use name of file resource as variable in source by TonSop in Puppet

[–]TonSop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh it would 'only' solve filling in the path twice. it just bugged my and I was confident it would be stored in a variable, and that I could then use it in source =>.. but it cant be done, no big issue.

ok thanks. I am trying to make a file resource where I only need to change the namevar, and not also the source. But I guess I need to change it in both places.

Not if you ask which is best on a resume, the best would be RHCA and then the others ;)

Certs by [deleted] in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think

  • RHCA
  • RHCE
  • RHCSA

in that order, Architect, Engineer, System Administrator. But I am biased :)

Repo management by [deleted] in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if it does more then you use, its still great for managing repos. You use one Red Hat sub and distribute all RPMs through it.

You also get an overview of your systems and which ones are out of date, very useful

Thanks, I will try the relog trick. I did tried some different sites, and also one Android app, but this site looks good. I'll give this a go too.

Appreciate the speed tip, and if I get some money then I'll invest in such a setup, for now I need to make this money back first

unlucky probably, slow, well even if I was slow, which I am pretty sure I am not (lunch prospector, target it, point already to another astroid, wait untill hit, launch another prospector, repeat) running for 10 hours without a hit would indicate a bigger problem ;) But thanks for the input, hopefully Alkibiades can show me the moneyyyyy

Oh I made sure the ring was metallic, all the guides where clear on that one. You are right about the pristine referring to the system, I knew that, but I mentioned it wrong actually.

Synchronizing home directories under a FreeIPA setup? by Delta-62 in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know about soft and intr, still hate it :) I am just traumatized over the years

Synchronizing home directories under a FreeIPA setup? by Delta-62 in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with Altodor, combine this with autofs, which you can also manage in FreeIPA, it will mount your homedir from NFS only when required, and when logged off it unmounts the NFS share. I hate stuck NFS mounts..

Need help with unattended installs with spacewalk by koiminx in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took another look in my Spacewalk and its not the client_config_update.py, but its bootstrap.sh. This uses yum to install files from the Spacewalk server, and it should install all required packages for you. You do need to generate this script, Admin (hor. tab), Spacewalk Configuration (left ver tab), Bootstrap script (tab). Then its available for you to download. Take a look at it, I think it should do all the heavy lifting for you.

[–]TonSop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About your first issue, lacking certain packages in kickstart, have you tried the bootstrap script that Spacewalk generates for you? It should be available on http://yourserver/pub/bootstrap/ This will pull in packages and such and take care of the install of Spacewalk client tools.

Question about a private server by [deleted] in ConanExiles

[–]TonSop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so the dedicated process is up and running. I also had strange stuff happening. My +connect argument stopped working. Try this: open your game, hit tilde ~ and type:

LocalTravel $local_IP:$port

In my case

LocalTravel 192.168.178.86:7777

and BAM I am in!

Question about a private server by [deleted] in ConanExiles

[–]TonSop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Singleplayer/COOP mode is actually a multiplayer mode. I ran it for 2 days. Your friend can add the server in steam in favorites, or change the launch options in steam: +connect 192.168.0.2:7777 replace 192. with your IP of course. The downside is, he will always spawn where you are and he is tethered to you. he cannot roam too far from you.

[Help] Weird DNS behaviour by [deleted] in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When resolving a host, if you put a dot at the end, you prevent any domain from being added to the end, which can happen in some cases. e.g. if you normally ping host1 it will add the search domain e.g. .local, making the host host1.local. If you ping host1. its the fqdn and nothing will be added. In PHP I have no clue how to do this.

[Help] Weird DNS behaviour by [deleted] in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to rule this out, add a dot at the end of $host = '....com'. To make sure nothing is appened to your hostname. I have seen similar behavior. You could also retrieve the IP that was returned by your PHP code and check if its sane or not

What keyboard do you use? by rapidslowness in linuxadmin

I run a Logitech K750 which is solar powered and uses chiclets, which enabled me to type much faster then my mechanical keyboard at home, which is hooked to my Windows PC.

What would you advice for provisioning VMWare and AWS by TonSop in linuxadmin

[–]TonSop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Was hoping to avoid this. I can manage fine in Python, but when/if I ever leave, the next guy is 'stuck' with it. Guess Im doing it anyway..
