[osol-discuss] Using Active Directory as name service
Hi guys, I thought I would look into moving from running 2 naming services (LDAP and AD) and transferring to AD. I see I have two options: 1) Setup the NIS unix service on Windows and use ldapclient to point to AD server. This looks a good solution which I see many people have tried, but the only downfall is I would lose the automount maps, which I can see how they can be import into AD. 2) Use the Solaris 11 nss_ad Naming Service module. This may work, but I have had no luck yet, so just wonder if any one has got it working yet, since Oracle Support and the internet does not have any information about it! I am using oracle.com doc site: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1455/adsetup-10.html#scrolltoc - Setup Windows 2008 Server - After the following command krb5.conf is created and a machine is created in AD - #/usr/sbin/kclient -T ms_ad Starting client setup --- Setting up /etc/krb5/krb5.conf.

[osol-discuss] SASL support in sendmail

Andrew On 11/14/11 07:36 PM, Brian Cameron wrote: Andrew: The functional replacement of the Primary Administrator RBAC profile is System Administrator. If you use this instead, you should find that your use is able to run programs with pfexec in much the same way as you used to do with Primary Administrator. Note that if you setup your login shell to a shell like pfsh, pfksh, pfcsh, pfbash, ..., then you do not have to run programs with pfexec when needed. With these shells, pfexec is automatically used when needed. If you want users to need to enter a role password in order to run programs, you can also configure the user to have access to a role which has the needed privileges (e.g. root). If RBAC is configured this way, then the panel will present the dialog to enter this role password before running such programs. But, it sounds like you more just want to use the System Administrator profile and avoid needing to enter passwords. Others have recommended sudo. The sudo program is useful for those people who find it the best way to configure a needed system. That said, using sudo to just avoid the use of RBAC is probably not the best use.

Re: [osol-discuss] ACL for window
Ryan, ACL are a big pain in CIFS. I guess you should have a closer look at what ls -lV shows on the files. I have been battling my way through it myself. First, when I created the file and change delete permission to deny delete permission from windows side. but user still can delete the file. Are you talking about a UNIX or Windows user can delete the file? If Windows user then check you have created the right permissions on the home directory for the owner, since it works correctly for windows: owner@:rwxpd-aARWc--s:fd-:allow - remove D - Delete subfolders and Files - remove C - Change Permissions - remove o - Take Ownership If Solaris User, then you seem to be right.

I guess this type of error requires new intel drives which means that it will never be fixed, since Oracle will not ship Core i3/5 systems and so will not bother working on it.

AI only offers one way and if you have a non compatible DHCP (Microsoft) then I can not install Indiana - No DVD image of OpenSolaris Indiana I know it is on the way but! - No text Console install process I am not talking about tty - Sparse zones - No clear method of upgrade from Solaris - OpenSolaris End of an era.

Re: [osol-discuss] [advocacy-discuss] OpenSolaris Developer Preview
It's true, OpenSolaris (Indiana) will replace Solaris Express Developer Edition after SXDE 1/08. I am a bit surprised that you think the product will be up to the same level in a few of months time as the current SXDE 1/08. At the moment the two areas which concern me are how I can do network Jumpstart installs - nearly at a flick of a switch I can upgrade a lab of machines running the latest and greatest OpenSolaris. I can't use Solaris 10 since of the outdated interfaces. Also, I still like the single download - it may be a DVD size, but at least it is done in one go and it allows me to upgrade my home machine in one easy go! Is there any way of doing this at the moment i.e. mass download of packages to install at a later date? Don't get me wrong Indiana is the way of the future with its small download, install and then package update for ever more for the desktop world, but I can't not see it for the Solaris Server World. Thanks anyway for the clarification. Andrew ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Anybody now will Oracle make 11g release for Solaris x86?
Hi, I think Tom has spelt the problem out very well. Oracle will only release a Open(Solaris) x86-64 version when they have finished all there priority releases and then depending what demand there is for the product. I got my reply back from Oracle and now they just point me to there support site which says that current support release is 10gR2 and no news about release dates (if any) for 11g. My money will be on a 11gR2 release, so at least another year. I will no chase Sun up to see what they say. Andrew Hello, 1. Oracle 11gR1 for Solaris 10 (SPARC) is a priority and the x86 edition of Oracle 11gR1 was proposed (I expect it for Oracle 11gR2 once stable on other primary Oses - if demand is there and to supercede 10g). The 'proposed' status is documented in Oracle's product certification matrix as well (although, it may not be up to date based on certain previous comments on the terminal release). Note: Most ISVs run into the issue of resources, support, training and/or customer (i.e. mid-large enterprise/business demand/ROI) of the product. 2. Review installs of Oracle 10gR2 on the various OpenSolaris distros (SXCE/SXDE, Schillix, Nexenta, Belenix, Indiana) Note: http://bderzhavets.blogspot.com/2007/10/install-oracle-10.html http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=9161 You may want to ask Sun about their reviews and speculations on future Oracle 11g+ support on Solaris x86 as well. ~ Ken Mays - Hello Andrew, Friday, January 25, 2008, 8:13:46 PM, you wrote: AW I have been looking into this recently and I got a reply from AW those Oracle people, which is not what I was hoping for.

