so what we did was 3 step process - put the extension number on first alternative, another on second alternative, edit the call re-routing for the said extension number pointing to the line of 1st and 2nd alternative. we use the current timer but instead of going to VM it goes to the alternatives.

@NerdyDad said in SaltStack - Viewing output:

Disclaimer: I've never implemented or used SaltStack at all.

But what I know of it, I would treat it similar to Group Policy. Not really meant to give information back. Just a state and configuration management system.

Agreed. I'm not looking to use it for advanced monitoring, only basic disk usage, etc.

@scottalanmiller Yeah I check daily for updates to make sure my things are up to par and was surprised when I saw such a huge list of updates waiting.

@gjacobse said in Fedora: Support for Hauppauge?:

Well - unless it's in there some where,.. the Official support page for Hauppauge states that they Support Ubuntu - ... So, It would seemingly be that here is another device I am unable to run under Fedora...

Or - Is that true?

@scottalanmiller - Is there options for running the WinTV-HVR 950q USB TV Stick in Fedora - or am I looking at either;

dual booting going Ubuntu only going back to Windows -

Whats wrong with Ubuntu, I rarely see the difference nowadays between Ubuntu and Fedora, both are great. And trust me there are no apps in Fedora that are not In Ubuntu actually it is the opposite

Just upgraded to 6.9 and had the same error. Fedora 29 base.

Reran the upgrade with the export and it worked without error.

rolled back and reran it or just ran the upgrader over the last not so great upgrade?

Just ran over it. Same as I did the prior time also.

I’ve only witnessed that with Firefox on Gnome3 Wayland and xorg.

@Francesco-Provino said in Cat5/6 100 meters:

@scottalanmiller no. Single strand single mode can carry 40+Gbps today.

I think you are misunderstanding the meaning of speed as we were discussing. We are talking about the speed of the signal going down the line, not the bandwidth. People often call bandwidth speed, but it is not.

Also, copper can do 40GB/s plus today, too. The bandwidth is determined by the protocol, the speed is determined by the media.

@bbigford I'll second that

Home PBX

I was definitely considering setting up a home PBX but I don't know if I want to subscribe to any actual phone numbers

You can learn a lot without doing that. Although voip.ms makes it SO cheap.

And you can make calls without buying a phone number at all. Just pay per use.

What option is that? I don't recall seeing that (granted this was some time ago)

VoIP.ms has never required purchasing a number to have an account and setup a trunk.

You simply have no way to receive calls from the PSTN.

Ah.

We use ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect [SC]).

Honestly, I would be hard pressed to give any other option a second look. BUT, it didn't start out that way. In the product's infancy, and early in our learning curve, we only used its basic functions (which every other products offers too). But as we mastered it; and it became a more complex and flexible product, we have turned it into a be-all/end-all for RMM. The things we can do through SC would amaze you. Granted most of it is OS related, so it's not something SC magically provides, but the fact you can to it without ever seeing or connecting to the gui at the other end make it extremely valuable.

Are you using hosted or on-premises?

On premises. About 50 feet from me 🙂 Running on an Intel NUC 🙂

Windows or Linux? Windows runs better with lots of resources, Linux runs way better for us in cloud on a "per dollar" basis.

Windows. Runs great. About 3500 Clients in Access Mode.

@Obsolesce - Yeah, thanks.

MS did not get onto the OpenSSH train until 2015.

@scottalanmiller said in Orchestrate and control many web sites:

@Emad-R Exactly, that's more than running your own. $2.95 PER WEBSITE is quite expensive. Run your own and you can do it for $.35 per site!

No you cannot. Not for a single site or even a dozen.

$5 vultr instance / 12 sites comes in at $0.42

That doesn't count the labor to maintain, patch, make resiliant (excluding content related development, etc).
While certainly not expensive, it is also certainly not $0.35.

Ah, but don't forget, when we did a labour study we found that dealing with your own install had lower labour than when dealing with a shared instance because you don't get raw access. So we lowered labour.

So my numbers were obviously without labour, but so were the shared numbers. If you include labour both go up, but the shared goes up more from what we found in testing.

Wouldn't it best to use the SSD for things like caching, page file?

Neither the host nor the guests should be paging. If they are, then there is a problem with the way things are set up host wise or in-guest resources wise.

But there should be a file for emergencies.

Ok this is something I don't understand then Windows still has a default paging file... are you saying that in typical use it's rarely actually touched? When I've looked at task manager I frequently see that the system is writing to the page file but the RAM itself is only half used or so..

You should also rarely use Windows 😉

@wirestyle22 said in Nextcloud Update 14.04 Security Warning:

Strict-Transport-Security

If you are using Nginx Reverse Proxy, adding add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=63072000; includeSubdomains; preload"; in your server block should remove that warning.

But I don't see that working very well for large files - say AutoCAD or even some graphics files.

AutoDesk and Dessault both have toolkits to get around SMB limitations. I think most CAD vendors do actually.

Yes, CAD is something that basically always does LANless on its own. It has special needs and normally handles them. You don't use NextCloud or anything like it, nor do you use SMB or anything like that.

only for a premium, but they are rarely if ever rolled into the base product, at least not fully featured

Technically, all fire sharing is a sort of premium somewhere.

Honestly, this is all kinda silly.
You are "creating" a problem that simply doesn't exist!!

Cockpit terminal tab, Copy & paste in a Windows 10 vm works.
I just tried it again in v1809 (OS Build 17763.107)

No, he is not. Also, no, it does not "just work" as you say. If it did, the post would never have been made.

I consistently have random issues using copy and paste into a web interface terminal. Both Cockpit and UNMS. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

I do it little enough, that i never care to toubleshoot it.

I'll second this - The troubles in pasting into a web based console are real - and sometimes seemingly random.

I am willing to blame Windows on this problem - but the problem is real.
