What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Unscheduled training occurring in my computer lab with 30+ computers. Requires a plugin to work (Couldn't have known no one told me anything). Can't install the plugin while they are doing the training. Can't do the training until the plugin in installed. No preparation. Extremely frustrated and I feel bad for the people in the training because they're going to be here longer and it's already the entire day.
Not a great start to the week.

Broke my unattend.xml file now my sysprep doesn't work. Guess what.......I forgot to backup the working file DOH!!
Assuming you have an old image - you should be able to push the image, boot from a live cd and extract the file.
NOPE! lol that the issue I've been playing killed all old images and replaced with the "new" and that's the one that doesn't work correctly i.e. When you click the start button nothing happens!

that's actually a known problem.
Reboot and try again - I've read you have to reboot up to two times after doing a sysprep depending on what options you picked in Sysprep.

OK will try that too.
*Edit - But I did have it working after the initial sysprep

and if it's not working now, and was then - yeah you're probably right, you're hosed

(i.e. Backups!)Upvote for honesty. I'll actually join you and confess the same.
Granted I don't have much that's worth backing up, but none of it is.

On SpiceWorks. What?? Even if he did chattr +i on everything, he would still be able to access it from root just not change it.
I done a migration for windows share to a linux one
I used "freenas" at the beginning I first made test and everything seemed fine, it was easy to configure and I hadn´t problems with permissions.
I was the only guy who knows linux, those days and I wasn´t good enough in linux I was a begginer, so my manager gave me green light to implemented in the real server
Migration to freenas was quite easy and quick, It was working but I made a change in user permissions and every single carpet and archive become blocked, I couldn´t access to any carpet even if I was the root user!
Because the CEO was very angry and he demanded a solution I ended installing server 2008 r2 and configured permissions.
My recomendation is before anthing you do, do a backup and if you are not an expert in linux, don´t make changes unless you know what are you doing exactly and last one, test a lot! try everything in a lab
good luck! -
@johnhooks Yeah I'm confused...
It sounds like he revoked all permissions from his Linux File Server though because he wasn't certain of what he was doing.

Even if you do a
chmod 000you can still access files through root. Ya I have no idea what he did. -

Yeah, he just started breaking things without knowing what was going on. Same thing would happen on Windows. Basically, clueless people should not be allowed to IT
-
Unless it's like when you do
chmod 644on/usr/bin/chmodand then can't ever change permissions on anything. Maybe he didchmod 000on / so nothing would execute period.How you get to that point, I don't know. I think these are the same kind of people that run fork bombs because they saw a funny picture telling them it would be hilarious.

Breaking things is fine provided it's in a test environment as part of the learning experience ^_^

If you do puke, do it like a boss all over the new boss to show who really is the boss...
Am'I'right?
