  @Pete-S thanks for pointing this out, it does look good, I'd like to test it out. I'm suspecting that since it's a file copy operation from Windows, there'll be nothing like auto-reconnect, retry on reconnect etc etc?

  @scottalanmiller said in Cellular backup options: @AdamF said in Cellular backup options: @dbeato said in Cellular backup options: @AdamF said in Cellular backup options: @scottalanmiller Yeah, Our team, when working from home, likes to RDP into their PCs at the office. They use either traditional VPN, or Zerotier. Some of them claim to have issues with Zerotier, claiming it is "slow" for them. I never use traditional VPN anymore and I only use Zerotier if I have to RDP to anything at the office. I never experience slowness of any kind with Zerotier. Yeah, change is "hard" Zerotier is was such a game changer for us. Remember the old MPLS / pay a fortune days? DO NOT miss those. I've never had to deal with that. We had better options than MPLS before MPLS hit the market. Even by 2000 we had ways to handle that stuff well without MPLS. Yeah I only dealt with MPLS in a larger global company I worked for previously. They spend SOOO much money on AT&T managed WAN connections. Like insane amounts of money.

  @stacksofplates said in I need this script to email the log it generates: @Pete-S said in I need this script to email the log it generates: OK, I understand. Thanks. Also, I wasn't trying to be abrasive. I kind of worded that strongly. I just don't like Bash much. I find it annoying, so I'd rather use something else unless it's a really simple thing. No problem. Bash is primitive for sure. Pick the right tool for the job I guess.

  Nothing specifically for testing, the calendar module in Thunderbird should at least let you test connectivity though. Don't know what kind of logging options it provides but that's where I'd start

  @bishnitro said in Defective Laptop - how to get browsers bookmarks: How to get Edge, chrome and firefox bookmarks from defective laptop? Is it possible to extract it from the SSD w/out booting the Windows 10 since the laptop is defective? Yes. Like @DustinB3403 I'd pull the drive out, and put it in an adapter/caddy. Then can copy the user profile/specific folders & files elsewhere. Be sure to encourage the user to back up their stuff.

  @IRJ said in Notification mail in linux?: @Pete-S said in Notification mail in linux?: Or is email perhaps not a good way to get notifications when there is a problem? Maybe email in this manner is old-skool and it would be better to use something else? Like external log server, system monitoring (Zabbix) perhaps? Yeah I would use SIEM. Then you'd create and manage your alerts from there. You could send to email, slack, etc. You can use postfix for alerting as JB mentioned. I use postfix on the my personal servers because I don't manage enough to justify a SIEM. I thought that SIEM was only used for security monitoring. What SIEMs for example are we talking about for this type of application?

  @DustinB3403 said in What do you use to manage multiple Linux servers?: @black3dynamite said in What do you use to manage multiple Linux servers?: @travisdh1 said in What do you use to manage multiple Linux servers?: Ansible and salt are my first two choices. Cockpit can work as well, but not as easily centrally managed. Fedora gets all the love when it comes to having the latest version of Cockpit too. Technically you could install the latest version of Cockpit on any distro..... Of course we can use the source tarball. It just that Fedora makes it easier to keep up with the latest stable version.

  @openit said in Suggest a simple free / open source Network Monitoring software.: For switch, the following is the configuration, I mean it is on SNMP. Following is info that I can see for it: Is it possible to pull info every port of switch, just like Spiceworks Networ Monitor used to do? If yes, what template I would need to use or any config? Most switches we have are Cisco SG300. Yes, Cisco and general SNMP templates can be applied to the host and it will start to pull in information if you configured SNMP correctly. https://share.zabbix.com/network_devices/cisco

  @Pete-S said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee: @stacksofplates said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee: @Pete-S said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee: @StorageNinja said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee: @JaredBusch said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee: Hardware is not worth the fucking time to get back. If the company thinks wasting man hours on that is a good idea the company is insane While I largely agree, our R&D laptops are ~2-3K a pop. (fully max spec' MPB or XPS with onsite repair agreements). I did hear we have started on the Mac's using DEP, so the device will auto-enroll in MDM even if the device is wiped. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204142 Makes no sense developing on a laptop IMHO - unless you're talking about another kind of R&D in another field. On our team we remote into development servers and all development and testing is run there. Which means the computer you're actually sitting in front of just needs to be able to run a browser, rdp, ssh etc. So any machine suitable for general office work would get the job done. So no 2-3K laptops needed for development, even if that is not the primary reason. I kind of assumed everyone worked that way but haven't actually given it much thought until now. I haven't really seen anyone do this other than CAD work. Everywhere I've been it's local development, possibly using Eclipse Che or Coder or something for a remote IDE but still local. VSCode and JetBrains tools allow you to include your development environment in a container. So when you open the project it will open inside of a container with all of the dependencies included. That's the best workflow ive seen so far. I believe you and find it very interesting. Wov. If that's how most people work, I'm just blown away. I assumed everyone was remote and had full on development and test environments at their disposal. They usually do have full dev/test environments but it's all containerized. So it's trivial to run that locally. Then when you are satisfied with local results push to your branch and have it auto build/deploy against the actual dev/test environments with something like Flux/Argo. This is still remote, GitOps is all about remote workflows.

  Hey guys sorry for late update.... I still didn't fix my issue....like I say before I am not a PRO so I really need a step by step help if someone has time. The main issue is that the two site can't ping each other but I can from the laptop and access to both network LAN clients. I tried to create a new GATEWAY and select the Zerotier interface + made a static rule but is not working.

  @Obsolesce said in Active Directory - User Attribute RFID/HID Badge: @DustinB3403 said in Active Directory - User Attribute RFID/HID Badge: @Dashrender I'm a 3rd party to the end customer here. Acting as the middle man as the customer's IT department wanted to engage outside support to try and vet different products. I candidly told the customer that while this product will work, it won't work with all of the features they want without some substantial changes to their infrastructure and that the support (at least from this vendor) is pretty awful. The simple approach here is to not integrate RFID/HID's to the system and simply use the AD Integration with the built-in QR codes that each member is assigned. Just because something may be supported, doesn't imply that it is support. Except in this case the vendor very clearly has stated they support you adding custom attributes within AD.
