Installation and Upgrades / Roaming profiles and user shares

« on: July 03, 2013, 04:46:01 pm »

I would like to know if anyone has turned off the roaming profiles and if they had any problems in doing so. My boss had turned it on thinking he needed to to access the user shares (H drives). Is that true or can users still access those shares after roaming profiles has been turned off? I'm a little nervous that if i just turn the roaming profiles off there may be data loss on the users end. Is that a valid concern? If it is, is there a way to be sure it doesn't happen?

Installation and Upgrades / Zentyal IPsec in a road warrior configuration... Possible?

« on: May 09, 2012, 06:08:18 pm »

To begin, my company has a network with all kinds of machines connected to it. Win7, xp, osx, ios, android, are all needed to play relatively nice together as well as get along with any networking and vpn protocols being used. That brings me to my issue. I have three macs that need to connect to our network through a vpn. I've configured an OpenVPN vpn and it works great with my windows machines but the macs just dog when trying to connect to network drives and samba shares. This is a known issue with osx but I want to test connecting them through an IPsec connection (mainly because my boss wants me to). These machines are on the road quite extensively so I was wondering if there was a way to configure the zentyal IPsec vpn to allow for this road warrior configuration? Forgive me if this seems like a ridiculous question. VPN and networking are not my specialty (but that seems to be changing).

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Installation and Upgrades / Settings will not save in ebackup module.

« on: March 30, 2012, 05:02:59 pm »

On the Configuration and Status tab, I adjusted my configuration to match my backup setup and went to save the changes. I clicked the Change Button then the Save Changes button. The screen went to the progress screen and the progress went to 100%. Normally when the progress bar reaches 100%, it takes a second then the bar goes away and a link appears to take you back to the dashboard. When trying to save the ebackup changes, the progress bar never goes away. I click the back button in my browser and change other settings then try to save them. When I do this, the progress bar will appear but then it errors out telling me that "Some modules reported error when saving changes. More information on the logs in /var/log/zentyal/ The following modules failed while saving their changes, their state is unknown: ebackup". The first time this happened, I tried to keep re-saving the settings. I kept screwing with it for a while until I decided to restart the server and see if that would help. Upon doing that, the server would not finish booting. The boot screen was different from the normal boot screen I was accustomed to seeing when Zentyal would boot. It was very strange. I ended up scrapping the whole server and reinstalling Ubuntu and Zentyal. After the second installation, I set Zentyal up as similar as I could to the first instance and attempted to configure the ebackup module again. Sadly I seem to have the same issues as before. I have not restarted the server on this second instance yet. Any ideas? If need be I can post the logs If that may shed some light into the subject. Zentyal core version 2.2.6

Installation and Upgrades / SOLVED Screen flash after install on kvm /unable to connect through https

« on: February 24, 2012, 06:11:53 pm »

I have just installed Zentyal on a newly created virtual machine. There seemed to be no problems during the install. When the server started up, the screen was flashing and the firefox window slowly works it's way to the bottom. I've seen that other people have had this issue but would like a better fix then what they have suggested. I also had this issue when using the KVM image provided by Zentyal on their website. I was able to work around it by changing the video driver from cirrus to vga in virt manager. I have tried this with my own installation but the server hangs at the beginning of startup telling me; Unknown command 'terminal' Out of range pointer 0x8022000. There also seems to be a problem with logging into the admin page. I try to go to the admin web page but it tells me that it is unable to connect. I can ssh into the machine and have followed suggestions from another thread in regards to doing an apt-get update and then restarting the apache server. This however does not seem to help the issue if there is one.

Edit to add some words that may help others: blinking openbox https
