Yes, it should boot up just fine.

Why do I get the feeling no one has ever tested this, haha.

@scottalanmiller said in Updating Windows from the Command Line:

Keeping a system up to date is very important and doing so from the command line can be one of the easiest ways to do this on Windows.

Updating a Windows system, server or desktop, can be as simple as running this command as an administrator:

wuauclt.exe /detectnow /updatenow

If you only want to look for the latest updates without applying them, you can just run:

wuauclt.exe /detectnow

Also:
wuauclt.exe /a /detectnow

At least one person around here is running their own controller.

The way I interact with everyone may change in the near future (like I'll actually help people for once). This server is going to allow me to learn rapidly.

Any reason that you are looking to build your own? The hosted version gives you 100 free nodes. That's a lot.

Experience only. I have their hosted solution for the things I actually need to work 😄

xByte would be a great option, I bet that they would have a solution for you with this.

So, apparently the version of raspbian that DIY temp sensor is on, the version of gluster in the repository is 3.2.7. Which just happens to be the last version before they broke backwards compatibility, so the client on the pi can't connect to the gluster servers running 3.7.9. I'm building from source currently, and if it works, I'll post the condensed version of how I got it working.

I have a cross compiler VM somewhere, but I won't have a chance to look before the next weekend.

I think the problem is that the Pi2 is 32 bit, and the programming expects 64 bit now. So, in theory, a Pi3 would work.

Erm, can be yes. My CC build is also just 32bit, pretty sure. And the gluster stuff is 64bit arm?

The errors I was able to read during compile were complaining about variables defined as int64w, which wouldn't work so well on a 32 bit platform I don't think.

I can define a long int (64bit/8 bytes on most platforms) just fine on any 32bit CPU. You can even do that on a 8 or 16 bit uC. So probably the failure is somewhere else?

Possibly, let's see if I can find that compile-time error here.

I learned something new today. I have been using the shutdown command for years. I never realized you could rename a PC with it.

shutdown doesn't do the renaming, you just have to reboot after you rename.

I use "m" instead of c for computer name

/c is the comment for the logs to tell them that you just "Renamed Machine", it doesn't rename it, it literally puts "Renamed Machine" into the reboot logs.

Ok. Got ya.

Considering it bounced most request between 20 and 300 random locations in the world for the original address, I'd guess pretty well secured.

But you could just chase the hops back to it's source eventually, so they are adding encryption to it.

Which is pretty awesome.

@dafyre said in Installing Scale Tools on Windows Server Core from Command Line:

I'm unfamiliar with the Server Core setup... but can't you install these drivers as part of the Windows installation process?

Storage yes, but I'm unaware of a simple way during a stock install to include other drivers. The storage ones are requested, and necessary, during the install. Otherwise the installation location does not show up (unless you don't use VirtIO block devices.) You can definitely add the tools into an image, and there is probably a way to include Ethernet devices ahead of time, but I'm not used to the installation process to know where it happens.

I just select all 3 of the INF files and go... It's always installed everything for me, lol... Just point it at the folder for the right OS and 32 or 64 bit... (Note: This is the way I did it in Scale v4.3... I've not had a chance to use their newer stuff yet.

At what stage are you selecting them?

During the install process... the same place where you go when you're picking the storage drivers.

I rarely do modifications at that stage. Still, handy to have a simple option because a lot of people will get the install done and find that there is no networking and need to know what to do at that point. 🙂

@thwr said in Installing VirtualBox inside a virtual machine?:

Oh, a spin-off thread. Missed that.

Like I said, Hyper-V can do nested (or V-in-V) virtualization. Even when running on a desktop machine like Windows 8 / 10.

Just did that myself because we had to extract something from a vagrant file. Can also be good for evaluating other (type 1) hypervisors like running Xen on top of Hyper-V.

It's good in some cases but never ever think about production usage (yet).
That's because it is bare metal and never actually runs ON Windows 10, Windows 10 always runs on it.

You are right, I tend to forget that at times 🙂

mysql -D asterisk -e "UPDATE ampusers SET password_sha1='e1edd0771b6345f00b5557b98b2bde8fd66744c5' WHERE username='admin'"

Why on earth do you give an instruction with a hash in it?

Why not use the MySQL SHA1() function?

mysql -D asterisk -e "UPDATE ampusers SET password_sha1=SHA1('CHANGEME') WHERE username='admin'"

@dafyre said in Offline Files:

That's not the option I'm thinking about then. There's one that will let you view the cached offline files (assuming you run the NTFS Undelete successfully)...

Yes but to view them the whole database that windows uses must be restored. It's not true files on the system that you are accessing with that.
