Trying to install 3.0 RC1

[christian]

Stuart,
Sorry but again and again (and I'm afraid this is going to be an endless story), I don't understand the way you post 
Is your goal just to ensure there is enough mess is to make everything difficult to follow
I'm totally puzzled 

Back to your post:
- you quote yourself about another post that has - at least for what I understand - nothing to do with parent thread

Am I wrong?

[stuartiannaylor]

Christian apologies.

I did a rough guide aimed at setting up Zentyal on a VM in the simplest possible manner.

I used OpenOffice.

I can't attach the document as the screen pics and formatting make the file to big to attach.
So its pretty hard to share anything above 128KB.

Now I don't know if its just me but erm 128KB! ? wow thats a tight squeeze for practically anything.

So I post the guide in the forum.
Copy and paste loses all the formatting and screen shots.
I think sod it I will just edit it manually.

I do and the end result is the post.

My question is simple.
Why is this so hard?

[christian]

Because the right place, at least here, is to use "HowTo" structure.

But why do you post this here  and then you apologize...

Just for fun, have a look at all these posts where you "apologize" after having done something unexpected 

[stuartiannaylor]

You will have to tell me what you are showing me there Christian.

I apologise for my stupidity again but how does this help?

[christian]

If you want/need to publish some guide, this is the right place as this is the "community documentation repository"

[stuartiannaylor]

? 

But where do you publish? There isn't the option. Not for me anyway.

I am logged in and what I get is.

Template for community articles

Please, when writing a new article in this wiki try to use the following header in order to ease maintenance of the community documentation repository:

    Title:
    Author(s):
    Date: DD MMM YYYY (ex: 6 Jun 2011)
    Version(s): 1.4, 2.0, 2.1, etc
    Zentyal profiles: Gateway, UTM, Office, etc

Why is it all so confusing and disparate?

Hey I can edit and attach files now! Wow thats a surprise.

Quite frankly I am sick of having to apologise.
There are reasons why.
Its pretty apparent and hopefully obvious that I have been deliberately highlighting the truth of the original thread.
http://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,11805.msg48041.html#msg48041

I apologise because this is farcical!

Can we have a discussion and poll on the state of the current community site and its suitability?

[christian]

     
I'm totally lost 

[stuartiannaylor]

The whole control aspect. Why earlier and it has been for ages have I had no mechanism to post?

Why do firstly have my permissions been changed?

I have pondered on exactly what and how you actually submit things.

Staying away from that.

What an ass of a system!!

It is confusing, even to someone who speaks English natively (if American can be considered English ). Stuart's frustration is clear, and some of it I understand. But overall it seems all out of proportion and so, confusing.

-snip away the off topic part

Anyway http://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,11868.msg48403.html#msg48403

I had group polices working in that I could view the directory with the win7 group policy manager.
Added a group policy and in zentyal added a group.

Now I can't connect.

I would post the samba log but its 1.8 MB.

I don't actually know what the problem is. So I don't want to post it on trac yet.
I am in a catch-22 where I can't share the log. I am pretty sure because I had it working and after edits it is now broken that the log would be pretty useful.

Anybody else firstly managed to get group policies working?
I made a mistake and ran ahead with samba4 and never cloned my VM before killing it.

[mod edit by robb] I removed your accusations of biased council members. Please keep a thread ontopic. For the accusations part: yes you can discuss if you think anyone in the community is biased or not but do that with that community member. You don't go and post slander in a random thread. Please have a look again at the code of conduct. You may expect anyone in the community to act accordingly, including yourself.

[stuartiannaylor]

PS Disclaimer.

After reading I hope nobody thinks I am talking about Sam and Christian.
I also hope you two realise that as well.

Did you manage to get any further with the group policy manager?

Some progresses here and there but also some surprises like this one:

Code: [Select]

Sep  3 00:41:37 zentyaltest kernel: [21627.401159] init: zentyal.s4sync main process (13299) killed by PIPE signal
Sep  3 00:41:37 zentyaltest kernel: [21627.401261] init: zentyal.s4sync main process ended, respawning
that is flooding syslog 

That comes from Samba 4, and it´s not the first time I've seen a post about it on the forums.
I'm building a second server at the moment to do a clean Zentyal 3.0 install, prefer to let it run side by side with the 2.2 server.

Cheers.
