    What does Drush do? What requirements does it have that keep it from getting installed?

    Drush is a CLI tool for Drupal. You can pretty much manage your whole site with it. But you need root access (or sudo).

    If you update Drupal manually on shared hosting you pretty much have to back up the whole site, redownload the new Drupal version, reupload your sites folder (where all your info is), change the DB settings file, and chmod it.

    With drush you type drush up drupal and you're done.

    Or if you want to update everything (modules and themes also) type drush up

    It's more of a pain with shared hosting to do all of that also.

    To see if I could reproduce the error by moving the account from the default Users folder back to the OU where it was I discovered that when I moved it to the Users folder the error went away. I put the user back in the OU where it came from and the error won't come back. I agree - weird indeed.

    In summary, I guess if I move those users to the Users folder and back where they came from, the problem should be resolved. I'll have to test on a couple other users.

    After doing everything the articles said and rebooting the server, when it still wasn't working, I wondered if it had something to do with not being able to write to those attributes, so I created a test account in the users OU, and it worked. Checking the license log, I noticed that the server had been giving out licenses properly, but not for all accounts. Then I went through the log again and discovered that all the 4105 errors were generated by accounts that were not in the default Users OU.

    IMO it's not a driver issue if it can't serve the printers. Driver issues will occur after you try adding the printer from your workstation

    There is very little information. You may be right. I know that I have run into similar problems and it's been driver related.

    Rack mounted desktops like dell Precisions are great for high end 3d CAD (way way overkill for 2D), Animation, Video Production etc.

    Pretty common setup. They make remote graphics cards with client stations designed for these setups.

    Yup, while not "in every corner office", the rack mounted desktop is a long standing use case and works quite well.

    I had a Windows 7 SP1 lock up on me a few weeks ago. I did everything in this thread 1-2 times and it eventually started working. I let it sit 24 hours before I started and It wouldn't move until I installed the hot fixes.

    Even ServerMonkey? I ask because I haven't actually used them myself yet.

    I've heard there not so good. Never used them myself.

    We used Server Monkey to get a Dell R510 a couple of years ago and have had good experiences with them during the time we've been under their parts warranty. The support has been good I thought. But I have not used them for any HP gear.

    Upgraded from 8.2.2 to 8.2.3 Everything works but when I share a file the notify by email check box is no longer there. Did OC remove it?

    Where is the check box? I do not see it in my 8.2.2 instance either.
    B ut I assume I would need this setting enabled before I see it.

    OK - yeah, that's a completely normal Fax Server solution - definitely not the direction I was hoping to go.

    We don't have faxes for people, we only have one fax number for the whole company. All those faxes are saved to a central network share.

    I don't want to expand faxing, and definitely don't want 100 DIDs so everyone could have their own "fax line"

    Thanks though

    Who goes through all of the faxes and how are they labeled as to make sense?

    An employee.

    Are you using an extra app that is not part of ownCloud itself? What is the exact app?

    no, users access OC using a browser

    I don't mean an app for the users. i mean an app installed on ownCloud to provide the encryption.

    0_1457640037846_Capture.PNG

    Could that encryption application be what is blocking the file sharing?

    maybe, but it wont let me disable it

    That's not good. Perhaps because the content is already encrypted?

    i disabled the module in the apps menu

    @scottalanmiller This still seems very cheap to me.

    Let's say I am using this plan:

    0_1457630913449_2016-03-10 12_27_04-Deploy Servers - Vultr.com.png

    This plan includes almost 1TB of Bandwifth. So even if I filled the server completely, and did a full backup, I would use 250GB of bandwidth leaving me 750GB for the rest of the month.....

    Amazon doesn't charge for uploading, only downloading.... 125GB is $3.75

    What I am missing?

    I'm not sure what you are asking. But to me you've answered the question, so I'm not sure what you are missing. But if you were to use S3 to back up a 125GB instance that only costs $5 and, say, restored twice (which is nothing) your backup would cost more than the entire service does, a lot more. And you'd likely be unhappy if your backups used your bandwidth. So doesn't that totally explain why backups of this nature are not included in the $5? Vultr could not possibly afford to offer this.
