@pete-s said in Nvidia Tesla K40 for lab?:

I know nothing of machine learning or GPU processing in general. But I'd like to learn.

To get started I assume you need a GPU card of some kind and GPUs like Nvidia Tesla K40 are showing up refurbished for reasonable prices. Would that card be sufficient to get started or is it too old?

Also when looking at desktop virtualization would the Tesla K40 also be something you could use for this? Or does that require something else? I've seen Grid K1 & K2 in some applications but I don't know the difference between those cards and something like the K40.

Those special purpose cards are really only for after you have a very specific need. Machine learning and GPU compute can be done on just about any graphics card of reasonable age. The add in cards make more sense for servers where the standard GPU is just enough to run a display, and nothing more.

@dafyre said in Ethernet link going down and then up after 3 seconds.:

log in to the switch.... and then

sho log -r

That will show you the most recent entries in the log. Look for anything related to STP.

I think it is:

log -r -w

Without the 'show'. The -w switch helps filtering out less relevant stuff.

So I "should" be able to use the "all" setting and have this work there as well, yet it doesn't seem to.

When in my massive environment (80K+ servers)

80k+ servers? That has to be something in size like Paypal or LinkedIn.

Way bigger than those. Those would not come close.

This client uses the commercial EPM to manage the phones and this is what it created.

@jaredbusch said in Asterisk 13 CRITICAL ERROR! Required Service CHAN_SIP is disabled! This device is unusable!:

does chan_sip.so exist in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/?

My guess is, no. But once we determined that there was no simple restoration and all evidence of chap_sip was gone from the system, they just rolled back to a snapshot from before the outage and all is well. So we might never know.

@pete-s said in Server rebooting - ASP.Net MVR 2:

%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister

yes Windows server. I will try deactivating the installer. I presume thats via command prompt i should run

%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister
%windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister

Only ubuntu/debian/centos. No nesting.

Nope the one I have is a Netgear A6100. Does not support Fedora per their website.

No idea if Fedora has a driver anyway..
Edit: Nope

@obsolesce said in Set static ip for Hyper-V Server 2016 virtual ethernet adapter.:

There are a lot of options rather than spending weeks figuring out such a dumb issue.

Having to bring in a local tech or get a swing machine are actually much more intensive than looking at it remotely for a while. But seems doubtful that it will take weeks. Only has had a few minutes of being looked at, and only today.

Oh, didn't realize it was like that. No local IT, no other available infrastructure or anything kind of limits things a lot.

Yeah, a LOT. If we were local and it was one of two (or more) machines, yeah, we'd happily reinstall. As it is, we are scared of the backup device failing. Which isn't terrible as it is ONLY a backup device. But taking the server offline... we are pretty dependent on it.

@bigbear said in FreePBX iOS/Android Mobile App in public beta now:

Just wanted to share that you can download the mobile iOS/Android beta for FreePBX's Zulu now if you are a user.

This went online Wednesday August 28th
https://wiki.freepbx.org/display/ZU/Zulu+Mobile+Installation

You can get 2 free licenses for your installation for free. Just getting ready to provision my phone to check it out.

The latest desktop version of Zulu has worked pretty well. There is a Slack/Teams feature that isnt bad, but since you cant invite outsiders to it its probably not going to gain much traction. The whole interface is pretty nice though.

I hope they change the licensing model from the $199 per 20 users per year to something per actual user.

That is only $10/user/year. That is not all the bad.

What price point you after?

Also, I was on their forum today and did not see a notice for this!

The Zulu app on Fedora works okay-ish.

I would like it to be just $10/user/year

Currently if you have 9 users you have to buy 20 and if you have 22 users you have to buy 40. At least that’s the only option in the portal. Increments of 20 and I think 50

Ah ok because of the price blocks. Yes, I agree there.

I believe GDM is running under Wayland when using Fedora Gnome. Might have better success using Fedora XFCE for a jump box.

We didn't have good results with that either, problems with menus in browsers.

@phlipelder said in Is Spamhaus the DDoS Arm of Microsoft:

@scottalanmiller BTDT

Back in the day the general sentiment was that RBL "services" were no more than extortion rackets. IMNSHO, that has not changed much.

With the advent of SPF, DMARC, and DKIM their relevance will become a lot smaller which is a happy.

SPF has been around forever, but a lot of mail domains still do not have it setup.
DMARC has barely any traction by comparison.
DKIM is not even a thing that does anything. DKIM only tells the receiving server what to do with a message that fails SPF or DMARC, instead of the receiving server deciding for itself.

@scottalanmiller said in O365 and backups:

It's like going into a car dealership and claiming you need a racecar, but when asked why or how fast it needs to go and you have no idea, that tends to suggest you have less need of one than even normal drivers, let alone actual race car drivers.

/me goes back and deletes all those pictures of driving to and from St Louis that include his speed..

I tried it today...

It tries to do something, but crashes without error.

Looks nice but their sales tactics look questionable. A lot of people here will be deterred by the fact that there isn't a price on the website.
