@wirestyle22 You can still do the following as well:

Maybe also move to DFRS instead of FRS, you would only use FRS if it is Server 2003 as part of one of your DCs

Possibly in the future but I have so many other things to focus on

@scottalanmiller said in Strange Vultr VM Note:

That's certainly a weird choice to have made 🙂

Very weird. The first time I saw that message, I first thought I was still running 12.04 and needed to upgrade.

I'm seeing the same message on any Ubuntu based system right now.

@curious_mindz said in While on the topic of ransomware...:

I didnt see anyone talk about preventing Crypto virus from encrypting files. We used AppLocker and it resolved the issue for us, if you are not using an enterprise OS then you can use Software Restriction Plicies.

This discussion is not on preventing cypto. this part of the discussion was on dealing with the backups in a way that they cannot become tainted.

@dbeato But again this is the official article

The Win10 VM I'm running on KVM in Fedora shows up in WSUS like this:

That one update needed is the 1703 upgrade. I didn't push that yet.

All seems well so far!

@Tim_G and I were on a thread in the last hour of some guy who has now decided that his "mission critical no downtime" servers need to start getting patched.

I was in the process of writing an analogy comparing that to patching holes in a submarine... but it started to get so cheesy I deleted it LOL.

Yeah... SWISS cheesy.

and there was de Brie everywhere

Knowing that the business was not taking their systems seriously might be the most important thing that he gleaned from this.

While I see what you're saying... I just don't buy it. the chances that a person would read your post and turn around and return to management and instead of being in a panic over patching say - hey, this is your bloody fault.. now what are you going to do about making sure this doesn't happen again? the answer is only SAM would do that, not another person I know personally.

You base the value on what you see as people likely doing, and there is rational to that. I'm basing it off what they are empowered to do. I like to give more options, faster. How they choose to leverage that is then up to them, but the info that they need is in their hands.

@DustinB3403 looks interesting, but not something I have had to look into before.

Use it in safe mode. You don't need to know the password. I've used it countless of times, and I never messed up any of the machines.

Thanks for that. The Support Tech I spoke with said the same thing (never message up a machine after the uninstall). I just tried it on a WIndows 7 box, and it worked like a champ.

I believe that your cp.get file should be something like:

salt * cp.get_file salt://test123.txt C:\

You can also do this with the file.managed in a state file.

C:\zabbix_agent\zabbix_agentd.conf: file.managed: - source: - salt://zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf - user: root - group: root - mode: 644

Mail: I have O365 but I want to add a bunch of generic email addresses and avoid paying the $2 -5/mo. What was the solution?

Distribution groups. Someone with a real email has to be a member to get the messages, but that is how you make a bunch of various addresses.

Do the domain's have to be setup at O365?

@msff-amman-Itofficer

I still need to test Nextcloud for the available options in terms of governance and compliance.

@Mike-Davis said in Checking on patch levels with multiple clients. ninite pro?:

For those of you running a WSUS server in the cloud, who should I consider? AWS EC2? Azure? How do I estimate the bandwidth etc that's going to be required each month to keep 140 machines up to date?

If your WSUS server is in the cloud, then you will tell the workstations to download direct from Microsoft. The Cloud instance will have next to no traffic other than checkins.

You setup your clients to talk to your cloud WSUS instance. to know what to update, but tell them to download direct. Why download things twice? Once to WSUS, then once to client.

Your WSUS instance will not download anything except the listings for approval.

Just found this similar project

Yay! Finally something real to link to.

That's why I made it, I needed it this morning 🙂

@guyinpv said in [URGENT ALERT] Defend Against This Ransomware WMD NOW:

Has anyone been affected you know of? Make sure them backups are in order!

No one personally or directly. But loads of people on SW.

Not worth the effort for the case.

Thanks for the help guys.

@Farhad-Farahmand said in Elastix Call Back Feature:

only for internal calls . not inbound call or outbound call . simply you are calling my extension number . i am busy on another call . once i get free my extension should call your extension at that time .

Still, it would potentially be ringing people and interrupting them and then have no one calling them. How would that work?
