but I wanted with this command you sent

The ultimate in porn surfing. 😉

@dustinb3403 About 1 to 4 days.

That's what I was thinking, thanks!

@black3dynamite works.

Thanks. I was looking for this article long time. Cheers.

@Dashrender said in Cannot install Windows updates Help Please!:

This has been the biggest hold for me getting anything newer than 1909 on many devices - that said, I just don't get the option to install anything newer through Windows Updates

I've seen that, too.

@DustinB3403 said in Active Directory - User Attribute RFID/HID Badge:

@Dashrender I'm a 3rd party to the end customer here. Acting as the middle man as the customer's IT department wanted to engage outside support to try and vet different products.

I candidly told the customer that while this product will work, it won't work with all of the features they want without some substantial changes to their infrastructure and that the support (at least from this vendor) is pretty awful.

The simple approach here is to not integrate RFID/HID's to the system and simply use the AD Integration with the built-in QR codes that each member is assigned.

Just because something may be supported, doesn't imply that it is support.

Except in this case the vendor very clearly has stated they support you adding custom attributes within AD.

Besides a comport setting difference (which isn't relevant) I can't see a difference.

The right hand side is the one that works.

For some reason, it would not downgrade like normal within chocolatey

So I did an uninstall, reinstall of version 1.4.6, then pinned version 1.4.6 so it will not upgrade when the daily task fires that uprgades all packages.

choco uninstall zerotier-one -y choco install zerotier-one --version=1.4.6 -y choco pin add -n=zerotier-one

Of course I did it all via ScreenConnect.

@NetworkNerd

My MeshCentral VM is in Vultr.

Same here. Way better than AWS, Azure, or GCP for standard workloads like this.

Just for home use, it could likely sit in a free AWS Lightsail instance if it is small enough.

@G-I-Jones said in GPO to create scheduled task to run netlogon batch script:

Did you ever figure this out?

No and the person who was working on it has been OOO all day, so its not a priority either.

@DustinB3403 said in Unifi Controller - Reinstall and adopt APs:

@travisdh1 Yeah I'm thinking what happened is someone setup a Unifi Controller on windows at some point, then they engaged us and said yeah we don't have access to the AP's but its all still working. So they were sold a physical cloud key, and still the AP's weren't adopted.

Assuming you're at an MSP now, do you host a controller that you could just build a new site for and adopt the APs too?

This is what @Bundy-Associates and @NTG do.

That is the plan, but for now this is just janitorial work.

I just confirmed, this system is only using the Intel controller, and not SS.

@scottalanmiller said in Changing Installation Location for MicroSIP Installed via Chocolatey:

By default, installing MicroSIP using Chocolatey causes the install to go to an inappropriate data folder location and is only available for the admin installing user, rather than for the end users of the Windows system. Does anyone have any experience or ideas in changing the installation location so that system users can actually use MicroSIP when installed and maintained using choco?

Asking for @Dashrender and @romo as well.

I think this might work:
choco install microsip -ia "'/D=C:\SomeDirectory'"

choco install microsip -ia "'/D=C:\temp'"

Did install it to C:\temp for me

Is it working for non-admin users?

Yep, I can run the .exe from my C:\temp. You'll probably have to create a shortcut for a user tho.

yep, I just tried it - I pushed to c:\program files\microsip

and non admins can run it.

and you're right, the shortcut is put on the installing admin's desktop, and nothing in the start menu.

MicroSIP - open source portable SIP softphone based on PJSIP stack for Windows OS.

https://www.microsip.org/

It says right on the website it’s a portable app, why would you expect a desktop icon or anything on the start menu?

There is a portable version, sure. But there is also a non-portable version.
