@NerdyDad thats how our colo is. The rent includes security (keycard access to DC, combiantion access to rack), rack, power feed, and Internet. Oh, and basic PDU's. We wanted more advanced PDU's (remote management and monitoring) which we could either lease from them or buy ourselves.

@matteo-nunziati
That is interesting, ftp works but not http
He could try changing apt to use ftp instead of http in sources.list

Now that you resolved that issue, why are you using 16.04.1?

Because testing everything before upgrading to 16.10 is more work than I have time for right now.

Upgrades get harder and harder as you get more versions behind. 17.04 is less than two months away. Just keep in mind that the easiest process is updating on a roughly six month cycle with Ubuntu. It's the least chance of things breaking.

@wirestyle22 said in Large Linux Samba Server On Hyper-V 2012 R2 - Caveats? Best Practices?:

So does the host file system (NTFS) not manage the partition the VM file system is on (XFS)? Is that why @scottalanmiller is saying to separate the two? i'm a little confused how the two interact or if they interact directly/indirectly.

The VM's storage is just files. Literally each individual file system in the VM is a file on NTFS or ReFS. So from Hyper-V we see a series of files. To the VM they are normal disks.

I got the email about this product a day after we discussed it here on ML.

I don't know to read that.

I see the SUM at the bottom, but don't know what it means.

If I had to guess it is running multiple streams at the same time and is summed at the SUM

I too assume this - but wanted to be sure, so I made my comment 🙂

I take it you haven't been introduced to iperf yet?

Look 8 posts up.

@Murtlap We'd all agree with you on the Linux isn't any more secure just because it's Linux point! Hopefully we'll have the video from my speech at MangoCon available soon. If not, you can always look at my slide deck.

Have never touched that.

Thanks Scott. That jogged my memory to enable ssl module. That was what I missed.
