I've seen it mentioned but maybe it wasn't here.

@dashrender said in ScreenConnect download file from script:

So who submitted (based on what recommendation) for a sonicwall when the grant was requested?

The grantor came up with that. The agency only filled out a form that said how many full and part time people they had doing certain functions and the grant had a formula that said how many of each model number of different pieces of equipment you got. They even speced a printer that isn't available through normal channels. (discontinued) The printer was probably the dumbest thing because they already had a large multifunction copier on each floor. No need for the printer at all, but it didn't matter. Then they send auditors to visit the site and make sure it's plugged in.

These things baffle me, but at the end of the day you take them because if you accept the SonicWall you get all the other gear on the grant. It's frustrating to say the least because I can't standardize the agency because different grants specify different gear.

Like I said it's real frustrating watching money get wasted like that. Government agencies have no incentive to do things to save money. Politicians only pat themselves on the back for money that gets thrown at one group or another.

@lakshmana Just paste your exact commands and the exact error.

@jaredbusch said in N3024 can't transfer file to tftp server (Yes the path is correct and TFTP is running):

@dave247 Well obviously, because you missed something. Otherwise it would have the same result with the wizard as you did manually.

Not having a copy of your config vs a copy of the wizard config, who knows what it was.

Yeah I'm sure I missed something, but the wizard really only asks for admin name, password, then the switch ip information, then it boots. All these things you can also set manually, which I did. I set them exactly the same as in the wizard. I checked everything numerous times and found no discrepancies. Beats me.

objWorkbook2.Worksheets(“Sheet1”).Range(“A1”).PasteSpecial Paste =xlValues

There should be a Colon after the Paste and before the = sign....

Paste:=xlValues ?

@dashrender said in Do not let your Nextcloud 12 instance upgrade to PHP 7.2:

Is there a reason that people aren't upgrading to version 13?

Nextcloud 13 is still beta3. I'm not comfortable with using beta for production use.

aww.. that totally makes sense!

Also this PHP issue has been around for 3 months with zero action by Nextcloud.

@manxam Thanks now it works in command prompt from the .bat file

@emad-r said in Moving Windows 8 VM:

@irj

The VM can be moved, I wonder if you should sysprep it or not ? I dont think you need that if you will give the VM identical emulated drivers.

Regarding licensing, there are channels for windows licensing (OEM, Retail and Volume Licenses), only OEM channel gets tied to the hardware motherboard, for example ACER laptops with Windows license pre-install, if your Windows 8 is Retail (bought it from online store), and you have license key , you can use it and it will work.

Last I checked (which was a bit ago), you could just use the key (Retail) on the new computer and it would deactivate on the old one.

VL is upgrade only, not a channel for the OS itself. OEM and Retail Box are the only sources of the base license.

So this would only be an option if this is retail box or going back on the same hardware as before.

@dustinb3403 said in KVM in Production - Build it yourself:

Building a template VM with your backup agent installed might work (urbackup etc) as they'd register to your server.

Buy individual agents is again more than anyone really wants to manage.

I think we have two KVM backup discussions going on, so I'll post a link to my other reply here:

https://mangolassi.it/topic/15826/kvm-and-back-ups/23

Works great on Fedora 27.

dir alias is easier to type btw.

@tim_g said in Do you flush ? the Linux RAM cache buffer.:

Did I understand correctly that it's a Java application? If so, how are you launching/running it? What CLI command you using?

Oh i know they use a whole file for those arguments, ill see if i can check that and get back to you, what I can recall currently is- xms 512 and -xmx 2028

Is that enough memory to start the java application? That means you are starting it with 512MB of RAM and giving it a max of 2028 MB.

Never specified whether he was wanting to watch college or NFL. Not many NFL game come on ESPN these days do they? I'm thinking maybe he's interested in watching college bowl games or something.

I think your best options are going to be a streaming service like SlingTV or similar if you have access. I don't know what all is available if you're outside the US though.

Always worth asking.... is AD even needed? Maybe moving to local accounts would make more sense.

Not a bad idea. I’ve been going that route for mobile users for awhile.

How do you manage them? or do you just not worry about them?

You can use IaaS such as JumpCLoud or anything else.

Why replace it with another version of AD?

JumpCloud is not AD.

Too bad ovs isnt in the repos for RHEL/CentOS. You can set up these private networks and connect them through a VXLAN with ovs. That way you can have something like a separate dev network on the same hosts and they can communicate between hosts.

Not available in the epel repo?

That is apparently the case unless my google--fu isn't up to snuff

Nope. It is available in Fedora though. If you want to install it you have to manually build the RPMs. While not hard to build it would be a pain to maintain updates.

OVS is used by oVirt so maybe the centos ovirt repo has it (or the ovirt stable repo)

I'm assuming it's just building the RPM since it's not in the normal repo.

At the time we didn't have a SIP option. Now that they are trying to make us pay a $7000 bill for their F-up we'll be looking for a new SIP provider.

VoIP.ms and Flowroute I use and are good.

Twilio, I have not used yet, but it has good recommendations.

I forget their reason for doing so, but i remember it made sense.

Corrupted config files was one of the reason.
