    I've never used Verizon as my own service, mainly because their price is significantly higher than the rest. But I had to give up my cheaper Sprint plan for something that actually worked! Moving to AT&T was cheaper than Verizon, because of GSM compatible with most European carriers and therefore roam-able, and worked well in my home (Verizon, like Sprint does not work in my house).

    Thats why I like TMobile. Uses any GSM towers that it can, included AT&T and whatever is local in the country that you are in. And at home it always works because they have full WiFi calling. So I never have to worry about it at my home, any family member's homes or other places that I go regularly.

    Here is the info on how to do it. Just Google it and it brings you to MangoLassi 🙂

    Pertino themselves use this info to help customers. ML had it documented first. Pertino saw the reports that NTG had it working, asked us how to do it, we pointed them to the ML docs and voila...

    @scottalanmiller Virtual or Physical? If Physical, how did you handle the potential for Split Brain?

    It was physical, but the split brain issue is the same.

    You use a STONITH strategy and have a master site and do not fail back transparently.

    But do that with the above example would mean I'd have to indent all lines?

    Is that correct?

    Correct.

    Sure, for websites you want to host on their platform.

    That's um... less than good.

    That is also my default starting recommendation.

    For just under $200 you get 1 ERL + 1 UAP. Pretty much perfect for almost all SMB offices.

    Drop 2 hours of labor in there and you are done with the base proposal.

    In the US at least, Scott is correct - these places don't care about repeat sales, they only care about this one sale today. Specialty stores care about repeat business, but big box stores.. nah.. they know there are 10 more people behind you looking to buy something.

    Well it isn't that they don't want repeat sales. It is that there are many factors:

    Many (most) customers never evaluate the advice that they were given to see if it was good so are just taken advantage of over and over again. Switching stores would mean admitting their own mistakes of the past and most people would rather make the same mistake twice and claim it was not a mistake than to fix their behaviour and not make the mistake again. There might not be other stores available or they may have no idea where to go.

    I hate Best Buy, but sometimes they are what is around. But I never ask them for advice, that would be ridiculous, obviously they have no idea about cables, audio equipment, computers, whatever. They know less than random people on the street in most cases.

    Remember that "requesting email" is a completely illogical thing to do in a court if the goal was to see what had been said. Why would any court say "Show us all of the email communications that went through Exchange but don't show us the Lync messages, documents stored in other systems, contents of attachments, etc."

    Of course they don't do that. That would be incredibly silly. They request categories like "all external communications", "all internal" or whatever it is they are looking for.

    Please provide a screenshot of the connector details.

    And what anti-spam provider are you using? Is it on-premise or in the cloud? Is the anti-spam device setup to accept mail from your mail server even if you have the send connector configured correctly?

    Opened a support case (email only) with Ubiquiti after not getting it resolved in the community.

    An UNBT employee is on the thread trying to help. Just nothing has resolved the issue yet.

    Disabled a controller setting that makes no difference to any of the other sites on the controller, but at least UBNT had a decent enough reason for it.

    Then they told me to disable antivirus/firewall... That is just a f[moderated] insult after clearly stating both in the thread and in the original email that this controller is running multiple sites and only this one AP is having problems.

    Now to make our first organization, we will make a test one to get started.

    chef-server-ctl org-create SHORTNAME LONGNAME --association_user USERNAME -f filename

    That's the format, here is a real command:

    chef-server-ctl org-create test "Chef Testing NonProd" --association_user scott -f scott.pem
