@IRJ I know right. The powers that be on the gov network said they won't allow it.

@Dashrender separate networks. (gov/commercial)

@scottalanmiller we don't use ConnectPro, we use Trendnet TK-214i's. I only mentioned ConnectPro because as I understand, they pretty much run the DDM game. Forget I asked though because after some product reviews, and a look at the price tags, it wasn't going to happen even in the worse case scenario.

I figured out that the CAC reader keyboards were present in every case so I've done away with those for the people affected most frequently by it. So far so good, but time will tell.

@scottalanmiller Elaborate if you would, kind sir.

I'm having some issues with many of our KVM's not waking machines up. A full reset of the KVM is necessary to rectify the situation.

I've tried Uninstalling/reinstalling USB drivers, adjusting the settings for USB sleep and the like in Power settings, but no success.

One of the computers is not allowed to have the sleep settings adjusted because of security stuff, so that's not an option.

I've read about the issue being linked to our KVM's being emulated instead of Dynamic Device Mapping?

Is anyone out there using ConnectPro KVM's? With the presence of DDM, do they truly not have this issue?

With the issue being re-enumeration of USB ports, I'm wondering if anyone out there has written a computer wake re-enumeration script or anything fancy to deal with this issue. Please if anyone knows of such a thing or a possible workaround let me know. Going to play around in Windows Task Scheduler for a bit and see if anything is possible that way...

@scottalanmiller lmao, thanks Scott

So since I've been in the IT field I've encountered mix opinions of both Windows 10 and Windows 7. I know people who swear Windows 7 is better than Windows 10, and visa versa. And even recently have seen jokes about Windows 10 being the worst.

Well, our organization recently started moving to Windows 10 six months ago (super late I know) and I'm natively an Apple whore so Windows 10 was new to me as an operating system. Now that I have Windows 10 at my desk, I'm not too sure what all the fuss is about. I really like the GUI and I've not encountered anything that hinders me from doing day to day IT stuff (then again I'm not doing anything too advanced) What's your logic on why one is better than the other? Anybody still running Windows 7 by choice?

From what I found it's a common phrase in the UK that means "and there you have it"

Yeah, there you have it.

Honestly going to start saying this every chance I get and see how many people I can confuse.

@pete-s "Bob's your uncle". . . Huh?

Currently googling what this means.

I did that too, I've never heard that before:
