@gjacobse said in Vultr Mobile App:

I can update, even rescan the files to update the file dB all from ssh- which I do via Termius.

These aren't things that the app would allow anyway. It's a Vultr app, not an SSH app.

Since you are connected to the printer via USB. Disable plug and play. And then delete all those extra printers.

Turns out I had a snapshot, restoring it and then regrouping...

@stacksofplates said in Looking to Buy a SAN:

I went to a Dr's office before my surgery and the hospital has a giant network where they can give you results and everything through their app/web portal.

We have that too. Our results and your records are available in our patient portal - a website, no app at this time.

The dr I went to literally said "oh we don't use apps here" and they required the hospital to fax them the information. It took like 3 weeks to get the info to them because they kept screwing up. There may be people out there that like the offices that are like that but I'm definitely not one of them.

We're not that bad, no where near. We have access to a local system called NeHII - it's a health interchange between all Nebraska hospital system - and it's an opt-out system for the patients (and you're barely made aware of it when visiting a hospital or any affiliated clinical office).
Additionally, since my providers have privileges to almost all of the local health systems around town, our staff have direct access to those medical records systems to pull data without needing to make a request and waiting on whatever form of data transfer might happen. Of course, that said, the data is typically extracted as a PDF and uploaded as such to our EHR, so no discreet data, but at least we generally have fast access to it.

@dbeato said in Web filtering for SMB:

I have continued to use Untangle, Pi-Hole and Yes NGFW as well. So it depends what you want to use, if DNS you know people can circumvent them outright but it is all up to you.

He said his goal was accidents. DNS filtering is perfect for accidents.

I know this is the "don't do this but do something else" answer, but just in case you've not thought of it, some places use satellite phones for this purpose.

@scottalanmiller

Thanks - I will proceed without using ZFS - I prefer hardware RAID.

Tim

ZFS is perfectly fine with hardware RAID, if you like ZFS' features otherwise (like zsend is nice) then there's no reason to avoid it. If you don't plan to use any unique features, then XFS is my "go to" choice by default. Very fast, very stable.

@manxam said in Remote Access for home user:

@fuznutz04 : Keep an eye out for the "hidden" hibernate that doesn't show up under "Plan settings" (only sleep and display). I've seen multiple systems that have "Hibernate after" configured under "Sleep" in the advanced settings as default.

There's also the problem where some systems become broken and once a system goes to sleep, it will continue going to sleep no matter what after something like 2 mins of non use. Rebooting fixes it, until it goes to sleep again... there is a fix somewhere in these threads too, reg fix.

Hahah, yeah. I was part of that thread too having been bit by it myself. Thankfully I haven't seen that behaviour in over a year.

Oh Cool! Thanks Scott!

http://tomaskalabis.com/wordpress/vmware-cant-unmountremove-datastore-in-use-or-file-system-is-busy/

Thank you. I hadn't thought to check the logs, which the Spiceworks link mentions.

OK, we have success!

Steps to resolve:

On the DC I was having issues with at the main site, I stopped the KDC Service (Kerberos Key Distribution Center Service)

Then I ran this:

NETDOM RESETPWD /Server: <Domain Controller Name> /UserD:<Domain Admin Username> /PasswordD:<Domain Admin Password> Rebooted the server.

After this, all of the strange event viewer errors in the DNS log, AD log, etc were gone. I can now successfully replicate across sites as well as join PCs to the domain. I'm not sure why this happened in the first place, but this fixed it.

Thanks for all the help!

Thanks will have a look tomorrow 😊

@Jimmy9008 said in Windows Failover Clustering... what are your views and why?:

The point of the CSV was that as we increase our proprietary tool over the next few years, there is room to do so. If that space is full of data that doesn't need HA, we have lost the opportunity to use it.

I'm in camp 2 on this.

It is a waste to use the space when it is not needed. It was not engineered to be used any other way Just because you can do something (option 1) does not mean you should. People wanting option 1 are just being lazy. Fuck that.

Do as @scottalanmiller suggested and get the stakeholders to officially sign off on changing the budget expansion cost to be used now instead.

Do not let this just be a conversation. Put it in writing. The lazy people will back down.

Until now computer games are fascinating!

@AshKetchum said in Is RDP viable practice for LAN remote session?:

Is RDP viable practice for LAN remote session? I know RDP is a big NO over internet, but is it a good security practice to use RDP in LAN? Jumping from one server to another using RDP is quick and easy.

Curious - What OS are you going to use this for?

This is for use on the LAN. Really any reasonable use case is just fine.
