    @travisdh1 Hardwired to the switch. In the same room. It is just the default NFS from "Add Windows Features" menu. After it was enabled, I was able to see the share immediately.

    That's your issue, the NFS from "Add Windows Features" is known to be slow.

    Yeah, famously a bad implementation.

    We use Trello and like it a lot, but we use it for a coding process, not job tracking.

    The only risk here is having a laptop stolen and giving the attacker more time to try to breach a system with cached credentials.

    You can mitigate that by using bit locker and requiring MFA on all important accounts (should be the standard anyway).

    @Pete-S said in Fanvil Availability and Suport in the US:

    Fanvil is readily available in many regions and the problem people have had is not with the hardware. It's firmware upgrades that breaks things, intermittent problems, provisioning stops working, DSS keys that stops working etc. All related to software.

    Consensus among those that deploy both Yealink and Fanvil has been to get Yealink if possible as Fanvil causes a lot more support issues over time.

    But hopefully Fanvil is getting better so it will be interesting to see what you guys think in a year or so.

    That’s why I am buying one to test. Since warranty/support is supposed to be available now, that means it is time to test.

    Oh-kay . Yes - you are right... and yet you are (slightly) wrong.

    In this case, while Libre Office is ''content flow'' as opposed to ''page based'' The project is page based - something I was doing, but didn't know exactly how to explain.

    thusly;
    https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/91386/can-i-change-the-page-order-in-writer/

    From your question, your document is "page-based". Go to the logical consequence of your choice and store your "pages" as independent documents. To guarantee a common look-and-feel, I'd recommend to design them from a common template.

    Then, you create your "synthesis" document (the one meant for printing) as a master document which references all your "page" documents. Read the LO User's guide if you aren't familiar with the concept.

    In the master document, the included "pages" can be reordered from the Navigator panel (F5) with "up" and "down" buttons after selecting the "page" you want to move. In essence, it is equivalent to @RGB-es copy-and-paste solution without the risk of incorrectly selecting page content or overwriting other text.

    This is basically what I had done in Word...

    @biggen said in NVMe and RAID?:

    But what about the server case itself? What models are you putting these components in? I'd probably do a tower for the initial build.

    Pedestal: Silversone CS381.
    Rack Chassis: We go barebones from a variety of vendors. Intel, TYAN, ASRock Rack, and others
    Rack Chassis Standalone: Chenbro comes to mind. Silverstone also makes them. We've looked into iStar and Rosewill though never jumped on board.

    With that as a known environment - cell coverage - you could very easily offer Soft Phones

    I have this on my cell phone. It works really well with the exception of battery drain. 😞 I only run it when needed.

    Before anyone tells me it doesn't take much battery, My phone lasts about 36 hours between charges. I EXPECT it to. If the charge lasts less than 24 hours, I go nuts and address the apps using power.

    For those who frequently place their phone on a charger, it may not be an issue.

    Don't lose sight of the fact that I do really like the softphone......

    Oh - very much so ,.. the soft phone would chew through my battery as well. But - it's also a small price to pay for that extra..

    Sorry, but this is a case of not running the right OS. Wrong tool for the job if you will.

    If you need Skype for business, you need Windows. It's as simple as that. Everything else is just a fragile workaround and an exercise in frustration.

    Or you could wait until Microsoft have replaced it completely with Teams. Which, if I understand correctly, they've already decided to do.

    Or perhaps get one of the Yealink Skype for Business phones. Don't know how it works but I'm guessing it doesn't need anything else.

    @JasGot said in Finding owner of gmail address:

    Is it possible to find out who owns a gmail address?

    No official way, no. Mostly because they don't collect any information when you sign up. But also because they will never disclose anything even if they knew.

    The VM was only meant for huge implementations,

    E.g. Mitel doesn't consider their solution to be meant for businesses until they are "huge". They view their own small customers has hobbies.

    hi, thanks for sharing this guide, would like to ask, what port does ppa:certbot use? im running nginx and its already using 80 & 443. i need to find a way to renew the cert when using Cloudflare as the common way(certbot renew) will not work. thank you.

    There are certbot options to use the running server (Nginx in this case.) But I agree with Jared, better to use DNS.

    @dbeato said in Resentment to Purchasing Software - Split From Unrelated Topic on IT Professionals:

    However Windows, Mac OS and any Linux Flavor have their own risks so for me it is about mitigating considering both the usability and risks.

    See, this is what I mean. Everything has risks. Risk evaluation involves evaluating how big and common the risks are, what they are likely to do, what the impact is.

    If you just say "there is risk", all risk evaluation is useless. IT has to evaluate and consider the risks. Just saying that you have to be afraid of everything because everything has risks and treating it all the same is the same as completely ignoring it. "When everything is a risk, nothing is a risk."

    It is understand what you think but saying and doing are two different things. So yes, most things have risks and nothing is perfect but you action it on prevention and being proactive you do no leave it to chance.

    Unless you have the Vultr Firewall in place restriciting access to your home IP or some software firewall running on the instance, you have setup a fucking public DNS server. What else would you expect to happen?

    Great - that's an extra $10 a month unless I can run firewalld on the system and be fine.

    um wut?

    Admittedly - I may have misspoke and that is the DDOS not the firewall. I have to go back and look through.

    $10? Should be $3.50 on Vultr

    This instance is indeed $3.50
