Re: [Wlug] Dec 12: Identity Management: FreeIPA, SSSD, Kerberos, etc.

by Higgins, Benjamin John

Chuck: Wow - a meeting my wife will let me attend :) I also think " FreeIPA + Kerberos" is likely the best topic. Thanks! --b -- Benjamin J.

He asked which of the following topics people would be interested in: "FreeIPA - I go over problem space and talk about what IPA does and how it solves the problems - about an hour with Q&A. AD [Microsoft Active Directory] integration I can give an overview of the AD integration options and talk about best practices there - about an hour with Q&A. Application integration - is about how to build applications integrated with different authentication methods out of box - 40-50 min with Q&A. I can combine. I also can talk about Kerberos and explain how it works and how it can be used for SSO [Single Sign-On]." I was thinking FreeIPA + Kerberos which would fit nicely into our usual 2 hour meeting slot and provide a nice introduction to the topic, but let me know if the other topics are of more interest. Time is running short, so respond quickly! Thanks, Chuck _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug

Re: [Wlug] meeting topic

Yep, I'm pretty sure that was the graphical installer. Normally, for a stage1 install there is a 60M cd image that boots and has only command-line, but has many drivers that would be needed for a wide range of system installs. This method has an install guide of 7-8 webpages (the handbook) that walk you through everything from installing the basic packages to building a kernel and then setting up grub. The only complicated part is setting the CFLAGS and USE variables. -Jared On 1/31/06, Mike Leo <mleo963(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > I did not try ( or know of) a graphical installer... > > i booted off the "livecd" and walked through the handbook to install....then gave up... > > thanks for the feedback anyway. > > --- Greg Labonte <gbonte(a)WPI.EDU> wrote: > > > Just wondering Mike, Did you try using the Graphical installer for > > Gentoo? > > > > > > > On 1/30/06, Mike Leo <mleo963(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > > >> Am I wrong, or is the gentoo install insanely comlicated? > > >> > > >> Although I did not sit in front of it from start to finish, it > > >> seems like an install takes hours > > >> and hours of work... > > >> > > >> I followed the Handbook (some 80 pages of documentation), which > > >> i'm sure is very accurate and each > > >> step worked as advertised, but in the end it was too much. > > >> > > >> After an install of debian, which takes me less than 20 minutes, > > >> this was too much for my poor > > >> little brain to take, and I eventually gave up. > > >> > > >> In addition to that, I can't for the life of me, get slackware to > > >> consistantly install lilo > > >> correctly during the install. > > >> > > >> Any comments on either of these would be apreciated, however, I am > > >> just writing this to toss my > > >> vote in for a linux install fest as a meeting topic. > > >> > > >> I have no problem bringing in a laptop to show the simple, > > >> eligant, streamlined, 20 minute debian > > >> install, but I would like to also see someone go through a gentoo > > >> install, and assist on a > > >> slackware lilo config...all of which can be done via my laptop if > > >> needed. > > >> > > >> Thanks ! > > >> Mike > > >> _______________________________________________ > > >> Wlug mailing list > > >> Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > > >> http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > > >> > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > Wlug mailing list > > > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > > > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Wlug mailing list > > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > > > > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug >

Re: [Wlug] WPI Exchange Help

by Kurt Snieckus

On the WPI mail system mail first goes to the unix mail servers, and then gets forwarded to exchange. If you want you can keep the mail from being forwarded to exchange by changing the forwarding settings here: http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/CCC/Services/mailforward.html I forget exactly what I did, but it didn't work quite right, beacuse mail sent from other user's exchange accounts went to the exchange account instead of staying in the unix account. But if you e-mail the Helpdesk they can fix it for you. This then lets you use imap.wpi.edu, pop.wpi.edu, and webmail.wpi.edu/squirrelmail (And i think you can just login to ccc.wpi.eduand type pine and read your mail as well) If you'd like in-person help the Free Software Association tries to have meetings at 6pm on Tuesdays in the lounge on the 3rd floor of Fuller. E-mail owner-fsa(a)wpi.edu to get meeting announcements. -Kurt On Tue, Apr 7, 2009 at 11:39 PM, <tedshipper(a)gmail.com> wrote: > So I'm new to the Linux community and I could use a little help.

I've got a three node cluster at $WORK, but thinking of looking at their SCALE product. But of course while VMware is going to shaft us pricewise, the manglement might not want to leave the devil they know. Another issue is deploying OVA files. I find that ProxMOX is a pain in terms of .iso and .ova files, you need to first add them into it's own repository, then you can deploy from them. VMware just lets you browse for the files and deploy. Though I also admit that .ova deployments can be annoyingly tough, but I'm running VCenter 7.0.x and a mix of ESXi 6.7 and 7.0 on my systems. Legacy hardware which I can't move up. Another reason to hate vendor designed stuff, it locks you in. > I'd be happy to share code if anyone is interested. Please do!

Re: [Wlug] Major WPA2 Vulnerability

You've got to avoid computers to be fully secure. But let's not get that paranoid. I pulled Cat 5 cable through the house years ago and never use wireless, but WPI has its hair on fire, and sent Professor Diane email (through Microsoft cloud service) to install "upgrades" immediately. I told her to at least wait until she has her computer back in the office and plugged into WPI cable. I have a friend who has been without a computer for a month or two because he tried to upgrade firmware and could not re-boot. This is very embarrassing for the authors of the standard, but is it really a big problem? Several meetings ago, somebody brought a device to the WLUG meeting that, as I understood it, pretends to be a wireless router and interposes itself into any nearby connection. If things like that exist, why care about encryption vulnerability? If you need to patch both sides to be secure, then you are not secure in the coffee shop no matter what you do. In any case, if you are using the wireless to connect to a web site or "cloud" server, then the wireless connection is the least of your insecurities. -- Keith

Yes, video chat is built into all modern browsers. They call it "HTML5" and "WebRTC". > What exactly does Zoom or jit.si do then? It starts up a WebRTC session over HTTPS to the jit.si server using your microphone and camera to send your video/audio, while the web server jit.si sends the video/audio of all the other participants back to your browser. Each participant appears as a small video window in a "grid" on the web page. So the server acts as a "video router". > And what's in that Debian jit.si package? I haven't looked at the Debian package, but since the server side of jitsi is open source (the client side is open source if you use Firefox or Chromium or similar to access the server), I'd imagine that the Debian package contains the server code. jit.si the web site runs the open source code from jitsi.org. Anyone can run their own web server for people to connect to for creating their own video conference: https://jitsi.org/what-is-jitsi/

Re: [Wlug] the website is in need of some love

by Tim Keller

Yeah, I agree the site needs an overhaul. However, what does the website need to minimally do? * - Meeting Information * - Mailing List sign up * - Past Meeting info * - IRC channel info We've kicked around the idea of a wiki, which I'd be totally cool with and I'd help maintain. My personal opinion is that between the IRC channel, Dr. Google and the mailing list, a forum is overkill.
