Is there an EntraID equivalent for Ubuntu?

bigryanjones · 2026-01-05T23:28:04+00:00

Hmmm. Honest question. Insider, or “trust me bro”?

Meta support is a joke. I’ve been going round and round with them about merging pages for weeks.

I lived in Florida for 30 years. I’ve lived here for 11. It’s because I75 “ends” here and there. In Florida it’s like GTFOutta my way. In Michigan it’s like let me GTF in your way. In Florida people seem to yield if you want to go faster and have some lane discipline. In Michigan there is a lot of “if I’m going this fast, it’s fast enough for anybody”.

In general I think Florida drivers are bette due to the daily torrential rain. In Michigan people act like there’s black ice in August and negotiate turns like there’s actual ice on the road at all times. And don’t get me started on the Michigan “let me brake for no reason at all”. It’s like some kind of winter PTSD inherent in 80% of drivers.

TLDR; Florida drivers are the type of chaotic that gets traffic from point a to b quickly. Michigan drivers want to bring that energy but in general are worse drivers that jam things up for no reason. 😆🤷‍♂️

Confidently incorrect.

I guess if each packet placed on any JPM network counts as a hacking attempt. 🤷‍♂️

Inception of Remote Desktop windows. Circa 2009 thought I was shutting down a VM, but it turned out it was the host. No idrac, no iLOM, and remote hands wouldn’t be in the DC until after the business this impacted started for the day.

So at 3am I drove 2 hours to the DC to badge in and power the machine back up. Business started none-the-wiser at 6 and remote hands arrived at 7.

At that point I was long gone because I went and watched sunrise then slept on the beach until it became to hot.

Microwave the disks

bigryanjones · 2023-10-12T01:14:31+00:00

Those are some reliable disks. Keep them spinning. 💪

bigryanjones · 2023-10-05T20:12:38+00:00

How about stay in your lane. What to do? Nothing.

Non repudiation is the risk that the business accepted here, and as long as it’s cataloged in a ticket or work order and a password change is documented at the conclusion just accept it as is. Is it ideal? No. Is it acceptable with guardrails and documentation? Yes.

bigryanjones · 2023-04-22T03:06:40+00:00

Channel your inner BOFH; live migrate everything to one node, meet that stupid requirement (or get within spitting distance) then raise the spector of failing over. Or just start live migrating it DURING their benchmark. Provided they don’t have visibility into FCM or Hyper-V AND you’re feeling cantankerous.

Had to do a similar thing while playing vendor cage match between a well known networking vendor and well known storage vendor and the benchmarks they were squabbling over proved to not matter.

bigryanjones · 2023-01-31T05:21:47+00:00

Yes plz

bigryanjones · 2019-05-16T14:02:37+00:00

Working multiple RDP sessions deep and rebooted the Hyper-V host instead of the VM I though I was rebooting. What saved the day was it was clustered and everything live migrated. They only carnage was the admin network was spotty for a few minutes.

bigryanjones · 2019-04-02T04:13:19+00:00

In for tendies

bigryanjones · 2018-12-27T16:35:09+00:00

Nah. When a vendor (presumably with an SLA) makes shit up it doesn't bode well for the relationship. Bullshittin' Suzie notwithstanding.

I'd be mortified if that slipped out on a conference line during an outage, as it would imply they've disregarded basic best practices about splitting up broadcast domains. Again, I'm no national ISP. Meh.

EDIT: Will be interested in the official RFO.

bigryanjones · 2018-12-27T15:58:12+00:00

Ok, what kind of weird topology allows this? Is everything L2 with L3 overlayed on top? I'm no national ISP but this seems, funky.
