      TRUE! Wow... some serious lack of BASIC I.T. Knowledge...

      Eh, I don't really care about that. We are all in a constant state of learning. I'm not in a position to judge anyone

      Right, but claiming to be an expert and putting this as a basis of being an expert is laughable.

    • Known issue with Unifi Access points and 4.3.24.11355 FW

      We started having problems with multiple sites where computers connected via Unifi AP's and 4.3.24.11355 firmware can't get an IP.

      I found out that there is a known issue with the current firmware.

      The work around is to change the SSID name, provision, and then change it back and provision. Unifi also suggested these settings:

      WPA Personal: ON
      Block Lan to WLAN multicast data: ON
      Fast Roaming: OFF
      Encryption: AES/CCMP only
      Enable: GTK Rekeying 3600 seconds
      Enable Multicast enhancement: ON
      DTIM mode 2 G 3 and 5G3
      5G Data Rate: ON
      5G data rate: 54Mbps

      Sends beacons at 6Mbps

      Or you can of course downgrade the firmware until there is a fixed version.

    • New Client Onboarding Template

      Does anyone out there use a template for onboarding new clients?

      Asking them for passwords, contact information, etc.

      If so, can you share please?

    • RE: More toxic clients / people

      It's so weird, especially after learning other cultures now that I don't live in the USA to watch how people act in the USA.

      Such entitlement. It's nuts.

      @CCWTech said in Is it legal? Windows 10 or 11 as a server:

      @Obsolesce Yeah, it's pretty clear to us. We shared a link to this post with the client so hopefully he sees this. We shared the same info with him but he keeps trying to interperet it in a way that supports his opinion, even though it's extreemly clearly written.

      FFS this is not new. Tell your "client" that you will be happy to report them to Microsoft.

      I put client in quotes because they are acting as their own IT. Why are they bothering to hire you.

      Report them to the BSA
      https://reporting.bsa.org/r/report/add.aspx?src=us&ln=en-us

      BSA (from what I can see, doesn't cover Microsoft) but Microsoft has their direct reporting method.

      But yes, he's become so toxic that we just can't deal with him as a 'client'. Way to many good clients out there to worry about instead of him.

    • More toxic clients / people

      It seems to me that we have delt with more toxic clients in the last 2 years than the previous 12 years in business. I don't know if it's the pandemic or what has changed but have people just generally become jerks?

    • Is it legal? Windows 10 or 11 as a server

      Use case:
      Small veterinary office with less than 10 computers, about 7 employees.

      Software is AVImark. A veterinary records managment program. It requires a shared network path and also to run Guardian (a service that runs on the server in order to make the program work.).

      Is Windows 10 / 11 legal to use as a server in this case? (The software vendor AVImark) says it is.

    • RE: Resume work

      @travisdh1 I've been searching on Indeed, Monster, Linkedin, and DICE. But so far I have only had 2 interviews. One went well, made it to final rounds. The other went really well, and they said they thought I deserved more money than the job offered and wanted to see if I was interested in other higher paying jobs with the company...I said yes, but not to count me out for this one. Then I got the "you haven't been selected" letter.

      This was from a fortune 500 company so it wasn't "Jimbo's or Pat's". I'm really trying nearly anything really.

      I get called by 'recruiters' in India who can barely speak english but not much else. I guess it's a tough market right now.

      It's funny, I'm not used to applying for a job and not getting it. In the past if I applied for 3 places I usually had offers from 2.

      @CCWTech said in Resume work:

      I know that there are a lot of 'fake' jobs out there, but I am not getting any hits despite my eperience and wonder if it's my resume. Can anyone suggest a resume writing company that won't break the bank?

      1. I do not think that you resume is the main reason that you are not "getting any hits" (although you can and should improve it). I have done hundreds of interviews (as employer) and I would call you if I offer the job that you want (sysadmin, helpdesk manager...)
      2. You should describe your experience in CCWtech in more detail where it is in your favor. For example, you can name more tools that you are expereinced with (Powershell, KVM, VMWare, HyperV, XCP-NG, Ansible, Chef, Puppet.....)
        It would be great if you can list projects or achievements that you have done.
      3. Have you managed other people? If you have, it should be clearly stated in resume. I do not see it in your resume, and it is important experience for any managing position (like Helpdesk Manager)
      4. Email address in your resume should be personal, not business (unless you are owner os CCWtech)

      Note: Are your jobs at Police and CCW really overlap from 2008-2014 as it states in you resume?

      1 - Thanks.
      2 - Ok, adding some to my resume
      3 - Noted and added
      4 - I am the owner

      And yes, there is overlap.

      I know there is a tough market right now... I have only had 2 places interview me...

      On one, I talked to the hiring manager, it was odd, she told me that most of her interviews only went 20 minutes but we talked for about an hour... she told me she wasn't sure she could give me enough money to make me want the job... Which I replied to not count me out because of that. She even asked that if I was given an offer and turned it down if she could pass my resume along to other managers there for higher paying jobs, which I said yes, but told her again not to count me out for this job... 2.5 weeks later after hearing nothing I got the standard "We have moved on without you" email...

      I'm still applying and will try with these new tweaks and see what happens.
