GPO errors 1030 and 1058

Author: admin  //  Category: microsoft, technology

After countless hours of scouring the web, the only thing I could do to get rid of these errors was

**DO NOT DO THIS WITHOUT CONSULTING THE NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR**

cd to “\program files\gpmc\scripts” and run “Cscript
GrantPermissionOnAllGPOs.wsf “Enterprise Domain Controllers”
/Permission:Read /Domain:yourdomain.local”.

**This issue can be avoided during upgrade by using “adprep
/domainprep /gpprep” during the domainprep-stage of the domain
upgrade.**

Ubuntu Feisty Vmware Server + Management Interface

Author: admin  //  Category: Open Source, Virtualization, linux, technology

Base Ubuntu Server install

Once your are logged into your new install do

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Once the system has its updates do

sudo apt-get install ssh openssh-server

This will allow you to into the new server via ssh, which is easier to work with.

Once in using ssh, use the following directions:

http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto

Then, also download and untar the vmware management user interface from the vmware server download page via wget

wget [URL of the Management Interface binary tar.gz package]

before running ./vmware-install.pl do the following.

sudo apt-get install libXi6
sudo ln -s -f /bin/bash /bin/sh

Run the install script now, and you should be able to monitor the server from https://ipaddress:8333/

You can create Virtual machines using any vmware server client and connect remotely to the server IP.

Work, or play?

Author: admin  //  Category: life, technology

I set up two servers today, and moved my virtual machines to one of the new servers. I decided to use Ubuntu as my base platform, as I sometimes have raid issues with other linux distros. I’m not crazy about the vmware install on Ubuntu, but it is working. I solved a replication issue in active directory, and fixed an ntp problem. It is days like today that remind me why I love my job so much.

Apache2 rewrite for URL redirects

Author: admin  //  Category: Open Source, technology, web design

If you have an old domain, that you want forwarded to a new domain, you can use the mod_rewrite module to automatically rewrite the url.

This should be put in the mod_rewrite section of the .htaccess file
under the root of the web server so that all requests for
yourolddomain.com are rewritten to yournewdomain.com

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourolddomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://yournewdomain.com/ [L,R=301

Stop Hillary!

Author: admin  //  Category: politics

While I’m not a
big fan of writing about politics, a friend of mine just started a
website called stophillary.org. Now you may think this is a web site
designed to reign in Obama supporters or wild, teeth-bearing
republicans, but in fact, it is just a cool T-shirt site, with a great
logo.

I personally think it would be great to see a bunch of people
running around wearing these t-shirts, regardless of our political
orientation.

Head over to www.stophillary.org and get your t-shirt today!
