Export samba user configurations for backup or migration
pdbedit -e smbpasswd:/somedir/somefile.backup (file name is user choice)
Import samba user configurations from existing smbpasswd file:
pdbedit -i smbpasswd:/somdir/somefile

I almost posted a few minutes ago claiming weak google foo.
So you want a GUI login screen where the user names are _NOT_ listed?
(in Gnome):
gconftool-2 --direct
--config-source=xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type bool
--set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true
Yes, I did a quick google and found my answer first try. Wanted to list
the user names currently in the samba database:
pdbedit -L gave me a simple list
pdbedit -L -v gave me a verbose list
Rinse, repeat and read the man page...

okay, I've never tripped over this command.
Background - I've known for some time that the command ntpdate was
deprecated. The command sntp is one alternative as is ntpd -q. I kinda
liked the ntpdate allowing one to specify the ntp server of choice but
one should probably maintain the time
Okay, stop me if you've heard this one before...
I keep having to chase printers that for what ever good reason get their
IP addresses changed. I do not control the networks upon which these
printers reside; I am not able to setup dhcpd with pools of IPs for like
devices or reserve IPs based
Printers are a pain. Networks are a pain. But without them we don't have
jobs.
Could you use something to traverse an SMTP tree to get the information?
Just a stab in the dark, and I don't know the tools to do that either.

I might be dangerous if I could get my TLA's and FLA's in order :)
Yes, SNMP is what I had in mind.
If the printer is capable, could it use google print, or HP's version, or
Apple's version of the same technology?
Another thing might be able to have the printer set up as the routers's DMZ

Okay folks, just tripped over something useful.
Check out whowatch. I just did a yum install on a RHEL 5.2 system and
it retrieved from rpmforge.

Okay, so I'm not leading edge here...
Wanted to know how much video memory my workstation system has. Have
other cards that could be swapped out should that be a good thing.
Step one - find video card address within lspci
my example listed as 01:00.0 VGA Compatible Controller...
I don't think that command lspci -v -s 01:00.0 is necessarily reliable
at telling you the actual video RAM for your card. I just ran it on one of
my Atom boxes that I know uses 8 MB of system RAM for the pitiful onboard
video. It reported the following:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller:
Definitely does not work for all gpus :
% /sbin/lspci -vvv -s 04:00.0
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 1080 (rev
a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: eVga.com. Corp. Device 1584
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-

I enjoy using pushd, but I typically forget to use it before changing
directories. Of course there's always 'cd -' which will take you to
the last directory you were in. Just now I had a thought - will this
work with pushd? The answer is yes.
Scenario: You're in /home/foo and you cd to
Excellent trick. I will be using it later today. Thanks!
