Hmm, it didn't have same problem. Odd.
Maybe I wasn't running searches.
@84104 yeah I think BDB might block searching while it's indexing
so if your index generated before any searches were run you wouldn't have seen any errors
I could be talking out my ass though - my knowledge of the internals of BDB are very limited.
@voretaq7 Searches (well, kinit auth in this case) was actually working while those error messages were happening.
@84104 so just updates (to any element of the affected object) then?
@voretaq7 Not sure, didn't try adding new entries during that time.
I think I just shouldn't have been looking at the logs.
19:07
@84104 Logs R Bad, mmmkay?
@voretaq7 Remember, winners don't do drugs. Therefore, if you're not winning, you might as well do drugs.
wow... we have fewer Low Quality posts than we do close votes now...
Never liked that saying. Doesn't really apply if you're in a drug-taking competition. :/
The more you know.....
(...the more you drink tape head cleaner to try to forget. Dear god the stupid - it BURNS!)
Hmm. The stupid sounds a lot like my Gonorrhea.

@lsiunsuex no
ended up just buying it anyway
since "technically" I should have been buying it for my 2011 MBA anyway
@MDMarra What's an MBA, besides the obvious master's of business asshattery?
macbook air
someone gimme a shoot from the hip solution to this problem
the file share is down to 5.25gb free of 256gb
can't spend the kind of money i need for a SAN
so a: go through, folder by folder and burn shit to DVD that can be archived - that'll take me a month and i have better shit to do with my time
b: buy another lto 3 drive, take an old server with the same space and turn on fileserver 2 and map new drives for all employees
c: ?
@lsiunsuex Delete all files older than X days, per the data retention policy.
(what? :-)
data retention policy for some clients is 7 years - thats the problem
19:20
@lsiunsuex Delete users porn/video/music collections.
@lsiunsuex that's their policy, not yours. They can pay for offline archive storage at $100/GB. :-)
been there done that - it is really 99% business related
So is this home directories? Are they auto-mounted?
just an every day dumping ground - word docs, excel, voice recordings, etc...
automounted in that the shares they have access to they connect to when they login, but no roaming profiles or crazy shit like that
@lsiunsuex Crazy shit like that would make your life better as you could remap it elsewhere without fragmenting things.
19:23
we've considered roaming and citrix type things - we dont have the bandwidth / server space for it
i'd love to - but not now - someday
After reading Jeff's latest blog post, I'm thinking about selling my two existing monitors and upgrading to those sketchy korean ebay-only $300 2560x1440 IPS panels
Anyone else want to do it first and test for problems with a 2011 MBA and 2012 MBP :)
2560x1440 for $300 ? where
@MDMarra That is interesting.
Is the whole 2-3 minute logon/logoff thing for roaming profile all that common? My padawan's set up a 2k8r2 server with WTS and is having a devil of a time with it.
@lsiunsuex codinghorror.com
ebay
19:40
@Adrian Did they enable folder redirection?
@MDMarra no
They may have. It doesn't use a DC though, runs off Samba.
At least not a real DC
@Adrian What causes that? Only cause I know is having a giant roaming profile that needs to be copied over the network EVERY login/logout.
19:57
@MikeyB It should use an algorithm to calculate deltas and only send across what's different
UNLESS he's set it to not store a local copy at all
@JoelESalas Yes, it should. Does Windows actually do that? Curious to see documentation.
Hmm. It may not be storing a local. OTOH, it blows up when going between 2k8 and the 2k8r2 boxes, so that may not be the case
@Adrian Those should both be version2 profiles
20:11
@MikeyB My experience through WinXP says "no"
Anyone know any SAs in the Philly area that are good and wouldn't hang themselves being on the same team as me?
We're getting ready to re-post the job for the SA that left yesterday
@MDMarra I'll come work with you for 3 weeks :-)
hahaha
There's talk of making the position contract-to-hire because of those shenanigans
But it's currently listed as a regular FTE job on the internal site
It'll go to the public in like 5 days, I think
@MDMarra You mentioned hanging... are you looking to avoid SAs who'd specifically kill themselves by hanging, or is it more of a general exclusion against suicidal admins?
@HopelessN00b I imagine it's just the hanging (and resulting voiding all over the floor).
20:17
Yeah, we try to keep the floors clean
Ceilings too? some suicides are messier on the cieling than the floor, after all.
I rarely look up
@HopelessN00b as long as it doesn't drip on the servercabinet, it's fine
Spoken like a man who's never stepped on a bloody chunk of brain.
@HopelessN00b why do you think raised floors have holes in them?
20:28
Because if they didn't, the urine would just pool up on the datacenter floor, obviously.
@LucasKauffman so you can smell the decomp from the bodies stuffed in the underfloor
and also to prevent the buildup of explosive gasses from same.
@voretaq7 EXACTLY

Q: Best solution for a static web file server, with modular, cache, and cache busting support

BotskoNetI've long been dreaming of software that I could implement in my projects. I've seen and used different packages for this, but I'd love to have a system that would: Allow me to load javascript/css "modules" on a per-page basis. I could define the js/css modules and any dependancies and like sta...

