Doing some work from home, so looking into Windows/Unifi/DC logging

So on this what do people use? ELK Stack, Graylog, Solarwinds etc. Zabbix maybe?

Sounds good. Maybe Grafana? Everything you mentioned is a decent choice (except Solarwinds, never used it)

Finally back to work. Took a couple weeks off to be a stay at home dad while my wife recovers from a total shoulder replacement surgery.

Same, it's a great list and then shitty Solarwinds thrown in. LOL I would never do business with them, ever. Highly malicious vendor that I'd worry about allowing into my shop. We have a cease and desist order with them and they are only allowed to speak with us through lawyers because they are so aggressive and malicious. We nearly had to sue them.

odd.. I work from home ; Get more done, try new things get ahead - get told I can only put what I actually worked on my time card worked 7 hours yesterday on customer sites and new installs inbetween working on the server 2019 install and AD set up.

Then I work in the office, I sit around , play on ML, research AD. Reach out to customers, take calls, Work on new installs but the fact that I'm "in the office" I put 8 hour full day on my time card even though I Did more yesterday at home then ive done today thus far.

Uhh..

Not odd, the entire industry has known for decades that you send people home to work, you bring them to the office for politics and to serve the egos of managers. Nearly everyone is way more productive at home. That's why nearly all good companies don't just allow it, they encourage it.

as that may be true: i was saying odd because of hours and how I have to put less hours on my time card because I worked from home.

That's just bad management by your boss. A full day of work is a full day of work, doesn't matter where you were.

Exactly, just another reason why he needs to get the hell out of this role.

I can only put what "work I did" so basically Billable hours only.

Comparable to saying "Oh hey, I know you're only listed as a part time employee even though you work 60 hours a week, thanks for claiming to only have worked 20 hours"
