@stacksofplates It has been a while since I've looked into Borg. I will check it out again.
Restic is another good backup program.

LDAP User Sync is timing out. I will need to fix that and automate the process via a script I think. Probably need to give php more memory or make the scope smaller.

RE: Spec'ing a new computer from Dell or?posted in IT Discussion
@scottalanmiller said in Spec'ing a new computer from Dell or?:
I had a HP DC5850 that replaced my dx5150 which I had used for years. The DC5850 made it nine years, I think, as my main desktop. That had the AMD Phenom-II processor, 6GB of RAM, but the key was that it had an early SSD and was so fast that the old CPU didn't matter. Now 6GB of RAM would kill me, but 8GB will essentially work.
AMD Phenom was my favorite.

@jt1001001 so a question for everyone who is a proponent of lan-less (office-less) do you compensate employees for using their home as work space?
Nope, part of that compensation if you need a push back is - you aren't spending gas money driving to work anymore - and if you're not on video calls, you don't need a professional wardrobe... not a huge savings, but likely noticeable in most households.
My counter to that would be, if you no longer have an office space you're saving a ton on rent/mortgage and are putting that burden on the employee to have a "work space at home for business benefit".
Thus I should be compensated.
At least that's the argument to be had.
And I don't disagree with this at all - and neither does the government - if you have a dedicated space to home office - you can write that off on your taxes...
So sure, I see both sides.The bigger issue I really see is - most homes don't have a good setup for home officing, and if they do, it's likely only for one person, not two or more.
think of a family of 4 with the two adults working from home. Assume the house is three bedroom and has a den (which 90% don't). One adult in the den, one likely in the living room/kitchen, and the kids in their bedrooms.
toss a third kid in there, now what?
I have a very very similar situation setup here at home. My wife and I are working back to back in the basement (aka man cave) of our home (three bedroom split level). Both the girls are in their bedroom for virtual school. Thank goodness we have a 100mbps connection.
For the most part all has been going OK except for when we both need to be on the phone. If there was a third kid, we would have issues.
One of many reasons why I wanted a home that has 4+ plus bedrooms.

RE: Are Minimal installs really better?posted in IT Discussion

Fedora Server adds this over Minimal Install (in Fedora 30)
I looked at:
dnf group list
and
dnf group info "<groupname>"Difference between Minimal Install and Fedora Server Edition:
It's not the whole truth though because some of these packages are installed in Minimal Install but they are listed as optional. I don't know when packages that are marked optional actually are installed or not. One example is the packages in the Standard group.

youtube-dl I hope!
No. I heard about youtube-dl's fate on the Linux Action News podcast though.
Well the way the music industry got it taken down is a bit insane, so I fully expect it to be back soon. If it's not already up on gitlab or any other number of platforms.
Can always install youtube-dl using pip which is how I access it.

RE: Windows and NFSposted in Water Closet

I thought about using samba but have read that it’s not good to use nfs and samba on the same shared folders. I prefer to keep nfs because of the efficiency on my Linux clients.
Create a new shared folder where both NFS and Samba is sharing to test.
