    Macrium also retains security, BTW, so there is no difference to taking ownership as in the VHD.

    I take it back. You CAN browse the backup/image in Macrium without having to take ownership. Sweet.

    @Mike-Davis Both of our DC's are physical at the moment.

    Our primary DC reaches out to a public time source, and everything else is supposed to sync with that DC.

    No, it doesn't support this. RAID 1, you are correct, but Parity RAID 5 or 6 it does not. The OS needs to be up and running to be able to manage the parity RAID so you can't use it for the system install, only for extra data volumes.

    You are correct, I'm afraid. Doesn't look like they offer anything else either.

    Thanks Scott- hope you're well.

    I am, and hope that you are as well 🙂

    Marketing and research are by far the primary means of getting information out, but sales plays an important role as well.

    Not for me. I'm struggling to think of any product I've bought as a result of sales people. Marketing & research cover everything for me. In fact, sales people are such a turn-off for me, that I'm more likely to buy a product if they don't have any sales and I just talk to an engineer.

    Well I generally agree, I am the same way here. I don't think that in the SMB it matters quite as much. We are far less likely to have a product seek us out to have a conversation, it's too costly to do. In the enterprise space, this is how it works though. Small, new vendor takes a big player out for food and gives them a presentation so that they get their name known.

    From what I found, if you have licenses, you can activate them then hack your registry to get the older clients to work. I haven't been able to reproduce that in my lab.

    The size comes to the fact that I have metal brackets on the back of the monitors that fit the Wyse P20. If I can find something that fits that, I can just swap them out and it makes for a quicker set up and tear down of the room.

    I came across this thread, and it the Remix Mini might work. http://mangolassi.it/topic/7992/remix-mini-as-a-thin-client/3

    I tested connecting to the 2012 R2 server from a tablet and that works.

    A 500 error usually means that your application pool isn't setup properly.

    Got an extended error output?

    Nope. Found out the guys webconfig was all messed up. I fixed it. There a lot of stuff off in how this guy was doing things.

    That would do it. The config file is what controls the pool. If it's misconfigured, it's gonna throw 500 errors.

    When in doubt, always turn on the whole error message:

    I think I asked this in the original thread but... why not use a CRM that lets you do more than just CRM rather than trying to connect a CRM to WP? SugarCRM might do everything that you need in a single package, for example.

    Make the job sound much easier than it is, even if it's an easy job, in order to destroy his confidence. I'm serious. Young people in general do have a lot of unwarranted confidence about their abilities, but IT people especially need to understand they don't know everything and never will. I'm not saying be mean or condescending, but what I've done for years now is talk about the minor details of what I'm fixing and how it works, things they often don't know. Most don't say anything, but a few times a few have said they were over their heads, and one guy even quit, but the work they were doing wasn't really that complex.

    @NetworkNerd I have 9 volumes, 5 of which are active. I re-create volumes every so often and let the backups on the other volumes sit until they expire. I am actually in the process of a rebuild. I came in yesterday morning to a failed drive. I put the new drive in at like 11:30 and it still says it has like 40 hours left for rebuild.

    So for example, if it detects that you passed the --socket flag if would hit that condition and then look for the ${1} which would be the following parameter and sets the socket variable to that value and tells it to move on or shift to the next argument and continue the loop.

    @travisdh1 Who/what is in charge of "controlling" all those users & their access?

    ownCloud.

    I assumed the users will access more than oC even though the drawing doesn't show that?

    Ah, well that's different then.

    I should've just labeled the server as "Services" instead of "OwnCloud"

    Looks like there is quite a bit included in the free version for up to 10 premium users, and 10 basic users. Interesting.

    Yes, it is quite extensive.
