@scottalanmiller well I just tried to set this up and failed, but I did not read any instructions, just clicked through menus. I will break our the manual this afternoon and try agaiN.

Wow, that's good to know. Now something that you would guess would happen at all. Thanks for sharing.

Is one of those a VM? the hypervisor could be filtering stuff

The VM is where I'm trying to access my main physical workstation from. I doubt ESXi is filtering anything.

I don't have any filtering setup that I know of at least.

Ok, the other thing I did was lower the number of posts per page for the main page. It's gone down from 4 to 2. That did improve system load times.

Oh the thread, I see.

One of the main reasons I was thinking Cisco was due to the ability to get in SFPs to hook into anything I needed. Core switches, straight fiber into my servers, who knows what I could do.

The Mikrotik gear has multiple SFPs plus switching gear to handle anything. So jacking into my Cisco gear over fiber is a snap, or I can go up to 10G and get real hard core.

And one of these:

I can run anything at that setup, it will never choke on bandwidth. Time to whip out the AMEX, I've got a purchase to make.

I'm not sure if I had heard of ownCloud previously but am curious. Searching shows a .ORG and .COM.

From @scottalanmiller comment, it appears to be .COM - though I see it's an openSource project.

How would something like this compare to using SharePoint? Or would it sit side by side?

ownCloud is open source and available commercially hosted by the oem. They are here in MangoLassi too @kelleybrooks

It's not SharePoint, that's an application platform. ownCloud is a cloud storage system, a la DropBox or OneDrive.

at ten users AD is normally overkill

That's why we have Samba. And, with Samba 4, you should be able to integrate the box into O365's AD structure. SSO anyone?

@thanksaj in my example I would need to find an new unopened Asus PT6 motherboard. At this time only thing available is new opened boxes from Hong Kong and China. There are some used ones available too.

NOS could be found as clearanced items since they are new items but old stock that most people don't want. Like a brand new 8GB harddrive from Maxtor.

Ok, got it. Refurbished might be your best bet for that class of stuff then.

@JaredBusch
I had the wrong version installed.. Support sent me:

ME ServiceDesk (Plus)

@JaredBusch Thanks man..fixed that.

Do you know where to add the code snippet?

I used to be command line only,.. in DOS.

It's been so many years,.. I don't know if I can forge my brain back to using a term.

There we go, we got it.

Actually it was a bug in NodeBB. And now there appears to be another bug. Looks like we are hitting a number of issues with the 0.5.3 update. We've seen YouTube embedding break and now links are breaking.

That is like saying Raid is a type of backup..... 😄
Sorry that I am late to the party, my bus broke down.

Whoa, Tex is here!

The Solarwinds Real Time Bandwidth Monitor is what I was thinking of.

I don't remember what doesn't support it, but that's true, from what I was told and what I have experienced. I can't speak for the KB article. Which article ID?
