![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I’d never actually used SAMBA as a domain controller before, but I thought this would be a fun experiment. I went with the Debian, and did an in place upgrade to 11, then 12. The VPS had an option for either CentOS (no) or Debian 10. The benefit of the VPS is that it has a public address, so no NAT is required. In my mind, I though the easiest way to get files in & out of the Alpha was not to use something like IIS/FTP where it would probably lead to end-less issues with text/binary/active/passive modes, but rather I should rent a VPS, install the OS default SAMBA and just map drives. While many problems were overcome, and many more remain, I have to say the most annoying thing was joining a domain hosted by a SAMBA server. I hosted a Porting Party last where where I setup my Dec Alpha as a terminal server allowing people from all over the world to connect in and cross compile software for the 64bit version of Windows for the Dec Alpha. Or the Unbridled rage of living on the trailing edge. ![]()