Anyone have opinions on this? Because of its one and only tag I'm leaning towards stripping it naked and shoving it out an airlock...
@voretaq7 VTC
Doesn't look like a very good question anyway.
20:31
what's that unix based router/firewall everyone uses these days?
@LucasKauffman pfsense?
@voretaq7 jup
(it's so much easier playing in low quality posts - so much more obvious what is utter crap :P)
ah ffs, I clicked to fast, didn't see it was do not close instead of close :<
@LucasKauffman heh, well you can go to the question and cast a close vote
20:43
done and done
what do you know, a post by Rajat with just links...
@LucasKauffman sigh where?

Q: setting up a developing environment to work with valid CA files, and valid SSL Certificates, also test revocation

Pentium10We have an in house project that needs to allow USB token based authentication. We managed to understand how this works, and how to setup our environment (Apache, HTTPS support, ask for SSL verified certificates in browser, identify the user from the certificate). Mostly we studied after http://...

^ I feel bad for this guy.
@voretaq7 recommended deletion
@LucasKauffman hmm... you know I don't think we have a "has votes to delete" thing in /review.
I shall pop up ze good old activity tab!
or just look at history
btw why do we have a limit on flags?
@LucasKauffman so the moderators don't get annoyed :)
20:55
i'd be awesome if you'd get your flag returned if it turned out to be valid
@voretaq7 but there is so much to flag :(
and I'll let that one live unless others vote to delete it -- it's a for shit answer on a for shit question that really only begs for links
hey if you want your marshal badge don't point out stuff like that until tomorrow when you can flag again :-)
Remember - with my diamond comes the ability to delete all the shit I see, and this week's work is basically "Push button. WAIT. Push button. WAIT." so I have a LOT of spare time to delete shit :-)
@voretaq7 indeed! I'm now saying unsure on some questions, but then I'm all:
all though I think that with 1.6k questions yet, rajat will probably generate about 10 flags tomorrow
don't forget the close votes list
which is now heavier than the low quality list
@voretaq7 that's going to be a hell of a lot slower considering we need 5 votes on each question and we only get 40 per day
@LucasKauffman thats fine -- we can wait :)
21:05
@voretaq7 is not contributing an article to its original author also a reason to recommend deletion or flag?
BTW I let most of the Rajat answers you flagged live (they're answers -- they're WRONG (and should be downvoted), but they're answers :-)
@LucasKauffman yeah - there's a whole thing on plagiarism in the SO blog somewhere about that

A: Server setup - Removing unnecessary Ubuntu 10.4 LTS packages

RajatI don't thing you can remove gcc because it part of kernel ubuntu

@LucasKauffman If we delete the wrong answers and comments saying why they're wrong people will never learn...
21:06
true
that said I've been going back and forth on which of Rajat's bad answers I let live and which I strike entirely
we should get some English.SE involved to decipher some of his answers
-2
A: Windows Virtual PC and VirtualBox on the same PC

Rajatyes can have Virtual Box (sun) you install that but can use for the same guest, why bcoz both come from .exe file setup win virtual software and virtualbox from sun also come with .exe file so cant edit any of them.

@voretaq7 some of his answers are just unreadable :/
@LucasKauffman Rule 42: Anything that crashes my English parser gets deleted.
BTW I added some axioms to the answer on the capacity planning question - If you guys can think of more general-case wisdom tack it on...

Q: Fedora 16 - DNS Configuration

JackKnowsIs there a simple way to configure the DNS on Fedora 16.

check the answer :')
Oh for the love of kittens....
4 mins ago, by voretaq7
I can only assume that @PauskaSock managed some l33t h4x to impersonate its owner and post that. Though I did LOL muchly.
21:21
@JoelESalas Yeah, not entirely sure why it doesn't work. I think it's partially the undocumented bodge-job that my predecessor did on the 2k8 box that's breaking things.
's like a who's-who of the comms room

@voretaq7 I was wrong, it won't be 10 it will be 31 to be precise
all dead, link-only answers
well, regular astroglide is water-based, not silicone based.
And I don't know of any silicon based lubricants. That sounds.... *unpleasant*.
Fuck you too markdown. With silicon based lube.

