      https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/sssd-ad.html
      and i have getent passwd working but when i try to su to the user it just stops. if i restart the sssd service it will cause su to return

    • RE: Ubuntu Set Default Resolution Through GRUB for VM

      @scottalanmiller not a fan so far. will keep playing with it, but it hasn't impressed me yet. still, that's the beauty of linux, you have such a wide choice for desktop managers.

    • RE: How Much and Long Does the A+ Typically Influence IT Hiring?

      btw, when i did do the A+, the test was so outdated at the time (asking about 8 and 16 bit isa, eisa, mca, etc) that some of our very capable younger techs found it more like a history exam and had to go learn things they would probably never have to see or use again unless they worked in a museum. i seriously hope they have improved it.

    • RE: How Much and Long Does the A+ Typically Influence IT Hiring?

      the only time an A+ requirement came up was when I was told it was a pre-requisite for entry to server certification for IBM. Our corporate decided (probably over a game of golf) that we were to move from dell to IBM. IBM wouldn't let us open anything unless we were certified, so i had to go get one. They wouldn't waive the prerequisite even though i had 15 years experience by that time. So, as basic as it is, i'd say get it out of the way just in case. it won't kill you 🙂

      @guyinpv community edition is unlimited and we had no use for the extra pro features, but yes, horses for courses.

      @guyinpv odd, i have had no issues with clients, everything is done via https. as far as pricing goes, i use the free version and have about 30 users. no stability issues whatsoever.
