Comment on SharePoint 2013 page loads takes a very long time by Thomas Balkeståhl

NP. You should however try to find the root cause and fix it, if performance is restored and it is a production environemnt, you would want to have the distributed cache functionality restored. Some features will not even work without it.
But, you are welcome!

Nevermind, didn’t have Publishing features enabled which did the trick. Thanks again for the excellent guide.

Hi.
No, not missing anything. Not sure if I am right here but I Think that you have masterpage and asp.net masterpage depending on whether you have activated the publishing site Collection feature or not.
Something like that…I have seen both as well and you can select any one of them.

Hope that helps

Excellent, thank you.

One issue I’m having: After uploading my new master page, the 2nd dialog appears to select the Content Type. In my dropdown list of content types there is no ASP NET Master Page. My only options are:

Master Page
Master Page Preview
JavaScript Display Template
Document
Display Template Code
Design File

Am I missing something? Thank You.

Hi Szabolcs.
Yes, you can rather easily do this by finding the proper class/id of that link(+New Document) for exampel using F12/Developer toolbar in Internet Explorer. Select Arrow, then point to the link and check what css classes are affecting the object, this is shown at the bottom right in dev toolbar.
Once you know what class to use(you can even try changing it in dev toolbar to see the effect), you can add or edit that class in your custom css file to make the change permanent.
Try it and let me know how it goes. If I had the time I would add it as a separate guide for you.

Comment on The first Kerberos guide for SharePoint 2013 technicians by Thomas Balkeståhl

Hi Radu.
Glad to hear that you got it working without compromising in security. You should perhaps take a look at this link for starters, it gives a good explanation on the inner workings of claims. It’s 2010 but its still a good piece of eye-opener.
Read that and then try and find the best info on 2013/kerberos/Claims.

Good luck
