Installation and Upgrades / Re: Ubuntu Network share auto login script

Yes, you can do it from Zentyal.  The logon script is in a system share "NETLOGON" and can be controlled by uploading a script file in the Zentyal web interface.

Has anybody else experienced this?  I installed it a couple of times on a VM to test, and have the same problem every time.

Why can't you connect to the new server?  That sounds like an issue that needs to be redressed before attempting to import LDAP

It's not my decision, I'm just a community member.  However, home folders were never, in the history of networking, created for document sharing.  That's what shared folders are for.  In 22 years as a network engineer, I've never once seen home folders used for document sharing except in a peer to peer network nightmare scenario.

Home folders are not for file sharing, they are for storing non-public information... You are looking for shared folders, which are easily created in the "file sharing" link on the admin interface.

Installation and Upgrades / Re: nslookup at client site shows server unknown

I'm getting something similar in a specific circumstance.  If I have multiple domains configured in DNS and the first one (alphabetically) is unpopulated, then it shows Server: UnKnown.  However, if the first one is populated then it reports that zone as the one it's responding from instead of the zone it's actually part of.

It's documented in my post here:  https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,23247.0.html

Installation and Upgrades / DNS answering with wrong FQDN

« on: September 14, 2014, 11:55:20 pm »

So, I have a 3.5 server I've newly installed.  My problem is that the server is responding to DNS queries as a member the first domain alphabetically in the DNS list, instead of the domain it is actually a member of.

In the DNS module the primary domain (let's call it primary.dom) is automatically set up.  When I add a new domain, the server responds to queries (nslookup) as if it was part of that domain instead of its own, even if I remove any mention of the server from the zone.

it looks like this:
DNS
beta.dom           <---- sorts alphabetically
primary.dom       <---- server is here as A record and name server

nslookup www.google.com
Server:   zentyal.beta.dom             <----- NOTE: server purports to be beta.dom instead of primary.dom
Address: x.x.x.x

Non-authoritative answer:
etc etc etc.

If I remove all records from beta.dom (and point a name server record at primary.dom) then it does the same thing but identifies as UnKnown instead of the wrong domain.

Any ideas?
