@Pete-S It was on linux - ProFTPD

Sounds like a good idea guys. I will do it that way.

@JaredBusch

Good thing you brought this up. I couldn't believe that your recording where ADPCM because in our 3CX we just have PCM recordings.

It turns out that the ADPCM codec for recordings is a completely new feature in 3CX, which arrived in the latest version 15.5

I had to dig around before I could find that setting anywhere. But it's under the recording quota.

IMHO you should have a lot of recordings to enable it in the first place. In just 10GB you have room for 167 hours of non-compressed recordings. But maybe some users have it set up to recording everything on every call and a lot of extensions and small cloud hosted VMs.

I've seen the time slip, usually caused from a aging bios battery. But where time is jumping all over the place. That's a new one.

after I re synced, It slipped an hour ahead.

Check (as in look at) the timezone and the automatic daylight saving check box

Says eastern time .

wont let me change to Central Standard either

What do you mean it won't let you? Is it grayed out? Is there a link to click in the window to enable changes to be made?

When I change it to CST it says " Your current time zone is not recognized, Please select a valid time zone. "

Try PowerShell:

Set-TimeZone -Name "Central Standard Time"

Or whatever zone you're in and is current.

Powershell blows up

Don't know what that means. Screenshot?

even with copy paste it does that
and elevated

What's the result of this:

$PSVersionTable

Oh. That's why. Are you able to install PS v 5.1?

I don't know the CMD.exe way to do it.

Im not sure, Give me a few

I'm sure a reboot would be required somewhere... but if you can, I found this:

I did not do this,
I did however set it up to not be accessible from anyone but our Account which is completely locked and no one has the password, to see if the issue goes away.

I use Steam at home to play video games, it's not a business decision.

What if your job is to play video games?

i wanted an easier way to copy files to multiple folders and have the folder hierarchy duplicated within parent folders, in other words I wanted to see more stuff in more places all at once.

Q-Dir works pretty well and it seems to work accurately with Onedrive which is a bonus, not all of them do, actually Q-Dir is the only one I've found that can display Onedrive statuses or statii for files and folders.

I like to know if any other alternatives have the Onedrive status functionality.

@JaredBusch : Funny that you posted that as I actually had to go LOOK UP NANPA when you had mentioned it above and, at first, wondered what it had to do with the Japanese dating scene.. 🙂

@trustserve said in Turn your Twilio account into a full PBX:

bigbear... i am interested in this. i would love to use just twilio and not have to fiddle with another pbx. open to beta testing or releasing your set up to someone else?

so can my people connect via webrtc? or is this a sip phone only thing?

I have been getting messages about this over the past month out of the blue for some reason.

So out of the box you can register endpoints to Twilio now and use WebRTC

https://www.twilio.com/voice/sip-registration

https://www.twilio.com/webrtc

My idea was to use the serverless code model to create the missing features of a PBX, but I had to slim down a light weight softswitch from other projects to handle presence and to translate DSS/Phone commands to something that could call a Twiml Bin or Twilio API.

The quality and SIP registration leans on Twilio while some things that Twilio doesnt offer leans on a 3rd party app engine instance.

I have thought about developing this further, but it seems trivial for Twilio to add these features themselves. I havent check in on Twilio updates since last year but I thought Studio would obviate the need for some of the things I was doing. I feel like as soon as I made something distributed everyone would find a way to break it or Twilio would release those features.

If you dont need presence or extension transfers from a hard phone Twilio does everything you want out of the box. Complex IVR and transfers down to your SIP phone.

This is something I am interested in. I'm coming from FreePBX and Elastix and really just need some core features to start off like the ones you described and custom build out from there. My goal same as yours eliminate need for a PBX and do everything through Twillio.

I already have SIP registration working on Twilio and calls between endponts. Things that I need are BLF to work which Twillio doesn't support out of the box and I would like transfer, music on hold and voicemail to work. This would be a good start and custom build other things. Is this a project still under development? I would be interested in trying on would host on my own VPS or GCP for testing. Any information would be of help as I'm looking to do something similar regardless. Thanks

Also have you implemented or tested twilio Sim cards? I have active Sims and would like to plug in as an endpoint if it's possible.

You want a PBX without a PBX.

@tonyshowoff said in LAMP on the cheap, or how to optimize ?:

Installing crappy cPanel is like buying a sports car and putting a boot on the wheel. There's literally no good reason what so ever to have it, it's slow as hell and eats resources like crazy. Just learn a few commands and you'll be fine.

