For what its worth, most Linksys routers these days run VxWorks, not an embedded Linux. (Apparently they can put 8MB or so less RAM in them with VxWorks.) Another option you could try is to set up your own DNS server (if you install your own firmware onto that Linksys router you can probably do this.) Then, you can whitelist specific DNS domains, e.g. google.com, wikipedia.org, etc. (I won't even suggest you try to come up with a comprehensive list of domains to blacklist.) Everything else can be redirected to 127.0.0.1. The advantage of this is its simpler and very powerful.

Well, I love to make people laugh so I'll chime in here. I do use Fedora for some hosting, and I'm very happy with it for that purpose. The reason I like it better is that the packages are more up-to-date. Not bleeding edge, but more current. I'd rather let Fedora manage my mediaWiki installation rather than deal with the updates myself. The trick is that you have to accept that you'll be reinstalling it in a year.

I use CentOS on a number of servers and Fedora on some servers and desktops. It comes down to what the system will be doing. For the NFS server, where reliability is the main goal, I use CentOS. For a (virtual) server that runs GLPI and OCS Inventory, I use Fedora. Those applications are part of Fedora, so its very easy to get up and running and keep everything up to date. For the desktops, its Fedora - the bottom line is Firefox is the most commonly used app, and there's a nice, rather up to date version in Fedora. Lots of useful apps built in (available through yum), which is nice. This was a bigger plus when CentOS was on FF1.5, and Fedora was on FF2. What I'm working towards is getting everything to be managed and controlled by puppet, so that reinstalling the OS is easy, and switching between Fedora and CentOS (or *gasp* Ubuntu) is easy. The goal is flexibility and resiliency. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I think the conclusion that 'discussions will move over to the tech list' is wrong in the long term. If I had to bet, I would say that in the short term, these discussions will move to the tech list, and everything will go as planned. In the long term, I think they will move back to this list (from here till the end of this post, its the main list.). The reason is that there will be more people on the main list than the tech list -- everyone on the tech list will be subscribed to the main list, but not the other way around. Off-topic conversations will spring up out of topics that were once on-topic. Some people will disapprove and suggest they move the conversation, but they'll move only rarely. This may sound crazy, but maybe the thing to do is let the main list continue the way it is, but update the guidelines for this list to explicitly allow the things that Karanbir mentioned in the OP. Then, and this is the crazy part, set up a new list called centos-terse or centos-hardcore or centos-list-of-last-resort. Let that one be the new BS-not-tolerated, no noise, all Centos all the time list. If you're going to subscribe to one CentOS list, it should be CentOS-announce. But I'll bet its common for someone to only subscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Someone else mentioned the Fedora@ list as one that covers a broad range of topics and works out OK.

Using hardware RAID, divvy them up into one 50GB drive, and one really large drive. Put the OS on the 50GB drive, mount the really big drive. Now you have a 50GB drive and a 7*750-50 drive. When you fill that up, just buy another 2U server. When you do fill it up, the next one will be cheaper and or bigger. The keys to this type of setup are: 1) Don't buy storage you'll need next year today. The best time to buy this kind of hardware is right before you need it. 2) Look at the overall cost per gigabyte. That's the metric that drives things. 3) Understand your tolerance for downtime and data protection. If you have another copy, or a backup, and its not mission critical data, its much cheaper not to waste disks on redundancy. We have tape backups of our systems, and factoring in the cost of tape and other costs, its still possible to get storage with a marginal cost below $1 / GB.

Part 1: Get the user information out of the AD LDAP schema. As I
understand it, this requires modifying the Active Directory first. I
haven't been able to get this to work, but don't control my active
directory either.
Part 2: Authenticate the user via Kerberos. This is not too bad, as
long as you don't care if your desktop can't grant tickets. Two
things you need to do:
Modify /etc/krb5.conf:
* Set the default realm to your AD Domain.
e.g.: default_realm = MY.ACTIVEDIRECTORY.COM)
* Define as a domain_realm your default realm.
e.g.: .my.activedirectory.com = MY.ACTIVEDIRECTORY.COM
* Define the realm.
e.g.: MY.ACTIVEDIRECTORY.COM
{
kdc = dc1.my.activedirectory.com
kdc = dc2.my.activedirectory.com
default_domain = my.activedirectory.com
admin_server = dc1.my.activedirectory.com
}
Modify /etc/pam.d/system-auth -- not something I understand real well,
so don't treat this as definitive information. Try:
authsufficient/lib/security/$ISA/pam_krb5.so use_first_pass
If you use that setup, and keep the username entries in /etc/passwd
consistent with the names of users in your active directory, you can
require the user to present their AD password in order to login.
