00:00

@MarkHenderson I mean, what happened to the development of it? there's a bunch of discussion on the jqueryUI wiki about RAH RAH MAKE GRID PLUGIN HERE ROADMAP 2 years ago, and then nothing

Mark Henderson

Ah

nfi

Aaron

or is this 'welcome to open source software, sucker'

Mark Henderson

@Aaron Haha probably a bit of that yeah

We stopped using CDNs after our missing plugin issue, so I guess you just have to sort of plan in advance for things just stopping in their tracks

jscott

@MDMarra Re: -Passthru: What Mark Henderson said. It's neat because you can modify an object in a way which would invalidate the reference to it (e.g. Change a User's CN) but pass it thru and the modified object pops out the other side.

Google/Amazon has just freaked me out a bit...

I just searched for 'amazon' because I was too lazy to type amazon.com, and The Google search results page showed all of my recent amazon orders, and when the items had been shipped.

00:08

@Zoredache via gmail or skynet?

Zoredache

From google.com

84104

@Zoredache Yeah, but what was the results source?

Zoredache

Not sure what you mean

pauska

@Zoredache afraid of google knowing that you just ordered 10x22 gallon lube?

sorry, 55 gallons

Zoredache

No, I am just afraid they might have a buggy implementation, and that someone else might find that out.

pauska

00:12

wow, do we have a sense of humor or what!

Zoredache

I don't mind Google knowing, but my coworkers is completely different...

MDMarra

@ewwhite around?

ewwhite

00:33

Yes.

@MDMarra Sitting in a Buffalo Wild Wings with my MacBook, building servers.

Joel E Salas

@ewwhite Your poops will be bad

ewwhite

@JoelESalas That's why I'm sitting. If I get up, it'll all come out...

MDMarra

@ewwhite You're that guy?

Matt Bear

@ewwhite eww

MDMarra

@ewwhite am I working tonight?

ewwhite

I guess so... if you want.

@MDMarra I need to do more moonlight work

back off, Joel!

Joel E Salas

@MDMarra You got the lockdown on Windows

MDMarra

00:41

OU's can be renamed easily, right?

MDMarra

NO, YOU'D BETTER LET ME HANDLE THIS

But yes, they can

It's only a problem when you have an LDAP, but not AD-aware app that uses LDAP queries and you have a searchbase defined inside of that OU structure

like ACS or something

"According to suicide statistics, Monday is the favored day for self-destruction"

The largest number of children born to one woman is recorded at 69. From 1725-1765, a Russian peasant woman gave birth to 16 sets of twins, 7 sets of triplets, and 4 sets of quadruplets.

Mark Henderson

@MattBear And that was before current fertility drugs

jscott

@MDMarra Renaming OUs can also muck up your item level targeting if DN/OU/etc is queried.

Mark Henderson

That's insane

A modern, dual-clutch DSG 8-speed gearbox is a thing of beauty

Matt Bear

drag from the transmission fluid on the stall converter, = appx 2 mpg

Mark Henderson

Compared to your standard 5/6 speed manual gearbox that hasn't changed much since the invention of the tractor

Also consider the fact that a person who buys a car with a manual gearbox is far more likely to give the car a boot in 2nd gear and hold it to the redline...

Matt Bear

@MarkHenderson its calculated in top gear, at 55 mph

Mark Henderson

The Australian $5 to $100 notes are made of plastic.

^ Incorrect. They are made of polymer, and all our notes are

That dates this page to at least 12 years ago

We changed the $5 in about '89 and $100 in about '95 or something

So actually more like 15 years

MDMarra

01:02

@jscott yeah but who does that :)

jscott

@MDMarra Well, uh, I, uh... this one guy I know... I won't name names... But he wasn't to stoked when all his GPPs when out of scope because the OU changed underneath.

MDMarra

You filter based on OU though?

At that point, why wouldn't you just have separate policies?

Q: SSD Asserted Errors, Dell server

I have installed Crucial SSDs on a new Dell r620 server

installed Crucial SSDs on a new Dell r620

Crucial SSDs

jscott

@MDMarra There were four "options" for this application, each applied to a specific building, so there was a single GPO "Application X settings" but it had ILT for each building's (OU) users' required settings. Needless to say, that guy changed it to not depend on ILT.

That's actually a question we're dealing with now -- more, smaller single-serving GPOs vs survey everything and consolidate into domain, building, department, staff, student policies. There's no in-house rules, so are current setup is pretty unorganized and it drives me nuts.

