    It's a trust thing I guess. I hope that one managing a project like Elastix to do a pretty good or better job at securing their website, and I'd feel more comfortable pulling the hash from them than from a file sitting on the same file server as the actual file, especially since it's a hosting provider, not the content creator.

    A better job than SourceForge? I'm not sure what you are looking for. SourceForge is a huge player and the source of the majority (I think) of the world's open source projects. At least those of any size. This is how a huge amount of open source is done.

    SouceForge really is the content creator, in a way, here. Remember, this is open source.

    It does a ton. It's been the leader of Microsoft's extensive platform for over a decade. It's their application and integration platform.

    Unmaintained adware, it therefore appears, can therefore be wrapped in more adware if SourceForge feels like it. But wrappers can only be applied to other projects if SourceForge asks the developers who all-but-abandoned it.

    I did get the one with the PASSCODE to reset...but the iPhone5s still wants the original iTunes account...I'll try some of these suggestions...it isn't as pressing as it was earlier as I did get the users original problem fixed and he didn't need to get into a spare...

    Yes, but tracking is rarely (an really never should be) done from the browser level.

    The comment it was in reference to was using a history viewer to track.

    As for the budget questions - I know this will blow your mind - but we don't deal in real budgets.

    Actually that is something that I believe strongly in - that budgets are bad. But one way or another, overspending in IT will probably come back to bite IT. Even if there is no budget, do you not fear that management will be like "but we just spend an extra $600 per person to shut them up, what is IT doing ?!?!"

    This assumes that they KNOW they spent $600 to shut them up... Heck honestly I didn't know two year old machines could be had so cheap! So they sure as heck don't.

    Management doesn't know the price difference? Is this because they were not told or because they were not presented options?

    The options I presented were between Levono and HP - pretty close in price actually. So yeah they are unaware (as was I) of the used option.

    @scottalanmiller well, I thought I was part of the update as a_5mith tested a different theme. Forgetting that he(/she/it?) has access to more than one instance, I thought that it was a setting in the user profile. (I have also seen user selectable themes on other boards.)

    Hey buddy. Yeah the lavender shot was from my own forum. Changing themes isn't possible through NodeBB yet, it was mentioned earlier on by me. But I ended up doing style changes in css rather than creating a whole new theme. 👍

    It's less me having a problem with this cost, and more the administrator. Management often doesn't see value in something they can't see directly having an effect on production or productivity.

    If it breaks after it has been EOL'd can they still next day you one to replace it with?

    If I'm under contract, they'll be sending me something.

    Documentation is in a share, not on a wiki or other repository?

    How does that work when the share is down/gone?

    Well its mirrored on two different file servers using DFS. There are on separate hosts. Both Servers are backed up using Veeam and we keep 7 days of full backups for each server.

    Not 100% safe, but it would take some serious issues to lose access.

    From this thread (Error Code 13) it appears that some of the coding is a bit harsh in that it wants to install in a location not generally used for installing applications. And thus causes the issue.

    Those are pretty normal locations for installing user apps that aren't system wide.

    Now if only one of those three actually tested it, lol. Or @Lakshmana could test it and demonstrate to his boss that it is gone very easily.
