@Farhad-Farahmand said in FreePBX setup with Digium Box G100:

yeah i have connected PRI link to Digium Box G100 and wants to receive calls on freePBX extensions

So you want the G100 to just convert the PRI to SIP?

Is this what you want?

What if any work have you done so far?

That's the part I'm assuming he already has done.

This really follows along well with this discussion: https://mangolassi.it/topic/11852/why-it-builds-a-house-of-cards

It's far easier to avoid the "house of cards" motivation problems with an MSP than with internal staff.

One thing I'll say about HP is that historically they have purchased the right to manufacture Canon's engines. It's a fun little fact that a lot of people I've met don't know

@scottalanmiller said in Elastix 5 Dials 3CX for its Telephony Engine:

And PIAF was the goofy "build it yourself" version of FreePBX. Just silly. Why build it yourself and have things go wrong when FreePBX was totally free and open and did it all for you and had the ability to update, get support, has a community, etc.?

One point of note here @scottalanmiller PBX in a Flash existed a long time before FreePBX was a distro of its own. But yes, once FreePBX existed as a distro, there was never any other reason to do anything else.

Isn't M-DISC just a generic BluRay disc maker?

Probably.

Doctors... would they get their medical guidance from pill makers?

I know I'm late to this thread, but from what I've known actually knowing an OBGYN, this is exactly what happens way to often.

That's incredibly scary.

When was the last time you were to a Doctors office in the U.S. and didn't come out with a script for something?

That's not how it's supposed to be, it's just what most people end up actually doing. The big conglomerates actually get their sales pitches certified as continued training time for the docs.

It's true, but even I thought that doctors thought of themselves as something more than drug pushers. Maybe not a lot more, but something more.

Thing is, they do think themselves as something more than drug pushers. The entire system is so screwy now that they end up thinking pushing drugs is the best possible solution almost all the time.

That's what they tell you. I find it impossibly insulting of their intelligence to suggest that in private it's not what they think of themselves.

Could be. The OB I worked with was horrified by the entire system, so I probably picked up a very cynical view of things.

@FloridaMan said in Recording Employee Calls at Work in the US:

When I call a company, I often get an automated answer, alerting me to the fact that the call may be recorded, before being transferred to the menu or operator.

If an employee calls me, I'm not notified that the call may be recorded. Should the first thing the employee tells me is that the call might be recorded?

If the call might actually be recorded, heck yeah. There might be cases where they do not need to do that, but it is very unlikely that that employee could know when those cases might come up because it is the physical location of the other party, not the number that they call or where they are based or what their activity is, that matters legally. They could easily be violating federal, state or even international laws.

I do notice that Linphone provides real time feedback no individual calls, which is nice.

@gjacobse said in Pertino or VPN - They work and they don't:

Setup VPN via Windows - about half the time it will connect, then fail, and fail to reconnect.

Pertino will connect and allow access

Pertino kills the ability to connect to O365 via Outlook, and they must use OWA unless they disconnect the Pertino.

What a battle this has been... back and forth with it.

Why not push them to the web interface if it doesn't have issues? That seems like the most reasonable and simplest solution.

No one seems to like the web version.

I feel like more people just need to be pushed to use it. I think most just don't try it and say they don't like it to not have to do something new.

Agreed. Due to calendar issues if we go to O365, webmail will be a requirement, no more Outlook

Not sure a non admin can uninstall UWP apps. Store access should be available to admins.

@scottalanmiller said in NextCloud 10.0.1 to 10.0.2 Update Error:

@stacksofplates said in NextCloud 10.0.1 to 10.0.2 Update Error:

What's your SELinux context of that file? I assume no ACLs?

Would that be able to impact me if chmod worked?

Ah you're right nm. And if I would have actually looked at your output I would have noticed no ACLs. I just remembered ownCloud had an SELinux issue during the install.

Did it just give you that error or could you actually not use the site?

@scottalanmiller said in panic button for IP phone:

@Mike-Davis said in panic button for IP phone:

@Dashrender I'd be pitching what ever kind of PBX @Mike-Ralston wants to build and support and what ever kind of phones would work well for them.

That'll be FreePBX.

I assumed as much, but wanted to make sure.. so get a list of functions then compare to functions on old system.

@StrongBad said in Self healing applications with Salt:

How many people around here are using Salt? I have heard of it but have not seen it in action.

Been a while, but I'm using it now.

@Dashrender said in MSP Teams in the SMB:

I will give you that, if the reasoning was sound and their fired the MSP anyhow, the client is probably a bad client and won't keep MSPs for very long because they are unreasonable, but let's not go down that path.

And that's why MSPs fire clients just as often as vice versa. But when you, as an MSP, start with a new client, they always leave out the big about having been fired and act like they did the firing.

@scottalanmiller said in SAN Products Short List:

@BBigford and @zuphzuph were asking about this and I figured we should talk about it here. If you are shopping for a SAN, what is your vendor short list?

How does PureStorage fit into all of this?
