It's the capability of the device to be hot-swappable. Purchasing one then adding another for some other time for a proper set-up is possible.

jsut upgraded a system from 2.5 something. I made sure the key was set first.

after the upgrade it is gone.

What a pain in the ass.

Where did you add the registry key?
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Nextcloud GmbH\Nextcloud?

I did not add the second key because that was to prevent user override? My users don't have admin rights so even if they attempted ot override, it would never work.

If your nginx reverse proxy is on Fedora, confirm that SELinux isn't denying anything.

sudo tail -f /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep 'denied'

Theoretically there could be a link aggregator somewhere down the line that is putting loads of smaller connections together to create this effect by accident.

@scottalanmiller said in Opinions on POS/label printers?:

Any reason not to look Dymo? We like them a lot.

Does Dymo make standard thermal transfer printers? I thought they only made printers that would print on their own media.

What does this mean? I have Dymos all over, we buy non Dymo branded labels from Amazon and they work fine. Is there something special about that type of label though?

What I meant was that Dymo makes printers that takes Dymo labels. Sure other might make compatible labels but that is not what Dymo had in mind. Dymo sells their printers because they want you to buy their labels (which is where they make money).

Zebra and others on the other hand makes generic printers that take standard size media - just like an office printer takes "letter" size paper.

OK I getcha... like Keurig tried to pull with scanning a barcode on coffee pods - total fail! People will do damned near anything to override your lock-in when possible.

@JasGot said in Exchange 2010 (On-prem) Migration to Hosted Exchange/Office 365 Planning:

@wrx7m How did your migration go? Have you done any more? Just curious what tools (if any) you used......

I'm about to start a migration and need to decide if I am going to do it as a pst import, or a migration from on premise exchange to cloud, and if so, do I use the built-in migration tool at admin.exchange.microsoft.com or a third party tool.

I am interested in what you did and what the pros and cons were.

Thanks!

Ended up doing a migration using the standard MS tools. Been a few years now and am glad I did it.

@RojoLoco and that's what I appreciates about you RL.

@DustinB3403 said in Office 365 Suite - User Licensing T&C:

And what I specifically was hoping someone had a link for was to MS's license or T&C saying that "no you can't share an account for multiple people".

Obviously this doesn't exists since the way the software is procured is per user.

Right, they won't repeat it because they have it in writing already. But you can always show that it is 1) assigned to a named user 2) at the time of procurement you have to agree to a single human.

That's better than any T&C link.

You can however use an unofficial Bitwarden server fork that is free.

Is it a fork? Looks like a separate project.

Yeah, you are right. I didnt know much about it. My coworker uses it for his personal server and really likes it. When I saw this thread I asked him about it again so I could help @Kelly clear things up.

Looks perfectly nice, wish it had more of a "showing it off" website.

He says its actively maintained and follows BW updates pretty frequently.

@G-I-Jones said in Exchange - Different Domain, Same Forest Users:

I went to lunch and came back and boy did this thread get juicy. @scottalanmiller , as always your input is both appreciated and needed. I'm really trying to learn all I can about everything, and you all (to include @Dashrender , @DustinB3403 regularly) come through time and time again to school me. For that I'm eternally grateful.

The grand silver lining to any of this is that I've not only got more experience now with things I've previously never touched (i.e. multi-domain Exchange deployments and AD trusts), but I'm learning too that some things I'm questioning like "why do we need another domain for this?" are apparently more rooted in my own understanding of things than inexperience on my part, which means despite all the failures on his or my own part, I am learning.

I've talked to the boss and he agreed that we adjust the trust and make them the same forest. I'm not going to push the issue any further but am going to try to get as much out of the situation as possible for me.

Once you do that - you'll only have one exchange system. that system will have both .net and .org in it and life will be generally much easier for you.

Or move to Office 365, G Suite, Zoho or some other external email system.

LOL

@Dashrender said in FreePBX update negated/erased an Asterisk Dial Code we had set?:

yes, this would drive my users insane.

It is a setting. Turn it off.

I wouldn't want it off whole sale. I could definitely do that for most users, but my phone does have a display large enough to tell me I have missed calls - and I call those people back, even if they didn't leave a message. More often than not it's beneficial to call them back and solve whatever problem they were having.

@JasGot In my company, we use XCP-ng on 4 small hosts with maybe 10 VMs on them (2 Win RDP servers, few Linux fileservers...). We manage them with XCP-ng center (Windows app) in LAN and with Xen Orchestra remotely. We are very satisfied with XCP and management is pretty simple. We are no experts but beginners.
We cloned some VMs, copied them from host to host, added additoinal storage after installation...

I tried to install KVM few times and I find it confusing to setup and manage.

@Pete-S said in VMware Community Homelabs:

5 billion hits per day is Google type traffic

You are confusing 5 billion hits/searches per day with requests. Not the same thing.

Yes, you're right, I was confused. I read "requests" but thought "page views".

@Obsolesce said in Finding specific file type that has no extension:

Is there anything inside the file that can tell you? For example, if you write a script that cats each file or whayever and looks for specific string, then moves it if it matches.

I don't know what those files are, so ya. Just thinking out loud without any info.

No, because they are just ancient like ~20 + years old, no extension or really anything to hit on. Apple still supports Postscript Type 1 fonts, but nothing else does.

I managed to get it to work with what I needed with the above.

Additionally I created two reports 1) listing all of he postscript type 1 fonts and 2) listing truetype and opentype fonts.

So now we can build a list of things that needs to get upgraded.

To find the non-extension'd postscript type 1 fonts I used

find . -type f -d -empty >> old-crap.txt

To find the modern fonts I used

find . -name '*.ttf' -d >> modern-font.txt and just replaced .ttf with .otf, .otc, .ttc, .tte and .dfont and appended the same modern-font.txt file for each of those.

To come back around to the initial question, I'll throw GLPI + FusionInventory into the mix as a decent replacement for SpiceWorks. You keep the ability to have your whole IT environment managed and documented in a single system (Equipment, users, ticketing, contracts, contacts etc etc....)

t only applies the setting when linked to the OU of the user

We'll according to that screenshot, it IS a user setting.

Yeah. I want all users or a group of users who login to the RD00 server (and only this server) to have this GPP modifying HKCU to apply. Is it even possible?

Yes, it's possible.

Ensure the GPO is applying to the user. For example, if User1 is in the Company > Users OU, then make sure that GPO is either in Company or Users OU and the Users OU is inheriting the GPO. Verify with RSOP and gpresult that user is getting the policy.

I think, but it's been awhile since I did much with AD GP... (like you are in the screenshot) use item-level targeting to the server name.

Test it by having one of the in-scope users log on to a difference server, run gpresult and see if it's applying, then try it on the targeted server and see if it applies then.
