robehend1 | is it possible to use the Edubuntu menu-editor to assign different profiles to likewise-open AD groups? e.g. students profile to the DOMAIN\Students, staff to DOMAIN\Staff, etc | 14:38 |
highvoltage | robehend1: I don't know for sure, but since it works pretty much like normal groups, it should really be fine. if it isn't, then it should probably get a bug for that | 14:53 |
robehend1 | highvoltage: only issue I'm having is getting them to show up in the gui for profile assignment. only likewise-related one i see is LTSPHOST\Likewise Users | 14:54 |
highvoltage | ah right, because you only see your own groups right? | 14:56 |
robehend1 | correct | 14:56 |
robehend1 | have the same issue with Sabayon, now that i think about it. | 14:56 |
highvoltage | mgariepy: any ideas? perhaps menueditor could get a custom field for that? sounds like a very common use case :) | 14:57 |
robehend1 | highvoltage: would it make sense to just add the group to the /etc/group file? it looks like that is where the editor is reading from. I'm not sure of the syntax though, since its an AD group, not local | 15:10 |
highvoltage | robehend1: I'm not sure what happens if you have groups with backslashes in there, it might work with a bit of trial and error, perhaps you might need to escape a backslash in there, I have no idea but it sounds worth trying | 15:12 |
robehend1 | highvoltage: likewise *does* let you change the domain seperate from a backslash to say, a hyphen. guess i've got an afternoon project | 15:13 |
highvoltage | robehend1: I just played around with it, addgroup doesn't allow you to use backslashes, but it does work if you manually put it in /etc/group | 15:15 |
robehend1 | how did you add it. DOMAIN\\Group ? | 15:15 |
highvoltage | DOMAIN\group | 15:15 |
robehend1 | hmm, alright. now to give it a shot. any services I have to restart after fiddling with that file/ | 15:16 |
highvoltage | that's how I added it in /etc/group, then I added the user to the group by doing a adduser testuser TEST\\group | 15:16 |
highvoltage | nope | 15:16 |
robehend1 | you just give it a random number? So it'd be like...DOMAIN\Group:x:8283 or something? | 15:17 |
highvoltage | I just incremented the last used group ID, but you can choose a higher number too | 15:17 |
robehend1 | hmm. Now to see if its actually using the AD group, or if we just made a group called DOMAIN\Group | 15:18 |
highvoltage | well, it won't actually be the AD group, I thought you just wanted it to add users to the group in menueditor? | 15:19 |
mgariepy | robehend1, you probably can use desktop-profile with likewise groups | 15:25 |
robehend1 | I'm wanting to be able to assign profiles in menu editor to members of the AD group | 15:25 |
robehend1 | i could be explaining it wrong, as well | 15:25 |
mgariepy | i guess the simplest way would be to edit the file manually | 15:25 |
robehend1 | the /etc/group file? | 15:25 |
mgariepy | nop, the /etc/desktop-profiles/whatever.listing file | 15:26 |
mgariepy | can you try to asign the profile to a random group, then edit the file it createsd | 15:26 |
robehend1 | hmm, let me give it a shot | 15:27 |
mgariepy | not sure how it will react with "\" in group name tho | 15:27 |
robehend1 | well, that can be changed in likewise to be a - or something | 15:28 |
mgariepy | with ldap it works correctly | 15:28 |
robehend1 | ack, student calls. i'll have to come back to this. thanks though! | 15:29 |
stgraber | highvoltage: edubuntu ? | 19:08 |
stgraber | as in meeting (unless I got mixed up with timezones again) | 19:08 |
stgraber | mgariepy: ^ | 19:08 |
mhall119 | I think it's early for a meeting | 19:10 |
highvoltage | stgraber: hi! | 19:10 |
stgraber | ok, so got mixed up with the timezones again :) | 19:10 |
highvoltage | mgariepy I think is in a meeting | 19:10 |
stgraber | so that's in 50 minutes ? | 19:10 |
stgraber | just wondering because I saw that the QA meeting is about to begin and it's usually conflicting with ours + my cell meeting reminder rang 30min ago :) | 19:11 |
stgraber | oh, and it's 19:11 UTC so I think I'm right ;) | 19:12 |
stgraber | highvoltage: can you confirm ? :) | 19:12 |
highvoltage | this wednesday kind of snuck up on me | 19:12 |
highvoltage | yep, it's the right time | 19:12 |
stgraber | yeah ! | 19:12 |
stgraber | (not that I have anything to say at the meeting anyway) | 19:12 |
highvoltage | I'm just digging up my tomboy notes so that I can remember what I did the last week :) | 19:13 |
stgraber | I guess we should switch to -meeting, even if it's to say that we don't have anything to say :) | 19:13 |
highvoltage | well, we have some seed changes, kstars has been dropped (in favour of kstars) and there's a bunch of other seed changes too but I don't have them open right now | 19:14 |
highvoltage | I've been talking to LibreCAD upstream a bit off-list | 19:15 |
highvoltage | they are eagre to have it in Edubuntu, they're just finalising logos, etc. then I'll review it for universe | 19:16 |
stgraber | => -meeting ? | 19:16 |
highvoltage | d'oh | 19:16 |
maco | i think the desktop is in kdepim-runtime because the other akonadi packages are either the lib or the server, but the client and server probably dont have to be on the same system | 20:25 |
maco | then again, its used to start/stop the server, so id be inclined to put it into akonadi-server | 20:26 |
highvoltage | ah right | 20:26 |
highvoltage | we could just hide those menus, but that feels more like covering up the problem than fixing it | 20:27 |
highvoltage | but as you said that's kind of hard to avoid since that's how kde upstream works | 20:27 |
maco | i think it should be possible to make akonaditray a separate package and have the actual kdepim applications depend on it instead of the whole runtime, maybe? | 20:28 |
maco | er i mean instead of including it in the whole runtime | 20:28 |
maco | like, to split up that package a bit | 20:29 |
highvoltage | that would be nice | 20:29 |
maco | highvoltage: do you end up with akonadi-server installed too? | 20:34 |
maco | nvm. answer's yes | 20:35 |
maco | kdepim-runtime depends on it | 20:35 |
maco | yeah...python-kde4 just needs to be broken up so packages can depend on some subset of the kde platform | 20:35 |
salvy | Hi | 22:58 |
