@dustinb3403 said in CUPS and Canon Fiery Print Driver:
OK so what am I missing here, I go into CUPS, setup up the printer using the Fiery server and nothing ever prints.
Should I just setup the printer as an IPPS printer?
Ipp is usually the simpliest solution also if you plan to serve the printer consider cups can do pass thru leaving drivers to the client
@ccwtech not exactly the same but ctrl+shift+esc?!
Dont know my servers/pcs are all ubuntu or debian.
Never used centos or fedora with 1 exception: couple of years ago I deployed kvm as hypervisor. I did with centos.
I've used hpe config site in the past
@kelly sudo su lets you load part of the root env if I remember correctly.
Basically sudo lets your user do privileged work.
Sudo su lets your user become root. And then ezecute code as root.
This not the same as logging as root but some of the env should be loaded.
Any distro with a light desktop. Linux per se is not really memory hungry. Try lxqt/lxde.
Tbh xcp-ng is direct competitior to xenserver.
Now: either xenserver is considered legacy s**t no one wants and you can reposition in the middle of vmware and hyperv (that is half price of vmware, being hyperv a no-support option) or you just refer to xenserver prices and propose your full featured pack at the price of their mid pack.
Just to start doing a bit of math. Then Oliver has to see if this is affordable for them.
As a price I mean the annual cost per socket/core as the market is regulated by per socket prices and you end up being uncomparable if you move too far from the model. Also more sockets/cores lead to more vm so more issues.
I mean XOA has a good reputation but still xcp-ng is a new thing. I would not disalign from market here.
My 2cents.
In my previous work I was hured as they considered IT to be bench work. Just to say...
I ended up buying desktops with included external support, from WSUS as a service up to remote and onsite support.
They where dell desktop baked with Ricoh support (Ricoh is an official Dell partner in Italy).
Anyway installation still required me as procedures were written but were also internal docs that Ricoh didn't distribute to their bench stuff. So everytime I has to reexplain the sane stuff.
Also basic troubleshooting involved me because employees where not able to open tickets with a pc and always asked me to do it for them.
Close to me in Italy there is "femmina morta". Litteraly "dead female"
@jaredbusch odoo is free if you deploy it on premise. SaaS is paid. Never checed for specific prices.
deployed Altaro in may last job: cheaper than Veeam and really nice (also support has always been really reactive).
I gave Nakivo a 1 day try (short of time) but it doesn't convice me at the time.
last time I've installed a win server 2012R2 it was core. Not many win server installations by the way, and now I've changed job.
@Tim_G now that you have submoduled a folder guess: how to remove that folder from project1. Or better how to move the entire history of 'folder' into a new git?! Welcome to hell buahahah... (Done this one time. Still recovering from it :p)
@stacksofplates said in GitLab Symlink folder to another project?:
Use submodules for this.
git submodule add https://gitlab.com/<user>/repo repo
Yes submodule is the right way. Isolate common code into a library. Make a git for the lib. Submodule it in both of your projects.
@DustinB3403 : Docker is a specific type of container. It is stateless (can't store data) and as any containers is omogeneous - unless you run it in a VM an entire host must run the same os.
In an SMB usually we have "thick" VM with all layers in (data, business logic, front end maybe) also we have either linux or win on the host.
From a tipical SMB IT Docker is of minimal use.
In bigger envs where your services are split in components and you have a lot of instances running on top of a backing store that make more sense.

@scottalanmiller not so limited. I do both linux and win devel. Win in vm is a pita so you run win bare metal and use linux in vm. Then you grown bored of setting up samba for sharing between vm and host, fire the vm on 1 screen and have another os in the other screen and so on. Now I just fire wsl from win menu and I go. It is simply more seamless to me.
When you say you develop on both, you develop the same things on both, or different things on both?
I share between systems via GIT.
No I've customers asking for linux stuff and other customers asking for win stuff.
What causes the need for the Samba shares between them, then? Seems like you'd just keep them disconnected.
While all end in a git service (bitbucket) having code sparse in 2 machines and duplicated tools is not something I like. So I prefer to keep eveything in 1 place use 1 editor and share sources/compiled code to run it. With wsl this is smooth and fast. Not having to devel for win would be a big win.