Re: [osol-discuss] chrooting ftp users?
is there a way to configure the ftp server in Solaris in such a way that users be automatically chdir-ed to their home directory and that they see it as / ? I don't care if ftpd actually calls chroot() or not. I tried to set some option in /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess, but with miserable results (I find ftpaccess(4) quite unclear) . I know that proftpd or vsftpd would do it, but I'm trying to minimize the installation of third party packages. Nico, You can do this by adding the following to the ftpaccess file # Restrict all users to there home directory guestuser * # Give the following user full access realuser andrew andrew # Give the following group full access realgroup staffstaff = make sure you restart ftp # svcadm restart svc:/network/ftp:default There is one bad side effect [which I think is a bug].

[osol-discuss] Will OpenSolaris work on a intel desktop Quad processor

Likewise, I haven't seen the Sun One Directory server being able to fully and completely replace Microsoft Active Directory because it is fully interoperable with AD, meaning that it can supplant it.

Microsoft don't care about any other companies and they don't need to worry, since there OS is the one which is widely used around the world.

Good question. Let's spin it around a bit, though: if somebody did enable root logins via telnet on a UNIX system in this day and age, should they really have anything to do with UNIX? You are right that opening root to remote access a machine via any way (telnet/rsh/ssh) is asking for trouble. Root should only be via CONSOLE or SU...

[osol-discuss] Re: Distributed File System for Solaris
it's not completely clear to me how this filesystem is used and how you are planning to manage your alternate service, so the following may or may not be useful... I will clear up exactly what I was hoping for. Want I wanted is to mirror 2 disks on 2 different machines, so that both disks always have the same data even though one may have failed. What I thought the CacheFS would be able to do this since files are kept in different location but are identical to the server location. The above comments make it clear that this may not work well in a fail over situation, even if I managed to setup the disconnected mode, which the man pages talks about but does not explain.

[osol-discuss] Re: Distributed File System for Solaris
My manager asked me if I could a mirror copy of our /var/mail on another system, just in case the system went down. He suggested that Windows has DFS (Distributed File System) and I said I would look into it. Microsoft's DFS is a method for creating another copy of your data and being able to point clients to it on the fly. The closest analog on Solaris is NFS client failover, where you can list multiple locations to mount something from. It's best used with read-only mounts, as then the location info is in the kernel and failover is transparent. Sun hasn't provided a tool to do the copies; I'd suggest periodic rsync. Thanks for the replys and I will need to have a closer look at rsync, but I just thought since cachefs was there and working it would be a simple thing to do. How do you want to be able to access e-mail when the main server is down? Do you need something that just works for everyone, or do you need something for just a few people? How are people accessing the e-mail - IMAP or NFS access to /var/mail? The truth is that our main building is going to be rewired and there are going to be some major power outage over weekends, so the plan was to use an off site machine we already have to offer some basic services when the main servers are down like e-mail and web for the people who don't have a life ;-) Over the weekend I thought of CacheFS which comes will solaris which allows you to have a local copy of a network drive, so that it can improve the NFS server performance and scalability by reducing server and network load.. My joy was short lived when I relaises that when the server goes down your local copy of that NFS is not accessable. I don't see why CacheFS can not work in this situation, so that if there is a local version of the file use it and not just hang... I don't think CacheFS is a good match here. There is a disconnected mode where the server isn't consulted, but in my experience you can't ensure that all blocks of all files will be available in the cache. Also, CacheFS doesn't work with NFSv4 :-( As I said at first glance Cachefs looked perfect for the jobs and it was so easy to set up, but by the looks of it it may be better to start using rsync. The NFSv4 point is interesting and it looks like cachfeFS will become another EOL product.

If you don't want it remove it, but at least you have the choice and I find myself not install as much software from sunfreeware.com as I did with Solaris 9. Most of this software is aimed at the desktop and developers which is important since you want users to install the OS and go. Not like previous release when you spend a few days getting the packages you really wanted. One solution could be to introduce a new Solaris Software Group called Server Group which does not have any of the desktop stuff.