the comments! reddit ftw! :P
21:27
but yeah, he's still proper fucked.... but hey at least they used lube?
@voretaq7 what's the difference in feel?
Silicones are inert, synthetic compounds with a variety of forms and uses. Typically heat-resistant and rubber-like, they are used in sealants, adhesives, lubricants, medical applications (e.g., breast implants), cookware, and insulation. Silicones are polymers that include silicon together with carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and sometimes other chemical elements. Some common forms include silicone oil, silicone grease, silicone rubber, and silicone resin. Properties Some of the most useful properties of silicones include: *Low thermal conductivity *Low chemical reactivity *Low toxicity *Th...
versus
Silicon ( or ) is a chemical element with the symbol Si and atomic number 14. A tetravalent metalloid, it is less reactive than its chemical analog carbon, the nonmetal directly above it in the periodic table, but more reactive than germanium, the metalloid directly below it in the table. Controversy about silicon's character dates to its discovery: silicon was first prepared and characterized in pure form in 1824, and given the name silicium (from , flints), with an -ium word-ending to suggest a metal, a name which the element retains in several non-English languages. However, its fin...
Which would you rather be using to reduce friction?
(Hint: Silicon dioxide is the fancy chemical name for "gritty beach sand")
dafuq I just lost 30 rep o.O
21:31
and the difference between water-based lube and silicone based lube... well to be blunt silicone based lube feels like you've smeared things with bearing grease, water-based lube tends to be slicker/more natural feeling IMHO.
@LucasKauffman heh I probably deleted something of yours at some point today
pfo

"I was hoping maybe the silicone might work like nutrients for the circuit board."
@pfo Not that it's important or anything but why is my MBP eating my rock collection with this OM NOM CRUNCH sound?
I'm off to bed gents, nn!
@LucasKauffman Don't spill any lube on your laptop! :-)

Hey guys
I'm trying to sign up to serverfault, but I keep gettingthis:
>Server Fault requires cookies for authentication -- are your browser cookies enabled for this domain?
And they are allowed (in fact they're in my exceptions as being allowed)
@Pureferret Clear browser cache, restart computer, wave a dead chicken over it?
On Chrome, in Clear Browsing Data: Clear the Cach or Clear all Cookies?
Clear the cache seems to have worked.
Thanks @MichaelHampton
@Pureferret Don't forget the dead chicken waving, just as a preventative measure.
3
@Pureferret maybe make sure serverfault.com, *.serverfault.com, *.stackoverflow.com and *.stackexchange.com are allowed?
22:32
He left already.
22:42
can someone wait like 15 seconds and then @ me?
@MDMarra farty fart
shit
didnt work
trying to get chat to work with notification center
@MDMarra why would you want that? :)
So I can preview messages to see if you fucks are worth switching to the window for
I thought I'd be able to make it show me messages that I've been @'ed in
So far I can't get it to do anything
@MDMarra Thanks. I think. =)
22:48
@MDMarra We're not. Ever. :-P
@MDMarra How are you interfacing with chat?
The official SE API supports your SE inbox
@MDMarra Don't worry, you aren't missing anything.
And @ notifications go into your SE inbox
@MarkHenderson I saw someone on apple.se added it to their notification center and chat.stackexcahnge asked for permission to use notification center
I assume it's the same magic that lets it do desktop notifications with Chrome
@MarkHenderson I only see notifications in SE inbox if I'm not actually in chat at the time.
22:49
I just assumed it would magically work
Come on, WHAT ever magically works?
@MDMarra oh hey you're running Safari 6 now right?
Are all the markdown inserting widgets gone from your editors too?
Not sure what you're referencing, sir
22:51
or should I restart safari now that I have nothing important open and see if it fixes itself? :P
Ok someone @ me in like 5 seconds
@MDMarra It still doesn't work.
Wrong, fucker!
IT DOES WORK
SUCK IT WITH YOUR MOUTH, FREAKS
someone do it again
22:54
@MDMarra Well, what else WOULD we suck it with?
I mean, this is true
@voretaq7 Ohhh, is that only on Ask A Question?
ok relaunching Safari fixed it...
yeah mine works
@MDMarra no it was all over, but just SF apparently too
so fucked up safari cache glitch is my guess
ok so chat alerts and banners work
22:55
@MDMarra Yes, but it's going to start getting real annoying real fast. Watch and see.
but
alerts dont stay
@MichaelHampton Like the BONK noise isnt already annoying?
which is fine by me
@voretaq7 my audio is muted 99% of the time
@MDMarra See, THIS is why I miss the East Coast. You buggers can keep your humidity and your 20 feet of snow each year though.
22:56
yup
What's wrong with 20 feet of snow?
@MichaelHampton Lot less shoveling if it comes down as rain.
@Adrian We have people who do that for us.
Now all we need is notification status sync between devices
so my twitter on ipad and twitter on iphone and desktop twitter dont all have (1) on them when I've already read it on one of the devices
@MichaelHampton for being blue.
@MDMarra U ask for too much - twitter direct messages gets all skitchy on different devices...
23:00
@MDMarra Notification!
@MDMarra Notification 2
@MDMarra Notification 3
and that's Twitter's system
@MDMarra Notification 4
@MarkHenderson You, sir, are a dildo
@MDMarra Notification 5
@MarkHenderson Watchudo cat?!?
23:00
@MDMarra Notification 6
It only shows a single banner, though. And they're dismissed after 3 seconds or so and don't sit in the notificationcenter
OK, Go-Home time for me -- BBL :-)
23:42
@Mdmarra you here mate?
yo
whats up
oh nuthin
:D
bahahaha
