RHEL5 x86_64

Josh & I spent some time this week upgrading our workstations to RHEL5 x86_64, other than a few oddities I believe we’re both happy about it. Exciting news - yum allows us to use public repos[1] with ease , this has really improved my x86_64 experience.

The rest of my week included [but was not limited to] the following:

  • Updating all of our Solaris & Linux krb5.conf files so that they no longer rely on dns for realm / kdc lookups
  • Auditing / updating our php.ini configuration files
  • Messing with samba shares
  • Setting up vncservers
  • Messing with the abyss (account exceptions, secondary logins, etc)
  • cron scripting
