[00:00]<ljjcd>my brain needs better multithreading >.<
[00:00]<sxzzcxzv>lol
[00:00]<zjzw>pooky: I'm not very familiar with Password Server, but that sounds right.. anyhow doing anything like that will require you to reverse engineer Open Directory to some degree.
[00:00]<zrmznwrud>yah, that was my g3 ibook, hah I don't let anyone touch my macbook. I just send em to my mini
[00:01]<ljjcd>I'm tempted to take a sledge to that xserve. that's serious reverse engineering :)
[00:01]<pzjjmyrg>pooky: no no no, disassembling it piece by piece is serious reverse engineering ;)
[00:01]<zjzw>pooky: A good approach, even though its going to be a bit redundant, might be to keep two separate OUs, on for OD and the other for your app.. and adjust your user management scripts/software to manage both, accordingly.
[00:01]<zrmznwrud>brb, gotta restart... FYI: sidetrack is universal.
[00:02]<ljjcd>rorx: I thought about that, the problem THEN, is when "the other app" tries to bind, it gives the wrong DN, and fails
[00:02]<zjzw>pooky: This way OD and the app you want to deploy won't step on each others toes.
[00:03]<ljjcd>since the DN is UID=123456,CN=users,DN=some,DN=domain,DN=name
[00:04]<ljjcd>I guess I could copy the password key from one entry to the other
[00:04]<ljjcd>that might work
[00:04]<ljjcd>let me try that
[00:04]<ljjcd>the authAuthority
[00:04]<zjzw>pooky: hmm, yeah, complete separation would be needed.
[00:04]<ljjcd>and apple-generateduid
[00:04]<ljjcd>
[00:04]<ljjcd>authAuthority
[00:09]<mnnks>ok so i installed bootcamp, and it tells me i need a firmware update, so i get the firmware and that tells me that my pc doesnt need to be updated
[00:10]<pzjjmyrg>"No keyboard detected. Press enter to continue"
[00:11]<zjzw>gotta love that PC logic.
[00:11]<c-rjm>Is there any really annoying bright flashy app I can launch in OS X?
[00:12]<ljjcd>k-god: use growl :)
[00:13]<ljjcd>k-god: and then use the pop up video notification style
[00:13]<pzjjmyrg>k-god: pop in dvd and have it launch dvd player when it's done
[00:13]<pzjjmyrg>i guarantee you'll notice
[00:13]<ljjcd>make it porn
[00:13]<ljjcd>and you'll not only notice
[00:14]<ljjcd>you'll run to the box in a hurry
[00:14]<pzjjmyrg>haha
[00:14]<zjzw>or have it speak something, I do that sometimes
[00:14]<c-rjm>... but I'll be fr13d.
[00:14]<c-rjm>rorx: headphones. Which m ay or may not be on my ears.
[00:14]<c-rjm>Something to strobe the display would be cool though.
[00:14]<ljjcd>I used to do spoken notifications, but I wasn't always available to hear it
[00:14]<ljjcd>I have a script that'll just pop up an error
[00:15]<ljjcd>write a shell/l applescript that just pops up a nx
[00:15]<pzjjmyrg>k-god: have it run an applescript that tells iTunes to start its virtualization
[00:15]<ljjcd>err, an error script
[00:15]<ljjcd>an error box, ffs, my brain is stew
[00:15]<ljjcd>I should go take a nap
[00:15]<mrsol>pooky: was it just an annotation error above or shouldnt it be DC=some,DC=domain,DC=name ?
[00:16]<ljjcd>dasOp: when you put in the DN for a user, you have to put in the full "path"
[00:16]<ljjcd>but there might have been a typo, let me scroll forever up and see
[00:16]<mrsol>[16:02]<pooky> since the DN is UID=123456,CN=users,DN=some,DN=domain,DN=name
[00:18]<zjzw>or have it speak something, I do that sometimes
[00:18]<zjzw>oops, sorry
[00:19]<ljjcd>dasOp: I was using that as how I might reference a users dn directly, so, afaik, how I stated that is correct
[00:19]<ljjcd>it might be an issue of semantics though, so :/
[00:19]<mrsol>I havent seen DN being used to specify the components of the domain itself
[00:20]<c-rjm>OK, this is pretty annoying: set X11 to use system sound. Set system sound to flash.
[00:20]<c-rjm>while :; do echo -e "\a"; sleep 2; done
[00:20]<ljjcd>in phpldapadmin, for authentication, it asks for the users DN
[00:20]<ljjcd>and you type in the full DN
[00:20]<mrsol>in my world, DN is the whole shebang which is why I asked. might be something new I didnt know
[00:20]<ljjcd>which is more than just the domain
[00:21]<zjzw>dasOp: yeah, that's a typo .. should be DC=
[00:21]<ljjcd>I'm in a perpetual learn as I go state atm with this, which I know isn't the best
[00:21]<ljjcd>ohoh, I see, I didn't notice the DN vs DC
[00:21]<ljjcd>yeah, rorx is right
[00:21]<mrsol>yeah, a DN is something like CN=myuser,OU=Incompetents,OU=Depts,DC=bla,DC=com
[00:22]<ygvnzj>hi people. may i ask your opinion about apple and piracy? are they strict on controls or let it go, just like windows?
[00:22]<mrsol>what prompted that question?
[00:22]<mrsol>as to the answer, ask the guy on mactka that got sued :P
[00:22]<ygvnzj>curiosity
[00:22]<ljjcd>intero: they've got some pretty vicious lawyers.
[00:23]<ljjcd>intero: going so far as to threaten suing people for making os x like themes.
[00:23]<mrsol>that's not really related though
[00:23]<sxzzcxzv>pooky: they have regestered as a trade mark almost every icon in os x
[00:23]<ygvnzj>pooky: oh, i see.
[00:23]<sxzzcxzv>the trash, the i-apps, the hd, everything
[00:24]<mrsol>if they dont protect their ui at all times, they'll lose the important case
[00:24]<ygvnzj>how about using a cracked tiger-x86?
[00:24]<ljjcd>sharkhat: IP is killing everything. DRM is the weapon of choice.
[00:24]<sxzzcxzv>intero: uhh that probably isnt legal
[00:24]<ajgnscjj>IPv4 is killing everything
[00:24]<ljjcd>intero: illegal, but I haven't heard of any cases of going after users of pirated software
[00:24]<ajgnscjj>IPv6 is the best legal drug out there
[00:24]<ajgnscjj>.. never mind
[00:25]<sxzzcxzv>well after microsoft took the ideas of windows, a mouse pointer, and icons for folders...
[00:25]<ljjcd>joneskoo: that was too easy.
[00:25]<ygvnzj>yes, i know it's illegal :) but also using windows without buying is, and everyone is (at least here in .it). hence my question
[00:25]<ljjcd>sharkhat: I bet the big blue is trademarked
[00:25]<ygvnzj>thanks for the hints
[00:25]<sxzzcxzv>oh yea
[00:25]<sxzzcxzv>what is .it?
[00:26]<ljjcd>big blue e even
[00:26]<ljjcd>italy
[00:26]<sxzzcxzv>what country is that
[00:26]<sxzzcxzv>ah
[00:26]<zjzw>Italia!
[00:26]<ljjcd>it's the land where geeks come from
[00:26]<ljjcd>.IT
[00:26]<sxzzcxzv>send me some marble
[00:26]<sxzzcxzv>lol
[00:26]<ljjcd>I.hate.IT
[00:27]<ljjcd>IT jokes are old, I apologize for the cruft.
[00:27]<v2j>sharkhat: you don't know Italy?
[00:27]<sxzzcxzv>tbo: lol what?