Don't get yourself stuck with PHP 5.x, it's a dead end, fix your code now and/or do it right from the start and use PHP 7.

Apache with mod_php is a hell of a lot faster than PHP-FPM, because it's executed as a part of your running httpd thread pool rather than executing PHP literally every single page request. Nginx is faster than Apache except when it comes to PHP then hands down always use Apache with mod_php. If you turn on PHP 7's opcache you'll do even better.

In case you consider it and try to go with nginx, since that's what the cool kids try to push on people, OPcache won't make up for PHP-FPM having to literally start a process every single page request, every, single, page request. Nginx is a great reverse proxy though.

It also depends on what you're doing overall, memcached is great I've used it on a huge scale but what are you caching? What database are you looking at using, that'd really be the only reason to have an object cache like memcached at all.

Interesting, I will see how it performs without PHP FPM.

Weird.. I didn't have to do anything with SELinux to get it working:

https://timothygruber.com/linux/saltstack-installation-configuration/#Installing_the_Salt-Master

Too bad it is KVM only right now. Not that KVM is bad, it's just early. The have LXC coming "soon" and that will be really awesome. I want VDI on LXC so that we can do it faster and on top of Scale HC3.

Man that vendor really hates you.

I was going to say the same thing.

The next thing out of this vendor will be that they only support Windows NT . .

@NerdyDad said in Yealink DECT dongle for T41S and T42S:

Does the cordless and the deskphone both share the same extension? If so, this would be great for my wandering receptionist.

These are independent units so no. But you can put the same ext on them if the PBX supports it.

So with FreePBX and PJSIP based extensions you can have multiple devices registered all to the same ext.

Claiming this is UEFI issue is false. This maybe an HP + UEFI issue, but it is not a UEFI issue.

We use Clonezilla at one client for applying the desktop images and we run 100% UEFI.
Those systems are all Dell though. We do not do any cloning at any of our clients that have HP systems.

You could also opt to purchase a few $25 poe injectors for the few phones that are required to have power all of the time and feed that from your UPS.

The cost difference for Poe switch vs non is 400$.... over 48 phones that’s less tha $10 ea

Let’s move on from POE

But that's way more than wall warts typically. And the comparison is not against a normal switch, but against no switch. You don't need any switching at all beyond what you already have unless you go PoE, right?

That is not right. I'm 50% or more laptops. So I would need at least another 30 ports, but probably more like 40 ports to include phones in random locations.

Where you don't have ports today?

It's not that you are laptops. I think you are trying to imply that your laptops are wireless?

I may or may not have a wire there - but I definitely don't have a switch port connected to those wires. I replaced switches a while ago and didn't buy more than I needed for the APs, Printers, and Desktops.

yes the laptops are 100% wireless.

I see. Wherever we have a large amount of laptops, we wire them up for performance and stability.

My users have shown that when they have to manage plugs on a daily basis, they damage them regularly. We're lucky we don't have more issues with power connectors.

So eliminate the responsibility of having to plug things in.

Get a softphone and have people start using that wholesale.

huh? not sure where this came from?

today users move from station to station, only plugging in their power brick to power their laptops. They just use the phone at the desk they are sitting at that time.

I was responding to this comment. It didn't start from me, or you. Both of us responded to Dustin's topic.

@LilAng doesn't really have a computer at home, either!

e systems was a consumer version of Windows 10 which the previous tech installed - no idea where he got it.

Probably came pre-installed on the Dell Computer and not imaged.

Actually it had Windows 7 installed on it but then the co-worker put his version of Windows 10 that I think he got from college on it, and a few other systems. So idk.

Windows 10 will activate on a Windows 7 license. So should be all set from that perspective.

I don't think so.. and it was a fresh install, or at least I know he used the Windows 10 key that he had been provided. That key was also used on about 5 other systems at the time.

You can work around it, but should accept the Win 7 key, too.

I use the actual CloudFlare certs that they give you also. Not just clicking the cloud. I use GitLab pages to host my blog and LetsEncrypt renewal is still manual there. So I got a free cert from CloudFlare which is good for 15 years and used that instead.

Are you talking about the Universal SSL (Shared) or the Origin Certficates?

Origin.

You might be able to use a BPM software to accomplish this. Sounds like you just want a runbook.
