I have < 10 machines, and it should be < 10 machines for the forseeable future,

I'll look into NIS and some of the other tools people have mentioned.

I need to set-up some sort of password server for a small network so that i

It looks like LDAP is the best way to do that.

I have my nfs shares set-up to automount to

What i'd like to do is have it use /home/ in the event it can't see

that's horrible UI design. Menu bar goes away without a hint of how to get it
back ?
Brian
I have two jessie systems.
The one i'm typing this email on has a claws-mail with a menu bar, and the
other does not.
Both are running xfce.
This seems like either a window manager thing.
Every other app i've tested has a menu bar.
ugh
Any ideas ?

Hi,
I've got two systems running jessie.
Somehow iceweasel on one system has got the cisco OpenH264 decoder installed,
but the other one doesn't.
I can't seem to track down how I've managed to install it.
Anybody know how I can get it enabled for iceweasel in Jessie ?
Thank you,

Audacious works because it allows me to select the audio device.
However playing audio in iceweasel does not work.
Why not ?
Who the heck knows.

Hi,
This is a weird one.
Tried to use ssh and saw a "bad permissions" error on my .ssh/config file.
I do ls -l and i see uids/gids of 2^32-1 or a similar very large integer.
