[opensuse] network bonding slaves
by Roger Oberholtzer 01 Apr '20

01 Apr '20

We are setting up a cluster of computers that will be connected via a 10 GB network. The switch we are considering is something like https://www.netgear.com/business/products/switches/smart/XS748T.aspx The sales blurb says: Up to eight 10-Gigabit Ethernet links can be aggregated into a virtual 80‑Gbps connection In openSUSE, would this be related to bonding slaves? I have never used this. The goal would be that one computer (primarily a file server type of thing) has a high bandwidth stream for reading and writing data to the switch, where numerous other computers read and write via their single cable. This server would have, say, 4 10 GBit Ethernet ports connected to the switch. Ideally these would appear to be a single network. Am I thinking correctly? Anyone have any advice on this kind of thing? We are targeting an openSUSE Leap system for this server. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] dscreate missing on Leap 15.1
by Boyd Lynn Gerber 01 Apr '20

01 Apr '20

Hello I'm trying to setup an LDAP server on Leap 15.1 >From this document https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/security/single-html/book.secur… I ran zypper install 389-ds yast2 ldap-server These commands do not exist The 389 Directory Server is controlled by 3 primary commands: dsctl Manages a local instance and requires root permissions. Requires you to be connected to a terminal which is running the directory server instance. Used for starting, stopping, backing up the database and more. dsconf The primary tool used for administration and configuration of the server. Manages an instance's configuration via its external interfaces. This allows you to make configuration changes remotely on the instance. dsidm Used for identity management (manage users, groups, passwords etc.). The permissions are granted by access controls, so users can reset their own password or change details of their own account, for example. Creating the 389 Directory Server Instance You create the instance with the dscreate command. It can take a configuration file (*.inf) which defines the instance configuration settings. Alternatively, the command can be run in an interactive mode. All the configuration/setup fail with Details: No such file or directory - /usr/sbin/dscreate or /usr/sbin/dscreate /usr/sbin/dscreate: No such file or directory How do you setup LDAP when the tools are missing Searching for dscreate only finds this /usr/share/dirsrv/inf/dscreate.map Any ideas? This must be a bug with the packaging of 389-ds Regards, -- Boyd Gerber <gerberb(a)zenez.com> 801 849-0213 ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Question on KDM
by Dr.-Ing. Dieter Jurzitza 01 Apr '20

01 Apr '20

Dear listmembers, I am (AFAIK) bound to using KDM rather than i. e. using SDDM because I need two in parallel X11 - sessions running on tty7 and tty8 in my case. The disadvantage right now: because the resolution of my display is quite high (3840x2160) the fonts and the graphics of the login display are *very* small (too small for my old eyes :-)) Anyone having a solution on how to enlarge the size of the KDM login - window? Thank you for looking into this, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Dr.-Ing.
