We don't back up workstations at all. It's a little different because it's RHEL but there is nothing on the workstations at all. Users can't even save to them. Apps, projects, archives, home directories, etc are all automounted.
Automounting is the bomb.
Isn't that kinda the same as folder redirection, except that Windows can have a local copy in case the network location become unavailable?
The idea is the same. But the advantage on Linux/Unix is I can automount pretty much everything, including all of my applications. As long as everyone's path points to /apps or wherever you mount to they will run apps from there. Also since 90% of my system customization (themes, icons, etc) are in my home directory all of my customizations follow me as well (including my desktop 😛 )
Yeah, while there are times I like the registry, I do at times long for the days of Windows 3.x and config files for apps. Super easy to migrate, etc.
Even in the days of Windows 3.x and before, you still had a registry and regedit available. Just not so many reasons that you HAD to go change things in it.
Instead of testing emails with a fax, get the email working itself first. Work on sending emails directly, once that is working, add in the fax piece. That will make this a ton easier to test.
I mean yeah, VyOS is a great firewall/router, but the implication of that statement is for IDS/Content Filtering.
VyOS uses Squid if you want it, same as pfSense, Smoothwall, Untangle, etc. So content filtering you can do just the same. Most people using VyOS don't use it for the same reasons that you and I do not put that on our routers, but if the goal is to do that, it enables it the same as those other products but with an opportunity to learn it rather than have it just magically appear.
Did not realize that they had squid baked in. Iassumed it had tobe added.
Baked in, but off by default. So we all ignore it 🙂
Attempting to install Office 2013 using www.office.com/setup but that requires you to have the microsoft account info of the user. Is there a way for me to install this without account info and plug that in later?
This is a keycard setup then? Yes you have to enter info to do the setup.
Here's the one I've been using (before I found out about ShareX today - I'm gonna check that one out as soon as I have time) https://lightscreen.com.ar/
So you are only looking to sync AD? Or something else? I don't think that you need a clean slate, normal sync (not full integration) definitely does not require bidirectional clean slates.
Thanks, guys. If I'm unable to get XAPI up and running I may look at involving HA-Lizard support. I'm taking things cautiously at the moment as my VMs are still operational, so I've got a bit of time to find the best approach.
Might make sense if this is actively in production and XAPI just won't come back.
Be careful with them online if you let them play online. There are a lot of crazy older Minecraft people out there who love ruining younger people's stuff.
I am assuming the only reason you would buy a BB is for integration with BES, but since they are now running android is there any difference between a BB and another android device when it comes to MDM?
