Excellent post, thanks for the update Dustin.
The Xen Orchestra install script should be a sticky on this forum so its easy to find I think.

We all love Nextcloud here at ML..

@scottalanmiller - Do you have the paid supported version of Zimbra? and how are you syncing with mobiles/tablets, you using striaght imap or activesync

Will you be trying this yourself @scottalanmiller ?

It's defiantly taking my cpu for a sprint.....

Ouch, just before the GDPR comes in force as well.

Cant beat an egg for breakfast, especially poached

Has anyone tried this on a raspberry Pi 3: https://winterminal.com/#wtware

NetApp is presenting and has nothing to say. Buzz buzz buzz time to market, stuff on horizon, blah blah

I'm not sure that the speaker even knows what products he makes.

lol, sounds like it's going well.

Wow, what's this, never seen this project before...Looks awesome.

I didn't read the article, but do we know the environment that this happened in? Was it Windows, Linux, Unix?

Pretty much all NHS machines are windows based.

the WannaCry ransomware was patched back on march the 14th by Microsoft, so If systems were updated this could of been prevented...this does stress how important security updates really are..

Many companies are apparently being hit, it's another form of ransomware doing it's rounds, I've always said NHS and Emergency systems should be private LAN only with no internet access.

I wonder how much that that would protect a network so large.

I think it would reduce risk a lot, obviously not 100% though.

The Nextcloud team are doing so well, development seems to be flying along.

During the weekend I have setup a small VPS for monitoring network latency, I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 Server edition, I have assigned 1GB Ram and just 15gb hdd to this machine.

Multiple locations can be monitored, and alerts can be setup, here is what the interface looks like:

If you would like to setup SmokePing, please just follow these steps:

Setup a VPS, specs don't need to be high. [e.g 1gb ram]

Install Ubuntu Server 16.04 - https://www.ubuntu.com/download/server
Once installed:

I changed my NIC from DCHP to a static IP Address, eg:

sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

#My Interface File, My interface is eth0, yours may be different, you can find this out by typing "IP Addr" at the bash CLI

# The Primary network Interface
auto eth0
Iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.202
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.254
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

Once completed I then restarted the networking service

sudo service networking restart

You should now have a static IP address for your VPS, you can confirm by typing: Ifconfig
I then updated my machine:

sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y

Once this was completed I restarted the machine:

sudo reboot

Once rebooted if we log back in, we are now ready to install smokeping:

sudo apt-get install smokeping

Once installed:

# Enable the config and mod_cgi
sudo a2enconf smokeping
sudo a2enmod cgid
#Reload the apache config
service apache2 reload

You should now be ready to edit the targets for Smokeping:

sudo nano /etc/smokeping/config.d/Targets

Here is an example of my Targets file below, if you would like furthur help with your Targets file please visit: http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/doc/smokeping_examples.en.html

+ Menu
menu = Google
title = Google Trace

++ Google
host = google.co.uk

+ GWMenu
menu = Gateway
title = Home Gw

++ Gateway
title = BT GW
host = 192.168.1.254

I then edited the pathnames file so sendmail points to the senmail instance or to a valid file otherwise smokeping won't run.

sudo nano /etc/smokeping/config.d/pathnames

sendmail = /bin/false

Install FASTCGI

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-fcgid

Finally give smokeping and apache a quick restart:

sudo service smokeping restart
sudo service apache2 reload

You should now have a working smokeping Installation, you can access smokeping here:

http://Your.Server.IP/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi

Have a look at these: https://www.ipvanish.com/en/ - I haven't personally used them but I have seen good reviews inside a computer mag.

@Tim_G said in Windows Store and XBOX Ban Emulators:

Still doesn't compare to the nazi Apple app store.

I love that comment, so true as well

@scottalanmiller no windows Servers?