MDMarra

I always do single or tightly grouped policies in GPOs

Matt Bear

well... thats 8 ubuntu servers up and running =/

MDMarra

01:11

So things like:

`WSUS - Main Campus`

`Windows Firewall - Lab Port Exceptions`

`GPP Group Preferences - Local Admins`

damn markdown

jscott

There's also a ton of shit in our GP that just isn't warranted. The "old way" of thinking was "lock the users down" -- which is fucking waste of time. We got everyone to limited users a few years ago, so most of the lock-down is just annoying. There's no justification for hundreds of applied policy setting when they don't do anything but frustrate the users.

ewwhite

@MDMarra all about $4000 Sandisk SSD's

@mdmarra go create some OU's... and do Active Directory stuff.

jscott

That I get, we couple (and name) our GPOs in a somewhat similar way.

- FCSD (district wide) Office 2010
- FCSD FEP 2012
- Transportation Favorites

But then there's tons of single-setting GPOs, many which do nothing more than create a desktop shortcut or IE favorite. Then these aren't tied to group/OU, but rather just linked all the hell over the place. Just need to create some guidelines that our team can follow.

MDMarra

@ewwhite I would if I could authenticate to the VPN!

pauska

mark, ever used that script that extracts updates from windows?

it works for office2010, but a bit unsure about office2013..

jscott

01:19

For instance, just today, one of our guys is doing Windows 8 testing. When doing a student logon, the start menu tiles would never appear. There were something like 37 GPOs walked to get that logon. We found the setting, and set it to "not configured", but nobody knew why it was in place or what it actually did -- it didn't even have any effect on our XP/7 users as it only applied to very specific redirection cases.

MDMarra

@pauska not sure what script you mean

or what "extract updates from windows" means

Matt Bear

ugggh adding endpoint to azure takes forever lol

pauska

@MDMarra found it.. technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178995.aspx

scroll down to "To extract the .msp files from a test computer and copy them to the Updates folder"

jscott

@pauska Are you rolling out 2013 or just testing/playing?

pauska

@jscott Only Lync 2013 locally on clients

we are using 2013 on the it department.. no problems so far except some GAL troubles with outlook

MDMarra

01:22

@pauska Oh, I just note the KB number on a fresh reference system and manually download

thats a cool trick though

pauska

yeah this saves you that hour of manual work

it exports the msp files, so you just put them in the updates folder.. done

Joel E Salas

TechNet makes me sad because there's no real equivalent for Linux

MDMarra

meh, if you do it every month it's only 5 minutes worth of work

the first time is a pain though

pauska

so my point still stands

stop arguing with me, I'm always right

2

jscott

@MDMarra Time to write a PS cmdlet to do all that for you then.

MDMarra

01:28

@jscott I had a batch script where you could download msu's to a specific folder and it would extract them, copy the cabs, mount a reference .wim, add the updates to the offline wim, commit the changes, and then delete all of the .cabs that were just added

manual processes are for suckers

jscott

Oh sweet, no shame in batching it up.

MDMarra

windows imaging was my bitch

voretaq7

@MDMarra That's OK, Windows Update will make you its bitch.

Mark Henderson

01:56

@jscott - I just read one of your answers about a "laptop cart" from 2010

May I ask... wtf is a laptop cart?

jscott

@MarkHenderson It's a cart that holds laptops?

Mark Henderson

@jscott There seems to be somethign about charging them and plugging them in?

jscott

A mobile computer lab

voretaq7

@MarkHenderson they make custom carts for schools that integrate a bunch of chargers (usually with one 15/20A power plug)

jscott

Yes, that picture isn't the model we use. We have our carts (each holds 30 laptops) wired with AC and network.

voretaq7

01:58

I've seen some with a WAP on the too

jscott

Yes, wap and network printer on top.

Mark Henderson

Interseting

I've never seen anything like that before

jscott

Laptops now out number our desktops throughout the district.

Mark Henderson

That must be a nightmare

jscott

Rooms dedicated as "computer labs" are going away.

voretaq7

01:59

it started as a cost-cutting measure -- a few laptop carts can serve several classrooms, and there's less fighting over what class can schedule the computer lab

pauska

you know what the worst part about managing a large number of laptops is?

jscott

@MarkHenderson It's actually not terrible, and it's getting better. We moved to 5Ghz aboru two years ago and that made a big difference.

@pauska MISSING FUCKING KEYS?!

pauska

the fucking updates

people never let them patch

instead of shutting down (with defaults to install updates while doing so) they just slam the lid down

jscott

I swear the students must collect keys for their poetry or something.

voretaq7

@pauska that's the great thing about the carts - they come home at the end of the day

pauska

02:00

with oldschool computer labs you could WoL all the pc's and patch them...

