    It was in the big write up with all the price changes... http://mangolassi.it/topic/8928/zerotier-gui-updates-new-features-and-new-pricing-structure

    It was just a quiet mention... Not even a bold or italics line. lol.

    LOL - it was in the part that MLNews actually posted itself.

    @mlnews

    Along with our web UI and our subscription service, we have quite a bit more in the pipeline. Our iOS version is now in beta. If you want to try it out via TestFlight drop us an e-mail and we'll send you an invite. Major announcements on the Network Containers and Enterprise fronts are coming soon as well.

    @Dashrender There is some licensing requirement but I don't remember if it is the Microsoft CAL or if a separate license is required by Polycom for the phone itself. If I get a chance today I'll look it up.

    I'm very much a Linux noob, so I don't know what command to use. But I'd just use a regular expression alone or perhaps in combination with some other command to get the desired text here. In Powershell I would use the -match operator and/or the Select-String cmdlet.

    Yeah, it's a terrible idea.
    Fortunately, you can turn it off.

    Whether NAP in Windows 10 blocks internet to the ubuntu 16.04

    No, that is not a reasonable concern. It would block LAN access, too.

    Linux can the follow up to this is how can I schedule WinSCP to sync the remote directory.

    Why don't you just reverse that and push the changes out from the linux box to your windows 7 box?

    How would I do that? (I haven't considered it, nor done this before)

    Well, normally I'd assume the simple tools being used work, but PuTTY doesn't want to generate or properly do key based ssh authorization for some reason. Gotta be a simple setting some where we were both missing.

    I'd call PuTTY the complex tool here. Takes a lot more work to manage than just using SMB.

    I don't normally us it, but have it available. Hasn't played nice while trying to work with key-based auth, so it probably won't get installed anymore.

    @JaredBusch Yes they are static assign /29 IP's from the ISP.
    In the draytek you specify the IP's you have and then use the NAT screen to open ports on each IP to a local IP on the network.

    Just wanted to check a similar thing can be done with the EdgeRouter.

    And yes I know the EdgeRouter has no modem, just want to check if Bridge mode would work or would I need to assign the Modem an IP and the others to the EdgeRouter.

    Long ago I had an article on this on my own blog but that is no longer up, so I am copying it here...

    https://web.archive.org/web/20150221062029/http://www.scottalanmiller.com/linux/2012/09/02/improving-elastix-memory-usage/

    The default installation of Elastix has more services running than are typically needed or desired on a PBX. These services eat far more memory that is necessary and can very easily be cleaned up to improve memory utilization.

    First we will stop a series of unnecessary services from starting at boot time (this will disable shared storage, local email handling, new hardware detection, etc. so be aware that this does stop some things but any service that proves to be needed is trivial to re-enable.)

    chkconfig nfslock off chkconfig cyrus-imapd off chkconfig iscsi off chkconfig iscsid off chkconfig netfs off chkconfig kudzu off

    Further, if your system is like mine you likely use the web server very lightly but will find that the default configuration of Apache is set to spawn, by default, eight processes. This is far too many for a normal deployment. Each process uses memory. For an average deployment of Elastix, three is more than enough. You need only raise this number if web performance suffers. This will not impact telephony performance regardless.

    In the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf we need to edit the section:

    <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 2 MinSpareServers 2 MaxSpareServers 8 ServerLimit 256 MaxClients 256 MaxRequestsPerChild 4000 </IfModule>

    to something more like this:

    <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 3 MinSpareServers 2 MaxSpareServers 10 ServerLimit 256 MaxClients 256 MaxRequestsPerChild 4000 </IfModule>

    You can wait for the system to reboot or restart Apache manually:

    service httpd restart

    And finally, to control swapping activity on the box, assuming that you want to avoid swapping when unnecessary, which I do because my box is virtualized, simply add this line on to /etc/sysctl.conf:

    vm.swappiness = 10

    You’ll want to test that number carefully. A setting of “10” is quite standard for virtualized systems. The default is “60”. For a physical deployment the higher value is likely better as it allows CentOS to make better decisions about how to utilize memory for maximum throughput. But on a virtualized system we really want to avoid, typically, any additional contention at the storage IO layer.
    [Testing on Elastix 2.0 and 2.3]

    Well yeah. I don't see why you're conflating on-premise Exchange with having an internal IT department. I'm guessing NTG has supported on-premise Exchange for clients for years?

    Sure. And I think that we are decent at it. But I'll be the first to admit that we can't do it as well as Microsoft can themselves. Do we try to? Sure. But realistically, we just can't. We can do a good job, but they have resources and scale and access to things that we cannot have.

    We do, as an MS partner, have access to MS support directly and in ways that normal customers do not. That helps bridge that gap, but MS is always part of the bigger equation.

    I had made an assumption wig the name that they were related to XS. I didn't know they weren't, but just adding xen to everything.

    XenApp is the basis for Windows RDS.

    And now it runs on top of RDS..

    Always did, more or less. I think for a while they bundled TS in it and install it all together. Now it automates the install. All the same though, they made TS/RDS for MS and took out the high end features (ICA being the biggest one) and when you install MetaFrame/XenApp they put them back in.

    While that makes sense, the issue that they are mentioning there is not the issue that the FSF has with it. So they are ignoring the question at hand, which is distributing them together.
