@scottalanmiller That would be nice. I'll hold my breath.

I have Centurylink at home. I can do a quick check from there when I get home. Maybe unrelated, but I was having some severe issues with DNS a couple weeks back at home.

I'll post more info on my findings tonight.

Thanks.

LUKS will work great for that. We used it in big finance to deal with stuff like government bank account details.

Both a non-significant threat and already resolved by the major distros. But good to be aware of these things. Good reminder that physical access means security has been breached.

Now one might argue that the solution provider does take this into consideration and fully expects their customers to rebuy when "required to" because the underlying software is considered a security risk. But we all know that this is rarely if ever the case.

Yes but... it makes it the customer's fault 🙂

What's just as bad is often the vendor doesn't have a new solution either.

No different than offering no solution at all. It means that the vendor no longer offers a supported product. Time to move on.

I'm actually setting up an XO VM right now...

Great minds.

From what I saw though, in a future release (coming soon...) they are building in incremental backup functionality to XO.

Which is AWESOME.

No this was the one from XenCenter.

I just destroyed the patch as it seemed to be bugged.

xe patch-destroy uuid=<UUID of Patch>

@scottalanmiller I have downloaded Ubuntu 15.10 now.I will try with that soon

Ergo... not an important problem to solve 🙂

Think at this point - going to mark this as Solved.

Awesome..

Who knows how long this vulnerability was in place? Seems like they really wouldn't want to disclose that information or just don't know. Kind of sad for a security company.

This likens back to the Lenovo conversation. Are they malevolent or just incompetent?

Well I half'd it, set the minimum to 1GB and the Max to 4Gb and now have a Committed of 1.4/9.0GB...

So yeah this VM can't do math... or something else is scaling it..

The Pentium bug is back... 2 + 2 = 5!

@Dashrender said:

huh, it sounds like you take that WAY farther that I've seen anyone, including hospitals take it.

We've already established that I am a "What-If" planner with OCD. Would you expect any less?

In all seriousness, though, we have a lot of clients in healthcare and pharma, and they require that level of protection.

I was just told by other people they've been having this issue because of UNC path hardening in windows 10.

I must be in a mood this morning. In my mind when I read this I pictured Windows getting older and having its arteries stiffening up from cholesterol.

@BRRABill I worked as a technician at a Ubreakifix repair shop for a short time.

Would that have been maybe an iPhone 4S, where you had to go in through the back cover and take almost everything apart to get at that screen?

From the iPhone 5 forward, the screens got pretty easy to change out pretty quickly after seeing a couple, but it's also definitely an adjustment starting to work with parts and screws that are 10% of the usual size. Once in a while, something like a flex cable could just seem determined to not stay in one piece.

When receiving a bad part means having to wait for another order rather than just going back to the shelf to look for a good one, that's another disincentive for diy too.

Yeah, I had done a few 3Gs, and it was easy. Then the 4 or 4S ... it involved around 30+ screws. It was ridiculous.

As much as I typically help anyone who asks for computer help (I know, I know) for phones and tablets I send them to the mall.

The user is connecting the intranet LAN inside the office and able to login to the VPN.When the VPN is logged in there is no issue in the browsing internet.
When the user connects to the Wireless Modem from his home,the VPN is connecting but internet is not working.Why?
The environment is Windows 7 Enterprise Edition.What may be the issue?
The proxy is used in the browser but proxy is not used when connected in the Wireless Modem.

In Advanced TCP/IP settings on the VPN, double check that "use default gateway on remote network" is unchecked...
