Another thing I would like to do is to disable ipv6 on this system
as satellite doesn't use ipv6

Without doing ifdown eth0 to see if I was using ipv6, I did:


# rmmod ipv6

libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:1802
kmod_module_get_holders: could not open '/sys/module/ipv6/holders': No
such file or directory Error: Module ipv6 is in use

So there is ipv6 in use.

How can I disable it and if someone knows, how can that enabled again
should I want to do so?

Thank you,

I have been having a WiFi problem for a few months now, and I think I 
should finally fix it. I am using a Lenovo Ideapad Z370 with Gnome 3's 
network manager. Whenever I connect to a WiFi network, I have one or 
more of these three problems.


1. The speed of the network drops drastically. Usually less than 20% 
of the speed that the network should be.
2. The network seems to work fine for several minutes then drops out 
for 30 seconds to two minutes until it finally starts working again. 
This repeats itself.
3. I am repeatedly asked for the password for the network and cannot 
access the internet at all. I know for a fact that the password I am 
entering is correct.


In all of these problems network manager says that I am connected to 
the network just fine which is obviously not the case. I can also say 
that this probably isn't a hardware problem or a matter of range 
because Windows 7 seems to connect just fine.


Does anybody know how to fix this problem? I can post any log files 
that may be needed. Thanks for any help in advance!

Re: Tools to retrieve images from dead hard drive and/or deleted partitions

2012-12-28 Thread Federico Alberto Sayd

On 27/12/12 18:17, berenger.mo...@neutralite.org wrote:
Ok, first, sorry to ask two questions at a time: dead drives and 
deleted partitions are different things, I know that.


Let me explain "my" (they are, in fact, friend's problems) two 
problems (from different peoples).


===
0) the common part.
By the past, I've did some researches about forensics (just as an 
amateur) and learned that you mostly work on copies of media from 
which you are trying to recover data.
But the 2 HD from which I need to recover images (mostly jpeg, I 
guess. The users only said that's photos, ignoring, and does not 
willing to know, everything about format - but if that was not 
computer stuff, they would have know what they've used...  - ) are 
bigger than all my current disks !
One is 500Gb, the other is 1Tb, where mine are mostly a bunch of 
40/80Gb + 1 or 2 of 250Gb.


1)
I have a hard disk (1Tb, the bigger) which gave me many errors when I 
am trying to read it. It makes it very slow to even read, but I've 
been able to determine that it contains jpg images with a classic file 
browser. I did not managed to copy any data on a safer place...
I am feared I will not even be able to retrieve one photo with my 
conventional hardware... but maybe some of you will have an idea?


2)
I have an external hard disk which is readable without troubles. But 
partitions were probably destroyed, AFAIK. The user knows (as usual) 
nothing about what happened, so I do not even know if the partition 
system have been remade, or if it is simply a problem like "format c:".

There are 2 partitions:
_ 1: the smaller, some Gb only IIRC, which was of type FAT when I 
looked (or was it FAT32? Is it is very different?)
_ 2: the bigger, and not a little, from my memory, it takes at least 
80% of the whole disk, which is NTFS, I guess most data is there.


===

So, do someone have faced one of those problems, and come to a solution?

Of course, I've said to their owners that keeping data on only one HD 
is suicidal, I've said that they can probably pay big amounts of money 
to specialized establishments to have them back, and have kept their 
hardware for some months (without using them), as a sanction (well, I 
tried at some times to take an eye, but had other things to do).


But, now, I'm in holidays, Christmas passed, and I'm thinking that 
could be an interesting gift to give back to people their photos of 
children and drunken nights, and I hope someone here could help me to 
do that for them :)


I've big fears that the owner of (1) will have no other choice that 
asking to people with dedicated hardware, but I ask in case... for 
(2), I've more hopes, IF the user stopped the destructive process 
before the disk was fully erased, but I'll need the good tools.




You can also try foremost.

If you want performance and redundancy at cost to reduce your storage

Do you know SOGo[1] (Scalable Open Groupware)? SOGo provides mail, 
addressbook, and calendar and reuses your infraestructure (mail server, 
ldap or database, imap server), also use a database for store calendars 
and task. The builtin web interface is proxied behind a web server 
(Apache or Nginx) and supports a wide variety of clientes (Thunderbird 
with Lightning using two aditional extensions) and in the version 2.0 
(using openchange) add native support to Outlook/Exchange MAPI protocol 
to access SOGo groupware without using connectors.


As its name tells SOGo is scalable, you can distribute your users across 
mutiples db's with multiple SOGo backends.


Native acces to calendar through iphone also is possible and using 
Funambol in other mobile devices.


Unlike Zimbra that is too monolithic, SOGo is modular and reuse your

SOGo provides packages for Debian Squeeze and Wheezy

Did you try to diagnose your hardrive with smartmontools? Smartmontools

As we've been commenting the past days in the Spanish mailing list,

Hi Camaleón I am the same that posted in the Spanish mailing list


Anyway, there's a bug report in Debian BTS where the error you get is
also listed:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=679678#10

Can't comment any further whether this has been solved or not yet :-?
Thanks, I suspect that is a problem related to the abscence of the file 
server smbd in the samba4 packages because this conflicts with the smbd 
file server of samba3 package [1]

actually, i am Planning migrating my microsoft infrastructure to linux

i successfully migrated  Fileserver, Virtualization, Proxy. now my
goal is to replace my domain controller holding 2003 server.

i have a mix client (33 nodes)  infrastructure including, WindowXP,
2003 Memeber server and Windows 7 while all are memeber of domain with
default GPO, though i wanted to use GPOs in future via samba4,

here is the detail of my domain controller,

1. 2003 Active directory
2. active directory integrated DNS with DNS forwarder.
3. DHCP.


so my questions are.

As per my understanding with DC . i can use ADC for failover.

- is it possible to install samba DC as an ADC and later promoted to DC?

- is there any one has migrated windows DC to SAMBA DC. what was
his/her strategy/experience (any suggestions would be appreciated).

- can anyone please tell me about the stability of SAMBA4. with his
personal experience  , since it is in beta stage?
   because my 2003 DC server is in production and i don't have a clue
that beta is a better way to go in production or not.


my requirement with samba4 after migration are.


1. DC
2. Integrated DNS so that when ever host join's. DNS records and other
updates in AD should be done by it self. (same ad windows  AD)
3. DHCP
4. Group policy implementation.

BTW, i am using 2.7 SAMBA as file sharing server integrated with 2003 AD.
so is it going to effect the migration or not? or samba 2.7 with
consider SAMBA4 machine as an old DC.

Thanks,



Hello:

I'm also interested in deploying samba4. My plan is to build a testing 
environment and then proceed with a possible migration.


Searching I found that samba4 from debian packages contains some 
differences with the official samba distribution. Originally samba4's 
team developed a replacement of the file server of samba3 called ntvfs. 
But later they decided to continue to use samba3 file server (smbd).


But Debian don't ship samba4 with samba3 fileserver (smbd) because this 
conflicts with smbd of samba3 package. Samba developers recommends to 
reactivate ntvfs[1].


For now this is the only issue that I found with samba4 on Wheezy.
