Blogger Templates

I have changed the template only slightly. It seems that this default denim template also has a "wide" option. The colours and widgets remain the same. The only difference is that source code can now be read more easily as the layout will stretch with the browser.

Python + inotify = Pyinotify [ how to watch folders for file activity ]

Sometimes it just might be handy to be able to watch a folder on a hard disk for changes. For example: A client app might drop small files on a shared folder. A server app might be watching the folder for just such an event. Once the file is created, the server will kick into action and perform whatever tasks are required. This all comes from my CD burning application. I am currently thinking that the client apps will drop small xml files containing information about what to burn onto a folder the webserver has access to and the cdburner service will be watching... The linux kernel provides inotify. This from wikipedia : notify is a Linux kernel subsystem that provides file system event notification. It was written by John McCutchan with help from Robert Love and later Amy Griffis to replace dnotify . It was included in the mainline kernel from release 2.6.13 (2005-06-18), and could be compiled into 2.6.12 and possibly earlier releases by use of a patch . Its function is essen...

Extending the AD Schema on Samba4 - Part 1

Image
My last post on Samba4 showed how easy it is to install and configure an AD Service on Linux.  If you've not read it then please have a look. ( http://david-latham.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/samba4-ga-release-virtualbox-lab.html ) This post show's how to extend the Samba4 Active Directory Schema.  Specifically for YubiKey integration. YubiKey's can be purchased for a relativlely low price from Yubico.  Please visit their website (www.yubico.com) for more information. LDAP Integration is very well covered by Michal Ludvig on his website and github.  ( http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/yubikey-ldap/ ) In fact we are planning to leverage his implementation at our work and are considering donating towards what's obviously a very good cause. Now seeing as though LDAP and AD are so similar and exhibit many of the same APIs, I began to wonder how this might fit in with Samba4.  Eventually we might end up using Samba4 for our domain and so I needed to figure out if ...

Extending the AD Schema on Samba4 - Part 2

Importing LDIF files into Samba4 and Active Directory This is part 2 of the Extending AD Schema on Samba4 series.  The examples below are tested using the Samba4 LAB I created.  If you want more information on how that works then please read  http://david-latham.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/samba4-ga-release-virtualbox-lab.html For part one, please read http://david-latham.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/extending-ad-schema-on-samba4.html Unfortunately the format of an ldif file for creating new attributes and classes in the Schema Configuration are differ between Samba4 and Microsoft. The tools are slightly different too.  So this article will attempt to make it all clear. Find all the latest versions of code on this post at  https://github.com/linuxplayground/yubikey-ldap/tree/master/microsoft-schema Samba4 - ldbadd & ldbmodify As far as I can tell the only way to create a new class with a custom attribute in Samba4 (on the Linux command line) is first add ...
