Installation and Upgrades / No "only the first time" frequency option for full backups
« on: November 30, 2010, 02:11:27 pm »
I would like run to my backups to a remote NAS over an internet connection. Total backup is around 1.4TB, so I want to disable full backups and only do incremental backups.
The Zentyal documentation reads:
However, when I look at my backup settings, there is no option to run a full backup "only the first time". Is this because I have already run several backups? How do I enable this option?

Full Backup Frequency
This parameter is used to determine the frequency for the complete backups to be performed. The values are: Only the first time, Daily, Weekly, Twice a month and Monthly.

Installation and Upgrades / Opening Office files (Excel, Word, Powerpoint) files very slow
« on: November 04, 2010, 07:07:10 pm »
I have a Ubuntu box with Zentyal running as PDC for a number of Windows clients. Opening and transferring files from the server's shares is very fast, except for Excel and Word files. It takes about 20-30 seconds to open them with Word/Excel/Powerpoint. Copying one of these files from one share to another, or to a local client is very fast.
When I do a Google search, I find several people experiencing this problem. Are there any people here that are experiencing this? Any solutions?
EDIT: Weird... opening a .doc file in Wordpad works fine. Could this problem have something to do with file locking?
EDIT2: When I tick the 'Guest access' box for a share in Zentyal, I can open Office files very quickly, but they open as read-only, so I cannot save them.

Installation and Upgrades / "Companyname.com" as internal domain name = DNS problems?
« on: November 02, 2010, 12:20:07 pm »
I'm currently testing a Zentyal box configured as PDC, DNS and DHCP. Everything seems to be working fine, except that clients unable to reach our website on www.companyname.com. The reason must be that I chose the Zentyal domain equal to our registered domain name (companyname.com).
Obviously this is something I need to fix. Now I can edit the /etc/hosts file on the Zentyal server, but this doesn't sound like a proper solution.
Should I rename the internal domain name to 'companyname' (remove the .com part)? Or is there something in the DNS configuration of the Zentyal box I should change?

Installation and Upgrades / [SOLVED] How to change the default location of user home directory
« on: October 26, 2010, 03:19:27 pm »
I've noticed that Zentyal - by default - creates a directory called /home/[username] when a new user account is created in the Zentyal dashboard. Is it possible to change the location where Zentyal creates the home directory?
(The reason is that I would like all home directories to be mounted shares from my QNAP NAS server. I can manually mount all user home directories for existing users, but that means altering fstab every time I create a new user.)
