SharePoint's wiki system works great.

Is this how you handle password storage as well?

For a lot of things, yes. Sharepoint has a bit of security so for many password storage tasks this works great since the wiki contents are secured to just the resources that need them.

So you just lock the security permissions down to specific users on specific pages, correct?

Correct. And our wikis are done by department or team. So if a team needs resources, it would be in their wiki. We don't share very many passwords, so this isn't a major issue. The best course of action is to reduce the need for shared passwords as much as possible.

I just found this tool
http://www.robotronic.de/runasspcEn.html

It does work as advertised - it will launch a file that is set via compatibility mode with Admin rights. The UAC prompt still kicks, but that's tolerable.

To me.

A Backup is a read only copy that can not be alterted.. Otherwise it's living data, And you can not verify the data has not changed/added or removed since the backup was taken.

We tested the EliteBooks.. Didn't like them that well.

I personally owned a HP Pro x2 612 G1. It was interesting but it had a lot of issues.

What didn't you like about the Elitebooks (did you test these new low power ones, or just the "standard" form factor Elitebooks that have been around a while)? We've had some of the Elitebook 2560s, etc. Just standard laptops with good specs. I don't care for the driver support when it comes to WDS, but any laptop seems to be tricky since drivers are so particular with laptops.

Have you tried the M series processors yet? If so, how'd they do for you?

We have some of the Skylake CPUs I believe but not in the HPs we tested. They were fine. We don't worry about them that much..

Elitebooks we tried where a mixture of standard and ultrabooks. The quality wasn't there for us they would not hold up in our environment. The Docks for them are slated to be discounited in favor of USB 3.0 only so that was a major factor too.

Oh I know it's from foxconn. But the hardware testing that they put into the components is what makes it run well.

Not who makes the hardware.

This is easy. Start going to a Sikh temple and tell them that your beard is a part of your religion. Argument over.

That was one of my suggestions, except you don't even have to go to the temple, who is going to check? And hey, I said the same thing and you got two points and I got one? It's just a damn popularity contest with you people! 😉

Sorry I didn't read all the posts!

Most of mine don't give away either, they sell, granted for next to nothing, but it's still sold.

or it's off to the recycler.

Try ShareX it's a great tool for screen captures, snipping etc.

that place sounds exactly like Drop Box, only a little smaller. I visited Drop Box last year.. glass conference rooms, open floor plan, almost no cubicals, everyone wearing headphones.

free lunch/drinks/snacks everyday... etc.

Headphones are the new cubicles.

Man, yeah - I'm wondering is this dog is just to old for that.

I'm happy with having my own office. I don't even like cubicals, I get distracted too much.

That's why people like them. Cubicles are the "go to" for people looking to talk to friends at the office and have a solid excuse for why they did no work.

I'll actually agree with that. Having an actual office, even if it's no bigger than a cubical, with a door is definitely helpful in my ability to concentrate.

Yeah, I'm totally useless with cubicles or an open plan. If I hear people talking, I can't think. And cubicle plans means that someone is always talking about gambling or sports. Always. It never ends.

You can also block it at the SIP level with your provider. Do that along with international dialing, save yourself some headache.

If the SIP provider offers this, definitely. Using a route to do it stops your extensions (if compromised) from using them. Blocking them at the SIP carrier stops your PBX if compromised from calling them.

Neither stops you if the SIP provider is the one making the calls (looking at you, Megapath.)

The USG is an all in wonder device. I hate it.

But there is a market for it and I absolutely do not blame Ubiquiti for putting stuff out there.

I just noticed @Dashrender's pretty pink mouse.

So cute.

And the Jimmy John's menu in the background.

Not the stitch storm trooper/jedi though?

Except that it's Stitch as General Grievous, not a stormtrooper 😉

General Stitchvous 😉

@Dashrender I've always wondered how expensive the old SGI meeting rooms were to equip.
Example: link text

1 MILLLLLLLLion dollars.

Oh, I guarantee the computer running all that would retail for much more than that! The one I actually saw had 3 12' projection screens, mics at every seat, and 4 control stations in back, all driven by a single Origin 3000. This would have been back in 1999.

@coliver Yep, already did, and configured.

But unless he puts an official ticket in, it is not getting turned on.

And this isn't a matter of "I need this to do my job" its a matter of why the hell is this really needed?

Are you supposed to be a "blind employee" that no one but internal staff should know about?

I agree, whatever depravity you get up to is between you and your living god.

the thing is here my senior did the migration when the operation master did not changed he gave me the responsibility to me to do. As far i searched everyone suggesting to redo the migration activity.

So what can i do now???

Right now, the payments are made only for the public performance right in the underlying musical composition (otherwise known as the “musical work” – the lyrics and musical notes that make up the song). No royalty is paid by businesses to the copyright holders in the sound recordings under Federal law (but see our concerns about whether certain court rulings may cloud this conclusion when dealing with state laws and pre-1972 sound recordings, and see this article about the Register of the Copyright calling for a more general sound recording performance royalty)

If the money isn't going to the copyright holders, who is it going to? Are they sure? I thought when paying ASCAP, BMI and SESAC, that those three entities basically are representing most of the music copyright holders.. and were being paid on the back end.

Warning! Rant Mode On

Musicians are notoriously bad at reading and understanding contracts. Those companies probably do hold the rights to stream most music, but the artists get jack. Trust me, I've seen the contracts, and told a couple of small hopeful artists that they are getting ripped off. At least the old highway robber barons would let you keep enough that you could turn a profit and provide further business. The big music labels and almost all other content management companies don't even care about getting return business.

Rant Mode Disengaged

You would think, with things like Youtube and the internet in general that artists would see this and be able to have a better situation. Hell look at the beave (ug, can't believe I went there).

@Dashrender We don't have a price list defined yet, it's free for now while in beta.

I essentially am a freelancer. I'm a 1 man business, and i'm net 30. That being said, flat fee projects are something I do, and when i'm billing a flat fee, usually there is a 1/2 upon starting the project, and 1/2 when deliverables are.... delivered. i've only had a few clients not pay up within their 30 day window.... which for a small guy like myself is not fun.

Now, this situation you're saddled with seems to not be any fun at all. Sorry you're having bad luck with a "local".

Local, do what you said you'd do. We all in some way or anothe rhelp each other out on this site. You being all willy nilly makes it harder to trust each other.... so just be legit
