OpenLDAP + Samba Domain Controller On Ubuntu 7.10
Author: rickyjones • Tags: ubuntu, samba, storage • Comments: 41OpenLDAP + Samba Domain Controller On Ubuntu 7.10 This document is a step by step guide for configuring Ubuntu 7.10 as a Samba Domain Controller with an LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). The point is to configure a server that can be comparable, from a central authentication point of view, to a Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller. The end result will be a server with an LDAP directory for storing user, group, and computer accounts. A Windows XP Professional SP2 workstation will be able to join the domain once properly configured.

Encrypted Root LVM
Author: burasa • Tags: ubuntu, storage • Comments: 4Encrypted Root LVM This tutorial deals only with how to add an extra encrypted physical volume to a volume group pool containing other encrypted physical volumes. This is typical scenario if, at first, you have set up your encryption at a physical partition level (/dev/sdaX where X is the a number of your partition), then you setup your LVM on top of the encrypted partition. If at some later time you want to add another partition in your volume group, you will also want to have it encrypted in order to maintain the same level of security.

Install Ubuntu With Software RAID 10
Author: maxbash • Tags: ubuntu, storage • Comments: 29Install Ubuntu With Software RAID 10 The Ubuntu Live CD installer doesn't support software RAID, and the server and alternate CDs only allow you to do RAID levels 0, 1, and 5. Raid 10 is the fastest RAID level that also has good redundancy too. So I was disappointed that Ubuntu didn't have it as a option for my new file server. I didn't want shell out lots of money for a RAID controller, especially since benchmarks show little performance benefit using a Hardware controller configured for RAID 10 in a file server.

Creating A Dual-Boot System On RAID10 (Ubuntu/Windows)
Author: theos • Tags: ubuntu, storage • Comments: 6
Creating A Dual-Boot System On RAID10 (Ubuntu/Windows) I just bought a new computer and I want to run Ubuntu 8.10 and Vista. I'm really afraid to loose some of my data when a harddrive dies, so I decided to go for a RAID10-setup. Most modern motherboards support RAID0,1,5 and 10. After assembling my new computer, I discovered that the motherboard didn't have a true hardware-RAID-controller. Instead it's just software-RAID, sometimes called fakeraid. If I was installing a Linux-only-system, I wouldn't care and just use the Linux software-Raid options. But this time, my system has to be dual-boot.
