In my Windows 10 computer, I have a VirtualBox Ubuntu 16.04 LTS VM in bridge adapter network setting. I have been able to use the hostname of the VM to SSH, Samba, and browse webpages inside the VM. Also, the Windows 10 computer has Cisco AnyCoect Secure Mobility Client installed, so that I can remotely access my company's LAN. Like, remote desktop into the office computer, accessing file server, etc. Recently, the IT department has told us to update the VPN client. After that, I have found the computer unable to resolve the hostname of the VM when the VPN is coected. When the VPN is discoected, the hostname can be resolved again. The updated version of the Cisco client is Version 4.2.03013....

I'm using syslog-ng for a big amount of servers. To get everything more in shape in the folder structure, I use several filters with regex and multiple destination and log lines in the syslog-ng.conf What I would like to accomplish is to let syslog decide where to put the log file based on parts of the hostname and put it in 1 filter, with 1 destination and log line. Example: fl-app-dev-01 => /var/log/fl/dev/app01.log fl-app-prd-32 => /var/log/fl/prd/app32.log fl-man-prd-02 => /var/log/fl/prd/man02.log am-app-prd-12 => /var/log/am/prd/app12.log rd-app-dev-02 => /var/log/rd/dev/app02.log As you can see in the example above, all servers are in the same for...

I have a question about my S.M.A.R.T. daemon configuration. I use two HDDs as RAID 1 observed with smartd. In general these are suspended, i just access them one time in two days. I've noticed the HDDs spin up every 30 minutes, because of some "checks". What do these checks do? What are offline tests for? What is the difference between short and long selftests? I want to do a long test from time to time (e.g. once a month). I want to do a short test more frequently (once a week). It is useful to do an offline test daily? Is my configuration suggestive? Do -n suspend suppress short and long selftests, too? DEFAULT -a -o on -S on -s (O/../.././03|S/../(1|8|22)/./03|L/../15/./03) -n standby -d...

ACPI is tued off by default on my freshly installed Ubuntu 16.04 and it seems because of that only one CPU core is detected, resulting in a lot of performance issues. Tuing ACPI on grub makes the OS unbootable. Ubuntu would get stuck on a page with no relevant error. I searched around and it doesn't seem to be a common problem. I would really appreciate any kind of help. Thank you. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

Preamble: I have a Dell Windows laptop with a Killer Wireless card. I made a partition and installed Ubuntu because I am used to Unix-style development environments (Windows is for light browsing, gaming, entertainment, etc). It seems that Ubuntu does not recognize my wireless card. It does not show up with $ ifconfig. I found this help page: http://www.killeetworking.com/support/knowledge-base/17-linux/20-killer-wireless-ac-in-linux-ubuntu-debian But the instructions are not clear. I have installed drivers before, but usually they are simple $ make; $ make install; procedures. After putting the files where they belong, as the link suggested, I tried that procedure. $ ifconfig; still shows t...

One of the following, as part of the keel command line (editable via GRUB), should work: systemd.unit=multi-user.target will override the default of "graphical.target" – this, along with systemctl set-default, is the equivalent of "default runlevel"; systemd.mask=lightdm.service will forbid a specific service from starting, until manually systemctl unmask'd later; systemd.mask=display-manager.service – same; rescue aka systemd.unit=rescue.target is the equivalent of "single-user runlevel"; not for daily use, but useful when fixing broken GUI.
