[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
[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
[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
