WTF is up with the use of the word "Sources"

de208aab-59a1-46dc-8b3f-718501dba163-image.png

VatesFr does this as well with Xen Orchestra.

It's dumb and makes no sense to an English speaker, as it's clearly wrong.

Just keep the content on the top, so if someone that has an issue like this, they can find an answer as well.

@JaredBusch said in FreePBX / Yealink t42s / call park configuration best practice ...:

The best use of parking is simply blind transfer via DSS key directly to a specific slot.

No one wants to waste time and a button with a park key that you then need to wait for an announcement to know where the call went.

That makes much more sense. I think I put the blinders on and focused too much on replicating the old system without thinking if there was a better way.

While I found where OSX stores the user printer preferences, but copying a "working version of preferences" to the user workstation and directory doesn't set the preferences.

Still investigating. May require a restart when doing this remotely. . .

Full system restart or just the cups service?

Just did a full system restart and no change. While the plist file is there, and the user has owner access to it, the changes don't appear to take effect.

Not sure why.

any errors in the DNS server's logs?

I ran into a language issue the other day when writing a PowerShell script that uses net localgroup and thought it could be useful to others:

Depending on the language your Windows device is set to, the local Administrators group will be different, so the typical net localgroup administrators domain\user /add command will fail.

Implementing the following will grab the actual name of the group by it's SID first, then use that result.
Note that this is written to work in PowerShell, not CMD.exe.

# Gets the name of the local Administrators group in appropriate language $localAdminGroupName = (Get-WmiObject win32_group -filter "LocalAccount = $TRUE And SID = 'S-1-5-32-544'" | Select-Object -Expand name) Write-Output "Local Administrators group detected as: [$localAdminGroupName]" # Sets the users as a local admin using appropriate local Administrators group name net localgroup $localAdminGroupName domain\user /add # Gets local Administrators group members net localgroup $localAdminGroupName

@wrx7m said in Leveraging Veeam Cloud Tier - Backups To Wasabi:

I upload Veeam backups to Wasabi (and before that, S3) outside of Veeam. I pull down the backups and import them back into Veeam, via the import feature.

I would like to see how well it works when everything is natively done in Veeam. If that is even possible.

How do you upload your backups to Wasabi? Are you using a 3rd party tool?

Yeah. I use a file compare tool called, BeyondCompare that runs on a windows task schedule.

@scottalanmiller these discussions echo my thoughts exactly. I'm only (hesitantly) learning Docker now, but it feels like it's not a long term answer(I'm possibly too late to the party?), as other approaches are increasing in mind-share.

@IRJ said in Massive speed increase when switching WordPress from apache to nginx:

I really wanted to do everything server side and be as lean as possible. I wanted zero plugins related to performance on my WP site.

Lean WP, that's an oxymoron if anything 🙂

I've heard before that some sites are slower with cloudflare CDN compared to going straight to the site. Are you using http/2 as well?

Most likely in this case, the switch to nginx from apache itself didn't make anything noticeably faster but the caching and compression did.

@WrCombs I don't know if I want to laugh or cry.

I've done both alternatively all day.

Supreme Court upheld it.

@NDC said in Domain Controller DNS settings order - best practice?:

IIRC the difference is just a boot time thing. It can be slightly slower to bring the DC back online if it looks at itself for info and the DNS service isn't up yet. So if you point the first DNS entry to another machine you theoretically save a few seconds on reboot.

In theory, not something that you need if the other DNS is there 🙂

@scottalanmiller How are you liking Salt Stack?

Upgraded from F29 to 30, also switched to Deepin.
So far, I'm liking the Deepin desktop.

@Obsolesce said in Domain Trust Group Permissions:

I use Domain Local groups for access control to local resources. You can have other group types as members, as well as groups from other trusted domains.

Right, but you can't then add that Domain Local group that has members from the trusted domain to a local group on the server.

Right, you wouldn't want to.

@manxam said in USG to EdgeRouter VPN:

Interesting. The last time that I looked at the GUI (as we typically use CLI for VPN), it didn't give the option of DH group like so :

Wonder in what version this changed?

It has had it for as long as I recall. At least 1.5.

The CLI has had it 100% of the time since release at version 1.2.0

Circling back to GPP. Thanks to @FiyaFly , who was able to help me out with the syntax for the fields. Do not use quotes in the target or start in paths.
Target Path:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

Arguments:

--incognito --proxy-server=squid1.domain.com:3128 --user-data-dir="%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Squid1\User Data"

Start in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\

I also used the create option and desktop (standard, not all users desktop).

@Pete-S said in ZeroTier vs VPN:

@Kelly said in ZeroTier vs VPN:

In the strictest sense ZT is a VPN. It is just a one to one IaaS that is routed through the cloud on ZT's systems instead of your edge. You can achieve the same effective security through rules on most VPN servers. ZT just makes it simpler, and reduces your ongoing effort assuming that 1 to 1 or 1 to few is your primary access model.

I haven't used it but why does ZT makes it easier? You have to install it on every machine you want access to, right? And I assume you have to setup some kind of routing on a computer if you want access to something on the network where you can't install ZT, like an appliance or something like an ilo interface.

With an OpenVPN (SSL VPN) connection through the firewall you have a routable VPN and no NAT problems. You can put whatever access to whatever resources you want without installing anything anywhere. And you have everything in one place.

I though ZT was a peer to peer network. So it would make most sense when there are no LAN or central resources and everything is spread out. But that not the network layout in this case.

You do have to install it on every machine. It is easier in the sense that to achieve the same level of lockdown paired with user specific access you would need to do a fair bit of work on your edge and keep it maintained. Deploying software to clients should be pretty straightforward if you're using quality tools: https://chocolatey.org/packages/zerotier-one.
