    @bbigford said in Exchange Online - Outlook signature - forwarding and original formatting:

    Using Exchange Online, newly migrated users from personal Gmail accounts. They created signatures and set the forwarding/reply with their signatures.

    The issue they are having is how Exchange handles original formatting. If I email the user with a signature, they then forward that and it keeps the nice formatting (HTML). If they receive a scanned document from the copier, and then forward that email (PDF with likely plain text formatting), their signature is plain text and looks terrible.

    I've messed around with the keep original formatting within Options > Mail, but still can't get their signature to display nicely with forwarding scanned docs from the copier.

    I can't really just say "that's how it is with this new email system" because when they scanned to their Gmail account, their signatures showed images, font color, etc.

    Do they have a transport rule for the email signatures? Usually the Email issue with Text Message format.

    Surge protectors, inline UPS. UPS maybe not for single devices but for a whole room / floor. Would be way more efficient. Be aware of printers, @JaredBusch said that before

    @dave247 said in Quickest way to set up Zabbix to monitor managed switch metrics??:

    Well after adding the rest of my switches, Zabbix decided to take a crap... the configuration cache was topping out. I increased the Cachesize from 8 to 16 but things seem to have stopped working anyway... after another day of futile struggling, I decided to just shut down the system and give LibreNMS a try.

    That's bizarre... I've got almost 100 servers half a dozen hosts and dozens of switches reporting to our zabbix server.

    I know.. At first I figured it was because I was using the 4 different templates and after I added all 8 switches, it was being over-loaded. But then I realized that it's probably normal to have hundreds of systems sending data to Zabbix, so that shouldn't be the issue.. well it's par for the course for me.

    I just got LibreNMS up and running and it's working like a charm. Got all my switches added and I'm watching beautiful graphs going before my eyes. It just seems to work. Zabbix was a mess...

    Glad you got something to work! 😄

    We can look at DevOps as an extension of Lean manufacturing, with extras added like the Toyota Kata, and modifications made in order to make with work better and make sense to software development.

    It is a great case study of how to successfully apply Lean to a different industry, and a great many things can be taken from it in order to apply to other industries.

    For example, I know of a botched implementation of applying Lean to healthcare, and I believe if a DevOps style route was taken, it would be more successful. DevOps isn't applying straight Lean itself but making modifications where it makes sense, and I think a lot of the modifications made by DevOps would make sense to other industries.

    There is "Lean IT", but I would be wary of applying it without doing some studying on DevOps first, since I view DevOps as the gold standard of how to apply Lean to your industry (aside from the whole buzzword confusion)

    @bnrstnr said in XO behind proxy or exposed directly?:

    nly web server I wanted to use, would there be any benefit at all of using a reverse proxy instead of just forwarding 443 directly to XO?

    Still it would help for security purposes.

    @tim_g said in .local vs .com:

    I've been working at a .local for almost 5 years now... no issues whatsoever, and no additional work required. No reason to change, probably never will unless a need comes up. We also use internal CA, for all users and public email... no issues there.

    We've got a ton of clients using them from over the years. I just built a couple new environments this week and used ad.domain.com for them. It would help not having to deal with an internal CA.

    Sometimes an internal CA is extremely beneficial in an AD environment.

    In my case, there's hundreds of users in an AD/O365 environment. The internal MS CA does everything 100% automatically as far as certificate creation and distribution goes, including adding certs to the machine when they logon to another PC automatically.... (the certs follow them).

    That would be a nightmare using something external.

    Oh, I should mention that all certificates are using company.com... so being that the internal domain is .local has no effect on whether or not you must use an internal or external CA.

    @jaredbusch said in Least Privilege Accounts Setup:

    I create an AD account specifically for local admin rights.

    This account information is ususally given to department managers.
    So if software or something needs installed, and they choose not to contact me, they can.

    They are also warned that fixing something will be billed...

    So you have one AD account setup that multiple department managers use when they need something that requires admin privileges? And then what you give that account local admin rights on each machine, or give it some sort of admin authority within the domain itself?

    That account gets local admin rights only. No other access.

    If I was an on site IT department, I woudl probably do it a bit different. I would have time to experiment and setup better methods.

    Yeah this is what I'm going through now and why I'm coming to the community to get input. Trying to think through this carefully and make sure I do it right and the way I want it done the first time.

    With the help of GPO Preferences, you could take advantage of using Item-level targeting for Local Users and Groups to fine tune who should have local admin privileges depending on the user, groups and/or computers.

    This is what I do. Works like a champ.