Mark Henderson

@jscott Your laptops have keys?

jscott

@pauska Wired cart +WOL (or BIOS power on time) + WSUS

voretaq7

@MarkHenderson on the keyboards, don't yours?

jscott

@MarkHenderson Keyboard keys. The kids love to tear them off.

Mark Henderson

@jscott Oh haha of course

pauska

02:01

@jscott tear off their fingernails next time. I'm sure the looting will stop.

ewwhite

virtual center

MDMarra

oh

am I doing stuff with it?

ewwhite

NO

So the devs of this new client have a script

and they say it doesn't work on cloned RHEL Virtual Machines

so they want hand-build VMs instead of clones

MDMarra

puppet~

ewwhite

02:22

@MDMarra no, why wouldn't a script work on a VM clone?

pauska

it relies on a h/w serial number from the mainboard?

ewwhite

@pauska it's a web developer....

pauska

dongle shit

oh

ewwhite

I'm trying to find the script...

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite It'll be interesting to find out. I suspect you'll be debugging their piece of shit script before long.

Joel E Salas

02:23

@ewwhite No reason whatsoever

MDMarra

@ewwhite Was doing the obligatory "puppet everything".

ewwhite

@MichaelHampton they rejected our help...

MDMarra

@ewwhite should I be able to resolve those servers by hostname over this VPN link?

Joel E Salas

@MDMarra ~*~*~ P u P p E t ~*~*~

ewwhite

but we suspect that previous configured settings/accounts might be interferring with the new dev's very particular scripts

@MDMarra I can

I picked up a CableCard from Comcast today for my HDHR. I haven't activated it yet as Comcast's activation system is down... Surprise, right?
But I popped the card in so it's ready to go and turned the unit on. The "ready" light lit up. "That's odd, it shouldn't work until it's activated". Guess who's got a lot more channels than he pays for. =]

MDMarra

@ewwhite yep

@ChrisS Winning. Will you just run this until it's disabled? "Opps, did't realize I had to do anything. I plugged it in and it worked"

@jscott Well I'm certainly not going to call and tell them they made a mistake. =]

Though I've been surfing around on the channels. I have quickly remembered why I'm not willing to pay for all those extra channels.

@jscott What if nano let him do the edit? You gotta try man, that's the first rule of hacking

ewwhite

oh my...

jscott

@ewwhite Out of curiosity how would they know if they had "two new, clean VMs" -- do they want to watch you install the OS manually?

ewwhite

Yes.

jscott

02:39

Do they pay hourly?

ewwhite

@jscott hells no.

jscott

Maybe find a youtube video of a CentOS install and desktop share it out to them.

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite My first thought was that you should let them order elsewhere, as this customer's "dev guy" is going to be more trouble than he's worth.

ewwhite

So what would you do?

jscott

I'm not sure what a hand-crafted, artisanal install of an OS would have over a scripted/cloned one.

MDMarra

02:41

@jscott inconsistency

@jscott It'll be organic, free-range, home-grown, locally-sourced and cage-free

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite Depends on my relationship with the client... If it's someone I've been working with for a long while, I'd advise them straight out that their new guy is an idiot and they should get rid of him ASAP.

jscott

02:41

@MDMarra That's called "character" in the art world ... heathen.

Al Ummat مجاهد

@ChrisS I see

MDMarra

@ewwhite did you see the email I sent?

jscott

@ewwhite If the client was decent (besides this new dev) I would entertain the installs. It is only two VMs. Hate to burn a bridge over so little. But I would then press for exact details into "what doesn't work" with a clone. If they come up with BS, call them on it.

Chris S

SyFy is terrible... really terrible... I'm watching some Haunted thing right now. Well, it's on in the background. It's a relatively well acted classic ghost story.

@MDMarra how?

Michael Hampton

02:50

ewwhite

@MichaelHampton it's pastebin.com/58XEr6f9

Michael Hampton

Oh god, they let all their developers edit the config files without sudo.

jscott

Someone doesn't like visudo

Michael Hampton

And those two guys can do whatever they want to the database.

ewwhite

I'm spinning up a fresh VM on my infra

because I don't know that this script would work anywhere

Michael Hampton

02:55

Haha, the real kicker is disabling root ssh login. Which is totally meaningless since they've opened holes for their users wide enough to drive an 18-wheeler full of rootkits through.

MDMarra

I love that mysql pw

jscott

@MDMarra Is it the name of a Ke$ha song or something?

ewwhite

@MDMarra I changed the password

MDMarra

...

ewwhite

so seeing that, is the client justified in rejecting our Linux because that script fails?

