Awesome thanks guys, I'll wait for the next computer to go down then I'll report back with results!

@Romo I should find out soon enough. Just finished spinning up a new VM for this.

@Mike-Davis said in Exchange 2010 Synchronization Service Manager - Automating this with PowerShell:

When you fire that power shell script off, if you go back to the sync manager, you'll see it does all 6 things. 🙂

Yep, that's how I confirmed it!

@syko24 said in Headset Recommendations for softphone:

@thanksajdotcom - Really just something that is comfortable and over the ear. Being able to walk away from my desk while on the phone would be nice as I am a pacer when I talk.

I assume that wireless models actually connect to the wifi network or are they all just Bluetooth with some kind of base station/usb module.

Also, I prefer over-the-ear, which is why I like the W730. If you see an M after it, all that means is that the specific model is Microsoft certified, but the ones without it work just as well. Also, Plantronics has some awesome software you can use to help manage it, that is very nice and powerful. It's free too. 🙂 aka no extra licensing or fees to get it or use it

In the case of the college, their dedicated IOT network was using DNS from their corporate network.

Then it wasn't dedicated 😉

No, clearly it wasn't dedicated.

@scottalanmiller said in MY Cloud IT for Azure RDS:

If you aren't careful, that's how you end up getting hit with both RDS and VDI licensing at the same time!

Oh I understand. I have not personally used winflector. It looked interesting with their claim of not using RDS I figured it was a workaround MS licensing.

Probably just a clever way to get people to assume that. Not the first company to bank on that exact process.

@stacksofplates I am pretty happy with it over all.

@Dashrender said in Unifi switch - tagged traffic issues:

Found the problem - the uplink from my Unifi to my core switch, VLAN 2 wasn't allowed on the connection.

Enabled VLAN2, problem solved.

Aww the little things.

on which switch.

Also, reinforcing the issue with VLAN complicating things.

The core switch, in my case an HP 2824.

I don't disagree that VLANs can/do add complication. But in this case it was pre-existing complication that I had to work through, not remove at this point.

@JaredBusch Hmmm, the post was mostly meant to also try and help ppl coming from, say, ownCloud 5 - they will get in trouble with the apps, finding the old tarballs etcetera.

If you're on 8 or 9, there is not much news because it isn't, or rather- shouldn't be too hard. Would really like to know what problems you had as we have to fix those 😉

Note that Nextcloud 11.0.2 comes early next week, Monday probably.

@thwr said in Ubiquiti switches: UniFi vs EdgeMax:

Mh, is the EdgeSwitch able to run a VPN tunnel on its own? I need to connect a "remote" office to my server room. The office is in the 3rd floor, my server room in the basement and I need to run through a "public" patch room (primary cabling junction for the building).

Like:
3rd floor "remote" office -> fiber -> public patch room -> fiber -> my Serverroom (basement) -> Office

I doubt it has the ability to configure a VPN that seems like an edge device is needed for that.

It does not. That would be the router's job.

Yeah, could have been. Probably the same software behind the scenes etc.

@msff-amman-Itofficer said in Best tool to manage Centos KVM ? + Guide:

but in Windows environment (virt-viewer) they dont have ssh... so how can I resolve it?

Windows has had SSH for a while now. Both OpenSSH as a server and OpenSSH as a client, plus tools like Putty, too.

That doesn't help with virt-viewer though unless you're making a tunnel. I've never used virt-viewer on windows so I don't know if it has an option for keys.

Thanks. Isn't that Mikrotik hardware?

yes, Routerboard if their hw brand, as RouterOS is for software

Heard some bad things about it. Will take another look, thanks again

like what?

like poor software, bugs, failing hardware and what not

for these particular models or in general? I use routerboards a lot (from smallest up to CCR1009) and it never failed. I don't know for 1036 and 1072.

I don't know a specific model right now, just rumors I've heard here and there

Maybe problem with noowners mount option?

KVM with Virtmanager.
Centos latest is my preferred KVM host.
And Fedora LXDE Spin is my preferred Virt-Manager choice, I use it from inside Windows using Virtualbox.

Cause it resembles the old ESXi Philosophy with Vsphere C# client
And you can do whatever you want with it, and for free. Especially when you use virt IO drivers for network and disk, you get nearly identical bare metal speeds.

But sadly its lacking other tools to allow users to connect and use the VM, you will have to do this from inside the VM like RDP and VNC.

@travisdh1 said in indoor wireless bridge - Fresnel zone😆

No provision to run more wires, that's an architect I'd have a few words with/for.

I don't think that's fair. They didn't have network cabling back when these buildings were built.

If you consider a residential house, just as fast as people started running network cables to the backs of TVs, manufactures started building in wifi adapters that make the network cable unneeded. Right now people are putting in conduit between their entertainment center and the back of their wall mounted TV for all the cables. 5 years from now we'll probably have a wireless HDMI cable that will make that obsolete.

We'll agree to disagree on that then.

That said, I do think your wireless option should work.

@travisdh1 said in Cannot setup Google Drive on NextCloud:

@IRJ said in Cannot setup Google Drive on NextCloud:

Unfortunately I am using a hosted CPanel install of NextCloud. Which means my host has restricted large uploads from their level and changing the htaacess file and user.ini file in Nextcloud has no effect.

So I pretty much have to have Google. I was able to setup Dropbox within seconds, but they only give free users 2GB. Google gives you 15GB and 100GB for $2.99 a month.

So you do not have access to your php settings file? Could you ask them to increase that limit? Seems like a standard thing.

Also, vultr.com offers a full VPS and 50GB of storage for $5/month, might think about going that way if the current host is so limited.

HOw does this help anything. Can you try a google config ?

Just as a comparison, here's what it would look like with Ansible:

name: Recursively own html files file: path: /var/www/html owner: apache group: apache state: directory recurse: yes

@Dashrender said in XenServer 7.0 issues on HP Elite 8100, 6.5 Flies.:

I have a HP EliteDesk 800 G1 SFF as my XS 7.0 test box. Works great!

I don't see any issue with a lab box being PC based.

Yeah. My "oh s***" box is a Dell T3500. It stood in for the server while it got upgraded to XS7 from XS6.

@Breffni-Potter exactly. There is a clear market for this, why is there any question why they provide a product where there is demand?
