin up a new DC, 2012 R2 if possible.

      ^ That, for sure.

      I would still err on the side of caution and not plan on using snapshots for the DCs --especially if you have more than one.

      Server failure at client A

      User issues at clients C, D, E.

      Happy f[moderated]ing Monday!

      Sounds like we could do a 12 days of new year song too.
