[13:59:13 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> maybe just push back a gently.

[13:59:33 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> exactly! :0

[14:00:12 CDT(-0500)] <battags> so my concern is at the point at which a pull request was generated they already have code

[14:00:16 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> i suppose committers could agree that there should always be a jira. how it gets there is open

[14:00:31 CDT(-0500)] <battags> i.e. where was the discussion on cas-user/ dev

[14:00:50 CDT(-0500)] <battags> again for bug fixes not a huge deal

[14:00:52 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> discussion is good. discussion around working code… even better

[14:01:11 CDT(-0500)] <apetro> maybe some of the discussion starts happening on the pull requests?

[14:01:42 CDT(-0500)] <battags> I don't want people to waste their time writing code that might not be the right direction

[14:01:47 CDT(-0500)] <battags> i.e. if their idea/concern is great

[14:01:54 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> hmm….are they easily tracked.

[14:01:58 CDT(-0500)] <battags> but the code they spent hours on isn't the direction we would have taken the feature

[14:02:00 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> i get your point.

[14:02:11 CDT(-0500)] <battags> I'm all for other people writing code

[14:02:16 CDT(-0500)] <battags> just with input from the dev team (wink)

[14:02:19 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> early discussion, intent is always a good thing

[14:02:54 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> but as you said.. small bug fix…not a bit deal.

[14:03:08 CDT(-0500)] <battags> right

[14:03:10 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> yikes. gotta go.

[14:03:11 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> later.

[14:03:17 CDT(-0500)] <battags> later. have a good weekend

[14:03:21 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> u2

[14:03:57 CDT(-0500)] <apetro> My time is up. I thank you for yours.

[14:19:31 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> do you guys recommend any specific load balancing mechanism for HA ?

[14:27:07 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> foxnesn: for moodle, after the user first logs in, do you know if it's possible to automatically create the user based on their AD attributes?

[14:30:08 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> ooo

[14:30:42 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> i dont know. we run a script in oracle during registration that populates the ldap

[14:30:59 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> and since moodle is setup for ldap the students could just log in

[14:32:01 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> moodle stores users in the user table so im not sure how that would work

[14:41:48 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> i just don't want new users having to create their account

[14:41:53 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> it would be nice to automate it

[14:45:25 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> where's atilling when you need him (big grin)

[14:47:45 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> haha

[14:48:08 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> when students register dont you have some script that puts them into your AD?

[14:49:31 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> yes, but it wouldn't add them to moodle

[14:54:29 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> hrm, id have to ask our portal admin about that

[14:54:41 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> heh

[14:54:58 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> maybe you dont have to add them to moddle

[14:55:00 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> moodle

[14:55:02 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> though....

[14:55:26 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> if the user is in the AD and you set moodle to auth against the AD maybe it retrieves that data from there

[14:55:39 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> good thought

[14:55:42 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> i'll try it

[14:55:47 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> let me know!

[14:55:52 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> for sure (big grin)

[15:09:20 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> hmmmm....after enabling cas, i can't login as the local moodle admin

[15:09:31 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> therefore, i have no admin access at the moment

[15:20:47 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> you should have an admin account that manually auths

[15:23:27 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> i do, but how do you login as the moodle admin account if everything goes through cas?

[15:26:20 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> add your moodle admin to the AD

[15:26:45 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> heh good idea

[15:27:05 CDT(-0500)] <foxnesn> so long as the password is good with AD specs

[15:28:45 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> w00t

[15:28:48 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> foxnesn: thanks

[15:29:05 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> i was looking for the admin group in the moodle database....i was desperate

[15:35:31 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> atilling mentioned 'login throttleing'

[15:35:39 CDT(-0500)] <kickehy> any idea what he means?

[15:37:04 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> dos countermeasure

[15:37:32 CDT(-0500)] <wgthom> mostly for misconfigured clients
