      Why did you delete your old images before you tested the new ones?

      and if it's not working now, and was then - yeah you're probably right, you're hosed 😛

      I work in IT......... don't practice what I preach 😄 (i.e. Backups!)

        Upvote for honesty. I'll actually join you and confess the same.

        Granted I don't have much that's worth backing up, but none of it is.

          LOL - yeah I don't delete old images until I have a working new one - I guess we all live and learn.

            On SpiceWorks. What?? Even if he did chattr +i on everything, he would still be able to access it from root just not change it.

            I done a migration for windows share to a linux one
            I used "freenas" at the beginning I first made test and everything seemed fine, it was easy to configure and I hadn´t problems with permissions.
            I was the only guy who knows linux, those days and I wasn´t good enough in linux I was a begginer, so my manager gave me green light to implemented in the real server
            Migration to freenas was quite easy and quick, It was working but I made a change in user permissions and every single carpet and archive become blocked, I couldn´t access to any carpet even if I was the root user!
            Because the CEO was very angry and he demanded a solution I ended installing server 2008 r2 and configured permissions.
            My recomendation is before anthing you do, do a backup and if you are not an expert in linux, don´t make changes unless you know what are you doing exactly and last one, test a lot! try everything in a lab
            good luck!

              @johnhooks Yeah I'm confused...

              It sounds like he revoked all permissions from his Linux File Server though because he wasn't certain of what he was doing.

                Even if you do a chmod 000 you can still access files through root. Ya I have no idea what he did.

                  Yeah, he just started breaking things without knowing what was going on. Same thing would happen on Windows. Basically, clueless people should not be allowed to IT 😉

                    Unless it's like when you do chmod 644 on /usr/bin/chmod and then can't ever change permissions on anything. Maybe he did chmod 000 on / so nothing would execute period.

                    How you get to that point, I don't know. I think these are the same kind of people that run fork bombs because they saw a funny picture telling them it would be hilarious.

                      Breaking things is fine provided it's in a test environment as part of the learning experience ^_^

                              If you do puke, do it like a boss all over the new boss to show who really is the boss...

                              Am'I'right?

                                    If you puke act like it's a part of your presenation.

                                        If it can be scripted, script it.

                                        Comment the devil out of the script so you don't leave yourself wondering why your black magic works.

                                            Generally I agree but it's only for a short time to gather info from our dilapidated WIFI AP's... Ugh. I'll sleep on it tonight and see if I care enough to do it tomorrow.
