Am I the only one that still missed text mode installers? Probably.

I do find it funny, that they all have gui installers when everything is cli, out of the box.

Deepin is a desktop only, never meant to be a server or command line, though.

It sucks that you cant create rules by group yet. The devs have submitted a feature request for it on my behalf so hopefully soon 🙂

@JaredBusch said in ScreenConnect agent on Fedora fails rpm install:

rpm -U ConnectWiseControl.ClientSetup.rpm

ConnectWise Control version 19.0.23234.7027 resolved the failure to update. but they neglected to remove the old screenconnect version as the new install is named connectwisecontrol

If the client isn't connecting at N or AC, you won't get higher speeds. If the client hardware is capable, you can try modifying the adapter properties and forcing the preferred band.

Just an FYI - Whenever I see weird issues with Wifi affecting a single client, I usually find that the client is a Windows device that has been using sleep mode. Sleep causes speed issues and other weird issues like connecting not being able to connect to a VPN but no issues connecting to the internet.

That makes a little more sense. They've negotiated a deal with Microsoft from the sounds of it.

No, way, way more likely they just figured out how hard it is to get caught.

I totally doubt anything like that is going on here. I have been told our annual budget for licensing which we pay is in the region of £600,000. Either way, not my problem 🙂

Wow. But, sounds like only that high because they don't know what they are using, lol. The only way to get licensing truly down is to know what you use. Someone is both ignoring what is used, but also encouraging unlimited use. Both things set MS up to just keep making it more and more expensive. It's a trick, sounds easy, but makes one lazy licensing person encourage not keeping licensing lean - basically giving Microsoft the power to charge anything that they want down the road.

Yeah, not your problem, but definitely a symptom of management issues and a lack of clear thinking. If they are truly paying their bills, my guess is a licensing "specialist" who has created their own job and knows if MS isn't used heavily, their job would go away, so is doing stuff to encourage you to lock in MS so that that specialist can't be eliminated. Basically creating their own job.

Yeah, I don't disagree with anything you said. It's just not my issue. I still get to buy shiny new toys 🙂

No it hasn't.

It has, we started getting the error several days ago.

DTMF

Is that on the ext in advanced? It's set to RFC4733

Both the Phone and Asterisk have settings for this. They need to match.

They do, we checked that last night.

@DustinB3403 said in How to configure SSH Keys for Nessus:

Isn't this step redundant?

sudo mkdir /home/scan_user/.ssh sudo chown -R scan_user:scan_user /home/scan_user

As ssh-keygen will create these directories and set the ownership?

It certainly does on Fedora.

@Romo said in Deploy Active Directory via PowerShell:

Great Job @EddieJennings !!, Really liked the flow and tempo of the video 😃

Thanks 😄

Is this an onboard controller or an external? A typical external RAID controller (and some internal) have a BIOS that loads on POST which may show you whether it's active or not.
Otherwise, most BIOS post messages display the IRQ info of onboard components during boot so you should technically see a SATA/SAS/RAID controller there.

I'd suspect the drive or corrupt boot loader first.

What OS is this?

@WLS-ITGuy said in FreePBX Asterisk crash:

Since Tuesday evening our phones intermittently have been showing 'No Service'. I did some searching and couldn't find anything. Decided I might roll out Asterisk 15 and found this:

You want 16, not 15, if you are updating. 15 is one version old and not LTS. 16 is both current and LTS, so definitely the way to go.

Asterisk 16 removes some long depreciated commands that break third party tools like FOP2.

RSA key working on Nessus, too. Thanks @DustinB3403 for calming me down

You're welcome.

A good workflow would be using Packer to build your immutable images with Ansible. That way you don't need to log into the image, just make a new image with your changes using the same process, and then deploy those images with Terraform.

Like this.

@Pete-S said in Getting ready to spec new desktops:

The A chips are probably AMD's A-series desktop chips.
https://www.amd.com/en/processors/athlon-and-a-series

Those are what we use when we say that we use AMD chips. AMD A9 and A10. They are perfect for business desktops that aren't like CAD stations or whatever. I use the A10 myself. I'd really like to move up to the new A12. Ryzen is more for video game or high performance workstation usage, not standard office work. The A series are, IMHO, ideal for the average office worker (which includes IT people.)

Just a reminder that on new threads of this nature, no links allowed to any services or products. This is a non-promotional thread. None have been posted, it's just a reminder. Thanks!

@Vlinderbeest said in Infrastructure Needed for Hypervisor Cluster:

@scottalanmiller said in Infrastructure Needed for Hypervisor Cluster:

Clustering is done when the cost of clustering is low versus the risk of not clustering.

I would change that slightly to Clustering is done when the cost of clustering is low versus the cost of not clustering. A risk is always a cost, but some costs are not risks. For example taking down a hypervisor for maintenance vs moving guests to another node and taking down a free node for maintenance.

Sure, using risk cost vs investment cost as cost v cost is a perfect valid way to look at it. I use that all the time in the opposite way.

You can say that risk is a cost. Or conversely, you can look at the clustering cost up front as essentially a "financial event" similar to an outage.

This is actually a decent explanation of what I am trying to do:

That original one, while technically correct, seems purposely made more difficult to me.

Ugh, that 🌶 thread, don't name your custom script the same thing as the program being run, FFS.

This is where I have to ask, what exactly are you trying to accomplish? Just grab system information with dmidecode, or something different?

https://www.tenable.com/blog/configuring-least-privilege-ssh-scans-with-nessus

All right, not the greatest tutorial/how-to ever. You should only need a single user to accomplish this, so the whole group and alias conversation is pointless.

Just follow the rest of that tutorial, adding only the needed programs to the sudoers file.
