@jaredbusch said in KVM under fedora workstation - improve performance:

I have zero issues using virt manager viewr for my local guest VM

for remote, I would use RDP or ScreenConnect.

Nothing wrong with it when needed, but it doesn't need to perform well for its role.

@obsolesce said in Network Vulnerability Scan with REporting:

What does everything OpenVAS does, and giving you the same info such as fixes/resolutions, but is faster for larger environments?

Yeah, but OpenVas is a resource pig, and the reporting isnt very good when you are reporting against thousands of systems, and you need to break them up into smaller groups. Also it isnt ideal for enterprise as permissions are a nightmare when you only want certain people to see certain assets.

It is actually much more expensive for a large company to try to use OpenVas

I'm not using it for thousands of systems at once, and permissions are not an issue. At most a scan is against a hundred or two devices at once. Maybe that's why I haven't noticed any slow or clunkyness.

But for in the future, I am curious of what to use that compares to OpenVAS, but is better with speed and permissions?

@black3dynamite I used the old one, and it worked. I succesfully installed xo now. Normally, I'd like to know what went wrong, but it's too late and friday 🙂

Latest update, Altex in Reghin has some lower end Chromebooks. Not exactly what we want, but might do the trick.

@black3dynamite That forces a change at logon, but does not immediately expire the exisiting password.

But, if I was in a position to need to do this, I would set that flag and then force logoff the system anyway.

Because even if you expire the password, Windows does not care about the already logged in session.

@jaredbusch said in RDP error on Fedora:

Potentially related, do you have all the codecs installed?

https://mangolassi.it/topic/15881/using-html5-playback-in-firefox-on-fedora

Yes that is directly related and exactly what needs to be done.

I mentioned in my post that it's the two middle ones in the screen shot that are missing, H264, that are installed with ffmpeg-libs.

I'm using Fedora 28 Workstation with KVM running on cinnamon... i just use copy/paste (ctrl+C/V)

Or do you mean on a KVM-only host? (gui-less)

I haven't tried drag n drop... no idea why, but I will tomorrow!

@strongbad said in Windows 10 Odd Desktop Behavior - No Links Working, No Settings:

User confirmed, it appears to be working. Edge isn't working, but it's not needed. Just made Chrome the default and everything that was remaining was fixed. Thanks everyone, looks like it is good now.

Awesome!

@ignaceq said in Looking to ditch windows at work....:

I used Evolution on my box and this works very well. But i stopped using it in favour of OWA once we were on office365. Evolution still works on office365, but the owa interface (chromium and firefox alike) works very well.

I had to go through a million settings to get it the way I wanted it, but now I am liking it ok. Definitely not as good as Outlook or OWA, but usable.

I also found that you cannot trust Evolution to listen for exchange updates. I found it was spotty and unreliable. I set it to check with server every minute instead. I know that isn't ideal, but I can't miss stuff for 20 minutes.

Do you also have Listen for server change notifications checked too?

I tried just checking that originally .

@wrcombs My newbness is about to show again.

Hey, its okay. Im a newb too! I just have good research "skillz" (if you can call google savvy a skill....)
We can always learn more. Maybe even starting your own thread with your problems would give everyone a better idea, and the ability to help you out.

@dustinb3403 said in CentOS 7 enabling Telnet:

And I got the port forwarding to work.

firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-forward-port=port=9090:proto=tcp:toport=23

I can now telnet to my server on port 9090 (which forward to 23).

Nice!

@emad-r this app can be connected to ONLYOFFICE cloud (corporate or free personal), or to the self-hosted version so that you can work with your files stored online. It does not work with NC, but thnx for the idea.

However, we have an app to connect ONLYOFFICE server to Nextcloud - https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/onlyoffice-owncloud

Thanks for this post, @JaredBusch . I got the previous month's bill from TPX and am going to start going through it to see how much we can save by switching from our PRI.

We have to upgrade (replace) our Mitel/ShoreTel Shoregear T1, so that will cost a few grand.

@black3dynamite

I'm not entirely sure... I'm very new at Linux and have just downloaded the HP link as above.

I finally found the GPO setting that caused this issue-

Computer Configuration>Policies>Windows Settings>Security Settings>Local Policies>User Rights Assignment

Load and unload device drivers - Enabled with Everyone and NT Authority\Authenticated Users listed.

I had to change it to Not configured.

I use the Dell Site and quote it as is since we are a partners and then provide the quote with the spec I want to our VAR (GHA Technologies) and they provide me the quote and anything comparable from HPE or other server vendor.

@dustinb3403 ok got it, weird one

@mike-davis said in Has ConnectWise Set ScreenConnect Adrift as Ghost Ship Software?:

Could it be that they are not focusing on supporting self hosted options since it generates so little revenue for them?

If this is their goal, they've screwed the pooch on marketing. Informing customers that they aren't able to maintain their software and that it has security issues is the exact opposite thing that you do if you want to convince them to moved to a completely opaque system and "just trust" that they will keep your systems safe.

If this is their goal, they are doing exactly the opposite of what would be smart about it. If they wanted to move customers in this direction, they should make customers happy and move them this way, instead of pushing on premises sales and not provided good support.
