Trying to tidy the server room.
I really don't think we need 60+ Power cables
since everything new has them. -
Orthodontist appointment for my 11yo.

Just setup a wireshark packet capture for a phone. There is a Sonicwall for a firewall here, so I'm blaming that even tho we don't know why it's having intermittent issues yet.

Remembering that Netplan is the default tool for configuring networks rather than NetworkManager on Ubuntu server.

Netplan
Getting the formatting correct can be a nightmare, prefer the old way of editing the ip address settings.

Ha! I need to use Ubuntu more often and remember some of the little gotchas like this. I'm finally somewhat familiar with using nmcli without a reference for basic stuff, and it came as a small shock to see it not available by default on Ubuntu 20.10.

Just out of interest what are most of america's different states and Canada using in regards to internet connections? Over here in the UK we are mostly FTC now, which is copper from the property to the street cabinet then fibre to the exchange. We are still limited by distance to the cabinet in regards to what speeds we get. We also still have ADSL available, but most are not using that these days. My speed for example is now 56/10. At my old address I was right next to the cabinet and would get 70/20. Just curious if you are mostly FTTP over there.

In US, Spectrum Cable Internet here 200/12 for about $60. ATT has talked about FTC in my home area for 10+ years. You can tell by my current connection how well that is going.
EDIT: In my area, ATT only has FTC installed in select areas which are new developments and upper-upper middle class areas. A couple individuals I know in both area are paying $45-$55 for 300/20 and up.

Looking at re-writing another script.
We have eight scripts to install printers, depending on which agency you are in. Looking to combine them into one. Either with a menu to select from, or based on domain signed in with...
Only a few select sites/domains have it set with GPO. -

I don’t/can’t access GPO. The state has every aspect of MS server and ADUC split into different groups. And considering the 40 Agencies and such,.. its way way to split up. There are thousands of groups per Agencies.

So you're breaking the rules by making scripts then... shadow IT inside IT... nice!
