Re: [Ilugc] Need clarity about incremental backup

Yes it does. Even rsnapshot does.

You can retrieve by using the time stamp.

 Hi All,
 I need an backup tool which can give better performance and
 occupying less disk space, so I went for an incremental backup ( slbackup
 - rdiff-backup )
 But now I need to implement a daily, weekly and monthly backups.
 There is no direct way in slbackup. So I have done the scripts to do it.

 I have one doubt. In case of incremental backup if I lost any data in
 between
 whether I can retrieve the data or not?.
 basically I want to know how rdiff-backup does incremental backup.

 please help me out from this.

 Thanks in advance.

Re: [Ilugc] Suggestion for Dedicated Server for a Social networking website

 Cpanel is normally an extra paid option most of the providers will be
 offering separately.

IIRC, ISPconfig has similar functionality and is open source.


 See typically you can buy 10 domains Cpanel or unlimited domains from the
 provider. The difference will not be much but this is related to money so
 you have to decide on that. If you are taking unlimited domains - you can
 not only host multiple domains but also offer additional services like FTP,
 Mail Server etc., along with it as they come as a bundle. (Of course you
 need to see how much of space you have on your VPS!)


The OP is not clear on the concept of domain names.  From the
discussion so far, I have gathered he wants to build *a* social
networking site and not *many*.  In such case he will need only *one*
domain e.g. foobar.com.
IMO, registering a domain name should be the first thing on his agenda.

The OP also needs to figure how much he is willing to pay; that is not
clear from the discussions so far.
IMO, he should select a hosting solution based on his budget.

As someone else has suggested AWS, I agree.  IIRC, AWS offers a one
year free micro instance.

You mean if you lost one of the incremental backups on the backup server?

yes, technically, micro instances are less reliable than others - but I'd
say use it as a blessing in disguise to build an application that is
independent of the underlying infrastructure. So we might as well learn to
dance on a shaky floor so that we can dance really well on firmer grounds.
;)

Another step in the same direction: Use Spot instances (which are even less
reliable) where you can get a machine for as less as Rs.0.25 per hour. But
the key is in building stateless systems.

Also, once you reach a stage where the need for sustained processing is
felt, you can always upgrade to a different model of server. Until then you
can run multiple micro or small instances. As I said earlier, design is the
key.

[Ilugc] Help:Ldap configuration in apache 2.2(redhat 6)

2013-02-09 Thread hari prasadh
Hi Everyone,

I have done a setup like redirecting the request from port 8080 to 80. and
configured a ldap over there as below:

i have changed /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

VirtualHost *:80
ServerAdmin hariprasadh.balasubraman...@xyz.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName (hostname given correctly)
ErrorLog /var/log/error.log
Location /sss
 AuthBasicProvider ldap
 AuthType Basic
 AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
 AuthName Enter ur AD username and password
 AuthLDAPURL 
ldap://xxx.com:389/OU=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=aaa?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)
 AuthLDAPBindDN emailid
 AuthLDAPBindPassword password
 require valid-user
/Location
ProxyPass /sss http://ipaddr:8080/sss
ProxyPassReverse /sss http://ipaddr:8080/sss
/VirtualHost
When i see my error log,it is as below


[Sun Feb 03 19:04:34 2013] [error] Exception KeyError:
KeyError(140574763460576,) in module 'threading' from
'/usr/lib64/python2.6/threading.pyc' ignored
[Sun Feb 03 19:04:34 2013] [error] Exception KeyError:
KeyError(140574763460576,) in module 'threading' from
'/usr/lib64/python2.6/threading.pyc' ignored

and i have changed the referals off in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf

can somebody help me out whether the configuration is right ?
Suggest me the right solution..

Apart from that i have done authentication by kerberos,it works and again i
have to bother for authorization,becoz it has to be done in ldap ( group
based authorization.)
i want to allow one particular group to access my url

how to enable the debug mode in apache to see the error log clearly.

Low priority:
Redirecting the request from 80 to 443 in apache
