@scottalanmiller thank you, I had hopes maybe some got thrown in.

On another note, I might have a couple nice shape dell t610's getting decommisioned for purchase. (Not sure just throwing it out there.)

List of specs would be nice. 8-)

I'll see if @Minion-Queen or @art_of_shred can get us an updated list.

@JaredBusch so I'd have to purchase an additional POE injector or do they come with the UAP‑AC‑LITE?

All of the UAP series come with a PoE.

Well that's just swell, saves some money.

Thank you for the input.

Brilliant Read, I've used Esxi and Hyper-V, good products, but I do have a inner love for Xencenter..

@WrCombs said in Getting Started for NTG Interns:

Thank you for the advice! I look forward to learning more from you

As you learn - don't forget that sometimes you have to question. There have been countless times that I have 'taught' something only to learn of a different and sometimes better way of doing the same task.

@stacksofplates said in Quick DNS Question:

I can't believe I didn't do this a while back. No more chroots to run real applications. I also have my home folder on a 128GB USB 3 flash drive that's pretty tiny. It's a pretty nice and cheap setup.

Unless you are an actual end users, I can't imagine wanting to use ChromeOS instead of a "real" OS.

@gjacobse said in O365 Shared Calendar: Permissions:

This may not be the correct configuration, but it currently is working for the most part.

Office has a <user> account set as Public for the Calendar. Most people are able to access the <public> calendar to add appointments and vacation items. Except one person (currently).

Ideally, I would believe you would want it set as a Resource - not as a <user>, but at this moment we are not going to convert it. Trying to find the permissions that are needed to allow full access for internal staff to update the calendar. I have been looking through the admin pages, and have not found what I believe to be all that is needed.

Pretty sure it's under:
Exchange Admin Center; Recipients; Mailboxes (since it's a <user> calendar); Edit User

You'd go into the office 365 portal, find this public calendar user, go to delegation access and assign people there. (At least that is what I would do)

Doesn't this cost a monthly fee as well?

Does the VM I want to work from need to be offline?

When attaching the disk? yes.

why? You can add new disks to VMWare while a VM is running without any issues. I'm pretty sure you can attach a pre-existing partition as well.

You can do the same in XenServer. At least with Windows as the guest. I haven't tried it with Linux.

You can't however do this if the source drive is running on a separate VM. (That VM must be powered off).

Which is what I did in order to do this.

Right, unless you unmount the source drive first. I don't even think VMWare can reliably do this.

VMware can do it reliably on its side, but it would still hose the data inside the drive.

Right, unless it's a cluster aware OS and Filesystem.

Just cluster aware filesystem. GFS2, OCFS, VxFS would all work fine.

@Mike-Davis Interesting. The note file creation was what tipped it off for me at my last company.

Alpha on Linux running fine here.

Well, since going to 7.25.106 I've not had any issues.

send us a screen shot so we can tell you it's just you 😛

Can't reply to a thread when a theme is applied.

I was really enjoying the better readability but having to switch theme to default, close all tabs, force close chrome/Firefox, reopen ML and reply to topic is a very long winded way of doing things

@travisdh1 Zabbix is a monitoring solution you're probably thinking of another product, probably Zentyal I would guess.

I bet you're right. I think it's a good thing I wasn't trying to fix things Friday, I would've just made things much worse!

"I'll jus treinstall Zabbix here and get everything back up and... hey what the crap is this?!"

No hack. Nathan found multiple security issues and flaws in the way imgur's development environment was set up. He reported this to imgur and says he has been rewarded for reporting the bugs / flaws by imgur's CEO and received at least 5,500 USD as a bounty.

BTW, the second half is a good read 🙂

Didn't you go to bed already?

Said nothing about sleeping 😉

Well, this conversation devolved even quicker than normal for us.... Imgur being hacked, to being in bed but not sleeping, 100% certain that the two should not be combined 😉

sovled? no, is it a real issue, not really.

I still need to upgrade to Exchange 2016, now that WIndows 10 upgrade and my vacation is behind me.. I can look into this.

Has this one reached a conclusion? Should we close it out?

Well then, another one bites the dust.

I have seen the video previously. Hilarious, watching it again now haha.
