@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.

@Romo said in EdgeRouter L2TP VPN network issue.:

We have a client with an Edge Router Lite FW version 2.0.8 which is having issues with the L2TP VPN. Clients can properly connect to the VPN and get an IP but after the first few seconds of being connected access to the file servers start getting timeouts, web browsing basically either doesn't work or slows so much it's really not usable. A router reboot fixes whatever is causing the issue for some days, but I would really like to figure out how to resolve this without doing a reboot.

I have restarted the vpn services but that doesn't seem to fix the issue.

I can't seem to find anything outside of the ordinary in the logs that would help. Only thing weird is this when the vpn is having the issues ksoftirqd/0 and 1 start using most of the CPU:

Any ideas?
@scottalanmiller

How long are these users keeping sessions open?

If a reboot fixes, it is likely an issue with the router packages.

I so rarely use my L2TP connection to routers anymore, I have no experience with this issue.

This is how you change the password.

@Pete-S said in deploy iPads - locked down - suggestions?:

Signage displays use vesa mounts so it's easy to find different mounting options. Could have something that could be angled.

I would also consider disinfection when something is used in healthcare by the public.

FTFY

While I would generally agree with that, it feels as if I'm just missing 1 step to this process.

@coliver said in Switch for harsh environment ...:

Ubiquiti has the Toughswitch Carrier as well. It's older tech not sure if they still actively sell it.

https://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-TS-16-CARRIER-ToughSwitch-Rackmount-Controllers/dp/B00CXU9ZOC

They still sell it but they get very hot. However they are fan-less so that might be good.

We usually do a Bastion Server when we need to connect to other servers that are only allowed from one IP address, or we just VPN and then connect to the server.

Yep choosing an https mirror seems to be working.

@Dashrender said in Windows 10 1809+ Clipboard history:

OK, I suppose I can follow that - but you really think that CopyX is somehow more secure than Clipboard history? Don't they both use the clipboard? that thing is pretty much open to anyone, so I don't see how it would be any more or less secure - I would say they are likely both the same level of secure....

Even though they both read the clipboard whenever it changes, ClipX doesn't store the history the same way Windows Clipboard History does. Since Microsoft is a larger target, I still think they will be compromised before ClipX. 😉

what do you mean they don't store it the same way? you know that for sure?

Just had a very large client reach out and ask for LibreOffice again after moving to MS Office because they found Excel too difficult to get data in correctly. So they are going to LibreOffice for exactly the reason that everyone claims that "everyone" chooses MS Office... LO is easier to use and has better compatibility 🙂

They own licenses for both, so purchase cost is not a factor. They've used MS Office more time in the last three years. Given less time with LibreOffice and zero "price" incentive, they've chosen it as the superior product for them - with zero prompting from IT. Out of the blue the managers chose it as the better product.
