Some examples of this are CentOS, which is arguably a fork of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, but has probably a significantly large installed base then RHEL; TigerCRM, a fork of SugarCRM; and Joomla, a very successful fork of the Mambo content management system.

However, I think of it as very fork-ish since it's definitely a LOT more than just a mirror.

I haven't updated in way too long and it just runs. I have an IPSEC VPN tunnel that's up full-time to a PIX and it's rock-solid. I also use PPTP VPN for myself to get in from the outside world. For this particular project we have a backup site with between 100-1000MB bandwidth, depending upon who's looking. Drop a baby PIX on it and look up the specs: throughput is around 60 Mbs but drop an 3DES VPN on the box and it drops to 3 Mbs. We built up a few boxes with more horsepower and are running about 300-400 Mbs. Question is how much do we suffer with an IPSEC VPN since we don't have any hardware acceleration. Not yet deployed so I was wondering if anyone else had any experience. On Jan 5, 2010, at 6:20 PM, Dustin Puryear wrote: > Ah, IPSEC tunnels.

This year's event will be Saturday June 12 through Sunday June 13 (with some additional training/certification activities on Friday June 11). It will be held at the Spartanburg Marriott at Renaissance Park. We already have some all star features. This year the after party will feature a screening from RiffTrax, which is the all the same guys who did Mystery Science Theatre 3000 doing the same thing: ripping on classic movies and clips. If you think you'll attend, I encourage you to book your room IMMEDIATELY, as you'll get a special $93/night rate. That rate will jump to $99/night VERY SOON... and eventually become almost $110/night if you procrastinate until close to the event. To reserve your room at our special rate, please use this link: http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/SPAMC?groupCode=slxslxa&app=resvlink&fromDate=6/10/10&toDate=6/14/10 We're looking forward to being bigger, better, and longer in our second ever event celebrating Linux and open source software in the GNU/South. Hope to see you there!

You should consider pam_ldap as a bare bones "let's make it work but that's it" solution. With LikeWise, Centrify, etc., you get a more powerful management layer. For example, with Centrify (and LikeWise may support this), I can set the same person to have different home directory locations based on the UNIX flavor (e.g., Sun, Mac OSX, Red Hat Linux) they are logging into, what group of servers (e.g., lab, accounting) it is, etc. You can't do that with pam_ldap. You just do authn and authz with pam_ldap. Also, at least with Centrify, you can support AD GPO's on Linux, UNIX, and Macs. --- Puryear IT, LLC - Baton Rouge, LA - http://www.puryear-it.com/ Active Directory Integration : Web & Enterprise Single Sign-On Identity and Access Management : Linux/UNIX technologies Download our free ebook "Best Practices for Linux and UNIX Servers" http://www.puryear-it.com/pubs/linux-unix-best-practices/ -----Original Message----- From: general-bounces at brlug.net [mailto:general-bounces at brlug.net] On Behalf Of Brad Bendily Sent: Monday, January 25, 2010 1:18 PM To: general at brlug.net Subject: [brlug-general] Seen this?
