Integrating LDAP and Samba using openSUSE

I have recently written a document that describes how to configure LDAP + Samba integration in openSUSE. Check it here[6]

For some time i have been looking for a way to create a simple fileserver in Linux, that could easily be configured by anyone. OpenSUSE made it reality, but there was no aggregated graphical documentation about it (at least from what i have found). With this comprehensive and simple howto that i present, you will be able to create a fileserver with minimal effort, using just graphical tools to configure and administrate.

The case presented, wil allow that Linux and Windows computers share the same network folders in a transparent way, using their native file sharing system, which is NFS for Unix/Linux and SMB/CIFS for Windows.

All users will be defined in a central repository, so you can synchronize Samba with NFS, but also keeping the possibility to use that central repository for many other purposes, like having a mail server with those same users, or an FTP server also with them automatically recognized.

LDAP is configured in a secure way using TLS/SSL.

Hope you like it. Please send me any comments that you find important.

openSUSE for IBM Netvista N2200 (8363)

I have prepared an openSUSE image (version 10.3) capable of running under the very special IBM Netvista N2200 thin client. Read all about it here[8].



Mounting a USB hard disk in a fixed mount point using openSUSE 11.0

I installed openSUSE 11.0 (as most wise people did) and noticed, that perhaps the way to mount my external USB hard disk always in the same place, was not so user friendly as i wanted.

The details of how i did it are here.



simECG: The ECG simulator for Linux

Recently i was involved in a team to develop an ECG simulator in Qt that also works in Linux. It was completely developed using OpenSUSE, and we are very proud of the result.

The simECG was developed for acting as an ECG simulator, for both training and assessment purposes. It has the ability to display several pre-defined rhythms for training purposes, such as rhythm and conduction disturbances. Additionally, a number of settings can be altered in order to create different training experiences for different levels of user proficiency. With the release of this version, in Open Source format, the authors put in practical application their ideal that education (and training, in this case) should not be a commercial tool accessible to some but rather a free collaborative tool available for those who seek knowledge.

simECG project webpage is available in simecg.sourceforge.net. Here is the SourceForge project page
