@NerdyDad is right. This is an IT Risk Management issue. You need to figure out your Annual Loss Expectancy (ALE).

Returning to thread -

How is cost and benefit not important to this thread? Financially it's the only thing that makes sense

@lakshmana said in Browser Issue:

@jackcpickup You are also facing the same issue?

Nono, I'm saying to Scott that mine is working as you are expecting it to.

All I sometimes have to do is remove the .com/.co.uk etc. that FF recommends some times with delete, then search for what I'm after.

You should set traffic shaping on wireless the same as you would on your LAN.

Doesn't work the same. It's a bus, not a switch.

@brandon220 said in Internal-only "mail" solution:

The logic (according to the bosses) for an email-type system is to retain messages and have the normal features. The old system forced you to check the messages as soon as you logged in to the software. Not sure how they expect to get everyone to check a new system daily and actually use it.

How is this different than IM systems? Other than saying it is like email, since it's not using SMTP, it's not like email. From the description, it doesn't sound like email fits the desired bill more or less than other solutions.

Yes. Grubs editor is inside Linux.

@aaronstuder said in Snipe-IT Active Directory Setup:

@dustinb3403 the documentation is good, but it doesn't seem to be connecting....

What are the settings that you have?

On ldap page, select first 3 options; ldap enabled ad and pass sync

Ad domain your ad fqdn

Ldap would be ldap://servername.fqdn

Ldap bind username domain\uername

Bind password the ad user password

Base bind dn is the ou=xx,dc=xx,dc=xx format

Ldap filter: &(cn=*)
Username field : samaccountname
Lastname: sn
Ldap firstname: givenname
Ldap auth query: samaccountname
Ldap email: mail

Try this!

Do you mean it powers off? Or disappears?

disappears

@ambarishrh @scottalanmiller can do it for you 🙂

Thanx to all .... i will analysis the VMware infra to reduce the vCPU on VMs.

I just had this issue with 2 users. Both were using the Grandstream Wave app softphone. Then they tried to register using the Bria app. Worked instantly. Strange behavior

Welp, as near as I can tell my cluster of a script does exactly what I'm looking for. I've updated the Pastebin link for those who are curious (https://pastebin.com/0JvUrzQU).

It will analyze existing group memberships and remove users if they do not meet all of the following requirements:

The account no longer matches the specified $fileString The account is disabled The account does not reside within the $searchBase

Next, it will pull all accounts from the system, excludes existing members, and adds the remaining users to the group if they meet all of the following requirements:

The account is enabled The account matches the specified $fileString The account resides within the $searchBase The sAMAccountName does not contain a 1 (something we use internally) The Display Name does not contain the string 'test' (we do not have any users who have 'test' in their name yet :-D)

After the above is done, it writes the changes to a log file (which is overwritten each time the script runs) and if emails it off to a specified email address.

MM strange issue, I have had this issue with Buffalo and Synology but haven't found the answer.

The hw and sw engineers here use Jira for project and issue tracking, completion.

@jmoore said in Spiceworks - Maintenance records:

@wls-itguy Lots of different ways to do this. The last thing I saw was using Google forms to do it. It would work nice.

I'd like to do it in Spiceworks as that is our ticketing system. It would be nice to input what was updated via text box or something like that and have it attached to the user and/or pc the maintenance was done for/on.

@stacksofplates said in Installable Windows App like Codeanywhere?:

Again, just so there isn’t any misinformation, you don’t need to set anything up. The hosted Gitlab is free for private repos.

Oh, I didn't know that!

One more little tidbit of information. I can replicate the spike by viewing the Connectivity > Firewall page(s).

When I setup my old server room I just hooked a cheep webcam via USB to a old Windows Client computer I had laying around. I then installed some cheap software (Webcam Monitor I think) that would take a picture when ever someone walked in front of it, save it to a file share, then email me the pic as an attachment. I then pointed the camera at the door at face height, turned the lights off, and left it. I could RDP to the box to check in, and I had a email and photo log with time stamps of everyone that walked in.

@bigbear said in E-mail and file storage services for Non-Profit entities:

If I was providing IT I would use 0365, but Zoho is great. Just hate the adds in the free email. I am working with their invoicing system and integration with stripe.com right now though.

Personally, I still like G Suite if I was actually using IT in a small or large group. Hangouts is great, drive works great. Gmail is great. And the apps work great on my... iPhone. lol.

Therrrrrre GRRRRREAT! 😛

@dustinb3403 said in dhclient preventing network.service from starting:

Disabled network manager and the issue appears to be resolved. @Romo thanks for the help.

After all these years, it's still a pain in the neck.

@matteo-nunziati said in windows server updates: critical/cumulative/security:

ok,

I'm still confused about the terminology. Please, can you confirm and/or fix my interpretation?

critical: not a security fix, but something seriously broken is fixed here. security: a security fix, something seriously broken is fixed here and a security hole is closed. cumulative: just use this if you have missed a lot of stuff and you have a long queue updates otherwise. Download this bulk huge fatty thing and align with upstream. all other types... really too many types here, do they really worth?

Now the second question.

Having an hyperv server 2016 should I need to install critical fixes? I mean: if I do not notice any misfunction should I patch? to me it is right to patch as you never know when a critical bug will hit your usage.

Also, as a general rule I patch manually and I always require recommended updates only. Then I choose what to install.

any opinion/correction/suggestion?!

thank you.

I do at least Critical, security, and definition updates to all servers, hypervisors included.
For Windows10 desktops, I do everything.

But I do it all through WSUS.
