Both clients were able to see the DFS root again this morning - without even touching them.

How annoying.

Si senior...

@JaredBusch said in RAID recommendation for Hyper-V host:

@i3 you do not install server 2012 r2 onto the hardware. You install Hyper-V Server 2012 R2

This is very important.

Besides the licensing aspect, is it important for performance reasons? So the host can dedicate as as many resources to its vm's as possible?

Regardless of those other two posts above... what do you mean by licensing aspect? Just trying to get a feel for where you are.

@scottalanmiller Brilliant thanks for the info on that.

No problem. Also check this out...

@JaredBusch

Excellent. BTW, the UI for the EdgeSwitch on the latest firmware is pretty nice. A lot nicer than the Dell switches I'm used to configuring in the past.

Lol, sure... But if a graphics design person can't work out this situation, they probably belong on another line of work. Considering the OP. 😉

Cool. We're going on an online, non-live training course. It's still been really cool. Not quite as much hands on type stuff as I'd like.

I'll have to find out how much the test is by itself, it would seem.

I think it is $500 or $600 and you have to send in documentation proving your security background.

Wow. Sounds...interesting, considering I don't really have any official security background. It was all "other duties as necessary" at my last job, lol.

@Reid-Cooper said in NextCloud box:

It's a hobby device. NextCoud said so themselves. Not meant for business use. Just for fun.

Yeah, certainly not a business device, it isn't powerful enough for that. It is meant for home users.

And yes, it is designed to not require maintenance. That is, the OS automatically updates, as does Nextcloud itself. I think that at the moment, you'll have to re-enable apps, that is the only thing. We're working on making that work automatically too. Help is obviously welcome.

Oh OK this just got a lot more interesting. I personally feel that anything that goes to a consumer needs to handle 99.9% of maintenance tasks completely on its own. If it doesn't then most of us know that in a consumer environment it will never happen, and we end up with IOT devices helping to cause 1 TB DDOS attacks.

So I found a quirk, not sure if it's an actual bug. For incremental backups to work you have to use the NFS syntax (BACKUP_URL="nfs://<server>"). If you mount the share, and then write to the local mount it won't do incremental.

I find this happens most often to my users when they are trying to reconnect to a RemoteApp that they had left open and got disconnected from. I've seen it happen to Word & Excel, as well as a number of internal applications that we use here.

Unfortunately, like you, I usually have to log in to the server and boot them off.... I usually just keep an RDS session open to that server and leave a script running to make it easier for me to kill a user's hung session.

autoUserSessionDetails.ps1 Should help you with that. If your machine is AD joined, you can run it from your own machine, but I still recommend running it from the Connection Broker.

@wrx7m said in Offline files nightmare:

I had a freezing issue where the system would just stop responding for like 30 seconds at a time. It wasn't the well-documented one because I have a single partition for the OS and data. There was also another issue with the way that it was handling multiple networks being connected. After reverting, it worked fine. I tried installing it several weeks later with all patches and it seems good to go for now.

Awww, I did hear about that issue, just never saw it. All of my systems have the extra partitions as part of install.

Curious as to which spam filter service this is...

Awesome

Comforting.... so so comforting...

The issue was resolved moments after calling our Rep (so something sporadic)

@Ambarishrh You're welcome, sorry I didn't have the exact answer for you.

But that really helped me to find the right solution 🙂

Stupid me...but weird.

Nah... Dumm Mikersoft for freaking out plugs that want to help us improve our privacy, lol.

LOL - really? I consider this more likely a problem with privacy badger being overzealous in their blocking.

Just like how we didn't used to see locally hosted ads on ML because the file names had the size in them.

Oh @Minion-Queen I see the ads now 🙂

Yeah, Idk why I didn't think of PB as default...it seems a growing number of websites don't work nicely with it...uplay is another one I found out the other day...

I recall seeing the numbers for a while, but I thought there was a period where the name of the person came back and the chat room number was gone.. but now it's back again.

got it working. I did the burflags thing. On the server throwing the 13508, I backed up sysvol, stopped ntfrs and changed the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup\BurFlags to D4 , started ntfrs, and then went to the other two domain controllers.
On them I stopped ntfrs and changed:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup\BurFlags to D2
and started ntfrs.

after a few minutes the logs were clean. I logged in to a workstation and group policy didn't throw any errors.
