Depends what you want. ANSYS works well, is stupid expensive, and runs on Linux. But not sure how much CFD, acoustic, thermal, and mechanical engineering you're doing.

Most of the major CAD and/or CFD applications are available on Linux. Back in the 90s I got to deal with running them on IRIX and OpenVMS. Got into the window when everyone started switching to Windows as well (Pentium III era).

@DustinB3403 said in Unix Command line - Printer Details:

Here is the completed command.

lpoptions -p <NAME> | grep -o "printer-make-and-model='Your Printer make and Model"

That outputs the exact detail I needed!

lpoptions -p SHCSL_209_ColorPrinter | sed -r "s/^.*(printer-make-and-model.*)'.*$/\1/g; s/'//g; s/printer-make-and-model=//g"

This will remove all the unnecessary text, printer-make-and-model=, and the single quotes.

Yeah I'm also able to just use lpoptions -p SHCSL_209_ColorPrinter | grep "'SHCSL_209_ColorPrinter'" and get what I need in a single line response.

how long has systemname been a thing?

Seems to only appear in Debian/Ubuntu systems.

6c6f5d62-6bfe-41ba-8b32-3b528463af7c-image.png

Let me get some clarification - is systemname meant as a variable - i.e. you put in the real system name OR are you literally supposed to put '127.0.0.1 systemname' ?

Actual host name

awww.. ok, then my question wasn't really needed...
Thanks! Misunderstanding on my part.

@DustinB3403 said in Kibana Wazuh Agent isn't showing anything in integrity:

Well I'm making progress, I at least have nginx responding when I hit the page with An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.1.100:5601. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.

Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; listen 5601; listen [::]:5601; return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl; listen [::]:443; ssl_certificate /etc/pki/tls/certs/kibana-access.pem; ssl_certificate_key /etc/pki/tls/private/kibana-access.key; access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.error.log; location / { auth_basic "Restricted"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/conf.d/kibana.htpasswd; proxy_pass http://localhost:5601/; } }

Why are you listening on 5601?

proxy_pass http://localhost:5601/; will redirect 5601 to 443

That is no longer in the file, I was testing with it. The below is current.

server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl; listen [::]:443; ssl on; ssl_certificate /etc/pki/tls/certs/kibana-access.pem; ssl_certificate_key /etc/pki/tls/private/kibana-access.key; access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.error.log; location / { auth_basic "Restricted"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/conf.d/kibana.htpasswd; proxy_pass http://localhost:5601/;

did you say you have Unifi APs? If so, what firmware?

I saw that too, thanks. I have all Unifi Ap-AC-Pro with 4.0.66.10822 firmware. I have the same experience with all firmware versions. I went back about ten revisions.

I've been having some network performance issues at home since upgrading to 4.0.69.xxx - though I didn't put 2 and 2 together until I was researching fixing my Cloud Key and ran into that thread.

Now that I've experienced Fedora WS & Server updates, why do/does Windows updates suck so bad?

Microsoft has never been good at upgrades. You'd think they would have it figured out by now, but nope.

Upgrades or updates?

Of course windows isn't perfect, but Windows 10 upgrades in my experience has been pretty damned awesome. updates for Windows 10 have been only slightly less so.

Now server updates - that's another matter.

Well we know you enjoy praising Windows 10 so this lip service shouldn't surprise anyone.

@Dashrender said in Lastpass missing from Chrome this morning:

I've had nearly a dozen users contact me this morning telling me that Lastpass was missing from Chrome this morning.

The latest version of Chrome is 78.0.3904.97 and was released Nov 6, 2019, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't an update that took it out.

Anyone else see this? Never any issues.

Is why I use "Edgeium"

I like Chredge better 😛

I wouldn't expect things to ultimately be different between Edge (chromium based) and G-Chrome because the base is the same. MS can't afford to deviate that much from the base, otherwise they end up with issues.

Haha, Chredge wins!

Well, it's different enough that all mine keep working consistently. We don't know what they are changing, or at least I don't. We could assume as such, but look at how different all the Linux distros are even though they share the same base (kernel).

yeah - who knows. Plus MS is always going to be lagging behind Chrome in releases, so what issue might hit Chrome, might not hit Chredge for a week or two.

Chrome != Chromium either

Chrome is based on Chromium.
Credge is based on Chromium.

Kubernetes is 3 things:

a container orchestrator (vsphere for containers) a container config manamement (ansible for container infrastructure) a version control system with rollback capabilities (by default stores the last 10 configs for a deployment)

So I got the Unifi Controller working with the same nginx config as the UNMS. Thanks again @JaredBusch

Now how do I get my AP connected to the controller?

Take a look at this

DHCP option 43 - JB and I were just talking about what option was needed for a non UBNT firewall network to provide that to the APs..
thanks.

Yeah, I guess I could see if for scheduling less critical stuff. It does seem like their plan is to flesh out Automation with more polished tools, but Runbooks seems pretty lacking in features.

I did look I to Automation DSC, but I kind of doubt that's ever going to be a good idea for Linux. Ubuntu 16.04 is supported but not 18.04. And it sounded like on Linux, you can't have the Azure Monitor agent and the PS DSC agent installed on the same system.

@JasGot said in Rough morning with Windows Updates on Servers.:

No common denominator yet, other than they are all windows servers 2008R2 and 2012.

We came in today to more than 10 servers stuck in update loops at 10 different customers. The loops went on for hours until they finally reached Update 5 of 5 and then reverted themselves.

Two of them required interrupting the startup and choosing safe mode, to nudge it along.

I need a nap!

Yeah, this has been lately the issue noted here:
https://www.askwoody.com/2019/windows-server-2012-not-r2-goes-into-reboot-loop-after-installing-net-patch-kb-4533096/

I needed to do this for a couple of customers.

@Pete-S said in Change the install behavior by setting variables when running the script:

You set them before running the script and can use them in scripts but if you restart the shell they are gone.

Besides probably losing whatever was running in your current shell session, is there any benefits of adding exec $SHELL at the end of a script file?

@krisleslie said in Delays on servers from Dell:

@scottalanmiller my two orders got through and will be shipped 3 weeks ahead of time.

@krisleslie - Was that a Dell order or HP?

We ended up ordering refurbs and have already installed them.

The correct way to offsite Veeam requires Veeam installed on a system at the remote site. That remote Veeam instance is what talks to the remote data store.

If you are only doing copy jobs, the remote Veeam instance does not require Veeam licensing.

@Dashrender said in Troubleshooting email flow issue:

Pretty sure I figured it out.

The domain in question had 2 MX records,

O365 gmail

O365 has the higher priority, and there have never been any complaints of missing messages.

I'm assuming this spam made it to google, because I know some spammers specifically use the secondary, etc MX records in hopes of bypassing spam filters. So I'm assuming that's what was happening here.

Now that said - I did see a single Twitter email in the G Suite - so I'm guessing there was glitch at O365 once, and Twitter hit it and tried the secondary...

Often, spammers will send mail to a higher MX record on purpose. There are many reason they do this, Less protected routes to a gullible user is one of them.