Michael Hampton

02:59

@ewwhite The script never creates the directory /var/scripts which it tries to chmod. That's their fault.

mossy

'ello

@ewwhite Knowing what exactly fails would go a long way. Especially if they're only developing this script on their test machines.

Oh fuck, turn off SEL, turn off firewall, install webmin...

And there's a command-line interface to Drupal? Oh boy.

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite Oh god. RUN AWAY

I wonder if they know what the word "detritus" means.

Detritus

In biology, detritus is non-living particulate organic material (as opposed to dissolved organic material). It typically includes the bodies or fragments of dead organisms as well as fecal material. Detritus is typically colonized by communities of microorganisms which act to decompose (or remineralize) the material. In terrestrial ecosystems, it is encountered as leaf litter and other organic matter intermixed with soil, which is referred to as humus. Detritus of aquatic ecosystems is organic material suspended in water, which is referred to as marine snow. Theory Dead plants or ...

ewwhite

so given this, the scripts have no sanity-checking...

it's a pretty shitty way of deploying a system

jscott

So they're doing a puppet-y thing with all the svn checkouts, but they're against using a config management tool?

Michael Hampton

Yeah this is a "developer" who's never heard of deployment best practices, or even that deployment tools exist.

ewwhite

03:06

@jscott who knows... the client hired a new dev

and he came in asking about Ubuntu

I told them we wouldn't support ubuntu... and this became a political battle

pauska

the script doesnt do any error checking at all

Michael Hampton

Of course it doesn't do any error checking, it runs fine on the developer's machine!

ewwhite

@pauska Right... for instance, before we turned machines over to them, I installed epel just to be ncie

jscott

What did he say earlier today....

ewwhite

that clearly would error out here

pauska

03:08

@ewwhite it would not be able to install the package

jscott

6 hours ago, by voretaq7

@jscott If those things are important to you you should be on StackOverflow

pauska

it would still run through all the commands

Michael Hampton

epel-release-whatever.rpm is already installed, you fwucking cwunt

ewwhite

are ACL's common in web systems?

@MichaelHampton you said you did that.

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite Sure, I use ACLs so the web server can read the content, and write to the upload directory.

ewwhite

03:12

so what do I do?

Michael Hampton

I also have a similar setup where four people have to be able to write to the web site, but I have them all named by user in the ACLs...

Does your company bill the clients extra when they do stupid shit and then ask you to clean up after them?

ewwhite

not really

this is a long-time client...

but new dev

but what we need is for <company> to deliver is two additional, clean VMs by 9AM. Again, why don’t you have a RHEL template ready to go? That seems like a no-brainer.

Michael Hampton

I guess I would advise management that this is likely to be a source of a large number of support calls to clean up whatever this idiot dev breaks.

Mark Henderson

@ewwhite Love it when other people tell you what you should be doing

ewwhite

disabling root access, for instance... no-go

Michael Hampton

03:15

Maybe I wouldn't use the word idiot, though...

Mark Henderson

Although I'm guilty of that myself when I found out that a local government had no SNMP monitoring ability on their massive network

ewwhite

we monitor with SNMP, we have root privs... we need backup software and agents.

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite Meh... just kickstart the guy a couple of VMs and wash your hands of the whole thing.

ewwhite

our imaging process has too many things in it.

mossy

Hey guys, noob question here. Can you fire off some suggestions for managing ~25 OS X machines

ewwhite

03:17

too hard to decouple snmp, backup agents, our sshd config files, etc.

@mossy You don't have a OS X server?

MDMarra

Get a couple of Mac Mini servers. Set up Open Directory. Set up Apple SUS for updates. Get ARD licenses. Use WGM to lock down basic stuff (it's like a shitty version of GPO). Get something like Casper for imaging/config management. Then quit before you implement any of it.

jscott

hahahahaha

mossy

@jscott Just a bunch of iMacs right now

jscott

03:20

@mossy Take one. That's your server now.

mossy

@jscott Can't. My iMac is strictly for World of Warcraft pet battles.

jscott

@mossy You can do a lot with just ARD alone. take @MDMarra's advice, but you don't need to buy all that shit just to quit. :)

@mossy I understood "strictly" but after that it was just gibberish.

Michael Hampton

> Earlier we had thought the power on one side dropped, but it's apparent that both sides of power went down. We have A and B side power and UPS with the datacenter so I expect a full explanation how on earth this happened and how they're going to prevent it in the future.

I'm having a fun evening!

ewwhite

@MichaelHampton so is it valid to say that the client's script is reckless?

Michael Hampton

@ewwhite It would be wiser to stick #!/usr/bin/perl in front of a bunch of line noise and run that.

mossy

03:24
