ssh scripts
by Robert Borowicz 02 Nov '04

I want to work with our DBA's to put our Oracle instances in Hot Standby to grab snapshots. Anybody got a script they use that utilizes SSH to run the snap command on a filer? Thanks -Rob

User administration (was ssh scripts)
by Michael Christian 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Next question. I want to automate user administration. The whole 'useradmin useradd' thing with its interactive interface and live password addition (who the heck only lets root set a user's pasword?) is probably not going to work with our 500+ filers. 500xNumberOfAdmins. Yeah, right. The docs point to fairly standard /etc/[passwd,shadow,group] files, but having added a user, I still don't see them on my box. Has anyone automated user management? -MikeC _____ From: Michael Christian Sent: Friday, October 29, 2004 9:08 PM To: 'Potakamuri, Sreenivasa'; Thorsten.Lemke(a)computacenter.com; bparent(a)calvin.ucsd.edu Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: ssh scripts Nice, that did it.

From : Mr Kingsley Tarawally. Address : Life Evangelical Mission Rue 11 Plateau, 18 bp 746 Abidjan 18 Abidjan, Cote d' Ivoire. Email kingsleywal(a)jumpy.it Hello Dear, It is my profound pleasure to write you regardless of the fact that we do not know in person, but your positive response towards my message shall be of great benefit to both of us, for the near future. I am Kingsley Tarawally, son of Chief K.S Tarawally, a Native of Mende district in the Eastern province of Sierra-Leone, who was the General Manager of Sierra-Leone Mining Co-operation (S.L.M.C) Freetown. During the war in my country, and following the indiscriminate looting of public and government properties by the rebel forces, the Sierra-Leone Mining Co-operation was one of the targets looted and destroyed. On this process, my father including some other top Government functionaries were attacked and killed by the rebels in November 2000 because of his relationship with the civilian government of Tejan Kabbah. This was a great tragedy as many top government Officials were victim of this attack. Being the only son of my father, I was left alone after my fathers death hence I lost my mother some years ago. My fathers relatives quickly decended on our properties immediately they came to know about my fathers death owing to the fact that I am single and have no good knowledge of all his properties. Unknown to them, my father told me some months ago before his death that he was planning for a business trip to Abidjan Cote where he secured some money for the establishment of a Private Mining Co-Operation. He told me that this money is the total of $10.5m He added that this money is contained inside a consignment and is secured in the Vault department of a Company in Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire. After my fathers death, while I was going through his file, I discovered a Deposit Document containing the information about this deposit and I quickly contacted the Company in Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire.The company have confirmed the deposit of this consignment by my father and also they show concern over his delay in clearing this consignment. I have just notified the Company of my fathers death since November 2000 and they have told me that this consignment can only be released to my fathers associate overseas hence my father secured this consignment to be released to him or his oversea associate. I am presently in Abidjan myself to monitor this matter and to make necessary contact for the release of this consignment. I therefore want your co-operation in this matter so that we can work together to retrieve this consignment from this company and then forward this money directly to your foreign bank account for joint investment. Contact me as soon as you receive this message so that I can give you more details and also instructions on how to contact the Company for the release of this consignment on your behalf as my fathers overseas associate.Please respond to me through the above email address. God bless you. Mr Kingsley Tarawally. Email kingsleywal(a)jumpy.it

Re: User administration (was ssh scripts)

You can change the password of a user created with the useradmin command using the passwd command on the filer. If there is more than just the root user defined, passwd will prompt you for the user name that you want to change the passwd on. ----------------------------------------- Glenn Duzy Senior Consultant GlassHouse Technologies 860.869.4177 gduzy(a)glasshouse.com -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com <owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com> CC: toasters(a)mathworks.com <toasters(a)mathworks.com> Sent: Tue Nov 02 04:28:47 2004 Subject: Re: User administration (was ssh scripts) you have to know that useradmin useradd userdel and so have nothing to do with /etc/passwd userad,in add been historically added to support telnet administration for different <admin user> thus being able to know wo do what (administrativelly speaking) next, this useradmin function was extended to support the user creation able to connect bu CIFS on the netapp (it creates local account) (in the past, you have to edit /etc/passwd and explicit a mapping with /etc/usermap.cfg...) in either case, this command doesn't modify the /etc/passwd file it is true that this command is not ... um, very coherent i think it had been integrated in the netapp to allow function that were in need... i had the same question from a customer : is it possible to change the passwd for a user created with useradmin the answer is no : you have to delete and recreate the user bye Michael Christian wrote: Next question.

NEBS compliant NAS?
by Edward Hibbert 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

This probably isn't directly NetApp related - though I'd love it if it were. Does anyone know of a rack-mountable NAS which is NEBS compliant and no more than 19" wide and 20" deep? Regards, Edward.

Re: Disconnect users from a filer by ntname

I've done a "cifs terminate [userID]" From the filer command prompt. I'm pretty sure you need to be running 6.4 or higher for this to work.

RE: Virus scanning for filers
by Hill, Aaron 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

I think this depends largely on the security strategy of your organisation. For a business environment, I would suggest that you have as much security as the budget will allow whilst still maintianing relative ease for the bulk of users to keep being productive and making money for the organisation. A a rule, security is best achieved through layers. For example, add another layer by introducing scanning on your filers. A "paranoid" approach would be to have a virus product from one manufacturer running on each resource type. i.e. Product A - Servers, Product B - Desktops, Product C -Filers. Of course budgeting realities may prevent this from being realised. As for "gotchas"? In general, for Trend I would say no. But you do want to investigate the best practices guide on the NOW site regarding Trend and Filers. Particularly looking at the network connectivity design (GbE recommended) and mandatory scanning options ("off"). From a recent nasty experience we had, if you have multi-interface filers, request hotfix 1041 (Trend) be put in with the installation, just to be extra safe. Other than that, Trend has been a solid solution. --Aaron _____ From: SKIP HOFMANN [mailto:SKIP.HOFMANN@ttisg.com] Sent: Tuesday, 2 November 2004 6:35 AM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Virus scanning for filers Hello all We are running AV on all our servers, and workstations.
