The IT benefit to this entire thing is, by enabling this feature, IT will now have a backup of the configuration of all the phones. Even if a user changes a button. Now a phone can die and IT will simply change the MAC on the provisioning server and put the new phone on the desk. To the business, the benefit is to let users control their own buttons without IT getting involved. Buttons can easily be programmed by a user simply holding it down until the menu pops up. It takes very little instruction to teach users to pick Speed Dial or BLF and enter the number or extension. For most small shops, this doesn't matter in the first place. They rarely change anything. But for an organization over 20, it is very common to have users all needing different configurations on their phone buttons. Their Boss, their Queue Pause, their specific parking lots, etc.

@stacksofplates said in Install OpenSupports on Fedora 29: It does look nice though which can't be said for a lot of them. That is the reason I looked at it. The view was solid.

@Emad-R said in Installing MS SQL Server Express on CentOS: Et me guess it is much faster on Linux than on Windows server No idea, but it is one less Windows Server license needed. Also MS SQL Server Express works well for many tasks.

@tim_g said in Use DHCP option 43 on Windows Server to tell UniFi devices how to find the controller: @jaredbusch I see, so just setting option 43 on whatever DHCP server you use is all you need. Nothing hardware specific is required on the network. Correct

And still works on my install that was 27 then upgraded to 28 and now upgraded to 29.

Guide works with Fedora 29. As always @JaredBusch guide works.

Well crap, I never added pictures to step 2. I will try to get to that later this afternoon.

@travisdh1 said in How to install SuiteCRM 7.8.3 on Fedora 25 Minimal: Just thought I'd report back that these instructions are still working for Version 7.9.7 Sugar Version 6.5.25 (Build 344) Just installed a local copy to see if it'll meet our needs for user tracking and such. Will probably pay for an instance on Hostadillo if it does. Guess it's my day to resurrect old how-to threads. Not bad timing. I am installing this for a client this evening.

@wirestyle22 said in Install Nextcloud 11.03 on Fedora 25 Minimal: @jaredbusch out of curiousity how did you go about learning everything you know in linux? A mix of books/documentation/homelab? Any recommendations book-wise if that's something you've done? WTF, I jsut know everything. FFS, get with the program. Seriously, I do not book learn well. I learn by tinkering. So I learned by breaking shit. Repeatedly. It costs a large amount of time to learn things this way. But it is what I do. Book learning generally is no different for most. It all takes time.

@JaredBusch said in How to Install Fedora 25 Minimal: @black3dynamite said in How to Install Fedora 25 Minimal: Unlike installing Linux Integration Services, Hot-Add support is not enabled by default after installing hyperv-daemons. Create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/100-balloon.rules. You may use any other desired name for the file. Add the following content to the file: SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", ATTR{state}="online" Reboot the system to enable Hot-Add support. See Note 8 on Supported CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux virtual machines on Hyper-V You mean for dynamic memory to work? Yes, dynamic memory for ballooning and hot-add.

FYI, screens have changed a bit for Version 14

@jaredbusch Good to know. I was thinking about doing this but I wasn't sure if it was truly still in beta or Sangoma was not keeping up to date.

@JaredBusch said in ONLYOFFICE NextCloud Integration Documentation failure.: @travisdh1 said in ONLYOFFICE NextCloud Integration Documentation failure.: @scottalanmiller said in ONLYOFFICE NextCloud Integration Documentation failure.: @travisdh1 said in ONLYOFFICE NextCloud Integration Documentation failure.: Pulled a screenshot, but didn't get things setup in the home lab yet. You should upload a picture. Whatever Google stuff you have here doesn't work. Huh, it's showing up fine for me. Anyone else not seeing the screenshot? This is not the first time I have called you out on this. FFS, last time I told you to just copy past from clipboard. That hadn't worked for me once and I got into that old bad habit again, dagnabit.

Thanks for this post, @JaredBusch . I got the previous month's bill from TPX and am going to start going through it to see how much we can save by switching from our PRI. We have to upgrade (replace) our Mitel/ShoreTel Shoregear T1, so that will cost a few grand.

@JaredBusch hi, I'm definitely resetting the Http server after every processing, I even started it again. I didn't succeed I checked opcache with a small Php script. Opcache works successfully But Nextcloud does not see it.

@tim_g said in Installing Wordpress on CentOS 7 Minimal: @jaredbusch said in Installing Wordpress on CentOS 7 Minimal: setenforce permissive; Setup SELinux permissions semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t '/opt/yourdomain(/.*)?' restorecon -R /opt/yourdomain semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/opt/yourdomain/wp-content(/.*)?' restorecon -R /opt/yourdomain/wp-content I run my servers with SELinux running in Enforcing mode, not permissive. So if it's in enforcing, WordPress will not run correctly. Example, you can't update, and the Add Plugins page gives a connection error (it's because httpd can't write correctly due to selinux enforcing). Instead of running SELinux in permissive system-wide, you can keep it in Enforcing mode, and issue the following command: semanage permissive -a httpd_t The reason I use that one instead of by directory, is because I don't know how to do that... well I do, but I didn't have time yet to see what all directories need to be written to for updating and plugins pages and such to work correctly. I'll add that here some other time when I get a chance to look in to it more. I only said that for install message you remove it back to enforcing

@brianlittlejohn said in Outbound call routing with FreePBX 13: Is it best to setup a second route for e911 usage? I always do. Because then I can mark the route as such.

@JaredBusch I see that now. I'm not making plans to make any kind of changes with Asterisk's behavior. I was simply geeking out on the questions of why and how.

Justy a note, you need to create an OpenCNAM account and fund it if you do not have one. https://www.opencnam.com/register I recommend OpenCNAM because it is generally cheaper than your carrier CID charges. If you recall from the VoIP.ms setup, they charge $0.008 per lookup. OpenCNAM is half that at $0.0039 per lookup. https://www.opencnam.com/pricing

Often sales people and management will ask, "How do I check my voicemail from outside?" I always recommend that they enable voicemail to email, but for those that want it, you can set up a silent option in the IVR. What I mean by silent option is that you will add another option to the IVR, but you will not announce that option in the recorded audio. Add another entry and choose the Destination category of Feature Code Admin and then select Dial Voicemail <*98>

It should be noted, that when you create a new extension, FreePBX will create user conference rooms automatically if you create a new User Manager user at the same time.

@u2communications said in Setting up a SIP trunk in FreePBX 13: If you find yourself still trying to get incoming calls working after several hours (like me), be advised that the default DID settings on voip.ms will not work. You merely have to set up a sub-account and make sure to set the authentication type as user/password authentication. Add your DID's to the sub-account and authenticate with the accountnumber_subaccount convention and use the password you created when setting up the sub-account. I have never experienced an issue using the primary account on VoIP.ms. I highly recommend against it, always. But, I have never had a problem using it. Also, welcome to ML.
