Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    1. LDAP and / or Kerberos?
    2. That's what Enterprise Distros are for (Redhat, SLES, Ubuntu)
    3. "Linux-ready sysadmins" is a hen-and-egg problem. If people keep maintaining a rotting Windows ecosystem, thus do not establish a market for linux sysadmins, less people will study in that direction.

    Nevertheless, from my personal experience, corporate IT in non-software enterprises is full of clueless sys"admins" who just go by flowcharts and if that doesn't help escalate to Microsoft support, and if they can't help they close tickets as "use as-is".

    Hey, don't attack me for it. I'm aware that the admin problem is a hen-and-egg problem but it doesn't change the fact that the shit show works enough to justify not switching for basically everyone.

    Problem with enterprise Linux is that they feel experimental to the people in charge.

    (About the AD, yeah, I didn't know about it to that degree, all the end user systems I manage are winass, even though I manage a number of Linux Servers for specific purposes)

    Yeah many in house personal IT from businesses is... Semi capable, they are enough for first and partially second level support, I know some petty good ones but I'm working as a service provider for second and third level support and coordination of specified support (Microsoft, Telecommunications providers, ISP, security management etc.) and I made very similar experiences. But most they do all they is first level support anyway, at last in small and medium sized IT environments.
