Got the script part done. Just need to create schedule for it.

I assume you could expand this to other systems. But I never checked.

Right now its set up for Fedora and maybe CentOS 8.

Congrats 🐶

@Emad-R said in Researching Mailing List Email Server Options:

So you dont want the SMTP server part, just the sending to many and if a user opt to be removed that will auto reflect ...

Either way. If we handle the SMTP that's fine. If we don't, that's fine.

I assume those KB's come from other packages you have installed?

Yeah. I never intentionally installed any of them.

@JaredBusch said in Acquiring Toll Free Numbers.:

@BraswellJay The hard part is getting a specific number, not the call routing.

@JasGot
You have to request it. There is no automated form for it to my knowledge.

Thanks @JaredBusch that works just like Skyetel, you have to call them. It was easy peasy. Good to know that voip.ms can do it too!

@PhlipElder said in SmarterASP.Net - Ransomware Encrypted:

Those in it for the money are after the low hanging fruit. The easy cool seven figure hit.

Yes, but the lowest hanging fruit has already been picked. Ransomware before 2017 was directed to consumers. Nowadays it's enterprises, government, health care etc that are attacked. What used to be the work of hobbyists have now turned into organized crime for the pros.

There is even RaaS, ransomware as a service. Sophisticated ransomware is developed and then sold as a service to criminals that pay with a percentage of the income. A win-win situation so to speak...

At this point we might as well just throw in the towel eh? 😛

User training. Patching ... and ?

@scottalanmiller

Did you ever solve this problem? Just wondering what you solution was if you did.

@JaredBusch said in ConnectWise Zero Day?:

Bad documentation and stupid users.

ScreenConnect has never needed more than ports 8040 and 8041 opened.

The article is talking about ConnectWise Automate

@travisdh1

yh all works just the import/export thing is not 100% if you have 2 awx instances

I am using fedora 22.

Fedora 31 is current. F22 is insanely ancient.

Thanks

Just found this thread. I love AquaMail. Been using it for years. It's worthy of mention!

Not sure anyone mentioned HostiFi. You can get a free account for a single site.

@Joel said in Folder Redirection - GPO - W7 to W10:

@Dashrender Always giving me sound advice. Thanks Dash. I actually figured this out whilst on site earlier today and just saw your responses.
Adding the computers into the security group we had for FolderRedirection and forcing a GPO update did the trick. Cheers

It's better to place the GPO on the User side not the Computer side. Any membership changes are instant not waiting for the 90 minute refresh threshold for Computer policies.

I use both. Some items are machine dependent some are user.

For user endpoints we only use User based policies. It's a lot easier to manage especially if changes need to be made. Log off, log on. Done.

I've seen issues with search for the last week or so. A few people here have been unable to search public folders or their inboxes on and off. Supposedly resolved. We'll see...

@brandon220 said in how does this work? Modems/IPs/PCI Scans:

@JaredBusch example also is great for home use if you have IoT devices. I have an ERL behind a cable modem and this keeps everything I want separated from my normal LAN.

That is a good way to practice this for business use

@Dashrender said in Netgear Insight Managed Switches:

For $100, yeah I'd just do it. Otherwise you're looking at 2-4 (or so) 1 Gb/s teamed connections....

Exactly. I was thinking something similar also.

I don't need HA but am looking for a little more speed and more simple setup going forward. One cable vs 2-3 (tiny, tiny part of larger plan), consolidating hosts (soon), creating midday backup plan without penalizing daily workers, plus other changes I am contemplating for the future.

I do want to put the available budget to the best use to get the best value, plus a small morsel for the future too.

yeah, really it does come down to more than just this single port for this server -

Do you need two connections in case one fails? Do you need two switches in the backplane in case one fails? How many other SPF+ ports do you need?

We don't know how many ports you need where.

I try to keep things simple but not any simpler as the phrase goes.

We are an SMB with about 30 users and about 25 external clients that use our servers.
I don't have a need for multiple connections to multiple switches. I do have two separate racks though.

One two post rack that holds Patch Panels for PC's and phones, Switches for phones (on a separate network), switch for pc's/printers and main router.

Second rack has all servers (4 total), two NAS's (old and new), SSL-VPN, switch for servers (currently connected via SPF+ to pc/printer switch)

I was thinking, three SPF+ for three vMware Hosts (one is backup server) and one SPF+ over to 2nd switch for PC's and Printers.

I don't NEED SPF+ just like I don't NEED SSD's in the new server (purchasing soon) but if the extra cost is small why not spend it and be done while also keeping things a little more simple.
Extra $150 for 10Gb simplifies two or three 1Gb connection. Extra $200 for two SSD's in RAID 1 vs 6 10K SAS in RAID 10.

We keep our equipment around a long time, especially servers (7 years with Dell's warranty). This, IMHO, helps me get the value out of the extra money spent.

This is an ERL with a bridge.

The site is a home office. The site needed exactly 1 ethernet port (desk phone) and 1 ethernet port (wireless AP).

The user had no desire for extra devices to be plugged in to fail. This is a good use case for a bridged port. Also speed is not an issue on site, the limitations of the bridge are not slowing the user's speed.

That said, this was also put in place before the ER-X existed. Today I would use an ER-X for this. There is not good use case for a bridge on a router now.

@coliver anyone published an eta on that? I don't have to make a move on this for a year

Then why even talk about it now? Tech moves so fast who knows what could change?

That's not true. Infrastructure hardware is years in development.
