My company isn't sold on subscription models, especially when Office 365 was going to run is 20K a year or so, so we just continue to get individual Office installs and just pay for Exchange Online only.

That's a confusing way to state that. Office 365 is the name of the subscription licensing scheme and Hosted Exchange is the most popular component of that.

It's that MS Office via Office 365 licensing was going to be $20K a year and that you are using Office 365 for Exchange only.

Right...sorry...if we were to have added Office to that, then, yes, 20K a year on average.

Found it. It was on a random SQL server.

I'm a fan of Brent Ozar http://www.brentozar.com/blog/ though my knowledge of SQL Server is very limited. He sounds like he knows what he's talking about but I wouldn't know if he does or not. I haven't paid for any of their training videos, but I've watched a few of the free ones.

Just got it installed on my MacBook Pro.

You can transplant procs from one motherboard to another, right?

Yes, as long as the sockets are compatible.

This is RAID 1. RAID 1 with a quintuple mirror. This would border on the crazy. Even with spinning rust, a standard RAID 1 (two way mirror) has a failure rate lower than 1/160,000 years. Each additional drive in the mirror takes that up orders of magnitude.

With the first option I was just mentioning an arbitrary, contrived example of another span configuration the controller would let me do in its Raid 10 config wizard in hopes that if there was a flaw in my 2-drives-per-span thinking someone would point it out to me. Everything you've said makes sense, thank you.

Do you have any NICs in the expansion slots? I don't know if you can disable their booting ability, and even if you can, they probably still need to load something at boot time that is separate from the MB BIOS/UEFI.

I think it's just a single Intel 4 jack network daughter card and not in an expansion slot, I'll look into that, thanks.

@Reid-Cooper said:

I do not believe that turning off the virtualization capability of the processor via the BIOS will change the performance of the processor. My understanding of that ability to lock that down is simply that it is a security feature or a control feature, not a performance one.

That's helpful, thanks. I guess I'll leave it on.

FWIW, found the same item from NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883158230

Yep they are basicly the same as our conference computers. You can get them with dual display port not sure if that's standard or not.

I have resorted to hot-linking to FB

Work stuff is kind of boring

@scottalanmiller Management requirement is to have a test and feasible study on exchange inhouse with 50 users. Sure i will parallely build a Zimbra server and provide the same to management for a comparison

I think that that is a good idea. We have used both and always preferred Zimbra. But we use Exchange now because it is hosted with Office 365. If it was not MS hosted, we wouldn't consider it.

Same here. If we had to have Email in house I would probably be running Zimbra.

What kind of authentication is the daloradius / freeradius back-end using?

Can you test the authentication to the freeradius server from another server at Location B?

Not sure how to answer that, daloradius is just a web based front end of freeradius to manage users. What I think is for some reason the ovpn server is not communicating with dalo server.

@scottalanmiller its ubuntu which is my issue too. I am so comfortable with centos, and ufw firewall is something new to me. Not even sure if this thing is enabled or disabled! 🙂

XenServer supports SD Card installs. Not sure about Xen

XS is just a packaging of Xen. So anything XS supports, Xen has to have supported. Xen is completely flexible and can be used anyway that you want, it itself doesn't have the same concept of "supported" like XS does.

I would also like to mention that within IIS there is only one website. It is configured to work with both domains. So in reality onlinebanking.olddomain.org and onlinebanking.newdomain.com are pulled from the same site in IIS. The only difference being that the certificate is now assigned to onlinebanking.newdomain.com.

True! Just tried and yes, it loses focus and nothing works after that till i do an Alt+Tab to come back!
